Chapter 220: New Year; Back to School!
Translator: Endless Fantasy Translation Editor: Endless Fantasy Translation
When the surrounding villagers heard Zhao Jiaqi’s words, their mouths were wide open, and their faces were filled with horror.
An international logistics airport, a hotel, a library, a medicinal herb base, a storage center… A total investment of more than 50 billion!
50 billion?
How much money was that?
In the eyes of the villagers, five million was already a lot.
50 billion was completely beyond their imagination!
Lin Tao and Dai Weixue looked at Lin Fan in shock.
Although they already knew that their son was amazing, the logistics airport and the 50 billion still surprised them.
Lin Liqiang was the first to react. He laughed heartily and said, “Leaders, please take a seat and have some black tea! The place is rather simple, please don’t mind it.’ 11 “Old Master Lin, you’re too polite.” Zhao Jiaqi smiled. “You might not know, but my hometown is in the mountains of Yan City. Compared to my hometown, your place is already considered a wealthy family’s compound!”
“Is that so? Hahaha!” Lin Liqiang was even happier.
It had to be said that Zhao Jiaqi was indeed the leader of Qing City. With just a few words, the atmosphere at the scene became even more lively and enthusiastic.
About an hour later, the villagers and the leaders of Qing City slowly left the Lin family.
Lin Liqiang carefully moved the written blessings and the Qing City’s specialties into the house like precious treasures.
Lin Tao asked, “Lin Fan, the leader just said that you invested 50 billion in the logistics airport and hotel in Qing City?”
Lin Fan replied, “Yeah. Dad, didn’t you ask me to invest in Qing City when the conditions allow?”
Lin Tao could not help but freeze.
Yes.
He had said this before.
‘But isn’t your investment a little too much?’ 50 billion?
Lin Fan seemed to have noticed the change in his father’s expression. He smiled and said, “Dad, don’t worry. These investments are nothing to me.”
Lin Fan was definitely not bragging.
One had to know…
Lin Fan had 5% shares of Penguin and 5% shares of Little Tanuki, which amounted to 500 billion yuan.
In addition to his shares in LV and Gucci, the Coiling Dragon Villa Complex, and the Global Financial Building…
Now, his total net worth was already approaching trillions.
50 billion was indeed nothing in front of trillions.
This year’s New Year celebration was the most lively year for the Lin family in Shanwu Village.
Almost every day, people came to congratulate them. Countless gifts were piled up in the Lin family’s house.
The smile on Lin Liqiang’s face almost never faded.
This situation continued until the 15th day of the first month.
The family gathered around the table and ate the glutinous rice b.a.l.l.s.
Lin Fan’s phone rang.
He glanced at the caller ID and saw that it was from the dean of the Mathematics Department of Jiangbei University, Hu Chuan.
“Dean Hu, what’s the matter?” Lin Fan asked curiously.
“It’s about time for school to start, no? Your home is so far away from Jiangbei. It’s not safe for you to travel alone… Therefore, we teachers are here to pick you up and fetch you to school,” Hu Chuan said.
Was Qing City far from Jiangbei?
It was less than 100 kilometers.
How could Lin Fan not understand what the dean was thinking?
He was worried that he would not return to Jiangbei University.
Lin Fan smiled, “Director Hu, there’s no need. I’ll go over myself later.”
“We have to be responsible for the safety of the students.” Hu Chuan said, “Besides, we’ve already reached Fourth Street of Qing City. But you don’t seem to be home?”
Lin Fan was stunned for a moment. He did not expect that Dean Hu and the others had already arrived in Qing City.
“I’m spending the new year with my grandparents in Shanwu Village,” he said after a while.
“Shanwu Village? Alright, we’ll be right there,” Hu Chuan said.
Not long after, a luxurious bus stopped in front of the Lin family’s house.
Then, Hu Chuan and a large group of professors walked in with gifts. “You should be Lin Fan’s grandfather, right? Old Master Lin, happy new year.” When they saw Lin Liqiang, they cupped their hands and congratulated him. “Thank you, thank you!” Lin Liqiang said happily.
Then, he asked, “Oh right, you are…”
“I’m Hu Chuan, the dean of the Mathematics Department of Jiangbei University. I’m here to celebrate the New Year with you and also to pick Lin Fan up. It’s too dangerous for him to go back alone considering the long distance.”
“I’m Ma Zhicheng, the head of the grade of the Mathematics Department of Jiangbei University…”
“I’m Qin Jia, the dean of mathematics at Jiangbei University…”
Lin Liqiang listened to everyone’s self-introduction, and his pair of turbid eyes became bright.
During this period of time, there were indeed many big shots who came to visit him.
However, there had never been people like Hu Chuan and Ma Zhicheng who had the status of dean and head of the grade.
These were all great professors and scholars! Lin Liqiang liked cultured people the most. Now… they had all come to pay their respects!
Lin Liqiang said excitedly, “Everyone, please come in. Come in and sit!”
“Lin Tao!” he shouted. “Lil Fan, Lin Tao! Come out and greet the guests!” Lin Tao had already met Hu Chuan and the others before the new year. Therefore, after seeing them again, he was not too unfamiliar with them. He said happily, “Dean Hu and all the professors, please sit down.” Everyone sat together, drinking tea and chatting. The atmosphere was very relaxed.
Lin Fan said, “Dean, you guys really didn’t have to pick me up. I was planning to drive to school later.”
“How tiring is driving? It’s also dangerous. Later, you can rest on the bus. Director Ma, you can help Lin Fan drive his car,” Hu Chuan said.
“Alright,” Ma Zhicheng replied.
Lin Liqiang and Lin Tao watched as Lin Fan, Hu Chuan, and the others boarded the luxury bus and headed toward Jiangbei University.
At this moment, a villager walked over and asked, “Old Master Lin, did you have more guests just now?”
These days, every time a wave of guests came to Lin Liqiang’s house, there would be villagers coming to talk to them.
This was also when Lin Liqiang was the happiest.
“Yeah!” Lin Liqiang said proudly. “The dean and professors of Jiangbei University came to visit us just now. They came to pick up Lil Fan.” When the villagers heard this, their faces immediately revealed a strong sense of envy.
The dean and the professors personally came to pay a New Year’s visit and pick Lin Fan up to go back to school… How glorious was this?
Lin Liqiang was very satisfied with the villagers’ reaction.
At the same time, in the Central Hospital in Qing City.
After these few days of treatment, Li Yong recovered a lot. He could even get out of bed alone.
He opened the drawer and saw the small bottle of Medical Water. He could not help but ask, “What’s this?”
Yang Wei looked over and said, “Ah! Your former student, Lin Fan, brought this over before the New Year. He said that after you get better, you can drink it… I forgot about it!”
Li Yong’s face was filled with grat.i.tude when Lin Fan was mentioned.
If it was not for Lin Fan, his illness would not have recovered so quickly and he would not have been able to stay in the VIP ward.
Li Yong did not care what medicine it was. As long as it was given by Lin Fan, there was absolutely no problem. He poured it into his mouth.
Gulp!
A moment later…
The place where Li Yong had undergone surgery began to itch and burn…
Sleepiness also gradually came.
When he woke up, he realized that all the surgical wounds on his body had disappeared. A sense of relief that he had never felt before surged into his heart.
Feeling this… Li Yong was stunned, his face filled with disbelief..
