Chapter 189 Whoever dares not to keep his word with me, I will beat him until he keeps his word!
Lin Guoyang was furious and walked quickly across the corridor, followed by Lin Chaohui, who was sweating profusely, chasing him and trying to persuade him.
"Dad, don't be angry. Zhenhua definitely didn't mean that. Wang Zhuxi said..."
"Shut up!" Lin Guoyang suddenly turned around and cursed.
"Lin Zhaohui, what's wrong with you? You keep talking about Zhenhua, and shut up about Zhenhua. What kind of magic potion did he feed you? If you keep saying that again, you will be punished by the family rules!"
After saying that, he left Lin Chaohui and rushed straight to the reception room!
Lin Guoyang's anger was not without reason. Although the Shanghai Lin family was a branch, they had always strictly adhered to their ancestors' teachings and regarded them as their guiding principles. This was a family secret!
In the past, no matter who it was, when they mentioned these words, they would either express great respect or be filled with praise. How could anyone be like Xu Zhenhua, who actually looked down on them so much?
No wonder the Lin family is getting worse and worse. In other words, these few words of instruction from the Lin family are useless. To put it bluntly, they are bullshit!
Who can bear this?
The most important thing is, if these words were said by someone else, it would be fine, but that person happened to be the 'dream husband' that Wan Shuang had found!
No, I have to make it clear today. Otherwise, let alone the Lin family joining Pingnan, even if Shuangshuang is reluctant, I will not allow you two to be together. I would rather die in glory than live in disgrace...
...
Soon, in the living room, Xu Zhenhua and Lin Guoyang took their seats, while Lin Chaohui stood. He had been extremely nervous, but now he felt a little relieved...
He had been frightened just now, but now he seemed to have come to his senses. His brother-in-law was indeed amazing. What did he say? Or did he say nothing? Yet, he was able to force his father to show up.
The most amazing thing is that when we met just now, my brother-in-law was like the host and called out very generously, "Mr. Lin, please sit down!"
This not only makes the guest take the lead, but also quietly avoids the awkwardness of the father-in-law and son-in-law not recognizing each other, and can even the status of the two people, making the conversation equal...
...
Facing his father-in-law, Xu Zhenhua remained calm, took the lead in launching an attack, and opened fire at full force from the start.
"Mr. Lin, please don't be angry. The Lin family's ancestral precepts are indeed a rare spiritual treasure in our national culture. Unfortunately, they point in the wrong direction!"
What? Lin Guoyang couldn't believe what he was hearing. He'd just met her for the first time, and he'd been impressed. Shuangshuang had good taste. The man before him was truly a handsome man with an extraordinary demeanor. Especially that greeting just now. It was so natural, like a gentle spring breeze, making him feel valued. He couldn't help but sit down...
But what did he hear now? Was he pointing in the wrong direction? Instantly, the extinguished anger rose again, but he still suppressed his anger and spoke sarcastically through gritted teeth.
"Oh? Mr. Xu actually has such a brilliant idea? I'd love to hear more about it, and I hope you'll be able to enlighten me!"
Xu Zhenhua could tell the man was talking nonsense, but who was he? His face had been tested for a long time, so he immediately waved his hand carelessly.
"Okay! Since you're so sincere, I'll say a few words..."
Lin Guoyang on the other side was stunned, then he was so angry that he almost bit off his tongue. Lin Chaohui swallowed unconsciously and said, "Brother-in-law, you are awesome. I have been in the business world for so long, but my thick-skinnedness is not even a fraction of yours!"
Xu Zhenhua ignored them and started talking.
"Let's first talk about Lin Zu's expectations. The first sentence is that he hopes that future generations will devote themselves to the country. Lin Zu did it. The Humen Xiaoxiong back then fired the first shot in the Chinese nation's resistance against the foreign powers. How great! So the question is, what should we do for our country?"
When Lin Guoyang heard that the other party would actually lift Lin Zu to such a height, he was stunned, but also very happy. However, when he heard this question, he subconsciously replied.
"Naturally, we should practice the way of a gentleman, emulate the actions of a sage, and educate the world!"
Obviously, this is the meaning of the second sentence of the Lin family's ancestral precepts!
"Hahaha..."
Xu Zhenhua heard this, as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world, and he almost cried with laughter...
But when he saw that his father-in-law seemed to be getting angry again, he immediately stopped.
"So what I said is right. The Lin family will only go from bad to worse... Hey! Don't rush to refute, listen to me. The way of a gentleman is to treat gentlemen. Will a villain talk to you about the way of a gentleman? Will a robber talk to you about reason?
No! They won't. They will do whatever it takes to break the rules and achieve their goals. They won't listen to your nagging, and the rules you insist on are just a shackle on yourself. In their eyes, you're just a fat lamb..."
Lin Guoyang immediately found a flaw.
"No, you're not right. According to you, you should be more mean than a villain and more bandit than a bandit...
At that time, no one adhered to the right path, and no one kept their word. Flower farming was truly doomed. Our Shanghai Lin family has always believed that integrity is the foundation of business.
