Kapitel 191

"Think about it yourselves, if Xiaoman really goes to the city with his biological mother, what will happen to these cooperatives in our town?"

"Let me tell you, these cooperatives, including my own wild mushroom cultivation cooperative, were all founded by Xiaoman. The cooperatives are now so successful because of Xiaoman's abilities."

“If he really goes to the city, then no one will be in charge of our town's cooperative. Think about it yourselves, without the cooperative, can you still earn money peacefully at your doorstep?”

These words turned the faces of the gossipy middle-aged women pale.

Not only them, but even a few passersby who had secretly gathered around were startled.

They never expected that just watching a melon would lead to something happening to them!

Lang Ying is right. In the whole of Langshan Town, which family hasn't made money with Xiao Man? Everyone's livelihood is thanks to Brother Xiao Man!

If Xiaoman really goes back to the city with his biological mother, who will take care of them in the future?

It's not that they don't trust the town government, it's just that starting a business really requires private business owners to succeed.

Civil servants receive a fixed salary from the government; no matter how much they work, they all get the same amount of money every month.

Besides, even if some town officials are willing to lead the people to start businesses and get rich, those officials can't stay in the town forever. I've heard that many officials are transferred every five years. What if they get halfway through their work and then get transferred to another place? Wouldn't that leave the people behind?

But Jiang Xiaoman and the others are different. Xiaoman and Jiang Yu are both locals from Langshan. They can make money at their doorstep. Who would want to leave their hometown?

As long as Xiaoman doesn't leave, these cooperatives in their town won't go bankrupt, and they can continue to make big money with the cooperatives... Once they understood the logic behind this, the villagers wished they could pool their money to make a pair of chains and lock Jiang Xiaoman up in their Langshan!

What biological mother?

Since you abandoned your child in Langshan Town back then, Jiang Xiaoman is a Langshan native!

Trying to steal our people? Pshaw!!!

The villagers looked at each other and secretly decided that if they ever saw Jiang Xiaoman's biological mother coming to see him again, they would definitely stop her from entering the village!

This woman is even more ruthless than the Japanese devils!

Stealing Xiaoman is like stealing their God of Wealth, isn't it?

When it came to their own money, the villagers of Langshan immediately became vigilant. The elderly kept an eye on the vehicles passing by on the road, and if they saw a vehicle with a license plate from S province, they would immediately rush over to see if it was Jiang Xiaoman's heartless biological mother. If it was, they would sweep it away with a broom!

The younger generation wasn't idle either. They saw someone talking about Jiang Xiaoman's background online, implying that he made money and didn't even acknowledge his own mother. Before, they would just watch the show, but now it's different. Everyone is afraid that Xiaoman really went to live in the city with his biological mother. When they saw someone bringing this up, they immediately rushed up and started arguing with them.

In fact, everyone was inspired by Lang Ying. The thought that Xiao Man's fate was related to the success or failure of the entire Langshan Town's people to get rid of poverty and become rich made young people argue with each other online with confidence!

Yan Susu lost only a son she never wanted in the first place.

What Langshan lost was a leader who could have led all the people in their town out of poverty and into prosperity!

Are you trying to sabotage Langshan's poverty alleviation and prosperity efforts by insisting that Jiang Xiaoman reunite with his biological mother and let him live with her in the city?

Do we have to see the people of Langshan unable to afford food and the children unable to go to school to be happy?

If you're so capable, answer my question directly!

The haters were rendered speechless by the rebuttal.

Even some self-proclaimed moralists have shut up.

Who dares to admit that they want to hinder the country's great cause of rural revitalization?

Gossip aside, the great cause of rural revitalization is sacred and inviolable, okay? Even bystanders have their bottom lines, cough~

In S Province, upon hearing Yan Susu say that Jiang Xiaoman had accepted the million-dollar check she gave him but was unwilling to return to the Jin family to live with her, Jin Yonghua gave her a deep look and suddenly smiled.

"If they don't want to come, they don't have to. After all, they raised you, so it's normal that they're not close to you. Don't take it to heart."

He told Yan Susu not to take it to heart, but this incident still left a thorn in Jin Yonghua's heart.

