【354】 Guest list
The wedding of Ye Fan and Xiao Moli was naturally held grandly and lively. What surprised Ludao’s political and business circles was that the bride’s family actually brought a generous dowry including Bentley luxury car, Ludao sea view villa and 8.88 million cash checks.[
At this time, the Ye clan realized that Xiao Moli was not a country girl at all, and that the Xiao family's wealth was even better than that of the Ye family.
Careful people finally discovered that the girl who was close to Xiao Moli was the executive president of Jinghu Dairy, who was famous in financial magazines some time ago. Look at the young man dressed in casual clothes next to him. People familiar with the financial industry finally linked this "Xiao family" with the rich family that is about to be on the Forbes Rich List!
It turned out that the Ye family had reached a high point. No wonder the total import and export trade volume of Ye's trade exceeded the 100 million US dollars mark in the first half of this year, setting a record high in history!
This time, the Ye family's status in Ludao and even in southern Fujian's business district has risen sharply. As for the senior management of the Jinghu system such as Xiao Feng and Xiao Tao, they have also become the target of everyone's pursuit at the wedding.
Ye Fan and Ye Zhongjun and his wife would not feel like they were overshadowed by each other, but would feel extremely happy.
Ye Zhongjun's generation is the only one, and Ye Fan is also the only son. Although the Ye family clan is huge, Ye Zhongjun's lineage is weak. The Ye family's enterprise can develop more by relying on Ye Zhongjun's ability and the connections formed in the army.
The stronger the Xiao family is, the greater the help it can bring to the Ye family. Ye Zhongjun still sees this very clearly.
After the wedding, the Ye family arranged for the Xiao family to have fun in Ludao and the surrounding scenic spots for a week. Whether it was vehicle arrangements, catering, accommodation, etc., the Ye family came forward to deal with it, with the purpose of satisfying the in-laws. The Xiao family was not too pretentious and accepted the Ye family's kindness openly, and had a good time in southern Fujian, and then they went home!
Since Ye's trade was a lot, the old man did not ask Jasmine and Ye Fan to return to Ginkgo Village. After all, many formalisms are not needed.
…………
After returning to Ginkgo Village, the little dolls such as Nini, Tongtong, Ding Dang still felt a little unsatisfied. Every day, they told other children about the stories of being on the southern Fujian sea in the village. The various shell works brought back from Lu Island were also sent to the village playmates like flowing water.
The children were obsessed with the trip to Ludao, and the adults were also deeply excited and became busy!
The grand wedding of Ye Fan and Xiao Moli left a profound impression on the Xiao family. The combination of Chinese and Western cultures and the beautiful wedding dress made the Xiao family's deputies unable to do so.
Xu Mengyao naturally dreamed that her and Xiao Feng’s wedding could be so dreamy and romantic. After returning to Ginkgo Village, she began to search for various relationships all over the sky, trying to find the best wedding designer to design a unique wedding dress for herself.
Especially Xue Lihua, she only has Xiao Feng, and she may only have this time in her life to prepare for a wedding as a mother, so she is naturally very concerned.
After returning to Ginkgo Village after the trip to Ludao, Xue Lihua immediately formed a wedding preparation committee with her elder sister Xiao Yueji and others, and served as the director of the preparatory committee and began a vigorous preparation work!
The first thing to do is to determine the number of guests. This is a considerable workload for Xue Lihua, who decided to hold the wedding grandly.
First of all, all the villagers of Ginkgo Village are naturally invited, and even some tribe members who work in other places are among them. After all, Xiao Feng will not receive gifts for this wedding, so it is reasonable to invite the villagers to come back to watch the ceremony. In this way, even the 1,080 villagers in the entire Ginkgo Village account for only half of the wedding guests.
Invitations in this regard are very convenient. After all, the village committee and ancestral halls have a list of villagers and family genealogies. It would not take too much effort to invite them according to the map. However, in order to show respect, Xue Lihua made Xiao Feng and Xu Mengyao write them in person after listing the list, which made Xiao Feng complain but was powerless to resist.
In addition to the villagers, another large group is the employees of Jinghu System, with more people in this part. Fortunately, Jinghu System has complete human resources information and is not troublesome to process.
Now, the total number of employees in the entire Jinghu system has exceeded 2,000, of which Xiaojia Farm has a fixed staffing of 800, Jinghu Ranch has 500, Jinghu Dairy has 200, and Jinghu Company and Jinghu Hotel have more than 500 employees!
It can be said that the current Jinghu system has initially made the entire Jinghu area a small town. Thousands of high-income employees mean more than 1,000 families and have strong consumption capacity. It is precisely because of the existence of Jinghu system employees that the construction of Ginkgo New District has been extremely smooth, after all, the consumer group is a potential business opportunity.
