Chapter 1397: Low-key Wealth

Knowing Song Tan's current family conditions, Zheng Qu didn't feel restrained when hosting. In the gap while waiting for the dishes, he took the initiative to ask: "There are various agricultural subsidy projects in our province now. Have you applied for them?"

Song Tan nodded: "Our village secretary is very responsible, and all those that should be applied for have been. Our family has registered a family farm and a company, and currently, all projects are tax-free."

"Are there any problems with seeds? Our province has recently carried out cooperation activities with many universities. If you need any high-quality seeds, I can find someone to help inquire about new products from agricultural colleges and institutions."

"Also, when agricultural products are cultivated, if the quality is good enough, they can participate in exhibitions and get certificates. At that time, the product price will increase a lot, and many merchants will take the initiative to contact you..."

Zheng Qu was truly helping wholeheartedly.

But...

Song Tan waited silently for him to finish before replying one by one: "There is no big problem with seeds. We have reached a cooperation with Professor Song XX from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences. Currently, crop seeds and seedlings are all sent by him after contacting major bases."

This name...

Zheng Qu subconsciously Baidu Baike-ed it, then fell silent.

Just... do all those engaged in agriculture now have this kind of network? Their province hasn't invited experts of this level yet!

Not to mention Song Tan was still saying: "Currently, there are three students brought by Professor Song in the farm to follow up at any time. From breeding and fertilizer preparation to later harvesting, it is very scientific, so I don't need to worry about anything for the time being."

At this time last year, she was busy non-stop, and the whole family was spinning around. But this year, except for those in the family who couldn't stay idle, she could even have the leisure to attend a class reunion...

It can be seen that using the right people is truly beneficial!

It's a pity that Professor Song had his own things to do in the first half of the year and couldn't come over for the time being, otherwise Teacher Tang teaching Qiaoqiao piano, chess, calligraphy, and painting would still be quite respected by Qiaoqiao.

She spoke lightly, but Zheng Qu was already numb.

Good, good, good, experts are stationed, right? And this expert can even shake up more powerful big shots at any time.

He thought of the agricultural college in the province that was only a 211, and didn't know what to say.

"As for the selection... at the end of last year, Professor Song gave us a quota for the Houji seed selection, and we won a gold medal..."

Zheng Qu:...

He took a deep breath, and a standard smile appeared on his face subconsciously—if he didn't do this, he was afraid that he would really break down later, his face ferocious and ugly.

"Okay, I understand."

The Houji seed selection is a top-level exhibition in China, although only agricultural people will pay attention—for example, him. If it weren't for the slogan of "revitalizing agriculture" in the province since last year, he wouldn't have known that the country still had such a competition.

But the authority is unquestionable. The gold medal winner can even send agricultural products to international exhibitions in the next step. Major top-level restaurants will take the initiative to come and request cooperation. The random price of exhibition fruits and vegetables can be 10 times, 20 times, or even more than the market price...

However, what Zheng Qu didn't know was that Song Tan had rejected those who came to talk about cooperation.

Top-level restaurants give the highest price, but limited by the supply volume, if they want to reach cooperation, she might have to send countless items from all over the country every day, and the labor cost and error rate will increase greatly.

Instead, it's Boss Chang, who doesn't seek fame or Michelin levels but is willing to spend, who not only gives a price worthy of a gold medal but also doesn't require any trouble with contracts or anything...

A heaven-sent partner.

The only bad thing is that he probably has the mentality of a sparrow marrying into a wealthy family, always afraid that Song Tan will find a better partner and dump him, so he watches very closely...

Not to mention anything else, he knows exactly how many cattle, sheep, chickens, and ducks are in the river beach pasture!

At this moment, Song Tan probably finished talking about these and sincerely thanked Zheng Qu: "Monitor, thank you for considering us so thoughtfully."

Regardless of whether it can be used or not, Zheng Qu neither stood high and commanded with a "fatherly" tone, nor did he force others to be good without listening to the reasons. In all aspects, he was providing help from an agricultural perspective...

Just this kindness alone had already surpassed many people.

She looked at Lu Chuan, who also nodded with a smile, clearly having kept the gift for Zheng Qu in mind.

Huo Xueying watched from the side and also felt honored—her boyfriend being recognized by her favorite friend proved that her vision was good, so of course she was happy!

She held Song Tan's hand and exhorted repeatedly: "Although you look good even in a sack now, don't really dress like a sack! It's not popular to be low-key now; everyone is so snobbish! Dress beautifully! You must dress beautifully!"

Song Tan nodded, taking Huo Xueying's thoughts very seriously: "Okay, okay, okay! Don't worry, Lu Chuan has good taste; I'll take him shopping tomorrow!"

Really?

Huo Xueying turned her head to look at Lu Chuan's attire—quite simple, a white shirt with a slight thickness, a black short-sleeved shirt inside, black pants that looked like jeans but not quite, and white casual sneakers...

She couldn't see the mulberry silk brocade short-sleeved shirt and finely tailored white shirt on him, nor could she recognize the cashmere and mulberry silk blended pants and the brand of shoes.

Huo Xueying didn't know much about brands, but good things are visibly different from luster to tailoring. At the very least, Lu Chuan's outfit was clearly superior to Zheng Qu's Heilan Home outfit, completely different.

Besides that, there were no decorations on him, only a face as white as jade and thick black eyebrows. Looking closely, there was a kind of breathtaking beauty.

But none of these affected the perception Lu Chuan brought to people—

Such a fresh, youthful, and pure outfit!

Boys who dare to dress like this generally don't have too bad taste. Huo Xueying felt slightly relieved.

But to be honest, this kind of pure boy-next-door outfit could really crush everyone. Huo Xueying watched silently for a while, trying to replace Zheng Qu's head in her mind to feel the effect...

A moment later, she withdrew her gaze.

Forget it, there is still a gap between a pure boy-next-door and an old cucumber painted with green lacquer.

But then again—

"Lu Chuan, who is older, you or Zheng Qu?"

Lu Chuan smiled: "I'm 30 this year."

Zheng Qu, who was slowly pouring tea into a thermos cup on the side, wearing a gray administrative-style jacket with a white shirt inside, showing a calm and mature style, felt his face was about to crack:

He was only 27 this year!

Lu Chuan seemed not to know the shock of the two, and at this moment only nodded solemnly: "Don't worry, I will definitely let Tan Tan appear perfectly."

Let those old classmates forget her past embarrassment and awkwardness, and from then on, whenever they think of her, they can only witness her success.

Song Tan raised her hand first: "Let's say it first, I don't want high heels! No makeup."

Huo Xueying was just about to say that high heels could release aura! She saw Lu Chuan already looking over with a smile: "Hmm, don't worry—I know—let's be a little low-key."

He remembered Huo Xueying's exhortation and added: "It will be the kind of low-key that looks very successful and wealthy at first glance."

He often wrote this kind of thing and had a lot of experience.

Huo Xueying nodded with satisfaction: "Good!" ===== CHAPTER 1398 =====
