After a while, the door opened and a little boy invited Lin Anru in.

"Mr. Lin, my young master please come in."

Lin Anru followed the little boy without looking around, and stopped only when they came to a screen.

"Brother Lin, have you found the recipe when you got back?"

A man who was estimated to be in his early twenties walked out from behind the screen. He was wearing a dark blue robe and walked out slowly. Although he was asking questions, his tone was affirmative.

"Yes, it lived up to my expectations."

"Okay, okay, do you have the recipe with you? If you do, I'll take you to Brother Hong right now."

Lin Anru nodded, and the man said no more. He took Lin Anru around to another dormitory, a dormitory that was more luxurious than the one just now.

Knocking on the door, waiting, entering, and waiting again, Lin Anru finally saw Brother Hong.

One of the main figures in their private school's upper circle.

"This is the contract. See if there is anything that needs to be changed."

Mr. Hong's servant handed the written contract to Lin Anru.

Lin Anru took it, looked at it carefully and said, "There is no problem with the contract."

Not only was there no problem, but the profit given to him by Hong Shao was also quite huge.

"If there are no problems, Mr. Lin, please sign here."

The servant guided him to the table to complete the contract, and then sent the two of them out of the dormitory.

The servant was in charge of the whole process, and Mr. Hong didn't say a word until they left.

"From today on, Brother Lin, you are directly out of poverty, hahahaha!"

The student who led Lin Anru here couldn't wait to pat Lin Anru on the shoulder and laughed as soon as he walked out of the door. He felt sincerely happy.

"I have to thank Brother Liu for the introduction." Lin Anru bowed to him.

"It's my honor to help Brother Lin."

Liu Xuezi's smile became more meaningful.

Lin Anru's escape from poverty was the Lin family's business, he was not happy at all. He was happy that he had brought Lin Anru into their faction and that he had made a contribution to Master Hong.

The two of them were not close to each other. If both of them did not have their own ulterior motives, they would have no intersection at all, so they chatted for a few words and then parted ways.

Lin Anru gave the ointment on her body to those students, which they had ordered in advance.

Only after he collected all the balance did he return to his dormitory.

The other three people in the dormitory had stopped chatting and were sitting on their beds reading books. When they saw Lin Anru come back, they just glanced at her and continued to study hard.

They are all from farming families. Those who can come here to study have ambitions no less than those young masters from wealthy families.

If you want to get ahead, besides studying hard, you also need to make connections.

There are so many talented people here, and they don't have the confidence that they can become the top ones among them, so everyone in this dormitory chooses to make additional connections while studying.

But up to this point, it seems that except for Lin Anru, the progress of the other three is not much better.

Lin Anru returned to her bed, found some oil paper, cut a small bag to put the contract in, and then hung it on her body.

He had never intended to join any faction before.

Taking sides randomly is not a wise choice, and it is not something he should consider at this stage.

But there is always a gap between reality and expectations.

Because of his daughter's matter, he learned about some things that would happen in the future, which would require a large amount of silver, forcing him to join the faction early.

In fact, as a member of the farmer's dormitory, he, like the other three, was not in the eyes of these young masters.

He was old and not very knowledgeable. The other three were not very knowledgeable, but at least they were young and had much more potential than this "old guy".

The only way it could enter their eyes was thanks to my daughter’s ointment.

There is a reason why outsiders describe their geographical location as a place of miasma.

The climate here is hot, the vegetation is lush, and there are many snakes, ants, rats and insects. People who live here, whether rich or poor, are troubled by these things.

As a result, various methods of insect prevention emerged one after another, and this type of ointment was especially popular among the nobility.

Families who have various insect-proof recipes will never lose income.

The ointments sold by Lin Anru are not much worse than the ointments made from the recipes they have in their hands, and the price is even lower.

This is also the reason why Lin Anru always sold the ointment secretly to the middle class in the private school and did not dare to sell it to the upper class.

The first is that he is afraid that others will spy on his prescription, snatch it away, or buy it at an extremely high price.

The second is the families of the rich and powerful, who have a lot of this type of plasters, and they are not easy to sell.

Why did he, who was selling well among the middle class, catch the eye of Mr. Hong? It was because many people in the middle class were dependents of the upper bourgeoisie.

That student Liu was a subordinate of Mr. Hong. In order to cling to Mr. Hong's support, Lin Anru's name appeared on Mr. Hong's list.

As early as two months ago, people from Master Hong's side wanted Lin Anru to hand over the prescription, but Lin Anru always found excuses to refuse.

"These ointments were left by my father-in-law before he died. As for the prescription, I haven't found it yet."

This was Lin Anru's excuse to the outside world. He didn't want to sell the house at that time. If the price was too low, it would not be cost-effective for him. If the price was too high, he would have to go to that person's faction. He didn't want to do that.

It’s just that sometimes whether you want to do it or not is one thing, and whether you do it or not is another.

There was more than one person who came to Lin Anru to buy a house, but why did he choose Mr. Hong instead of considering others?

Just because Mr. Hong is the man my daughter dreams of working as her aide.

He is also the enemy of Mr. Zhao mentioned by my deceased niece Lin Shijie.

Of course, there is a more important point. Mr. Hong is the one with the best reputation among those who tried to win him over. After many inquiries and observations, Lin Anru finally sold the prescription to him.

That is to say, he joined Mr. Hong's camp.

After putting away the contract, Lin Anru also joined the group of people who were studying hard. Why would others look up to me if I am not strong enough?

……

"Master, why did you give up such a huge profit to that student Lin?"

After the servant sent Lin Anru and Liu Xuezi away, he returned to the room and couldn't help but ask his young master curiously.

Master Hong had no intention of clearing up his confusion. He told him to keep the contract and waved his hand to let him leave.

The servant left, and Master Hong was the only one left in the room. He lay tiredly in the rocking chair with his eyes closed, as if he had fallen asleep.

But from the amount the chair was shaking you could tell he hadn't fallen asleep yet.

Why give up such a huge profit?

Of course, it is to win people’s hearts and make good connections!
