Chapter 366: Picking up his daughter from school

He also obtained the five-year sales and agency rights for all the fruit produced in Gu Chen's old home orchard.

Of course, the retail part of Gu Chen's fruit store in Haicheng will remain unaffected.

He can only not open any more branches during the five-year contract period.

In the future, all the fruit in the old home orchard will be purchased by the other party, and then canned and sold.

Naturally, he had no objection to this. After all, Gu Chen was now in Sichuan.

He had no intention of expanding the business in Haicheng anyway.

Agreeing to this was just a favour.

After the deal was done, the other party proposed to invite Gu Chen to dinner at the hotel.

However, he declined on the grounds that he had to pick up his daughter from kindergarten later.

Wang Hongda was a little taken aback, but he didn't push the issue. The three of them chatted for a while.

The other party then left with Zhao Chunfa.

Gu Chen then called Tian Laosi, his brother Gu He and the village chief.

He instructed them to cooperate with Wang Hongda as soon as possible and handle all matters related to the construction of the fruit canning factory in their hometown.

After putting down the phone, Gu Chen picked up the bank card with 300,000 yuan in his hand.

He felt a sense of emotion in his heart. It was indeed wise to cooperate with Lao Zhao at the beginning, and even he had run to Sichuan City.

The other party was able to bring him new business, and the 300,000 yuan was only the first installment.

After each quarter when the fruit matures, the new purchase payments from the other party will continue to come in.

And all Gu Chen needs to do is to regularly provide a batch of Lingquan water for the orchard in his hometown.

At that time, he will let his brother Gu He run back and forth from time to time to bring it back, and he himself does not need to worry at all.

Gu Chen then looked at the time and realised that after the other party's delay, it wouldn't be long before his daughter would be getting out of school.

He reached into his pocket and put the card away, took the car keys and drove towards the kindergarten.

To be honest, the cash he had in his hands was almost gone, and the other party's delivery of 300,000 yuan had eased his immediate predicament.

However, he had no plans to continue investing.

Instead, he thought about simply using the money to open a restaurant in Sichuan City, which would also help pass the time.

After all, after these two days of experience, he suddenly realised that he was a stay-at-home dad.

During the time after his daughter's classes in the afternoon, he was almost completely idle.

In the past, when Ji Bianran stayed at home with the baby, she would usually take advantage of the time when the baby was not around to do some housework.

Or he would draw new clothing designs.

If invited, he would go to the high-end tea parties and beauty spas with the wives in the neighbourhood.

Otherwise, he would go out shopping with Zhang Xiaoru, and every day was full of activities.

However, this is not the case for Gu Chen, a full-time dad.

After all, he never drinks afternoon tea, and he has never done any beauty treatments.

Even when buying things, he makes a list in advance and buys everything in one go at the supermarket.

He is completely cut off from all the gossip and family drama.

Gu Chen can also find time to invest, but it is clear that although he earns a lot, he spends even more.

The fixed assets such as the RV, land and shops can be operated, but it will be a few years before they appreciate in value.

The money he invests now will maintain its value, but it is basically impossible to make a huge profit in the short term.

After much thought, Gu Chensi decided that it would be best to open a restaurant.

After all, he was a man with god-like culinary skills given to him by the system, so it was practically within his grasp.

Of course, the amount of money Gu Chensi could make was actually quite unimportant.

The main reason was to have something to do, so that after his daughter started school, he would not just be at home doing housework or lying down and sleeping.

After making up his mind, Gu Chensi felt a lot more relaxed.

He then called the housekeeper, Uncle Guang.

He asked him to keep an eye out for any street-level shops that had been renovated and were for sale.

He was prepared to spend the 300,000 yuan as soon as possible.

After all, in the current era, even if you bought blindly in Sichuan City, you would not lose money in the future.

The city was constantly expanding, and in the future, it would either be rebuilt or demolished, so even if it remained intact, the market price would continue to soar.

The next decade or so will be an incredibly exciting time.

The difference will be whether you make a lot of money or a little, but Gu Chen doesn't want to think about that.

With that in mind, he soon arrived at the gate of the Little Sun Kindergarten.

Gu Chen leaned against the car door and waited for his daughter to get out of school.

Not long after, a loud bell rang in the kindergarten, and many children who were previously in class

ran out with smiles on their faces, saying goodbye to their teachers.

while throwing themselves into the arms of their parents, who had been waiting outside the door for a long time.

At this time, Gu Chen couldn't help but keep looking inside the kindergarten door, trying to find his daughter's figure.

However, he soon knew that he was worrying for nothing.

Because he saw Li Chunlei holding Tang Tang's little hand, and the two of them walked out of the kindergarten classroom together.

Standing not far away, he smiled and looked at himself.

'Dad~'

a sweet child's voice rang out, and as soon as she saw Gu Chen waiting for her outside, she immediately let out a happy cry and threw herself into his arms.

'Hey, my sweet girl, Daddy's here,'

Gu Chen said with a smile,

overwhelmed with joy.

Although they had only been apart for a few hours,

seeing this cute little person in his arms again

and could not help but feel a surge of emotion and relief.

'Daddy, I missed you during the day at school,' said Tangtang, throwing herself into Gu Chen's arms and acting coquettishly.

Gu Chen could not help but smile and stroke Tangtang's little head.

'Daddy missed Tangtang a lot today too,'

he said, then his gaze fell on Li Chunlei next to him, and he added with a smile:

'Chunlei, Tangtang didn't cause you any trouble here today, did she?'

'No, Gu Chen, Sugar Plum was very well-behaved and sensible today, and she understood the kindergarten curriculum immediately.

One of the teachers even asked her a sixth-grade arithmetic problem out of curiosity.

Sugar Plum was able to answer it fluently, just like when you were a child, incredibly smart.'

Hearing Li Chunlei say this, Gu Chen also immediately felt relieved, and a smile of embarrassment appeared on her face.

'No, no, this is not my credit. It is all because of the good teaching at home by Pyan.'

After saying this, Gu Chen picked up Tang Tang and then looked at the watch on her wrist, smiling and asking.
