148: Section 148
Since the control of this project was in Qin Feng's hands, whoever he wanted in charge had to comply.
Qin Yongchang was not originally involved in this project. The pharmaceutical factory he ran in Nanzhong City was doing reasonably well, but due to blocked sales channels and a shortage of funds, his business was on the verge of bankruptcy.
To avoid bankruptcy, he had no choice but to take a risk, betray his family, and join Qin Feng's "Huaxia Migrant Worker Breeding Base" project, hoping to use Qin Feng's power to save himself.

Previously, Qin Feng had promised to give Qin Yongchang a portion of shares to offset the investment funds he had put into the project. Now that the project was completed, Qin Feng transferred these shares to Qin Yongchang as promised, which made him ecstatic.
With the successful completion of the Huaxia Agricultural Base, Qin Feng's "Huaxia Medical Device R&D Laboratory" also officially began preparations.
Qin Feng decided to move the Huaxia Medical Device Research Institute to Yanjing City.
Because the Huaxia Medical Device Research Institute belonged to the high-tech industry sector, its influence within China was not very strong, and it had no fame internationally, so there had been no breakthrough progress in recent years.
Now, Qin Feng wanted to move it to Yanjing because he wanted to build a super hospital abroad and seek more clients on a global scale.
This project was a comprehensive medical device laboratory. In addition to professional medical staff, it would also cultivate some agents with special functions, such as anti-cancer treatment fluids, beauty serums, freckle removal creams, and so on.
Through Qin Feng's careful planning and design, this project would establish five pilot units within three years, each going into production, and every project would achieve great success.
Thus, Qin Feng's plan came to a complete conclusion.
During this period, Shen Zhenyu called him several times to ask about the preparations for his and Su Yunxi's wedding.
Qin Feng was very satisfied with the wedding. Su Yunxi, wearing a snow-white, pristine wedding dress and sitting in the church, looked just like a fairy.
The wedding was held in Beihai City, where there was an ancient castle. Although it had a long history, it was the dowry given by King George II of England to his sister Elizabeth II, and it was a sacred place for successive British royal families.
The wedding was scheduled for one week before the ceremony.
Since Shen Zhenyu was the Vice President of the Shen Group, he had to make an appearance at Qin Feng's wedding; after all, he was the future father-in-law!
At six o'clock that evening, Qin Feng and Su Yunxi arrived at the Beihai Castle by car together.
"Wow! Qin Feng, is this the legendary castle? It's so magnificent!" Su Yunxi looked at the castle in front of her, her pretty face showing a look of surprise.
"Haha, if you like it here, I will accompany you to visit often in the future." Qin Feng laughed heartily.
"Really? Thank you!" Su Yunxi smiled.
Her feelings for Qin Feng were becoming more and more complicated; there was love and hate, and even a trace of imperceptible guilt.
She knew that Qin Feng, this playboy, would get married sooner or later, and that she and he were simply not the same kind of people.
"Qin Feng, I... should I resign? Your company is so big, and as a weak woman staying here, I'm afraid I can't help you much." Su Yunxi said in a low voice.
"Yunxi! Don't say that. You are already a Vice President at my company. With your talent and hard work, you will definitely be a great help to me. Just work here with peace of mind and don't worry about anything else." Qin Feng smiled.
"But..."
"No more 'buts'. You have to trust my judgment; you will never let me down."
Su Yunxi had no choice but to temporarily accept this situation.
When the two arrived at the manor gate, they saw that Shen Zhenyu had been waiting there for a long time.
Shen Zhenyu was 40 years old this year, a standard successful businessman. He had a burly and robust build, dark skin, thick eyebrows and tiger eyes, a high-bridged nose, and lips of moderate thickness. The whole person was full of masculinity, giving an impression of strength.

"Little Uncle, welcome, sister-in-law!" Shen Zhenyu smiled and cupped his hands to Su Yunxi, his manner appearing very humble.
"Hello, Little Uncle!" Su Yunxi smiled sweetly and returned the salute gently.
"Niece Yunxi, why are you so thin? Your stomach trouble hasn't healed yet, has it?" Shen Zhenyu said with concern.
