Chapter 92: The College Entrance Exam, A War Between Two Old Fathers!
Between Two Old Fathers!
The entire senior class of Jiangning No.1 High School quickly became frenzied. Students who tore up their books, sang songs, and made confessions, left the juniors in complete bewilderment.
During this time, Principal Wang Yi didnt suppress their actions. The reason was simple: these students had been repressed for too long. Suppressing them now would seem inconsiderate, so the school chose to turn a blind eye.
After school, upon returning home, Su Lin found the lights in the villa were on. He saw a Rolls-Royce Phantom parked in the courtyard. Without a doubt, it must be Su Zhenguo returning home.
Strange, why did this Old Su come back at this time?
Entering the villa, Su Lin saw Su Zhenguo sitting on the sofa watching TV. Su Zhenguo looked quite like Su Lin, but was about ten centimeters shorter.
Despite being in his forties and bearing the marks of time, he still carried an air of mature charm that was hard to resist. If Su Lin hadnt read novels, he would have suspected Su Zhenguo of keeping a mistress. Such a waste of good looks.
Unfortunately, Su Zhenguo was a man of deep emotions, devoting all his energy to his career.
Dad! Why are you back?
Su Zhenguo smiled, You have your college entrance exam tomorrow, of course, I have to come and see. I cant miss it.
Su Lin looked at him skeptically, Really? I dont believe it.
You little rascal, would your father lie to you? Su Zhenguo seemed surprised as he looked at Su Lin.
His reason for coming back was simple. The construction site was starting, and there were some unresolved issues with the Agricultural Bureau.
The construction had temporarily stopped. Since Su Lin was about to take his exams, he hurried back.
Lie or not, you must have your reasons for coming back. I dont care to ask.
Hehe, Xiao Lin, youve really grown up.
Before, they rarely communicated, especially Su Lin, who hardly spoke to him and locked himself in his room after school.
To his surprise, after some time, Su Lin was willing to joke with him, as if the previous barriers had instantly vanished. He seemed like a changed person, much more mature.
Hows school?
Su Lin grabbed a soda from the table and gulped down two mouthfuls, Just so-so, Im first in the whole school, no suspense.
Heh! I heard you started a company in Zhongjiang? Su Zhenguo raised an eyebrow.
Startled, Su Lin then nodded, I set up Quan Le Gou.
Su Zhenguo looked at her approvingly, The supermarket is indeed a good venture. I have to admit, you chose a good direction for starting a business. It seems youre planning to corporatize and chain it?
Su Lin nodded, Yes, supermarket chains are an inevitable trend. If I dont do it, someone else will, and it would be too late to catch up then. Currently, no one else is doing it in Jiangnan, so expansion is easy.
Seven stores? I thought it was six? Su Zhenguo looked puzzled.
Dad, youve been quite thorough in keeping up with my affairs.
Su Zhenguo nonchalantly replied, You are my son. I have to keep an eye on things. What if you get scammed?
Su Lin nodded, There are six in Zhongjiang, already under renovation, and one more in Donghai.
Donghai too! This surprised Su Zhenguo. Since Su Lin made a fortune from hoarding gastrodia, he had kept an eye on him. However, he didnt expect him to have expanded to Donghai without any noise.
Yes, its the provincial capital of Jiangnan, so its necessary. Otherwise, how can we move out of Jiangnan?
So, are you planning to center around Donghai?
For now, yes. But Donghai is just a stepping stone. Ultimately, I plan to go to Magic City, Capital City, and other places to compete with the big players.
Su Lins tone was calm, but Su Zhenguo knew these plans were achievable. The supermarket industry, a lucrative sector, would soon attract others. A brutal fight for market share was imminent.
Su Zhenguo didnt mention the risks involved. He patted Su Lins shoulder, Tell me when you need help. I cant assist much with your studies, but in business, I can provide money or people.
Okay!
Father, may I ask a question?
Go ahead.
How much money do we actually have? They say were the richest in Zhongjiang, but Im not sure how much that is. Tell me.
Su Zhenguo chuckled, I havent calculated the exact assets, but the companys reserve funds are about thirty to forty billion. Why, changed your mind and want money?
No just asking.
Su Lin was startled by the number Su Zhenguo revealed. Reserve funds of thirty to forty billion meant the companys market value was at least several hundred billion. This was significant even in a parallel worlds 2002, which was developing faster.
You have plenty of money, just ask if you need it.
Okay~!
Seeing Su Lin still had no intention of asking for money, Su Zhenguo shook his head. In his view, to run a chain of supermarkets, one must seize the market as quickly as possible.Follow 𝒏ew stories at n𝒐velbin(.)com
The supermarket wasnt like his construction company, which could expand out of the province quickly and aggressively. All these expansions required money.
If Su Lin needed it, two billion would be enough to cover Jiangnan, and it wouldnt take long to expand beyond the province. Unfortunately, Su Lin didnt want it. In Su Zhenguos eyes, Su Lin had already done exceptionally well, especially for a high school senior.
Little did he know, Su Lin didnt care much about the future of the supermarket. He had all the designs for the IPhone, a company worth tens of trillions.
In his past life, Apple achieved a market value of tens of trillions by selling phones. So compared to that, the development speed of the supermarket wasnt that important.
Su Lin planned to hand over the company to Chenyang after college and let Lin Xiaowan and Xia Shiyu step out, one to make phones and the other to work in the internet industry. And he would be the man behind them!
The next day, Su Zhenguo personally drove Su Lin to the examination venue in a Rolls-Royce. Interestingly, when parking, Su Zhenguo happened to meet Linn Guoqiang, who was also bringing Lin Xiaowan for the exam.
Seeing Su Zhenguo, Lin Guoqiang snorted coldly and ignored him. Su Zhenguo, knowing Lin Guoqiang was a complete daughter-slave and considering that Su Lin and Lin Xiaowan were close and might even become family, just laughed it off.
Su Lin, dont mind my dad. Hes just like that, Lin Xiaowan said, noticing Lin Guoqiang talking with Su Zhenguo.
Su Lin nodded, I didnt expect your dad to bring you to the exam today.
Your dad is also here, isnt he? Even if my dad doesnt pay much attention to me, he still comes home often.
Heh, my dads work is even more demanding, so I understand.
Understand it or not, he left you alone in that cold villa. Arent you angry?
Angry? Why should I be? Xiaowan, you dont understand. Although I live in a cold villa, having you and Xiaoyu, I am content.
Thinking of how many people in the world cant even fill their stomachs, Su Lin felt he was already too fortunate. Many would envy his life.
Alright, its about time. Lets go in.
Okay~!!
As Lin Xiaowan and Su Lin entered the school, intimately close to each other, Lin Guoqiang couldnt help but express his displeasure to Su Zhenguo, You should control your son. Hes only eighteen and not focusing on his studies, always around my daughter.
Su Zhenguo shrugged, Hes grown up, hard to control. Plus, hes the top first student in school. Why think about studying all the time? That would turn him into a fool.
Linn Guoqiang:
Hmph, dont expect to get any land from me in next years allocation, Lin Guoqiang said petulantly.
Su Zhenguo replied indifferently, If you dont want to develop Zhongjiang, dont give it to me. I dont mind. Anyway, my focus wont be in Zhongjiang anymore.
