Farming Space Makes Me Rich

After Jiang Shuyu had dinner with the Jiang family, she went back to her home.

As the car drove down the road, her pupils suddenly constricted in disbelief.

'Wait, is that Xiao Lingye by the bus stop? Why is he there?

'But this is the silk-stocking district. Most residents here are powerful and influential in Beijing. A villa here is worth at least 500 to 600 million. So what is Xiao Lingye doing here? He looks like he's waiting for the bus.'

"Xiao Yu, what's wrong?" Mrs. Jiang saw her daughter's strange expression. She followed her daughter's gaze and saw a handsome young man standing next to the bus stop. She frowned slightly and asked, "Do you know that young man?"

His looks and figure were not bad, but someone who took the bus was a poor person. She would never allow her daughter to like such a man. Her daughter couldn't even befriend a poor person.

Jiang Shuyu came back to her senses and said with a smile, "Mom, this boy is a classmate of mine."

Mrs. Jiang was slightly surprised and asked, "Oh? Is he also a student of imperial university?"

She had already driven past the bus stop, but Mrs. Jiang still looked back curiously.

Jiang Shuyu nodded and said, "Yes, not only is he a student of Imperial university, but he has also been hailed as the best male student on campus. He is handsome, tall, and capable. Many female classmates adore him."

When Mrs. Jiang heard her daughter's words, she immediately became alert. She suddenly asked, "Oh, such an outstanding male classmate. What is his family background?" If his family background were good, then she wouldn't stop her daughter from dating this young man.

When her mother asked this, Jiang Shuyu immediately thought of the embarrassing situation where she was rejected. A resentful and angry look appeared in her eyes, and then she said with contempt and contempt, "It's nothing. He's just a poor guy from the countryside."

When Mrs. Jiang heard this, she immediately warned her daughter seriously, "Jiang Shuyu, I'm warning you. You should stay far away from such a poor guy."

This was a country bumpkin, a poor guy with no identity or background. No matter how capable he was, he couldn't make a name for himself in the capital. At most, he could only be a small white-collar worker. The difference between him and the Jiang family was like heaven and earth.

Jiang Shuyu said with a smile, "Mom, don't worry. I don't like such a poor guy at all. He doesn't deserve me at all. However, he pesters me nonstop. I feel like playing with him."

Hearing that, Madam Jiang immediately felt relieved. She nodded and said, "It's best that you think like that. Jiang Shuyu, I'm warning you. You can play with him, but you can't develop real feelings. Do you understand?"

Jiang Shuyu said with a smile, "Mom, such a poor person can't even afford to buy me a piece of clothing. How can I possibly take a fancy to him, right? Don't worry. I'm just playing with him. However, this person has talent and ability. Wouldn't it be better to scout him to join our family's company? Once he's devoted to me, he will spare no effort to create value for our family's company, right?"

When Mrs. Jiang heard this, her eyes lit up, and she immediately nodded, "Mm, not bad, daughter. You have foresight. If he's really that talented, we should recruit him. Xiao Yu, you need to ensnare this man. However, you mustn't develop real feelings."

Jiang Shuyu leaned on her mother and said with a smile, "How is that possible, mother!"

The car gradually drove away. Jiang Shuyu glanced at the figure in the distance and swore to herself, 'Xiao Lingye, I will definitely make you pay back the humiliation you have given me a hundred times over! Let's just wait and see!'

...

The Beijing supermarket was already on the right track.

Every day before the supermarket was opened, it was already bustling with activity outside.

Xiao Lingyu was only in charge of overall management and giving orders. Everything in the supermarket was managed by the manager and supervisor of the supermarket.

Many customers would come to the supermarket every day before dawn and queue up. They acted like the stuff in the supermarket was free. However, the reality was the exact opposite. The things here were ridiculously expensive.

Reality proved that as long as it was gold, it would shine wherever it went. As long as the items were good, no matter how expensive they were, there would be people fighting to buy them.

