Chapter 43 The Richest Businessman in the World (9) (3/5)



Lin Su must have thought of it, but he didn't want to dampen his enthusiasm.

"Madam is truly a man of national talent." Chen Tang's admiration for him increased, and he felt very touched.

Even his parents sometimes might not support his wild ideas. Only Lin Su would listen carefully to and think carefully about every word he said.

"If you don't want to, we can accept you as our husband in the future." Chen Tang made a great decision to give in, but he did not regret it, even if everyone knew that he was the wife.

"What are you talking about, my husband?" Lin Su laughed. "My husband married me with three matchmakers and six betrothals. Are you going to divorce me and ask me to marry someone else?"

"Of course not." Chen Tang didn't want to go through so much trouble. If something unexpected happened and the lady was no longer his, he would regret it to death.

"Well, it's great now, no need to change it." Lin Su said indifferently.

Chen Tang felt as if his hesitation was not that important: "...Aren't you concerned about your status and what outsiders say?"

"Will that change our relationship?" Lin Su asked back.

Chen Tang was puzzled: "No."

"Well, then there's no need to change it." Lin Su replied with a smile, "Husband, don't think too much about it."

“Oh…” Chen Tang felt that he had been worrying in vain.

However, he was very concerned about doing good deeds, even more than his own business. He made changes to his plans and even went out of his way to investigate the customs and habits of various places, which made Lin Su curious about his enthusiasm.

While he was busy, Lin Su casually asked, "Why are you so enthusiastic about doing good deeds?"

"To accumulate merit." Chen Tang answered casually, then glared at Lin Su warily after realizing what was happening. "Don't even think about tricking me!"

Doing good deeds to accumulate merit so that they can meet in the next life is too shameful and does not fit the image of the young master of the Shen family as a smart person.

But who is Lin Su? Just this sentence reminds me of what Chen Tang said on the boat. At that time, he was sighing about the merits and virtues, and it turned out that he took it to heart.

Chen Tang looked forward to meeting him again, and Lin Su didn't mind. If they could meet again in another world, he might still choose this person, just for the touching moment.

The trip to Jiangnan naturally cannot be just about business. As the host, Yun Hui will take the two of them out again when he has a day off to visit the local scenic spots.

In order to avoid embarrassment for the three of them, Chen Tang also called Xiao Mingzhao to join them. The four of them all had outstanding looks, and when they were traveling together, they really attracted a lot of people to look back.

But the four of them were contented. Ming Zhao was simple-minded, Yun Hui was used to being stared at, and as for Chen Tang, he didn't think anything of it when the streets were deserted. And Lin Su, according to 06, was the most shameless among the four, so being stared at was nothing to him.

Ming Zhao has a very cheerful personality and is very curious about new things. Occasionally, when he sees one or two things, his eyes become very bright.

"Do you like this inkstone?" Yun Hui followed his gaze and asked with a smile.

Ming Zhao came back to his senses and shook his head, saying, "It just looked a bit like your inkstone, so I took a few more glances at it."

"Qingsong Yuzhu, this inkstone is quite unique. How much is it worth?" Chen Tang walked forward and asked.

"Not much, not much, just two cents of silver." The shopkeeper looked at the wealth around Chen Tang, and his smile deepened a lot.

Chen Tang looked at Yun Hui and said, "It's not very expensive."

Two taels of silver was less than the price of a dish for Young Master Shen, but it was a considerable sum of money for an honest official like Yun Hui.

"If you like it, can I buy it for you? I'm practicing calligraphy recently, and a good inkstone can be used for several years." Yun Hui looked at Ming Zhao and said.

Ming Zhao, however, shook his head like a rattle: "No, no, how can I use your money? I can buy it when I have enough money."

The shopkeeper interjected, "Hey, if someone knows the value of this fine inkstone, they won't keep it if they meet the seller."

Anyone with experience in the business world knows that this is a marketing tactic, but Ming Zhao obviously didn't know it. He looked a little frustrated, which he himself didn't even realize.

"You won't stay?" Chen Tang was just teasing the child, but he didn't intend to take him seriously and make him unable to sleep or eat. He turned around and looked at the shopkeeper and said.

The shopkeeper laughed awkwardly, "There's no such rule in our business."

"That's right." Chen Tang clearly agreed. Lin Su stepped forward and said, "Your shop is valued at 660 taels of silver. How about I buy it for double that?"

"Ah, this..." The shopkeeper looked at the silver that Lin Su placed on the table and was obviously a little confused. The next moment, he smiled and said, "Sir, you are obviously an expert in this business. I won't bargain with you. Deal."

Chen Tang and Lin Su exchanged a glance, the smile in their eyes unconsciously deepening. He flung open his folding fan and said, "This way you can keep it, Xiao Mingzhao. When you have enough money one day, you can come back and buy it."

Not only was the shop owner stunned, but even Xiao Mingzhao's eyes widened in surprise: "No merit, no reward... This is really inappropriate."

Yun Hui sighed and said, "In that case, please pack it up for me. I'll just lend it to you today. You can return it later when you have enough money."

Ming Zhao nodded repeatedly, with obvious joy in his eyes.

The clerk and the shopkeeper were busy. Chen Tang covered his mouth with a folding fan and leaned in front of Lin Su and said, "I didn't expect Zi Yu to be so unromantic. I wasted all my time."

"Thank you for your hard work, husband." Lin Su said with a smile.

He didn't think Yun Hui had acted inappropriately, but rather that the child's innocent heart was truly precious.

After all, not everyone is like Master Shen, who has received countless gifts since childhood.

Young Master Shen could eat delicacies from land and sea, as well as street stalls. He would walk along the road and buy whatever he saw. It was common for him to buy out the entire shop when he was overwhelmed by the choices.

Ming Zhao was surprised by the generosity of the money as he held the candied haws given by Chen Tang. He had never seen so much money spent in his life. But he was even more surprised by the subtle intimacy between the two. Although they were husband and wife, some of their actions were really embarrassing.

Although the customs of the dynasty were not introverted, they had not yet reached this level. He watched them vaguely and felt extremely envious. However, the adults who were always polite did not comment on the actions of the two.

"Don't you think this is rude, sir?" Ming Zhao asked in a low voice.

Yun Hui smiled and said, "It's okay. Jing Chen has always been thick-skinned. If he doesn't feel it's rude, why should we feel it's rude?"

Ming Zhao: "..."

Sir, you clearly taught me not to say, see, or listen to anything inappropriate.

Chen Tang heard everything he said clearly, but when he turned around he could only give Yun Hui a provocative look.
