The Billion-Value Lands Are Just For Farming

Chapter 241

C241 – Are You Familiar with Heads?

Upon opening the door, he was greeted by two recognizable individuals.

These were President Chen and Wang Guohui.

The duo maintained their usual attire.

Yet, two additional recliners had been placed at each side of the entrance.

Stationed like sentinels, the elderly gentlemen stood guard at the door prior to its opening.

Initially, their presence was met with bewilderment by onlookers.

People questioned the purpose of their setup.

Over time, though, the oddity became familiar.

Throughout the years, the pursuit of leisure had been universal.

The community was diverse in its members.

Possibly, the elder was engaging in a form of performance art.

Such activities were not unheard of.

Adapting to the scenario was all it took.

They warmly greeted Mr. Su, saying, “Good morning!”

Again, they wished Mr. Su a good morning.

Upon seeing Su Ming, the elderly men offered smiles.

They exchanged pleasantries before proceeding to their tasks.

Su Ming momentarily felt overwhelmed, as if he were a conduit for energy.

He wondered if they genuinely considered this place their place of employment.

Nonetheless, Su Ming held back any comments.

Having the company of the elders was comforting.

Without them, he’d be solitary in the expansive space.

While not physically taxing, tending to the land solo lacked variety.

Their occasional conversation made for a pleasant ambiance.

It was evident, however, that there was another presence aside from the elders.

Loong Tianyu entered, wearing a cheerful expression.

He greeted his great grandfather with exuberance.

His demeanor was notably cheerful and full of zeal.

President Chen and Wang Guohui took notice.

To their dismay, it seemed they faced competition for their role.

Having another elder would have been manageable.

Yet, the arrival of a vigorous young man presented a challenge.

They acknowledged their inability to compete with his vigor.

The name made Su Ming feel uncomfortable.

The elders were resolute in their manner of addressing him.

Despite Old Master Loong’s inebriation the prior evening, he remained lucid.

Their conversation revealed Su Ming’s exceptional nature.

Though Su Ming appeared unremarkable at first glance,

Their interactions revealed depths they couldn’t grasp.

Old Master Loong’s experience was vast.

Having lived nearly ninety years, he was seasoned and wise.

His life experiences included evaluating myriad individuals.

Youngsters lacking in depth were transparent to him.

Yet, in conversing with Su Ming, he recognized an ordinary facade masking profound depths.

Su Ming seemed straightforward, yet he was immeasurably complex.

This realization underscored Su Ming’s extraordinary capabilities.

It suggested Su Ming operated at a highly advanced level.

He had the mastery to reveal or conceal his true nature.

Su Ming’s control over what he displayed was absolute.

He could make visible what he chose to share.

Or keep hidden what he preferred remained unseen.

What was revealed was at Su Ming’s discretion.

Such emotional control in a young man was remarkable.

These qualities set Su Ming apart as extraordinary.

This prompted Old Master Loong’s decisive action.

He commanded his grandson to forsake the family business.

No further obligations were necessary.

Henceforth, his grandson was to accompany Mr. Su.

Learning even a fraction of Su Ming’s skills promised immense lifelong advantages.

This would allow him to confidently pass on the family legacy.

Consequently, the grandson was roused early by Old Master Loong.

Driven to this location at the crack of dawn.

He arrived by six, finding the elders already present with their recliners.

Loong Tianyu, young and hesitant, held back.

He opted to rest on a nearby chair.

After a while, he settled into his position.

Accustomed to a life of privilege, Loong Tianyu found a new role.

His reservations kept him at a distance.

He took to reclining beside them.

Spending time in reflection.

Born into affluence, Loong Tianyu was unaccustomed to such roles.

Nonetheless, he took up the position of a gatekeeper for Su Ming.

He waited for hours.

It wasn’t until he was overwhelmed by hunger at noon that the door opened.

Upon rising, he noticed the elders had already entered with swift diligence.

It was then that Loong Tianyu came to understand the profound correctness and wisdom of his grandfather’s decision.

Noteworthy figures such as President Chen and Wang Guohui found themselves needing to ingratiate themselves with him.

He recognized the necessity to ingratiate himself with Su Ming.

Consequently, he made his way over in haste.

“Please, just address me by my first name moving forward.”

Su Ming found himself greatly irritated.

Su Ming feared that if a youngster were to address him as “great-grandfather” in public, it would attract undue attention.

Additionally, Loong Tianyu held the position of the primary heir of the Long family.

It was known that Su Ming had a wide circle of acquaintances.

Su Ming worried that such acquaintanceships could lead to him being recognized as a patriarch to many upon his outings.

The thought was unbearable for him.

He also faced the obligation of distributing numerous red envelopes during the New Year.

His finances were stretched thin.

“Huh?”

Loong Tianyu was taken aback upon hearing this.

Loong Tianyu reflected on his grandfather’s advice to approach the situation with seriousness.

He considered that following his grandfather’s advice might incite Mr. Su’s anger.

Deciding against it, he chose to comply with Mr. Su’s preference.

“Mr. Su!”

Loong Tianyu approached with a nervous chuckle, rubbing his hands together.

Su Ming did not express any opposition to being addressed in this manner.

This form of address was deemed appropriate by Su Ming.

Su Ming hesitated to express any objection.

He believed that behaving normally was not something many he knew did.

Should he express opposition,

Loong Tianyu would persist in calling him “Great Grandfather.”

“Mr. Su, how may I assist you?”

This was Loong Tianyu’s initial visit.

He was still acclimating to his surroundings.

He appeared anxious as he scoped out the area.

“No!”

Before Su Ming could elaborate,

President Chen and Wang Guohui approached together.

They warned Loong Tianyu against attempting to take over the task.

They declared that even the arrival of his grandfather wouldn’t enable him to usurp their position.

The duo asserted their exclusive contract over the land, dismissing Loong Tianyu’s involvement.

They confronted Loong Tianyu aggressively.

Their demeanor was intimidating.

Loong Tianyu was momentarily speechless.

He felt overwhelmed by the situation.

Loong Tianyu protested his innocence.

He clarified that his inquiry was genuine, without ulterior motives.

He questioned the need for their severe reaction.

The elders insisted on their stern stance.

Their seriousness stemmed from past experiences with others attempting the same.

They had previously repelled others who contested the job.

Now, they claimed exclusive rights to Mr. Su’s land.

The land was firmly under their control, beyond the reach of others.

Su Ming found the unfolding events to be quite bothersome.

“Tianyu.”

Su Ming paused to consider his next words.

“Mr. Su!”

Loong Tianyu approached promptly.

The elderly duo listened intently, fraught with tension.

They worried about the possibility of Su Ming assigning Loong Tianyu to the job.

Despite their reluctance, they knew they would have to accept Su Ming’s decision.

The land was, after all, Su Ming’s to delegate.

Su Ming’s decision was final.

“Have you many connections in Eastsea?”

Su Ming inquired.

Loong Tianyu was momentarily perplexed by the question.

He felt uncertain about Su Ming’s intentions.

“Yes, I’m acquainted with many of the notable figures in Eastsea,” Loong Tianyu responded cautiously.

Su Ming smiled in response.

He pondered, stroking his chin.

Su Ming had expressed a desire to explore Eastsea.

Despite having never ventured there, he had been too occupied to indulge in leisure activities.

Following his agricultural endeavors, he found himself with some free time.

Yet, he was unfamiliar with Eastsea’s attractions.

Now, with Loong Tianyu’s extensive knowledge of Eastsea,

Su Ming saw an opportunity for Loong Tianyu to serve as his guide.
