Da Si Nong: I really don’t want to farm

Chapter 372 Foreign Forces Come Knocking

"Is this how you interpret a fortune stick?"

Xu Jiangming was also somewhat bewildered at this moment.

The way he looked at Xu Yue seemed to be asking: Is Master Yu reliable?
Xu Jiangming also knew the Taoist priest who interpreted the divination slips.

That was Yu Suihai's apprentice.

"Why not?" Xu Yue said with a smile. "Isn't this very Taoist? Taoism believes that one's fate is in one's own hands, not in the hands of Heaven. You can decide what kind of fortune stick you want based on your own thoughts."

Xu Yue's voice wasn't loud, but everyone around him understood.

It seems to be true.

Those who cultivate the Tao do not believe in fate.

People cultivate themselves to defy fate and change their destiny.

Otherwise, what path would one cultivate?

The female tourist was clearly unhappy with the bad luck draw, and as a result, she drew the bad luck draw three times.

That's when I got scared.

If she had accepted her fate after the first time she tried, she wouldn't have tried a second or third time.

If she doesn't accept her fate, then it's not a big deal that the Taoist priest who interprets the divination sticks is trying to defy fate and change her destiny, is it?
"Let's go!"

Xu Yue smiled and said something to Xu Jiangming.

The back mountain of the Taoist temple is not open to tourists.

Yu Suihai usually stays in the back and doesn't come to the front.

Unless there are special occasions that require him to host.

"Oh!"

Xu Jiangming nodded and followed.

Tourists were not allowed to enter from behind, but Xu Yue and Xu Jiangming were naturally allowed to.

The Taoist priests in the temple all knew them, so naturally no one stopped them.

After exchanging pleasantries with Yu Suihai, Xu Yue handed him a piece of paper.

"Thank you for your help, Master Yu."

Xu Yue said with a smile that the paper contained the child's birth date and time, as well as several alternative names they had chosen.

"Little things!"

Yu Suihai said with a smile.

After examining the child's birth chart, I began to analyze it using the Five Elements theory.
Xu Yue and Xu Jiangming listened attentively, but they were still completely confused.

After all, Yu Suihai also used quite a few "professional names".

Finally, Yu Suihai crossed out several unsuitable names from the various shortlisted options.

More remains.

As for which one to choose, that's not his decision.

Xu Yue and Xu Jiangming didn't stay long and soon took their leave.

As for the name, we'll have to go back and discuss it with Zhang Ruoxi before deciding.

In the end, Zhang Ruoxi made the choice.

The girl's name is Xu Wei, and the boy's name is Xu Feng.

Both children lack the element of wood in their Five Elements.

The next day, Xu Yue went to the hospital to get a birth certificate, and then took the birth certificate to the police station to register his household registration.

The place we entered was naturally Peach Blossom Village.

Zhang Ruoxi's household registration has not been transferred; it remains a Beijing household registration.

Children can also register their household registration in Yanjing.

But that's not necessary.

Getting a Beijing household registration isn't difficult, but getting into Taoyuan Village is another story.

"congratulations!"

Xu Yue ran into Yin Xue as soon as he came out of the police station.

To register a child's household registration, you naturally need to go to the Xingdong Town Police Station.

"Thank you!"

Xu Yue smiled and thanked him.

"It's for the child, just a token, to bring good luck."

Yin Xue took out two red envelopes and handed them to Xu Yue.

"Then I won't be polite."

Xu Yue accepted it with a smile, without refusing.

Many people gave red envelopes when the baby was born.

This is also a local custom.

No matter the amount, it cannot be withheld.

This is also a way to maintain relationships.

Of course, Xu Yue refused any extra money offered.

A token gesture is enough.

He is not short of money.

After exchanging a few words, Xu Yue took his leave and went back.

"She's probably going to be transferred to the district, right?"

Zhang Ruoxi asked.

They were also alumni and had a fairly good relationship when they were in school, but they don't keep in touch much now.

Yin Xue almost always came to see Xu Yue.

Of course, I came here to work together.

"Probably!" Xu Yue said. "I haven't paid much attention. However, given her background, connections, and achievements, it's only a matter of time before she's transferred to the district."

"How are things going with Wang Haolin?" Zhang Ruoxi asked with a smile. "Did she go on another blind date?"

"I don't know about that," Xu Yue said, shaking his head. "However, it seems their family is still trying to bring them together."

If the family wasn't intentionally trying to match them up, how could they have gone on two blind dates?
This is why Shen Yu and others often tease Wang Haolin about this.

It's common to go on two blind dates, but it's extremely rare to go on two blind dates with the same person.

“Wang Haolin is actually quite suitable for Yin Xue,” Zhang Ruoxi said. “Logically speaking, someone as career-oriented as Yin Xue should be quite rational about relationships.”

Dating is based on feelings, but marriage may involve weighing gains and losses.

