Chapter 392 Peanuts as a Birthday Present

 

Translator: Lonelytree

After Li Yuanhang complained to Xiao Lingyu, he was no longer harassed at night.

But he was given more work to do.

Although Gong Tianhao was in Taoyuan Village, he usually worked remotely.

He held video conferences with his subordinates, and he gave them orders remotely too.

At the company, every order from Li Yuanhang

came from Gong Tianhao.

In the past, Gong Tianhao would only send Li Yuanhang to handle the big issues.

But now, he forwarded all the issues, big and small, to Li Yuanhang.

Hmph, who told you to hang up on me and complain about me to my wife.

I listened to her advice and stopped calling… harassing you at night.

‘But do you think youre safe from me then

Li Yuanhang looked at the one-foot-tall documents on his desk and was speechless.

He asked Secretary Dong, “Are there so many documents that need to be approved”

Secretary Dong saw so many documents and said, “There werent so many originally.

However, didnt you send out a few orders to report to you about the approval of project documents, personnel attendance,

financial cashier, and other departments.

So, just like that, a huge pile of documents appeared.”

Li Yuanhang, “…”

What had Gong Tianhao done This is torture… No, revenge!”

Secretary Dong said in puzzlement, “Special Assistant Li, why do you have to look at and approve these things They are obviously small matters.

For example, the attendance check.

An employee taking leave shouldnt

need your approval.”

Normally, only the employees department head needed to approve it.

But now, it came to Special Assistant Li.

Regardless, this was an order she received from her boss, so she obliged.

Li Yuanhang immediately understood that he had been played by Gong Tianhao.

Li Yuanhang rubbed his forehead a little irritably and said, “In the future, dont report these small matters to me.

They are going to exhaust me to death.”

Secretary Dong replied, “Yes!”

After Secretary Dong left, Li Yuanhang had no choice but to resign himself to his fate and read through these documents.

Whether it was big documents or small documents, he read them seriously.

Just when he was halfway through reading through the documents, Li Yuanhangs cell phone rang.

As soon as he heard his cell phone ring, he felt a wave of irritation in his heart.

He threw the pen in his hand away and picked up the cell phone.

Without looking at the display ID, he said in a somewhat unpleasant tone,

“Hello, who is this”

“Special Assistant Li, hello.

Im Peng Dawei,” the person on the other side introduced him very carefully.

“Oh, so its CEO Peng,” Li Yuanhang asked, “CEO Peng, whats the matter”

CEO Peng asked carefully, “Special Assistant Li, I heard that youre selling peanuts now”

Li Yuanhang nodded in confusion and said, “Yes, | am.”

CEO Peng immediately heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that.

He said, “Thats good.”

However, Li Yuanhang said, “But CEO Peng, there arent that many peanuts.

Im only selling them within Imperial Palace.”

There were more than 10,000 people in his company, and there were more than 1,000 executives with annual salaries of over a million.

Because of the precedent of peanut oil, these 700 catties of peanuts were digested internally.

Therefore, Li Yuanhang didnt need to sell peanuts to outsiders.

However, it didnt mean that the others wont receive the news.

CEO Peng said, “I know.

But, Special Assistant Li, can you sell me some peanuts”

Li Yuanhang raised his eyebrows and asked, “Why”

resident Peng said, “In three days, it will be my father-in-laws birthday.

I have been wondering about the birthday present I should give him.

“Yesterday, I heard your employees talking about the peanuts.

They said that the peanuts are very delicious.

Then, I remember my father-in-law likes to eat peanuts very much.”

Li Yuanhang raised his eyebrows and asked, “So, are you planning to give the peanuts to your father-in-law”

CEO Peng scratched his head and nodded in embarrassment.

“Yes.

Thats my plan.”

Li Yuanhang smiled and said, “But dont you think peanuts are too cheap of a birthday present” For people of their status, they would give gifts like jade stones or antiques.

Only then would they not be looked down on.

by others.

Li Yuanhang had not heard of anyone giving peanuts as presents before.

CEO Peng said seriously, “The intention is more important than the value.

