What?
Jiang Baiying's father wants to treat herself to a meal?
So sudden?
Xia Yu had three questions in his mind. When did this big shot, whom he had never met, notice a small fry like him? He didn't do anything to his daughter!
Even though he couldn't figure it out, he definitely couldn't go.
Xia Yu could still chat with young people in their twenties and thirties like He Jiawen and Lu Zhou, but he had no confidence at all with Jiang Baiying's father.
These old hands who have been in the business world for many years are very experienced and not easy to fool. Perhaps you can find out his true intentions with just a few words, so this appointment must not be kept.
Thinking of this, Xia Yu made a decision in his heart.
Maybe there will be a chance to meet in the future, but it is better for him to develop slowly now. Once he has all his industries, he can stand on equal footing with these big guys, instead of just being an "empty shell" like now.
Excluding cheap items like watches and cars, Xia Yu's assets, including two houses and a farm, must be worth over 100 million.
There is no way to sell or mortgage them, and they cannot generate economic value for the time being. It is no exaggeration to say that these industries are empty shells. However, forming an industrial chain from farm output to restaurant operations is a good start for Xia Yu.
In the future, he will invest in and incubate more industries, expanding his business from domestic to overseas. Whether or not to make money is not the first priority; expanding the business is the most important thing.
This can help accumulate more business operation experience, complicate the background, and blur the impact of system rewards.
In the past, when Xia Yu read novels that rewarded hundreds of buildings at the beginning, he would worry about the protagonists.
You have to know that it is very dangerous to have wealth that does not match your position. I heard from others that when my hometown was demolished and houses were distributed, some people were given three or four houses and hundreds of thousands of yuan. Not long after, their sons were dragged away to gamble. They either borrowed high-interest loans or owed huge gambling debts. It was like a pig being slaughtered, and they were back to the time before liberation.
This is just the amount of money for a few houses, let alone hundreds of buildings. If anyone really has hundreds of buildings, who among them is not a tough guy with a strong family background?
Xia Yu had to hide his small assets, revealing them to his parents bit by bit like squeezing toothpaste. On the one hand, this was to make it easier for his parents to accept, and on the other hand, it was to make things more reasonable, rather than suddenly becoming rich and attracting the attention of those with ulterior motives.
All the relationships he built up in Shanghai were new, just like when he suddenly took out an old villa before, He Jiawen would just take it for granted.
"My apologies, classmate Jiang. There's a lot going on at the restaurant, with renovations and hiring. I don't have much time this month, and I haven't done anything. Uncle doesn't need to hire me specifically."
After thinking about the wording, Xia Yu spoke and also asked the reason for the invitation.
"It's okay, senior. Just go about your business. I'll talk to my dad. He wants to hire you mainly because you've always helped pick me up and drop me off, and you even sent me fish for the Dragon Boat Festival."
So that's how it is. But Jiang Baiying's father is complaining that I have robbed him of the wonderful time of picking up and dropping off his daughter!
Xia Yu was also a smart man and saw through the essence of the problem at a glance. However, he didn't expect that his good intentions would lead to bad results and attract the attention of the other person's father. Fortunately, he turned it down temporarily.
Jiang Baiying was not angry about his rejection, but felt relieved instead.
Her little brain couldn't imagine the scene of Xia Yu and his father sitting together. That must be scary, right?
After talking about the dinner, Jiang Baiying actually didn't say one thing, which was that she was going to study abroad in the second half of the year.
The words were on the tip of her tongue but she couldn't say them, which made her in a bad mood throughout the journey, and Xia Yu noticed this.
"What's wrong? Do you want me to go? Next month, I will definitely go next month."
Xia Yu thought Jiang Baiying was depressed because he refused to keep the appointment, so he tried to persuade her.
His restaurant will open next month. Having an industry means having experience. No matter how much he has, he can compete with the big guys, which can be considered a kind of experience.
Seeking stability and becoming the world's richest man is one option, and when business is about the same, taking the initiative is another option.
Xia Yu chose the latter which was risky, but isn’t this the fun of growing up?
Considering everything as a game called Monopoly Earth OL, Jiang Baiying's father is the first big BOSS that Xia Yu has to face. Only after "defeating" him can Xia Yu challenge the lower levels one by one until he meets the richest BOSS in the country like Er Ma.
Only by defeating them both can you change the map and layout the world until you win the whole game.
It sounds a bit like the routine of upgrade novels, but who knows what the future will be like?
"Senior, it doesn't matter if you don't go."
After hearing Jiang Baiying say this, Xia Yu knew that he had misunderstood. There was another reason for her low mood.
A woman's heart is as unfathomable as a needle in the sea. Even though Jiang Baiying's mind has always been simple, Xia Yu couldn't guess it.
If you can't guess it, don't guess. He will have a way to know it later anyway. This is more reliable than guessing blindly.
When they arrived at the farm gate, only Xiao Hei came to greet Xia Yu and Jiang Baiying. Uncle Tai was rarely absent.
"That's strange. Where did Uncle Tai go? Xiao Hei, do you know?"
As if he understood what Xia Yu said, Xiao Heiwang let out a cry and led the two of them to run next door, until they saw Uncle Tai and a middle-aged woman in simple clothes sitting on a swing at Wanfeng Farm.
"Woo~~"
Seeing Xiao Hei trying to come forward and bark, Xia Yu grabbed it and covered its mouth, so that only its whimpering could be heard.
"Let's go back and don't disturb Uncle Tai."
Picking up Xiao Hei, Xia Yu whispered to Jiang Baiying.
Uncle Tai is almost sixty years old, but he still has such good luck in love. As the boss, Xia Yu can't let this interfere.
Xia Yu had learned about this when chatting with Uncle Tai before. He was a soldier in his early years. After retiring, he returned to his hometown to farm. He got married, but his wife died of illness before he had children.
Uncle Tai never remarried until he was hired by Wang Dalong and came to Chaolu Farm more than 20 years ago. Even after the boss changed, he still stayed here.
"That should be Aunt Wang's cousin, Aunt Wang. My dad said the farm has been handed over to her."
Back at Chaolu Farm, Jiang Baiying explained.
"That's great! I didn't expect that there would be a chance for our two farms to become related."
Xia Yu couldn't help but teased.
"But Aunt Wang can't do it alone. You need to get her a dog, preferably a female. It will be a perfect match for our Xiao Hei. Then you can raise a group of dogs and manage them in the future."
The teasing was not enough, he continued to give suggestions.
The two farms together cover nearly 500 acres, so we need to raise a few more dogs to manage them.
"Then I'll go back and tell my dad?"
"No, I'll talk to Uncle Tai and ask him to go to town to buy one, so he won't have to bother me."
Xia Yu took on this task as a way to benefit his employees.
