This kind of life where you wake up every day to see your sweetheart is filled with warmth and sweetness.
After Jiang Tao changed into the clothes Xu Li placed by the bedside for him, he walked out of the bedroom, washed his hands, and sat down by the dining table to have breakfast.
During breakfast, the family’s small talk was mostly about the renovation at building 89.
Dad and Mom have spent their lives being frugal and thought a simple renovation was enough, spending too much money felt like a waste to them.
But Jiang Tao and Xu Li had a different idea.
They weren’t thinking about luxury, but at least a proper renovation was necessary.
The parents were just in their 60s; they had many more years to enjoy.
Of course, the place had to be nicely renovated so it’d be more comfortable to live in.
In the end, Dad and Mom couldn’t win over Jiang Tao and Xu Li, and agreed to their renovation plan.
After breakfast, Dad and Mom went out to the processing plant to prepare a new batch of Eight Treasure Pickles.
After repeatedly practicing over ti, they had mastered the secret recipe Jiang Tao taught them.
While their skills might not be quite as good as Jiang Tao’s, they were almost there.
Additionally, with the bonus from the Delicious Pickle Jar, Jiang Tao didn’t have to worry about the food processing plant.
As the general manager, he was pretty much hands-off now.
Although they had left an office for him over there, he seldom visited.
"Hey, aren’t you in a hurry to leave today?"
After carefully wiping down the stove and walls in the kitchen, Xu Li ca out and saw Jiang Tao sitting on the couch in the living room browsing his phone and asked curiously.
"Co over here, sweetheart, I want to tell you sothing."
Jiang Tao waved her over while putting his phone down on the coffee table.
The phone screen displayed a trending news topic he had been browsing on Weibo.
The news was about the recent information regarding China not renewing contracts for several hundred beef export companies from M Country.
In the comnts section of the news, dostic cattle farrs were ecstatic and moved to tears!
With import channels for beef cut off, locally raised beef, which had been struggling for years, finally saw a glimr of hope.
"What’s going on? So mysterious."
Xu Li laughed charmingly and walked over to Jiang Tao, sitting closely beside him.
"We’ve settled down here in Beijing, haven’t we?"
"Maybe it’s ti to invite your parents over to visit and show them where we live?"
Jiang Tao spoke with a smile, reaching out to wrap his arm around Xu Li’s slender waist.
"You an invite my parents to Beijing?"
Xu Li’s face lit up with excitent at Jiang Tao’s words, but she then added:
"Wouldn’t that be too troubleso and interfere with your work?"
"There might be a bit of an impact, but not much."
Jiang Tao laughed and said, "I’ll leave the car for you, and you can take them around during the day, sightseeing and having fun, and we can have dinners together in the evenings."
"You’re amazing, honey! I’ve wanted my parents to co visit Beijing for a while now!"
"But I was worried about bothering you, so I didn’t ntion it. You’re my wonderful husband~"
Xu Li excitedly gave Jiang Tao several pecks on the face, almost jumping for joy.
Her mother might not have been very fond of Jiang Tao as a son-in-law before.
But she had nothing but praise for her eldest daughter, Xu Li, much more than for her younger sister.
It was only natural for Xu Li to want to invite her parents to visit Beijing to show her filial piety.
With Jiang Tao’s approval and full support, Xu Li imdiately picked up her phone, found her mother’s number, and made the call.
"Mom~ My husband suggested you co to Beijing for a visit. Get Dad to take a few days off and co play."
"We’ve got everything planned perfectly for your enjoynt."
"Hehe, my husband said you could play and eat as much as you want."
"My husband..."
Xu Li was already highly favored in her mother’s eyes.
Of course, she didn’t want to miss this great opportunity to boost Jiang Tao’s image in front of her mom.
She kept saying "my husband" to up his approval rating.
Their mother and daughter chatted on the phone almost every day, with each call lasting at least an hour.
Seeing that the call wouldn’t end anyti soon, Jiang Tao gestured towards the door and picked up the car keys from the coffee table before heading out.
Ring ring ring—
As soon as Jiang Tao stepped out, his phone rang.
Upon checking the caller ID, he saw it was "Uncle".
"Hello, Uncle."
Jiang Tao answered casually and greeted his uncle.
"Xiao Tao, a buyer is interested in buying ten of our cattle today. They’ve negotiated a price of twenty-four yuan and eighty cents. Do you think we should sell?"
On the other end of the phone, there was an excited tone in Tian Xiaoguang’s voice.
The cattle farm’s purchasing price was just fifteen yuan each, selling for twenty-four point eight ant a gain of nearly ten yuan per pound!
For ten cattle, which were over 6,000 pounds, this was a profit of 60,000 yuan!
Even after deducting costs like feed and labor, the profit was substantial!
"Sell! Go ahead and sell! At twenty-five yuan, if soone wants to buy, we sell."
Jiang Tao agreed without hesitation.
He was planning to call his uncle to tell him they could start "shipping" the cattle.
It just so happened that his uncle called first.
"Alright! I’ll make the sale then!"
On the phone, Tian Xiaoguang sounded quite excited.
Honestly, this past month, he had been under a lot of stress.
His nephew had invested over 3 million in the Tian Family Manor’s cattle farm project, and if anything went wrong...
Now seeing the nephew’s gamble pay off with an excellent market turn, he felt truly happy for him.
The two chatted for a bit longer before ending the call.
