Protagonist:

Li Xiulan

Wang Xiaohua accepted the renovation on his end, specifically went to check the installed surveillance, found no issues, then settled the final payment with Foreman Liu, and went to meet up with Wang Erhai.

Wang Erhai had already returned to Zhang Yueran's house by this time.

Wang Xiaohua took a tricycle over there.

At this moment, Wang Erhai and Zhang Yueran were cooking lunch together.

Zhang Yueran was washing vegetables, and couldn't help but mutter a sentence:

"Originally planned to go on a honeymoon trip during this summer vacation, didn't expect that in the end we didn't go anywhere, and don't know when we'll be able to go."

Wang Erhai felt quite guilty about this.

He knew Zhang Yueran had prepared a lot for this honeymoon trip, and held great expectations in her heart.

But who could have imagined that his father Wang Zhanggen would suddenly be diagnosed with cancer?

Right now Wang Zhanggen's condition — no one knows the specific situation; at this time having Wang Erhai accompany Zhang Yueran on a trip is obviously not very realistic.

"Yueran, it's all my fault. How about we wait a few days, after my dad goes back for the immune cell infusion, we'll see how his condition is; if it improves a bit, we'll start the trip."

But Zhang Yueran said:

"Better not. Just afraid that halfway through the trip, something might happen to your dad, and then we'd have to rush back in a hurry. This matter can only wait for later."

Actually, giving up this trip itinerary was proposed by Zhang Yueran on her own initiative.

Because she knew that even if Wang Erhai really accompanied her on the trip, he probably wouldn't be at ease in his heart.

She didn't want Wang Erhai to accompany her on a honeymoon trip while burdened with heavy worries; that way, it would be no fun at all.

Hearing this, Wang Erhai was deeply moved:

"Yueran, you're too considerate. Having you is wonderful!"

Wang Erhai couldn't help but take the initiative to kiss Zhang Yueran.

Zhang Yueran responded shyly, then said:

"Since we're not going on the honeymoon trip, let's take advantage of this summer vacation to properly nurture our bodies!"

Wang Erhai was stunned:

"Nurture our bodies for what?"

Zhang Yueran laughed and scolded:

"You fool. Of course it's for pregnancy preparation. Starting today, you have to quit smoking!"

Wang Erhai hurriedly reacted:

"Oh oh, okay okay. Then I'll quit smoking starting today! Anyway, I'm not working at Liguo Mountain anymore, social engagements are fewer, quitting smoking shouldn't be anything difficult!"

The two were just talking when the doorbell rang.

Wang Erhai quickly said:

"Should be my Third Brother arriving. I'll go open the door!"

Wang Erhai came to the entrance door, opened it, and sure enough it was his Third Brother Wang Xiaohua.

"Third Brother, how did the renovation turn out?"

Wang Xiaohua said:

"Renovated quite well, pretty satisfied. I've already settled the final payment with Foreman Liu."

Wang Erhai was surprised:

"Where did you get the money? No need for you to pay the final payment; I'll help you settle it!"

Wang Xiaohua said:

"You might not believe it, but after the college entrance exam ended, the endorsement fee Uncle Chunsheng gave me — I still haven't spent it all to this day."

Wang Erhai couldn't help but complain:

"You're too frugal. Spend when you should. If money's not enough you can ask me and your Big Brother anytime!"

Wang Xiaohua said:

"Second Brother, spending money — I have my own plans. This time thanks for helping me find the construction team. Good thing the renovation's already done. You don't know — today my wife's relatives came making trouble again. If the renovation wasn't finished, who knows what they'd stir up. Now that it's done, they can't do anything, can only accept the fact they get nothing."

Wang Erhai said:

"That's all thanks to you, Third Brother, planning ahead. Anyone else probably couldn't have acted this fast!... I'll go cook. You sit here a while. In a bit we'll eat lunch together!"

Wang Erhai busied himself in the kitchen.

He and Zhang Yueran talked and laughed, one washing vegetables, one stir-frying.

Wang Xiaohua sat on the living room sofa. Through the kitchen's glass door, watching Second Brother and Sister-in-law's backs, his nose suddenly turned sour.

How he wished he could have such a scene with Li Jianjia.

Only pity — that possibility no longer exists.

Lunch had just finished when Wang Erhai received a call from Zhang Gui, the back kitchen manager of Huangsheng Hotel.

"General Manager Wang, I'm the back kitchen manager of Huangsheng Hotel. My name is Zhang Gui. I heard from my Uncle that your agricultural products company has already been established. My Uncle asked me to contact you to connect on the matter of agricultural product procurement."

This Zhang Gui is Zhang Sheng's nephew, and it's precisely because of this connection that he could sit in the position of Huangsheng Hotel's back kitchen manager.

People who've worked in hotels all know: in a hotel, the position with the most oil and water is food ingredient procurement.

Such a position naturally cannot be given to an outsider, so Zhang Sheng gave it to his own relative.

"Hello Manager Zhang. On my end, the company formalities have indeed all been processed. We can already operate normally to the outside."

Wang Erhai spoke truthfully.

Zhang Gui said:

"Then how about we connect this afternoon? I'll go to your farm and take a look at the quality of your goods."

Wang Erhai happily agreed:

"No problem, just come on over! The free-range chickens I raise will absolutely satisfy you!"

After hanging up Zhang Gui's call, Wang Erhai told Zhang Yueran that he had to make a trip back to Shangou Village; this agricultural products company had just been established on its first day and hadn't even officially announced it was open for business yet, yet this business had already taken the initiative to come knocking!

However, although this was unexpected, it was also perfectly reasonable!

After all, previously Wang Erhai and Zhang Sheng had reached an agreement: Wang Erhai would transfer 11% of Liguo Mountain's shares to him, and in return, Zhang Sheng's Huangsheng Hotel would procure food ingredients from Wang Erhai.

Although Zhang Sheng was a cunning merchant, he was also not a petty person who went back on his word.

Wang Erhai transferred 11% equity to him, letting him directly grasp Liguo Mountain's decision-making authority.

In today's Liguo Mountain, although Zhang Tianhe's side had parachuted in a Market Department, Huo Guoqiang had been trying to find a way to unite with Zhang Tianhe to sanction Zhang Sheng and Wu Moli; helplessly, the shares of Zhang Sheng and Wu Moli added together were still much more than the shares of Huo Guoqiang and Zhang Tianhe added together.

So any policy unfavorable to Zhang Sheng, once proposed, would be directly vetoed by Zhang Sheng and Wu Moli at the shareholders' meeting.

Huo Guoqiang previously went after Wang Erhai like that, thinking he could completely control Liguo Mountain, yet never expected that now he'd had the peach plucked by this old fox Zhang Sheng.

His decision-making authority in Liguo Mountain was getting smaller and smaller, and work was getting more and more unsatisfying.

Wang Erhai gave Zhang Sheng such a great benefit, so Zhang Sheng would naturally fulfill the agreement and have Huangsheng Hotel procure food ingredients from Wang Erhai.

So when he learned Wang Erhai's agricultural products company was established, he immediately called Zhang Gui, telling Zhang Gui to hurry over and connect with Wang Erhai.

To show sincerity, he also told Zhang Gui that as long as he went to the farm, inspected the goods, and found no problem, then he should sign a long-term cooperation agreement with Wang Erhai's agricultural products company.

Of course, this wasn't him doing charity.

The reason he did this was to display full sincerity, directly locking Wang Erhai in, lest Huo Guoqiang go and pull Wang Erhai back into Liguo Mountain again.

If Wang Erhai returned to Liguo Mountain, then there would likely be variables again.

At that time, whether he could still control the company would be hard to say.
