Chapter 18 Getting Rich Overnight



Her share was taken by her stepmother, but now she has taken all the tickets in the house, plus the ones she had saved up before—quite a lot.

She also received all the subsidies for her younger brother and the three burdens, so she didn't lack money when she arrived in Northeast China.

She first took her younger brother to the department store, where she bought him two new outfits and a pair of new shoes. She also bought several canned goods, malted milk powder, milk powder, biscuits, milk candy, and walnut shortbread. She bought a little of everything she could, including a large bag of sunflower seeds.

I also bought two sets of clothes suitable for wearing in the countryside, a flashlight, and some seasonings.

In addition, there are various fabrics and yarns, which can be used to make new clothes for myself and my younger brother when we get to Northeast China.

No matter which life she lived, Meng Fuyan was a top-tier rich and beautiful woman. In the minds of a wealthy young lady, there was no such thing as suffering. The conditions in the countryside were so poor that she had to acquire more good things for herself.

Moreover, she had to make it clear to her younger brother that these things were out in the open, otherwise she wouldn't be able to take them out of her spatial storage later.

After buying some daily necessities, I took my younger brother to the grain station to buy grain. I spent all the local grain coupons I had and put some of them into my spatial storage.

The newly purchased items were packed into a large parcel, and the two arrived at the train station at 11 a.m.

When she arrived, Lu Xingming's train had already started moving and was slowly accelerating.

Gu Tingzhi also arrived.

Seeing Meng Fuyan, Lu Xingming breathed a sigh of relief. "You said you'd come yesterday, but you didn't show up. I was so worried about you, I was really afraid something had happened to you. I'm so glad you're alright!"

Meng Fuyan chased after the train, stuffing the prepared package into the window. She arrived just in time; if she had come earlier, her third brother wouldn't have wanted her package.

"Third brother, this is a little something for you. Take it with you on the road and don't let it spoil. I'll write to you when I get to the countryside."

Lu Xingming was startled by the huge package and quickly caught it. Before he could say anything, Meng Fuyan's figure had already been left far behind.

The train sped up, and he had no choice but to accept the package.

After seeing Lu Xingming off, Gu Tingzhi handed her two sleeper train tickets, saying, "Here, these are for the next stop."

Meng Fuyan had said that she would board the train at the next stop on her way to Northeast China.

Meng Fuyan took it. "Thank you. I'll be leaving when the car arrives."

Gu Tingzhi asked, "Why do we need to get on at the next stop?"

Meng Fuyan didn't hide anything from him, and even had a smile on her face, "I signed up all my stepbrothers and stepsisters to go to the countryside. They don't know yet. If I stay in Changning City, they'll probably come to the train station to wait for me."

Looking at her, Gu Tingzhi saw that the girl was in good spirits and didn't seem to be very angry. He had thought that she would be full of resentment because her family had bullied her like this!

That's fine too. She went to the Northeast with him. Anyway, he wouldn't let this girl suffer. If she stayed in Changning City, whatever he wanted to do might actually bring her danger.

"Then wait for me at the next stop. I still have some things to take care of here. See you tomorrow."

"Okay, see you tomorrow."

Half an hour later, the train pulled into the station, and the siblings boarded.

An hour later, they arrived at the next stop and got off the train.

The trains for educated youth had fixed schedules and were arranged in advance. Meng Fuyan couldn't take her younger brother to the rural destination in advance, otherwise there would be no one to meet him.

However, she would absolutely not board the train at Changning Railway Station, because she knew that the documents for the Wu siblings to go to the countryside were issued this afternoon, and those people would definitely look for her. If they couldn't find her, they would definitely go to the train station to wait for her. The train for the educated youth was scheduled to depart at five o'clock tomorrow morning. If they went to the train station to look for her in advance, they might be found by chance, and that would definitely cause trouble.

So she left a day early to wait at the next stop, where the train carrying educated youth would pass by the next morning, and she could board it with her younger brother.

When Meng Fuyan and her younger brother got off at the train station, it was already past midnight. They quickly found a guesthouse nearby to stay in, as Meng Fuyan was exhausted.

She barely slept last night, had been traveling for so long, had an injury on her forehead, and had been under constant stress. Now that she had suddenly relaxed, she was completely exhausted.

After washing up and eating some of the food from her lunchbox, Meng Fuyan went to bed.

"Don't go anywhere. I'm going to sleep for a while. We're getting on the train tomorrow."

Looking at her sister's pale face, Meng Yunji nodded understandingly, "Sister, you go to sleep. I won't go anywhere; I'll just stay in the room."

Meng Fuyan drank a cup of spiritual spring water, and her fatigue subsided considerably. She lay on the bed and began organizing the supplies in her spatial storage.

Get rich overnight!

It's true that you can get rich overnight!

Besides the Meng family's property and the money her mother left her, she also found a box in Wu Guozhu and Zhang Guifang's bedroom. The box was originally placed in a hidden compartment of the wardrobe and contained old items that were her mother's dowry. Now, about half of them had been spent.

In addition, there was 10,000 yuan hidden in the wardrobe.

There was 3,000 yuan in cash and two bankbooks in the box, but she didn't know the passwords to the bankbooks, so she couldn't withdraw the money.

In addition, there are ten large yellow croakers and sixteen small yellow croakers hidden in the furniture compartments.

There wasn't much money in the room of the siblings, only a few hundred yuan in total, but they did manage to find two watches.

The most valuable item is in the study on the first floor.

There was a secret room in the study containing 50,000 in cash and two small boxes filled with gold, along with some letters.

This cash and gold, along with what's in the Wu family's old house, should be all of Wu Guozhu's assets. His mother had told him about the family's financial situation before she passed away, and now it roughly matches up.

As for those letters, Meng Fuyan flipped through them but found nothing of significant breakthrough. Many of them were things she already knew from her previous life, which was a bit disappointing.

The Wu and Zhang families' relatives didn't amassed much wealth; in total, it amounted to only a few thousand yuan and some tickets, though they did possess several bicycles, radios, watches, and other valuables.

The richest family was the home of Wu Laoda and that woman Zhang Guilan.

Because Wu Laoda lives in an apartment building, he doesn't have many old items in his home. He only managed to salvage a few from the furniture compartments, totaling about a dozen.

But there's a lot of money involved.

There was over 60,000 yuan in cash, and more than 300 tickets of various kinds.

If Wu Laoda hadn't fallen from grace, his wealth would have allowed him to soar to great heights after the reform and opening up.

But Meng Fuyan remembered that after the special era passed, many of those who had been harmed by Boss Wu returned, and some were even reinstated. Boss Wu, on the other hand, had suffered a lot of bad luck and probably spent a lot of his savings to survive.

There were a few letters, but not many of them were useful.

More than 20,000 yuan, two boxes of gold, and two boxes of old items were found in Zhang Guilan's home, most of which belonged to her mother.

Meng Fuyan gritted her teeth, feeling extremely regretful that she hadn't been able to kill the woman.

The most regrettable case is probably the Yuan family.
