Chapter 381: Gong Tianhao teases Xiao Lingyu

Translator: Lonelytree

Under Special Assistant Li’s vigorous promotion and hard work, 500 catties of peanut oil were sold out in one morning. They were sold at 1000 RMB per catty.

‘The customers felt heartache when paying, but they couldn’t stay away from the fragrance of the peanut oil either.

These people had high salaries. When they went home and used the peanut oil to cook, the smell permeated their homes. Then, they regretted not buying more. You get what you pay for. There was a reason why the peanut oil was expensive.

1000 RMB per catty was expensive, but they were fragrant and delicious. They were elite workers who earned more than 100,000 RMB per month, so they could afford the peanut oil.

‘The next day when they went back to Li Yuanhang to buy more, the peanut oil was all gone.

Li Yuanhang had sold all the peanut oil, and he managed to sell them at a price higher than 1000 RMB per catty. From the start, Li Yuanhang’s targets were the bosses of a few big companies. They were all rich and powerful.

In the beginning, they bought some peanut oil to give Li Yuanhang face. They didn’t even ask for a sample. The peanut oil was expensive, but the seller was the vice president of Imperial Group. How could they not give him face?

Another important reason was these big bosses wanted some insider info. Many people guessed that this was Imperial Group’s next business expansion. The big bosses bought the peanut oil, hoping to earn future corporate cooperation opportunities.

However, when they bought peanut oil home for their chefs to cook, they were immediately addicted. Instantly, they called Li Yuanhang to buy more peanut oil. These big bosses were all clever people.

They immediately discovered the value of the peanut oil. It could be used as gifts for their business partners. Soon, Li Yuanhang’s peanut oil became a favorite among the upper echelon of the capital. Many powerful people competed to buy peanut oil from Li Yuanhang.

‘There was more demand than supply.

Li Yuanhang raised the price on the spot. Actually, he went one step further and opened the floor for bidding. The price rose higher and higher.

The bid for a catty of peanut oil went from 1,000 to 10,000. And it was still rising.

In the end, it reached the peak of 20,000 RMB per catty. The last five catties were sold at this ludicrous price.

During the transaction, the winner asked Li Yuanhang, “Director Li, will you still sell this kind of peanut oil in the future?”

The cunning Li Yuanhang raised his eyebrows, spread out his hands, and said with a smile, “Well, I don’t know either. I’m just selling this peanut oil on behalf of my boss.” After saying this, he paused for a moment and then said with a slightly mysterious smile, “Who knows, there might be more in the

future.”

The businessman, “…” Fuck, if that’s the case, why am I spending so much money to buy it now? The rarer the item, the more expensive it is. If there is more stock in the future, the price will drop.

However, the bid was concluded, and he had paid. He couldn’t deny the bid. He had his people carry away the five catties of peanut oil. He looked like he had been kicked in the arse.

Li Yuanhang was in a very good mood as he calculated the profit from selling five hundred catties of peanut oil.

In the end…

Gong Tianhao handed Xiao Lingyu a bank card.

Xiao Lingyu raised her eyebrows and asked curiously, “What is the meaning of this?”

They had been together for some time, and Xiao Lingyu got to know Gong Tianhao’s character better. She knew he wouldn’t give her a card for no reason.

Gong Tianhao smiled and said, “Yu ‘Er, don’t misunderstand. This is the money from selling the peanut oil. They sold for 660,000 RMB.”

“Ah? 660,000?” Xiao Lingyu thought that she had heard wrongly. She asked in shock, “660,000 RMB for 500 catties of peanut oil?”

Based on her estimation, the selling price for the peanut oil at the capital would be capped at 200 RMB per catty. She gave Gong Tianhao 500 catties, so that would be 100,000 RMB. But Gong Tianhao gave her a card that had 660,000 RMB?

Was this a joke?

Xiao Lingyu stared at Gong Tianhao with a very suspicious gaze. She asked very suspiciously, “Gong Tianhao, did you buy all 500 catties of the peanut oil yourself?” That was the only possibility she could think of. If that was the truth, then his action was very demoralizing. “Gong Tianhao, what is the

meaning of this? Do you think I need your money?” Xiao Lingyu questioned sternly. Her heart suddenly felt stifled, and she felt very sad. She could not help but question Gong Tianhao with a sharp tone.

Honestly, this was not her original intention. But when she thought about how Gong Tianhao thought he could buy her like some kind of object, she was furious. This was the second time her mood was so affected after she was reborn.

