Chapter Nine, Big Business (Part One)

As for the identity of the deceased and the background of the murderer, Yang Shouwen was somewhat curious

However, at this moment, Yang Rui no longer had the mood to concern himself with the attitude of the young lady.

How about this, my brother, we can join forces, and I will give you a 10% profit... To be honest, if you weren't my brother, I wouldn't even bother with you. No matter what you have done in the past, as the saying goes, one cannot write two 'Yang' characters with a single stroke; we are ultimately family. That small amount of money can be recovered with tenfold or even a hundredfold profit in the future. Think about it carefully, doesn't this make sense?

Oh, this kid is quite alert

Yang left home with the young maid, and the house appeared very quiet

If there is no recovery, how could one possibly know the benefits of Kong Fang Xiong

Yang Shouwen saw through Yang Rui's true nature at a glance, and a cold smile appeared in his heart, yet he maintained an air of indifference on his face. He waved his hand, displaying a look of disdain, and said: "Why ask so many questions? You have no money anyway, even if I tell you, you wouldn't be able to do it... Forget it, I'll think of another way."

Yang Chenglie, as the county magistrate, wields significant power

This guy must have more than a few strings of cash on him

Home is of great importance to Yang Shouwen. During his aimless days, his grandfather Yang Dafang continuously instilled in him the significance of home. At that time, Yang Shouwen may not have understood. However, over time, this constant teaching, even after he gained a mature mindset, still profoundly influenced him, as the concepts accumulated over seventeen years left a lasting impact.

Er Lang, if you have money, please lend me a few strings of cash

Of course, of course, why would I deceive you

Yang Shouwen let out a cold laugh in his heart, yet he appeared completely unconcerned. He was not surprised that Yang Rui had a small stash of money.

This fellow is a money fanatic

Yang Shouwen guessed correctly; Yang Rui is indeed a money lover

Such a position inevitably involves some gray income from welcoming and sending off guests

Yang Shouwen squinted his eyes, watching Yang Rui with caution

I have no money

However, if... I might be able to come up with an idea. I just don't know what approach you, elder brother, are considering, and how much money is needed

What nonsense, why would I deceive you

Brother, why do you wear a troubled expression

Since Yang Shouwen regained consciousness, he has appeared just as he did during his dazed state, exhibiting an air of indifference and tranquility. This has led Yang Chenglie to doubt whether Yang Shouwen has truly recovered. If he has indeed recovered, how could he possibly be this way?

Invention and creation ... . ... Such things require capital to support them. If Edison had not received loans from banks and funding from tycoons, with his limited wealth, he would not have been able to invent the light bulb. In short, for the sake of money, one can even play the fool.

If the amount required by the elder brother is too large, the younger brother may not be able to assist

Therefore, he will not confront Yang Chenglie head-on.

Brother, I will go back to get the money right away and will definitely return before dark

Yang Chenglie looked at Yang Shouwen in surprise, and after a moment, he suddenly smiled

Yang Shouwen let out a cold laugh, but his expression changed to a different one.

What are the ways to make money

Just as Yang Shouwen was deep in thought, Yang Rui emerged from the bedroom. Upon seeing Yang Shouwen, he first felt a wave of panic, and then cautiously approached him.

Although Yang Chenglie was the magistrate of Changping County, he did not exploit the common people due to his character. To put it plainly, the Yang family was not wealthy in Changping; apart from Yang Chenglie's income, there was only the additional income from the two hundred mu of official land.

Upon hearing Yang Shouwen's words, he could not help but feel a surge of passion.

Yang Shouwen wrapped his arms around Yang Rui's neck and began to murmur softly

He is the attendant by Yang Chenglie's side, responsible for handling various trivial matters, and naturally, there are those who admire him

At that moment, the young girl walked in from outside and, upon seeing the sight of brothers Yang Shouwen with their arms around each other's shoulders, her little face immediately fell, revealing her displeasure

Yang Chenglie finally believes that Yang Shouwen has recovered

He hurriedly called out, tugging at Yang Shouwen's sleeve, "Elder brother, let's talk some more, just a little more... To be honest, if it's just a few coins, I can still manage to gather them with some effort. However, I am concerned about alarming Mother. If it turns out to be a total loss, she is bound to be upset. At that time, it will inevitably reach Father, and I cannot bear the consequences."

