That night, when Lin Yu returned to his residence, Xia Yunshi had already prepared a delicious meal.
Now the two of them are like a couple, spending all day together. Knowing that Lin Yu is not used to foreign food, Xia Yunshi specially learned some Chinese home-cooked dishes.
"Yunshi, how's the business in the store lately?" Lin Yu asked with a smile while eating his rice.
Xia Yunshi shook her head in distress: "Not many were sold. A total of thirty-five watches were shipped this month, and you took away twenty of them."
"It can be said that it has been losing money."
Lin Yu was happy, "It doesn't matter. I didn't expect to make any money. The team won the championship. I, the boss, should show my appreciation by giving each of them a Rolex."
"If you're not happy there, how about I open a restaurant for you?"
Xia Yunshi shook her head in panic, "I haven't graduated yet, how can I have time to stare at the restaurant?"
"There's something I'm worried about..."
Seeing Xia Yunshi's worried expression, Lin Yu couldn't help but feel distressed, and stepped forward to hug Xia Yunshi's shoulders.
"Worried? Tell me what's going on?"
"I didn't come..." Xia Yunshi frowned and whispered.
Lin Yu was stunned at first, and then his face became ecstatic. Auntie didn't come? Are you pregnant?
It turns out that I can continue the family lineage in this world!
Lin Yu had not taken any measures before. There had been no movement for several months, which made Lin Yu worried. He wondered whether he had been deprived of fertility after traveling through time.
"So I'm going to be a dad?"
"Wait a minute, let me think about what to call it? I don't know if it's a boy or a girl. I don't care, boys and girls are equally good." Lin Yu had a happy giggle on his face.
He envied old Irving every day for having three children. He no longer had to envy him because he was going to be a father too.
Lin Yu had a crazy plan before, which was to hoard player attributes like crazy, and after he had a son, he would directly build him into a world-defying player with full attributes.
Now it seems that this plan will be implemented soon.
"I don't even know if I'm pregnant..."
"And are you sure? You have to think about it, this is a lifetime event." Xia Yunshi murmured.
Lin Yu's eyes were firm, and he held Xia Yunshi's face, "Of course, and there will be more than one. Let's have a litter of cubs."
"marry!"
"There are just a few months in the offseason, and I want to hold the most perfect wedding for you."
Unexpectedly, Xia Yunshi was so frightened that she shook her head repeatedly, "That's not okay. My parents don't know about this yet? If they knew, they would probably be so frightened that they fainted."
"And I'm not ready to get married either. It's just too sudden."
Lin Yu grinned and said: "Sooner or later, an ugly daughter-in-law will meet her parents-in-law. I, my ugly son-in-law, should also go meet Lao Taishan in a few days."
"Don't worry, he and I must have something in common. After all, we are both coaches."
Xia Yunshi covered her mouth and laughed, "You and my mother probably have nothing in common. After all, you said she is a thief."
…
At night, Lin Yu lay on the bed, the ecstasy in his heart had not dissipated.
It wasn't until he learned that Xia Yunshi might be pregnant that he had a true sense of belonging to the world, and he felt like he was truly alive.
In the past, he had always had an unreal feeling, always feeling that everything around him was like an NPC in the game, but now he no longer had this feeling.
…
Early the next morning, Lin Yu drove Xia Yunshi to school and then returned to the office. He still had a lot of work to do.
"Mr. Bolin, it's useless for you to make trouble here. Lin Yu has the final say on Wizards' dividends. Even if you kill me, I won't have any money to give you."
As soon as Lin Yu got out of the elevator, he heard Unseld's voice.
In front of him were Unseld and a group of team executives. Old Paulin was angrily cursing on the street.
"What's wrong? Are the dogs barking on my team early in the morning?" Lin Yu walked up with a cheerful face and looked at the incomparable sunshine with a smile.
"Boss, you are finally here. Mr. Paulin came to me to ask for dividends."
"I told him that the team had no profit this year, but he didn't believe it." The team's financial director told Lin Yu with a sad face.
"Lin Yu, the Wizards made at least 50 million US dollars this year, what do you mean by not paying me dividends?" Old Bolin shouted angrily.
He actually had no idea how much the team earned, he just mentioned a number casually.
Lin Yu shook his head and said: "Do you think the Wizards are a hen that can lay golden eggs? The Knicks and Lakers combined can't make 50 million US dollars."
"We made 37 million this year."
Old Paulin looked overjoyed, so much? He suddenly regretted selling the Wizards to Lin Yu.
"Okay, then give me 18.5 million US dollars."
Lin Yu shook his head and said, "The team has won the championship. Should we give bonuses to the players and employees?"
"Do I need to spend money to customize championship rings and flags?"
"As a head coach, don't I deserve a decent salary? Jordan can earn 33 million this year, and I can earn 18.5 million. Isn't that excessive?"
Old Paulin was so angry that he gritted his teeth, but he couldn't refute Lin Yu.