He was already halfway to his grave, like an aging emperor, constantly worried that he wouldn't be able to die peacefully in his old age. The reason he chose Yan Susu was because she was simple-minded and easy to control, and her family had no background, so he didn't have to worry about his wife seizing power from his sons after his death to promote her family.

But now it seems that this woman is willing to abandon her own son for wealth and status, let alone this old geezer.

Thinking of the information he had asked someone to investigate about the child, Jin Yonghua waved his hand with a heavy heart, telling Yan Susu not to bother him, as he wanted some peace and quiet.

He had so many women and fathered so many sons, but in the end, not one of them was reliable!

So what if you have hundreds of millions in assets?

They don't even live as well as Jiang Youliang, that old rural man.

Who would have thought that the child Yan Xiaofang abandoned in the mountains would become so successful?

He started from scratch and built three agricultural cooperatives. I heard that he can sell millions of yuan worth of goods in a single live broadcast! He's also about to cooperate with an agricultural university to set up a wild mushroom cultivation base. Even the TV station has interviewed him several times.

Not only is he capable, but he is also a filial and conscientious child.

Knowing how hard it was for his adoptive father to raise him, the first thing he did after earning money was to build a house for his father.

Just because I attended a village primary school for a few years when I was young, and had already endured enough hardship during my four years of university, I still had to find ways to support the school...

Such a good child, why isn't he Jin Yonghua's?

If Yan Susu could give him a filial child like Jiang Xiaoman, what would he have to worry about for the rest of his life? He would definitely cherish and protect this mother and son.

Could it really be a problem with the Jin family's education?

Speaking of education... Chengjie will be a senior next year. Yan Susu has already mentioned it to him several times. In short, she thinks that people from families like theirs don't need to pursue postgraduate studies or doctoral degrees. She suggests that Chengjie should just go to the company for an internship in his senior year and get some experience in the factory as soon as possible.

They call it training, but really it's just waiting for him to take over.

This was also Jin Yonghua's original plan.

He was like a gaming novice with a huge addiction to games. He had several sons and daughters with his ex-wife. He would ruin one character, then have another, ruin that one, and have another... until Yan Susu gave birth to Jin Chengjie. Although this son was still far from being his ideal successor, it was too late to start a new character because he was too old to have any more children.

Thinking of this, Jin Yonghua coughed in anger.

If Cheng Jie could be like Jiang Xiaoman, devoted and filial to his father, he wouldn't have to worry about his wife and son pulling out his oxygen tube when he becomes immobile...

etc!

Perhaps it's not just an educational issue, but also a case of being influenced by one's surroundings?

Mr. Jin felt confident that he was in the right place at all. He had built such a large business as Jin Yan from scratch. If his son was like him, how could the family business not prosper?

Perhaps the problem lies with the wives he married?

Look at Cheng Jie, he grew up by Yan Susu's side since he was a child, look what she has taught him.

Then look at Jiang Xiaoman. Although she grew up in the mountains, I heard that Langshan is a famous old revolutionary base area. The people there must have a high level of awareness. With such influence, how could this child not learn well?

Anyway, he can hold on for another ten years or so without any problem. Cheng Jie is only a junior in college. Why don't we let Cheng Jie go to Langshan and invest in a project?

We don’t expect him to earn a lot of money for the family; the most important thing is for him to learn from his brother!

If Cheng Jie could learn even half of Jiang Xiaoman's understanding and filial piety, he could die in peace.

...

"What? Send Chengjie to Langshan? What will happen to the company?"

After hearing her husband's decision, Yan Susu was devastated.

Her husband is practically on his deathbed, and now is the crucial moment for the next generation of the Jin family to fight for the family fortune. At this time, this old woman actually wants to send her only son to Langshan.

Does he still mind that he had a child with another man before marriage?

Was it because he was upset that I didn't bring Jiang Xiaoman back?

“Old Jin, Xiaoman is a very stubborn child. I went to beg him myself, but he still wouldn’t forgive me. If I send Chengjie, won’t he be even angrier?” Yan Susu explained reluctantly.