After the situation in the supermarket stabilized, Xiao Lingyu began to take over the matters of the Gong family as the madam.

However, the Gong family had not had a mistress for 30 years. There were many matters that needed to be handled. Normally, they were handled by the housekeeper. Thankfully, the matters were not complicated. After all, the Gong Family only had Grandfather Gong and Gong Tianhao.

But the work had accumulated over the years.

Xiao Lingyu took a pile of thick books from the housekeeper, and the corners of her mouth could not help but twitch.

Why did she feel like she had returned to ancient times?

In those wealthy families, the mistress was in charge of the family finance.

The housekeeper said very respectfully, "Young madam, these books are the income and expenses of the Gong family for the past three years. Young Madam, please check them!"

Through the accounts, one could roughly see some of the internal affairs of the Gong family. At the same time, one might be able to see the character of the Gong Family members through the movements of their funds.

Xiao Lingyu took the account book and asked, "Grandpa Li, who usually registers these accounts?"

The housekeeper replied respectfully, "Young Madam, I normally keep the accounts. As for the details, we have special accounts to do the statistics."

Xiao Lingyu nodded, "Okay. Oh, right, Grandpa Li, do you still use the accounts book to register everything? Why aren't we using a computer?" Using a handwritten book was really troublesome.

Grandpa Li said with a smile, "At my age, I don't really know how to use a computer. However, young madam, I'll leave this family to you in the future. You can do whatever you want!"

Xiao Lingyu said with a smile, "Okay, I got it. Thank you, Grandpa Li!"

Xiao Lingyu turned around and looked at the stack of ledgers. She suddenly felt a slight headache.

She did not understand. Wasn't her husband a business genius? Why was his family still using such an old-fashioned accounting method at home? It would take days to go through the books.

At night, when Gong Tianhao returned home, he looked around and asked, "Grandpa Li, where's young madam?"

The housekeeper smiled and said, "Eldest young master, Young Madam is in the study."

When Gong Tianhao heard this, he was a little confused, "In the study?"

Then, he headed towards the study.

He saw Xiao Lingyu hard at work. He asked, "Yu 'Er, what are you looking at?"

When Xiao Lingyu heard Gong Tianhao's voice, she immediately smiled and said, "Tianhao, you're home."

"What are you looking at?" Gong Tianhao immediately noticed the large pile of books on the table. He frowned slightly and asked with some confusion, "Are you looking at the family account books?"

Xiao Lingyu nodded and said, "That's right. Since I've joined the Gong Family, naturally, have to assume the responsibilities of the mistress of the Gong family. These are some of the internal account books of the Gong family. I'll take a look first to understand the situation."

Gong Tianhao said nonchalantly, "These are all old accounts. There's nothing to see. You can start with the new accounts. You don't have to pay attention to the messy things of the past. Otherwise, it'll be too tiring. I can't bear to see you so tired. You have so many things to do yourself."

"..." Xiao Lingyu said somewhat speechlessly, "These are only the account books of the past two years. They are already quite recent."

Gong Tianhao was still a little unhappy. He did not want Xiao Lingyu to be so tired.

Xiao Lingyu saw Gong Tianhao's unhappy expression and immediately hugged his face. She buried her face in his arms and tried to persuade him, "Tianhao, since I'm married to you, I have to take on the duties and responsibilities as the mistress of the Gong family. I know that you feel sorry for me. Don't worry. I'll take good care of myself. I won't let myself be too tired."

Gong Tianhao thought for a moment and said, "How about this? We'll get someone trustworthy to handle the accounts. You don't need to go over the small details. Also, our family is not that complicated anyway.

"As for the people coming over to ask for favors, just push them away. Use my name if you want. You don't need to entertain them if you don't want to." Gong Tianhao knew about those things too. Since the Gong Family was the most powerful family, many people liked to come to ask for help.

Xiao Lingyu found it funny when she heard this. She nodded and said, "Yes. Thank you."