Xu Zhenhua immediately perked up. This was what he valued about the Lin family: the moral heroes in troubled times. Unfortunately, they were too rigid, so he immediately shook his head and denied it.
"No, no, no, that's not my approach. It's very simple, just eight words: seek truth from facts and keep pace with the times! It can be simply understood as recognizing the situation and adjusting the methods of struggle at any time.
For example, in the business world, when dealing with trustworthy people, we must be honest and principled; when dealing with dishonest people, we must be more cunning than them and use reasonable and legal means to force them to be trustworthy with us..."
Suddenly, Lin Guoyang's mind buzzed with excitement, and these words kept lingering in his mind. That's right! Back then, when Lin Zu obeyed the order to eliminate the swallowing, he faced many obstacles and countless assassinations. If he didn't have more cunning means, how could he have done it?
Especially the phrase, "seek truth from facts and keep pace with the times!" It is so insightful and applicable to any era and any occasion, including business wars!
Oh my! Shuangshuang's partner is not an ordinary one!
But there is still a problem!
"Mr. Lin, I admit that your point of view is unique, no, it's very practical, but it's just talk. Will it work? I still have to question it!"
Xu Zhenhua sighed. Why is this father-in-law like this? He has already approved it, but he still insists on proving it!
"Hahaha! I have another saying: Practice is the only criterion for testing truth! If it works, you'll know after trying it, right?"
Lin Guoyang was stunned again, muttering to himself, "Practice is the only criterion for testing truth. Isn't this the simplicity of the great way of the School of Mind and the unity of knowledge and action?"
You are right. Only by walking on it can you know whether this road is passable or not?
At this time, he looked at Xu Zhenhua again, with a glimmer in his eyes. Could it be that the gentleman Shuangshuang was looking for had the potential to be a saint?
Xu Zhenhua noticed his father-in-law’s confusion. Okay, no time to waste. I’m already hungry. Let’s make one last attack!
"Now, remember to keep my words confidential! I've been following the principle of seeking truth from facts and keeping pace with the times. In just two months, Pingnan has grown from just me to a regular army of over 25,000..."
What? Lin Guoyang suddenly stood up, not believing it at all. Only after receiving a positive answer from Lin Zhaohui did he collapse on the sofa...
My son's words kept coming back to me.
"Almost everyone in Pingnan sees Zhenhua as a savior... Pingnan is also very advanced, even years ahead of the foreigners... I once saw with my own eyes Wang Zhuxi open the car door for Zhenhua and happily say that he was holding the horse and whipping him..."
The living room was silent for a long time, so Xu Zhenhua had to light up his cigarette again...
Suddenly, Lin Guoyang, who had been stunned for a long time, suddenly grabbed Xu Zhenhua's arm and asked excitedly.
"Zhenhua, no! Son-in-law, tell me the truth, can Pingnan defeat the foreigners?"
Xu Zhenhua's mouth twitched wildly. "No, father-in-law, could you be a little more arrogant? I'm not used to you being like this." But after thinking about it, he understood why his father-in-law was so concerned about this issue. Lin Zu was obsessed with restoring the country's prestige until his death...
I didn’t want to say it at first, but when I thought about it, my heart softened.
"Not yet. I promise you, it won't be long before no country in this world can rival China... When that time comes, we will avenge our grievances and settle our grievances...
Of course, in the future, I will also hold on to trustworthiness in one hand and a gun in the other. If anyone dares not to be trustworthy to me, I will beat him until he keeps his word..."
The words were filled with murderous intent, and the air in the room instantly became a little colder. Lin Zhaohui even shuddered unconsciously...
What Xu Zhenhua didn't expect was that Lin Guoyang actually burst into tears. Incredibly, when Lin Zhaohui tried to comfort him, he was pushed away with disgust. Instead, he clung to his son-in-law, Xu Zhenhua...
Xu Zhenhua comforted her and told her the story, and only then did he know that Lin Zu had another ancestral motto.
'If my descendants are like me, what's the point of leaving them money? If they are virtuous and have a lot of money, it will damage their ambition;
My descendants are not as good as me, so what is the use of leaving them money? If they are foolish and have too much wealth, their faults will only increase.
At this moment, Xu Zhenhua suddenly realized why the Shanghai Lin family didn't care about the various oppressions or the money anymore. Lin Guoyang believed that this branch of the Shanghai family had become what the Lin ancestors called "fools," unable to manage the wealth accumulated by generations. It was better to let his children live happily for the rest of their lives...
"Zhenhua! I never thought that the Lin family could find a son-in-law as wealthy as you. God bless the Lin family, God bless the flower industry... From now on, the Lin family in Shanghai will follow your lead..."
After a long time, he finally calmed down. Xu Zhenhua was thinking, "Let's eat soon!"
Suddenly, a sudden change occurred...
A servant rushed into the living room.
"Master, Young Master, something bad has happened. A lot of thugs have come to the gate, demanding compensation from the Lin family..."
