The next instant, a very familiar ribbon flew towards them.

The fear of being dominated by the dark red ribbon made them scatter like birds and beasts in an instant.

Master Chen no longer cared about his master and rolled to the side, covering his head.

After the crackling sound stopped, all that could be seen was thick, slightly choking smoke, and Su Nanxi was nowhere to be seen.

The man dodged, but was still hit by the blast, which made him scream. But he became even more excited, thinking he had found a business opportunity!

Master Chen quickly found the person and saw that he was alright, but seemed a little mentally unstable, with a silly grin on his face.

He reached out and touched the man's forehead, then touched his own, muttering, "He doesn't seem to have a fever! How did he become so stupid?"

Upon hearing this, the man slapped him, his silly grin vanishing. "You're the one with the fever! I'm perfectly fine! I just had a moment of amusement when I thought of a way to make money!"

Master Chen breathed a sigh of relief. It was good that nothing had happened; otherwise, he would have had a hard time too!

Are there ways to make money?

Okay!

Heaven knows how miserable their lives are in these remote and impoverished areas!

Back then, they lived a life of luxury, never worried about money. They never carried any cash when they went out, and could buy whatever they liked!

Ah! Only after they arrived here did they realize how important money is!

The key point is that this silver is also very rare!

Their source of income was cut off, and they had to rely on themselves. They had very little money and often had to tighten their belts to make ends meet!

Don't be fooled by their official positions; behind their glamorous facade lies a truly dire situation!

This wretched place is not only unable to develop, but it also has a lot of trivial problems. Everything costs money, but they don't know how to make money! Besides, money isn't so easy to earn!

They dared not say that they hadn't eaten meat for a month or two! They couldn't even remember what meat tasted like!

Therefore, whenever they see even the slightest business opportunity, their eyes light up, and they can't let go of any chance to make money!

"Yu Chen, you mean that crackling thing from earlier?"

Master Chen asked Gao Yuchen uncertainly, "Forgive me for not noticing anything about this method of making money."

Gao Yuchen glanced at Chen Shiye with a hint of disdain, "You have absolutely no brains for making money! Think about it, that thing has never appeared before, isn't it novel enough? It's bound to attract attention! Besides, I think that thing can not only be used for amusement, but also as a weapon in a critical moment! Tsk tsk! Maybe it has more than just those two functions! Those rich people crave novel and interesting things, once it's on sale, it'll definitely be snapped up!"

After listening, Master Chen thought about it and felt that it made a lot of sense, but, "Where are we going to get this thing?"

Everyone knows that scarcity increases value!

If they get there first, control the quantity, raise the price, and sell exclusively to wealthy people, they can make a fortune!

The important thing is, where do we find this thing!

That girl is clearly skilled; forcibly taking her is not an option. She might have other weapons on her! We don't want to end up not returning!

Now that girl has left again, it's obvious she doesn't want them to know her whereabouts, and it won't be so easy for them to find out!

Even if we find it, how can we get them to sell it?

Gao Yuchen said nonchalantly, "That girl already said she knows Chen Liang. You can just follow the clues and find him, right? Why bother thinking about all that nonsense!"

"Yes!" Master Chen stroked his chin, but he felt uneasy. He had a feeling that Chen Liang only knew the person and nothing else.

Unbeknownst to Su Nanxi, someone had their eye on her firecrackers and wanted to make money from them, so she returned to the building she had been in before.

Unfortunately, the place is deserted and in a mess.

Finding nothing, Su Nanxi went to Zhao Jinhua again, hoping to investigate her further.

Zhao Jinhua married a fat old man surnamed Jin. On the surface, he was a wealthy man with a rich family background. His ancestors had accumulated a lot of wealth over several generations. They owned countless acres of fertile land, expanded their mansion every year, and owned so many shops that they couldn't count them all. He even put up a sign for his mansion, Jin Mansion, making him a true tycoon!

However, by the time of Kim Sung-ryong's generation, the family had already declined significantly. In addition, Kim Sung-ryong was a spoiled brat from a young age and a notorious spendthrift, so by this time the Kim family had very little left.

On the surface, it is decorated in a very luxurious and imposing manner, but in private, its life is not much different from that of ordinary people.

Kim Sung-ryong was used to spending money lavishly and couldn't stand a hard life, so he racked his brains to find ways to make money. He discovered that he could earn a lot of money by acting as a middleman and helping to connect people, so he got the idea.

Zhao Jinhua was just a pawn in his game; he didn't marry her to be his wife.

Zhao Jinhua, who married into a wealthy family, did indeed enjoy the wonderful life she had imagined for a while, but this didn't last long, and she was soon assigned tasks.

After being asked to serve other old men, Zhao Jinhua was then subjected to Jin Chenglong's arbitrary arrangements.

To put it bluntly, it's a game for the rich. These old men have a perverse sense of humor; they enjoy wife-swapping. Wife-swapping, as the name suggests, involves exchanging wives, and what happens next is self-evident.

Sure enough, Su Nanxi had just returned to the Jin residence and found Zhao Jinhua's place when she overheard Jin Chenglong telling Zhao Jinhua to serve some master.

"Master Liu likes you very much. He said that he has a lot of fun every time he plays with you. Of all the people he plays with, you are the most fun. He has mentioned it to me several times, and I can't refuse him anymore. You can go over after you have washed and packed yourself up. I have already asked someone to prepare a sedan chair."

Zhao Jinhua nodded in agreement, and Jin Chenglong turned and left with a delicate woman in his arms.

After Jin Chenglong left, Zhao Jinhua collapsed to the ground, her face full of grief and her eyes empty and lifeless.

She knew who the woman was; she was someone else's concubine that Jin Chenglong had acquired through a trade. He was very pleased with her and would exchange her for someone else every few days.

She was a wife, but Kim Sung-ryong would replace her at any time, and most of the women he brought back were other men's concubines, who were young, beautiful and had great figures!

The servants ignored Zhao Jinhua's mood and dragged her into the inner room. After washing her up, she came out smelling sweet. They dressed her in an exquisite but thin outer garment and a long cloak before stuffing her into the sedan chair.

When they arrived at Master Liu's house, Master Liu complained that Zhao Jinhua was too late, as she was already holding a child. He then told her to leave the child behind and have a servant take her to wait for him.

Zhao Jinhua had no expression, probably because she had encountered this before, and she obediently went out with the person.

Zhao Jinhua, perhaps familiar with the situation, lay down on the bed after learning what had happened, wanting to rest for a while.

In her dazed state, she felt someone touching her clothes. Zhao Jinhua thought Grandpa Liu had arrived, so she didn't even open her eyes and let the person do as they pleased.

Seeing that she did not resist, the intruder became bolder and bolder. He ripped off her clothes, took a strip of cloth from the bedside and covered her eyes, and tied her hands to the headboard.

After a fierce biting, it plunged straight in.

"You are not Master Liu!"