After the invitation of Datou, the next one was the relatives who married the Xiao family, such as Tongtong's grandmother's family, Ding Dang's grandmother's family, etc. These were also quite large. After roughly counting, there were at least one hundred guests from more than a dozen relatives.
Next, the whole family is classmates, colleagues and friends. These guests need to report the list individually. After Xue Lihua counts, Xiao Feng writes invitations. For example, the old man’s colleague, the village staff of the nearby villages with good relationship with Xiao Jinxu, Xiao Jinhao’s fellow chef, Xue Lihua and Xiao Jinyang’s colleagues in Dianning and Yaozhou.
I don’t know, but I was really shocked when I calculated. The number of guests in this regard exceeded 300. Considering that the wedding day was National Day, most of these guests could attend, and the scale of the wedding was getting bigger and bigger!
"Son, isn't the situation we've made too big?" Xue Lihua was a little shocked when she saw the dense names of people on the computer screen.
At the beginning, she just wanted to make the wedding grand and lively, but after counting it, the number of guests began to head towards the 4,000 mark, which did not include the guests on the Xu family.
"It's okay, it won't cost much anyway!" Xiao Feng saw his mother's thoughts very clearly, and waved his hand and said, "Since you want to do it, let's make the scene lively so that the guests can't say we are petty!"
The cost of a banquet is not high. After all, the farm at home can produce most of the ingredients. Even if you get abalone, lobster and fish bones, the cost of a table can be controlled below 2,000 yuan. Calculated by 500 tables, the cost of a banquet is only about one million, which is not a burden for the current Xiao family.
What is more troublesome is to prepare round-trip air tickets or train tickets for guests from other places, and arrange vehicles to pick up the station at the airport and station, and then prepare the room to stay in Ginkgo Village. However, Xiao Feng will not deal with these problems personally. The staff drawn from Jinghu Dairy can be competent for the guests' itinerary and accommodation arrangements. Xiao Feng's function is to fill in invitations and pay for them!
"Okay, listen to you!" Seeing that his son did not object to his thoughts, Xue Lihua smiled and continued to count the guest list.
Naturally, Xiao Feng and Xu Mengyao’s classmates and friends cannot stop them, which is even more troublesome, because they are scattered all over the world, and everyone needs Xiao Feng and Xu Mengyao to confirm in person, and then send invitations through air express to further determine the itinerary.
There are not many customers in this part, only a hundred people. Considering the itinerary, it would be nice to have about 100 people.
Next, there are guests from the Xu family!
Xu Mengyao and Xu Xiangnan cannot decide who to invite. They have to ask for instructions from General Xu first, and then he will nod.
Although General Xu has retired from his leadership position for more than ten years, as the only founding father in the Republic, his influence in the military and political circles is unparalleled. After all, on the old man’s birthday every year, the Prime Minister will send representatives to congratulate him. I don’t know how many people will be alarmed by General Xu’s favorite granddaughter’s wedding.
To everyone's surprise, General Xu, who has always been selfless, actually recognized the Xiao family's wedding and provided Xue Lihua with a list.
In the words of the old general, the old man has no time left. Such a lively scene is seen every time, so there is no need to think too much.
The old general is ninety-three years old this year, and he is already at the age of doing whatever he wants. In addition, he has been used to all kinds of magnificent scenes since he was a child, so he naturally will not take the so-called "bad influence" seriously.
When Xiao Feng saw the list given by the old general, he was also shocked. This was clearly the rhythm of holding a cabinet meeting in Ginkgo Village!
After thinking carefully, Xiao Feng knew that this was his grandfather's plan to "help the horse and send it off" against the Jinghu system, which was why he made such a decision.
At this moment, the writing of the banquet was not only Xiao Feng and Xu Mengyao. Xu Xiangnan was involved as a parent. After all, many people on the list were once colleagues with him and were members of the Central Committee. As for some particularly heavyweight guests, the invitation was written by the veteran general himself, with the well-known names on it, which made Xiao Feng frightened.
Looking at China and even the world, even the top rich people may not be able to invite these guests on the list to attend the wedding. It can be foreseeable that Ginkgo Village will become the global focus on the wedding day. Xiao Feng is a little excited and nervous when he thinks about it.
After the list of wedding guests was confirmed, the next highlight was Mengyao's wedding dress and Xiao Feng's dress. Then they had to take wedding photos in Ginkgo Village. The time was quite urgent.
As the calendar turned into mid-August, the entire Ginkgo Village and even the Jinghu system began to revolve around the wedding of Xiao Feng and Xu Mengyao. After the corresponding scale of the wedding was revealed, the villagers of Ginkgo Village and employees of the Jinghu system also felt quite proud. After all, being able to personally participate in such a grand century wedding is a thing worthy of happiness.
Visitors to Ginkgo Village are constantly putting their knowledge and photos on the Internet, which makes Xiao Feng once again the focus of media attention! (To be continued, please search Piaotianwen, novels are better and faster!
