Chapter 174: Quit While You're at It



Fu Hongxing frowned, sighed, and then said, "What I mean is, don't make it too big."

It's not so bad to keep some odds and ends locally, at least you can still hold on to them. But if you get caught outside, it will be much more difficult to keep your life.

"The nail that sticks out gets hammered down. Besides, you've already made quite a bit of money from your side jobs over the years; knowing when to quit while you're ahead is the best policy."

He only got involved with them halfway through their relationship. If Fang Meng and Liu Weidong hadn't been so loyal, he wouldn't have agreed to get involved.

Back then, Fang Meng and Liu Weidong went to the border area to do business, but they never expected that the people there would double-cross them and almost take their lives.

It was Liu Weidong who risked his life to save Fang Meng and escape together. However, at that time, they were penniless and had no identification to prove their identities.

If they hadn't met Fu Hongxing, learned that the two of them were from Siping City, and then casually saved them.

They were given money for travel and food so they could go home.

At that time, Fang Meng and Liu Weidong told Fu Hongxing their home address in Siping City.

Although Fu Hongxing had noted down their address, he still believed that he was unlikely to go back.

Unexpectedly, when I came back this time, I ran into the two of them while I was getting bricks and tiles.

Fu Hongxing didn't know at first that Fang Meng was doing freelance work selling goods in Shanghai, but later she found out and asked Fang Meng to help her bring some malted milk powder for the twins.

This decision was made out of necessity.

After all, the family was very poor and needed so many things.

Moreover, there are some things that even if he has money, he may not be able to buy.

As for Fang Meng's business, he wouldn't touch it at all; at most, he would ask them to bring some things.

But now, after he told Liu Weidong his plans.

Liu Weidong's surprised expression made his heart sink.

If you do these things on a small scale, people won't take you seriously, but at least you'll be safe.

If you go too far, something bad will happen sooner or later.

However, having known each other for a while, he left behind the words of advice that should have been offered.

Whether they will listen to his advice or not, only they themselves know.

After all, we are all adults and have to be responsible for our own actions.

Hearing Fu Hongxing's firm words, Liu Weidong wanted to say something, but Fang Meng stopped him.

"Okay, I'll consider what you said."

Seeing Fang Meng nod, but with a look of hesitation on his face and in his eyes, Fu Hongxing knew that they wouldn't listen to his advice.

He glanced at the monkey who stood silently to the side, saw his troubled expression, went up and patted him on the shoulder, then looked at the others.

"Come find me if you need anything."

After saying that, he strode outside.

"Mengzi, why won't you let me say it?"

Liu Weidong angrily yelled at Fang Meng.

"What did he say?"

That makes sense. The money we've earned in the past few years is enough to support the old man for at least several more years.

It's time to cut our losses while we're ahead; if we let the business get too big, it'll be hard to manage later.

Although Fang Meng said this to Liu Weidong, he was actually struggling with his own feelings.

People's hearts are always like this: they originally thought they would stop once they had enough money to eat and live on.

But now, he just wants to live a better life; his child was only born not long ago.

He hoped his children wouldn't grow up in hardship like he did.

He hopes that Xiaobao will always be the apple of his eye.

But all of this requires money, money, money!
