Chapter 579: The Grand Transfer of Shares
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Wen Xinya first headed to the cemetery to offer prayers to her late mother before proceeding to the bank together with Old Mr. Mo.
When their car pulled over at the entrance of the bank, they were suddenly greeted with numerous cameras flas.h.i.+ng in their faces. A bunch of reporters swarmed towards them, though they kept a distance away, for fear of offending the formidable Old Mr. Mo.
Wen Xinya alighted from the car before opening the door for Old Mr. Mo and helping him out of the car.
Old Mr. Mo ignored the continuous questions from the reporters and brought Wen Xinya into the living room.
They arrived at the VIP guest room to see that everyone that had to be there was already present.
Apart from the top lawyers from Extraordinary Law Firm, there were also several other authoritative members from the notary public. Of course, there were also several other respectable and reputable members of society who were there to witness the transfer.
Old Mr. Zhong and Old Mr. Du were present as well. There were also those whom she had only heard of but never met in the past.
The reporters seemed to have gotten a great shock and started snapping photos of them frantically. Reason being, all of the people present were reputable elders who rarely showed their faces.
Old Mr. Mo said slowly, “Thank you, everyone, for taking the time out of your busy schedules to witness my granddaughter, Wen Xinya, inheriting my a.s.sets.”
Zhong Yifeng said, “Haha! Old Mo, you’re being too formal. We’ve known each other for years. There’s no need to talk about these.”
Du s.h.i.+nan chimed in. “Old Zhong is right. Stop it with that literary jargon. It makes my head hurt. We’ll be here whenever you need us.”
Everyone joined in the chatter and the atmosphere became lively.
The bank personnel then unlocked a few VIP vaults in the room while the security officers stopped the reporters from entering or snapping any photos.
Ancient books, antiques, calligraphy, jade pieces, gold and silver jewelry, gems, rare wood, and brocade… were all laid out one by one. The jewelry appraiser then authenticated the items and recorded their value.
The members of the notary public then snapped photos of the certificate of authentication and saved them.
The lawyer then allowed Wen Xinya to sign the agreement of transfer.
The entire process was smooth and successful.
Actually, Old Mr. Mo had already hired a professional authenticator to authenticate the items. What he did today was merely a formal process.
At about ten o’clock in the morning, they counted the items, excluding the ancient books and wood which were invaluable gems. They then tabulated the values, which amounted to a total of 1.5 billion yuan.
Old Mr. Mo then bequeathed some of his monetary a.s.sets to her.
The total value of the items that Old Mr. Mo had given her amounted to more than 500 million yuan.
At about eleven o’clock, the process of the transfer was completed.
The lawyers then read Mo Yunyao’s will and explained clearly all of the terms listed, after which they then read out the terms of the a.s.set transfer agreement. At last, the rest of the witnesses signed their names on the agreement and stamped their thumbprints.
After the agreements were signed, the precious items and jewelry all belonged to her.
Wen Xinya stared at her red-ink-stained thumb, feeling as if it was all too surreal.
Old Mr. Mo gazed at Wen Xinya with a complicated mix of emotions, though he had high hopes for her. “Xinya… I hope that I can really push you to success.”
