Chapter 384: 35 Billion Euro In Net Worth (Part Two)
Auntie Lan looked at Lin Chuxue, smiled, and said, “With the fall of the four behemoth companies, do you know the size of wealth that was freed up? Let me give you a rough comparison. In M Nation, there’s the Roosevelt Financial Group and the Morgan Financial Group. There’s the Sanlin Financial Group in Wei Nation, and in the other countries, there are also all kinds of financial groups, big or small. But why doesn’t Huaxia have any public ones? In fact, the behemoth families were financial groups, and their sizes were no smaller than the ones I just talked about. With the fall of these four, the country could free up enough funds to contribute to the reform and development of the national treasury, allowing the country to enter the implementation stage in advance for its military and construction strategies. But do you know these companies I’m giving you and Young Master are still under our names?”
Lin Chuxue was a bit confused.
Auntie Lan laughed and said, “Haven’t you noticed that all the assets that the four behemoth families had invested in were all confiscated by the government but only Madam’s assets and companies weren’t?”
Lin Chuxue’s eyes widened and she instinctively said, “Because of Xu Cheng?”
Auntie Lan nodded. “Yeah. Over these days, I noticed that all the other assets of the four behemoth families were either sold or annexed, but only Madam’s assets were not seized by official personnel. I think there could only be one reason, and it’s Young Master. This might be an exchange, so I felt I must hand these assets back to Young Master. If you two are both not interested, then the officials will probably take ownership. You are a smart woman, you wouldn’t just give these things away for free, right?”
Lin Chuxue softly smiled. “Of course not.”
Auntie Lan: “So, please take over it on behalf of Young Master.”
Lin Chuxue exclaimed, “250 billion RMB, that’s about 35 billion euros! Auntie Lan, no matter how attractive I am, who else in this world is willing to give me 35 billion euros? Oh no, plus the 3 billion Xu Cheng gave to my family earlier, it’s 38 billion in total!”
Auntie Lan: “No matter how much it is, it rightfully belongs to you two. Just accept it on behalf of him. Didn’t you want something to do? You can try managing these companies. You don’t think your man will need money in the future?”
Lin Chuxue stood there in a daze. After a long mental struggle, she smiled at Auntie Lan and said, “Auntie Lan, I don’t think I can accept this. With my personality, I prefer starting everything from scratch. Including Xu Cheng, I don’t think he would want money obtained this way too.”
Then, Lin Chuxue gently put her hand onto Auntie Lan’s hand, smiled, and said, “Auntie Lan, you deserve this money, and I think Xu Cheng’s also very willing to hand this money to you. I know him, he doesn’t really have a concept of money, and he’s happy as long as there’s enough. You served Mom for so long and also managed these businesses for the Ye Family for so long. These companies are all doing extremely well in your hands, so I think these companies really belongs to you.”
Auntie Lan shook her head. “No, I can’t.”
“Yes you can, Auntie. As Xu Cheng’s wife, I made this decision on his behalf. You said these belong to him, then now I’m gifting you all of this!”
Auntie Lan was dumbfounded as she looked at Lin Chuxue.
Who would be able to stay indifferent in front of such a large fortune? Probably almost no one!
However, Lin Chuxue’s mentality of being able to pick up and let go was also very shocking to Auntie Lan.
“Young Madam, I didn’t read you wrong!” Auntie Lan smiled. “But I don’t have any heirs. I can continue taking care of these companies, but in the future, I want to give them all to you and Young Master’s little ones.”
Lin Chuxue smiled and said, “You can do whatever you want.”