Being with Wang Haolin would definitely be beneficial to Yin Xue's career.

Logically speaking, she shouldn't have refused.

"Who can really say for sure about matters of the heart?" Xu Yue said. "Everyone has their own destiny, and we outsiders shouldn't interfere."

Zhang Ruoxi nodded and was about to speak when Xu Wei suddenly started crying.

Then Xu Feng also started crying.

If one child cries, the other will cry too.

As soon as the child started crying, Li Xiurong went upstairs.

The main caregivers for the children are still Li Xiurong and Zhang Ruoxi.

Xu Yue can only be considered a support player.

Now that I'm familiar with it, I'm not so helpless anymore, and naturally, I'm not so tired.

Xu Yue staying home to take care of the children has little impact on the farm and the school.

He's a hands-off manager.

Half a month has passed in the blink of an eye.

Jing Guohua has arrived.

"congratulations!"

Jing Guohua smiled and handed Xu Yue two red envelopes.

One child, just right.

"Thank you!"

Xu Yue replied with a smile.

He's said this countless times over this period of time.

"I didn't expect you to actually do it."

Jing Guohua then said with some emotion.

What did we accomplish?
Naturally, the typhoon's wind direction was changed.

Before logging in, it redirected to the little red dot.

Natural disasters can actually be resolved using mystical methods.

The coastal areas of Zhejiang were largely unaffected.

"What did I do?" Xu Yue shook his head and said, "If it weren't for the precise calculations of those experts, my little tricks wouldn't have changed anything."

“Without your methods, no matter how accurate their measurements are, it’s useless.” Jing Guohua said, handing Xu Yue a file folder. “We’ve basically figured out what happened to the attack on you last time.”

Xu Yue remained silent and then opened the folder to look through it.

It not only contains information about the person who attacked them, but also about the faction they belong to.

Those four elders came from the Divine Court in Europe and America, an alliance of so-called magicians, considered one of the strongest cultivation forces in Europe and America.

The number of cultivators in the four realms is unknown, but it is likely not many.

If even one person dies at Xu Yue's hands this time, it will definitely be a heavy loss.

The middle-aged man came from the Sun God Alliance, while the middle-aged woman came from the Holy Knights, an alliance of European warriors.

The Sun God Alliance and the Holy Knights are somewhat more powerful than the Divine Court, but in Europe and America, they are definitely among the top five in terms of power.

Strong.

Xu Yue frowned slightly. Being coveted by so many powerful forces naturally made him unhappy.

Damn it, I'll call Huang Liang later and tell him to raise prices for the suppliers in Europe and America.

As for the rest?

He felt somewhat powerless.

How can we get revenge?

I don't know where to start.

Or perhaps we could find some more cultivators and then let them...
or.
The thought of the cave in Xu Yue's mind.

I felt frustrated by being held hostage by the little red dot before, and even though they raised the price, I still feel frustrated.

This time is no exception.

“After what happened to you, the higher-ups are paying special attention to the industries those forces operate in the country,” Jing Guohua said. “This time, they not only suffered personnel losses, but they probably won’t dare to target you again. However, for your safety, it’s best if you don’t go abroad. If you absolutely must go abroad, then go through diplomatic channels.”

Xu Yue nodded.

Traveling abroad in that manner should grant certain diplomatic immunity.

This is probably to prevent those forces from taking action against Xu Yue through official channels.

However, Xu Yue has no plans to go abroad.

During this time, he had no intention of leaving Taoyuan Village.

He has to stay home and take care of the children.

Will the government take action to sanction the industries of those forces?

Xu Yue wasn't too surprised.

I was still somewhat moved.

This is the country standing up for him.

Jing Guohua didn't stay long and left quickly.

He didn't take the jade talisman with him because Xu Yue hadn't had time to make one recently.

Besides, it hadn't been long since he took the jade talisman away last time.

His main purpose in coming here was simply to give Xu Yue an answer.

Who did it last time?

After Jing Guohua left, Xu Yue immediately made a phone call to Huang Liang.

Price increase!

It didn't rise too much, from 500 times the market price to 1,000 times the market price, just like the one on the little red dot.

Buy it or don't, fine, if you don't want to buy it, then forget it!
He has no trouble buying things from Taoyuan Village now.

Although the price was high, Xu Yue wasn't short of money.

Should we still buy it?
The choice is the same as the one on the red dot side.

buy!
There are probably some guesses over there as to why prices have increased.

Huang Liang naturally carried out Xu Yue's request immediately without even asking why.

However, there are also some speculations.

As for the potential harm to the interests of other shareholders?
Other shareholders probably wouldn't care, and perhaps wouldn't dare to voice their opinions.

Xu Yue rarely gets involved in the affairs of the agricultural trade company, but once he makes a phone call, he has to do it regardless of whether it's reasonable or not.

Huang Liang knew this, and so did the other shareholders.

Xu Yue was the core of the agricultural trade company.