Besides, I know my father-in-law loves peanuts.

However, his teeth havent been that good these years.

He can only eat the soft-boiled

peanuts.

“But peanuts lose their flavor after that.

So my father-in-law doesnt really like them.

“However, I believe that your peanuts will taste amazing after theyre cooked.

“If my father-in-law thinks the peanuts are too cheap, then Ill immediately prepare another set of expensive gifts.”

So he had two sets of gifts.

“But I am confident that my father-in-law will love the peanuts.” CEO Peng said confidently.

Li Yuanhang was amused by his words.

“Where did you get such confidence from” After Li Yuanhang asked this question, he snapped back to reality and asked again, “Have you eaten those peanuts” Otherwise, how could he be so confident that the

peanuts could please his father-in-law

CEO Peng said somewhat embarrassedly, “Thats right.

I heard from your employees that these peanuts are the raw materials for extracting the peanut oil.

I got some of the peanuts to taste through my connections.

“Even when eaten raw, they taste fresh, crisp, and sweet.

They are exceptionally delicious.”

After Li Yuanhang heard that, he nodded and said, “Alright.

Since you have so much confidence to use the peanuts as a present, I wont discourage you.

Well, how many peanuts do you want”

Hearing that, CEO Peng almost jumped up in joy.

He suppressed his excitement and said, “Special Assistant Li, can you give me 100 catties”

“100 catties” Li Yuanhang immediately denied it.

“No, I can only give you 10 catties at most.” He really did not have 100 catties on his hands.

Some peanuts that Xiao Lingyu had sent to him earlier had been snatched away by a few female bandits.

He only had 100 catties that he had hidden for himself.

He ate them daily like snacks.

The fact that he was willing to share 10 catties from his limited stock was already good enough.

Although CEO Peng was a little dissatisfied with only 10 catties, he did not have the courage to say it out loud.

He nodded and said, “Okay, 10 catties it is.

Then, Special Assistant Li, I will transfer the money to you in a while.”

Special Assistant Li nodded, but then he said, “CEO Peng, these peanuts were originally intended to be sold to my companys employees only.

So the price was my employees price.”

Since CEO Peng could get his hands on the peanuts, he must have found out about the price too.

Li Yuanhang was a businessman.

The peanuts were sold at a special price for the company employees, but it was a different story for outsiders.

Moreover, both the seller and the buyer had a certain status in the industry.

lus, the buyer wasnt willing to buy the peanuts cheaply either.

Yes, you read that right.

f a big boss bought too cheap of a thing, he would be mocked.

Everyone needed face, especially a big boss with status.

“Cough cough…” Li Yuanhang said righteously, “Thats right.

The original price of these peanuts is 200 RMB per catty.

But since they are meant to be a birthday present from CEO Peng to his father-in-law, they should

be more valuable, right”

n other words, the peanuts couldnt be sold too cheaply.

The higher the price, the better.

The corner of CEO Pengs mouth twitched, and then he nodded in agreement.

“What Special Assistant Li said makes sense.

Special Assistant Li, what price do you have in mind”

Chief Peng was also trying to figure out what price to offer.

However, Li Yuanhang pushed back the question with a smile and said, “This depends on how much filial piety CEO Peng wants to show.”

When CEO Peng heard this, he immediately cursed in his heart.

‘What an old fox! But very soon, he tried to give a price and said, “1,000 per catty, how about it”

That was a five times increase from the original price.

Li Yuanhang didnt say anything concrete.

He smiled, “This is already a five times increase.

I am sure your father-in-law will be so happy when he finds out youve bought him a present of only 10,000 RMB.”

When President Peng heard this, his heart suddenly thumped, and he thought to himself,Li Yuanhang is not satisfied with the price.

That was right.

Li Yuanhang was being sarcastic.

For a normal family, ten thousand worth of peanuts was already a big gift, but who was CEO Peng

He was a big boss with a net worth of several billion.

A big boss with a net worth of several billion gave his father-in-law a birthday gift of only ten thousand.

This was a big joke.

CEO Peng Thought for a moment and said, “Then ten thousand RMB per catty.”

