Chapter 35

PS: Thank you to the reader 121220111046743 for the tip. I'm asking for favorites, clicks, and recommendations this new week; I'm also asking for tips and likes, all kinds of requests.

As cherry petals danced in the wind, Misaki opened the old diary and read the words of promise written there.

Qi Ping was secretly delighted, though he looked very troubled. "Guys, I can assure you, I need to control it now. You all know that the lettuce hasn't fully matured yet, and I can't supply it in large quantities right now."

Although only a small amount of lettuce was on the market, the effect was very good. So now, some distributors were starting to want to increase their supply. However, it was up to Qi Ping, as good products are never short of a market.

"I can only follow the contract we signed, guys. This isn't about me wanting to raise the price. Everyone understands that I simply can't provide enough lettuce right now." Qi Ping was deliberately putting on an act, clearly because he needed to prioritize the company he co-founded with Luo Yi.

After hanging up the phone, Qi Ping excitedly punched and kicked the air on the sofa. Although he was confident in his product, he had underestimated its quality. Clearly, this was the closest to USDA standard-grade vegetables, so it could be highly recognized and appreciated.

Now, it was obvious that the feedback from high-end restaurants was very good. In some supermarkets and vegetable stores, the news was also very positive. It seemed this would be a good start for Qi Ping to gradually increase sales, and there was no need to worry about good products being stuck in his hands.

These days, Qi Ping's mood was indeed very good. He was also considering hiring a personal financial manager. Although the accounts of the vegetable farm were clear, Qi Ping couldn't just manage everything himself. Of course, these tasks weren't particularly troublesome, as a larger business couldn't just handle every transaction on the spot.

Now, he was making over ten thousand dollars a day, and this income was increasing. In a week, he made nearly a hundred thousand dollars, which made Qi Ping feel completely different. He could now increase the supply, not only because the market had opened up but also because the lettuce was almost mature. Other vegetables like celery could wait a bit, as they would soon be ready for the market.

Now, with some spare money in hand, Qi Ping was happy. It seemed he didn't need to be so tight anymore and could officially start his off-road vehicle plan. However, before that, he still had some serious matters to attend to. He needed a personal financial expert, as the income from the forest farm was growing, and it was more reassuring and convenient for Qi Ping to have an expert manage it.

"I need you to take care of these matters. It's not a difficult task," Qi Ping simply stated his requirements at the office. This business was indeed not a difficult task for Taylor's office.

"Mr. Qi, I can assure you there will be no problem. We can handle these tasks well," Taylor was very confident. He was an excellent accountant, and although his office wasn't large, it was very capable. He was also responsible for the financial management of various farms and forest farms. "We can provide you with data at any time, and we will not make any mistakes. That's my professional ethics."

"I trust you, Jesse. Of course, I hope we can continue to work together. You know, I just arrived in the United States, and I lack the help of more professionals. I think perhaps we have a chance to cooperate, and you can help me manage tax matters. Of course, I need to see how far I can develop, and I hope I can earn more money, and I need someone to take charge." Qi Ping was also painting a big picture, and it was clear that if Jesse Taylor had the foresight, he could see Qi Ping's potential.

Qi Ping indeed had great potential. Now, he was making tens of thousands of dollars a day in vegetable transactions, and the scale would only get larger. As for Qi Ping himself, he was already a wealthy man, though his assets were mostly in his forest farm. But it was clear he was a wealthy man, an enviable one.

Having settled this matter, Qi Ping felt he had completed many tasks. The financial matters were handled by Taylor's office, the vegetable production at the forest farm was managed by Huang Siquing, and the sales were taken care of by Luo Yi and his team.

So Qi Ping was quite relaxed now, as he had basically settled these matters. He had adapted well to his new identity and knew how to maximize the benefits of his resources. He was a promising individual, a very good boss. Perhaps Qi Ping was secretly smiling, as he not only made money but also made a lot of money easily. He could count his money while living a comfortable and beautiful life.

"Everything is great for me now, just like you eating a lot of fruit every day," Qi Ping said, looking at Jingang peeling a banana in the passenger seat. He felt he needed a small breakthrough. "Do you think I should consider finding a partner? I've been busy all this time, and I'm not that young anymore."

Qi Ping felt he needed someone who could give him more advice, but unfortunately, it wasn't Jingang. The little guy was enjoying his banana and had no interest in giving advice. Besides, he was just a little over half a year old, and playing games and eating delicious fruits were his priorities.

Qi Ping was considering that he shouldn't be short of female friends. For example, he still had some contact with some of his female classmates from the past, and they occasionally chatted on QQ. He also met the rich second-generation Steve and the beautiful Elina.

However, thinking about it now, although he seemed to have a bit of luck with the opposite sex, it wasn't quite the case.

For example, the female classmates he was in contact with didn't even have their phone numbers. Also, Qi Ping didn't know them well and had no interest in getting to know them better. Clearly, it wasn't practical, as he was in the United States, and they were mostly in China.

Qi Ping was very practical and felt that distance was a big issue. Of course, thinking back, from elementary school to college, he knew what a class beauty was, but there was a situation where the class had some girls who looked decent, but they weren't truly heart-stirring, dreamy 'class beauties.'

Well, the reality was that Qi Ping felt his current conditions weren't bad. Good interests and hobbies were the most important, but he could also consider appearance at this time, such as being pretty, which was also a factor to consider.

As for Elina, Qi Ping had to admit she was the most beautiful of the women he had met. However, their personalities were very different. So perhaps they could be good friends, but there was no need to develop a deeper relationship, as that would be asking for trouble.

Actually, Qi Ping was very serious about relationships. Although he was now considered to have good conditions and was wealthy, he didn't plan to be a playboy or play with people's feelings. Although he had some money and was now a nouveau riche, some values were clearly not to be changed overnight and didn't need to be changed.
