Lin Pingchao was really irritated. In order to please Lin Xiaotian and change his image in the old man's mind, he carefully prepared two gifts, but he did not expect that they were all ruined by Qin Haodong.
Now it seemed that even if his two things were intact, they could not compare with the Jade Chicken sent by Lin Momo. The value was more than ten times lower.
In this way, his position in the old man's mind would not change, on the contrary, it would not be as good as before. It was because of this that he decided to risk it all and shout.
Lin Zhigao quickly stopped him and scolded, "Today is your grandfather's birthday. What are you shouting for? Is it fair or not? "
Lin Pingchao did not restrain himself at all, still shouting, "Unfair, this is unfair."
Everyone became silent. Lin Xiaotian looked at Lin Pingchao with a gloomy face and asked, "What do you think is unfair?"
Lin Pingchao said, "My cousin is the president of Lin's Group, in charge of the whole group's resources, of course she can choose all kinds of good things, so she can find such a high-quality yellow jade, and find such a skilled master to carve it. If I were the president of the group, I would definitely prepare a better gift for grandpa."
After listening to his words, Lin Xiaotian's face eased a little and he said, "The value of the gift is not important. I know you have the filial piety. There is no fair or not."
Many people thought that Lin Pingchao would stop when it was good, but he said again, "Grandpa, this is unfair!
I am also a descendant of the Lin Family, and I am the only male of the third generation of the Lin Family. In terms of age, I am only one year younger than my cousin. In terms of education, I am not inferior to her at all. In terms of ability, I am not inferior to her. Why should she be the president? Why can't I be the president of the Lin Family? "
"How dare you!" Lin Xiaotian slapped the table and said angrily, "When it is your turn to talk about family affairs!"
Lin Pingchao was extremely afraid of the old man, but today he made up his mind and cried, "Grandpa, I just want a fair competition. I just want to compete with Sister Tang to see who is more suitable to be the president of the Lin family."
Lin Xiaotian was about to get angry. An old man in his sixties next to him said, "Elder brother, in fact, Ping Chao is right. A few years ago, he was still young, and it doesn't matter if he is not the president. But now Ping Chao is old, and there should be a fair competition."
The old man who spoke was Lin Xiaotian's cousin, Lin Xiaofeng. He was also a direct descendant of the Lin family and had a great say in the Lin family.
Then, another old man said, "That's right. I think Ping Chao is quite capable. We should give him a chance to show off."
After that, the direct descendants of the Lin family, who were of the same generation as Lin Xiaotian, began to speak for Lin Pingchao. Finally, an old man in his eighties stood up and said tremblingly, "Xiaotian, no matter what, Ping Chao is also a man of our Lin family. Although Momo is also good, she is a woman after all. She will get married sooner or later. I think you'd better give Ping Chao a chance at the right time."
Lin Xiaotian could ignore what others said, but this old man was so senior that he had to call him Seventh Uncle. He was the only one in the previous generation of the Lin family.
By now, he had seen that all this was planned by Lin Pingchao, or there would not be so many people standing up on this occasion.
Lin Xiaotian was suddenly in a dilemma. As the current master of the Lin family, he must be fair and just. Now so many people stood up to speak for Lin Pingchao. If he did not listen, it would be arbitrary and unfair. If he forced him to change his mind, not only would the dignity of the master be offended, but it would also be unfair to Lin Momo, who had always been diligent.
Just when he was in a dilemma, Lin Momo stood up and said, "Grandpa, I also hope to compete fairly with my cousin. If Ping Chao is really capable of being the president, I'm willing to quit."
"All right then." Lin Xiaotian sighed. Lin Momo could take the initiative to propose a fair competition, which was totally sensible, which made it much easier for him to be the master of the family.
He said to Lin Pingchao, "How do you want to compete?"
Lin Pingchao was overjoyed when Lin Xiaotian agreed. What he did just now was not impulsive, but had been planned for a long time, including those elders of the Lin family who just spoke for him. They were all persuaded by him in advance, and some even sent very heavy gifts.
Seeing that he had succeeded, he controlled his excitement and said, "Our Lin's Group has always been mainly engaged in the jade industry. I hope that my cousin and I can open a store without relying on the strength of Lin's Group. At that time, the one who makes the most profit will be the most suitable master of the Lin family."
Lin Xiaofeng said, "Brother, this is a good idea. If you can run a jade store well, you can prove that you can lead the whole Linzhi Group well."
Lin Xiaotian turned to Lin Momo and said, "Momo, what do you think of this?"
"I think it's good."
Lin Momo agreed without hesitation.
During this time, she had had enough of Lin Pingchao's constant harassment. She hoped that she could completely cut off Lin Pingchao's hope in this way. If Lin Pingchao could really win, she would be willing to give up the position of president.
