Chapter 319 - Experiencing the New Car

“Auntie Wang, are you busy?”

Chen Yang approached, smiling as he spoke.

Wang Hong was cutting grass and looked up when she heard the voice.

Upon seeing Chen Yang, she also smiled, “Yeah, what’s up, any new instructions?”

“Hehe.”

Chen Yang chuckled lightly, “No instructions, I came to discuss something with you.”

“What is it, just tell me.”

Wang Hong didn’t beat around the bush and immediately asked when she heard there was something.

Afterward, Chen Yang talked about wanting to lease the land at the head of her village.

“Lease that plot of land?

What do you want to do with it?”

Wang Hong’s face was full of surprise.

“I’ve been expanding recently, right?

I want to set up another big greenhouse.

After looking around, I found that the land of your family is most suitable.”

Chen Yang explained with a smile.

“Oh, I see.”

Wang Hong understood but then she had some concerns, “But I’ve planted a lot of corn there, what will happen to it if you set up a greenhouse?

Wouldn’t it be a pity to waste them?”

Wang Hong said, feeling somewhat distressed.

“Don’t worry, I’ve already planned for this.”

Chen Yang spoke unhurriedly, “We can harvest all the corn before the construction team arrives, use it to feed the pheasants, and just leave the straw on the ground to serve as fertilizer for the greenhouse.”

With Chen Yang’s explanation, the distressed expression on Wang Hong’s face disappeared.

“Oh, then it’s okay to lease it.”

Then she directly agreed to lease the land to Chen Yang.

After Wang Hong agreed, Chen Yang discussed the price with her.

The plot of land was quite large, so Chen Yang couldn’t shortchange her.

He offered three thousand yuan a year, for a total of ten years, which amounted to thirty thousand yuan.

Chen Yang paid on the spot.

Seeing the sudden deposit of thirty thousand yuan, Wang Hong was overjoyed.

“Alright, you go ahead with your work, I’ll go back to have breakfast, and then we can go harvest the corn together,”

Chen Yang said with a smile.

“Sure, sure, I’m almost done here too, I’ll wait for you in the field,”

Wang Hong nodded with a smile.

Then Chen Yang went back home.

After washing up and having breakfast, he headed to the cornfield at the head of the village.

Wang Hong and Auntie Zhang Li Xiaoe had been waiting there for a while.

As soon as they saw Chen Yang arrive, they immediately got to work.

Using sickles, they cut down the tall corn and harvested the ears.

The four of them worked quickly, and in less than half an hour, a large area of corn had fallen.

And the cobs had been taken away.

No sooner had Chen Yang finished with the field and sat down to rest than his phone rang in his pocket.

It was Wu Kexin calling.

“Chen Yang, where are you?

Boss Lin from the construction team has arrived,”

Wu Kexin said over the phone.

Chen Yang glanced subconsciously toward his home’s front gate and then said, “I’m at the head of the village, you bring Boss Lin and his team over.”

“The head of the village?

What are you doing there?”

Wu Kexin asked, puzzled.

“I’ve leased some land here; the new greenhouse is going to be on this spot,”

Chen Yang explained.

“Oh, I see, I’ll be right there.”

Wu Kexin hung up the phone, and a few minutes later, she arrived at the head of the village with the construction team.

Seeing the fallen corn and Chen Yang resting on the ridge, Wu Kexin knew where they were.

“This land is so spacious, you can make a really big greenhouse here,”

Wu Kexin said as she approached Chen Yang.

Chen Yang smiled, “Yeah, this time I want to build a big one, so I won’t have to set up a greenhouse again and again.”

After speaking, Chen Yang stood up, and at that moment, Boss Lin also approached.

With a beaming smile, Boss Lin extended his hand, “Boss Chen, your business is getting bigger and bigger, huh?

It hasn’t been long, and here I am again.”

“Hehe, just a small business.

I’ll need your help again this time to put up an even bigger greenhouse,”

Chen Yang also extended his hand, exchanging pleasantries with Boss Lin.

Then, Chen Yang and Boss Lin stood there, getting into the finer details of how to set up the new greenhouse.

Chen Yang and Boss Lin had worked together before, so they quickly came to a clear understanding.

