Chapter 392: It turns out that the one being kept is actually me

In this world today, people can’t choose whether to be a human or a dog.

Soon, Chu Xianping, who was shocked and speechless by this sentence, left.

Wei Changtian stood alone at the door for a while.

Tsk tsk tsk! I never thought that one day I would have such an insight! Is it because of my different status that I think about problems from a different perspective? After all, in my previous life, I worked 996 every day, so I didn’t have the time to think about such social problems. Wait a minute, when I think about it, it seems that there is no difference in my previous life.

Although a group of "life mentors" all say "you are the master of your own life", Wei Changtian really doesn't understand how someone like him who has worked hard for decades but can't even afford a house can "choose his own life".

well.

Perhaps no matter which parallel world it is, the historical process of mankind is ultimately the same.

I don’t know when the ultimate social form that countless pioneers in previous lives fought for will be realized.

“.”

He gathered his thoughts that had drifted away to who knows where, shook his head, turned around and stepped over the threshold.

As a "dog" oppressed by the world in his previous life, and now as a "human" who has the ability to change the world, Wei Changtian thought about it for a long time and suddenly found that his motives did not seem to be that complicated.

Maybe he just simply doesn't like the way the world is.

Although it was late at night, there were still two rooms in the courtyard with candles lit.

Now Yang Liushi has moved in with Qingxian, and Liang Qin has also returned to the general's mansion to reunite with the family.

So the only ones who were still waiting for him in the middle of the night were Xu Qingwan and Lu Jingyao.

After hesitating for a moment, he stopped in front of the latter's door.

Wei Changtian knocked on the door twice gently, and almost at the same time, there was a response from inside the door.

"Who is it?"

"Ahem, it's me."

"You, come in."

"good."

With a voice that sounded somewhat happy, Wei Changtian pushed the door open and walked in. He looked at the figure sitting beside the bed and asked, "Why aren't you asleep yet?"

"I'm waiting for you."

Lu Jingyao answered truthfully and moved her body as if she was about to stand up and greet him.

But before her butt left the bed, Wei Changtian's words had already floated over.

"Oh, now I'm back, you can go to sleep."

"I'm leaving."

"Squeak~"

From the time he came in to the time he left, Wei Changtian stood in the room for less than ten breaths.

Lu Jingyao stared at the closed door with wide eyes. After a long pause, she suddenly grabbed the embroidered pillow beside her and raised her little fist as if to hit it, as if she wanted to vent her anger on the pillow.

But just as the punch was about to land on the pillow, she suddenly retracted her strength and ended up with a light slap.

“Bang!”

"asshole!"

Biting her lips, Lu Jingyao slapped the pillow again and again.

"Hate!"

“I hate it so much!”

“.”

"I'm back!"

Just when Lu Jingyao was treating the pillow as someone and venting her resentment angrily yet gently, Wei Changtian had already appeared in front of Xu Qingwan.

"It's so late and you're still not asleep, what are you doing?"

I walked over with interest and saw a thick stack of account books.

"Are you settling accounts?"

"yes."

Xu Qingwan smiled and pushed the account book over here: "I didn't know when you would come back, so I thought about checking the accounts."

"When did you learn this?"

Wei Changtian was greatly surprised. He casually flipped through the account book and found that this should be the account of his "small family".

"That's what you learned when you went to Fengyuan."

On the other side, Comrade Xiao Xu replied somewhat proudly: "I specially found an accountant to teach me."

"So you are the one who manages the money at home now?"

Wei Changtian asked with a smile: "How much money do we have now?"

"Including what Sister Lu brought from the capital, the total is more than 50,000 taels."

Xu Qingwan pointed to a string of capital numbers on the account book and explained, "Here, look, it's all written here."

“.”

Five thousand four thousand six hundred and seventy-seven taels and one qian.

Wei Changtian took a glance and thought to himself that he actually remembered it so accurately.

More than 50,000 taels were not a lot of money for a family like his, and this was actually closely related to him.

He did not take any of the assets of the Shuzhou branch of Xuan Jing Si, nor did he take any of the money earned by the Freemasons.

To put it bluntly, Wei Changtian only knows how to spend money but not make money.

Even the income in this account book is basically dividends from some businesses that Xu Qingwan and Lu Jingyao had previously invested in.

"Hahaha, it turns out you're the one supporting me."

After laughing twice, Wei Changtian made a joke.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Xu Qingwan also smiled, hit him lightly, closed the account book, and ran to the cabinet to lock it.

The two of them have been together for a long time, and she has long been accustomed to such inappropriate jokes, and will no longer seriously discuss the issue of "who supports whom" with Wei Changtian.

“Click~Click~”

The sound of copper locks turning was heard one after another. Comrade Xiao Xu had put three locks on one cabinet.

Wei Changtian was watching her hamster-like behavior from behind, and suddenly said with a smile:

"By the way, let me ask you something."

"Well, go ahead and ask." Xu Qingwan was still rustling around hiding the account books.

"If we only have ten taels of silver now."

Wei Changtian asked curiously, "How are you going to spend it?"

"Ten taels?"

Comrade Xiao Xu turned back with a puzzled look on his face, and actually thought about it carefully before answering seriously: "Of course it should be used to buy grain and rice. You can buy more brown rice, which is cheap, and the rice husks can be used to feed horses."

"Wait a moment."

Wei Changtian interrupted with a surprised look on his face: "We still need to raise horses with only ten taels of silver?"

"You need to raise it."

Xu Qingwan nodded seriously: "Even if you don't take a carriage when you go out, you have to ride a horse."

“.”

I'm so poor that I can only eat brown rice, but you still want me to raise a horse? ? Wei Changtian didn't know what to say for a moment, so he had to ask the next question.

"What if there is a hundred taels?"

"Then we can start a small business!"

"One thousand taels?"

"Well, if it's one thousand taels, then you can ride in a carriage!"

"Don't just think about me, what else?"

"Besides that, you can also open a grain store."

“Why open a grain store?”

"Because even though the grain shop doesn't make much money, it never loses money, especially in troubled times. The price of grain has risen sharply recently."

“.”

Wow, I didn’t expect Xu Qingwan actually has the potential to be a profiteer.

Wei Changtian smacked his lips and was about to continue asking, "How are you going to spend ten thousand taels?"

But at this moment, a fleeting thought suddenly flashed through my mind.

"You just said that food prices have been rising recently?"

"yes."

Xu Qingwan nodded: "Shuzhou is actually not bad. I heard that other provinces have seen even greater increases. Some places are 30% more expensive than this time last year."

"Really?"

Wei Changtian frowned, lowered his head and stopped talking.

Comrade Xiao Xu waited for a while, and finally couldn't help asking: "Changtian, what are you thinking about?"

"I'm thinking"

"Ten million taels can open several grain shops."
