Jagged City - Chapter [-] Preparing for the Wedding Children's Filial Piety

Half a month later, Lin Tao returned to China, and he was greeted with a great honor. This strong sense of belonging and mission made Lin Tao more confident. 1卍1 Lin Tao's official position changed again, and he also served as the deputy director of the No.11 Bureau of the Central Police Bureau.Lin Tao was a little puzzled. The Central Police Bureau was to protect the leading cadres of the central government. However, there used to be only the ninth bureau, but now there is an eleventh bureau, and the chief of the bureau is concurrently served by Lieutenant General Li, whom Lin Tao is familiar with.

Lin Tao took the letter of appointment handed over by Lieutenant General Li and asked in confusion, "Sir, where is our eleventh bureau? How many people are there?"

Lieutenant General Li smiled and said, "You need to start this bureau. I am only temporarily acting as the director. In the future, this position will be yours. Now we don't have many people in the bureau, except you and me."

"Ah—so, I'm a polished commander. This is a temporary position. Chief, isn't the steel seal on it fake?" Lin Tao touched the steel seal on the letter of appointment and said.

"You bastard, that's the seal of the Central Military Commission. Who dares to fake it? Now the [-]th round is just a temporary intention. It still needs a lot of specific planning. You can take your time and don't worry about it for the time being. By the way——and your private affairs, you The boy won't wait for Xiao Xiao to give birth to the baby before holding the wedding." Lieutenant General Li likes Lin Tao from the bottom of his heart, and Lin Tao is two years older than his grandson, but he is four levels short of his position.In particular, Lin Tao was so appreciated by Shang Lao and General Jin that he could actually ask him about Lin Tao's marriage, which shows how much the two old men love each other.Especially this time, Lin Tao rescued Minister Liu and got the top radar technology secrets, which actually gave Lin Tao a special merit.This special merit is simply the pursuit of a soldier's dream all his life.Li Zhongjiang made a letter of appointment to Lin Tao one stop in advance, and Mr. Shang will present Lin Tao with a certificate of special merit and a medal tomorrow night.This Lin Tao is now the most dazzling new star in the army.

When Lin Tao saw General Li mentioning the marriage, he said with a smile: "Of course we can't hold the baby for the wedding ceremony. We've already started preparations, and we don't need to make any fuss. We've already booked a hotel in Xishan, and we've been busy printing invitations for the past two days. But it would be interesting to marry the twin brothers and sisters." Lin Tao laughed.When Lin Tao returned to China, he saw Xiao Xiao's big belly was a bit unbelievable, and he found out after asking, that they were actually twins.Xiao Xiao actually kept it a secret from herself, even when she was on vacation.Lin Tao was pleasantly surprised and depressed at the same time.

General Li frowned, and said: "There seems to be no five-star hotel in Xishan! Although our soldiers advocate integrity, there are quite a few people who want to attend your wedding. Not only the chief is going, but Xiao Xiao's natal family also has many high-ranking officials. It is not easy to do security work in a hotel that is too small!"

"Don't worry, it's a four-star hotel bought by my father. The decoration has just been completed. Not only did I get married at no cost, but I also booked the venue without any other guests." Lin Tao said with a smile. The reason why he chose this hotel was to let Let's see, the Lin family is also powerful, instead of being talked about behind their backs in the future, Lin Tao started the hotel secretly, suspicious of the source of funds.

"Really, I know that your company was founded when you were in school, and you opened a super fast food restaurant in Beijing last year. I didn't expect it to develop so fast, and it was able to buy a four-star hotel. It cost a lot of money, right? Lieutenant General Li asked intentionally or unintentionally.

