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

"Sister Meizhuang, I'm not joking, I'm serious."

Liang Ming said with a serious expression.

"I want to become a millionaire within 3 months."

I also believe I can become a millionaire.

Hearing Liang Ming's confident demeanor, Jiang Meizhuang's lips curled into a smile, and she said:

"Brother Liang Ming, if you can really become a millionaire within three months..."

"I've decided to stay with you for the rest of my life."

“Sister Meizhuang, you said it yourself, a promise is a promise.”

Upon hearing Jiang Meizhuang's words, Liang Ming's breathing became somewhat rapid, and he said.

"Yes, that's what I said."

Jiang Meizhuang smiled and said.

If Liang Ming can really earn 100 million within 3 months.

Such an outstanding man, why shouldn't I become his woman?

Leaving Xiangmanlou Restaurant, Liang Ming was full of energy on his way back.

Three months is neither a long nor a short time.

At his current rate of earning over two thousand yuan a day, he can only earn a little over one hundred thousand yuan in three months.

This amount of money isn't enough for him to have a grand and dignified proposal to Jiang Meizhuang.

"We must further expand the industrial chain and diversify to increase profits."

Liang Ming made a decision in his heart.

……

It was already past 10 a.m. when we got back to the village.

Villagers arrived at Liang's courtyard one after another, bringing over the wild vegetables, mushrooms, and bamboo shoots they had picked.

"Liang Ming, look at the wild vegetables we picked today, they're so tender and juicy!"

"Yes, and these bamboo shoots too. I spotted them as soon as they sprouted. They're at their crispest and most refreshing when eaten now."

Hearing the villagers' words, Liang Ming looked at all the mountain produce they had picked and nodded, saying:

"Yes, the quality is indeed very good."

As he spoke, he weighed all the mountain produce.

Each of the 10 households picked an extra pound or two, more or less.

Liang Ming knew this was normal; after all, when picking mountain produce, no one could guarantee that exactly 10 jin (5 catties) would be picked.

For those households whose goods exceeded the weight limit, Liang Ming paid them according to the weight.

"Liang Ming, this money..."

When they saw the amount of money, they realized that Liang Ming had given them too much, and they were about to say a few words of thanks.

Liang Ming spoke first, interrupting, "Uncles and aunts, I know it's not easy for you to make a living."

So if you pick an extra half or half a pound, I'll collect it all for you.

However, this only applies to amounts exceeding 1.5 jin (approximately 0.75 kg). If it exceeds that, I'll have to charge you based on a 10-jin (approximately 5 catties) weight.

Upon hearing this, the villagers nodded in agreement, indicating that they understood.

After the 10 households left, Jiwa, Gou Dan, Ama and the others also returned after picking mountain produce and river delicacies.

They all managed to get hundreds of kilograms, and their income was ten times that of other villagers.

"Chicken, Dog Egg, here's your 20 yuan. Mom, here's your 30 yuan for the seafood. Take it all."

Liang Ming settled the bill for the three of them while giving them instructions.

After receiving the money, the boy, beaming, couldn't help but ask:

"Brother Liang Ming, you told us before that you wanted to contract the mountain and fish pond in the village. When will you do it?"

The rest of us are all itching to get rich with you.

As soon as Chicken Baby said this, Dog Egg and Ama both turned their gazes toward Liang Ming.

Hearing what the three said, Liang Ming thought for a moment and then said:

"I will discuss this matter with the village chief."

"After all, the hills in the village belong to the village collective, and it's not an easy thing to contract them out."

Upon hearing this, the three children nodded and said nothing more.

……

Around noon, Liang Ming brought his mountain produce and river delicacies to the county town, to Liang Hei Ya's shop.

After a morning of hard work, Qin Fang and Li Cui had finished braising all 400 ducks.

Of these, 200 braised ducks are ready to be sold in the store.

"Boss Liang, take a look at the braised duck that Li Cui made for me. Does it taste good?"

Upon seeing Liang Ming arrive, Qin Fang pulled Li Cui aside and cut him two slices of duck breast.

Seeing the two pieces of braised duck meat held by the two women's fair and slender fingers, Liang Ming initially wanted to refuse.

But seeing the expectant looks in the two women's eyes, he still opened his mouth and ate it.

"Yes, the braising is very flavorful. You've already mastered the craft."

After finishing his meal, Liang Ming gave a thumbs-up and praised the two women.

Qin Fang and Li Cui both smiled after hearing this.

After appeasing the two female employees, Liang Ming left the Liang Heiya shop with 200 braised ducks.

He first delivered the mountain produce, river delicacies, and braised duck to Xiangmanlou Restaurant.

Jiang Meizhuang was quite excited when she saw that 200 jin of mountain produce and river delicacies had been delivered today.

Today, Xiangmanlou Restaurant is poised to become the premier restaurant in Taoyuan Township.

This is undoubtedly due in no small part to the contributions of these mountain and river delicacies.

After delivering the remaining 100 jin of braised duck to the Third Steel Plant, Liang Ming prepared to leave.

"Brother Liang Ming, don't go yet."

At this moment, Liu Ming, the canteen director of the steel plant, called out to him and said...

"Director Liu, is it the braised duck that doesn't taste right?"

Seeing that Liu Ming had stopped him even after the payment was settled, Liang Ming asked seriously.

"No, no, no, the braised duck still tastes just as authentic."

Liu Ming quickly explained:

"I called you because my brother-in-law wants to see you."

"Your brother-in-law?" Upon hearing this, Liang Ming immediately thought of Liu Ming's brother-in-law, who was about to be promoted to deputy factory director.

During our last meeting, I gave Liu Ming's brother-in-law some pointers on how to make a good impression regarding the location of the new steel plant.

I wonder how well he wrote this article?

Soon, Liu Ming's brother-in-law, Liang Liang, arrived.

Upon seeing Liang Ming, he smiled and quickly pulled him into his office to sit down.

"Mr. Liang, when we last met, after you mentioned that there were problems with the geology of the new factory, I had someone find a survey team to investigate, and you were right."

"Really? What happened after that?"

Upon hearing this, Liang Ming feigned curiosity and asked.

According to the events of the previous life, the collapse of the furnace in the new factory resulted in serious injuries to many people, and even the deaths of several.

After this incident, the higher-ups were furious and dismissed a number of people from their posts.

The steel plant leader in charge of the factory's construction was also sent to jail.

In this life, thanks to Liang Ming's reminder, that major accident did not occur, and the outcome would likely be very different.

"What else can be done? The guy who competed with my brother-in-law for the deputy factory director position is suspected of giving the factory construction project to his relative."

"Given the significant problems with this factory site, he has committed a serious dereliction of duty and has now been dismissed from his post and is under investigation."

"Even if he comes back later, he'll just have to hide in a corner."

Before Liang Liang could speak, Liu Ming, who was standing to the side, was the first to mock him.

When Liang Liang saw his brother-in-law interrupt him, he glared at him.

Noticing his brother-in-law's gaze, Liu Ming shrank back.

"After I investigated this matter and reported it to the factory leaders, they were very grateful to me."

Liang Liang turned his head and said to Liang Ming.

He paused for a moment, then added:

"Boss Liang, speaking of this matter, I still owe you a favor."
