Chapter 445: Chapter 361: Opening a Store (Subscribe please!)_1
These green crabs, each appearing exceptionally ’ferocious’, were lively and active. To prevent them from hurting his family, Tang Qing bound their pincers with rope, wrapping it around several times. Since he didn’t know how to tie the rope properly, every dumb crab ended up bundled up like a dumpling by him.
Now, the dumb crabs could only stare blankly.
After they were all distributed properly, the seafood was placed at the entrance of the training area.
Meanwhile,
Far away, the fighters who were harvesting rice had already started the threshing process. Without any farming equipment, they had to rely on manual labor and used the most primitive methods.
— They executed a vigorous strike.
Unexpectedly, this group of excessively strong fighters was extremely efficient, gathering a large stack of rice in a matter of moments.
Tang Qing was not to be outdone either; he purchased dozens of medium-sized military backpacks in the mall, then packed them with loads of fruits and vegetables. Although the matter contained wouldn’t be transmitted through consumption, Tang Qing had tasted them and found the flavor quite good. They were undoubtedly the best tastes amongst their species.
Quality stuff just naturally had to be shared with the family.
Tang Qing even considered opening a high-end vegetable shop to provide these vegetables for his family. It would avoid them from consuming foods sprayed with various pesticides out there. While they might not be lethal, they weren’t safe either, and their taste was also quite average.
Hmm, that’s worthy of consideration.
He could open a shop selling high-end fruits and vegetables in Qingyan City and price them devastatingly expensive. If people didn’t want to buy, it didn’t matter. He could also introduce a membership system to raise the entry threshold. However, it’s a bit ludicrous. Although he didn’t feel it was embarrassing, the idea of going so far as to open a vegetable shop was admittedly a bit odd.
Or should he consider regular deliveries instead?
Though it might work, considering the difference between sending and buying, Tang Qing still felt that letting them buy it themselves would be more reliable. Heck, why is he thinking so much about it? Just open one already, it wouldn’t make him lose face. Why should he be wrapped up in this?
Tang Qing ceased his hesitation.
"Little Two, have one of the fighters open a vegetable shop near my uncle’s house tomorrow. They will only sell our fruits and vegetables. Make the decoration luxurious. The price of the produce should be ten times that of common produce. Also, prepare some membership cards granting a 90% discount for me." Tang Qing ordered. He didn’t intend for others to buy it, but he didn’t know if the Bureau of Commodity Prices would intervene due to the tenfold selling price.
As for the seafood, forget it. He didn’t know yet if the effects were noticeable. If a rich man with a longstanding illness got cured, it would unleash a whole slew of eyes on him. He didn’t want to become a farm tycoon.
"Yes, commander."
Although this course of action is a bit idiotic,
It’s still within the reasonable range.
At the entrance of the training area, dozens of military backpacks were filled to the brim. It seemed a bit too much, but these weren’t just for his family, but also for his friends - Dou Jiao, Qi Yan, Sun Chao, Han Leng, Wang Yan, Li Kai, Chai Ren, Liu Qian, and others. Even his second uncle, who was far away in Bangkok, also had a share. However, besides his family, no one else received seafood.
After everything was done, Tang Qing returned to his room to rest.
The next morning.
"Auntie, I have some errands to do, so I’ll be eating breakfast outside."
Greeting his aunt who had just come downstairs, Tang Qing drove out the door, planning to send the goods to the Lin family first. Lin Jiaxue had to go to school today, so he needed to deliver her share before she went out.
Arriving at the neighborhood,
Tang Qing carried the sorted bags and parcels and went upstairs.
"Tangtang’s here, what are these things you brought? Jiaxue didn’t ask earlier." Upon seeing Tang Qing, Lin’s mother quickly took the backpack from him. Lin’s father also came over to take a look. Judging by the sounds of crashing tableware from the kitchen, Lin Jiaxue was probably washing the dishes.
Tang Qing unzipped the backpack.
The fruits, vegetables, and seafood inside were all revealed.
Tang Qing laughed, "This seafood and fruit were a gift from a friend. I heard the seafood is freshly caught and was flown here. They gave me a lot, so I brought some for you to try too. The vegetables are a new variety, free of pesticides and pollution."
"Wow, this is so large, it wasn’t cheap, right?" Lin’s mother exclaimed in surprise. She didn’t know about the taste, but the appearance was definitely top-notch.
"Yes, I heard it’s quite expensive. You guys can try it tonight and give me your feedback. Especially the crabs. I’ve tried them, they taste really good." Tang Qing said.
"Then let’s eat them tonight. By the way, Tangtang, did you have breakfast? There’s still some of the porridge that Jiaxue cooked just now left. You can eat it after it’s heated, we started eating when you called." Lin’s mother said.
"No need, I’ve bought some food on the road. Let me drive you guys to work later, and take Jiaxue to school on the way." Tang Qing said.
"Don’t you have to go to school? You won’t be late, will you?" Lin’s mother asked.
"It’s alright, my grades... it doesn’t really make a difference whether I go or not." Tang Qing laughed.
"Fair point."
Lin’s mother didn’t dwell on this further.
Afterwards, Tang Qing drove Lin’s parents to the jewelry store first.
Driving leisurely on the road with Lin Jiaxue, holding his lover’s hand in his right and feeling the spring breeze, Tang Qing was perfectly content.
"The National College Entrance Exam is in two weeks. Are you nervous?" Tang Qing softly said.
"Kind of." Lin Jiaxue nodded slightly.
"These two weeks are the only time left. You can take it easy afterwards." Tang Qing said.
"Yes, hey, isn’t that Xi Shan over there?"
