Chapter 1107 A Little Tempted
Xu Feng replied, "I think I've already moved on. I took investors back to my workplace for a site visit, and Wenwen even helped me receive them! I'm in a stable state and haven't lost my composure."
"She might have genuinely liked Liu Yibang before, but now that he's married, Wenwen should be able to let go. The reason she went there this time was probably because she was unwilling to accept it!"
Grandpa Xu sighed, "What can I do if I'm unwilling? If she dares to do something shameful, I won't be lenient!"
Mr. Xu nodded, "The example of Li Anna is still there! One Li Anna brought down the entire Li family. And this wasn't done by someone else, but rather they brought it upon themselves!"
Xu Feng quickly explained, "Wenwen is very smart. Once she understands, she won't do anything foolish!"
"I hope so!" Old Master Xu nodded. "We can't afford to antagonize the Liu family. Putting aside the Fu family, Liu Yibang's experience alone is enough for you to learn a lot!"
Xu Feng wholeheartedly agreed, “Yes! Shiyang District, where Liu Yibang is located, has now created two nationally renowned brands! This year, their total sales reached 200 million yuan domestically and 50 million US dollars internationally! It has not only provided thousands of jobs for the local people, but also created a lot of economic value and driven the development of upstream and downstream industries!”
"The potatoes grown by local farmers are processed into vermicelli and hot and sour noodles, and sold all over the country! Even the hot and sour noodles alone can generate sales of 150 million yuan this year. As for Shiyang pearls, research has now found that they have excellent effects in cosmetics, and we have also accumulated enough farming experience, so we can promote them on a large scale next year!"
"This area, from top to bottom, affects over 100,000 farmers! If all goes well, Shiyang County can complete its poverty alleviation and prosperity task next year! With the economic improvement, the investment in education and medical care has also been increasing. Now, Shiyang District is the fastest-growing economic development area there."
Xu Feng's tone was full of envy as he spoke.
Grandpa Xu stroked his chin, then saw his grandson and granddaughter-in-law getting out of the car not far away, carrying a child.
"Is the Fu family's youngest granddaughter-in-law really that capable?" Old Master Xu asked thoughtfully.
Xu Feng thought for a moment, his tone becoming more envious, and then replied, "Grandpa, from what I've observed, although the Liu family has three sons and one daughter, and Liu Meilan is the youngest, I believe that Liu Meilan will be the future head of the Liu family."
"This..." Old Master Xu was stunned. "Impossible, right?"
Mr. Xu also looked puzzled, "With three sons in the military, politics, and business, how could it be the turn of a married-out daughter to take charge of the household?"
Xu Feng seemed thoughtful. "From what I've observed, whether it was Liu Yibang's wedding or the promotional event we attended together, it was Liu Meilan who grasped the overall direction and facilitated everything. Of course, the Liu family also contributed, but you can vaguely see that Liu Meilan played a leading role."
"Although Liu Meilan was not directly involved in the wedding arrangements, which were mostly handled by her parents, the local government promotion event was entirely organized by Liu Meilan, along with her second brother."
"Although it was only a few days, the fact that she was able to attract so many people from home and abroad to participate in such a short period of time is enough to prove Liu Meilan's influence! Most importantly, Liu Meilan did not have any desire for money in her eyes; on the contrary, she was very sincere."
Grandpa Xu sighed, "The Liu family handed over hundreds of tons of gold without even blinking! Would we have been willing to do that?"
Mr. Xu and Xu Feng both fell silent.
Xu Feng shook his head. "I can't do it! China's gold mining output over three years is only 500 tons! That's enough to make someone richer than a country!"
Mr. Xu nodded, "Yes! Although the Liu family collectively agreed to hand it over to the state, it was Liu Meilan who discovered it! She had no selfish motives and gave it all away; that's something no ordinary person could do!"
Grandpa Xu turned his gaze back, "Because of this matter, Old Fu and his wife even went to stand in and support their granddaughter-in-law! After they came back, they met with us and started praising Liu Meilan! This shows that their approval of Liu Meilan has exceeded our expectations."
Xu Feng wholeheartedly agreed, "You'll all see the details later! As long as we're on good terms with the Fu and Liu families!"
Mr. Xu thought for a moment, "Does the Liu family have any daughters, whether they are cousins or close relatives?"
Old Master Xu raised an eyebrow slightly. "You want to form a marriage alliance with the Liu family?"
Mr. Xu smiled wryly, "There aren't many people who can come from such a good family and be so down-to-earth! Liu Meilan has already married into the Fu family, so there's no use in us being envious! If we could find someone who is related to the Liu family and is just as reliable, a marriage alliance would be great!"
Xu Feng was a little embarrassed. "Grandpa, Dad, please don't play matchmaker!"
"Do you have a girlfriend?" Grandpa Xu asked directly. "If you do, we'll see if she's reliable! As long as she comes from a respectable family and is ambitious and down-to-earth, we're willing to take her!"
Xu Feng scratched his head. "I guess my time just hasn't come yet."
Grandpa Xu pointed at Fu Chen, who was holding the child, and said, "Look at Fu Chen. He's only two years older than you, and his children are already so big, and they're twins! If you were sensible, would we be the ones to play matchmaker for you?"
Xu Feng explained, "Liu Yibang's father was an only child and had no siblings!"
"What about Liu Yibang's mother?" Old Master Xu asked. "She shouldn't be an only child, right?"
Xu Feng scratched his head. "No! Liu Yibang has three uncles and two aunts! The people older than me are all married, and the others are still in high school! Oh right, there seems to be one who is a little younger than me, but he's already an adult!"
"Which one?" Grandpa Xu asked.
Xu Feng replied, "Liu Meilan's aunt's daughter is a pop singer!"
"Huh?" Mr. Xu was taken aback. "Then let's forget about it!"
The world is in chaos, especially the entertainment industry, which is in even greater disarray.
Although no one in the Xu family works in this industry, they have heard a lot about the shady things that happen in this business!
Xu Feng recalled that at Liu Yibang's wedding, she sang a beautiful pop song called "For You," which captivated everyone. "Actually, you've all heard her songs! They're excellent! You might think I'm not a good match for her, but she might not even be interested in me!"
Seeing his grandson's expression, Grandpa Xu seemed to have some reaction. "Who is it?"
Xu Feng was a little embarrassed, "Linghua! She's the one who sang 'Moonlight over the Lotus Pond,' which is your and Grandma's favorite song."