"Didn't Xiao Xiao win more than 500 million US dollars in the casino? You must know that this hotel was created by Xiao Xiao. My father's company raised 2000 million and borrowed 6000 million. The main building that is currently renovated , and will continue to build in the future, how can the official opening be on the National Day." Lin Tao only found out after returning to China, and he didn't expect Xiao Xiao to make such a big move, so he was encouraged by himself.This hotel is surrounded by mountains and rivers, and is located next to the main road in the west of Beijing. It is characterized by a good environment and good transportation. Although it is located in the suburbs and is very remote, there is a lot of room for development, and the hotel occupies a large area.A thousand acres of wasteland.It was originally an industry of Guot Group, but due to the group's poor management and continuous losses in overseas investment, it had to transfer the construction of a third of the hotel. The news of this hotel was discovered by Qiao Kun. This guy proposed to build a five-star hotel last year. The hotel is a bit unrealistic, but several shareholders were moved. Qiao Kun has been paying attention to this aspect. He accidentally saw that the hotel whose main building was completed had stopped working, so he asked someone to ask. The t group is short of funds, the hotel is facing unfinished business, and has to be transferred, so they hit it off and formed a preliminary intention. Qiao Kun persuaded Lin Tao's father, and then began to raise funds. When Xiao Xiao returned from overseas triumphantly, he brought a large sum of money. Funds, everything is easily solved.The transfer funds totaled 6000 million, which was divided into three installments. According to the contract, Junlian Co., Ltd. transferred 8000 million on the same day, and paid 4000 million annually in the next two installments. The t group spent 5000 million yuan to purchase the land at the beginning, and invested another 7000 million yuan to complete the foundation of the main building and two auxiliary buildings.The exterior renovation of the building has been completed.Let Junlian Company pick up a ready-made bargain.It cannot but be said that Junlian is lucky.

For more than two months, Junlian Company has been working on the interior decoration of the main building.The lobby on the first floor, the banquet hall on the second and third floors, the multi-functional meeting room on the fourth floor, 72 standard rooms on the fifth and sixth floors, [-] double rooms on the seventh and eighth floors, [-] luxury suites from the ninth to eleventh floors, and seventeen The eight presidential suites on the [-]th and [-]th floors are already available for use.After Lin Tao gets married, the main building will be completely renovated within a month, and it will be open for business at that time.At least it is possible to organize various banquets, and it is not a problem to accommodate five or six hundred guests.If the two ancillary buildings are all completed, it will waste more than half a year for the main building, and the loss is estimated to be tens of millions. A smart businessman will never let go of the opportunity to make money.

Now this situation is more than enough to complete Lin Tao's wedding.This time it is not only Lin Tao's wedding, but also Zhao Dingtian and Guan Lanlan's wedding.Zhao Dingtian is an orphan who was brought up by Zhao Banxian since he was a child. Besides Zhao Banxian, his relative is Lin Tao, so Lin Tao has a spoonful of it, which saves trouble.

The reason why Junlian Company is so generous is not only that Xiao Xiao brought back a large sum of money, but also that Xiao Xiao also had Lin Tao's idea that Lin Tao should not be allowed to have a small treasury. Lin Tao’s money will gradually flow in for renovations, otherwise, with such a large funding gap, it’s impossible to handle it without a hundred million yuan. In sum, Lin Tao was tricked by Xiao Xiao. This is also Lin Tao’s impression after watching the hotel. Coming to Xiao Xiao is not a fuel-efficient lamp. It is said that men become bad when they have money. Xiao Xiao's purpose is to shrink Lin Tao's pocket.The deal was done, Lin Tao had to transfer the funds to Xiao Xiao's account in batches.We all know that Xiao Xiao won money overseas, but who knows how much he won?Besides, Xiao Xiao doesn't take bribes, who will investigate.What else can be found out?The mysterious person put a huge sum of money into Xiao Xiao's account, what's the matter?Who's in the way?So the money was spent with confidence.

Lieutenant General Li nodded, and said to himself, Lin Tao is using clever schemes, and he doesn't hide it. His father manages the company and makes money legally, and other people can't find fault.It is inevitable that some people will be jealous because of this.

"Then the hotel's current recruitment of staff may not be able to meet the needs of the banquet. I'll ask some staff from our army guest house to come and play. Let Wang Han spare some manpower for the security work, and some of the trainees that Dingtian is training can also be used." General Li said this To send charcoal in the snow, although Lin's father plans to transfer some company employees, it is still not enough, especially the chef, who is hard to find in a short time.

