Ye Yun smiled.

However, because of Gu Jin's protection of Gu Yingying, she didn't specifically talk to Gu Jin. It wasn't that she was petty, but she wanted Gu Jin to know that she also had a temper.

"Scalpers" is a special group that emerged in the 1980s.

During the era of the dual-track pricing system, some people took advantage of the price difference between planned and unplanned goods to buy and sell related goods in the market for profit, and were jokingly called "scalpers".

It was also during this early stage of development that scalpers were prevalent throughout the country.

"How about it, Qin Zheng? Want to do something big together?" Gu Jin knew Ye Yun didn't like him, so he looked at Qin Zheng with a nonchalant smile.

Qin Zheng stood up and put his arm around Ye Yun's shoulder, "I'll listen to my wife."

"Tsk..."

Gu Jin looked at him with disdain when she heard him say that.

Why listen to his wife? She just doesn't want to work with him.

"I really will listen to my wife." Qin Zheng was too lazy to argue with Gu Jin anymore. After seeing that Tian Xiaohui had packed her things, he planned to get on his bicycle and go home with Ye Yun.

Gu Jin quickly followed him.

The noise of the rickshaw was so loud it gave everyone a headache the whole way, but Gu Jin shamelessly followed Ye Yun and Qin Zheng home.

When Qin Xiang'e saw that a guest had arrived at her home, she quickly served tea and water and invited Gu Jin to sit down.

Gu Jin had come to see Qin Zheng with Uncle Li and the others last time, and she mistakenly thought that Gu Jin was also trying to persuade Qin Zheng to go back to work this time.

After dinner, Qin Zheng planned to go up the mountain with Ye Yun to look at some medicinal herbs.

During this time, he and Ye Yun didn't just focus on mung bean cakes. They would also go up the mountain every day to look for herbs. Ye Yun would also teach Qin Zheng to identify herbs, in case they needed them sometime.

Gu Jin followed Qin Zheng back and forth, and finally understood what Qin Zheng had been doing.

He was panting heavily after searching all the way. While the others rested under the shade of a tree, he fanned himself with his hand and said, "Qin Zheng, you're living a very fulfilling life. Don't you really plan to go out and explore with me?"

Break through?

Wasn't what they did before considered "daring"?

One was brought home by his family to be groomed as their heir, while the other got married and stayed in the mountains for her.

This is Ye Yun's perspective.

She turned her gaze to Qin Zheng, asking for his opinion, as she respected his thoughts.

Qin Zheng held her hand and said the same thing again: "I'll listen to my wife."

"Pooh……"

Gu Jin felt insulted again and spat at Qin Zheng without any mercy.

Ye Yun couldn't help but laugh.

She hit the nail on the head, pointing out the crux of the matter: "Gu Jin, being a reseller isn't as easy as you make it out to be. It's true that you and Qin Zheng can drive, but do you even have a car? Even if you're planning to sell cars, it's so dangerous outside right now. Even the cars in your team could be in danger, let alone the two of you who will be the only ones protecting the car."

Gu Jin hesitated for a moment, "Actually, we could also take the train back and forth..."

"So, how much cargo can you bring?"

"..." Gu Jin was momentarily speechless. He silently looked at Qin Zheng and said, "What do you think about us paying someone to escort the goods back?"

"Not so good." Qin Zheng's lips twitched. "I'm afraid someone will run off with my goods."

Gu Jin: ""

That makes so much sense, he was speechless.

Ye Yun sighed and gave them a suggestion: "If you ask me, it would be better to do this: since you two can both drive, if you want to do it, do it near us. What does your county's transportation team do? You two can do that too. Compete with them for business. Anyway, the government is allowing us to do business now, so don't blame us for competing with them for food. We can make money and also vent your anger."

Gu Jin thought it made sense and nodded. "Where did the car come from?"

"Buy it, do you expect me to build one for you?" Qin Zheng glanced at him sideways. What kind of basic questions was this guy asking?

Gu Jin chuckled.

He looked down and did some calculations, and suddenly realized... he didn't have enough money at all. Even buying a small four-wheeled vehicle would cost tens of thousands of yuan, and even selling himself and Qin Zheng wouldn't be enough.

Ye Yun smiled. "Have you figured it out? How many small four-wheelers can you buy?"

Gu Jin tugged at the corner of her lips.

He was too embarrassed to tell Ye Yun that with his current savings, he couldn't even afford a truck bed.

So Ye Yun was playing him from the very beginning?

Thinking of this, Gu Jin waved her hand in annoyance, feeling that she had made a mistake in all her plans.

Qin Zheng had already turned his gaze away from Gu Jin and looked at Ye Yun, "Wife, do you have any suggestions for him?"

Ye Yun had no intention of having anything to do with Gu Jin, and waved her hand with a smile, "I'm not qualified."

"Ye Yun..."

Gu Jin sensed the distance in Ye Yun's words and rubbed his face in annoyance. He regretted arguing with Ye Yun.

This woman looks all smiles on the surface, but she's actually quite wicked inside.

Qin Zheng raised an eyebrow at Gu Jin and said indifferently, "You heard it too. My wife can't really help you. I don't want to cause you any trouble. Figure out what you want to do yourself."

The implication is that your brother is no longer there for you.

Gu Jin was left feeling sullen and clicked his tongue in frustration. In the end, he could only follow Qin Zheng and Ye Yun down the mountain in a huff.

He was just unwilling to accept it.

If you really can't build a successful career on your own, then you'll have to go back and inherit the family business.

I got home around dark.

As soon as he got home, Gu Jin touched his waist and suddenly found nothing. He hurriedly said something to Qin Zheng and turned to head into the mountains.

Qin Zheng asked him where he was going.

Gu Jin turned around and said, "I had a lighter in my pocket, but I think I lost it on the way. It's quite valuable; it cost me several yuan. I have to find it."

“Stay home. You’re not familiar with this area. I’ll go find it for you.”

Qin Zheng put the bamboo basket on his back aside, picked up a wooden stick, turned around and went down the slope, searching along the mountain path.

It was nearing dusk, and some small creatures in the mountains occasionally came out to move around.

If you don't carry something for self-defense, you might get bitten.

As Gu Jin watched Qin Zheng walk away, he suddenly leaned close to Ye Yun and asked, "Are you really planning to let Qin Zheng give up his job in the team like this?"

"Um?"

Ye Yun couldn't help but smile. "You must be mistaken. It wasn't me who made him give up."

Gu Jin didn't mean it that way. Afraid that she would misunderstand, he smiled and explained, "What I mean is, if Qin Zheng does this, are you just going to condone him and not stop him?"

Ye Yun understood.

“He’s an adult, he has his own way of making judgments, and he knows what kind of life path suits him.” She looked up at Gu Jin and smiled gently. “Gu Jin, people come into this world to enjoy life, not to scheme and fight. There are countless ways to live. You can live a life of high position and power, or you can live a life of leisure and freedom. No one dictates that you have to be someone important. You are the same, aren’t you?”

A look of surprise appeared on Gu Jin's face, clearly indicating that she had been asked the question.
