Picking Up Supreme Treasures in the Dream Realm-Chapter 679 - 396. Contemporary Shennong, wealth at the trillion level

Chapter 679: 396. Contemporary Shennong, wealth at the trillion level

Facing his wife Deng Qin’s skepticism.

Zhou Xinrong said just one sentence: "I was Yang Chairman’s high school classmate, how could he not know me?"

Deng Qin was taken aback: "Really?"

Zhou Xinrong nodded: "Why would I lie to you? There’s even a high school graduation photo on my Penguin Space, both Yang Chairman and I are in it."

Deng Qin’s lips moved as if she was about to say something.

Zhou Xinrong immediately knew his wife wanted him to use that classmates’ connection to get Yang Chairman to help him out.

He quickly interjected: "But when I was in school, I bullied Yang Chairman a few times."

Deng Qin’s glance suddenly turned very peculiar: "How did you bully him?"

Zhou Xinrong gave an example: "Once during self-study at night, I smeared ink all over Yang Chairman’s glasses, making the whole class laugh at him."

When he said this, he completely forgot how pleased he was at that time, feeling a smug joy of "being able to lord over others."

Deng Qin couldn’t hold it in anymore and eventually burst out, "Geez, hubby, you must have a big mental problem!"

She didn’t forget to add, "Those people who laughed at Yang Chairman, every single one of them is a big fool!"

Zhou Xinrong glared at his wife and retorted: "You’re the one with a mental problem, dammit!"

But his words lacked conviction.

The host’s voice continued to emerge from the television.

"...The 150 billion Xia Yuan jointly invested by Silver Group will be used for acquiring, renovating, and constructing more indoor farms.

"Currently Celestial Star Agriculture oversees more than 3,500 indoor farms, and it is expected that in a year there will be over 40,000 indoor farms, a more than tenfold increase!

"By that time, Celestial Star Agriculture’s indoor farms will be spread across over twenty provinces nationwide, making Celestial Star Agriculture one of the country’s top ten in scale."

Anyone familiar with the new agriculture industry knows that being in the top ten in Great Xia is a heavyweight globally.

Deng Qin marveled: "Yang Chairman’s hit it big!"

Zhou Xinrong had a hint of disagreement: "I think it’s mainly because of national support. Without those 150 billion goals, how could Celestial Star Agriculture get so big?"

Deng Qin retorted: "Why doesn’t the state support Green Union Agriculture, which is being redeveloped in the mall next door, but chooses to support Yang Chairman’s company?"

Zhou Xinrong was stumped.

Deng Qin was persuasive: "In the end, it’s your classmate who’s really impressive, probably has made something extraordinary, that’s why the state is supporting them heavily, that’s why the agriculture channel invited Yang Chairman to appear."

Zhou Xinrong was silent.

Deng Qin continued: "Ordinary people usually only have a few chances in their life to change their fate. Yang Chairman was originally your biggest chance, but you missed it."

Zhou Xinrong wasn’t convinced: "When I was in high school, Yang Chairman was always quiet. Who would’ve known he’d be successful now?"

Deng Qin spat: "Just because he’s quiet, he should be bullied? Had you shown a bit of kindness and helped Yang Chairman, you’d be reaping ten thousand times the rewards today!"

She paused and concluded: "I think you just don’t have the destiny to be rich in your life!"

Zhou Xinrong was a little angry and embarrassed being accused: "You’re despising me for not being able to make money, as if you’re capable of it yourself. Aren’t you the same?"

He "hmphed" and stormed off to the bedroom.

Actually, Zhou Xinrong knew Yang Fan had become a billionaire long ago, he just hadn’t told his wife.

Some time ago, he went on a business trip to the Capital with his boss and, by chance, ran into Yang Fan and that incredibly pretty female secretary at the airport.

The female secretary even came over on purpose and said Yang Chairman wanted to invite him to dinner, but how could he have the face to accept?

Zhou Xinrong still remembers the strange look his boss gave him.

Like he was looking at a big fool!

At this moment.

Zhou Xinrong originally wanted to continue playing games, but Yang Fan’s face on the TV screen was etched in his mind, so he had no mood to play.

He was stubborn in front of his wife, but deep down, he couldn’t deny his regret.

Because his wife was right, it was the biggest opportunity of his life, yet youthful arrogance and recklessness ruined it.

Zhou Xinrong sighed and his ears perked up to the man’s voice drifting in from the living room.

"That’s all for the introduction of Celestial Star Agriculture, after all, this is the agriculture channel, not the financial channel.

"Now let’s get back to the main topic, everyone might be very curious as to why Celestial Star Agriculture received a 150 billion investment from Silver Group.

"That’s the core of today’s program, which should be what the viewers at home are most eager to know."

The male host paused, then said: "We are very honored to have invited Celestial Star Agriculture’s Chairman, also Great Xia’s youngest billionaire, Yang Fan, Chairman Yang, to personally answer questions for everyone."

The female host’s voice smoothly followed: "But before Chairman Yang answers the questions, we need a key prop that will make it easier for everyone to understand."

Zhou Xinrong listened with curiosity written all over his face.

What key prop?

He kind of wanted to go to the living room to watch TV but was reluctant to face his wife.

Suddenly, an idea flashed in Zhou Xinrong’s mind: "Right, it should be streaming online."

Just turn the sound off and I won’t have to worry about my wife finding out.

He quickly opened a software, searched, and found the agriculture channel’s live stream as he wished.
