After a few days of observation and inquiry, Shen Yutang fell in love with a family living in a thatched hut on the street.
The family has both old and young people. It is said that the elder one is a missionary who came to Shanghai in the early years.
Later, the United States experienced the Great Depression, and the family could no longer make a living in the United States, so they had no choice but to move to Shanghai.
What followed was the Battle of Shanghai, which plunged the Jackwell family, who had just moved to Shanghai, into unemployment and poverty again.
As the pillar of the family, Jack Will is willing to do any hard work.
Carrying bags and moving goods at the Dian docks, working as a temporary translator for a few days at the Dian trading company, or attracting sporadic customers for foreign companies...
No matter if it was selling physical labor or doing some simple writing and calculations, as long as the job was paid, Jack Will would gladly accept the temporary job.
As long as he could earn some money to buy medicine and medical treatment for the elderly in his family and buy some bread to feed his hungry children, he would not be picky about any job.
And Jack Will's wife Marina also seems to be a kind and family-oriented woman.
When her husband works hard outside all day and earns some money, she will save it carefully.
With only the minimum amount of money every day, I prepare meals for the family, feed the children and take care of the elderly at home!
Although the Jackwell family lived in poverty, Chen Yutang could see that their life in Shanghai was also very warm.
After choosing the Jackwill family, Shen Yutang disguised herself as a middle-aged businessman one evening.
When the family was having dinner, he would sneak outside their thatched hut.
The neighborhood where the Jackwill family lived was mostly inhabited by poor white people.
They rarely see wealthy people coming here dressed in suits and carrying expensive suitcases.
Seeing Shen Yutang, who was dressed like a rich person, standing at the door of their house without stopping.
The Jackwill family stopped eating and turned to look at her.
Among them, Jack Will's youngest daughter immediately ran to Shen Yutang curiously.
In his immature and unskilled Shanghainese, he asked her for some candy.
"Rich uncle, can you give my daughter some candy?"
Shen Yutang looked at the blonde and blue-eyed girl, who looked like a doll, and she also liked her.
He touched her little head lovingly, then took out a one-dollar bill from his pocket and handed it to the little girl.
Jack Will's little daughter didn't know what the green banknote was, so she ran to give it to her mother.
Her mother Marina saw that it was a one-dollar bill and felt that Shen Yutang gave the child too much.
She immediately handed the dollar to her husband, hoping that he would return the dollar to Shen Yutang.
Jack Will took the one-dollar bill, came to Chen Yutang, and handed it back with a smile.
"Boss, the child is ignorant. You gave too much. We can't accept this money."
Seeing that the Jackwill family was poor but had a strong character, Shen Yutang felt more satisfied with them.
Without taking the one-dollar bill from Jack Will's hand, Shen Yutang carried the suitcase containing the money and went straight into the thatched hut where their family lived.
Marina saw the wealthy businessman come into their house and immediately stood up to greet him.
She had a vague feeling that the big boss came to their house and must have something to tell them to do.
Sure enough, the next moment Shen Yutang opened the suitcase he was carrying, and inside was neatly arranged at least 10,000 US dollars in bills.
"Here's $10,000. Do you want the money?!"
"With this money, your family won't have to worry about making a living anymore, and you won't have to live in this thatched hut anymore. You can live the life you want!"
"But, this money is not so easy to take. I need your Jack Will to do something for me, otherwise I will kill your whole family!"
In addition to the whole box of money, Shen Yutang took out a Browning pistol from behind and slammed it on the table.
Her actions immediately scared the Jackwill family!