"What about the remaining money? Give me half."
Lin Yu shrugged, spread his hands and said, "No more."
"What's gone? How is this possible?" Old Paulin said bitterly.
"The financial director is here, and the account books are with him. If you don't believe me, go and check the accounts yourself. There may indeed be a balance of three to five hundred US dollars. If you want it, I might as well give it to you."
Pauline's face turned green, three to five hundred dollars? That's too much!
"Lin Yu, remember what you did, you will definitely regret it."
Lin Yu sneered, "Mr. Paulin, there are many things I regret, but this is definitely not included."
"I still have things to do, please do it yourself."
Lin Yu was indeed busy with work today. He made an appointment with Ben in the morning, and in the afternoon he had to go to the NBA headquarters in New York. In the evening, there was an NBA league owner meeting.
The so-called owners, that is, the investors, are actually the owners of each NBA team.
Labor negotiation, also called labor negotiation, is a negotiation between labor players and employer bosses. This employer meeting is probably related to labor negotiation.
Not long after, old Paulin left angrily, and Ben arrived at Lin Yu's office on time.
"Boss, I won't be traded, will I?" Ben asked anxiously after entering the door.
Lin Yu shook his head and smiled bitterly, "I haven't been traded, but I do intend for you to join the Seattle SuperSonics."
Big Ben suddenly looked ugly. How is this different from trading?
"Is it a salary issue? Boss, I can reduce my salary as much as you want, as long as it's enough for me to support my family."
Ben's words made Lin Yu worried, but he knew that he must not be soft-hearted at this juncture. The SuperSonics was a perfect destination for Ben, at least much better than staying with the Wizards.
"Ben, this has nothing to do with salary."
"I know you are reluctant to leave me and this group of brothers, but I often tell you that there is no banquet in the world that never ends."
"I will also sell my equity in the Wizards in two years. Washington is too small and has no potential at all. You can't even find any advantages in Washington."
"There is no beautiful scenery, no pleasant climate, no prosperous economy, and no feasting life."
"At least I don't want to stay here forever. After I sell the Wizards, will it still make sense for you to stay here?"
Lin Yu said with a sigh.
Ben was stunned. He didn't expect Lin Yu to have the idea of selling the Wizards. They had just won the championship!
"Boss, I still don't want to leave. At least I don't want to leave you until you sell the Wizards."
"Just let me stay." Daben begged.
Lin Yu still shook his head, "No, joining the SuperSonics is the best choice for you."
"In the SuperSonics, you will get plenty of playing time, and your salary will definitely be the maximum salary."
"To tell you the truth, I will go to the New York headquarters in the afternoon. The bosses of each team in the league will discuss limiting the players' salaries, but this will not have any impact on you. If you join the SuperSonics, they can at least provide you with something. A five-year contract worth about US$55 million is similar to a speed car contract."
"The data can skyrocket and you can make a lot of money. I really can't think of any reason for you to stay."
When Ben heard this, his breathing became rapid. That was more than 50 million US dollars, which was enough for his family to live a life of masters.
"And we will definitely have the opportunity to reunite in the future. Ben, you are my favorite player in this league, bar none."
"After I sell the Wizards and re-acquire a team with potential, I will take you over."
After Lin Yu finished speaking, the corners of his eyes were moist, and he was actually very reluctant to give up.
Ben even shed tears, "Boss, I'll be waiting for you at the Supersonics. Remember to pick me up."
"Okay, it's not like we're parting forever, and it's not like we won't see each other again. Maybe next year's finals will be the Wizards versus the SuperSonics?"
"I will ask Old Karl to contact you in the next few days. He is a very good coach. I will feel relieved when you are under his hands."
"After you go there, don't wrong yourself. If someone dares to bully you, just beat him up. If anything happens, I will take care of you."
The more Lin Yu talked, the more uncomfortable he became, while Da Ben burst into tears and kept sobbing.
…
In the afternoon, Lin Yu got on the plane flying to New York in a depressed mood.
By the time he arrived in New York, it was already evening, and he took a taxi directly to the NBA headquarters.
The large conference room was already filled with the bosses of each team. This meeting was related to the vital interests of the bosses, so all the bosses came in person.
When they saw Lin Yu appear, many bosses cast curious glances at Lin Yu.
They didn't have much interaction with Lin Yu, and it was the first time for many of them to see the rumored Lin Yu in person.
There is a saying that there is no news in the NBA circle. Lin Yu's strong background is almost known to everyone in the NBA's senior management. Seeing that Lin Yu is younger than expected, everyone is even more convinced of this view. To give you a little background, where did a twenty-year-old young man find so much cash?
Lin Yu smiled and nodded at everyone. They knew Lin Yu, but Lin Yu didn't know them. Especially the old white man in the conference room who was all alone. It made Lin Yu's head growl. How could he tell who was who? who.
The first black owner in NBA history did not appear until 2003, so now, except for Lin Yu, the conference room is all white and old men.