“It has nothing to do with Xiaoman. I’ve heard that the local embroidery in Langshan is quite good. In recent years, the traditional Chinese style has become popular in the clothing industry. I think these folk crafts can be appropriately incorporated into our high-end products. It just so happens that Xiaoman and the others are in Langshan. Let Chengjie go and take a look. It can also be considered as preparation for him to join the company in the future.” Of course, Jin Yonghua would not tell Yan Susu what he really wanted.

However, this reason delighted Yan Susu.

It seems the old man still values her son the most.

Cheng Jie hasn't even joined the company yet, but she's already letting him get in touch with the company's high-end product line. When he brings his work into the company, even the company's veterans will have to look at her son with more respect.

However, she was always composed. Knowing that Jin Yonghua didn't like overly intelligent women, she dared not show any joy in front of President Jin. After thinking for a moment, she frowned, like a mother worried about her child, and sighed softly—

"I know Xiaoman still hates me, I hope he won't take it out on Chengjie..."

"Since you know he doesn't like you, I think you should stop bothering him at Langshan in the future." Jin Yonghua rolled his eyes in annoyance.

He used to quite like Yan Susu's style, but now he finds it increasingly repulsive.

Chapter 235

When Jin Chengjie heard that the old man wanted him to go to Langshan to work on a new project, he felt like he had been struck by lightning and was completely devastated.

Is his dad really getting senile?

Jin Chengjie has been led astray by Yan Susu; now, only two things occupy his mind:

First, help his mother gain favor and keep all the sons and daughters his father had with other women out of the house.

Secondly, he's waiting for his father to kick the bucket, and then he'll quickly take over.

The old man is still alive and well, and his half-siblings are all eyeing his inheritance. If he goes to Langshan now and the old man suddenly dies, even Sun Wukong wouldn't be able to fly back in time.

But could he say to the old man's face, "Because I think you're about to pass away, I don't even dare to go too far on business trips"?

Then he'll probably die before the old man does.

Fortunately, his mother was still with the old man. Although he was a little reluctant to part with the young star he had just hooked up with, well, he really wanted to see his half-brother.

I heard this guy grew up in the mountains and was so poor when he was a kid that he couldn't even afford rice? Tsk~ That's why they say being born into the right family is a skill.

Everyone was born from Yan Susu's womb. He was just born a few years later and became the young master of the Jin family. Jiang Xiaoman was pitiful because she was born a few years earlier and could only be a poor farmer...

Jiang Xiaoman was unaware that his half-brother was coming to see him make a fool of himself. After the autumn harvest, the golden chrysanthemums covering the mountains and fields officially entered the harvest season.

Actually, the golden chrysanthemums at the foot of the mountain have already started to be harvested. However, the mountain is at a high altitude, and Jiang Xiaoman and the others used idle wasteland in the forest and along the mountain road to grow them, which are almost the same as wild ones. Therefore, the golden chrysanthemums bloom a month later than ornamental chrysanthemums.

Because Jiang Xiaoman found cheap chrysanthemum seedlings for the cooperative, almost every household in Langshan Village planted golden chrysanthemums this year. Some planted a few thousand seedlings, while others planted more than ten thousand. Anyway, the seedlings only cost a few cents each. This year, the villagers have all made money, so they can afford the cost of a thousand or so yuan.

Moreover, with cooperative agreements to purchase the flowers, as long as they follow the cooperative's purchase requirements and pick the golden chrysanthemums grown on their own mountains, they don't need to dry them themselves; they can send the fresh flowers directly to the processing plant. The best quality flowers can sell for ten yuan per kilogram, while the lower quality ones can still fetch five to eight yuan per kilogram.

Picking flowers is a job that doesn't discriminate against anyone; anyone who can move can do it. Even children can help pick flowers. In some families, the whole family works together, and they can earn several hundred yuan a day just from selling fresh flowers.

Moreover, unlike wild mushrooms, which can be harvested and then have to wait several days for new mushrooms to grow after rain, this thing is different.

The yield of golden chrysanthemum can reach 2,000 catties per mu, and the flower buds bloom in batches, so they can be harvested every day.

It's currently the peak blooming season for flowers, and everyone in the village is exhausted.
