Reborn in 1985: From Selling Braised Duck to Becoming the World's Richest Man

"Your brother wants to see me?"

Liang Ming was taken aback when he heard Jiang Meizhuang's words.

It wasn't that he was afraid to see his brother-in-law, he just didn't expect it to happen so suddenly.

"What, you don't want to see my family?"

Jiang Meizhuang raised an eyebrow and said in an unfriendly tone.

Liang Ming's neck tightened, and he said seriously, "What nonsense! The fact that you're taking me to meet your family shows that you approve of me. I couldn't be happier."

Hearing Liang Ming's answer, Jiang Meizhuang finally showed a satisfied expression and said:

"You know how to talk. Come on in, my older brother is waiting for you in the private room."

"Uh, my brother-in-law has already arrived?" Liang Ming's lips twitched slightly.

He thought Jiang Meizhuang's older brother had only arranged a meeting time, but he didn't expect him to already be waiting at the restaurant.

He was completely unprepared. If he left a bad impression on his brother-in-law, he would suffer greatly if he wanted to marry Jiang Meizhuang in the future.

Jiang Meizhuang didn't give Liang Ming a chance to talk nonsense. She directly pulled Liang Ming into a private room at Xiangmanlou Restaurant.

"Brother, I've brought the person to you."

Jiang Meizhuang, holding Liang Ming's hand, addressed a man in his thirties wearing a jacket inside the private room.

The man slowly raised his head, and when he saw Jiang Meizhuang holding Liang Ming's hand, his brows immediately furrowed: "Let go of his hand!"

Upon hearing her elder brother's words, Jiang Meizhuang quickly let go of his hand, stuck out her tongue at Liang Ming, and gave him a "good luck" look.

Seeing Jiang Meizhuang's expression, Liang Ming could only manage a wry smile.

"You're Liang Ming?" The man looked Liang Ming up and down and said in a calm tone.

"Big brother, I am Liang Ming." Liang Ming stood in front of the man and said politely.

"When did you start coveting my sister?" the man asked in a deep voice.

"Brother, what do you mean by 'coveting'? That sounds so awful. Liang Ming and I are in a free-love relationship."

Hearing her elder brother's words, Jiang Meizhuang, who was standing nearby, quickly spoke up.

"I didn't ask you to answer, I told him to answer." The man glared at Jiang Meizhuang and said irritably.

"I haven't told Dad about your situation yet. If he finds out, you're finished."

Hearing her elder brother's words, Jiang Meizhuang gave an awkward smile.

The man turned his head again and looked at Liang Ming.

Noticing the man's gaze, Liang Ming didn't hesitate for a moment and expressed his feelings:

"Brother, I truly love Meizhuang and I want to marry her. Once I've amassed enough wealth, I will personally propose marriage and give her a grand and dignified wedding!"

At this point, it would be wrong to answer when you fell in love with Jiang Meizhuang.

The right approach is to nod and make a commitment.

"Who said I was going to marry you..."

Hearing Liang Ming's words, Jiang Meizhuang blushed slightly and said...

Sure enough, the man's expression softened upon hearing Liang Ming's words.

But he still asked in a deep voice, "Have you earned enough wealth? How much do you think is enough?"

"Are you suggesting I make my sister wait for you for ten or eight years?"

"One million. Once I have a net worth of over a million, I will ask Meizhuang for her hand in marriage."

Liang Ming said with a serious expression.

Finally, he added, "My net worth is almost 20 billion now..."

Upon hearing this, the man's face showed a slight change in expression.

He hadn't expected that this young man would have some business acumen.

Keep in mind that this was the mid-1980s, and having 10,000 yuan was considered a sign of wealth by ordinary people.

But he was still not satisfied, saying, "The difference between 20 and 100 million is not small."

Jiang Meizhuang, who was standing nearby, quickly said, "Brother, Liang Ming has only been in business for a little over a month!"

"Earned 20 in just over a month?"

Upon hearing this, the man's gaze towards Liang Ming immediately changed.

This isn't just a bit of business talent; it's downright business genius.

"I didn't expect you to be so good at making money," the man said.

"Just lucky," Liang Ming said modestly.

