At the beginning, his wife came to him, and he became rich by selling kidney treasures.

He took twenty taels from Hu Sanyan and agreed to meet at the restaurant in the afternoon.

Ren Hao gave the money to the little girl.

"Let's go and bury your father first."

"Thank you so much for your kindness, young master. Qian'er is willing to serve you forever, like a slave." Qian'er knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly, holding the twenty taels of silver.

"Get up." Ren Hao waved his hand, but still couldn't help smiling bitterly.

He even secretly slapped himself.

I really have nothing to do. What the old man said is right. Why should I join in the fun?

Not only did he fail to buy the donkey, but he also owed twenty taels of silver and had one more mouth to feed.

Although this was nothing, Ren Hao was very unhappy. He turned around and stomped hard on the sickly young man's face twice.

"It's all your fault!"

He brought Qian'er to the coffin shop, spent thirteen taels of silver to buy a coffin, and spent some more money to hire some people. He brought funeral supplies to a dilapidated temple, collected Qian'er's father's body and put it in the coffin.

Then they came to an open space outside the city, spent five taels of silver to buy a small piece of land for a grave, and buried Qian'er's father there.

After burning paper, scattering paper money and offering sacrifices, Qian'er was dressed in white mourning clothes and her little face was wiped much cleaner.

"Owner……"

"Ahem...just call me Young Master." Ren Hao waved his hands repeatedly. Why did this title sound so uncomfortable?

"Yes, young master." Qian'er followed Ren Hao obediently and walked towards the county town.

Soon, the two arrived at the restaurant, and the waiter eagerly led Ren Hao to the third floor.

When he opened the door, Ren Hao saw Hu Sanyan walking around the room holding a stone.

"Boss Hu, what are you doing..." Ren Hao asked with a somewhat amused look.

Hu Sanyan wiped the sweat from his forehead, sat down and said, "Didn't you say to abstain from sex? I can't sit still, so I can only make myself a little tired, so that I don't think about it anymore."

Ren Hao gave a thumbs up. He had to say that Hu Sanyan was quite smart to think of this method.

"Boss Hu, these are forty kidney pills. Please count them." Ren Hao put the medicine on the table.

"No need to count, I trust you." Hu Sanyan just took a look and put it away.

"I lent you twenty taels before. Now after deducting four taels, there are still sixteen taels left. Brother, you must work hard." Hu Sanyan did not forget to give advice.

Ren Hao's cheeks twitched.

"Boss Hu, I have something good here, are you interested?"

"What medicine?" Hu Sanyan asked with interest.

"It's not medicine, but this..." Ren Hao took out all the paper in the bamboo tube and spread it on the table.

"Oh? Paper? What's the big deal? It's not like I can't buy it." Hu Sanyan curled his lips.

After all, he is the richest man in Taoyuan County and can still afford a few pieces of paper.

"Boss Hu, take another look. What's the difference between these papers and the ones you bought?" Ren Hao said with a smile.

"Huh?" Hu Sanyan was stunned for a moment, then he picked it up and took a look at it doubtfully.

The next moment, he was stunned.

This paper is unusually flexible, with a delicate surface and fair color, completely different from the yellowed paper I bought before.

Seeing this, he quickly stood up and walked out of the house. After a moment, he returned with a yellowed paper in his hand.

After a careful comparison, Hu Sanyan frowned slightly: "Where did you buy this paper? Apart from the difference in color, the other differences are not much."

"You want me to take these papers?"

Ren Hao shook his head slightly: "Boss Hu, how much is the paper you bought?"

"One hundred and fifty copper coins per piece. These are all official papers from the capital. Most people can't even buy them if they want."

Seeing Hu Sanyan's proud look, Ren Hao slowly extended a finger and said, "These papers of mine are only one hundred copper coins each. How about that?"

Hu Sanyan hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "Not bad. Well, for your sake, I'll accept these papers."

Ren Hao said, "Boss Hu, there are more than just these papers!"

Hearing Ren Hao's words, Hu Sanyan raised his eyebrows: "What do you mean? You still have a lot?"

"Not now, but there will be in the future!" Ren Hao said lightly.

"Boss Hu, let me be honest with you. These papers were made by a distant relative of mine. The price is much lower than the official paper. If you are willing to accept them, I can sell them on..."

Speaking of this, Hu Sanyan couldn't help but feel his heart beating fast.

Official paper costs one hundred and fifty copper coins or even more, but the paper from Ren Hao only costs one hundred copper coins, and there might even be discounts if you buy in bulk.

Even if I sell it at the price of one hundred and forty copper coins, I'm afraid it will still be in short supply.

Because there was too little paper in ancient China, it was not enough!

How much you want to earn at that time is just a matter of a word, right?

"Where is your relative? Let him come!" Hu Sanyan said eagerly.

Ren Hao waved his hand and said, "Boss Hu, it is not convenient to reveal the identity of my relative, so he entrusted me to come here. There is no need to meet him. As long as Boss Hu is willing, I will deliver all the papers in the future."

"This……"

Hu Sanyan fell into deep thought.

After a moment, he finally gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I agree! I'll take as much paper as you have!"

“Then I wish us a pleasant cooperation!” Ren Hao bowed.

Looking at Ren Hao's leaving back, Hu Sanyan's eyes changed.

At this moment, a graceful figure walked out from the side, came to Hu Sanyan and said, "Uncle, this person cannot be trusted. The origin of this paper is unknown, and its quality is comparable to official paper. He is not telling the truth."

Hu Sanyan looked solemn and said in a deep voice: "Originally, I thought that Ren Hao was just a silly boy holding on to a recipe passed down from his ancestors. I didn't expect that he had this skill. If I could know how to make this paper..."

"Uncle, why don't I send someone to keep an eye on it and investigate first." Xu Yating said.

"Okay!" Hu Sanyan nodded.

Within the county.

Ren Hao bought another 20 kilograms of rice and 10 kilograms of meat. He didn't make any money today and he lost a lot.

Ren Hao carried the rice and Qian'er carried the meat.

Two figures, one big and one small, were rushing towards home on the rugged village road.

Behind them, a ghost-like figure followed silently, always about fifty meters away from Ren Hao, and always sticking to the roadside. As long as Ren Hao stopped, he would hide in the dense jungle next to him.

Ren Hao, who was walking breathlessly in front, shuddered all over. A creepy feeling rose from his heart, and he couldn't help but look up at the sun which was still quite hot.

"It's not cold here, why is Fei Si so cold?" Ren Hao put the rice on the ground and sat down panting. Qian'er next to him looked even more tired with a pale face.

"Master, I can't hold on any longer." Qian'er said, also panting.

"Let's rest for a while before we go." Ren Hao looked around. It was still about half an hour's journey from here to home.

"You sleep for a while, I'll call you later." Ren Hao said after seeing Qian'er's ugly face.

"Thank you, young master." Qian'er lay on the ground and fell asleep almost without any delay.
