The supermarket was entirely registered under Su Daqiang's name and handed over to him for management.
As a money-grubber who had been controlled by others his whole life, Su Daqiang loved making money and even more so the feeling of controlling others.
Li Mu granted his request, opening a shop where all the profits would be his. Even if he didn't make any money, Li Mu would secretly subsidize him to make it appear as if he were earning money.
Hire a dozen more shop assistants for him, who will usually follow his instructions, so he can enjoy the feeling of managing others.
Su Daqiang wouldn't refuse such a good thing.
……
Li Mu has already made arrangements regarding Su Daqiang's life in China.
Some time ago, he found someone to buy back the house that Zhu Li and Su Mingcheng had sold, and in the same community, he spent more than six million yuan to buy a large three-bedroom house, renovated it, and made it Su Daqiang's future residence.
He and Wu Fei spend most of their time abroad. Mingyu, as the newly appointed president of Olkus Asia Pacific, is very busy and needs to travel to various countries frequently.
They didn't have much time to pay attention to Su Daqiang.
Mingcheng and Zhuli, on the other hand, are more filial and responsible, and they care about Su Daqiang.
They were allowed to live in the same neighborhood. Su Daqiang had a nanny to take care of his daily life, and Mingcheng and Zhuli would often go over to visit and keep him company. It was both easy and convenient.
This arrangement is good for all parties.
After all, Su's mother favored her youngest son so much back then, perhaps because she also had the idea of relying on him to support her in her old age.
The eldest son is abroad and can't be relied on, and the youngest daughter has cut ties with the family and can't be relied on either. Only Mingcheng is by her side; if she doesn't expect him to support her in her old age, who else can she rely on?
In retrospect, it seems that Su's mother had foresight; things have come full circle and returned to where they started.
……
Mingcheng's sentence was reduced by two months due to his good behavior, and he was released after ten months. After undergoing reformation in prison, he had indeed changed a lot.
He has become much more composed and mature, and his actions and perspectives are no longer so naive and impulsive.
When he learned that Julie had sold the house, he looked a little disappointed, but he quickly recovered and expressed his support for Julie's decision, saying that he would rely on his own hard work in the future.
Li Mu smiled and said, "Julie, it's a good thing that Mingcheng is being released from prison today. I'm also very happy that he has changed so much. Here's a small gift for you."
As he spoke, he took out a set of keys and a contract and handed them over.
Julie paused for a moment before taking it.
"Brother, this is..."
Li Mu said, "You sold your house, but I had it bought back recently. I'm giving it to you two as a token of my appreciation. Live a good life from now on."
Mingcheng and Zhuli were touched and quickly declined, saying, "Brother, this is too precious, we can't accept it."
Li Mu smiled and said, "Don't be in such a hurry to refuse. There are still things to do. I'll have to trouble you."
“I bought a large three-bedroom apartment in your neighborhood and hired a nanny to let Dad move in. Mingyu and I are too busy to take care of Dad, so we will have to rely on you to look after him in the future.”
"If you feel bad about taking the house, please take care of my dad for a while. It's my way of showing my filial piety."
……
Mingcheng and Zhuli declined several times, but Li Mu insisted and they accepted.
After the matter was settled, Mingcheng and Zhuli were overjoyed. They had their house back, their mortgage was gone, Zhuli's income was higher, and they could continue to live their happy and warm life together.
Although Su Daqiang kept saying he wanted to go back to China, he was actually a little reluctant when it came to the reality of it.
However, when Li Mu took him to a large supermarket with an area of 500 square meters and told him that it was opened especially for him, Su Daqiang was overjoyed and at a loss, but then fell into a state of great happiness.
Knowing that all the money the supermarket earned belonged to him, and that the supermarket's more than 30 employees were all under his command, made Su Daqiang even more excited.
Having spent half his life struggling financially and being controlled by others, Su Daqiang's greatest wish in life is to make money, manage others, pontificate, and be full of vigor.
Now that his life's dream has come true, and he's ready to show his skills, what could possibly be more satisfying?
After that, Su Daqiang devoted all his energy to running the supermarket, counting money every day and managing dozens of people. He was living a very comfortable and happy life.
……
A month later, Olkus finally secured a new round of financing, with investors including Goldman Sachs, Redstone, CICC, and Shenzhen Capital Group…
Olkus raised $880 million by offering 16% of its equity, which was then split equally among several investors.
Olkus's valuation reached $5.5 billion, making it one of the world's top three metaverse concept technology companies.
Su Daqiang seemed to have found his purpose and meaning in life, managing the supermarket from top to bottom every day, and his personality became much more stable.
