Starting Sign-In from a Billionaire God Chapter 1470 - 1469

Prince Potter originally wanted to mock Lin Fan but was casually rebutted by Lin Fan, who said Prince Potter was out of touch.

"Prince Potter must have read a magazine from a street stall 20 years ago."

The humorous words made everyone present unable to hold back their laughter.

Prince Potter’s face was a bit embarrassed; if it weren’t for the royal family’s strict upbringing, he might have already snapped.

"Sorry, Mr. Lin said Huaxia is the second-largest economy, but I couldn’t see that in Mr. Lin’s demeanor." Prince Potter chuckled.

This remark was quite cutting, capturing the essence of sarcastic banter.

This made everyone laugh again.

The Queen felt that Prince Potter was a bit out of control, somewhat excessive, which contradicted the good education of the royal family.

"Potter, what are you doing?" The Queen looked at Potter with a bit of displeasure, hinting at him not to speak so rudely to Mr. Lin.

Lin Fan smiled and said, "It’s okay, Prince Potter just has some misunderstandings about Huaxia. He doesn’t understand Huaxia, which is not his fault, just like if I wasn’t sitting here, I wouldn’t have realized Prince Potter is actually the Crown Prince."

"You!" Prince Potter was infuriated, Lin Fan’s words were truly blunt!

Lin Fan said, "Please calm down, Prince. My point is, if you come to Huaxia, you’ll have a greater understanding of Huaxia, rather than relying on hearsay or surface observations. We Huaxia People have a virtue of maintaining humility in conduct and thrift in lifestyle. Let’s put it this way, we indeed have been through times of poverty, so we better understand the value of good life and cherish it. We maintain some good living habits, like clothing, we actually can afford international brands. If the Prince takes a closer look, you’ll realize that Huaxia is the most important market for major luxury goods now; data doesn’t lie, which proves our purchasing power. But while buying luxury brands, we also believe in the spirit of not wasting. For instance, the reason why I’m wearing this outfit is not because I can’t afford new clothes, but because I’m being thrifty."

Prince Potter said, "I really don’t want to expose you, Mr. Lin, even if all you said is true, many people in Huaxia can afford luxury brands, but certainly not you, right? Let me ask you, what do you do? I see you’re not at work, why do you have time to visit us in the United Kingdom, you’re not unemployed, are you?"

He felt he was being very humorous and chuckled to himself.

However, his royal companions felt his words were a bit too much and did not join in the laughter.

That was awkward.

Westerners are like this, they can mock people, but they must use humor for satire, so everyone can enjoy it, while straightforward mockery is considered discriminatory.

One could say, this is hypocrisy.

Lin Fan said, "Someone having a lot of free time could certainly be unemployed or a royal member who doesn’t need to work from birth."

Haha!

John Parkinson couldn’t help but burst out laughing, Lin Fan’s irony hit his funny bone; they were indeed a bunch of royal members not needing to work, which was too amusing.

John Parkinson immediately realized his lack of decorum and apologized, "I apologize."

Lin Fan continued, "And I’m neither, I am a different thing, I have a job but also free time because my work is very flexible, I work if I want to, and if not, I don’t."

Prince Harry quickly chimed in, "Are there such good jobs in the world? Let me guess, Mr. Lin, are you... a boss?"

Only a boss could choose to work when they want and not work when they don’t.

Lin Fan nodded, "I am indeed a boss."

"Is your company selling tea eggs?" Prince Potter continued to ridicule, determined to make Lin Fan embarrassed; only by seeing Lin Fan embarrassed would he feel at ease.

The Queen warned again, "Potter?"

Lin Fan said, "We have many bosses in Huaxia who sell tea eggs and get rich through hard work, they are remarkable and deserve respect. But my company doesn’t sell tea eggs; we are a Technology Company."

Ah?

Everyone was greatly surprised.

Lin Fan turned out to be a Technology Company boss?

From Lin Fan’s attire, one really couldn’t guess!

Prince Harry seemed very interested, "Mr. Lin, your company does technology? What kind of technology do you focus on, because I’m also interested in new technology."

Lin Fan said, "Well, our business scope is quite broad, currently our main businesses include aerospace, chip development, and new energy vehicle development, etc."

Prince Harry’s eyes lit up, "Sounds impressive!"

Lin Fan smiled, "It’s alright."

Huaxia People, humble!

Prince Potter didn’t believe Lin Fan, Lin Fan is the boss of a Technology Company? Also developing chips and new energy vehicles, and aviation company?

How’s that possible!

Prince Potter said, "Mr. Lin, so your company must be sizable then, does it have the scale of 1 billion Huaxia Coin? What’s the exchange rate of Huaxia Coin to Euro, oh right, 10 million Euros?"

Just a 10 million Euro Technology Company, isn’t that laughable, even an aviation company, might not afford a plane wheel!

Lin Fan said, "The scale is not really big, because many of our new businesses are in their beginning stages, not comparable to industry giants, still catching up. Currently, our market value is about 300 billion Huaxia Coin, exchange to Euro... oh right, around 30 billion Euros."

Huaxia People, humble.

Ah?

Everyone present was petrified.

billion Euros!

Oh my, Lin Fan owns a 30 billion Euro company!

This was too much; this market value exceeded the combined wealth of all royal members...

Originally thought Lin Fan was Bronze, who knew he turned out to be a King!

Prince Potter’s sense of superiority in wealth was pulverized instantly.

It turns out, Lin Fan was the wealthiest person present!

If Lin Fan really owns a company valued at 30 billion Euros, then everything Lin Fan said earlier appears so correct, so full of wisdom.

On Lin Fan, the humility and thrift of Huaxia People were perfectly embodied.

For a moment, these royal members dressed in fancy outfits, using noble tableware, enjoying exquisite dinner, all felt a bit embarrassed in front of Lin Fan.

Having money truly feels good.

"Speaking of money, reminded me of something," Lin Fan smiled, "I heard the business of the Smith family is connected with royal members, Prince Potter, do you know about this?"

Lin Fan originally was not planning to bring this up, but Prince Potter insisted, so Lin Fan wasn’t polite.

Prince Potter suddenly felt like his tail was stepped on, feeling incredibly uncomfortable.

"Haha, I don’t know what Mr. Lin is talking about!" Of course, Prince Potter wouldn’t admit that he had business dealings with Smith; it’s such a loss of face, money was lost, but face shouldn’t be.

Lin Fan uttered an "oh" sound, "Then perhaps I heard wrong, someone must be losing big on this one, as long as it’s not present, I’m relieved."
