Chapter 70 Cousin, Your Cousin Will Help You Manage the Family Business 9
Hua Wenhao was tempted.
This trip could earn you four, five, or six times your initial investment.
Moreover, if he goes too, he can exchange five taels of silver for thirty taels of silver.
One thousand five hundred taels can be turned into nine thousand taels of silver.
If he doesn't go, he won't be able to continue trading with the shopkeeper for the rest of the time.
We still need to find other shops to cooperate with.
In fact, he had already secretly looked for a shop, hoping to find one with a higher purchase price so that he could earn more money, or at least have his business continue if problems arose here.
Unfortunately, I couldn't find any of them.
It's not that they don't like his stuff, it's that they drive the price down so low that he doesn't make any profit. If they can't agree on a price, there's nothing more to say.
Give it a try.
Hua Wenhao thought he had to take a gamble.
But he didn't dare to invest all his savings.
He left himself five hundred taels.
That way, if the business fails or other problems arise, he will still have five hundred taels to start over.
Taking one thousand taels and earning six thousand taels is a decent income.
Hua Wenhao rushed to Yucheng and bought a thousand taels of jewelry.
Upon learning the news, Jiang Qingyun discovered that Hua Wenhao had a backup plan for her.
That's quite cautious.
It's okay. After tasting success this time, he will only regret not investing everything and holding back, which directly led to a huge loss of money.
Next time, he will be eager to bet everything he has.
Everything along the way was planned.
These bodyguards were hired by Jiang Qingyun to escort a shipment of goods to the capital.
This time, Jiang Qingyun is really going to the capital to make money.
Next time might be different.
The group arrived in the capital city without incident.
Hua Wenhao used to think that Jiangnan was very lively.
I've only just realized how much more prosperous the capital city is.
Prices here are indeed high.
Hua Wenhao followed the shopkeeper to visit several jewelry shops, where jewelry under fifty taels was rarely seen.
He bought jewelry worth hundreds of taels of silver without hesitation.
The jewelry at the roadside stalls costs ten taels of silver.
The difference is truly enormous.
The two went to several shops and sold off their jewelry little by little.
Jewelry in the capital tends to be more ornate and elegant.
Jiangnan region tends to favor girls from modest families.
So their jewelry was very good, and the shopkeeper didn't buy it all at once, but only a few pieces to test the waters.
Although the quantity is small, the price is still quite considerable.
Anyway, Hua Wenhao was quite satisfied.
Because he brought very little jewelry, it was quickly sold out.
The shopkeeper, however, brought a lot with him.
At this moment, Hua Wenhao only saw silver flowing in.
The shopkeeper really made a fortune.
Hua Wenhao looked at the shopkeeper's earnings and then thought about his own earnings, realizing they were less than a fraction of the shopkeeper's.
"How was it? You made quite a bit of money this time, didn't you? You have to seize this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to make a fortune."
I'll let you know if there's another opportunity in the future.
On the way back, the shopkeeper was all smiles.
They returned with the bodyguards.
Hua Wenhao was increasingly regretful at this point, wishing he had known he could have earned even more.
Next time, he will definitely give it his all.
When Hua Wenhao returned to Jiangnan and received the news from his family that Hua Yuan had drowned, he was somewhat stunned.
Hua Yuan fell into the water and died?
Hua Wenhao rushed home.
I ran to Hua Yuan's house, but it was empty.
He ran to his mother's yard again.
The mother cried terribly.
"Mother, what happened? My sister fell into the water and drowned. What happened?"
"Wenhao, how cruel your father is!" Juanniang was even more heartbroken when she saw her son return and thought of her daughter.
Hua Wenhao felt a chill run down his spine. Could it be that his father had killed his sister?
“Yuan’er was so young, and after what happened, the master actually sent her to a nunnery and told everyone that Yuan’er had drowned.”
Hua Wenhao became more and more confused as he listened. Was his sister dead or alive? What had happened?
Through Juan Niang's fragmented and incoherent words, Hua Wenhao pieced together the cause and effect of the incident.
After he left, Hua Yuan, with her mother's daily complaints, developed a deep hatred for Chen Yan.
It was Chenyan who harmed her mother, her brother, and her.
Under Shen Yan's instigation, Father reduced the household's expenses.
This directly affected Hua Yuan.
She can't even afford a single piece of clothing with her monthly salary now, how is she supposed to make a living?
She protested.
The protest was invalid.
Everyone was dissatisfied, but Dad still insisted on doing things his own way.
Hua Yuan couldn't bear such a hard life.
Hua Yuan thought that since her mother had given her brother so much money, she should give her some too.
Then he went to find his mother.
The mother cried every day, crying for herself and for her son.
Hua Yuan also came to see her mother every day for the money.
There happened to be a lantern festival that day, so her mother gave Hua Yuan some money so she could have some fun.
Hua Yuan happily went out with the silver.
As a result, Hua Yuan never returned.
A group of bandits appeared at the lantern festival and kidnapped Hua Yuan.
Hua Yuan was discovered in a dilapidated temple.
Hua Yuan was tortured beyond recognition and became completely abnormal.
However, after Hua Yuan was found, her father wanted to kick her out.
He said that Hua Yuan had disgraced him, that he didn't have this daughter, and that she should atone for her sins with her death.
Mother begged desperately, but Father couldn't change his mind.
In the end, it was only after her mother knelt down and begged Shenyan, and Shenyan persuaded her father, that Huayuan was able to live.
However, Hua Yuan was sent to a nunnery, and it was said to the outside world that Hua Yuan had drowned.
Her mother was still locked in the courtyard by her father, who forbade her from visiting Hua Yuan.
"Wenhao, go check on Yuan'er. What will she do all by herself? It's all that Chenyan's fault. Maybe she's the one who brought those bandits."
Why did the bandits target Yuan'er instead of others?
Yuan'er is still so young, how dare they do that? They are worse than beasts.
Wenhao, you must be careful of that Chenyan; she's going to kill us all.
"Mother, don't worry, your son is doing very well in business now. Your son has already earned six thousand taels."
Once my son earns more money, he'll open a shop and buy a house so we can bring his mother to live with us.
My younger sister and son also came along.
"My good son, I knew you were the smartest."
Even in business, you're very capable. Mother has some silver here; you can have it all.
You should make good money so you can bring your mother over later.
There is no place for us here anymore.
Juanniang handed over all her money to Hua Wenhao.
She had given up on this place.
She just wanted to leave immediately and move out.
"Mother, don't worry, I'll take you out soon. I'm going to see my sister."
Hua Wenhao went to the nunnery to visit his sister.
Hua Yuan stood there blankly, curled up in a corner.
As Hua Wenhao approached, he began shouting and gesticulating wildly, yelling, "Don't come any closer! Don't come any closer!"
Hua Wenhao felt heartbroken seeing his younger sister looking so dazed and confused.
He left some money, bought some things, asked them to take care of his younger sister, and then left.
He needs to seize the time to make more money.