“Alright, I’ve got a good understanding of the situation.

We’ll get to work and get it done for you as soon as possible!”

Mr.

Lin said.

“Mm-hmm, then I’ll leave this matter to you.”

Chen Yang laughed.

After discussing these issues, Mr.

Lin led the construction team to set up machinery at the entrance of the village and began construction.

Chen Yang, with nothing else to do, sat with Wu Kexin and watched.

They sat there until around eleven o’clock in the morning.

Wu Kexin’s phone suddenly rang.

She walked aside and took the call for a few minutes.

Then she came over to Chen Yang and said, “Chen Yang, the town mayor just called, saying that someone from the Gu Family wants to talk to you today.”

“The Gu Family’s coming?”

Hearing about the Gu Family, Chen Yang stood up, “Okay, when will they arrive?”

“Umm…

two o’clock in the afternoon in the town.

The mayor wants us to talk in the town, so he can mediate for us,”

Wu Kexin said.

Hearing about going to town, Chen Yang was somewhat reluctant.

He had initially demanded an apology from the Gu Family before any negotiations.

If they were to apologize, naturally they should do so in person.

So what was this about going to town?

Chen Yang was a bit displeased in his heart, but then he thought about needing the money and let it go.

“Alright, then let’s go to town.”

Chen Yang agreed with a nod and then could not help asking, “Are you going with me?”

Wu Kexin smiled, “Of course I’ll accompany you.

You don’t want to go alone, do you?”

Hearing that, Chen Yang instantly felt better.

“Since that’s the case, let’s not go back for lunch.

We’ll eat at my place, and then head out directly after,”

Chen Yang suggested.

“Umm…

okay, it just so happens I don’t feel like going back and fixing something on my own,”

Wu Kexin agreed with a smile, and then the two stayed at the construction site for a while before heading back.

Back at home, Chen Yang made a decent lunch, which they both ate.

Afterward, they prepared to head to town.

Before going to town, Chen Yang dug out the leasing contract for the barren hill from his house.

To transfer the leasing rights, he couldn’t just leave this document behind.

“Let’s go, let’s head out now.”

With the contract in hand, Chen Yang set out with Wu Kexin.

As they reached the entrance of the clinic and closed the door, Wu Kexin was still waiting for Chen Yang to go to the backyard to ride the tricycle.

But, to her surprise, Chen Yang directly got into the new van parked at the entrance.

Wu Kexin had seen the van that morning but hadn’t associated it with Chen Yang at all.

Now, seeing him get in, she immediately understood.

Chen Yang had bought a car.

“When did you buy it?

What about your tricycle?”

Wu Kexin’s face was full of surprise.

Seeing the surprised look on Wu Kexin’s face, Chen Yang said with a laugh, “I bought it yesterday while delivering lobsters.

The business is growing, so the tricycle wasn’t convenient anymore, that’s why I bought this van.”

“Get in; I’ll tell you about it on the way.”

“Okay.”

Wu Kexin, still surprised, got into the car and listened as Chen Yang recounted the previous day’s events.

“So that’s how it was.

It’s good you bought it, we’ll need it anyway.

The temperature will drop soon, so riding the tricycle would indeed be inconvenient,”

Now sitting in the car, Wu Kexin truly enjoyed the feel of Chen Yang’s new vehicle.

Even though it was just a van, she felt incredibly pleased, as if she were in a luxurious car.

“Can you turn on the air conditioning?”

Wu Kexin suddenly asked.

Chen Yang, who was driving, found the question somewhat amusing, “Isn’t that obvious?

What age do you think we’re living in?

Of course, it has air conditioning.”

“Then turn it on for me, I want to feel it,”

As soon as Wu Kexin heard there was air conditioning, she immediately wanted to experience it.

Chen Yang found Wu Kexin’s curious demeanor a bit comical—are they not just in a van and not some high-tech gadget?

Does she have to be this excited?

But he didn’t say anything and turned on the car’s air conditioning for her.

The vent started blowing cold air with a whir.

“Mmm…

much more comfortable,”

Feeling the cool air, Wu Kexin blissfully closed her eyes.

Chen Yang smiled helplessly, shook his head, and concentrated on driving.

Before long, they arrived at the town.
