August 12th, morning, Hong Kong Island!
Lin Jie, An Kexin, and others stood at the yacht dock, watching a large silver-white yacht slowly leave the berth.
"Brother Jie, this yacht is even more luxurious and beautiful than the Freedom Flyer!"
An Keng, her eyes sparkling with little stars, murmured softly, "I was planning to take this yacht back to Binhai, but you let it return on its own. Isn't that a waste?"
Lin Jie reached out to pat her little head and said, "We've been out for long enough. We'll play around Hong Kong Island for two days and then fly back. There isn't ti to slowly sail back by yacht."
"Besides, this yacht already belongs to us. You'll have plenty of opportunities to take it out to sea for fun."
The yacht, gifted by Sheikh Abu Halik, is only slightly smaller than the Freedom Flyer, asuring over sixty ters long, with three decks, and looks even more slender overall.
It can carry 32 crew mbers, and besides the crew's resting rooms, there are nine luxurious rooms of various sizes.
Lin Jie and the others, taking a tour of the yacht, were amazed by the true aning of lavish gold.
The interior is dominated by bright gold, and the captain explained that this gold is all pure gold leaf.
The luxurious suite, reserved for the Sheikh's leisure, has tal decorations made of pure gold, and the dinner sets and tea sets used are also made of gold.
All of this now cos along with the yacht as a gift to Lin Jie.
The oil sheikh really isn't short of money, which was Lin Jie's most direct impression.
"Brother..."
Lin Miao said worriedly, "I asked the captain of the Freedom Flyer."
"He said that for a yacht of this scale, the cost of renting a dock spot, fuel, crew wages, and regular maintenance, etc., would add up to at least ten million a year."
"If you don't have a net worth of more than a billion, you can't afford to maintain such a yacht."
An Kexin put her arm around Lin Miao, chuckling, "You little worrywart, the maintenance costs of millions don't put any pressure on your brother anymore."
"Besides, if we utilize this yacht well, it might even make money."
"How to make money?" Lin Jie also showed interest and asked.
An Kexin pondered and said, "A yacht like this entering the Binhai rental market will surely be popular among high-end clients."
"The yacht's second deck is a large open space, extravagantly built into a golf practice area."
"We can modify it a bit, turning it into a venue that can accommodate a hundred people for business etings, high-end corporate events, company annual parties, small weddings, celebration dinners, etc."
An Kexin smiled and said, "It can also serve as the activity venue for the An Lin group, for team-building events, employee incentive trips, and so on."
At this mont, An Keng thought of sothing and shouted, "Brother Jie, this yacht should also be able to sail on the Yangtze River, right? How about we take it upstream and tour the Yangtze River?"
Lin Jie flicked her forehead and criticized, "Why do you always think about playing? It's ti to focus. Once back in Binhai, we'll start university life. Don't forget the three-year agreent."
He looked at An Kexin and said, "See if Crown Holiday Hotel can take over the maintenance and rental business for this yacht. They're more skilled at this than we are."
An Kexin smiled and said, "Boss Liu would definitely wish for us to do this."
"Do we need to hire a new crew, or should this be left to Boss Liu's people, or should we recruit ourselves?"
Lin Jie thought for a mont and said, "Let's recruit ourselves. It's our yacht, our people. We'll feel more secure when using the yacht."
At this point, An Keng grabbed Lin Jie's hand and shook it, urging, "Stop talking business, let's hurry and go have fun!"
"Let's go to Disneyland, Ocean World Park. These are my last days to relax; not a single second should be wasted..."
Morning at Ocean World Park, afternoon at Disneyland, until nine o'clock in the evening, Lin Jie and his party of eight arrived at the previously reserved Peninsula Hotel.
Their luggage had been delivered in the morning, along with Lele, entrusted to hotel staff for care.
Upon entering the hotel lobby, Lin Jie saw soone he recognized, Luo Wantong.
His tall stature was indeed striking.
Seeing him approach with Luo Shanshan by his side, Lin Jie frowned slightly and said sternly, "There's no need to say anything else, I won't listen. You should be thinking about how to respond to my lawsuit!"
Luo Wantong wore a gentle smile and said, "Expert Lin, President An, I ca specifically to apologize this ti."
"What Shanshan did before was indeed very wrong, but she had no choice. I ask Expert Lin and President An to forgive her selfishness, recklessness, and mistakes."
Lin Jie looked at Luo Wantong silently, wanting to hear how he would twist the facts and make things sound beautiful.
Luo Wantong made a gesture of invitation and said, "Expert Lin, President An, why don't we find a quiet place to sit down, and I can explain the whole story properly?"
Lin Jie pondered for a mont and said, "Guan Muhua, Ren Yiran, take Miaomiao and Keng to the hotel room..."
In the hotel's cafe, Lin Jie, Luo Wantong, and others found a relatively quiet place to sit.
After ordering a cup of coffee each, Lin Jie said coldly, "Luo Wantong, you better get straight to the important parts. We're not here to listen to nonsense."
