Volume 1: 50. A Safe Fall

  "This time the company's highest authorization is that for every kilogram of Longjing tea, it's 15,000 pounds, so let's collect it at this price."

  If previously Li Yihao had some doubts about this sudden appearance of his aunt, then when Anna said that sentence, those doubts were immediately dispelled.

  This world is full of deceit, and when Li Yifan was doing special operations work in his past life, he had seen many such things. So it's inevitable that he would be wary of this aunt who never appeared in his past life.

  After all, this matter is a bit too coincidental. I don't even know if this aunt existed in her previous life. Anyway, my dad has been searching for relatives for decades and hasn't gotten any news from the second grandfather's side of the family.

  But this life, just when his family was about to take out the Longyan incense that they considered priceless, a relative from his previous life who had been searching everywhere suddenly appeared, and as the representative of the other party in the transaction, Li Yifan couldn't help but suspect their motives.

  But Anna's statement made Li Yifan feel much more at ease, her attitude was very generous.

  Things were done very neatly, after they finished lunch in the afternoon, they appeared again in Anna's private room at Changcheng Restaurant with that 100 kg of dragon's saliva.

  It was that old Pierre again who appraised the goods, and after verifying the authenticity of these dragon's saliva incense, he quickly settled the payment. Anna didn't play any tricks.

  A little over 100 kilograms of dragon's blood, Li Yifan was also very generous, and calculated it according to 100 kilograms. Then he sold it to the Chanel company at a price of ￡15,000 per kilogram.

  Both parties signed a formal trading contract, and then this ￡15 million was directly transferred to their newly opened account.

  At that time, the country's control over appearance transactions was not strict, and in order to avoid paying a large amount of tax, Anna helped find someone to set up a handbag company in Hong Kong, a tax-free area, and then transferred the income into an account opened by this company at Citibank.

  ￡15 million, and it was only 1999 at that time. The pound was very strong, and the RMB had not started to appreciate yet. One pound could be exchanged for thirteen yuan according to the exchange rate at that time.

  In this way, the wallet company with Li Yihao as its legal person suddenly had 195 million yuan more in its account. When he got the black Centurion VIP card from Citibank's Beijing branch, Anna, who had been accompanying them to handle the business, smiled and said to Li Yihao.

  "You can rest assured now, kid?"

  Li Yifan's little thought was actually seen through by Anna long ago, she just didn't say it out loud.

  "Hey! Auntie, I'm being cautious, you should understand too!"

  "You silly kid, I told you before, it's definitely wrong, but you just won't listen."

  Li Liqiang complained to Li Yifan on the side, Anna smiled slightly and stretched out her hand to stop her big brother.

  "Brother, actually Yifan did nothing wrong, I think he did a great job, this kid is really good and has great potential."

  Anna looked at Li Yifan with admiration in her eyes, a seventeen-year-old kid who could do things so flawlessly, this kind of prudence was truly rare. If he were to develop in the direction of business in the future, then this kid's prospects would be hard to say. Li Lisheng scratched his head somewhat awkwardly, but didn't say much to Li Yifan.

  Originally, Li Yifan had always reserved a hand throughout the entire transaction process. The idea of opening a leather bag company in Hong Kong was his, and it was also his suggestion to open an account at Citibank. All these were handled by Anna's aunt.

  At that time, those few pieces of Longyan incense were intentionally entrusted to a third party for custody. In plain language, under the witness of both parties, they put the three pieces of Longyan incense in a bank's safe deposit box. However, if they want to take them out, they need the proof and permission of both parties. To put it bluntly, even though they are close brothers, there is still a bit of precaution against Anna. After all, their old man has already acknowledged this sister, and he can't suggest that they go for a DNA test. As for Anna being the transaction object, how could he be certain that the other party isn't plotting against them for these few pieces of Longyan incense?

  Fortunately, things didn't develop in the worst direction he had imagined. Looking at the string of zeros in his bank account, and the customer manager from Citibank who was smiling like a chrysanthemum, as well as the Bank's white gold card that he personally handed over with a smile, Li Yifan finally let out a sigh of relief. After all, it's always better to have the money in hand.

  It turned out that the few pieces of Longyan incense had changed hands like this. Originally, Li Yifan was still worried about the game, and Auntie had offered such a high price, which would be difficult to explain when she returned to the company. However, looking at Auntie's expression, which showed no concern whatsoever, he knew that Auntie must have her own solution, and he didn't need to worry unnecessarily.

  Originally came to buy Longjing tea, but unexpectedly recognized a aunt for no reason, and it was also the long-lost cousin of Old Li. Now the whole Li family has something to do in Beijing.

  In the following days, Anna had nothing to do either, so under her invitation and leadership, the whole family followed Anna to tour around Beijing.

  These days, Zhang Shu's mood has been fluctuating between good and bad. When she was out traveling and didn't have to think too much, she actually enjoyed the trip quite a bit. However, as soon as she calmed down, her heart would feel uncomfortable again.

  After all, it was her own sister, especially the one she had raised with her own hands until today, who stabbed her in the back like this. Whoever it was, couldn't just let it go so easily.

  Li Yifan and Li Lishuang also witnessed this situation, anxious in their hearts, but Zhang Shu's illness this time was a heart disease, such an illness would leave even the most famous doctors helpless.

  Only time can alleviate and cure its symptoms.

  Actually, many scenic spots in Beijing, Li Yifan had already turned over, of course that was in the previous life. Now, accompanying family members to revisit old places is also to make parents feel happier.

  But after a few days, Li Yifan felt a bit bored. When his parents mentioned going out for a stroll, they were still full of interest, but Li Yifan had lost his enthusiasm. After all, for this city that held too many memories for him, and for those tourist attractions, he really had enough strolling around.

  That day, at the invitation of Aunt Anna, my parents were going to set off with Aunt Anna to visit the famous Badaling Great Wall in Beijing. However, Li Yifan really lost interest and made an excuse that he was too tired from walking around the previous few days, so he didn't go today.

  Originally, his parents wanted Li Yifan to persevere and go with them, but seeing that he was really too lazy to move, they didn't force him to go together in the end, and instead let him rest at the hotel.

  In the morning, Anna's aunt sent a car to pick up her parents and they all went out together. Li Yifan, on the other hand, had a leisurely breakfast at the hotel and then started wandering around the city.

  He didn't go with his parents today because he wanted to buy a house in Beijing.

  In his previous life, he had a third-rate university diploma and struggled in this city for three years. Although he got battered and bruised during those three years, the city left him with a different kind of feeling.

  And judging from his academic performance in this life, it may not be a difficult task to go to university in the capital city in the future. So why not make early plans and buy a house in the capital?

  The concept of real estate, not to mention nationwide, but even in the capital city, has only just begun to emerge. In the past two years, the capital city has only just started to build on a large scale. However, the prices of newly built buildings are already sky-high for ordinary people. But for Li Yihua, this is the best time to take action.

  And compared with the sky-high housing prices in the capital city of later generations, the current housing price in the capital is simply a bargain for Li Yihua. What are you waiting for?

  At this juncture, for him as a veteran, it is exactly the best opportunity.