He used to be timid and hesitant, always trying to avoid problems. But now that he's his own boss, he's gradually learned to take responsibility and has become more assertive, which is very gratifying.
……
After his release from prison, Su Mingcheng became much more stable and mature. As a partner in the city's largest accounting firm, Zhu Li gradually built her own network and influence. Despite Su Mingcheng's less-than-stellar resume, she managed to get him a job at a large foreign trade company in the city.
Su Mingcheng lived up to expectations, worked diligently, and performed very well.
The young couple is living a very fulfilling life, even more so than before. However, it seems unlikely that the power dynamic in the family, where the man is weaker and the woman is stronger, will change.
With Julie keeping an eye on Su Mingcheng and correcting him at any time, Li Mu felt at ease.
Su Mingyu, who took office as President of Olkus Asia Pacific, has fully demonstrated her strong and capable side, and the business in the Asia Pacific region is thriving under her leadership.
Today, Su Mingyu is well-known not only in Suzhou but also in China's technology circle, with many people even calling her the second Dong Mingzhu.
As for his love life, things haven't progressed much with Shi Tiandong, and Li Mu doesn't plan to interfere.
She's an adult, rational enough, and responsible for her own feelings.
……
And so, without realizing it, he has been in the world of "All Is Well" for two years. In these two years, he has experienced a lot and learned a lot.
Now that the time has come and the mission is complete, it's time to return.
That night, Li Mu and Wu Fei were intimate for a long time. He watched as she fell asleep, her face flushed and her expression exhausted.
With some lingering attachment and reluctance, I ultimately chose to return.
Chapter 34 Reward
Li Mu opened his eyes, his mind slightly blank for a moment before he realized he was back in reality.
I looked around the somewhat old bedroom. This was an old neighborhood built in the 1990s. Although it was a bit old, it was cheap!
Li Mu rents a one-bedroom apartment for only 1,100 yuan per month.
In the provincial capital, a commercial hub, it's rare to find a one-bedroom apartment like this at this price and in this location. So what if it's a bit old and run-down?
"Young people benefit from experiencing some hardship." This quote is from Lu Xun. (Lu Xun: I didn't say that, it wasn't me!)
Imagine someone in "All Is Well" who is incredibly wealthy and spends money like water, but in reality, he's just a young man who's been through the wringer of society and has only recently graduated. He's struggling to buy a car, a house, and get married.
The difference is quite significant!
Fortunately, he has a peaceful personality and not that much ambition, so he quickly accepted reality.
Moreover, according to the system's explanation, his appearance has changed the trajectory of the film and television world, creating a new timeline.
After he leaves, this timeline will almost stand still. Just like when he entered the film and television world for two years, time in the real world also almost stopped, passing extremely slowly.
The underlying principles may require explanation from physicists.
If he has the opportunity to return to this world in the future, he can continue this timeline and live there again.
After reflecting on it for a while, he gradually let go of his longing and lingering feelings for Wu Fei, since there would be opportunities to meet again in the future.
After sorting through the information in his mind, he discovered another problem: he only remembered what happened in the two years in the "All Is Well" world; all of Su Mingzhe's memories from before were gone.
Come to think of it, this is normal. After all, it's not his own memory; the two years he actually experienced are his. If they're gone, they're gone.
The only thing that Li Mu regretted was that Su Mingzhe's impressive computer knowledge was also lost due to his memory loss.
Even though he has learned some relevant knowledge at work over the past two years, without the accumulation of knowledge Su Mingzhe had accumulated over the previous decade or so, he is like a tree without roots or water without a source.
I know what it is, but not why it is, and suddenly I don't understand it.
While he was still in a daze, the system voice sounded: [Congratulations on completing the mission. Return to the main world.]
[Task Performance: Excellent!]
[Task rewards are being calculated.]
[System: Select two items from the following options as mission rewards.]
I. Su Mingzhe's Computer Knowledge
Part Two: Su Mingzhe's Culinary Skills
III. Su Mingzhe's English Proficiency
[IV. Physical Fitness Rewards] (The results of two years of training in the film and television world, partially projected into the real world...)
[V. Monetary Rewards] (Wealth from the film and television world, a very small portion of which can be converted into real-world currency.)
Looking at the five rewards, Li Mu was immediately excited; the trip hadn't been in vain.
Even though it's only a choice of two out of five, I'm already overjoyed.
The second option is a no-go. Su Mingzhe's cooking skills are mediocre; he only knows some simple Western dishes, so he's not very useful.
