Chapter 384: Jealous
Translator: Lonelytree

‘When Xiao Lingyu took out her phone and saw the latest information on the phone, she was so shocked that her mouth was wide open.
“5… 5.2 million!” Xiao Lingyu could not believe her eyes at all.

She thought that she had seen it wrongly because her eyes were tired. She rubbed her eyes and saw a big string of zeros behind 52.

“1,100 catties of peanut oil was sold for 5.2 million!” Xiao Lingyu said in surprise, “Gong Tianhao, this can’t be true, can it?”

“It’s true!” Gong Tianhao nodded.

Xiao Lingyu asked in confusion, “Didn’t you say that it was 1,000 RMB per catty? 1,000 catties is only 1,000,000. Where did 5,000,000 come from?”

Gong Tianhao smiled and said calmly, “Yu Er, don’t you know that times have changed? Back then, we sold it for 1,000, but reality proved that our peanut oil is a good item. Naturally, we have the right to raise the price.”

Good things naturally became more expensive.

“So, the price now is 4,000 per catty.”

“Ah?!” Xiao Lingyu could not believe it. She was too shocked. They sold 1 catty of peanut oil for 50 RMB around the village, but the same 1 catty was sold for 4.000 in the capital.

Gong Tianhao was delighted when he saw Xiao Lingyu’s big round eyes widen in shock.

He tidied Xiao Lingyu’s bangs and said, “Yu ‘Er, there’s no need to be surprised. These are all clever people.

“Our peanut oil can not be found anywhere else in the world, let alone in the entire country. They are exclusive to our family, so the price is not high at all.

“For example, the Da Hong Pao at the nine dragon nest scenic spot on Mount Wu Shi was once auctioned off at a price of over 10 million per catty. It is because there are only three mother trees left. The value of the tree alone is over 100 million.

“Our peanut oil isn’t that rare, but it’s still a world-exclusive.””

Gong Tianhao couldn’t say he had tasted all kinds of cooking oil from the world. What he ate at home was usually arranged by a butler. It was also high-end imported cooking oil. It was fragrant and tasty. However, they were incomparable to the peanut oil. So he thought the pricing was still too low.
Hearing what Gong Tianhao said, the corner of Xiao Lingyu’s lips curled up, and then she said, “You’re right. The rarer the thing, the more expensive it is. However, our peanut oil won’t be that rare for long. There will be more in the future.”

After all, she had planted several hundred Mu of peanuts in the mountains.

“That’s not a problem!” Gong Tianhao said, “Cooking oil is an everyday grocery item. Also, the families in the capital are normally very large. They will cook over 40 dishes for a single meal. That will exhaust several catties of peanut oil instantly. The 1000 catties you sent over were barely enough!”

Even if someone wanted to buy the entire 1000 catties, Li Yuanhang wouldn’t allow it. They didn’t need the money. They were helping Xiao Lingyu open up the high-end agricultural product market in the capital. With the Gong Family supporting her, even if the people in the capital noticed something was
not right, no one dared to touch her.

Since Xiao Lingyu had made the decision to go for the high-end market, naturally, Gong Tianhao had to do everything to support her.
Xiao Lingyu held her phone and said with a smile, “I suddenly have the urge to turn the remaining 2000 catties of peanuts into the oil. Then I’ll instantly become a millionaire.”
Gong Tianhao also smiled and said, “You’re already a millionaire.

“Think about it. You already have a few million in cash and a few million invested in your mountains. In total, that’s more than 10 million.”

Xiao Lingyu thought for a while and said, “You’re right. Although, I still owe the bank 3.8 million.”

“Hehe…” Gong Tianhao felt that Xiao Lingyu was really cute. Then, he asked, “So, will you press the remaining peanuts for oil?”

Xiao Lingyu thought for a moment and shook her head. “No. I’ll sell them directly!”

Gong Tianhao nodded. “Then, will you sell them in the capital?”

“Just some.” Xiao Lingyu lowered her brows and thought for a moment before saying, “I have to give Special Assistant Li 200 catties of peanuts to thank him for his recent help.”
As she said this, her eyes lit up, and a crafty light flashed across her eyes.

Gong Tianhao was a little displeased when he heard this.

He was the one who ordered Li Yuanhang to sell the peanut oil. In the end, the person Yu ‘Er thanked was not him.

Gong Tianhao was a little unhappy.

“Li Yuanhang won’t get his holiday this year.’

Li Yuanhang, who was far away, “…” I’m clearly innocent, alright.
People who were jealous can not be reasoned with.

Seeing the slight change in Gong Tianhao’s expression, Xiao Lingyu rolled her eyes. Then, she smiled and said seriously, “Of course, the person I should thank the most is Mr. Gong Tianhao. If it weren’t for Mr. Gong Tianhao’s wisdom to send my peanut oil to the capital, I wouldn’t become a millionaire so
soon.”

Gong Tianhao’s unhappy eyes lit up, and he said excitedly, “Yu ‘Er, I only want you to be happy. I don’t need you to thank me, really!”
Xiao Lingyu was a little speechless when she heard that. She thought to herself, ‘Such a liar. When I thanked Li Yuanhang and not you, you looked so aggrieved.’
However, when Xiao Lingyu saw the change in Gong Tianhao’s expression, she curled her lips in amusement.

She was in a good mood.

In the distance, the villagers, who came and went, saw Xiao Lingyu and Gong Tianhao stuck together every day. They found it funny.
‘When the villagers saw Mother Xiao, they asked jokingly, “Qiuying, the relationship between Lingyu and Young Master Gong is getting better and better every day. When are you planning to set a date for them to get married?”

“That’s right. He’s such a good son-in-law. You have to make sure Yu’Er snatch him up!”

“Speaking of which, Young Master Gong treats Lingyu so well that there’s nothing to complain about.” The person who said this was filled with envy, “Young Master Gong is handsome and rich. Most importantly, he treats Lingyu really well.”
‘When they found out that Xiao Lingyu had slept with an unknown man and became pregnant, the villagers had mocked her many times. They didn’t dare to mock her in the open, but who knew what they said behind closed doors.

However, when Gong Tianhao appeared, and they saw how serious and attentive he was to Xiao Lingyu, the surrounding people could not help but feel jealous.

How could Xiao Lingyu be so lucky?

She had been ruined, but all the good men stuck to her. They were all handsome and wealthy too.

Of course, these were not the things that people envied the most.

‘What they envied the most was that there was a man by Xiao Lingyu’s side protecting her every day. Moreover, this man had money.

What kind of woman wouldn’t want to marry a rich man?

But this rich man had a unique taste. He liked a ruined woman, one who was also carrying a bastard child.

“Qiuying, it’s not that I want to criticize you. Perhaps the two youngsters are too embarrassed. So you have to speak up for them.”

Someone kindly reminded her, “Don’t you know that there are a few unmarried girls in the village who are staring at Young Master Gong with burning gazes?

“There are few times that I saw that Dahua falling before Young Master Gong. One time can be an accident, but a few times? Basically, whenever she’s around Young Master Gong, she will fall.”

‘This Dahua was Zhang Chunjiao’s divorced daughter.

Hearing the villager’s words, a dark light flashed in Mother Xiao’s eyes. She asked, “Is what you said true?”

“Of course, it’s true. I have no reason to lie to you, right?” The villager said confidently.

Mother Xiao nodded and said, “Okay. Don’t spread this news anymore. My family needs a person to help mow the land tomorrow. Are you free to come over?”
