Chapter 212: Chapter 204: Sister is the Heir
"You guys make the decision, I don’t plan to start a business in the future anyway. I also want to apply to military school and join the army like my brother-in-law."
Lu Jinsheng responded to Xia Yuan with a relaxed face, "As for the family shares, it wouldn’t matter to me if you didn’t leave any for me. Having too much money can be a nuisance. After all, won’t I make my own way and not worry about money with my own achievements?"
His parents had never hidden it from him, they had told him about the distribution of Lu Group’s shares among everyone. He had always known that his parents actually only owned 50% of Lu Group’s shares.
And his parents’ 50% wouldn’t all be his in the future; his sister also had more than half the rights to inherit, and even the shares his sister would inherit in the future would surpass his own.
His parents explained that when the family started the business, it was actually reliant on his sister’s unwilling-to-appear "secret mentor". The Psychic Power Technique he practiced in private was also provided by his sister’s "mentor".
He knew that his sister practiced alchemy, and the elixirs that strengthened his body were made by his sister’s hand. These were their family’s biggest secrets, and even their grandparents were unaware.
So outsiders didn’t know that Lu Group actually owed its existence to his sister’s mysterious mentor, and naturally, as the only disciple, his sister would be the true heir in the future.
He is a real man, and being born into this family was the luckiest thing for him, so he should be content and not cause any fratricidal tragedies over wealth. A real man needs to earn his own way and establish a legacy—that’s true capability.
"So you look down on the 20% then?" Xia Yuan chuckled at her son’s attitude, "It’s just as well, the 20% isn’t for now. Your father and I are still healthy, you don’t get such fortune to have shares at eighteen. If you want to inherit the family business, you’ll have a long wait."
"It’s not that I look down on it, I just really have no interest in business. Thank goodness my sister will take over. Otherwise, how miserable would I be, forced to do something I’m not interested in?" Lu Jinsheng said with a playful grin, patting his chest with an immensely relieved tone.
Like father, like son. Lu Aiguo had already guessed Lu Jinsheng’s attitude, so he just smiled silently to the side.
"Mom and Dad, there’s really no need for this. Besides, Dad, aren’t you afraid that with your 30%, combined with mine, I’d already hold 80% of Lu Group’s shares? I could take you down at any time."
Lu Yun never actually planned to take over Lu Group in her life, so the prospect of getting a 30% stake made her somewhat displeased. How could her father manage the entire Lu Group without enough shares?
Moreover, she had plenty of other ways to make money. Now that she was soon to turn eighteen, she had a chance to travel abroad and buy back the high-quality assets and even the mines she used to own overseas, at a low price. Besides the original ones, there were also some opportunities she had missed before—it was time to take them into her own hands...
"I’d welcome it, then I could just travel the world with your mommy with the money. Besides, your mother and I can’t even spend 20% of Lu Group’s profits a year, and we could enjoy life without any hard work," Lu Aiguo laughed heartily, looking expectantly at Lu Yun.
"Hmph, dream on, I don’t want it. Just announce that I own 15% of Lu Group’s shares. That’s enough to let everyone know how much you value me," Lu Yun grumbled.
Lu Yun realized what motivated her parents to suddenly plan a grand eighteenth birthday for her and give her the shares. She was touched, of course, but she didn’t want to accept it, at least not now.
"The matter is decided. You’re taking it whether you want to or not. Otherwise, you might as well donate it all—if you’re not worried about Lu Group’s shares leaking out," Lu Aiguo said with a "sly smile," not afraid at all that his daughter would actually do it.
Lu Group has never gone public because the Lu Family has always pursued a steady and solid strategy, expanding with their own funds only.
Everyone unanimously voted and decided that there was no need for Lu Group to go public in the future. In fact, over the years, Lu Group has never sought financing from any bank, company, or individual, nor taken any loans.
This might seem incredibly unbelievable, but Lu Group did just that and rose to become one of the top domestic enterprises within a mere decade or so.
While other companies were begging banks for loans, it was the reverse with Lu Group; sometimes, bankers themselves would come knocking, practically begging them to take out loans.
"Mom, will you please talk some sense into Dad, who ever heard of forcing someone like this?" Lu Yun pouted unhappily.
"I’ve discussed this with your father and we’re in agreement, so you’d better accept reality," Xia Yuan said with a smile, shaking her head firmly in refusal to speak on her daughter’s behalf.
"You realize we won’t get past Grandpa and Grandma like this, right?" Lu Yun looked at both her parents helplessly, "I’m not lacking money, and I’m also planning to go abroad after turning eighteen to see if I can find some suitable mines to ’invest’ in, then treat them as my private property, excluding them from the Lu Group assets. Who knows, my private wealth might even surpass that of Lu Group in the future."
When Lu Yun spoke the word "invest," she emphasized it intentionally. Of course, she wasn’t really planning to invest in mining; she didn’t have the time or inclination for that. She intended to buy them outright and dig, which was the true way to make a fortune quietly.
Lu Aiguo and Xia Yuan instantly got the joke and started laughing.
Lu Jinsheng looked at the three of them, baffled, and kicked the table leg impatiently, "Go ahead and continue discussing. I haven’t spent enough time on my psychic power cultivation today."
"Go on, all you ever do is cultivate your spiritual power and practice martial arts. Don’t you have any other interests?"
Xia Yuan sighed, hand on her forehead, not sure whether to be grateful or depressed. Her youngest son was so uninteresting; she even began to worry if this boring, penniless boy with no "standing" in the family would ever be able to find a wife in the future.
"Wait a minute, Lu Jinsheng, how much money have you saved up now?" Lu Yun called out to him.
"It should be around three million, I guess?" Lu Jinsheng scratched his head, uncertain.
"Hmm, go write down your passbook and corresponding PIN, then bring it all here."
If her brother was planning on joining the military in the future, that meant he wouldn’t have the time to start his own business. Lu Yun couldn’t just watch him struggle for money later on; it was better to start investing for him now so he wouldn’t have trouble supporting a wife and children later.
"Alright. Are you short on funds, sis? Girls sure know how to spend money. Thank goodness you have the family fortune to inherit; otherwise, who could afford to maintain you?" Lu Jinsheng muttered, but he didn’t hesitate and stood up to leave.
"Hurry up and stop wasting time talking," Lu Yun urged him.