Lin Tao was most worried about the security work. The first time he entered the underground hall of the Amazon ancient tomb, the hallucinations he had were vivid.Although Lin Tao couldn't believe that there would be a terrorist attack, he must be careful.

Just when General Li was teaching Lin Tao the opportunity, Lin Tao's father, Lin Zhiyuan, was frowning in a bridal shop.I was thinking about it in my heart, how can I choose a wedding dress, and my husband followed me, it's too shameful.If Lin Tao's mother is still alive, I don't know how happy she would be, but it's a pity that Lin's mother can't see Lin Tao's adulthood.Lin Zhiyuan's eyes were a little moist. Thinking of Lin Tao's hard work step by step over the years, he was already a senior military officer at the division level at the age of 27. It was not easy without any background, and the huge company was founded by his son. I never imagined that my son would achieve such an achievement, right?Lin Zhiyuan sat on the chair and sighed silently.In the past few years, Lin Zhiyuan has returned to his old business and made the company flourish. He is still alone. Although he is 50 years old, he does not look old. He still looks like a tough middle-aged businessman. In his early forties, he looked much younger than Xiao Xiao's father.When Lin Tao went abroad, Xiao Xiao's parents also called Lin Zhiyuan several times. Apart from asking him to take care of Xiao Xiao, they just nagged their son-in-law, especially Xiao's mother who always praised Lin Tao.Lin Zhiyuan was very happy.The Xiao family is a high-ranking official. Although he is a businessman, he has been in prison for several years, which is not very honorable. However, the in-laws have not mentioned a word, and they respect Lin Zhiyuan very much.If it weren't for having a good son, ordinary people would be able to get into the eyes of the Xiao family.There are also many officials in the Xiao family's relatives. Xiao Xiao's grandma's family is also a high-ranking family, with a profound background and a long history of family education.But the son is not bad, not not bad, but one in a million, definitely worthy of the old Xiao's family.

Lin Zhiyuan was thinking wildly when a person walked into the bridal shop.Lin Zhiyuan looked up and saw that it was Miss Zhu, the company's financial director.This Miss Zhu is Wang Han's classmate and has always been single. It was Wang Han who recommended it to Lin Tao.In the past two years, Ms. Zhu has managed the company's finances in an orderly manner. Various budgets and expenditures are under the supervision of Ms. Zhu, and there are almost no mistakes.It is one of the pillars of Junlian Company.Ms. Zhu is 36 years old and has a cold temper. If she didn't usually have a straight face, she would be a beauty.The relationship between Zhu Yueting and Lin Zhiyuan has been good for the past two years, and she admires Lin Zhiyuan's talent very much. Therefore, the two work as partners very well.Seeing Zhu Yueting coming, Lin Zhiyuan quickly stood up, a little surprised: "Yueting, are you here?"

Lin Zhiyuan wanted to ask why Zhu Yueting came, but he felt that it was not polite, so he said, 'You are here'.Zhu Yueting laughed at Lin Zhiyuan's appearance, covered her mouth and coughed, and said, "Boss Lin, you are here, it was Xiao Xiao who called me here, and asked me to help pick out the wedding dress."

"It's good if you come, I'm sitting here, I feel uncomfortable, Lin Tao is busy, what's the matter with pestering my old man?" Lin Zhiyuan said with a bitter face.

Zhu Yueting burst out laughing.At this moment, Xiao Xiao and Guan Lanlan came out, Guan Lanlan was wearing a wedding dress, Xiao Xiao was holding a wedding dress, but she was shy and didn't wear it.Seeing Zhu Yueting, she quickly greeted her, "Sister Yueting, come and help me."

Zhu Yueting walked over quickly, and was pulled into the fitting room by Xiao Xiao.

"Godfather, do you think I look pretty in this?" Guan Lanlan was petite and cute, holding the wedding dress around in front of Lin Zhiyuan.

"Looks good, it would be great if Dingtian was here, what are these two boys busy with, leave the two brides here, and let my old man watch."

