As the uncle of a newborn child, wasn't it a slap in the face for him to only take out such a small gift?
For the entire morning, his cheerful face was replaced by a frown.
Yang Huai was busy greeting the guests. When he had some free time, he went to the door to smoke. Seeing him drooping his head, he asked, "What's wrong? Who provoked you? Don't look so sad. "
Wu Boxiong said, "Sigh, this is so embarrassing. You didn't tell me that your uncle and the others are so rich. Look at what they gave me, and then look at what I gave them. I want to find a hole and hide in it."
Yang Huai smiled and said, "Compared to my uncle and the others?"
Wu Boxiong said, "Of course not. They gave me a mansion and I couldn't afford it even if I sold myself. I say, what do your family's friends do? They're so extravagant and rich. They can't be anything less than a million."
Yang Huai looked him up and down and smiled. "You're quite ambitious."
Wu Boxiong was puzzled. "What's wrong?"
Yang Huai said, "To tell you the truth, compared to the people who came today, my family is poor. You can pick anyone in this house today and they're better off than my family."
"Better off than your family?" Wu Boxiong couldn't believe it. He had seen with his own eyes how terrifying the Yang family was. All the so-called big families in Hong Kong had to give face to the Yang family.
He believed that one or two of them were better than the Yang family, but he felt that it was an exaggeration to say that all of them were better than the Yang family.
He also understood what Yang Huai was implying. If the Yang family couldn't compare, then he, Wu Boxiong, wouldn't even think about comparing.
He was just asking to be humiliated.
Yang Huai smiled and said, "My mouth is dry today. I don't have time. I'll tell you in detail when I have time."
Wu Boxiong pouted and said, "You're lying, right?"
Yang Huai smiled and said, "What's there to lie about? Why would I want to boost others' morale and diminish my own?"
He pointed at He Zhou, who was playing with a Stone Puppet not far away. "Do you see that kid? They are one of the top ten logistics companies in the world. Of course, this is not the best. Their best is logistics real estate, which is warehouses. A few days ago, they acquired Asia's largest logistics real estate company, Prolos, for 7.9 billion euros. In one fell swoop, they became the world's largest logistics real estate company. Needless to say, they own 70% of the domestic market. Many express delivery companies and logistics companies use their warehouses. They are also very powerful overseas. For example, America's FedEx and UPS also use their warehouses. "
Sometimes, he was extremely envious. This was earning rent while lying down!
His father was still lacking in knowledge. He only knew how to do papermaking, building materials, and furniture.
After he took over, he also wanted to change it, but the ship was too big, and it was not easy to turn around. Many things were not as simple as he thought.
When he carefully asked for his uncle's opinion, his uncle asked him what level his core business had reached in the industry, but he couldn't answer.
Then, his uncle told him not to casually expand his business. Instead, he should think more about whether his main business and core business were solid and whether he had become the first in the industry.
If not, then he should continue to do it.
After his uncle poured cold water on him, he was a little discouraged. But when he thought about it carefully, he agreed with his uncle. He could only focus more on his main business. If he did not diversify well, he would die.
"7.9 billion euros?" Wu Poxiong was a little shaken. Money was really just a number in the mouth of the rich.
If he didn't understand his brother-in-law's ability, he would have laughed out loud when he heard such arrogant words in such a remote village.
But his brother-in-law said it seriously.
He Zhou said, "To them, this amount of money is nothing. Even if they don't have it, they have other places to borrow money. I even borrowed 500 million euros."
Wu Poxiong said, "What if I can't return it? It's easy to borrow money now, but it's not easy to collect it. I heard that the economic situation is not good either. I was too careless. "
It was as if he was the one who spent the money. He felt the pain.
Yang Huai smiled and said, "Sigh, I don't dare to say too much because I'm young. But with my family, even if they have nothing now, even if they start all over again, they would still be much stronger than you and me."
He had a kind of confidence that his uncle was omnipotent.
As long as his uncle was around, none of their families could go bankrupt easily.
Wu Poxiong said, "That's too dangerous."
Seeing He Zhou walking towards them, he slowly stopped talking.
He Zhou said, "You're a father today. Don't you want to drink more?"
Yang Huai smiled and said, "Is there a place for me to sit in the central room? Why don't you sit down and accompany them for a few more drinks? "
He Zhou said, "My mom's here. I don't have to sit at the table."
Actually, she didn't have to come today. It was mainly because she had just borrowed money from the Yang family a few days ago. Coincidentally, her grandpa had passed away, so she hadn't had the time to come and thank them.
She couldn't help but feel jealous. She was doing business that was worth hundreds of millions, billions, or even tens of billions, and she was still worrying about living expenses of a thousand yuan. Wasn't that too embarrassing?
Yang Huai said, "Have you seen my son? Is he handsome?"
He Zhou said, "In any case, he'll definitely be better than you in the future. You look a little like my Uncle Li. It's true that a nephew looks like an uncle."
Yang Huai said, "You're good-looking. Get yourself a wife first. Otherwise, don't talk about this nonsense. Do you want me to introduce you to someone?"
He Zhou said, "You should rest. I don't trust your foresight at all. You don't have to look for a partner for me."
The people in the room started to call for dinner. Yang Xuewen first invited Wu Poxiong to the living room, then turned around and pulled He Zhou to the big table. He looked at his mother's expression and knew that he definitely couldn't sit at this table today.
Just as Yang Xuewen pushed him to his seat, before he could even sit properly, he ran to another table and squeezed with a bunch of old ladies.
And his mother was the only old lady sitting at a man's table.
Wu Poxiong was sitting well at first, but when he saw He Zhou run away, he couldn't sit still anymore. Although he was thick-skinned and a bit of a hooligan, he still understood that he didn't deserve to sit at this table.
And he seemed to be sitting at the main seat?
If it wasn't for his brother-in-law's words, he might have been sitting there with a clear conscience.
As the saying goes, the ignorant are fearless.
Now, he didn't dare to sit.
Just as he was about to get up, he was held down by Li He who was beside him.
Li He smiled and said, "Sit, don't stand on ceremony."
Wu Poxiong smiled sheepishly and said, "I'm a junior. There's no reason for me to sit here. No way, no way."
Li He said, "You're a guest. A guest has to sit here. There's no point in pushing around."
"I heard from Yang Huai that you can drink." Li Long personally got up to pour him a drink. No matter what, this was his niece-in-law's brother. In terms of etiquette, he couldn't be careless.
