From that day on, Han Fei noticed that the fourth son was always carrying thick law books: the Civil Code, the Criminal Code, the Company Law, International Law...
He was watching very intently; I wonder if he could understand it at such a young age.
Could this young fourth brother really have gone from a heartless lawyer to a righteous prosecutor?
Han Fei had mixed feelings.
...
"Are we really not going to make steamed buns anymore?" Old Xu asked dejectedly.
"Anyway, our goal isn't to keep selling steamed buns, so let's just take a few days off."
"I always felt that you weren't being cowardly; you were just waiting for the right opportunity to unleash your ultimate move."
"uh-huh!"
"Old Han, I used to think you were a fox, cunning and treacherous."
Han Fei stared wide-eyed.
Old Xu chuckled, "It doesn't look like a fox anymore."
Han Fei felt that the old man was up to no good.
"You're like a venomous snake, treacherous and cunning. You may seem easy to bully, but you can deliver a fatal blow at any moment!"
Han Fei sneered: "Do you think I don't know about some people secretly trading stocks?"
Old Xu looked terrified: "Old Han, let's talk this over. I'm just itching to invest. I only put in 1,000 yuan every month, not a penny more! Actually, I'm really good at stock trading, but I encountered a stock market crash at the time, and the overall environment was bad."
"I know."
Han Fei had also been observing for a long time. When Old Xu was watching the market, he would also observe Old Xu's trading techniques. He was indeed an expert.
A monthly expense of 1,000 is nothing to worry about, since Old Xu doesn't smoke, drink, or travel, and he doesn't spend money on anything on a daily basis.
"Actually, if you tell your son the truth about this, he will understand you."
"No, no, no, that won't do!"
"You didn't steal or rob, so what's there to hide?"
Old Xu sighed: "It was because I made a fortune in the stock market that I did wrong things and ruined my family. My son hates stock trading very much."
"Old Han, I shouldn't have called you a viper. I'll treat you to dinner to apologize! Please don't tell my son about my stock trading, please!"
"Okay, you wash the dishes from lunch first, and then treat us to dinner tonight."
"Okay! It's a deal! But the dishes will have to be washed by Little Six."
"He washes the dishes?"
Old Xu scratched his head sheepishly: "I'm quite tired from making steamed buns and rolling twisted rolls every day, so I don't really want to wash the dishes. Little Six offered to help me share the burden, but I have to pay a little."
"You want me to pay you?"
"It's not much, 10 yuan for washing dishes once."
Han Fei narrowed his eyes. He had forgotten about Little Six, the future ruthless capitalist.
Just as they were talking about the sixth child, the doorbell rang.
Old Xu went to open the door and saw a large box delivered by courier. He poked his head in and asked, "Old Han, did you order something big online?"
"No."
The deliveryman said, "It's a dishwasher."
Just then, the sixth child ran out of the room, rushed to the door, and held up his little hand: "I bought it! I'm here to sign for it!"
The deliveryman, surprised that the customer was a child, asked with a smile, "Your name is Han Chengliu?"
"Yes! It's me!"
After the deliveryman left, the little one struggled to open the box.
Old Xu lowered his voice: "Really not going to help?"
Han Fei crossed his arms and shook his head.
The box was opened, and Old Man Xu and Han Fei could see what was inside—it was indeed a dishwasher!
Old Xu asked in surprise, "Why did you buy a dishwasher?"
Han Chengliu raised his chin: "The dishwasher is mine. If you want me to wash your dishes, you still have to pay! Pay the original price!"
Old Xu asked, "How much does this dishwasher cost?"
Han Chengliu lovingly stroked the dishwasher, as if it were a hen that lays golden eggs: "Not expensive, 1000!"
"Let me calculate how much I paid you for selling steamed buns during this period. I was too busy to do anything else, so I had you wash the dishes."
"Don't bother calculating, it's exactly 1000."
"So you used the money I gave you to buy a dishwasher? And you're planning to keep making money off me?"
Han Chengliu nodded his little head.
"Hey! How can you be so cunning!"
Old Xu looked at Han Fei: "Little Six is most like you. He'll definitely be a businessman someday!"
Han Fei's expression was serious: "Xiao Liu, come with me, let's talk."
Han Chengliu frowned slightly and said in a childish voice, "What? I haven't tried the dishwasher yet, I don't know if it works well!"
"Do you know how dangerous that was? Why didn't you tell an adult when you shopped online?!"
"Hmph! It's none of your business!"
Little Six ran back to the house and slammed the door shut.
Small in stature, but with a big temper!
Han Fei: "..."
Old Xu chuckled: "Oh my, Old Han, look at him, didn't I tell you he's like you? Even his temper is the same!"
Han Fei narrowed his dangerous eyes: "I have a bad temper?"
"No, no, no, hehe, Lao Han, you have a very good temper!"
Han Fei walked to the door of Xiao Lao Liu's room and knocked on it: "Aren't you going to try the dishwasher? What are you doing hiding in your room?"
