Chapter 164: Chamber of Commerce?

Candy, with a candy in her mouth, snorted softly before picking up the bread from the ground and walking toward Bun, who was shivering in the corner.

No wonder Bun was scared; he was quite aware of his family status.

Candy is greater than Bun, who is greater than the human servant.

It scared the cat; Candy actually cried out of anger just now.

"Eat this."

Candy pushed the bread to Bun’s mouth, pursing her lips, and said:

"Don’t do this again, okay?"

"Otherwise, if Guoguo gets angry, brother won’t want Bun anymore."

Watching Candy and Bun reconcile, Zhou Yaling shrugged helplessly and returned to the reception desk.

When Mo Jingchun went downstairs after work to invite Candy to dinner, he was surprised to find that usually domineering Bun was actually wilted today.

"Candy."

"Eh?"

"Let’s go eat."

"Coming, coming～"

From a distance, Candy was bouncing over on her little legs, excitedly running towards him.

"Brother, what are we having for dinner?"

"Guoguo still wants to eat food cooked by brother and sister."

In the sunset, Mo Jingchun held Candy’s small hand, the two of them walking through the park.

Under the sunset glow, their shadows stretched very long.

"Once we move into the new house, brother will cook delicious food for Guoguo, okay?"

"Hmm～ okay then!"

"Brother, let’s pinky promise."

In the sunset, Mo Jingchun smiled slightly and said softly:

"Alright, let’s pinky promise."

"Pinky promise, hang oneself, not allowed to change for a hundred years."

"If anyone breaks it, they’ll be a puppy."

Candy giggled and bounced around, laughing out loud:

"Hahaha."

"Pinky promise, hang oneself, not allowed to change for a hundred years. Whoever changes will be a puppy."

"Brother, remember to keep your word."

Looking at the lively and adorable Candy, Mo Jingchun’s lips curled into a slight smile.

"Of course!"

Like everyone else, Mo Jingchun used to take his own food; there wasn’t any special treatment.

At most, the amount of food Mo Jingchun took might just be a bit more than others.

When Candy received the yogurt, she shook her head with a grin and said, "Thank you, Auntie."

"No need to thank me."

The yogurt was bought with Mo Jingchun’s money, and for others, eating something from their own house doesn’t require thanks.

"Let’s go, let’s find a table."

"Okay."

Over three consecutive days, after Mo Jingchun went to the hospital for three days of IV drips, his cold was completely cured.

Mo Jingchun was full of energy once again.

In Mo Jingchun’s office, Su Wenyan was reporting on the selection of sites and budget costs for the production of nearsighted lenses and eyeglass production lines.

Looking at the plant construction areas recommended by the county, Mo Jingchun opened the satellite map of the surrounding area on his computer and frowned.

Placing the plant in the town could indeed solve many people’s employment problems, but the problem is, if the plant is truly placed in this location surrounded by mountains on three sides, once a mountain flood breaks out, there would be mudslides.

If the plant is damaged, it’s just damaged, but if it happens when workers are on-site, the consequences are unimaginable.

To put it bluntly, if it isn’t handled well, Candy Technology can forget about surviving in Huo County.

Even if they leave, with such a stigma, Candy Technology wouldn’t prosper anywhere.

Don’t say that there hasn’t been any mudslides for so many years; being a native of Huo County, I’m very aware that in Dabie Mountain, praised as a natural reservoir, any mountaintop could have a mudslide during heavy rains.

The more Mo Jingchun thought about it, the more he felt that the factory couldn’t be built in this town surrounded by mountains.

Rather than taking the risk, it would be better to buy some buses and regularly transport workers between the factory and the town.

Mo Jingchun considers himself not a risk-taker.

After realizing all this, Mo Jingchun tapped the documents on the table, looked sternly at Su Wenyan, and asked:

"Have you thought about it, if any of these three mountains has a mudslide during heavy rain, the consequences would be unimaginable."

"Not to mention the mudslide, do you know that we are actually on one of the five major earthquake zones in China?"

"It’s also the only one that hasn’t had a major earthquake yet."

"That’s one of the main reasons the construction costs of the park far exceeded the budget by thirty million. Because, per my request, all buildings have enhanced earthquake-resistant measures."

After sitting down, Mo Jingchun pondered for a while.

"This time, let it go, as you haven’t stayed in the mountains and have no experience. Next time, be more cautious."

"As for why the county recommended this site, I don’t know."

"Why don’t you respond to the county’s leaders by saying that the place is good, but given the high humidity resistance requirement during the production process of the new product, it’s not quite suitable."

With her face turning red from being chastised by Mo Jingchun, Su Wenyan nodded.

"There’s no rush for the factory location, take your time to find a place, and it doesn’t necessarily have to be limited to Huo County."

"For this, you can ask Li Wanning for advice; she’s more experienced than you."

"Okay, boss."

After exiting Mo Jingchun’s office, Su Wenyan took a deep breath.

Meanwhile, after Su Wenyan left, Mo Jingchun in the office also fell into deep thought.

After a long time, Mo Jingchun sighed and muttered to himself: "Indeed, wherever there are people, there are complexities."

"You can’t escape it anywhere you go."

"Really not fond of this calculated feeling."

If Mo Jingchun can see that building the factory there is unsuitable, others can too.

Moreover, the factory will inevitably be targeted by illegal elements in the future, and being surrounded by mountains on three sides only provides convenience for them.

"Forget it, we’ll cross that bridge when we come to it."

"Brother, here!"

Candy stuffed a small bun into Mo Jingchun’s mouth.

"Brother, isn’t it delicious?"

Before he tasted its flavor, Mo Jingchun swallowed the small bun and nodded in agreement:

"Delicious."

"Delicious, right? Here." Candy used her small hand to grab a handful of small buns and handed them to Mo Jingchun’s big hand.

Just then, there was a knock on the office door.

Knock knock knock～

Mo Jingchun and Candy turned their heads toward the door simultaneously.

"It’s Old Xu, come in."

Mo Jingchun saw Xu Pengfei handing over a red invitation with a frown on his face.

Upon receiving the red invitation, Mo Jingchun asked Xu Pengfei in surprise:

"What is it that’s making you frown like this?"

"It’s an invitation to the county’s business association gathering."

Mo Jingchun exclaimed in surprise: "Association?"

"Yes!"

"Regarding the business association, I’m really not sure."

Business associations typically offer entrepreneurs a sense of belonging and a platform for networking.

Under the same roof, everyone would naturally prioritize supporting each other, offering encouragement, and sharing information.

Aside from that, there might be charity events to attend as well.

Looking at the festive invitation, Mo Jingchun’s mind was flooded with thoughts.

No one knows what crossed Mo Jingchun’s mind during that short time.

Mo Jingchun looked up to Xu Pengfei, appeared calm, and acted as if nothing unusual had occurred.
