Chapter 134: Chapter 134 Domineering Father-in-Law

Chen Yu was momentarily baffled. The construction of the factory had only just started today, yet Tong Ming had already found out about it.

But Tong Ya had been with him all day, and now she was dancing with Tuan Tuan, leaving no time to call Tong Ming.

However, on second thought, Tong Ming was able to muster up so many people to stay nearby when the online celebrity caused trouble at the shop.

It would have been relatively easy to send a few people to loiter around his shop and gather some intelligence.

Chen Yu sighed helplessly, "Dad, my factory has just begun the construction phase and hasn't started production yet, and here you are placing orders. Isn't this a form of covert investment?"

"Nonsense! What do you mean by covert investment? I've seen your semi-finished products warehouse before. If you're running a factory, of course, you'd produce semi-finished puff pastries and vegetable rolls. I have a few breakfast brands under me, so why wouldn't I buy these semi-finished products?"

Chen Yu paused for a moment, as this did indeed make sense.

With the Tong Group's vast portfolio, it was not surprising they owned a few breakfast brands.

"But, Dad, my factory hasn't even started operations, and you're already coming to buy, which really seems a bit..."

"Seems a bit what?" Tong Ming interrupted Chen Yu, "We're family now, aren't we? Your semi-finished products, should they be sold to someone else? Do you want their breakfast brands to outcompete the Tong Family's?"

There was nothing wrong with what he said, and Chen Yu found himself unable to retort for the moment.

"Alright, it's decided then!" Tong Ming declared, making a decision on the spot: "Take some time in the next few days to come to my office. List out what your factory plans to produce so we can sign a comprehensive cooperation agreement."

After speaking, Tong Ming hung up the phone.

Chen Yu raised an eyebrow. Although he still suspected Tong Ming of making a covert investment, supplying semi-finished products to breakfast brand stores was indeed his sales target, wasn't it?

"Honey? Who were you talking to?"

Tong Ya led Tuan Tuan into the basement. seaʀᴄh thё Novelƒire(.)ne*t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Chen Yu shook his phone, "It was your dad. He wants to sign a comprehensive cooperation agreement with me, saying he'll supply the first batch of semi-finished products produced by the factory to him."

"That's great news!" Tong Ya took a seat across from Chen Yu, casually pouring a glass of red wine.

Chen Yu was taken aback, this was the first time Tong Ya seemed so supportive.

Before this, Tong Ya and Tong Ming were on bad terms. Even if their misunderstandings had been resolved, there were still some barriers between them.

"But don't you think this is a bit like covert investment?"

Tong Ya shot back, somewhat exasperated, "Honey, he doesn't own a share in your factory, and besides, it's just business. Plus, the Tong Group is indeed a good sales lead. They own a multitude of breakfast and supermarket brands."

Chen Yu shook his head; he was really overthinking this time.

"Okay, we'll go sign the contract tomorrow."

The next morning at eight, Tong Ya got dressed in a sharp professional suit that added an authoritative aura to her.

Chen Yu remained casual as usual; he wasn't one to fuss over what to wear.

After all, his physique was now proportioned like Gold, negating the need for clothes to enhance his appearance.

Tong Ming was in the conference room at the top of the building, having a meeting with the group's senior executives.

The meeting had just started when Tong Ya, leading Chen Yu, barged in.

Upon their entry, all the executives stood up immediately, viewing Tong Ya with reverent gazes and collectively addressing her as Director Tong.

Chen Yu's pupils dilated slightly, astonished by the status Tong Ya held in the eyes of these senior executives.

In fact, Tong Ya had previously served as the vice president of the Tong Group, as well as the chief planner for the group's macro business strategy.

In some respects, Tong Ya's competence even surpassed that of Tong Ming.

Therefore, the entire Tong Group regarded Tong Ya as the designated heir, whether or not she ran away from home.

Tong Ya did not respond to these people but simply pulled out a chair from the side.

"Husband, you sit!"

Before Chen Yu could react, Tong Ya had already pressed him into the chair and then stood by his side like a secretary.

Everyone present was stunned, they had not expected the Miss Tong, whom they had always respected, to be willing to take a subordinate position to a man.

"Son-in-law, I didn't expect you to come so early!"

Tong Ming excitedly stood up with his cane, ready to come over and shake hands with Chen Yu, but Tong Ya raised her hand to stop him.

"Mr. Tong, my husband and I are here to talk business today, please refrain from familial gestures."

"Oh!"

Tong Ming laughed heartily, "That's more like my daughter."

The senior executives, who had previously looked down on Chen Yu, now viewed him with a bit more respect.

They had all tried Chen Yu's cooking, and some of them had personally been involved in editing the footage of the two competitions he had participated in.

Someone like Chen Yu, who could do several things to perfection and had also defeated world-class experts in his field,

was an absolute legend!

Such a person was not only worthy of Tong Ya but also qualified to be Tong Ming's son-in-law.

Tong Ming also straightened his tie and took his seat very formally.

"Alright, then let's talk business! The rough terms of the collaboration and the contract were prepared by someone I found last night. Take a look, and if there are no problems, we can sign the contract right away."

The secretary hurriedly brought the documents in Tong Ming's hand to Chen Yu.

But Tong Ya took the documents first, "Mr. Tong, you haven't added any strange clauses in this document, have you? My husband's factory is a sole proprietorship, so don't have any inappropriate thoughts."

Everyone present could not help but cough.

There never was a father so blatantly trying to trick his own daughter!

Tong Ming smiled helplessly, "It's fine, take your time, I'm not in a hurry."

Tong Ya only handed the contract to Chen Yu after confirming there were no problems with it.

The contract was designed quite reasonably; even Chen Yu could not find any faults.

After Chen Yu signed his name on the contract, he clipped the sorted list of items in with the contract and handed it back.

Tong Ming glanced over it, "I want all these items, and we can finalize the ratios later. Let's start with a prepaid fund of one hundred million!"

Chen Yu's eyes went wide, that number would directly monopolize all the initial products from his factory.

Before he could respond, Tong Ya had already taken one copy of the contract.

"Husband, we can leave now!"

Chen Yu was still a bit dazed but simply nodded his head and left the office with Tong Ya.

In just a few minutes, Chen Yu's receiving account was credited with a company transfer from the Tong Group, a full one hundred million.

Having never seen so much money in his life, Chen Yu was momentarily unable to count all the zeros displayed on the screen.