The first time was when she saw her parents being beaten.

Gong Tianhao had been so attentive and helpful to her. She thought that he treated her differently from those gold-diggers. However, in the end, she realized she was wrong.

Xiao Lingyu felt a little depressed, a little bitter, and a little melancholic. These emotions gathered to shake her mind. She could not control herself.

Her eyes were filled with sadness and disappointment as she looked at Gong Tianhao.

Unexpectedly, Gong Tianhao’s face revealed a doting smile.

He gently stroked Xiao Lingyu’s hair and tidied her bangs. He asked in amusement, “Why? Are you sad and disappointed that I suddenly gave you 660,000 RMB?”

Seeing Xiao Lingyu’s sudden revelation of her emotions, Gong Tianhao secretly rejoiced. This meant that he had slowly entered her heart. It was why she reacted so strongly when she thought he was blowing her off with the money.

In the past, no matter what he did, Xiao Lingyu was indifferent. Now, he could finally incite some reaction from her. This was a good development.

‘When Xiao Lingyu heard Gong Tianhao’s words, she stared at Gong Tianhao in disbelief. Her eyes were filled with panic and uneasiness. Then, she glared at Gong Tianhao with anger. Then, she straightened her neck and said, “Young Master Gong, you’ve misunderstood. I’m more than happy that you’re

giving me 660,000 RMB. After all, 660,000 RMB is a lot for a country bumpkin like me. Why wouldn’t I be happy?”

‘She is still so stubborn. But I like it.

Gong Tianhao reached out and pinched her ruddy cheeks. He immediately smiled and said, “Yu ‘Er, didn’t you notice that your lips are pouting? Why would they pout if you’re that happy?”

‘When Xiao Lingyu heard that, she was embarrassed and angry. She widened her eyes and shouted loudly, “Gong Tianhao!”

‘She is using my full name! She must be mad! Gong Tianhao wanted to tease Xiao Lingyu a bit more, but he knew that she couldn’t be too emotional since she was pregnant. Gong Tianhao cleared his throat and said with a smile, “Okay, I won’t tease you anymore.”

Xiao Lingyu glared at him. Before she could say anything, Gong Tianhao continued, “This money is really from the sale of the peanut oil. Your oil smells so amazing, It’ll definitely be popular in Beijing.

“You have to thank Yuanhang too. Once he got the oil, he saw the value in them. He placed the starting price at 1000 RMB per catty. Then, with word of mouth and the quality of your peanut oil, more people came to buy the oil. The demand was very high, so the price rose too. In the end, there was even a

bidding war.”

Gong Tianhao did not tell the whole truth. He was the one who ordered Li Yuanhang to put the starting price of the peanut oil at 1000 RMB per catty.

Xiao Lingyu was stunned. “Ah?”

She looked at Gong Tianhao in disbelief.

1,000 yuan per catty of peanut oil was a price that she had never thought of.

The peanut oil produced by the farmers was priced at 10 RMB per catty in the local market. In the supermarket, the most expensive peanut oil was 120 RMB per 5 liters.

But the price was different in the big cities. At least Xiao Lingyu knew that in City Z, the 5 liters of peanut oil were sold for 160 RMB.

Of course, her peanut oil was different. Locally, she sold them for 50 RMB per catty. It was already quite expensive. But she still had quite a number of customers. Xiao Lingyu thought about selling her peanut oil at City Z through her connection with Yan Ruyu. She thought of stocking them at the National

Union Supermarket.

However, before that could happen, her peanut oil had been flown to Beijing.

She didn’t know what to say. She was very impressed by Li Yuanhang. She could not imagine selling the peanut oil at 1000 RMB per catty, but Li Yuanhang did exactly that.

Since Gong Tianhao pushed all the credit to Li Yuanhang, Xiao Lingyu naturally became incredibly impressed by Li Yuanhang. She thought about getting closer to Li Yuanhang so that she could learn more business skills from him.

Gong Tianhao would come to regret his little omission. But that was a story for the future.

He continued, “The oil should be sold for 1000 RMB per catty, so the profit should be 500,000 RMB. However, the price became so high near the end that the overall profit was 660,000 RMB.”

Hearing Gong Tianhao’s explanation, Xiao Lingyu somehow heaved a sigh of relief.

Xiao Lingyu nodded and replied, “I see.”

