Siheyuan (courtyard house): My name is Shazhu!

Three days before the wedding, the super-cyborgs from the three countries of the United States and the United Kingdom arrived in the port city. They first reported on their respective work progress, and then were dragged away by Kuang Biao and Zhao Youcai to experience the unique features of the port city.

Martha didn't come. Over the phone, she told him she had a big surprise gift for him and asked He Yuzhu to come to her place as soon as possible.

In the betrothal gifts, Ho Yu-chu included an extra plot of land in the Central district, which was requested by Sir Chow, who wanted to build a bank there.

He directly exchanged a dock for the land, which was worth even more than the land itself, and both parties were satisfied.

On the morning of the wedding day, He Yuzhu used eighteen Black Dragon 1 cars to pick up the bride. After completing the necessary procedures at the bride's mother's house, they went to the banquet restaurant.

There weren't many people on the streets of Central at 10:30 a.m. on Monday, but the sight of the eighteen Black Dragon cars in front and behind was quite a spectacle.

The cars, gleaming with a black metallic sheen, are incredibly imposing. With so many vehicles on the road, they resemble a majestic black dragon driving through the streets.

"Whose wedding is this? Just the sight of this black dragon convoy is impressive enough, and they must be rich. Each car costs 10,000 Niu Niu coins, which is equivalent to 18 yuan in our currency."

"Even with 180,000, you might not be able to buy a Black Dragon car. It also depends on your status. Black Dragon cars look too domineering, no less impressive than a Rolls-Royce fleet."

"When I get married, I'll also have eighteen Black Dragon cars as wedding cars. Today, the person getting married is Mr. He, the big boss of Dongda Group, and the bride is from the Zhou family."

My dad attended a wedding; I heard there were nearly two hundred prominent business owners from this area there.

"It's the wedding of the big boss of Dongda Group. To celebrate the wedding, each of the workers received a red envelope containing 288 yuan."

The factory has 37,000 workers, and this boss gave away over 10 million yuan—that's two months' wages for us ordinary workers!

"The bosses at Dongda Group are very generous. Salaries here are among the highest, and all benefits are free. There are bonuses every month and at the end of the year."

"My relative told me that several of their products sold very well this year. I wonder how much the year-end bonus will be? Working for their company is really lucky."

"Everyone in the Dongda Group is truly fortunate!"

When the convoy arrived at the restaurant, He Yuzhu and Zhou Songyu got out of the car, followed by a group of people from the convoy. Some were there to pick up the bride, but most were Zhou's family members.

He Yuzhu finally saw what a large family was like. Fifty-two direct and important collateral relatives came, along with some people who went directly to the restaurant.

Once the passengers disembarked, the convoy drove away. This is an upscale restaurant with a parking lot, but only about fifty spaces. Today, the number will far exceed that.

Many restaurant owners arrive in person but drive their cars elsewhere, avoiding taking up parking spaces at the restaurant.

We entered the restaurant and exchanged pleasantries, waiting for 11:38 to arrive. This place is so superstitious; even the wedding time has to be an auspicious number.

He Yuzhu chatted with Zhou Songyu and the guests. Both of them were experienced people who had seen a lot of things and were no strangers to this. They were able to deal with the guests with ease and would not neglect anyone.

To the delight of many guests, all of Niu Niu's top executives were present at the wedding.

Many people want to get to know them and make friends with them, but they are still the ones in charge here.

He Yuzhu and Zhou Songyu greeted them, exchanged a few compliments, and received their blessings!

The remaining time is for other hotels; we can't let them come for nothing. The opportunity has been presented; whether they can seize it is up to them.

Say more to people you know well, and say less to people you don't know well.

The Zhou family has extensive connections. In the 1950s, the Li family and the He family, two of the four major families, had important figures at the wedding and presented generous gifts to congratulate them!

He Yuzhu also got to know and talk with both families, and they have no conflicts now.

The wedding ceremony began on time, starting in the main hall, with Zhao Youcai as the emcee.