Guan Lanlan smiled and said: "Godfather, Dingtian is busy training students, brother-in-law is a high-ranking official, of course he is even busier." Guan Lanlan made a circle with her hands to show Lin Tao's high official status, which made Lin Zhiyuan laugh, and said to herself What are you gesticulating, this kid?But the shouting was a bit messy, Lin Tao let Dingtian recognize Lin Zhiyuan as his godfather, but he was still Dingtian's uncle.Although Lin Tao treats Dingtian like a younger brother, Dingtian never dares to forget the seniority of this master and apprentice, and he is an uncle when he opens his mouth and shuts his mouth.And Guan Lanlan was called Lin Zhiyuan's godfather and Lin Tao's brother-in-law.Most people can't figure out what the relationship is.

"I heard that Dingtian is still studying at night school. He is about to graduate." Lin Zhiyuan asked. This Zhao Dingtian has never been to school. He took some basic cultural lessons when he was in the Yinhai Special Forces Brigade. This year I went to night university.

"Well, I'm graduating in a month, so let's learn slowly in the future. Dingtian is a regiment-level officer. If he doesn't have a diploma, he won't make people laugh. Fortunately, Dingtian is quite smart and can learn things quickly. , I will help him when I have time. You may not believe it, but in terms of literature, especially ancient Chinese, Dingtian is very good, no worse than ordinary university professors." Guan Lanlan said proudly.

"Well, Mr. Zhao is also a man of virtue. He taught Dingtian ancient Chinese since he was a child. What Dingtian learned can be said to be a combination of ancient and modern. It is better for young people to learn more. You and Xiao Xiao are both graduate students. After Lin Tao returns to China this time, Once you settle down, you have to study." Lin Zhiyuan was also very happy to see that these young people are promising, the waves behind the Yangtze River push forward the waves ahead!Lin Zhiyuan sighed in his heart.

Guan Lanlan laughed when she heard that: "Godfather, my brother-in-law is a top medical student who is a undergraduate and master's student. Although he is an officer, he probably got a postgraduate degree faster than me and Xiao Xiao."

Lin Zhiyuan snorted and snorted, "He doesn't stay at home all day, and he has been abroad for half a year. It's impossible for him to graduate as a graduate student. Besides, he's not a military doctor. What's the point of getting a graduate degree from a medical university?"

"Brother-in-law, you're smart. As long as you have time, it's not a problem to get two degrees. You don't have to worry about that." Guan Lanlan said in the mirror.

Lin Zhiyuan stroked his chin and asked, "Am I old, Lan Lan?"

"I really should slap you, I don't mean you are old, I'm a respectful title, you look like you are in your 30s, and now you are the boss of the company, I don't know how many college girls you can attract! However, you Don't be tempted by female students, I'm afraid that your brother-in-law will disagree with your finding someone who is too young."

"You girl, you are not big or small, and you still tease your godfather. At my age, there are still girls who like you." Lin Zhiyuan looked in the mirror, dressed in a suit and leather shoes, with a personable demeanor, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, feeling himself Really not old.

"However, if you pursue Sister Yueting, I think your brother-in-law will be satisfied." Guan Lanlan said in a low voice.

"Don't talk nonsense, you girl. Let someone hear you." Lin Zhiyuan's expression changed slightly, showing a little embarrassment.Lin Zhiyuan and Zhu Yueting have always been polite. Due to work, they basically meet every day. After a long time, Lin Zhiyuan felt that Zhu Yueting was very close, so he had no idea. When Guan Lanlan said it today, he couldn't help but feel his heart skip a beat. He felt that he really liked it. Zhu Yue's feeling.But will Zhu Yueting, a big girl, like herself?Although it is 36 years old, it is well maintained. It looks like it is less than 13 years old.She is [-] years younger than herself!Furthermore, Lin Zhiyuan has no plans to remarry these years. Although a few friends mentioned it, they didn't take it to heart.Now that my son is married and my grandchildren are about to be born, I suddenly feel a little lonely.All kinds of emotions rushed to my face, and I fell into confusion for a while.

