Hearing the old man's eager inquiry, Hu Xiaobei knew that he genuinely liked the tea.

He smiled and was about to say something when Sun Fuan's father, Sun Haiyang, spoke first.

"Hey, hey, hey, Xue, everything has a sequence! This tea was given to me by Xiaobei, so don't covet it because even if you do, I won't give it to you."

Upon hearing Sun Haiyang's words, Xue Zhengming responded directly, "Given to you? How big is your face?"

"Ha ha, Xue, you've known me for a long time! My face is just that big!"

"Hmph, don't talk nonsense with me. The principle of sharing when we meet, you understand. If you want to hog it, I could step outside and shout. You should be aware of the consequences."

Hearing Xue Zhengming's threat, Sun Haiyang's expression slightly changed.

Sun Haiyang knew that many elderly people of similar age lived here, all of whom liked tea leaves. So, if Xue Zhengming really did go out and shout, it would definitely draw many people. By then, if everyone shared the little tea available, he'd probably only be able to get one box of tea leaves himself.

Seeing Sun Haiyang's complexion change, Xue Zhengming chuckled, knowing he was using a somewhat underhanded trick, but he still had to, as he really couldn't bear to part with the tea leaves.

...

Sitting aside, Hu Xiaobei watched the two of them squabbling over the tea leaves like children, and with a bitter smile, he spoke, "Gentlemen, there really is no need for such a struggle. I have plenty of such tea leaves, as much as you want."

"What?"

Both men, stunned, looked at Hu Xiaobei.

Previously, both Sun Haiyang and Xue Zhengming had assumed that the tea was extremely precious, but now they realized it apparently wasn't, at least not to Hu Xiaobei.

Seeing them gaze eagerly at him, Hu Xiaobei continued, "Really, there's plenty."

With that explanation, Hu Xiaobei took out his phone.

Earlier, he had taken some photos of the tea trees.

After the two men carefully looked at the photos Hu Xiaobei had taken, they saw the long row of tea trees.

"So many!"

Shocked, they lifted their heads in unison and asked, "Xiaobei, are... are all these tea trees yours?"

"Yes! They all are! So you really don't need to fight over this. If you really like them, I can even gift you a tea tree!"

"Great! Great! Great! Xiaobei, make sure you keep plenty for us! We have no other hobbies but just love tea leaves!"

"Sure, as long as you're willing, it's absolutely not a problem."

Sitting aside, Shen Youwei watched them become fast friends and sighed with emotion...

At that moment, Shen Youwei was grateful Hu Xiaobei hadn't pursued a government post; otherwise, he might have had to cede his Mayor's position to him...

...

Two hours later, Hu Xiaobei and Shen Youwei left amid their farewells.

After the car left the compound, Shen Youwei patted his stomach and sincerely exclaimed, "Xiaobei, the taste of the vegetables and fruits you grow is really amazing. Although I've eaten them more than once before, just now, I couldn't help but eat a bit more."

As he spoke, patting his bloated stomach, Shen Youwei reminisced about the scene they had just left!

After tasting the tea, Hu Xiaobei had asked the cooks to prepare some dishes with the vegetables he had brought...

Once these dishes were served, everyone went crazy...

Although Shen Youwei had eaten them before, seeing others enjoying heartily, he couldn't resist and ended up overeating...

Thus, when Shen Youwei left, he noticed that the expressions of a few servants there seemed a bit odd…

...

Looking at the overstuffed Shen Youwei, Hu Xiaobei laughed, "Haha, Mayor Shen, you've been to our Xiaohe Village, you know how many vegetables and fruits we have, so if you ever want to eat, just let me know, I've got you covered."

"That wouldn't be right, it'd be too embarrassing! I should pay for them! You must take my money, you hear?"

"Fine! I'll take it, but I'll give you a discount, you shouldn't mind that."

"As long as it's just a discount, I have no objections!"

"Then it's settled!"

While Hu Xiaobei and Shen Youwei were continuing their conversation, Lin Yongqiang, who Hu Xiaobei had slapped earlier, returned to his company!

Ignoring those greeting him, he went straight into the elevator with a gloomy expression...

"Chairman Lin, did things go smoothly this time?"

Just as he pushed open the door to his office, he heard a lazy query.

Looking up, he saw his perfectly-shaped secretary lounging lazily on the black sofa.

"Beautiful!"

After his gaze swept over her legs wrapped in deep black stockings, Lin Yongqiang felt very excited!

Normally, Lin Yongqiang would have pounced on her immediately.

But right now, he just wasn't in the mood.

Seeing that Lin Yongqiang didn't pounce on her as usual, the beautiful secretary realized that things must have gone very poorly this time.

After gently shifting her delicate feet, she lazily sat up.

As her huge breasts gently jiggled with her movements, she stood up after sweeping back her hair.

She quickly approached Lin Yongqiang and lazily wrapped her arms around his waist, whispering softly, "Chairman Lin, did things not go well this time? If so, just let it out, I can help share the burden."

Hearing this, Lin Yongqiang sighed, "It was supposed to work out this time, but Guo Liang really screwed up."

"Guo Liang? Isn't he our company's top expert? He shouldn't have failed."

"I thought so too when it happened, but he failed miserably."

Seeing Lin Yongqiang grinding his teeth, she quickly consoled, "Chairman Lin, if even Guo Liang, our top expert, failed, then maybe it really means that orchid couldn't be saved, so you shouldn't dwell on it anymore."

"Not savable? If that orchid really couldn't be saved, I wouldn't be so angry. But after that incompetent Guo Liang declared it couldn't be saved, someone else managed to revive it, and my face was smacked hard."

"Oh my God, who could it be, to be so capable?"

"Who else? That persistent Hu Xiaobei. He straight-up revived that orchid that had been given up on, making both me and Guo Liang lose face completely."

"This... Chairman Lin, you just mentioned Hu Xiaobei? You... you must be joking! A lowly farmer, is that possible?"

Hearing Lin Yongqiang mention that Hu Xiaobei revived the orchid, she was stunned because she thought it was simply impossible!

Seeing her shocked expression, Lin Yongqiang blurted out, "At first, when that bastard Hu Xiaobei claimed he could cure it, I didn't believe it either, but it's true. Hu Xiaobei really did revive it."

"This…"

Seeing her still in disbelief, Lin Yongqiang, somewhat irritated, waved his hand, "Alright, enough about that rubbish. Just mentioning that bastard makes me feel horrible. By the way, I asked you to investigate Hu Xiaobei's company earlier, how did that go?"

Hearing Lin Yongqiang's serious inquiry, she smiled softly, "Chairman Lin, rest assured, I take care of things! I've mostly collected the information about Hu Xiaobei's fruit and vegetable company. Interestingly, the legal representative of Hu Xiaobei's company is not Hu Xiaobei himself, but a woman named Guo Meiyu..."

Upon hearing her words clearly, Lin Yongqiang paused slightly, "Huh? What did you say? The company's legal representative isn't Hu Xiaobei? How could that be!"
