“That’s good. Your company has one less black sheep.”
Li Lin smiled bitterly and echoed, “Mr. Lin is right.”
He had the ability to influence their investments.
The higher-ups probably wouldn’t reject his request.
“Mr. Lin, let’s talk about the live stream for now. I’ll report your thoughts first and try to get back to you as soon as possible.”
Li Lin felt that this matter had to be dealt with as soon as possible.
If the higher-ups really agreed with his idea, they had to give him as much time as possible. Otherwise, they wouldn’t be able to find any products to sell.
“Alright, I’ll wait for your news.”
After hanging up, Lin Yi returned to the study.
She placed her hands behind her head and placed her feet on the desk.
Although there were many things that he needed to take care of, there was not much he could do right now.
Regarding the live stream, he had to wait for Li Lin’s news before he could take the next step.
On the other hand, when it came to Tonghua Electronics, it shouldn’t be a big problem for the time being.
However, at this time, the person called Zhang Haiyong probably already knew about Wang Yaxin and Sun Yongming’s situation.
He just didn’t know what he would do next, or who he would find to be his next pawn.
Therefore, all Lin Yi could do was wait. He would deal with whatever came his way. He could not be anxious.
The only thing that worried Lin Yi was Mitsui Financial Group.
That woman, Caie Mitsui, was too scheming. Who knew what she would do in the future?
Moreover, with Mitsui Group’s ability, their next move would not be insignificant. He had to pay more attention to this.
After sorting out the matters in front of him, Lin Yi turned on his computer and started working on the Chip 3.0 technology.
It was not until one o’clock in the afternoon that he finally rested.
Furthermore, he had to go to Ji Qingyan’s house for dinner tonight. He could not go empty-handed, so he had to buy something in advance.
Although they had met before, this was considered an official visit.
He had to be more serious.
Ji Qingyan’s parents and grandfather were staying at the East Lake Villa.
Although a long time had passed since then, Lin Yi still remembered the three of them.
Ji Qingyan’s grandfather was called Ji Yongqing. He liked antique calligraphy and paintings, so it was definitely not wrong for him to buy something like this as a gift.
Ji Qingyan’s mother was called Song Minghui. She was a very homely and virtuous woman. In some ways, Ji Qingyan was very similar to her, so jade accessories should be very suitable for her.
Her father’s name was Ji Antai, and he seemed to enjoy watching live streams. Why not give him some fishballs in that case?
After making up his mind, Lin Yi drove to Times Square.
Previously, when he came here, he had spotted some jade artifacts, so he knew to come straight here this time around.
Lin Yi went to the southwest corner of the first floor and stopped in front of the counter of a shop called Yu Yuan.
“Sir, are you buying it for yourself or giving it to someone else? I can give you some recommendations,” a tall male salesperson said.
“I’m gifting it to my future mother-in-law. Help me find a suitable one.”
“Then what’s your budget?” The male salesperson smiled and said, “Although I’m a salesperson, I always gift these things to my mother-in-law as well.”
Lin Yi smiled. “Then we’re on the same page, but I don’t have a limit. As long as it’s nice and appropriate.”
“No limit?”
The male salesperson was stunned for a moment. “But the highest priced accessory in our shop is above five million yuan, so…”
“It’s fine. Just show it to me boldly. If I like it, I’ll buy it.”
Everyone else in the shop looked at Lin Yi strangely.
Was this a gift from a rich second-generation heir to his mother-in-law?
“Then I suggest that we choose this ice jade bracelet. The price is 820,000 yuan. It’s very suitable for middle-aged women to wear,” the male salesperson introduced.
“I’ll take this.” Lin Yi handed his bank over. The password is 000000. Oh right, I’m a diamond member here. I think I can get a 30% discount.”
This was because only those who had spent 10 million yuan could become diamond members.
How many things did he previously buy?
“Alright, sir. Please wait a moment.” The male salesperson handed Lin Yi’s card to the finance department and prepared to help Lin Yi pack it.
“Sir, since you’ve already spent 10 million here, it means you should come to Times Square often.”
“I come by occasionally.”
“You spent 10 million just by occasionally coming by?”
“When I bought a watch, I was given a diamond membership.”
Subconsciously, the male salesperson looked at Lin Yi’s wrist.
To his surprise, Lin Yi was wearing a Richard Mille. He felt dizzy.
...
Fortunately, he was very polite just now. Otherwise, he would have offended a rich person.
“Oh right, I wanted to ask you something. Is there a place nearby that sells antiques?” Lin Yi asked, preparing to pick out a gift for Ji Qingyan’s grandfather.
“Yes, sir. Go out through the east gate and turn right. There’s a new literary shop there. It’s quite big.”
“Thanks.”
After buying the jade bracelet, Lin Yi went to pick a belt for Ji Antai. Although he liked to watch live streams, he couldn’t give him fishballs on its own.
After everything was prepared, Lin Yi followed the male salesperson’s instructions and arrived at the literary shop on the right side of the east door.
He looked up and saw that the plaque read Ancient Arts Pavilion. The shop’s decorations were antique, and many people were strolling around inside.
Lin Yi pushed the door open and entered. The male boss tilted his head and looked at him without saying anything. He sipped his tea and played with the bracelet in his hand.
In this industry, the main customer base were all middle-aged people. The purchasing power of young people was insufficient, so there was no need to be too concerned about these types of customers.
Therefore, the shop owner didn’t pay much attention to customers below the age of 40.
Lin Yi didn’t care about this. He wouldn’t be used to being treated this way.
...
However, some of the women in the shop looked at Lin Yi.
This young man was really handsome.
The size of the shop was not small. There were many types of goods sold here, but most of them were porcelain and wood carvings. Most of them were unique, and it would not be embarrassing to offer them as gifts.
In the end, Lin Yi took a fancy to a bracelet and prepared to give it to Old Ji.
“Boss, how much is this bracelet?”
“320,000 yuan. It’s made by Huang Lihua from Hainan. There aren’t many of these in the world.”
“320,000 yuan? Isn’t that a little expensive?”
Because of the sage’s wisdom, Lin Yi knew a little about this.
The material was relatively new and there were no scars on it. It could be considered precious, but definitely not top-grade.
320,000 yuan was a little expensive for this.
“If you don’t understand, don’t comment casually. If you think it’s too expensive, you can go to another shop. Our goods are all around this price.”
‘Are you saying that I can’t afford it?’
“Young man, it seems you’ve taken a liking to this bracelet.”
The person who spoke was a middle-aged woman. She was wearing long boots and a beige windbreaker. Her clothes and figure were not bad, but her appearance was indeed average.
“It looks pretty good.”
“No problem. If you like it, I’ll give it to you.” The middle-aged woman said, “Do you have time later to have a meal together?”
Hearing this, the men in the shop started sizing Lin Yi up.
A rich woman wanted to spend 320,000 yuan to get him!
Damn it, being good-looking meant that he had an advantage!
“Sister, you’re already so old, don’t have any ideas about me. I already have a girlfriend.” Lin Yi smiled.