On stage, he first wished the newlyweds a happy marriage and then thanked all the guests present.

The last sentence was a call for Mr. Willens, from Niu Niu's hometown, to come up on stage and speak.

Few of the Chinese business owners present had heard of the surname Willenster; only a few from the Zhou, Li, and He families had.

There were only five or six of them. Their expressions froze. They were from Niu Niu's hometown. Could they be from that earl's family?

Ten years ago, Ting Shuo and his family were in a terrible state; their entire family was reduced to ruins. In recent years, they have recovered considerably, and their influence has been restored to 80%.

If it's an important member of the family, judging from his expression, it should be a good thing; He Yuzhu has quite a network of connections.

"Ladies and gentlemen, good afternoon. I am Charton Willenster from the Willenster family. I am here first to congratulate Mr. He Yuzhu and Ms. Zhou Songyu on their marriage and wish them a long and happy life together!"

On behalf of Prince Richard, Mr. Richard Mountbatten Windsor, and Ms. Martha Windsor, congratulations to the newlyweds! ...May you have a baby soon!

This also represents the nine people who, though not present, offered me their wedding gifts. Congratulations!

"What the hell did I just hear? A prince, Windsor, and all those surnames—aren't they all from top-tier families in Niu Niu's family?"

"I never expected so many important people to send gifts to Mr. He's wedding. Whether they come or not is not important. Look at Niu Niu and the others; they all look completely bewildered. They didn't expect this at all."

"Zhou Sheng, we seem to have underestimated your nephew-in-law. With his skills and connections, no one can deal with him. He's like a dragon entering the sea."

"Mr. Li, this is the first time I've heard of this. I only just found out that Mr. He has dealings with these people."

"I believe you. This Willenster is really something. The next generation of the family heir is acting as a gofer. Out of ten congratulatory gifts, five are named Windsor. He can do whatever he wants in the country."

Young people should always keep a low profile!

"He's already been very low-key; otherwise, this would have been the main battlefield of World War III."

"Mr. Li is overthinking it."

He Yuzhu and Zhou Songyu went to receive the gifts. Niu Niu Ren said that these gifts could be opened and appreciated in front of everyone, and it was not impolite.

The gifts sent were mostly bone china tableware sets.

Charles gifted gold-rimmed bone china teaware and plates from brands such as Wedgwood, which have been authorized suppliers to the royal family. They are exquisitely beautiful, elegant, and luxurious.

Charles is a good friend, we share similar blood, we're kindred spirits!

Even Zhou Songyu was completely mesmerized; she had never seen a brand-new, complete royal bone china tableware set in Niu Niu's hometown.

The others also used bone china tableware, a popular choice for high society weddings. While slightly less prestigious than royal gifts, it combines practicality with status symbolism.

Three other gifts are silver or silver-plated tableware: matching sets of knives, forks, candlesticks, tea sets, etc., which are commonly found on the wedding lists of aristocratic couples.

This is how He Yuzhu is placed in this position.

He Yuzhu and Zhou Songyu expressed their gratitude to Willenster and conveyed their greetings to the other nine people. They also invited him to the wedding banquet.

Kuang Biao and his henchmen took away the ten sets of gifts, ready to officially begin the banquet.

"Mr. He's connections are undeniable. The prince's royal-approved bone china set is so beautiful; it's exquisite and thoughtfully prepared."

"This isn't just a perfunctory remark; this relationship is far from simple. And those people with the surname Windsor—look at Niu Niu, they're all astonished."

"Where they live, a person with the surname Windsor is incredibly powerful. How could they not be afraid?"

"Luckily, some of our envious patients here didn't make a move. I doubt anyone would dare to do so this time. The Zhou family's son-in-law has close ties with the highest levels of power in Niu Niu's hometown. Just ask them if they're afraid."

"Of course they're afraid. There's no use in clinging on."

"The feast is starting. Let's try the food here and come back more often."

"We need to come more often."