Today, although agricultural trading companies have opened up the low-end market by using Taoyuan Farm, they still ultimately rely on the products from Taoyuan rural areas.

There are no other shareholders in Taoyuan Rural Area.

If Xu Yue is dissatisfied with the agricultural trade company, he can easily break away from them and go it alone.

Of course, given Xu Yue's personality, he obviously wouldn't do that.

He is a sentimental person.

Why did you bring in Shuxiangge and Yuelai Hotel in the first place?
Besides needing their channels, it's probably more because the two companies provided Xu Yue with tremendous help in building his fortunes.

A few days later, Huang Liang arrived at Taoyuan Village with a man.

That person was actually a martial arts cultivator at the third realm.

"Master Xu, I've heard so much about you!"

The man cupped his hands and said to Xu Yue.

Huang Liang looked surprised, but quickly recovered.

When people meet Xu Yue, they usually address him as either Boss Xu or General Manager Xu.

However, this wasn't the first time he'd heard someone address Xu Yue that way.

Is this person a cultivator?

This is because people who cultivate themselves call each other that.

As the head of one of the two companies that Xu Yue had taken over, Huang Liang naturally had some knowledge of cultivation.

"Master Ye!"

Xu Yue returned the greeting.

This man's name is Ye Zhiguo, and he came from overseas.

As for its origin, Huang Liang obviously had no idea.

"May I ask what brings you here, Master Ye?"

Xu Yue then asked a question.

"I would like to purchase some items from Taoyuan Village," Ye Zhiguo said. "However, your company's export prices are simply unsustainable, so I would like to ask Master Ye to grant me a discount out of consideration for our shared Chinese heritage. My overseas Hongmen would be eternally grateful."

Is this person a member of the overseas Hongmen?
This can be considered as introducing oneself and showing the necessary sincerity.

"Does Master Ye represent the overseas Hongmen?" Xu Yue asked. "Or does he represent a specific branch of the overseas Hongmen?"

Hongmen exist in various countries overseas. Although they share the same lineage and have connections with each other, they are not affiliated with the same group.

"I went to the Hongmen General Association."

Ye Zhiguo said with a smile, but did not say whether he could represent the entire overseas Hongmen.

Xu Yue only asked the question casually, without intending to get to the bottom of it.

"What's Master Ye's target price?" Xu Yue asked. "You know, the farm's products aren't even ready for export yet; there's still a huge gap in the domestic market."

Ye Zhiguo was naturally aware of this.

A thousand times the market price?
This clearly shows they never considered an export.

Even if those people accept the price, the quantity is still limited.

You can't have as much as you want.

Instead, it's about how much I want to sell, and how much you can buy.

This is why the agricultural company raised prices, but didn't bring up the contract.

If you bring up the contract, they can use the excuse of not being able to supply the goods.

The ball was passed to him, but Ye Zhiguo didn't know how to start the conversation.

In these kinds of situations, you either ask for an exorbitant price or you haggle on the spot.

As a result, the other party asked him to name his price.

Offering too low a price makes it seem like you're not being sincere.

If the asking price is too high, then it's his loss.

I heard that the import prices from Europe and the United States have also increased, just like in the area of ​​Little Red Dot, where they are now a thousand times the market price.

They definitely can't handle it.

"How about a hundredfold?"

After thinking it over, Ye Zhiguo lowered his target price.

After all, if the other party disagrees, there is still room for negotiation.

“Sure!” Xu Yue nodded and said, “By the way, Master Ye, have you heard of the Divine Court, the Sun God Alliance, and the Holy Knights while you were overseas?”

"Ok?"

Ye Zhiguo nodded, but looked at Xu Yue with some surprise.

"Master Xu also knows about these three forces?" Ye Zhiguo said. "The suppliers in Europe and America are actually companies under the Sun God Alliance."

Thinking about it, it's not so surprising anymore, since they've already collaborated.

However, they are a thousand times larger than my Hongmen, and the difference in kinship and distance is obvious at a glance.

"They tried to kidnap me, so we have a grudge against each other."

Xu Yue said calmly, glancing at Ye Zhiguo, only to find that he seemed unaware of the matter.

"Oh?"

Ye Zhiguo was somewhat surprised, as was Huang Liang, who was standing next to him.

No wonder the price has gone up again.

Wait, what?
Did Little Red Dot also attempt to kidnap Xu Yue?
Probably!

No wonder one dares to raise prices and the other still dares to buy.

"If your Hongmen can cause trouble for those three forces, I can lower the price for you."

Xu Yue continued.

With Ye Zhiguo's arrival, Xu Yue's pent-up resentment seemed to have found an outlet.

How much will it decrease?

Upon hearing this, Ye Zhiguo immediately became interested.

The Hongmen cooperates with foreign forces, but it is more of a competitor.

It's all too common for people to cause trouble for each other.

Moreover, Xu Yue only said "within his power".
