Chapter 34: Dowry (1/2)
After getting the wedding photo, the wedding day is near. Although the Qi family did not want to interact with the Xue family, the wedding was imminent, and they still had to get together on that day to discuss the business.
This ”fair business” is actually a discussion of how the two parties gave gifts to the newlyweds. To put it bluntly, it is a gift and dowry. This name is actually not suitable for same-sex couples, and at this time the custom of dowry for bridesmaid is gradually disappearing, but the marriage of family children is not indispensable, so the same name is also used.
The number of wedding gifts and dowries given by the family tycoons are often very alarming. At the same time, the ancient gifts will also be used to retain documents and transfer contracts, etc., as evidence. Marriage and dowry now do not need to cross the ten-mile long street as in ancient times, but human comparison and vanity are unchanged, so there will be unwritten rules of publicly offering gifts and dowry at the wedding . The number of celebrities on the one hand shows the financial strength of the two married people, on the one hand, it also allows people to see how important the new couple is in their respective families. Although some families don’t like this kind of form, but when the gun shoots the bird, you don’t do what everyone else does, it’s easy to make people feel that you are not in a group, even if you can’t do anything on the surface, the rumours in the background are It's enough to be boring. Therefore, one more thing is worse than one less, that is, to make a list at the wedding, most of the family simply follow the trend. And there are indeed quite a few who do this with vanity, such as Xue Li, who is delighted with the thighs of the Qi family.
He looked at the offer list given by Qi's family, almost happily shut his mouth, and wanted to go out and tell the world now.
The Qi family has a lot of real money, and it gave eight nines in cash alone, which is actually 100 million, but only one piece was reduced for the sake of morals. There are also three shops, located in the most prosperous business districts in Beijing, and it is not a small shop with dozens of hundreds of square meters, but a large-scale shop with more than two hundred square meters. The market price adds up to two. With 300 million, the annual rent can be collected by tens of millions. Even knowing that because Qi's home is for real estate, the cost price must be much lower than the market price, Xue Li couldn't help but sigh for Qi's generosity.
However, this is not the main event. The thing that makes Xue Li most eye-catching in the ceremony is another thing-Qi's 5% share dividend.
There are many industries in Qi's industry, but they are separated on the bright side. The main ones are Shi'an Real Estate and Huaan Energy. In addition, there are some other network companies and food companies. Except for Shi An Real Estate which is publicly listed, the others are wholly owned by Qijia Private. The 5% given to Qi Zi by Qi's family is all the companies controlled by Qi's privately-owned company, plus the part held by Qi's in Shi'an Real Estate, the combined 5%. It seems that only 5% seems to be very small, and can only take dividends and can not participate in decision-making or arbitrarily transfer, but with the huge industry of Qi family as the base, this 5% is enough to match the profit of the entire Xue family.
Xue Li couldn't wait to go through the transfer procedures immediately. It was better to sign him than Shu Zimu. However, the restraint on the face is still necessary. After reading the list of gifts, Xue Li smiled with a breeze and pretended to be polite: ”This is really too kind to kiss your family. Where can Zi Mu want such things in your family.”
The Qi family still came out with Bai Xinlan. She smiled and said, ”Marriage is a big event. It is estimated that this will be the only time in Ayan's life. These things are not many. The Qi family's daughter-in-law is given according to this. . Besides, I also like Zi Mu's child. In addition to these, I and his dad will add more in private.” Bai Xinlan looked at Qi Yan as a junior sitting with Shu Zimu and listened, intentionally saying: ”Ayan should have something else to give to Zi Mu. I think he secretly prepared a gift before.”
”...” Qi Yan, who was inexplicably exposed to Chiyu, looked helplessly at his teasing mother and turned his attention to Shu Zimu. When he saw the other party looking a little surprised and curious, he felt a little embarrassed. This time, he quickly looked away and pretended that nothing had happened.
Qi Yan couldn't help but chuckled in his heart, and said that who let him find it bad, but let his mother discover it, this time certainly won't achieve the effect he wanted before. Fortunately, Bai Xinlan is only a half-knowledge, and it is not entirely clear what the gift is, but how much Shu Zimu can still be a little surprised by then? Qi Yan thought so, but decided to find another gift.
Since it is a pursuit of people, there are always too many gifts?
Qi Yan did not intend to say that other people did not want to go after it, and the topic quickly turned to the next one.
The gifts that Bai Xinlan and Qi Yan each want to add are obviously not intended to be put on the list of gifts, and they seem to be given in private. With the generosity of the Qi family, those who don't know how valuable it will be. There was no way to immediately see what happened, Xue Li was regretful and heartbroken. But when I think about it, Shu Zimu's biological father should come to see and even use it. It is reasonable for him to use it. If he gave Shu Zimu, wouldn't it be the Xue family?
Thinking about it this way, the smile on Xue Li's face was even more ardent. At the same time, he thought of the dowry he had originally discussed with Yao Yue to prepare for Shu Zimu. Although the Xue family and the Qi family are incomparable, they have to be passable in the face, otherwise they seem to neglect the Qi family. So Xue Li said with a smile: ”We have already prepared Zi Mu's dowry, so we took a list to show my relatives.” While giving Yao Yue a look, he made a gesture without trace.