"Then carry out according to this plan, but for the sake of fairness, the rules still need to be refined." Lin Xiaotian thought for a moment and said, "Our Lin family has recently opened a new branch in Jiangnan City. It hasn't opened yet. For the time being, we will give it to you as a platform for fair competition.
The store will be divided into two parts from the middle. Each of you can run your own jade industry there. The time limit is 8 o 'clock in the morning and 5 o' clock in the evening. The one with the highest turnover will be the winner.
From today on, you go back to prepare, and the store will officially open in three days. "
Lin Xiaofeng nodded and said, "This is the fairest way, but we need a fair person to collect the money in the store, so as to avoid disputes on the turnover."
According to his idea, he wanted to be the notary, but Lin Xiaotian had already seen that his cousin was partial to Lin Pingchao, so he didn't give him the chance at all. He said, "The problem of the notary is very easy to solve. There is only one cashier in the store, and the goods sold on both sides will be collected uniformly. Zhigao and Zhiyuan will supervise the cashier together, so there will be no problem."
His idea was really clever. Although Lin Zhiyuan and Lin Zhigao were brothers, they naturally preferred their own children, so the two of them would be at the cashier, and naturally there would be no difference of a penny.
Lin Zhiyuan said, "Although this method is good, there is still a problem, that is, how to prevent the two sides from using their own money to buy their own goods, so it becomes a competition of two people's financial resources, and no one can see whose sales ability is stronger."
Lin Pingchao's heart suddenly jumped. He did have such a plan before. Even if he couldn't compare with Lin Momo in sales, he would be able to win when he used his own money to buy his own goods. He didn't expect that his uncle would say it first.
Lin Xiaotian thought for a moment and said, "This is easy. All the sales of both sides on that day will be collected by the group. If they have money and are willing to donate to the group, then I will be more willing to accept it."
As the saying goes, old ginger is spicier. Although this method couldn't 100% eliminate fraud, it had a great restrictive effect. Think about it, no one could take a lot of money out of their pocket, and finally all the money went into the pocket of the group.
Speaking of this, he turned to Lin Momo and Lin Pingchao and said, "Do you have any objection?"
This opportunity was fought for by Lin Pingchao with all his efforts, so naturally he would not object. He quickly said, "I have no objection."
Lin Momo said, "I will listen to grandpa."
Things came to an end here, and then the birthday party began to continue.
In the afternoon, Lin Xiaotian's birthday party ended, and Lin Momo and Qin Haodong returned to Lin's Villa together.
After the little fellow entered the door, she rode on Damao and ran out to play. Lin Zhiyuan said to Lin Momo, "Momo, in fact, you can completely refuse today, grandpa will certainly not force you."
Lin Momo said, "I know grandpa will not force me, but I don't want to always be said to rely on grandpa's protection to sit in the position of president. I want to prove myself.
And recently my cousin has been making trouble for me again and again. I also want to let him completely give up through this matter. "
"But, what if you are going to lose?" Lin Zhiyuan asked.
"If I lose, I lose. In fact, it is really tiring to sit in the position of president. It is not bad to give it up."
"As long as you can accept it, no matter what you choose, dad will support you."
Lin Zhiyuan then went upstairs, leaving only Qin Haodong and Lin Momo in the hall.
Seeing his father-in-law leave, Qin Haodong took Lin Momo's hand and said, "Momo, how was my performance today?"
"Very good. Thank you for preparing such a good gift for grandpa." Lin Momo kissed Qin Haodong on the cheek and said, "This is your reward."
Then she said, "You taught Lin Pingchao a terrible lesson today. You didn't leave a gift of more than 30 million yuan. He is about to go crazy.
"He always wants to steal your limelight. No one can bully my woman at will." Qin Haodong said, "But Lin Pingchao is really scheming. Although he is angry, he is still far from being mad. Everything that happened later was prepared by him long ago."
Lin Momo asked with a little surprise, "Do you mean that he and Grandpa prepared to compete with me in advance? It's not an impromptu idea?"
Qin Haodong said, "Of course not impromptu. Otherwise, there would not be so many people standing up for him. These people must be his helpers in advance."
Lin Momo still did not believe it and asked, "Can he? If he had prepared before, why did he try so hard to send gifts to grandpa? Couldn't he just propose to compete with me? "
"You used your wisdom on outsiders, while Lin Pingchao used his little thought on his own family, trying to take the position of president from you."
Qin Haodong said, "If I'm not mistaken, he has prepared two strategies in advance. The first one is to please the old master through gifts. If the old master can happily hand over the position of president to him, it will be the best. The second one is to force the old man to agree to a fair competition between you and him.
Because of me, his first strategy did not succeed, so he had to use the second one. "
Lin Momo did not say anything, which was a tacit agreement. As Qin Haodong said, she was very smart, but she did not want to spend her time on her own family, so she did not think too much about Lin Pingchao.
