Chapter 20 The Other Price



Mo Yougan was taken aback by Mo Yuan's words, and it took him a while to understand.

He couldn't help but feel secretly pleased; having someone to talk to made things easier, and money was a simple matter.

"Okay, I'll add another hundred, how about two hundred yuan? That's a lot. In our rural areas, many people have never seen two hundred yuan in their entire lives. Even for factory workers, that's half a year's salary. Am I being sincere, Uncle?"

"Okay! Uncle, it'll be done as you say! Two hundred it is. Spiced fish, fish soup, and the secret recipe for fried meatballs, three in total, six hundred yuan in total!"

"Okay, okay! I knew you were right... What? Six hundred yuan?! Mo Yuan, are you crazy?"

Mo Yougan never expected that Mo Yuan would be so greedy as to ask for six hundred yuan right off the bat!

But then I thought about it again, and it didn't seem too much. Even if it was more than ten yuan a day, let alone more!

If you earn 300 a month, you can earn it back in two months. So, it seems like it's not a bad deal to spend 600 yuan to buy a skill that's guaranteed to make money!

However, he couldn't bear to take out six hundred yuan all at once!

As long as you shamelessly pester Mo Yuan to plead poverty and act pitiful, while also trying to get close to him...

Unexpectedly, Mo Yuan insisted that he was only offering a discount because of the rural area; otherwise, he wouldn't have agreed to teach.

Why can't you earn that money yourself?!

Seeing that Mo Yuan wouldn't budge, Mo Yougan had no choice but to say that he would have to think about it, as Mo Yuan was asking for too much!

But then he suddenly asked, "Mo Yuan, if I spend six hundred yuan, does that mean I can buy it outright, and you won't be allowed to set up a stall here selling these three things anymore?"

Mo Yuan hadn't expected this old guy to have some business acumen, but not much!

Given that the market economy is not yet fully open, it is already quite remarkable that he understands these business principles!

"Are you kidding me! If you want to monopolize this business, that's a different price!"

Mo Yougan waved his hand and said boldly, "Then I'll give you a thousand yuan! From now on, you're not allowed to sell fish soup, meatball soup, or pickled fish here!"

Mo Yuan refused to back down, "You want to learn how to make 600? If you want to sell it yourself, add another 1,000 yuan! We won't sell here anymore. If all else fails, we can sell some steamed buns and flatbreads. Although we won't make much, it'll be enough to eat!"

After listening, Mo Yougan's eyes darted around, then he suddenly deflated.

"Hehe, this is a big deal, I need to go home and discuss it. Besides, I can't raise that much money in a short time. I'll think about it for a couple more days!"

On the way back, both Gouzi and Second Sister were a little unhappy.

But this business is far away, so they can't really say anything!

Mo Yuan naturally saw through their little scheme, especially his second sister's expression, which anyone could tell from her face!

"What, you think I made the decision on my own? Second sister, just say what you want to say."

Hongxia said angrily, "Why should I say that? If you have something to say, go home and tell your parents!"

After saying that, I ignored him!

Sure enough, after returning home, my second sister told the family everything.

Mo Yuan was immediately condemned by his entire family. His eldest brother and sister-in-law, Chen Qiaoyun, who usually didn't express their opinions, both said that Mo Yuan was wrong!

Not to mention Yu Xiu'e, who was sharp-tongued and almost poked Mo Yuan's scalp with her fingers!

Mo Youshan, however, remained silent, quietly washing his pipe.

After a long silence, he exhaled a puff of white mist before saying, "As the old saying goes, 'A thousand taels of gold cannot buy the Way.' In principle, this profitable business is hard to sell no matter how much money you offer, especially since your business is so good now. You should be able to earn this much in a year, right? Mo Yuan, you don't seem like a fool. Are you doing this on purpose?"

Mo Yuan was surprised that his own father had seen through everything, and he couldn't help but give his father a thumbs up!

"Old ginger is spicier! Dad, I knew you were the smartest one in our family. You can see right through my little schemes!"

"Stop flattering me! Tell me your reasons. If you can't convince everyone, I won't agree to this either. Don't forget, our two families have a feud! Back in the day, your grandfather..."

Seeing that Mo Youshan was about to use the old almanac to teach him a lesson, Mo Yuan quickly interrupted!

"Dad! If we didn't have a grudge, I wouldn't have sold it to him. I'd be making money off him! Don't worry, I know what I'm doing!"

"Good that you understand! But I don't think this is very likely. Can his family really come up with 1,600 yuan?!"

Mo Youshan's words struck a chord with Mo Yuan. He knew the other party had some wealth, but he hadn't expected Mo Yougan to not refuse 1,600 yuan outright.

That means there's room for maneuver here; their family can at least scrape together this much money!

This further confirmed Mo Yuan's suspicions: there was definitely something fishy going on in their family. Otherwise, how could they be so rich when there was little income in the countryside?

Although Mo Yuan had some ulterior motives in making a quick buck from them,

The main reason is that I don't want his relationship with Lin Xue to drag on for too long; let's get them married first!

As for other ways to make money, there are plenty of them. With this 1,600 yuan, you can afford to have a wedding!

They'll live a very glamorous life, and still have a considerable sum of money left as start-up capital!

Moreover, Mo Yuan had other plans in mind.

Although it seems that Mo Yougan didn't suffer any losses.

They've monopolized the restaurants at the entrance; they can definitely make their money back in a year!

But Mo Yuan sneered inwardly.

It's your skill to make back your principal and interest in a year!

But if I can help your family earn that much money as you wish, then I, as a reborn person, will have failed!

Moreover, although we can no longer sell fish soup and meatball soup,

I never said I wouldn't sell anything else!

Once I've got this money in hand, I can successfully marry Lin Xue.

I'll have another little surprise for you!

I will repay you tenfold for everything you did to me!
