"Does this outfit look okay? I won’t embarrass you when we go out, right?"
Xu Li twirled in front of Jiang Tao, smiling brightly.
The intense gaze Jiang Tao gave her was the best complint.
"My wife looks beautiful in anything, perfect~"
Jiang Tao cheerfully gave Xu Li a thumbs up, sincerely praising her.
The saying "clothes make the man" is just as true for Xu Li.
Compared to before, when her entire outfit cost less than a thousand yuan.
Now, just her Canada Goose parka cost over fifteen thousand.
The seemingly simple leggings she wore are from the well-known brand Lululemon, priced over two thousand.
The ankle boots with tartan panels on her feet are also a new model from Burberry, priced over eight thousand.
In the past, although Xu Li was pretty, she lacked confidence.
And her clothing always gave a sense of being cheap.
Now, Xu Li is decked out in all designer brands.
She appears much more elegant and carries herself with more confidence and charm than before.
"Hehe~ As long as I don’t embarrass you, that’s good."
Xu Li chuckled sheepishly, taking a few steps forward to hold Jiang Tao’s arm. The two of them, chatting and laughing, headed out together, taking the elevator downstairs.
10:19 in the morning.
The rcedes GLS stopped outside the greenhouse Jiang Tao had rented.
After getting out of the car, Jiang Tao noticed, besides Du Jun’s van for picking up and dropping off workers and a Zhongtong delivery truck,
there was also a fuchsia Nissan Qashqai with a Beijing license plate.
He guessed this car belonged to Director An.
After Xu Li quickly jumped out of the passenger seat, she walked around the front of the car to stand beside Jiang Tao, linking her arm with his.
"Let’s go, I’ll take you to see our blueberry farm."
Jiang Tao said with a smile, leading Xu Li into the greenhouse.
"Good morning, President Jiang. Is this your wife? She’s really beautiful! Like she stepped out from a painting!"
"Good morning, President Jiang..."
"Good morning, President Jiang."
Inside the greenhouse, the workers packing up enthusiastically greeted Jiang Tao and Xu Li as they ca in.
"Good morning."
"Good morning, everyone."
Jiang Tao and Xu Li responded without any airs, greeting everyone back.
"President Jiang, Lili! What brings you here today?"
Du Jun, spotting Xu Li from afar, put down what he was doing and approached them quickly, happily greeting Jiang Tao and Xu Li.
Actually, Du Jun and Xu Li are relatives, not that far removed.
"Brother Jun, I’ve heard from my husband that you work here."
"There was nothing going on at ho today, so I ca over with him to take a look. We should have you over to our place soti, and you can get to know the family."
Seeing Du Jun, Xu Li smiled and greeted him.
"Sure, sure, definitely. We’ve been so fortunate to be under the care of my brother-in-law. That’s why we’re working in such a good environnt."
"Working here with my brother-in-law, there’s no wind or chill, and payday is always prompt. It’s a pleasure to deal with him."
As Du Jun chatted with Xu Li, he didn’t forget to praise Jiang Tao.
After all, Jiang Tao is the boss here and the one who gives him work.
"Brother Jun, you’re too kind. I wouldn’t say I take care of you, it’s just a normal employnt relationship."
"It’s thanks to you and this team of brothers and sisters that the work has been going smoothly."
"Once this project is done, I’ll treat everyone to a good al."
Du Jun laughed, "Alright! Then it’s settled. Once everyone hears this news, they’ll surely work even harder."
After a brief chat, Jiang Tao took Xu Li away, and the two of them arrived at the office door and knocked.
"Co in."
Upon hearing the voice inside, Jiang Tao and Xu Li entered one after the other.
"Third Brother."
Upon entering, Xu Li cheerfully greeted Jiang Bing.
Her bright eyes quickly landed on the elegant woman who had just stood up.
Obviously, this woman must be Director An, whom her husband ntioned.
"Second Brother, Sister-in-law, you’re here!"
When Jiang Bing saw her brother and sister-in-law, she rose from her seat and greeted them with joy on her face.
"Director An, I apologize for keeping you waiting. We’re a bit late."
Jiang Tao smiled apologetically and greeted An nglin.
"No problem, I just got here about ten minutes ago, besides, Miss Jiang Bing has already shown the four blueberry potted plants."
An nglin stood to greet Jiang Tao and Xu Li with a smile.
"Director An has seen the four potted blueberries with genetic mutations? Is your institute interested?"
Jiang Tao asked his question, looking eagerly at An nglin, waiting for her response.
"Those four blueberry potted plants, just as you said, indeed have undergone genetic mutations."
"Moreover, they have a very rare mutation in fruit color."
"Our Agricultural Research Institute is very interested in plants with such genetic variations."
"As for the price... How much does President Jiang intend to sell them for? Per plant."
An nglin looked at Jiang Tao, asking about the price she was most concerned about.
"200,000 each."
Jiang Tao didn’t waste any ti, directly ntioning the anticipated price Brother Tongzi had suggested.
"200,000... per plant!"
On hearing Jiang Tao’s quote, Xu Li and Jiang Bing were visibly startled!
Though they already knew Jiang Tao had found four blueberry potted plants with genetic mutations,
