After returning home, Ling Chuan replaced the cold tea in her cup with warm honey water, and then started talking about business.

"I calculated with Uncle Zhi during the day. The initial cost of registering a company, renting a store, and decorating it will be at least 20,000 yuan. If we get the agency rights later, the agency fee plus the cost of stocking the goods will be conservatively no less than 50,000 yuan. Add in the expenses for travel, accommodation, and entertainment, and we will have to prepare at least 75,000 to 80,000 yuan."

Yun Mo thought about it and asked him, "Did Uncle Zhi say how much money he could come up with?"

"Uncle Zhi said he could only come up with 20,000 yuan at most. He has some savings, and he can borrow about 10,000 yuan by mortgaging his house. He can also borrow from other relatives and friends, so it should be no problem to get 20,000 yuan."

80,000 minus 20,000 means there is still a gap of 60,000.

Yun Mo counted the money she had on hand. She had nearly 20,000 in cash, and still needed 40,000. It seemed she had to find a way to take some of the collections in the space out to exchange for money.

If she had known that she would travel through time to this era, she should have stockpiled more gold bars and gold bricks.

The collections in her space are mostly antique paintings, calligraphy and jades. Each of these items can be said to be a unique piece. When one is sold, there is one less piece. Even if you have money in the future, you may not be able to buy it back.

Well, in the face of survival, no matter how precious the antiques are, they are just external possessions.

Ling Chuan had no idea which of his wife's collection she was secretly thinking about selling. He only saw that she was silent and her expression kept changing, so he thought she was having trouble with money.

In fact, after calculating that it would take such a huge amount of money to make pagers, he began to back out.

Not to mention that his wife couldn't come up with so much money, even if she could, he didn't want to take risks with his wife's money.

"Momo, I've thought about it carefully. The investment in pagers is too high. We can't afford it right now. Why don't we do some other business first, and then consider doing this when we have enough funds on hand."

Yun Mo thought about it and felt that this was an acceptable approach.

According to the information she had, it would take another one or two years for pagers to become popular. She had previously considered seizing the opportunity, but if the investment cost was too high and the timeline was too long, the rate of return would be greatly reduced, making it seem useless.

After all, there are many businesses that can be done now. If you can make 10,000 yuan by investing 10,000 yuan, compared to making 10,000 yuan by investing 80,000 yuan, you will definitely choose the former.

"Have you thought of what to do?"

"I want to temporarily sell jewelry with my eldest brother. I went to see my eldest brother this afternoon. He has sold nearly 100 pieces of jewelry in the past few days and earned 25 yuan. On average, he made a net profit of 8 yuan a day."

A net profit of 8 yuan a day is indeed a lot, much better than she expected.

The smooth trading of trinkets is also due to Yun Mo's vision and taste. She has the advantage of living another life, and was born into a wealthy family in her previous life, so her aesthetic taste is naturally better than that of people of this era.

After reviewing her homework, Fu Ruman went downstairs to the kitchen to heat herself a cup of milk, ready to drink it before going to sleep. However, just as the milk was heated, she bumped head-on into Fu Weian who had just returned home.

"Uncle."

Fu Weian looked at the milk in her hand and asked casually, "Is today's study over?"

"Um."

Fu Ruman hesitated for a moment and briefly told the story of Yun Mo causing a scene at school today.

Seeing the uneasiness on his niece's face, Fu Weian smiled and comforted her: "Don't worry, she is just the adopted daughter of the Yun family. Even the Yun family doesn't care about her anymore. She can't cause any trouble. Manman, just study with peace of mind and don't pay attention to other people's opinions."

"I understand, uncle."

Maybe it was because she had a nap in the evening, Yun Mo lay in bed for a long time without feeling sleepy at all. Her mind was in a mess, with one thought after another. Finally, she simply put on her clothes, took two test papers and lay on the desk to write.

Ling Chuan in the other room also didn't sleep. At first he was thinking about business matters, but then he heard the noise in his wife's room. He became worried and was even more afraid to sleep.

Time passed by little by little, and when I finished two sets of test papers, it was already 2 o'clock in the middle of the night.

Yun Mo yawned, put away the test papers and prepared to go to bed, but there was a knock on the door.

When Yun Mo opened the door and saw Ling Chuan outside, she was a little surprised.

"Well, I can't sleep, Momo, I'll heat up some milk for you, drink it and then go to sleep."

Yun Mo took the milk, and the aroma of milk mixed with the sweet fragrance of osmanthus honey entered her nose. The coldness in her heart seemed to be melted by the warmth in the cup.

"Thanks."

"Then you should go to bed early. I will warm up breakfast for you in the pot tomorrow."

The man looked indifferent, but he was actually very attentive. He had already figured out her preferences: she liked to go to bed late at night and sleep in the morning.

Yun Mo immediately became polite and said, "Then help me take Dabai and Erbai out for a walk tomorrow morning."

"Okay, anything else?"

Yun Mo thought about it, said wait a minute, then turned back into the house and counted out two hundred yuan from the safe.

"Since you have decided to follow Big Brother and start the jewelry business, then do it well. Use this money to buy a bicycle, and keep the rest for yourself."

Ling Chuan refused to take her money, "Momo, I can figure out how to do business myself."

Yun Mo looked at him and said, "I have all your money. What are you going to do?"

It is extremely embarrassing for any man to be exposed by his wife that he is penniless, and a tough guy like Ling Chuan is no exception.

Uncomfortableness appeared on his stern face, "I plan to borrow it from Uncle Zhi."

"Why borrow? We have money at home. Every time you borrow money from outsiders, you owe them a favor. You might as well owe me one. After all, we are one family."

After saying that, Yun Mo stuffed the money into the man's hand without any hesitation.

Ling Chuan did not refuse this time. He just held the money tightly and said to her seriously, "Momo, don't worry, I will earn all the money back as soon as possible."

"Well, you should go to bed early. I will go to bed too. Good night."

Good night.

Looking at the closed door, Ling Chuan said silently.

In the past, he thought that a man using his wife’s money was a sign of incompetence, but he was touched by his wife’s words “we’re one of us”.

It's not about money, but his wife's care, trust, and expectations for him.

In the classroom of Class 2, Grade 3 of Nanming High School, the students in the classroom were talking about the empty seat that originally belonged to Yun Mo.

"Yun Mo was really fired?"

"Of course I'm lying. I haven't seen him since yesterday. He's packed up everything. He's definitely not coming."

"But why fire her?"

"Why else? She cheated in the unified examination, not only did she suffer, but she also brought trouble to the school and became a laughing stock."

"But isn't there no evidence that she cheated?"

"What evidence do you need? With her grades, how could she be ranked eighth in the city?"