The sixth brother angrily opened the door: "You're all watching and not helping, and I can't lift it, how am I supposed to try! I'm not trying!"
Do you know why Grandpa wanted to talk to you?
"Speak your mind, or I'm closing down!"
"Grandpa's not home today, the delivery has arrived, will you open the door?"
Han Chengliu's eyes flickered, and he said in a muffled voice, "I won't drive it."
You are lying.
"I didn't."
"Your eyes are sparkling, why don't you look at me when you answer?"
"If Grandpa isn't here and the delivery arrives, and you, a little kid, go to open the door, do you know how dangerous it would be if the delivery person was a bad guy? Have you forgotten what happened to your second sister and fifth brother who were kidnapped?"
"Nothing happened, so don't lecture me! I'm not going to talk to you!"
As he spoke, the little one tried to close the door and escape again.
Han Fei pressed down on the door, and it swung open completely.
Han Chengliu angrily said, "You're a bad person, you're going to hit me!"
Han Fei sighed: "When have I ever hit you? Little Six, you don't seem to be so wary of outsiders, so why are you so hostile towards your grandfather?"
Han Fei really didn't understand why Xiao Wu, who was a few months older than Xiao Lao Liu, and Xiao Qi, who was younger than Xiao Lao Liu, both called him grandpa and liked to cling to him and act spoiled.
But even though the sixth child is at the age when he is easiest to coax, he is very wary of him, and even quite resistant to him.
Little Six pursed his lips, clenched his little fists, turned around, and stomped his feet hard.
If the door won't close, he won't close it!
The sixth brother lay down on the bed, picked up the quilt, covered himself up, and huddled under the covers, disappearing from sight.
Han Fei: "..."
Is this kid trying to use a Cold War strategy?
How long can you hide under the covers?
Han Fei wasn't in a hurry. He pulled up a chair and sat down on the edge of the bed, watching quietly to see when the boy would peek out!
It's just a contest of endurance; he doesn't believe he can't beat a little kid.
Time passed slowly, and the sound of Little Six snoring could be heard from under the covers.
Han Fei: "..."
He laughed in exasperation, realizing he was confused himself. Why was he getting worked up over a five-year-old kid?
Han Fei went out and took the dishwasher out of the box, then connected the hose.
Old Xu chuckled and put the bowl from lunch inside: "Let me try it out and see if it works!"
"Remember to give him the money."
“I’ll give him 1,000 yuan and he can buy the dishwasher.”
Han Fei shook his head: "He won't sell it to you. He bought the dishwasher just to earn 20 yuan every day at noon and in the evening."
Old Xu curled his lip: "He won't have to do anything from now on, and he can earn 600 every month! That's seven or eight thousand a year! Old Han, he's only five years old, how could he have so much money? You have to keep an eye on him!"
Han Fei shook his head: "I can't control that."
That brat is too stubborn and cunning; he's difficult to deal with!
"Why would a little kid like him need to earn so much money?" Old Xu asked curiously.
Han Fei narrowed his eyes: "They probably want to do bigger business."
Old Xu was shocked: "You mean, from the very beginning, he was making money by washing dishes so he could buy a dishwasher and easily make a steady stream of money? Now that he's started making money with the dishwasher, he's started saving money to plan something else?"
Han Fei nodded: "That should be the case."
"So what's his next business deal?"
"I have no idea."
Old Xu sighed, "Old Han, the fifth son looks most like you, while the sixth son's mind is most like yours—he's got a head full of business acumen; he'll be a big businessman someday!"
Han Fei's lips twitched, and he thought to himself: This is no big deal!
From selling eggs and onions to selling airplanes and building rockets, and even secretly selling organs, what can't he do business with?
This little sixth brother only had money in his mind. No, what mattered more to him than money was Xiao Qi! But they were separated, and when he finally found Xiao Qi, she was already... gone.
Han Fei sighed. In this life, Xiao Qi will be by his side. Xiao Lao Liu might become an entrepreneur, but for Xiao Qi's sake, he probably won't lose his conscience and make money through dishonest means.
Han Chengliu was peering into the kitchen when Old Man Xu caught him red-handed: "Little Six!"
Han Chengliu quickly turned his head back, but it was too late.
A pair of feet appeared in front of him. He looked up and saw Han Fei looking at him with a serious face: "Sixth Brother, Seventh Brother is also at home. Your own safety is not important, but what about Seventh Brother? What if the delivery person kidnaps Seventh Brother?"
A thunderous roar echoed in Han Chengliu's mind!
He clenched his little fists helplessly, held back for a long time, and finally murmured softly, "I know I was wrong... I won't, I won't buy things recklessly again..."
“It’s okay to buy things, just tell Grandpa in advance, or don’t open the door when the delivery arrives, let him leave it at the door.”
Han Chengliu nodded and pursed his lips: "I understand."
Han Fei breathed a sigh of relief: Sure enough, as long as Xiao Qi is involved, even a stubborn donkey will bow down.