"Yes, I have already kicked my alcohol addiction." Su Yunxi said with a smile.
"That's good. Then I won't have to worry about you drinking too much in the future. However, you must pay attention to your diet and stop eating cold things. You are so thin; it will be very dangerous when you give birth to a Child in the future!" Shen Zhenyu said with concern.
"Mmh, I've noted it down. Thank you for your concern, Little Uncle." Su Yunxi smiled sweetly.
"Yunxi, I've told you before, call me Brother Zhenyu." Shen Zhenyu corrected her seriously.
"Got it, Brother Zhenyu!" Su Yunxi pursed her lips and smiled, looking sweet.
"Alright, let's go in! Your parents are also at tonight's banquet."
"Oh." Su Yunxi frowned slightly, a flash of sadness appearing on her face. Her relationship with her parents was average; they were just keeping up appearances.
Qin Feng and Su Yunxi arrived at the manor's banquet hall together.
It was decorated very luxuriously and elegantly, with an interior design style leaning towards European court style. Various precious rosewood tables and chairs were placed everywhere, the walls were covered with oil paintings, giant artistic calligraphy and paintings were placed in the corners, and several antique artworks were displayed on antique cultural shelves. It was practically a small museum.
In the center of the banquet hall was a round dining table covered with a red tablecloth. Beside the dining table was a set of sandalwood tables and chairs, and Shen Zhenyu was already seated at the table.
Shen Zhenyu was burly, with short-cropped hair, thick eyebrows, and star-like eyes. His eyes were bright and piercing, and his whole body emitted a strong aura of dominance and coldness, like an iron tower, which would intimidate anyone who approached him.
Opposite him sat Qin Feng's uncle-in-law and father-in-law, Shen Yuanshan. Qin Feng and Shen Yuanshan were from the same generation as brothers.
At this moment, Shen Yuanshan had graying temples, a strong body, a straight back, and sharp eyes. His body exuded a fierce aura that was awe-inspiring.
Sitting on his right was a middle-aged woman around 50 years old, who was Qin Feng's mother, Chen Caiqin. She had married into the Shen family from the countryside and had always lived with Shen Yuanshan. She was a virtuous and kind wife.
Right next to Shen Yuanshan was his eldest grandson, Shen Feiyu, who was 30 years old this year. He was the eldest son of the Shen Group chairman, Shen Zhenwei, and also the eldest legitimate son of the Shen family. He had been smart and clever since childhood and was deeply loved by Shen Yuanshan. Qin Feng had the best relationship with him.
"Hello, Uncle! Hello, Aunt!" Su Yunxi walked to the table and gracefully bowed to Shen Yuanshan and Chen Caiqin.
"Oh, Yunxi, please sit down!" Chen Caiqin quickly stood up to help Su Yunxi, pulling her to sit in the empty seat next to Qin Feng.
Chen Caiqin was a very gentle woman, but not pedantic. She clearly realized that since Su Yunxi and Qin Feng were fated to be together, she should treat this girl well, especially after seeing how outstanding Qin Feng was, which strengthened her resolve.
"Aunt, don't worry about attending to me yet, please sit down." Su Yunxi smiled sweetly and pressed Chen Caiqin back into her seat.
Chen Caiqin had no choice but to sit down obediently, gazing kindly at the beautiful and sensible Su Yunxi in front of her.
"Uncle, Aunt, since our family is gathered together today, let's not talk about work; let's talk about private matters." Qin Feng began to grandly introduce Shen Zhenyu and Chen Caiqin to his new wife, Su Yunxi: "This is my uncle, and my aunt."

Shen Zhenyu immediately nodded to Chen Caiqin, then turned to look at Su Yunxi and said with a smile: "Niece-in-law, I am Qin Feng's Little Uncle. You can just call me Little Uncle. Haha, I heard that you and Qin Feng are from the same hometown and are childhood sweethearts. I am happy for you that you found such a good husband!"
"Thank you, Little Uncle!" Su Yunxi said sweetly.
"Alright, let's eat." Shen Yuanshan said with a smile.