Lin Jiaxue had spotted Xi Shan, who was striding forward by the side of the road. So did Tang Qing. He found it amusing because at the moment, Xi Shan was having her breakfast. No one knew what she was eating, but her mouth was full of sauce and sesame. Nevertheless, she seemed to be enjoying herself with a satisfied look on her face.
Such a carefree personality, and such a ’bold’ way of eating.
Turning on the right turn signal,
Tang Qing slowly parked the car by the roadside in front of Xi Shan.
Rolled down the car window, Lin Jiaxue waved and called out to Xi Shan in the distance, "Shan Shan, over here."
While enjoying her favorite sweet sesame cake, Xi Shan noticed Lin Jiaxue in the passenger seat. She was a bit startled as she looked at the brand new Mercedes-Benz passenger car. She looked a bit puzzled. Having watched a lot of dramas, she couldn’t help but let her imagination run away with her. Though Tang Qing had almost angered her to death on the first two occasions, he was still a reasonable person.
Xi Shan hurriedly stepped forward and said:
"Jiaxue? What are you doing... Tang Qing?" As soon as she saw that Tang Qing was driving, Xi Shan sighed in relief. It wasn’t what she had expected, which was a good thing.
"Long time no see." Tang Qing waved and laughed.
"How long could it be, only two weeks. Is this your car?" Xi Shan said somewhat annoyedly.
"No," Tang Qing shook his head.
Upon hearing this, Xi Shan immediately straightened up and said, "Humph, I knew it wasn’t yours. Could you afford it?"
"Well, I can’t afford it. Get in the car." Tang Qing touched his nose, not wanting to argue about whether he could afford a car or not.
Upon hearing this, Xi Shan smirked in delight.
I knew it.
It’s not that Xi Shan really thought Tang Qing’s family couldn’t afford it. With his demeanor and the expensive clothes he wore, it was clear his family was far from ordinary. The real reason for her being smug was that she had finally won an argument against him for once.
Xi Shan got in the car. freēwēbnovel.com
The car started to move.
Minutes later, at Lin Jiaxue’s request, they did not stop at the school gate, but at a nearby corner. Tang Qing understood; the car was noticeably luxurious and Lin Jiaxue had always been low-key at school.
After both young women got out of the car,
He watched them walk into the school gate before driving away.
"Jiaxue, whose car is this?" Once they were in school, Xi Shan couldn’t help but gossip.
Lin Jiaxue didn’t hide anything and said, "It’s his uncle’s."
"His uncle? I noticed the license plate is from Province City, does his uncle do business there?" Xi Shan asked.
Lin Jiaxue shook her head: "No, his uncle is overseas. He bought this car as a temporary vehicle when he came back last time, and now that he’s gone back, the car was left for their family to use. His uncle and aunt don’t drive, so it’s usually him who drives."
"..."
The world of the wealthy.
Xi Shan wouldn’t be honest if she said she wasn’t envious. But she also wished happiness for her best friend and hoped that Tang Qing would not let her down.
"Lin Jiaxue, good morning."
At this moment, a voice sounded from behind, and the person quickly walked to Lin Jiaxue’s side.
"Morning, Feng Sen." Lin Jiaxue replied nonchalantly.
Xi Shan, however, was not as gentle.
"Feng Sen, what are you up to now?" Xi Shan pulled Lin Jiaxue to her side, speaking in an unfriendly tone.
Seeing this,
Feng Sen felt awkward.
He was only saying hello; he had never done anything inappropriate in front of Lin Jiaxue. Why was she treating him this way?
"I... I didn’t mean to do anything." Feng Sen expressed himself with a wry smile.
Xi Shan sneered and said, "Humph, don’t think I’m not aware that you’ve been driving away the guys who had an interest in our Jiaxue. Let me tell you, Jiaxue is taken now, you have no chance."
Feng Sen was taken aback by Xi Shan’s assertiveness and helplessly said, "I know."
"What? You know?" Xi Shan asked in surprise.
Feng Sen nodded and admitted, "Of course, I know. She’s Tang brother’s girlfriend. Who dares to have ideas about our sister-in-law? I, Feng Sen, would not approve.". His tone was resolute, as if he was ready to die for his cause. At least, that’s how he felt.
"You know Tang Qing?" Xi Shan asked with a puzzled face.
This plot.
She really can’t figure it out. What type of situation is this?
Also, Tang brother?
"Of course, I found out that sister-in-law was Tang brother’s girlfriend when I was with my sister. I just wanted to help Tang brother." Feng Sen explained. Everyone was about to graduate, and Lin Jiaxue was still very close to his own cousin, so he saw no need to hide it.
"Your sister?" Xi Shan shouted.
Great, another character showed up, and it was a woman. Lin Jiaxue also frowned.
Feng Sen quickly explained, "My sister is Dou Jiao. I heard her mention sister-in-law. She said you and Tang brother are a perfect match."
Upon hearing this, Lin Jiaxue relaxed a bit. Of course, she remembered Dou Jiao. Two weeks ago, she even took her to buy a lot of clothes. Dou Jiao was so nice and warm to her. She herself was a high-ranking official, and her fiancé was a businessman. But she didn’t expect Dou Jiao to be Feng Sen’s cousin. What a coincidence!
No wonder, although Feng Sen had driven away many flies, he had never shown any interest.
"I see, thank you Feng Sen." Lin Jiaxue thanked him.
Feng Sen happily said, "Hehe, no need to be polite. If you need anything in the future, just give me a call. I, Feng Sen, will certainly not shirk. Tang brother’s business is my business."
"Okay."