Yang Shouwen spoke eloquently, captivating Yang Ruixin's heart and spirit.

Yang Shouwen waved his hand impatiently and said: "Given your young age, you likely have no savings, so do not make a fuss here"

There is no way; even a penny can defeat a hero

Having said that, he sighed, "Unfortunately, the way I make money is highly profitable, requiring only a small initial investment, after which the financial returns will be substantial. Never mind, why am I telling you all this? I will go out for a walk; you can stay at home by yourself."

Even though Yang Shouwen was nearly fifty years old in total across two lifetimes, he still resolutely extended his wicked hand towards Yang Chenglie

After sending off Yang Chenglie, Yang Shouwen sat on the porch, deep in thought about one question: how to make money

He hopes even more that his mother can be supported in standing upright. However, if his mother were to find out about the things he has done, it would undoubtedly make her angry

He has already come to understand that the awakened Yang Shouwen is no longer someone who can be dealt with using his previous clever tricks

Yang Rui immediately became alert, instinctively taking a step back, with one hand unconsciously resting on the shoulder bag at his waist

Yang Rui's mother comes from a humble background and the family has little savings

At last, he finally gritted his teeth and took out several strings of copper coins from the pouch at his waist, whispering: "I only have five hundred wen on me, but there are some savings at home. Big brother, this is all my savings, so you must not deceive me."

If Erlang can truly bring it out, I can guarantee that you will earn a fortune.

During the Tang Dynasty, the county magistrate was responsible for various departments, collecting taxes and managing assignments. The complexity of their duties was far beyond what later public security directors could compare to. In addition to apprehending thieves and investigating cases, the county magistrate also had to participate in sacrificial rites, holding a status that was quite extraordinary.

Speaking of which, Yang Rui's nature is not bad

He wants to improve his quality of life and enhance his living standards; which of these does not require spending money

He is well aware that he is a son of a concubine and that he will inevitably encounter troubles in the future

... ...

In the eyes of the little money-lover, a glimmer of gold has already begun to emerge

For Yang Shouwen, two hundred wen seems to be insufficient

It is now good

If Yang Shouwen is truly enraged, he will undoubtedly turn against him and give him a severe beating, showing no mercy whatsoever... Even if Yang Chenglie stands up for him at that time, will Yang Shouwen be afraid? He might just endure a beating and then turn around to deal with Yang Rui.

Elder brother, please hold on a moment.

He took out two strings of Kaiyuan Tongbao from his pocket. Don't get me wrong, two strings of Kaiyuan Tongbao do not represent two guan of money; in fact, it amounts to only two hundred wen. However, do not underestimate this amount, as it is worth noting that a clerk in the yamen earns only about two hundred wen a month.

It is only natural for a son to ask his father for money

Yang Rui wore a constipated expression, while a hint of hope flickered in his eyes

Yesterday, Yang Shouwen gave me a severe beating, which truly frightened Yang Rui

Yang Rui felt that it was necessary for him to establish a good relationship with Yang Shouwen

Yang Shouwen raised his head, his eyes brightening, "Er Lang, do you have money?"

Yang Chenglie stated that he should not interfere in the case. Yang Shouwen also did not wish to confront Yang Chenglie over a matter that had no relation to him. However, a person has died; in this day and age, is death really that surprising?

Yang Ruicong is indeed just a thirteen-year-old child

Is there really a profit to be made

Will you poke it into your father's ear

However, all of this must be based on the premise that it will not damage the relationship between him and Yang Chenglie and his son

On Yang Rui's tender little face, a look of entanglement once again emerged

Yang Shouwen practiced martial arts with his grandfather from a young age and possesses immense strength

Yang Shouwen squinted his eyes and smiled, saying: "It's nothing, I just suddenly thought of a way to make money"

Go, go, the earlier you leave, the sooner you will return

Yang Chenglie may not accept it, but judging by Yang Rui's behavior as a little money-grubber, it is likely that he has received quite a few benefits

If it were not for this, how could Yang Chenglie allow Yang Rui to go and become a clothing attendant

Do you know to ask me for pocket money now

How many strings are there...

What are you doing

Yang Rui's eyes darted around, and seeing that Yang Shouwen did not wish to continue the conversation, he hurriedly stepped forward and respectfully said: "Elder brother, please do not be anxious, let us talk a bit more... To be honest, I have some savings on me, but it is not a large amount.
