Chapter 237: Chapter 238: Zhang Rong Is Jealous

Li Yang grinned.

Finding a partner was actually his next step, but since he’d already found one, he could feel more at ease.

"Alright, but let’s go take a look at our Anglers’ Center," Li Yang said, unhurried. "There’s a small store there. You can check it out and see if it’s suitable."

"Okay!"

They arrived at the small store in the Anglers’ Center. It was a small two-story building, and the ground floor was about seventy to eighty square meters.

"Isn’t it a little too big?" Qi Nanyan was actually quite satisfied, but she thought the store seemed rather large for a village.

"I was worried it would be too small!" Li Yang said, shaking his head. "I’m not just planning to serve the village, but also the tourists who visit. I believe we’ll be getting a lot more tourists in the future."

Qi Nanyan didn’t share his optimism, but she didn’t feel it was her place to comment. Besides, the amount of stock he ordered was just a number to her.

"Alright, I can be your supplier. How about this: tomorrow, I’ll send people over to install shelving and plan the product layout. As for you... when can you start supplying us?" Qi Nanyan asked, her voice tinged with urgency.

’This was what she was most concerned about.’

’Nothing was more important than her own business.’

"We can start tomorrow," Li Yang said. "I’ll supply you with vegetables, as well as chickens and ducks. Of course, it might not be a large quantity to start, but it should be enough to help you out of your current bind." He added seriously, "You can have your people come pick up the goods early tomorrow morning. As for the price..."

"We can discuss the price. Why don’t you give me a quote?"

"Deal!"

After finalizing the details, Qi Nanyan left in high spirits.

Li Yang then went to find Zhou Liyun.

"Sister-in-law Liyun," Li Yang said with a grin. "We’ve got plenty of vegetables now, don’t we?"

"Yes, yes..." Zhou Liyun was all smiles. "We’re all set now."

"Alright then. Starting tomorrow, let’s set aside an extra portion. I’ve partnered with a supermarket, so we need to get our vegetables onto their shelves."

"Really? That’s wonderful! Don’t you worry, I’ll get it all sorted out for you."

Li Yang breathed a sigh of relief after leaving Zhou Liyun’s place.

’Things are finally on the right track. The next step... I should probably register a proper company.’

The thought left him feeling a bit surreal.

’I’m actually going to start a company...’

After thinking for a moment, he gave Zhang Rong a call.

"You brat..." Zhang Rong’s irritated voice came from the other end. "Did Tang Ru try to seduce you again?"

Li Yang was taken aback. "Aunt Rong, what are you talking about?"

"Me, talking nonsense?" Zhang Rong said angrily. "She came right to my door and told me you two slept together. You’re really not picky at all, are you?"

"What the fuck!" Li Yang swore. "Don’t listen to her bullshit."

"Then let me ask you this. She said you helped her treat someone, and then you two went to a hotel. Is that true?"

Li Yang was speechless. ’You worldly people are really something else.’

"Of course not!" Li Yang said indignantly. "She *did* try to seduce me, but I turned her down. What kind of person do you take me for? I’m a man of integrity!"

Zhang Rong finally relaxed a bit. She had also thought it was unlikely.

Even though Li Yang was always running his mouth with flirtatious nonsense, he was actually very principled when it came to his actions.

"You’d better watch yourself from now on," Zhang Rong warned. "If I find out something is going on between you and Tang Ru, I won’t go easy on you."

"It’s not like you’re the one sleeping with me!" Li Yang shot back irritably.

"You..." Zhang Rong was so furious she was grinding her teeth, but in the end, she just snorted.

"Aunt Rong, could you do me a favor?" Li Yang asked with a cheeky grin. "Could you help me register a company? You see, my whole vegetable business is pretty much set up, it’s practically a company already. I need to make it official so I can manage it better."

This was a serious matter, so Zhang Rong didn’t beat around the bush. "Why don’t you go yourself?"

"I don’t know how!" Li Yang gave another cheeky grin. "You know all about this stuff. Besides, I know I can count on you to handle it properly. Right?"

His words successfully placated her. "You little brat, you just love making me run your errands, don’t you? Fine, fine, I’ll do it for you. By the way, what’s the company name?"

"Bishui Company!" Li Yang said without a moment’s hesitation. "Register that name. As for the scope of business, start with vegetables and produce... and add anything else you can think of."

Zhang Rong was a little baffled. ’What is he planning?’

But she had a general idea of Li Yang’s business, so she just nodded. "Alright, I get it. Send over your identification documents, and I’ll take care of it."

"Great! Thanks, Aunt Rong! I’ll have to treat you to a night in bed sometime!"

"You little brat, you’ve got a death wish, don’t you?" Aunt Rong cursed, but unbeknownst to anyone, a wide smile had spread across her face.

Li Yang chuckled to himself and hung up.

’Everything’s going so smoothly!’

「The next day.」

Qi Nanyan’s employees arrived in the village. ℯ

Meanwhile, back at her own company, Qi Nanyan was meeting with people from Quan’an Company.

When she saw them enter, Qi Nanyan’s expression changed, a flicker of disgust crossing her face.