"Sister Yueting must be very beautiful in a wedding dress—"

"You girl, you are getting married, why do you want me to wear a wedding dress?" Zhu Yueting was pushed out of the fitting room by Xiao Xiao, Lin Zhiyuan was taken aback, Zhu Yueting in front of her was shy, blushing, wearing a white low-cut wedding dress , looks very charming and beautiful.

"Dad, do you think sister Yueting is beautiful in her wedding dress?" Xiao Xiao asked standing beside her.

"It's so beautiful—ahem—" Lin Zhiyuan replied subconsciously, making the old man blush, thinking that the daughter-in-law here actually made her husband look bad.

Zhu Yueting is a top-notch person, although she has a cold personality, she also understands at this moment that this is Xiao Xiao creating opportunities for the two of them.Seeing Lin Zhiyuan's performance, Zhu Yueting was very satisfied, and could feel that Lin Zhiyuan liked her very much.The other side of Zhu Yueting's liking for Lin Zhiyuan is that a successful businessman like Lin Zhiyuan is rare and very honest. In the past few years in the company, Lin Zhiyuan has nothing but work and no gossip.At present, a businessman with a net worth of tens of millions has one or two lovers, and they are recognized by the world for having secrets or something.It's hard to find a gentleman like Lin Zhiyuan. Although he is older, Lin Zhiyuan doesn't look old. Besides, Zhu Yueting is 36, and she is not in her prime. She will be forty in a few years, so she is a good match for Lin Zhiyuan.At least when standing together, no one will say anything about old couples and young wives.

"Xiao Xiao, where is your wedding dress?" Lin Zhiyuan changed the subject.

Xiao Xiao immediately said coquettishly: "Dad, you really are, how do you wear clothes with such a big belly? It's all because of Lin Tao, a nasty guy."

"Ahem—this..." Lin Zhiyuan was at a loss for words, and he didn't know how to answer, but he was very beautiful in his heart, and my son was amazing, and he killed two birds with one stone.

"Godfather, don't listen to Sister Xiao Xiao. Sister Xiao Xiao and her brother-in-law have prepared special wedding clothes in the Ming Dynasty style. They are so beautiful. Let's take two photos first."

"Well, I'll take pictures with you too." Xiao Xiao and Lan Lan pulled Zhu Yueting, but Zhu Yueting half pushed and half agreed.Xiao Xiao and Lan Lan took photos with Zhu Yueting separately, and then Lan Lan dragged Lin Zhiyuan to take a group photo. Lin Zhiyuan didn't want to take a photo at first, but he was dragged away by Lan Lan, and he couldn't show his face in front of the shop assistant.I had to smile awkwardly and be dragged away by Lan Lan.

"Sir, you stand in the middle—"

"This time you stand back—smile more naturally—"

Lin Zhiyuan was teased to be big, and then it was finally over. He was a little unnatural and returned to the company by car with Zhu Yueting, but after the wedding dress incident, the two had already begun to cherish each other.It seems that the two matchmakers Xiao Xiao and Lan Lan are quite qualified.

In the evening, in Tianlan International, in the apartment on the top floor, Lin Tao, Zhao Dingtian, Xiao Xiao, Lanlan and the others were looking at the pictures from the bridal shop.

Xiao Xiao clicked and zoomed in, and there was a group photo of Lin Zhiyuan and Zhu Yueting's wedding dress, but Xiao Xiao and Lan Lan were completely missing.

"How is it, Lin Tao? Dad and Sister Yueting are quite a match, right?" Xiao Xiao smiled.

"It's really a good match, but you two teased Dad, and I got scolded in the end." Lin Tao said with a bitter face.

"For godfather's happiness, what's the point of scolding you?" Guan Lanlan said disdainfully.Lin Tao smiled and did not answer. As children, their biological parents are irreplaceable, but sensible children can also accept their parents’ significant other for the happiness of single fathers or mothers.Lin Tao could only pray silently in his heart, I am getting married, I am going to be a father, I hope my mother who died young can hear it.