Years of husband and wife, Yao Yue immediately understood what he meant, this is to add more to Shu Zimu's dowry. Yao Yue couldn't help but scolded her heart, but on the surface she got up smiling and went upstairs to get the list.
As soon as the Qi family's wedding gift came out, Yao Yue was happy and jealous. Happy because she and Xue Li felt that the offer was for Shu Zimu, but they must have belonged to the Xue family. Jealousy was because the wild species Shu Zimu actually got a different look from the Qi family, which can be seen from the offer. Pay attention, not to mention Bai Xinlan and Qi Yan's initiative.
While Yao Yue insulted Shu Zimu for **** luck, she felt that if she did not take Shu Zimu to that banquet, Shu Zimu could not be picked by the Qi's family, so they should get these gifts from the Xue family. The dowry set by Shu Zimu has already made Yao Yue feel distressed, and now Xue Li actually wants her to add to her face!
Yao Yue turned over the dowry list dumbly. After a moment of contemplation, she finally added a few pens unpredictably.
In the end, Bai Xinlan saw that the number of dowries seemed to be similar to that offered by the Qi family, but the quality had all dropped by one layer. One digit less cash, three houses, and Xue's dividends.
Not to mention cash, housing prices are not as good as shops. The three sets of locations given by the Xue family are also not very good. Although the area is large, the value is actually much lower than that given by the Qi family. Needless to say, Xue's share dividends are totally different from Qi's. Moreover, the Qi family gave 5%, but the Xue family only gave 3%.
However, the Xue family is far worse than the Qi family. It is not as good as the Qi family's wealth. It is normal that at least this dowry list is justified.
The Qi family itself does not expect anything from the Xue family. Shu Zimu also told Qi Yan before that he didn’t really want Qi’s wedding gift or Xue family’s dowry. It’s just that the family’s marriage process was not his final decision. Therefore, Bai Xinlan did not show dissatisfaction at this time, so after checking with Aunt Zhang, she and Xue Li agreed on the time for registration and property transfer.
These things will belong to Shu Zimu on the bright side, but after knowing that Qi Jiaran gave back 5% of the shares, he guessed that Xue Li and Yao Yue could not hold back the idea of not playing such a large asset of.
Sure enough, Bai Xinlan and Qi Yan walked away that day, and it was not long before Shu Zimu was called to the study by Xue Li, and Yao Yue was also there. Both of them had an unprecedented kindness. Looking at Shu Zimu's eyes was like watching immediately Just jump into the gold ingot in your pocket.
Xue Li first gave Shu Zimu some false words, and expressed his dissatisfaction with his son who was about to get married and lived out. Then he saw the poor figure: ”Zi Mu, you are only 18 years old, take With so many wedding gifts and dowry, my dad feels not at ease. Do you know how to manage money?”
Shu Zimu sneered in his heart, but made an unprepared look, pretending to say naively: ”Yes. Shops and houses are not just rented out, I can only pay dividends without doing anything, and then buy it in cash. Two suites, anyway, the houses in Beijing are not afraid of losses.”
Xue Liwen immediately gave him a reproachful look, ”How can this be done! Dividends are a lot of money every year. How can I buy a house all the time, or I have to make other investments, otherwise it will be wasted.”
Yao Yue also agreed with a smile and said: ”Zi Mu is still a child after all, and he doesn't understand this. It would be nice to think of buying a house.” Then he turned around and said, ”Besides, he didn't understand that there is still your father.” You must help him, Zi Mu will not manage the funds.”
Xue Li pretended to be reminded by Yao Yue at this time and deliberately thought for a while and then said: ”Well, yes, anyway, I am also a father, I really have to control it.” He said to Shu Zimu: ”Zi Mu, you will not Financial management, how about your dad looking for a professional financial consultant to help you? Such a large asset can't be sloppy. Are you trying to learn screenwriting? Not interested in these financial estimates, then dad will do it for you , The money you make is yours, okay?”
After listening to Xue Li and Yao Yue's singing together, they wanted to take away this large sum of money. Shu Zimu continued to pretend to be unaware, saying: ”No more trouble, Qi Yan has promised to help me manage those dividends, the rent will be With flowers, there is no need to find any financial adviser.”
Xue Li and Yao Yue sank at once when they heard these words. The two listened to Shu Zimu's trust and thanked Qi Yan for her tone. No wonder Qijia is so generous. 5% of the shares are given and given. It turned out to be such an idea. Shu Zimu is also really stupid. He does not believe that his blood-related family members take care of such a large asset for others. This takes care of it. Doesn't everything go into other people's pockets? However, Shu Zimu still took the advantage of himself, as if he was asking Qi Yan for help, Xue Li almost wanted to yell out loudly, but thought of the huge dividend, he still gasped for two moments and anger temporarily Pressed down.