He was very certain that his father-in-law would like these peanuts, so he was willing to spend a lot of money to buy them.

Of course, this would improve his reputation too.

Li Yuanhangs tone was still the same.

“10,000 per catty.

Not bad, not bad.”

CEO Peng, “…” He is still not satisfied.

n the end, the transaction price of these 10 catty peanuts reached 500,000.

CEO Peng was rich, but he had never spent as carelessly as this before.

He used 500,000 to buy ten catties of peanuts.

He wanted to cry, but no tears came out.

He wanted to return the goods.

However, when he saw the plump and cute peanuts, he changed his mind.

Some might think he was a fool with a lot of money, but he believed it was worth it.

Three days later, it was Peng Yufeis father-in-laws 80th birthday.

Peng Yufeis father-in-law, Guan Zhendong, was a well-known figure in the capital.

He was also a businessman, a self-made businessman, who founded the Zhendong Group.

Then he established a firm foothold in the capital.

He had three sons and two daughters.

The youngest daughter was Peng Yufeis wife.

Guan Zhengdong was nearing his retirement age, so his sons and daughters had started to fight for power in the company.

They all wanted to take this opportunity to curry favor with their father-in-law and then coax him to transfer the shares of the group ahead of time and seize the position of the companys chairman.

Therefore, everyone put a lot of thought into this birthday celebration.

“Brother-in-law, youre not going to tell me that youre going to give these peanuts to dad for his birthday today, are you” In the banquet hall, a middle-aged man looked at the present Peng Yufei was carrying with a

disdainful expression.

Peng Yufei nodded and said, “Yes, the present Im giving dad today is just peanuts.”

Then, he looked at Guan Zhendong and said with a smile, “Dad, I know you love eating peanuts.

So, I spent a high price on buying these peanuts for you to try.”

“How expensive can peanuts be” Peng Yufeis brother-in-law said disdainfully and contemptuously, “Everyone knows how cheap peanuts are.

You can buy them at the mall for 3 or 4 RMB per catty.

I think you have

around ten catties here.

You spent thirty to forty RMB on a gift, and you said they were expensive.

Brother-in-law, how shameless can you be”

Peng Yufei completely ignored him.

Instead, he peeled a peanut and gave it to Guan Zhendong, “Dad, try it.

Ive eaten this peanut before.

Its really very delicious.”

His brother-in-law immediately stomped his feet and said, “Peng Yufei, you deliberately dont want dad to have a good birthday, dont you You know that Dad has bad teeth, yet you still let Dad eat peanuts What are

you thinking”

Only then did Peng Yufei give him a look of charity and then say, “Brother-in-law, Im only giving Dad some peanuts.

How is that wrong I know Dad has bad teeth, but I assure you he can eat these peanuts.”

At this time, Guan Zhendong was also somewhat tempted and asked, “Yufei, can I eat these peanuts” With that, he picked up a peanut from Peng Yufeis palm and stared at it.

“Dad, yes, you can.” Peng Yufei nodded

Then, Guan Zhendong put the peanut into his mouth and took a bite.

His eyes lit up, and he immediately said, “Well, not bad.

These peanuts are indeed not bad.

Butler, put these peanuts away immediately and peel me

some.”

“Yes!” The Butler replied very respectfully and then took the peanuts from Peng Yufeis hand.

Peng Yufeis brothers-in-law looked at this in confusion.

‘Fuck, these peanuts really caught Dads eye.

After Guan Zhendong ate one, he took another one from Peng Yufeis hands and put it in his mouth.

He ate it until his eyes turned crescent with joy.

Everyone,”…”

Dad even asked the Butler to keep the peanuts.

He must love the gift very much.

Peng Yufeis brother-in-law was unwilling to accept this.

He sneered and asked, “Brother-in-law, didnt you say that you spent a high price on buying these peanuts Did you spend a thousand”

Peng Yufei smiled and said, “Not a thousand.”

“Oh, then its a few hundred” The man chided.

“Its five hundred thousand!”

“Five hundred thousand” The brother-in-law was shocked..
