Yu Chengyuan followed the path to the quaint pavilion, where he saw his father-in-law engrossed in a game of chess with an old man with white hair.
The black and white chess pieces crisscrossed on the board, like a silent war.
Neither of them spoke, nor did they even sense his arrival.
Anyone who has played chess knows that you are completely focused on the chessboard, and everything around you is irrelevant.
Yu Chengyuan knew he shouldn't be disturbed at this moment, so he stood quietly to the side, but his eyes were unconsciously drawn to the chess game.
He silently assessed the situation in his mind. Although he was confident in his chess skills, he still adhered to the principle of observing the game without speaking.
He could tell at a glance that the white-haired old man's chess skills were slightly inferior, while his father-in-law was slightly better.
Time slipped away quietly as the chess pieces rose and fell, and finally, the game ended in victory for the father-in-law.
"Principal Liu, you still win!"
Ugh, I can never scare you enough!
The white-haired old man laughed heartily, showing no sign of dejection after his defeat.
"Thank you for your concession, I was lucky enough to win three of your pieces."
Come on, let's play another round.
"My father-in-law said with a smile."
"father in law………
"The business is done, we should head back now."
Seeing that his father-in-law was enjoying himself and hadn't noticed him, Yu Chengyuan had no choice but to interrupt him.
It seems my father-in-law is also a great lover of chess.
When I have free time, I can also play a couple of games with my father-in-law.
He used to watch other people play chess, and that's how he naturally learned it.
Liu Jianguo then looked up and saw Yu Chengyuan beside him. He smiled apologetically and put down the chess piece in his hand.
"Brother Chen, I have something to do. I'll keep you company next time."
Yu Chengyuan politely addressed the old man as "Grandpa Chen," and then left with his father-in-law.
On their way home, sunlight filtered through the leaves, casting dappled patterns on them.
The father-in-law and son-in-law chatted casually.
"Xiao Yu, how did your talk with Minister Qian go?"
"Has he agreed to your cooperation proposal?" my father-in-law asked with concern.
Yu Chengyuan smiled slightly and said, "It went smoothly enough, the contract has been signed."
"It's a one-year contract. Here's the contract and tomorrow's checklist."
Yu Chengyuan handed the contract and list in his hand to his father-in-law.
Liu Jianguo took it, looked at it carefully, and showed an approving look. "Xiao Yu, not bad!"
Congratulations on securing two big orders today.
Although the profit margin may not seem large on the surface, the volume is huge!
The total is still quite considerable.
He could see clearly on the order that the demand for vegetables was two or three hundred kilograms, not including other items, just vegetables alone.
"Thank you, father-in-law. I will definitely do my best."
"But where do you get so many vegetables every day?"
Liu Jianguo asked worriedly.
Breaching a contract after signing it will result in compensation, which is no small matter.
“Father-in-law, don’t worry, I will go and collect it, and I also have another idea.”
I plan to encourage all the villagers to grow vegetables, on a large scale, and I'll be responsible for buying them all.
"However, the villagers may not be willing to do this right away, because most of them still prefer to grow grain."
But I'll plant them myself and my family first, and when everyone sees them, they'll plant them too.
In this way, I not only made money, but also helped my fellow villagers make money.
What do you think of my idea?
"Yes, Xiaoyu, your idea is really good. It benefits the people and is a great thing."
I'm the first to support you.
Liu Jianguo never expected his son-in-law to have such foresight and vision at such a young age.
And that extraordinary courage.
How many young people these days have such courage?
His refusal of the comfortable and stable job they offered him demonstrates that he is a person with strong opinions and courage.
Yu Chengyuan was unaware that his words had won his father-in-law's appreciation and approval.
Liu Jianguo felt a pang of guilt as he recalled how they had refused to see their son-in-law every time they visited over the years.
They recalled how reluctant the couple had been to let their daughter marry this young man from the countryside.
The belief that he has no future is also due to his complicated family background.
They feared he couldn't give his daughter happiness or protect their only child.
Fortunately, the daughter has her own opinions and did not listen to her parents.
Looking back now, I think my daughter had a pretty good eye for talent.
At least we didn't miss out on this ambitious and responsible young man.
"Thank you for the compliment, Father-in-law. Let's hurry back and tell Mother-in-law and Su-lan the good news!"
Yu Chengyuan said with a smile.
He thought that as long as he succeeded, his mother-in-law would stop trying to find him a job.
"Okay, let's quicken our pace and get back quickly."
Liu Jianguo nodded, and the two of them walked in unison, arriving home in no time.
As soon as he entered the house, Liu Jianguo shouted, "Ahong, I have good news for you."
The son-in-law signed the contract and secured the vegetable supply contract for the school cafeteria.
Come out and see for yourself!
"Father-in-law, isn't that a bit of an exaggeration?"
"It's nothing big, this is just the beginning!"
Yu Chengyuan felt a little embarrassed after being yelled at so loudly by his father-in-law.
It's not like becoming the top scholar in ancient times; this is just a small matter.
Upon hearing the noise, Yvonne Yung came out of her daughter's room and gently closed the door.
"Shh, Lao Liu, why are you shouting so loudly?"
Tangtang had just fallen asleep, and Sulan had also just fallen asleep beside her.