So, everyone started eating. Qin Feng picked up his chopsticks, tasted a few dishes, and couldn't help but nod and praise: "Hmm, the chef's skill is much higher than what we have at home. It seems Aunt's cooking is quite good!"
"Hehe, of course. Your Aunt is a Sichuan gourmet, and I am quite famous in the capital." Chen Caiqin said triumphantly.
"Oh, that amazing?" Qin Feng asked in surprise.
"Of course! I once participated in a food festival held by the Guangdong International Culinary Association. The winners were all famous chefs across the country, and I became famous because of it."
"Wow, that's really amazing!" Qin Feng gave a thumbs up. Although he didn't know much about cooking techniques, he had heard about gourmet food. As far as he knew, the Guangdong International Culinary Association's weekly food festival invited world-class master chefs. The judging panel for the participants was also composed of professional culinary teams. Each food festival had no more than 500 participants and was composed of famous chefs in the culinary world such as the Culinary King Liu Yunfeng, Culinary Emperor Luo Songlin, and Culinary God Du Haitao. It was a top-tier culinary association in the world. Those who could be invited to participate in the association were fans of delicious food, and they had to be capable gourmets.
"Haha, Sister-in-law, you are not just a simple chef. Your medical attainments are probably no less than the most famous imperial chefs in the country. With just these skills of yours, it would be enough to open a beauty salon or a garment factory in Yanjing City." Qin Feng laughed.
"Yunxi, your skills are indeed good. I am eating this meal very comfortably." Shen Yuanshan said with a smile, a trace of relief appearing in his eyes. He had been observing Qin Feng these days and felt that Qin Feng had a steady personality and business acumen, and would definitely inherit the Shen family's business in the future.
Qin Feng and Su Yunxi exchanged glances, feeling secretly happy. Their father's reaction to their marriage was very good, which proved that the father and son had reached a consensus.
"Dad, on such an important day, didn't you prepare a gift for your nephew?" Qin Feng teased Shen Yuanshan with a smile.
"What gift?" Shen Zhenyu asked in confusion.
"Hehe, Little Uncle, we are getting married, aren't you going to give us some New Year money?" Qin Feng said with a smile.
"Hehe, you brat, still thinking about New Year money? Alright, Little Uncle promises you, I'll give you 2 million!" Shen Zhenyu said readily.
"Thank you, Little Uncle." Qin Feng quickly picked up his wine glass and said respectfully: "I propose, let's have a drink together!"
"Good!" Shen Yuanshan picked up his wine glass.
The three clinked their glasses gently and drank them down in one gulp.
At this time, Chen Caiqin spoke: "Qin Feng, your Aunt just returned from the United States. She is travel-weary and needs to rest. Tonight, you take your wife to the hotel to rest!"
"Mom." Qin Feng's face turned red upon hearing this, and he muttered in a low voice.
"What? Do you dislike your Aunt?" Chen Caiqin asked with her eyebrows tightly locked.

"No." Qin Feng shook his head awkwardly and stole a glance at Su Yunxi beside him.
Su Yunxi's pretty face blushed, and she shyly lowered her head, saying coquettishly: "Aunt, I'm not tired."
"Yunxi, you just returned to the country, and your physical condition is not very good. Don't force yourself. Come find me to play another day." Chen Caiqin smiled.
"Alright then, I will listen to Aunt's arrangements." Su Yunxi nodded and said, then took out a checkbook, wrote down 200,000, and handed it to Qin Feng.
"Yunxi, what are you doing? These funds aren't needed." Qin Feng waved his hand and said.
"You helped me so much, I have to express my gratitude!" Su Yunxi said, her beautiful eyes brimming with affection and infinite charm.
"This... I helped you because I wanted to. We don't need to be so polite between us." Qin Feng smiled faintly.
"Shen Yi, you young people chat; we won't interfere." Chen Caiqin saw that Qin Feng and Su Yunxi were affectionate and didn't want to disturb them, so she stood up and said: "Yunxi, let's go!"
"Aunt, I'll see you downstairs." Su Yunxi quickly followed Chen Caiqin downstairs.
"Yunxi, how old are you this year?" Qin Feng asked with concern.
"21!" Su Yunxi said with a smile.
