Luxurious gifts were presented one after another, and Mr. Lin smiled happily.
As the head of the Lin family in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, what he valued was not the value of the gifts themselves, but the respect given to him by the gift givers.
"Mr. Lin, this pound of top-quality Junshan Biluochun is my birthday gift to you. In order to pick this pound of tea, I used more than a hundred virgins. Each piece was picked by them personally, and every process was also meticulous.
It is personally inspected by top tea masters and is very rare. The price is more expensive than gold, so it is also called golden tea."
"Mr. Lin, this Persian blanket is said to be worth tens of millions, so please don't dislike it."
"..."
It took nearly an hour for the guests to finish giving gifts.
Then, Lin Limin and Lin Lipen came to Mr. Lin and said respectfully: "Father, my third brother and I also prepared a birthday gift for you."
"Oh?" Mr. Lin was a little curious.
The servant handed over a square wooden box. Lin Limin opened it and respectfully handed it to Mr. Lin.
As soon as Mr. Lin took out the contents of the box, there was an uproar on the scene.
"Imperial jade seal!"
"Made of white jade, you can tell it is extraordinary at first glance!"
"It looks like something from the ancient palace. I don't know which emperor used it!"
While a group of people were speculating, Lin Limin said with a smile: "Father, this square jade seal is the imperial treasure of Emperor Qianlong. Take a good look at it."
"Yeah?"
Mr. Lin looked carefully and found that the jade seal was pure white and dense, extremely finely carved and as smooth as a mirror.
The two dragons carved on the top of the jade seal are thin, smooth and scaleless, with chests raised and heads slightly raised. Their eyes are looking straight ahead, and their expressions are powerful and lifelike.
At the bottom of the jade seal, four words are engraved in seal script:
Qianlong's imperial pen!
"Yes, it is indeed something used by Emperor Qianlong. It's not cheap, right?" Mr. Lin asked.
Lin Liben said quickly: "This Fang Yuxi once sold for more than 63 million yuan at Sotheby's auction house. This time my second brother and I spent 200 million yuan to buy it."
hiss!
The whole audience was shocked.
Unexpectedly, a small jade seal is worth 200 million.
Lin Limin said: "It doesn't matter how much money you have, as long as your father is happy."
"I like this gift very much. You are very considerate."
Mr. Lin handed the jade seal to Lin San and warned: "This is a sign of filial piety from the second and third sons. Keep it."
"yes!"
Lin San bowed and responded.
"Xiaojun, didn't you also prepare a gift for your grandpa? Take it out quickly." Lin Liben urged.
Lin Jun walked up to Mr. Lin, called him grandpa obediently, then took out a wooden box and said, "Grandpa, this is the gift I carefully prepared for you."
"What's inside?" Mr. Lin asked kindly.
"Grandpa, you will know after you open it and take a look."
"Oh, you're still playing mystery with me, you little guy."
Mr. Lin opened the wooden box with a smile, and then his face changed slightly.
"This is... Dzi Bead!"
Mr. Lin is well-informed and recognized him at a glance.
"Grandpa really has good eyesight. Yes, this is a Dzi bead, and it is also a Dzi bead worn by living Buddhas."
What!
Not only was Mr. Lin surprised, but the guests present were also shocked.
Dzi beads are a kind of jewelry produced in Tibetan areas. It is said that Dzi beads worn by eminent monks will become sacred objects of Buddhism and have mysterious blessings. It is difficult to see them unless they have deep connections with Buddhism and great blessings.
, get it.
Not only that, Dzi beads also have the ability to turn misfortune into good fortune and turn adversity into good fortune.
"Xiaojun, where did you get such a treasure?" Mr. Lin asked hurriedly.
You know, this kind of thing cannot be obtained with money, but also requires Buddhist connections.
"Grandpa, this is a coincidence. The most famous place in Jiangsu and Zhejiang is Lingyin Temple. On the first day of this month, I went to Lingyin Temple to offer incense and pray for grandpa. I met a monk in the temple."
"That monk is probably sixty or seventy years old. His face is wrinkled and he looks dusty. Moreover, the monk's robes he is wearing are different from those we usually see."
"I saw that he was pitiful, so I gave him some water and food."
"Grandpa, what do you think will happen next?"
"Then he gave this dzi bead to you?" Mr. Lin asked.
"Sure enough, nothing can be hidden from grandpa. Yes, that monk said that I was destined to be a Buddha, so he gave me this dzi bead."
"He also said that this dzi bead is the object of a living Buddha. If you wear it with you, it can not only ward off evil spirits, but also prolong your life."
Lin Jun said: "I wanted to refuse, but the monk insisted on giving it to me."
"Not long after, I saw the abbot of Lingyin Temple leading a group of monks to greet the monk."
"I also heard the abbot of Lingyin Temple call that monk some guru, but I can't remember it anyway."
"Grandpa, since this dzi bead can prolong life, you should wear it with you. My grandson wishes you a long life, no... I wish you a thousand years."
Mr. Lin smiled and said: "No one in this world can live to be a thousand years old. Peng Zu's longevity is only 800 years old, but this gift is my favorite among all the gifts I received today. Xiaojun, I will follow you later."
Dad, study hard and the Lin family will still count on you to be the leader in the future."
Lin Jun immediately expressed his stance and said: "Grandpa, don't worry, I will definitely study hard and will not let you down."
"Um."
Mr. Lin put the dzi bead on his wrist.
Seeing this scene, Lin Li smiled happily.
At this time, Lin Ling stepped forward, handed over a gold pipe, and said: "Grandpa, this is the gift I prepared for you."
"Hahaha, this thing is good, but it's a pity that I stopped smoking and can't use it anymore." Mr. Lin said with a smile.
Lin Ling was embarrassed for a moment and didn't know what to do?
"Father, this is Xiaoling's wish, just accept it." Lin Limin said.
"Yeah." Mr. Lin nodded slightly.
Lin San took the pipe.
A smile appeared on Lin Ling's face again.
Immediately afterwards, Lin Wen walked out, knelt down in front of Mr. Lin with a plop, and said loudly: "Grandpa, my grandson wishes you a happy birthday. May your stars shine brightly, the sun and the moon shine together, and you will never grow old."
Bang bang bang!
Lin Wen kowtowed several times.
"It's enough for you kid to have such a heart. Why do you need to give such a big gift?" Although Mr. Lin said this, the smile on his face could be seen that he was very happy.
"You told me when you were a child that there is gold under a man's knees, so don't kneel down easily. A man can only kneel to heaven and kneel to his parents and elders throughout his life. You are my grandfather, and it is natural for me to kneel down and kowtow to you."
"Good boy." Mr. Lin pulled Lin Wen up with his own hands and asked with a smile: "What other gifts have you prepared for me?"
"My grandson has indeed prepared a special gift for you. Please take a look."
