Chapter 946 Different cultures, different concepts
Author: Khurav
If we say that the reaction at home in Irvine, Los Angeles, to Li Yinxin's arrival was intense, then after returning to Texas, the atmosphere at home immediately ushered in a polar reversal.
Grandpa, who had quit smoking for many years, started holding cigarettes again. Even after seeing Carter get his military uniform back, grandma, who was usually almost obedient, was just silent at this time.
As for Carter, he was dragged to the small lawn outside the house by two unscrupulous old uncles.
"Are you really sure you want to marry a child like that?!"
"Although, according to the legal provisions of Texas, it is not impossible, but you are a bit, oh my God, there has never been a precedent for such a young child to get married in Grapevine! This will cause a sensation.
!”
One on the left and one on the right, O'Neill and Ni were double-teamed, looking particularly embarrassed. However, as Grandpa said, perhaps these two people were unscrupulous in nature.
They are actually thinking about how to help themselves accomplish this?!
"Uncle, you misunderstood! I'm not in such a hurry. It's just an inspection period now. I'll bring it back to you first and let you see. It's really like this! I'm not a scumbag, how could I treat such a young person like you?
The child has bad intentions."
Carter was a little helpless, and having to explain over and over again made Carter lose his patience. However, the issues that should be explained clearly must still be explained clearly!
"I just have some business cooperation with her father now. Well, the cooperation is not bad! I am very optimistic about the future development of their family's business. It happens that her family also has the idea of forging a marriage. This
No, let’s just get in touch and see if it’s suitable? This matter hasn’t been decided yet!”
"Well, actually, I brought her to Grapevine to see you this time because I want you to meet and listen to your thoughts. It's also because I'm going to New York soon and I have some things to do, which may be temporary.
I don’t have time to take care of her, and Jenny is still in shock and can’t get over it. I can only think of you, bring her here, and you will help take care of her, I will feel relieved!”
"It's nothing to help you take care of your children. Oni and I don't have enough time to do this every day. You'd better think about it! You've grown up now and have more experience than us. No matter what decision you make,
We support you! If you need help, call me!”
Patting Carter on the shoulder, the two old uncles felt psychologically confident. After all, they grew up in the era when hippie culture was at its most rampant. In terms of morals and ethics,
Carter has reason to suspect that these two people, plus his cheap dad who has already burped, are probably the lowest-end members of this family. Coupled with the weird legal regulations in the United States,
It’s not difficult for them to accept it!
After spending another two days visiting the mayor of the town, and through the admission recommendation letter issued by the mayor and Uncle Oni's guarantee, Carter arranged for little Yinxin to transfer to Grapevine's elementary school.
After all, I want to be a big short this time
Carter didn't remember much information. He just remembered that there was a major stock market crash in 1987. But on what day the stock market crash happened, Carter's impression was better than nothing. So, conservatively estimated, this time it might take up to half a year!
Carter can't let Li Yinxin play around like a crazy girl for such a long time, right?! This may be his future wife after all! The standard must be higher!
"I can see that your family is a little panicked about my sister's arrival!"
On the private plane to New York, Lee Jae-yong, who had been a transparent person for a long time, finally remembered that he had a sister.
"By the way, my dad called me and said that the money you need has been transferred to ROG's account. When you need it, just transfer it directly from there!"
"I know about this, thank your dad for me! And your old man for his support! As for Yin Xin, it's normal for them to find it hard to accept such a sudden visit! But it's not a big problem, you don't need to worry about it.
question!"
"The national conditions and culture of the United States are completely different from those of your East Asian countries. To put it bluntly, many people in the United States have no concept of child marriage! More than half of the states in the United States do not have a legal minimum age limit for marriage.
Although in marriage registration, the general requirement is that you need to be 17 or 18 years old, but that is only a regulation on the autonomy of marriage!"
"It means that the parties involved can decide the age at which they will get married?"
"Well, if both parents agree, then the youngest couple in the history of Grapevine are 13 and 11 years old! Texas is a state that does not stipulate a minimum age for marriage! In other words, like me and
In Xiao Yinxin’s situation, as long as both parents agree, I can register the marriage with her in the United States at any time! Of course, I won’t do that. I just want to say that this kind of cultural atmosphere will make their psychology better.
Be more accepting!"
In terms of age concerns and moral requirements, the most serious one is myself!
Whether it is the marriage laws of the United States or the requirement in South Korea that a woman must be at least 16 years old to register for marriage, a person like Carter must be at least 19 years old to register for marriage. In fact,
In Carter's previous life, when he was growing up, people generally didn't get married until they were around 27 or 8 years old. Carter himself was resistant and repulsive to marrying a teenage boy!
"Okay, I believe you can handle these things! Oh, by the way, you have been saying that you want to do something big. I asked you before, but you didn't tell me. Can you tell me now?"
Regarding Li Yinxin, who at least could not threaten his sister for the time being, Li Zaiyong did not care about her situation. Likewise, when it became increasingly clear that this candidate could hardly be replaced by Li Fuzhen.
Lee Jae-yong calmed down his emotions instantly!
Since that "scourge" cannot be eliminated at once, then, while now, while that "scourge" is being kept in cold storage due to disobedience to the family, the most important thing for him to do now is to seize the opportunity to develop and develop!
Similarly, when Grandpa asked him to follow Carter to the United States, he might not have thought of taking advantage of this situation to expand his contacts and structure. If you do this well, you can gain a lot of points when you return, right?
"Well, I actually want you to observe and judge for yourself what I'm going to do. However, it doesn't hurt to tell you in advance! Have you ever heard of short selling?"
"Of course I've heard of it! Why do you look so strange in your eyes?!"
"I thought you Koreans, except for those in the United States, don't know much about financial knowledge, even if it's just a simple concept!"
Indeed, according to Carter's contacts, there is basically no sound of securities trading in South Korea at this time. Coupled with the series of foreign investment restrictions or restrictions on import and export trade.
If it weren't for the presence of several US military bases there, in many aspects today's South Korea would be almost like a closed country!
This land should be a financial desert!
"South Korea also has a stock exchange, but the trading volume is definitely not as good as New York! In fact, it's time to bring Xu Xian here this time. She has always wanted to come to the United States."
