Chapter 2168: Buy Ginseng
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Sun Tian knew that Qiao Mei owned a lot of land elsewhere, but he was already too old to manage so much land.
“I can’t do it! It’s already very good that I can manage this place well! My family can’t take care of too much land,” Sun Tian said.
“There will come a time when you don’t have to do everything yourself. You can hire someone to do the work and you just need to supervise,” Qiao Mei said.
“Then that’s not a problem! I can manage it well!” Sun Tian said confidently.
The Sun family had been farming for generations. As long as it was something related to the fields, there was nothing that Sun Tian did not know! There was nothing that Sun Tian did not understand!
“How many greenhouses can you take care of?” Qiao Mei asked.
“500?” Sun Tian said tentatively.
There were already 100 greenhouses in front of her. A total of 500 greenhouses was really too few. Qiao Mei waved her hand and said, “1,500! Bring your son along to manage them!”
“Alright! I’ll try!” Sun Tian said.
Qiao Mei did not have any other staff capable enough to look after the greenhouses at the moment. She would let Xia Wen try to get 2,000 mu of land first. If she really managed to get 100,000 mu of land, it would actually be too much for her. She was joking with Xia Wen when she made the demand just now. However, she had to show that she had a big appetite so that those higher-ups would give her more things.
“I won’t dare. I haven’t done anything. I’m just here to tell you about what I’ve done over the past few years,” He Ning said.
He Ning wanted to continue catching up with Qiao Mei, but before he could speak further, he started to cough violently. He quickly covered his mouth with a handkerchief and walked over to the side. Huo Gao supported He Ning and patted his back gently.
If it was someone else in front of her, Qiao Mei would definitely feel sorry for the person. If it was someone she was familiar with, she would definitely share some medicinal wine generously so that the person could live well. However, this was none other than He Ning, the person who had harmed the Xia family many times and wanted to kill her children so many times.
“You’re here to ask me for ginseng,” Qiao Mei said confidently.
It was always so easy to talk to smart people. He Ning took a few deep breaths and said, “Name your price.”
“I remember I previously sold the ginseng to you at 400,000 to 500,000 dollars each. The price has gone up now,” Qiao Mei said.
“The cost is not an issue,” He Ning said.
Qiao Mei sized up He Ning. She did not know how much money he had now. Back then, he had given her about two million dollars in total. At that time, she did not have any money. The two million dollars became her start-up capital and also allowed her to buy properties. However, the one thing she did not lack now was money.
At that time, He Ning had given Qiao Mei all the money he had. From that moment on, he knew that she had a big appetite. After knowing her for so long, he knew everything she did, from earning money in the beginning to buying a house, to opening a factory and finally starting to buy land. If he did not work hard to make more money, he would not be able to satisfy her demands.
Over the past two years, he had taken advantage of the opening up of the economy and immediately gone to the south to build up his business. He made a lot of money and also gained a prominent status there.
“You don’t have to be so guarded against me. I haven’t done anything. You sell me ginseng and I’ll help your company grow bigger. It’s a win-win situation for both of us. Isn’t that good?” He Ning said.Yôur favorite stories at novelhall.com
