Chapter 324
C324 – There Was a Beauty Who Invited Su Ming
Su Ming cleared his throat with a slight cough.
“What’s your name?” Su Ming inquired.
“Chairman, my name is Mei Shu!”
Su Ming nearly burst into laughter.
The name Mei Shu had an unfortunate ring to it.
He meant no harm, but the name was amusing.
“Well…”
With a smile, Su Ming gave Mei Shu a reassuring pat on the shoulder.
Mei Shu bowed even deeper.
His heart raced.
His cheeks flushed with excitement!
He thought to himself, “Oh my god! The chairman patted my shoulder! What an incredible honor!”
Those standing behind him were green with envy.
He had caught the attention of Su Ming!
To them, Su Ming was the tycoon who had snapped up 100 companies.
His family background had to be remarkable.
To be acquainted with such an influential figure would be their good fortune.
If such a VIP deigned to pat their shoulders, they would treasure the clothes they were wearing for life.
Some even mused, “I could skip a bath!”
It was a badge of honor!
It was akin to an ancient emperor bestowing a commoner with a pat on the shoulder—a cause for immense excitement.
Ma Guangcai was at a loss for words.
Just who was Su Ming to be such an influential figure?
He had actually crossed paths with Su Ming!
Ma Guangcai was on the verge of tears.
With Su Ming’s lofty status, he could easily have sent someone to purchase fish. Why did he go himself?
Was it intentional?
But now, Ma Guangcai was trapped.
His car was hemmed in by the vehicles of other business owners.
Escape was impossible.
If only he were a fish, he could leap into the water and swim away.
Ma Guangcai didn’t know what to do and stood there, his face a picture of discomfort.
Su Ming, however, paid him no mind.
Truth be told, a small fish like Ma Guangcai had long been dismissed from Su Ming’s thoughts.
Ma Guangcai couldn’t even stir a ripple in Su Ming’s emotions.
Turning his attention to Mei Shu, Su Ming declared, “You’ll manage these 100 companies. You’re now the general manager of all of them. Whatever happens, you don’t need to report to me, just steer clear of illegal dealings!”
“I’ve got other matters to attend to, so let’s wrap this up,” Su Ming stated coolly.
“Yes!” responded the 100 bosses in chorus.
They quickly turned, got into their car, and sped away. Within a mere two minutes, they had all disappeared, leaving only a stunned Ma Guangcai standing in place. Ma Guangcai shivered, wanting to explain himself, but he found he was at a loss for words.
“Get a better batch,” Su Ming said, uninterested in any further discussion.
“Yes!” Ma Guangcai, terrified, took Su Ming’s words as if they were a reprieve. He scrambled into his vehicle and sped off in a cloud of dust.
In less than thirty minutes, he returned with 500 fish, each one plump and succulent, far superior to those Su Ming had previously seen in the market.
“Boss,” Ma Guangcai stammered.
Su Ming glanced at the scanner. The fish’s quality was not just excellent—it was outstanding!
“Dump the fish into the swimming pool,” Su Ming instructed.
Without hesitation, Ma Guangcai complied. As he drove into the yard, he noticed several acres of farmland sown with wheat and a large villa at the center, complete with a spacious swimming pool and a fish pond out front. Ma Guangcai’s hands shook in disbelief. He must have been out of his mind to have angered Su Ming. Setting aside the fact that Su Ming was the chairman of 100 companies, just owning such a vast tract of land in the city center made him untouchable.
After unloading the fish into the pool, Su Ming was ready to pay him, but Ma Guangcai refused the money and fled in his car. Su Ming, left with no other option, called Mei Shu to arrange payment.
Before leaving, Mei Shu had given Su Ming his business card. “Maybe I’ll contact him,” Su Ming mused, pocketing the card—a decision he didn’t expect to act upon so soon.
Su Ming then closed the gate behind him, picked up a fishing net, and began to methodically catch the fish, transferring them into the rice fields. He stocked three acres with 300 carp and two acres with 200 carp.
“You’ve successfully raised carp. Now you can harvest them along with the rice!”
Su Ming chuckled heartily upon hearing the notification in his mind. Patience truly was a virtue in farming.
If he had been lazy and neglected the fish, he wouldn’t have any to harvest.
The System appeared straightforward, yet it boasted numerous hidden features.
He still had more to uncover.
Carp swam beneath the rice seedlings as Su Ming stood on the embankment, fishing net in hand, looking quite content.
Just then, a gentle knock sounded at the door.
Who could it be? Su Ming wondered, momentarily taken aback.
He went to the door and swung it open.
It was Xiao Ke’er.
She was exceptionally well-dressed today.
Her black dress was impeccably tailored, complemented by high heels and subtle makeup.
Seeing Su Ming, Xiao Ke’er greeted him with a smile, “Mr. Su, I hope I’m not interrupting.”
“Not at all,” Su Ming replied with an easy smile, having just finished his chores with no further plans.
“Mr. Su, I’ll be returning to the capital in a few days. Thank you for your help; my grandfather has fully recovered. Do you have any free time coming up? I’d like to invite you to dinner,” Xiao Ke’er asked, her courage evident, her cheeks blushing slightly with the question.
The young elites of the capital would be astounded to hear Xiao Ke’er’s invitation.
Many sought her affection there, and they were all influential figures.
Yet Xiao Ke’er had always declined their advances with a cool detachment, never growing close to anyone, much less dining with them.
The idea of her initiating an invitation to dinner was even more unheard of.
But Su Ming was oblivious to all this.
Truthfully, even if he were aware, it wouldn’t concern him.
For him, everything paled in importance compared to his farming.
“There’s no need for thanks; after all, you’ve given me a building,” he said.
Checking the time, Su Ming added, “It’s just about lunchtime, and I’m starting to feel hungry. Give me a moment to change my clothes.”
