"Shopkeeper, your business is not worth it. It doesn't matter if he gives you fifty taels. If you sell the house, you will only make thirty or forty taels. It's a thankless effort."

The guys on the side were very puzzled. Their gambling shop could make a net profit of a hundred taels in one day.

Why bother to earn these thirty or forty taels of silver?

When the time comes to take possession of the house, thugs from the gambling house will have to be dispatched.

Not enough trouble.

"That's why I'm the boss and you're the buddy."

Shen Jiading took a sip of tea.

Said coldly.

What he wants is not fifty taels.

A person who has to mortgage his house for 200 taels can come up with taels at once?

What he wants is to increase profits by 10 taels per month.

If this man has sisters in his family, then just coax him to sell the sisters. His master runs a brothel.

Looking at this man's dignified appearance, the sister must be above average in appearance.

People who enter his gambling den have no reason to leave.

He wanted to squeeze everything out of that man.

So what if it's still on.

The paper contract had been tampered with by him a long time ago.

One day late, add 5 taels.

The man signed it without even looking at it.

He really has no brains, he has to make money, he also has to have a house and people!

Shen Jiading's eyes narrowed slightly, like the eyes of an eagle, which was scary to look at.

The waiter didn't dare to speak anymore and silently refilled his tea.

At that time, He Tian had already arrived at Wang Gui's home with the banknote.

"Brother Wang, I got the silver, two hundred taels, here it is for you."

"Hey, Brother He, you are so generous. It's amazing. Don't worry. After three months, I will give you one thousand taels. We brothers will share the blessings together. Haha." Wang Gui took the banknote and smiled. He patted He Tian on the back and said.

That night, He Tian stayed at Wang's house for dinner.

I didn't go back until it was almost dark, when I passed by Yan's Restaurant.

I found that there were still a lot of guests here.

The first floor was all occupied, and the second floor was also noisy.

Pastry shops that used to close early are still open.

I'm so envious. It would be great if this was his shop. He would definitely be able to earn dozens, or even hundreds of taels, a day.

He Tian was slightly sour.

What's the use of studying? After so many years, I haven't been as good as a merchant.

If his mother had used the money from his studies to buy him a small shop, he might have earned several thousand taels now.

Hey......

He Tian's mind was filled with fantasies about how he would spend the thousand taels he got, and he walked to the door of his house thinking about it.

"Son, where have you been? Why are you back so late?"

As soon as he entered the door, he was grabbed by Mrs. Song who was waiting in the yard.

Her eyes were anxious, as if He Tian had done something bad.

This made He Tian feel a little uneasy, fearing that his mother would find out that he had stolen the house deed.

"No, no, my son encountered some confusion in the book, so he went to a friend's house to discuss it. He stayed with his son for dinner, so he came back a little late."

His voice stuttered.

If it were daytime, you would definitely be able to see the tension on his face.

Unfortunately, it was already dark for most of the day, and there were no candles lit in the He family's yard.

So Song didn't see it.

She breathed a sigh of relief and put her hands down.

"Son, come back earlier next time, or tell your mother when you go out, so as not to worry her, go and wash up and go to bed early. Xiaoxue has already put some water for you, so don't study tonight. , you work hard, Xiaoxue's belly is up to you, you can hold her when she is pregnant, and then let her go back to her parents' home to give you the money for the scientific examination..."

Mrs. Song chatted for a long time.

He Tian's face was a little dark, and he wanted to refuse, but after all, he had taken the deed of the house, so he had a guilty conscience, so he nodded in the end.

At night, Bai Ruixue's voice was different from before, especially loud.

It was as if he was calling someone on purpose.

Before dawn, Jiao'er, with dark circles under her eyes, was outside He Tian's house, wiping the windows and deliberately bumping them to make a tinkling sound, waking up the two of them.

"You're crazy. The sun hasn't even come out yet, so you get up to work. You did it on purpose. Why haven't I seen you so diligent in the past?"

Bai Ruixue got dressed, walked to the door, pointed at Jiaoer's nose and scolded her.

She was so angry yesterday that she reported it all in one night.

Not to mention how happy I feel.

"Okay, Jiao'er is still pregnant. You go do the laundry and make breakfast. Jiao'er, stop wiping. Didn't you sleep well last night? Go back to the house and take a rest."

He Tian put on his coat and came to the door to stop the impending war.

The two of them glared at each other and left.

He Tian shook his head helplessly and went back to sleep.

At the same time in the Yan Mansion, Yan Xia had just gotten up. She washed up and had breakfast in the courtyard with Xiao Ji waiting on her.

Today she is going back to Baihua Village to plant rose seeds.

Because the restaurant was too busy and there were not enough manpower, Yan Xia had to go back alone.

So it may take three or four days to plant the seeds.

She was so busy during this period that she had no free time at all. In half a month, her daughter-in-law would give birth, and she would be even more unable to get away from her by then, so these three or four days were regarded as a short vacation.

Before Yan Xia left, he called Jinyu Xiaoji, his son, daughter-in-law, and two daughters.

After being warned one by one, he drove away with confidence.

When the carriage left the city gate, Xiao Qing, who was staying at the Chengwei Inn, also went downstairs.

She was worried that all her efforts would be in vain, so she woke up at dawn, ate a bowl of porridge and side dishes at the inn, and then left the inn and hurried towards the matchmaker's house.

There was also a bag of pastries in her hand, which she bought last night.

"Boom boom boom——"

Xiao Qing knocked on the door of Matchmaker Zhen’s house.

Not long after, the door opened from the inside.

"Girl, who are you looking for?"

The man who opened the door was a man in his thirties.

"Brother, please tell me this is Matchmaker Zhen's house. I have something to do with her."

Xiao Qing raised a bright smile, revealing her big white teeth.

She is actually better looking than Xiao Su. Xiao Su's face is full moon, her eyes are round, her mouth is small and she is short. She looks like a minor in junior high school. I can only say that she is cute, but not beautiful.

But Xiao Qing is much more delicate. She is half a head taller than Xiao Su, has a slender figure, a round face and a hump nose, and a pair of peach blossom eyes. She is fine if she doesn't smile, but she looks particularly good-looking once she smiles.

Matchmaker Zhen's son Da Zhuang was fascinated by it.

"Dazhuang, who is—"

An old but bright cry came from the yard, which brought the sluggish Da Zhuang back to his senses.

"Ahem, my mother is at home, girl, please come in." Da Zhuang knew that he was rude, coughed twice in embarrassment, and stepped aside to let Xiao Qing in.

"Hey, excuse me."

A glint flashed in Xiaoqing's eyes. She raised the corners of her mouth slightly and passed by Da Zhuang. The fragrance on her body made Da Zhuang almost lose his mind again.

"Dazhuang, I'm asking you something. Who's here? You kid, why are you ignoring people..." Matchmaker Zhen's voice sounded from far away until she saw Xiao Qing after walking out of the room.