Seeing the obvious change in Xiao Lingyu’s expression, Gong Tianhao’s interest was piqued. He began to tease Xiao Lingyu again and said, “What else do you think it was? Do you think I was trying to use the money to get rid of you? How is that possible? I’ve already told you you’re the woman I like. My

feelings for you are also real. Naturally, I won’t use the money to taint my feelings for you.”

Xiao Lingyu, “…” Is that an explanation or a confession?

Now that she had regained her senses, she couldn’t handle this mushy Gong Tianhao. She rolled her eyes and said, “Let’s go. It’s time for dinner.”

They were taking a walk outside.

Gong Tianhao smiled and replied with a face full of affection, “Okay!”

Then, he helped Xiao Lingyu to walk toward their home.

The afterglow of the setting sun elongated their figures. From behind, their shadows overlapped.

“What? Yu ‘Er, say it again. How much is the profit?”

After dinner, the Xiao family gathered and chatted.

Xiao Lingyu naturally told her family about the peanut oil sale.

However, when they heard that 500 catties of peanut oil had sold for over 600,000 RMB, they were all very shocked.

“660,000 RMB!” Xiao Lingyu was already as calm as usual.

“660,000 RMB! Heavens, how is that possible?” Xiao Lingyun exclaimed.

“That’s right, Tianhao. You were the one who sold the oil. How did you manage to do this?” Mother Xiao also asked curiously.

At this moment, Grandfather Gong said, “Hmph. How else would he do it? He must have forced people to buy them at a high price!”

Gong Tianhao, “…” Who made grandfather unhappy tonight?

He had given Li Yuanhang a challenge, so naturally, Li Yuanhang had to use some tricks to complete the sales. However, the quality of the product was good too. If they were just ordinary peanut oil, Li Yuanhang wouldn’t be able to do anything with them.

Hearing Old Master Gong’s words, everyone looked at Gong Tianhao in unison.

“Ahem,” Gong Tianhao explained, “Grandpa, I didn’t force anyone to buy anything. Those people bought the peanut oil willingly.”

Grandfather Gong snorted coldly, “Willingly? I heard that those big bosses came personally to buy the peanut oil from Li Yuanhang. Why didn’t they send over their servants or bodyguards? You must have pressured them, haven’t you?”

Everyone from the Xiao Family, “…”

Grandfather Gong’s words made a lot of sense. Even though the Xiao Family didn’t ask, they knew that the Gong Family came from a noble background. However, they didn’t put on airs. Since they were willing to befriend normal farmers like the Xiao Family, the Xiao Family reciprocated.

With regards to their identity, the Xiao Family didn’t need to know since they didn’t want to take advantage of them anyway.

However, now that they heard Old Master Gong say that Gong Tianhao used his identity to get those big bosses to buy peanut oil, they were curious about their identity for the first time. Of course, they weren’t that rude to ask directly.

Gong Tianhao was a little speechless at his grandfather’s accusations.

Gong Tianhao said, “Grandfather, you’re making it sound like your grandson is some kind of a robber. Let me make it clear to you that I am a law-abiding citizen.”

Old Master Gong,

Everyone in the Xiao family, “…”

‘What is this pair of grandfather and grandson doing?

Gong Tianhao continued, “Li Yuanhang did use some small tricks to sell this peanut oil.”

‘When the Xiao Family heard this, a big question mark appeared on their foreheads.

“He had the big bosses try the oil first before selling them. Once the big bosses tested the oil, they knew the price was worth it.” Gong Tianhao said matter-of-factly, “Of course, this works because our peanut oil is indeed good. They are worth the asking price.”

Gong Tianhao and the Xiao family were not in the same realm. The Xiao Family could never understand someone using 1000 RMB to buy one catty of peanut oil.

However, for people in Gong Tianhao’s circle, 1000 RMB was not much. Usually, they would spend more than 1000 RMB on a dish.

Now, they were using 1000 RMB to build a relationship and to buy a good product. On top of that, it was Li Yuanhang, Gong Tianhao’s right-hand man, who was selling the peanut oil. The clever ones knew what to do.

Moreover, after tasting the vegetables made from this peanut oil, the other dishes tasted like wax.

‘The Xiao Family thought Gong Tianhao made sense. But they still couldn’t understand how 500 catties of peanut oil could nab 660,000 RMB.

At this moment, Xiao Lingyun suddenly asked seriously,

“Brother-in…” She was going to call Gong Tianhao brother-in-law when she met Xiao Lingyu’s sharp gaze.. She quivered and changed her words, “Brother Hao, which city did you sell the peanut oil in?”
