Xie Dong and his wife stayed at the Sang family's house for a long time before saying goodbye and leaving.
After the two left, it was getting late. After telling their aunt, Sangshen and Buling went upstairs together.
After returning to their room and washing up, the couple sat side by side on the headboard and chatted.
"Lingling, how much money do we have left?" Sangshen suddenly asked.
When money was mentioned, Buling was wide awake. She sat up straight and asked, "What do you want to do?" She looked very wary.
You can covet anything from her, but you can't covet her money.
Sangshen, of course, knew her character well, and tugged at her hair: "Little money-grubber!"
Bling kicked him: "Get lost."
Sangshen awkwardly withdrew her hand. "Alright, alright, it's Dongzi. He wants to quit his job and start a business, and he's asking me for money."
"You agreed?"
"No, no, no." Sangshen shook her head quickly: "I said I need to discuss it with you before I can make a decision."
After hearing this, Bling lay back down: "That's more like it."
Sangshen put his arm around his wife: "So, Lingling, shall we borrow it?"
"No."
This time it was Sang Shen's turn to be surprised. He sat up straight and looked at Bu Ling: "Ling Ling?"
“But we can invest,” Bling said.
Borrowing money is a one-off deal, but investing is not.
Based on Xie Dong's personality alone, Bu Ling felt this stock was worth investing in.
"Investment?"
“Yes, it’s about investing.” Bu Ling nodded. “Borrowing money is too unethical. Xie Dong has a good relationship with us. He’s in trouble, so we have to do our best to help him.”
Mulberry was speechless and asked honestly, "Are we really not taking advantage of someone's misfortune?"
Bu Ling glared at him and said, "Why say such harsh things? We're clearly just helping out."
"So you don't have to pay back the money you borrowed? But you don't have to pay back the money you invested in." Bu Lingli said weakly.
Mulberry: "Lingling, you've got your abacus beads flying right into my face."
"Who am I doing all this for?" Bling rolled her eyes at him.
Mulberry leaned down and pecked her on the lips: "A reward."
"Pooh!"
After the laughter subsided, we got back to the main topic: "Stop joking around, what do you think?"
Mulberry stroked her chin: "I think it's okay."
He had confidence in Xie Dong, but then again, "Wasn't this attempt to curry favor a bit too obvious?"
Bu Ling glanced at him and said, "Is face more important or money?"
Sangshen wanted to say that face was important, but seeing the threatening look in Bling's eyes, she wisely said, "Money is important."
"That settles it."
"Then I'll go talk to Dongzi tomorrow?" Sangzhen tentatively looked at Buling: "How much money can we contribute as an investment?"
Instead of answering, Bu Ling asked, "How much money did Xie Dong borrow from us?"
"fifty thousand."
“Then let’s invest 100,000 yuan.” Bu Ling was very bold.
Over the years, her income from the black market for mulberries, along with her income from off-season vegetables and soap, has added up to a considerable sum.
"So much?" Sang Shen was truly astonished; his Lingling was actually willing to bleed so much.
Then came the question: "Does our family have that much money?"
"Don't be impulsive, our family still has to make a living," Sangshen advised.
Bu Ling waved his hand: "You don't need to worry about that, you won't go hungry."
Seeing her demeanor, Sang Shen knew that their family had much more savings than he had thought. He tentatively asked, "So, how much money do we actually have?"
"You don't need to worry about that." Bu Ling thought to herself, "But can I tell you?"
Having made a fool of herself, Sangshen stopped pursuing this dangerous topic.
At this moment, Bling made a move.
She waved her hand, and a stack of money appeared on the bed: "This is 100,000 yuan. Bring the money with you when you go tomorrow; it will show more sincerity."
Mulberry blinked: "Okay."
He got out of bed, grabbed a bag, put the money in it, and placed it under his pillow.
Seeing so much money all of a sudden made him feel a little unreal; he needed to use it as a pillow to fall asleep.
Bling scoffed, "Petty."
Sangshen retorted seriously, "You don't understand."
He didn't have a portable magic cave, and if he lost such a large sum of money, he had no doubt that his Lingling would tear him apart.
"Whatever makes you happy."
After discussing the investment, Bu Ling asked the most important question: "So, what exactly does Xie Dong want to do?"
"He contacted his friends in Gu County, wanting to form a trucking fleet to transport goods from the south to the north and vice versa," Sangzhen summarized, recalling what Xie Dong had told him before.
"As expected of Xie Dong," Bu Ling exclaimed.
That's a really discerning eye.
Even fifty years from now, this business will still be extremely profitable.
Not to mention in this era where demand exceeds supply.
Xie Dong truly lives up to his name; he seems to have been born to be a businessman.
This gave Bu Ling more confidence: "I suddenly felt that 100,000 yuan was a bit too little."
Sangzhen almost knelt down before his wife: "Lingling, calm down!"
"If we lose the money, our whole family will have to rely on our parents."
"What's there to be afraid of? Life is a gamble!" Bu Ling said with soaring spirit.
Sangshen pulled her hand down: "Keep your voice down, Grandpa and the others are asleep."
"What we're saying is, we don't have anything else, our main focus is trust," Bu Ling continued to brainwash Sang Shen.
"So, how much money do we actually have?" Sangshen asked.
This shut Bling up.
He lay down and pulled the covers over himself: "Time to sleep."
Sangshen curled her lips into a smile, lay down, moved closer to her wife, and closed her eyes.
Just as he was about to fall asleep, Bling was still unwilling to give up: "Can't you really throw more?"
Mulberry: ...
