But the facts are the facts. The old Philip not only accepted Sanlika, but also greeted her kindly: "You are Sanlika, right? You are a very well-behaved girl, yes, it is very honorable to be my granddaughter-in-law!"
"Ah... I..." Sanlika didn't know what to say for a while.
Philip quickly winked at Sanlika, reminding her to call her grandfather quickly!
"Grandfather..." Sanlika was a little excited. She didn't expect that the huge problem would be solved just like that with my understatement! Of course, behind my understatement, there are so many benefits that she never dreamed of!
"Okay, good boy, add another person to our family as soon as possible!" Old Philip said with a smile.
Logically speaking, in foreign families, the elderly seldom interfere with whether the children and grandchildren have children. The reason why old Philip said that was just to show his friendliness to Sanlika in front of me!
Now at the airport, there are many people around, and it is not easy for old Philip to ask me what is the relationship between Sanlika and me, but judging from the way I speak, it should be a very good relationship, so old Philip dare not neglect!
At this time, the car of the Philip family also drove over, and the old Philip got into the car, and the others also got into the car one after another. Our group passed away to the villa of the Philip family.
The villa of the Philip family is located on the outskirts of Milan. It is a typical European-style building with a very large area. The main core members of the Philip family live in it. Other peripheral descendants do not live here. They only live in the family. Only come when there is a big event or a meeting!
Me and Yang Mei's family were arranged by the old Philips in an old-fashioned castle-style building. Of course, the old-fashioned is just a retro appearance, with all the modern facilities inside!
Sanlika also received a good reception.
I know that old Philip must have something to discuss with me, and I happen to have something to explain to him, otherwise he would not be willing to let his grandson marry Sanlika.
"Mr. Liu, I have a precious and famous painting. I heard that you Orientals like these. Why don't you go and appreciate them with me?" Sure enough, as soon as they settled down, old Philip came to the door.
Of course I understood what he meant, so I didn't refuse. I nodded and said, "Okay, please lead the way!"
Old Philip was very happy to see that I agreed, and hurriedly led me to an independent corridor next to the main building. After several password verifications, we came to the collection room of the Philip family.
The things inside are really dazzling and varied, from carving to weaving art, there are many miscellaneous things. Appreciating paintings is just an excuse, so I didn't ask where the paintings are, but just looked at these things everywhere.
"Mr. Liu, I heard from Ke Dun that you want to discuss the issue of the dowry?" Old Philip first started to find a topic.
"Oh, hehe, it's just a joke. In China, the idea of dowry is more popular. You don't need it here. I just said it casually!" I said with a smile.
"How about that, do as the Romans do, Sanlika is your fiancée's younger sister, so you have to follow your customs!" Old Philip said as if he had thought of it occasionally: "By the way, your fiancée is an oriental , how could it be Sanlika's sister?"
I secretly smiled, heh heh, you finally got to the point!
"Don't get me wrong, I don't mean anything, I'm just curious!" Seeing that I didn't speak, old Philip thought I was angry, so he quickly explained.
In fact, I was thinking about how to talk to old Philip, and I was organizing my words: "Old Philip, in fact, Philip and Sanlika were met by chance when my fiancée and I were traveling, because we hit each other very well. So Philip and I have become good friends, and my fiancée and Sanlika are like sisters, in fact, there is no special blood relationship!"
"It doesn't matter?" Old Philip was stunned for a moment, and his mind began to work rapidly, thinking about the pros and cons in the middle.
When I saw the old Philip's appearance, I couldn't help being a little funny: "I'm afraid you also know that we Chinese people are very loyal. Sometimes, friends are even closer than brothers and sisters!"
Old Philip obviously thought of this too. After listening to my words, he felt more at ease. Not to mention anything else, just talking about my relationship with Philip will bring great benefits to the family in the future! But from this point of view, Sanlika's role is actually very small! But I can't live without her! Because only by accepting Sanlika, Philip will concentrate on developing the family business, and I will devote more attention to helping Philip! So, old Philip finally made up his mind: "Mr. Liu, I have no other intentions. What I mean is, when you leave Milan, why don't we give Philip and Sanglika's marriage to you while you are here?" Let's do it!"
us? Got married? Why do I seem to be able to represent Sang Lika's parents? I smiled bitterly and said, "I'm just here as a friend or as a guest of the woman's wife. Let Sanlika discuss with her parents about the specific marriage!"
"It doesn't matter, you just need to be present!" Old Philip said.
"Of course, am I still the godfather of their future children!" I said with a smile.
After talking about the business, old Philip began to ask for benefits: "By the way, I heard that East Asia Power, a subsidiary of Suguang Investment, has recently developed a new environmental purification system. I wonder if the agent in Europe has finalized it?"
This guy is really a lion! You must know that Su Yuanchao just held a press conference a few days ago and released an environmental purification system. Although it is a civilian type, most of the purchase intentions come from official institutions in many countries! You know, air pollution is one of the biggest problems in environmental protection today! And this kind of purification system can transform a large area of surrounding air in a small space. With the energy system of East Asia Power, it can work for several years without stopping! This is something that many developed countries dream of!
And this environmental purification system has not yet been launched, so of course the agency rights have not been issued, and the old Philip wants the agency of the entire African market as soon as he opens his mouth!
"European market? I can't guarantee this. Italy. It will take some time for this device to go on the market. After Philip gets married and spends his honeymoon just in time for the launch, he can be responsible for the promotion!" I thought for a while but didn't fully agree. Old Philips request!
Even so, my promise has satisfied old Philip very much, because his original purpose was to win the agency right in Italy, and he exaggerated on purpose in Europe, in order to bargain with me! As for my saying that Philip should be responsible, old Philip also understands that I'm telling him cryptically that I'm doing it for Philip's sake!
But it doesn't matter, because Philip will definitely become the next generation's family leader, so it's okay to let him take charge of some family business in advance!
Old Philip wanted to ask for some other favors, but he was afraid that I would say that he was getting too far and would be displeased, so he wanted to ask several times, but he dared not.
I looked at old Philip, and said with a smile: "Old Philip, you don't have to do this. As long as Philip is still in charge of your family's affairs, I will not ignore your family!"
Old Philip knows that on the one hand, I want to reassure him that the future benefits will definitely be indispensable, and on the other hand, I gave him an ultimatum: Philip is the next Patriarch! If not, then our cooperation will be terminated!
However, old Philip was very willing to accept this condition, because that was his original intention!
In the evening, the old Philip set up a very sumptuous dinner for me and Yang Mei's family, accompanied by Philip and Sanlika.
During the meal, the old Philip officially announced that he agreed to the marriage between Philip and Sanlika, and asked Sanlika's parents to come over as soon as possible to discuss the wedding!
This result made the two young people laugh from ear to ear. Of course, when they were happy, they did not forget to cast a grateful look at my benefactor!
The whole family is happy, but someone is not happy, this person is the largest shareholder of Ord Group - Old Witt! Old Philip called just now and broke off the engagement with him, which made Old Witt a little annoyed!
His own family and consortium are also very prestigious in Italy, but the engagement was annulled! This makes them have no face in the mall in the future!