"Perfect timing. I have a problem here. If you can help me solve it, I won't object to you and my sister dating."

the man said.

"Brother, just say the word! No matter what the problem is, I'll take care of it for you."

Upon hearing this, Liang Ming straightened his back and said seriously.

With the support of his future brother-in-law, his and Jiang Meizhuang's future path will be smoother.

"Let me introduce myself first. My name is Jiang Tao, and I am the mayor of Shitou Town, Taoyuan County..."

Upon hearing this, Liang Ming's face showed a look of surprise.

He never expected that Jiang Meizhuang's elder brother was actually the head of a town.

It seems that the Jiang family's background is even more profound than he imagined.

Soon, Liang Ming also learned about the problems his brother-in-law Jiang Tao was facing.

Shitou Town in Taoyuan County is an impoverished town with few notable township enterprises, and many villages within its jurisdiction are still struggling to make ends meet.

Jiang Tao has been in office in Shitou Town for two years, but he has not achieved any results.

His three-year term was about to end, and he hadn't yet achieved anything worthwhile.

Even if the elders in the family wanted to help him, they couldn't find a suitable reason.

"Brother Jiang Tao, I never expected you to be the mayor of Stone Town. I really don't know whether to say you're unlucky or what..."

Liang Ming chuckled awkwardly.

He knew something about Stone Town and knew that he couldn't blame his brother-in-law Jiang Tao for his inaction.

This Stone Town, true to its name, is surrounded by rocks, unlike other towns where one can farm, grow fruit, or develop other industries.

Jiang Tao's predecessors as town mayors were all dumbfounded when they arrived in Shitou Town.

If in another ten years or so, people's material conditions become more affluent, and they begin to pursue a spiritual life, building a villa, creating a small garden, and buying some strange rocks to decorate their homes.

Perhaps some of the rocks from Stone Town can still be sold.

Or perhaps in the early 2000s, when the country began to vigorously develop infrastructure, the stones from Stone Town could be used to build bridges and pave roads.

But now, Stone Town really has no resources left to utilize.

Hearing Liang Ming's words, Jiang Tao raised an eyebrow and said, "It seems you don't really want to be with my sister either. Then you should probably forget about dating..."

After saying that, Jiang Tao prepared to get up.

Seeing this, Liang Ming quickly stopped him and said, "No, Brother Jiang, I didn't say I wouldn't help you solve this problem."

"Can it be solved?" Jiang Tao asked doubtfully.

“It can be solved!” Liang Ming said earnestly.

"How do we solve this?" Jiang Tao then asked.

"Brother Jiang, shall we sit down and talk slowly?"

Liang Ming pointed to the chair and said.

"Brother, if you want Liang Ming to help you find a way to improve your grades, you have to give him time and talk to him slowly, right?"

Jiang Meizhuang also spoke up.

“Okay, I’ll sit down and listen carefully, but if Liang Ming’s method is not good, then it’s because you’re blindly praising his abilities.”

Jiang Tao slowly sat down and said in a deep voice:

"Don't blame your older brother for opposing you then."

When Jiang Tao learned that Jiang Meizhuang liked a young man from the countryside, his first reaction was to object.

Jiang Meizhuang always said that Liang Ming was a business genius and also had high political awareness.

She helped Wang Jiu from Taoyuan Township Police Station solve several cases.

Furthermore, she came up with the idea of ​​a "census of unemployed persons" and mentioned it to Jiang Tao.

Jiang Tao then became interested in Liang Ming.

Even the town of Stone, which he governs, was required by his superiors to carry out this activity.

If this idea really came from Liang Ming, then he really should meet Liang Ming. Maybe Liang Ming can help him achieve some success as well.

“Brother…” Jiang Meizhuang playfully shook off Jiang Tao’s hand.

Jiang Tao remained unmoved, his gaze fixed on Liang Ming.

Liang Ming also knew that the time had come to prove his worth.

"Brother Jiang Tao, I didn't know you just wanted to make some achievements to embellish your resume."

Liang Ming looked directly at Jiang Tao and said seriously:

"Or are you genuinely trying to do something for the people of Stone Town?"
