After the college entrance examination, Ye Zhaoyu stayed in the family compound for seven days, mainly to keep Qin Zichuan company.

The night before she was to leave the family compound, Ye Zhaoyu said to Qin Zichuan, "Zichuan, I want to go to the south for a trip."

Although she spoke in a tone of discussion, Ye Zhaoyu's face showed an expression of absolute determination to go.

"How long do you plan to stay?" Qin Zichuan knew that Ye Zhaoyu would do everything she could to do what she wanted to do, and he couldn't stop her.

"They'll be back in about two weeks, before the New Year," Ye Zhaoyu said, giving an approximate timeframe.

"Okay, I also have a mission to take place here, and I'm not sure when I'll be back." Qin Zichuan also mentioned his own situation.

"Okay, then you need to be careful. I'll give you some medicine for self-defense." Ye Zhaoyu said as she got up to take out her medicine box, found several kinds of special hemostatic drugs, anti-inflammatory drugs, some poisons and antidotes for him, and explained how to use each one and what its effects were.

Qin Zichuan was moved as he watched Ye Zhaoyu explain things to him earnestly.

She cares about herself.

After she finished speaking, Qin Zichuan couldn't wait to carry Ye Zhaoyu to bed. The mosquito net was drawn, and they spent a passionate night together.

The next morning, Ye Zhaoyu returned to the city.

On her way back, Ye Zhaoyu noticed that some people had already started setting up stalls in some alleys.

The sense of stealth is so strong that it's hard for others not to notice.

The wind is really about to change.

Ye Zhaoyu was thinking about what kind of business she should do to accumulate initial capital.

Her private hospital and private laboratory both require investment, and it's not a small amount of money.

Ye Zhaoyu had considered accepting offers from some government agencies, but after visiting such places a few times with her mother, she realized they weren't entirely pure; those who were genuinely engaged in research and development had already been demoted.

It's pointless to argue back and forth inside every day; you might as well be a good-for-nothing.

It's quite difficult to borrow a lab, and there are always people who like to complain.

Sigh, the lab still couldn't figure it out, and Ye Zhaoyu was a little frustrated.

Forget it, let's make money first!

If that doesn't work, have her mother donate a private laboratory for her.

After all, she has money and resources, so she shouldn't hesitate to rely on her parents when the time comes.

Ye Zhaoyu went to the train station on her way and bought three train tickets to the south.

"Xiao Feifei, tell Monkey and Skinny that we're heading south tomorrow." Ye Zhaoyu returned home and saw Ye Fei, asking her to inform the two of them.

It's almost January now, and the round trip will coincide with the Lunar New Year.

Ye Fei went to inform Ye Bo to help prepare food, and then went out to inform Monkey and Skinny.

Afterwards, I went to the post office and called Ye Die and Ye Wu to tell them when Ye Zhaoyu was heading south.

Ye Fei made sure everything was arranged before heading back.

Some of the Ye family's assets have already been returned, and Ye Fei is currently sorting through these assets.

There are a total of 4 shops, 3 houses, and a pharmacy.

We need to ask Ye Zhaoyu what to do with these things later.

Ye Feicai provided Ye Zhaoyu with a detailed list of all the businesses he had previously conducted and how he had handled them.

Ye Zhaoyu took the list and looked at it. "Let's get the house near Peking University ready first. We'll move there after school starts. Let's not rush the rest. We'll talk about it when I get back from the south."

Ye Zhaoyu quickly made arrangements.

Without Ye Fei, she doesn't know how busy she would be. "Little Fei Fei, it's so good to have you. Otherwise, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to handle it even if I were in two places at once."

"You're so sweet-talking." Ye Fei nodded at Ye Zhaoyu.

Ye Fei was trained in the manner of a head maid before the reform and opening up.

It can be said that he manages all the big and small matters around Ye Zhaoyu.

The next day, Ye Zhaoyu carried a small package, while Monkey and Skinny each carried a light rattan box. The three of them boarded a train heading south.

Monkey and Skinny were two boys in their early twenties, and it was their first time traveling far from home; their faces were full of excitement.

Both of them were quick-witted and could chat with anyone. They were very outgoing and good at gathering information. Their only flaw was that they were not good at studying.

"Sister Little Fish, do you think we'll have another chance to come out?" the skinny man asked Ye Zhaoyu.

"Yes, as long as you work hard and listen to me, you may be able to travel all over our Dragon Kingdom in the future," Ye Zhaoyu said confidently.

"Really?"

"Really?"

Their eyes lit up, and they looked at Ye Zhaoyu with anticipation.

"Yes, it's true. When has your Little Fish Sister ever lied to you?" Ye Zhaoyu said confidently.

"Yes. Indeed, we believe you." The monkey and the skinny man nodded happily.

"Tch, she's not lying. She looks like a vixen, she can make men lose their minds. She's really something, one isn't enough, so she hooks up with two." A girl with braided pigtails said in a seductive tone.

Before Ye Zhaoyu could even speak, the skinny man scanned the girl from head to toe with a disdainful look, and finally said with a look of disgust, "Indeed, someone like you, with no meat on your bones, wouldn't be wanted even if you paid her."

“You…” The girl stood up angrily after being spoken to by the skinny man, pointing her finger at him, “It’s one thing for a grown man to obey a woman, but when I kindly spoke up for you, you still insulted me.”

"So you're jealous that we two brothers are being so attentive to her and ignoring you? You're jealous?" The monkey glanced at the girl sideways.

"You..." This was probably the first time the girl had her thoughts so bluntly stated.

Although the skinny guy and the monkey aren't the kind of stunningly handsome men, they are still quite good-looking among ordinary people, with delicate features and a presentable appearance.

The girls did seem a little jealous of Ye Zhaoyu.

"Stop with the 'you, you, you'! Instead of wasting your time, go and learn from others who are not only unattractive but also have a bad heart and no culture. Be careful, or no one will want you," the monkey kindly advised.

Pfft, the girl blushed with anger. Being belittled like that by a man, she wished she could disappear into a crack in the ground.

Ye Zhaoyu, however, remained calm and composed, sitting there watching.

In the end, the girl couldn't argue with them any longer and got someone to switch her seats, and that was the end of it.

That evening, Ye Zhaoyu went to the train conductor to exchange for three sleeper berths. Once in the sleeper berths, there were far fewer people, and the people's manners were much better. She, Monkey, and Skinny all addressed each other as brother and sister, and nothing bad happened.

After arriving in the south, Ye Die came to pick me up and called a taxi.

Ye Die took the three of them to the hotel. After they ate, washed up, and rested, Ye Die reported the information she and Ye Wu had gathered during their investigation to Ye Zhaoyu and gave her some advice: "Little Fish, the fastest way to make money and recoup your investment is by selling clothes, appliances, and watches. I think if you want to accumulate capital quickly, you can do this."

Ye Zhaoyu came specifically for the clothes.

Of the four basic necessities of life—clothing, food, housing, and transportation—clothing is the industry she has the easiest access to and the one with the highest demand.
