Chapter 158 - A Hundred Million Yuan Contract

 "Hello, Chief Planner Wu!" Jiang Ning greeted warmly, smiling as he hurried to the door of Villa A17.

At that moment, Wu Lianqu, the head of Huayin Planning, and Liu Shiquan, the deputy planner, were pacing anxiously at the door, briefcases in hand.

"Master Jiang, hello! We're so sorry. The company has been in endless meetings these past few days, and your contract has been delayed."

Wu Lianqu forced a smile and hurried forward, shaking Jiang Ning's hand warmly.

"It's alright. Let's go inside and talk." Jiang Ning said, opening the iron gate to Villa A17.

The three entered the villa politely.

"Master Jiang, please review this contract. If everything is in order, just sign it. It's the same as the contract you signed with 'Young Dad.'"

Wu Lianqu said, pulling the contract from his briefcase and handing it to Jiang Ning.

Huayin Platform had given Jiang Ning the most generous traffic pool, and the results had been phenomenal!

Not only had Huayin reaped enormous profits, but they had also siphoned off a significant amount of traffic from other platforms.

Now, platforms like Xia Yin were eerily quiet, having lost at least two-thirds of their traffic to the Huayin Platform.

Jiang Ning carefully reviewed the contract, confirmed everything was in order, and signed it with a flourish.

"Um, Master Jiang, when do you think you'll be able to stream again?" Wu Lianqu asked sheepishly.

"Chief Planner Wu, rest assured, I'll stream as soon as I have the time," Jiang Ning replied with a smile.

With all the trouble resolved, who would turn down such a lucrative opportunity? Of course, Jiang Ning wouldn't pass it up.

Though he already had over two billion yuan in his bank account, it was nothing compared to the wealth of those powerful families and corporate giants.

Besides, with the upcoming winery venture with Su Meng, expenses would undoubtedly be substantial. The more he earned, the better.

"Master Jiang, have you considered endorsing brands?" Wu Lianqu asked, slightly hesitant.

Many business owners from various groups were now flocking to the Huayin Platform, begging Master Jiang to endorse their brands, with endorsement fees soaring past fifty million yuan.

This was dozens of times higher than the fees paid to even the most famous celebrities! Typical endorsement fees for well-known stars were only in the hundreds of thousands.

It was clear that Jiang Ning was now a star of the highest magnitude!

The entire Great Xia Kingdom, and even international media, were reporting on his dancing. The *jia* family, in particular, could only worship his mastery of the art.

After all, no one had ever reached the level of a "dance grandmaster" before. Jiang Ning was truly the world's number one, the undisputed king of the dance world!

"I'm sorry, but I'm not interested in endorsing brands at the moment."

"Understood. Thank you for your time, Master Jiang. We'll be leaving now." Wu Lianqu carefully put away the contract and, along with his deputy planner Liu Shiquan, rose to take their leave.

Jiang Ning also stood up. "Leaving so soon?"

Wu Lianqu said helplessly, "Master Jiang, to be honest, since your live streams began, the Huayin Platform has been flooded with traffic. The entire platform is overwhelmed with information, and we need to completely reorganize. There's just too much to handle."

Jiang Ning suddenly understood. "Ah, I see. In that case, I won't keep you any longer."

Jiang Ning had already guessed as much. Many people were likely trying to dig up information about his identity, and advertisers would undoubtedly be swarming in. Huayin would be swamped for quite some time.

After seeing Wu Lianqu and Deputy Planner Liu Shiquan off, Jiang Ning didn't return to Su Meng's villa. Instead, he immediately finished brewing all the remaining raw materials.

By the time Jiang Ning got back to Su Meng's villa, it was well past five in the afternoon.

"Jiang Ning, where have you been? Why did you take so long to come back?" Su Yunlong asked anxiously, rushing forward to grab Jiang Ning's arm.

Jiang Ning looked puzzled. "Dad, I was just at the villa in Building A17. Chief Planner Wu from Huayin Platform came to sign the contract, so I met with him and signed it. What's wrong?"

Upon hearing this, Su Yunlong urgently pulled Jiang Ning toward the kitchen. "Come on, let's go to the kitchen! I'm going to watch you cook dinner this time!"

He had persuaded his wife, Liu Mengyan, to come to Su Meng's villa primarily to learn cooking from Jiang Ning. He had been busy entertaining Elder Tang at noon, but now with no one to disturb them during dinner, he didn't want to miss this rare opportunity.

At that moment, Liu Mengyan was taking Mengmeng to play in the community park. The sun was less intense during this evening hour.

Mengmeng had been studying in the villa all day and it was time for her to get some fresh air.

Liu Mengyan had wanted to take Su Yunlong along, but he refused, insisting on staying home to wait for Jiang Ning to return so they could cook dinner for her, their daughter, and granddaughter.

Liu Mengyan understood Su Yunlong's true intentions for being there and didn't press him further. She took Mengmeng out to play with the other children in the neighborhood.

The two entered the kitchen. Jiang Ning opened the refrigerator and checked the ingredients. "Dad, we had such a fancy meal for lunch. How about we switch to something simpler for dinner? Using ordinary ingredients?"

"Sounds good! Just do as you say! But Jiang Ning, when you cook, make sure to explain everything in detail!"

Su Yunlong was relentless, practically begging Jiang Ning to teach him every cooking trick in the book.

"Don't worry, Dad. I'll explain as we go."

And so, the two got busy in the kitchen.

Su Yunlong was shameless in his pursuit of knowledge, asking questions without hesitation and diving into research when he didn't understand. He was a model of diligent learning, like an eager old friend.

After Jiang Ning demonstrated a step, Su Yunlong would practice it again and again.

Jiang Ning could only stand by and patiently guide them.

The meal, which he could have prepared in ten minutes, ended up taking them nearly two hours.

Su Yunlong meticulously learned every step, from selecting the right cuts of meat to mastering knife skills, practicing repeatedly.

After dinner, Su Yunlong sat with a round belly, his face beaming with contentment.

He had eaten the most, after all—he had been the most involved in preparing the evening's dishes and felt almost entirely responsible for the meal's success.

Every dish tasted exceptionally delicious, and he felt he was getting closer and closer to becoming a culinary god.

He was confident that if he stayed here for another month or two, his cooking skills would improve dramatically, and he would definitely surprise his wife.

Truth be told, Su Yunlong had learned a great deal that evening.

He already had some basic cooking experience, and with Jiang Ning's guidance on fire control, stir-frying techniques, and seasoning, he had personally completed most of the dishes.

"Honey, Mengmeng, let's go for a walk," Su Meng said, smiling.

She naturally noticed her father's cheerful expression and knew how diligently Jiang Ning had taught him that evening.

"Yeah, yeah! Mengmeng promised to play with Tuantuan later!" Mengmeng clapped her hands excitedly.

Jiang Ning nodded and looked at Su Yunlong and Liu Mengyan. "Dad, Mom, would you like to join us for a walk?"

Liu Mengyan waved her hand. "No, you three go ahead and have fun."
