Financial freedom starts with cracked apps.

Sign a contract?
Inside the convenience store, seeing Lin Shen's smiling face, Li Hao's expression froze again.

So straightforward?

You think you can just take 200,000 like that?

Does this mean it's not money to him?
Otherwise, Li Hao wouldn't know how to understand why Lin Shen was so decisive, especially since he had only glanced at the contract.

But since the other party was so agreeable, I couldn't hesitate too much.

So Li Hao politely guided Lin Shen to the place where to sign the contract, but suddenly he realized that his step seemed unnecessary.

Because Lin Shenqian was extremely skilled at handling contracts, it seemed he had repeated this process several times before.

Even the font looks incredibly elegant and stylish, something a young person couldn't possibly achieve.

Is he doing very well in Shanghai?

Li Hao's mind stirred slightly.

After so many years of hard work and struggle in Beijing, he has long since transformed from a naive young man into the shrewd and mature adult he is today.

Interpersonal relationships and personal connections became the primary considerations for him whenever he went out, and there were many of them.

Therefore, when Li Hao realized that Lin Shen seemed to be doing quite well in Shanghai, his first reaction was not envy or jealousy, but rather whether he should take this opportunity to build a closer relationship, as it might come in handy in the future.

So after Lin Shen signed the document, Li Hao smiled, shook hands with him, and subtly inquired about the situation.

"The subsequent replacement of the property ownership certificate or business license will take some time to process. I wonder how many days you plan to stay in your hometown?"

"About ten days or so."

Lin Shen chuckled softly.

"This year, because of the Mid-Autumn Festival, it's going to be a bit longer."

"Your company has great benefits, you can give us so many days off."

After finally getting to the key information, Li Hao couldn't wait to find out.

"May I ask which company you work for? You must be in senior management, right?"

"It certainly belongs to that category."

Lin Shen, being a shrewd person, naturally understood why Li Hao asked about his work situation, but he did not give a direct answer.

At this moment, it was his father who suddenly returned and answered for Lin Shen.

"Son, don't you know what he does? He's the top manager in Shennan! The big boss!"

Is Shen Nan in charge?
Li Hao was momentarily stunned.

Because his father had bought Shennan dog food before, he had some understanding of this dog food brand.

It became a sensation a few months ago and has successfully entered the top ten domestic pet brands.

It is said that dozens of offline stores have already opened in Shanghai, and the response has been very positive.

They primarily target the lower-tier market, offering lower prices not only for their physical stores compared to other pet stores, but also for various pet foods.

The price was so low that Li Hao even suspected that the dog food was defective; otherwise, how could they make money at such a low price?

But Li Hao was quite surprised when his father bought some dog food for the family dog, which even cured his old habit of not eating much.

After all, at such a low price, you can get a product with higher quality than ordinary dog ​​food. With such cost-effectiveness, how could it not become a hit!

Anyway, Li Hao actually had a pretty good impression of this company.

But who would have thought that its founder and chairman would be this young man in front of us?
This shocked Li Hao, who immediately inquired whether it was true or not.

"Are you really the chairman of Shennan?"

"That's it."

Lin Shen waved his hand casually.

"But that's not the point. The point is acquiring the shops."

"Really!"

Li Hao was overjoyed and seemed to no longer care about the small shop sale contract he had just signed. Instead, he shifted the focus of the conversation to Lin Shen.

He quickly shook hands with Lin Shen again, and this time he refused to let go, his face beaming with a bright smile.

"You're amazing! I feel like you're not even as old as me, right? To have achieved this much at such a young age is truly impressive."

"Um, I work in the computer field. I'm currently in Beijing helping a small company update and fix bugs on their app. I wonder if there will be a chance for me to become your subordinate in the future..."

Li Hao introduced himself and took the initiative to find out his thoughts, which surprised Lin Shen with his frankness.

After all, social etiquette is generally ambiguous, and people wouldn't be so proactive unless they were truly in a hurry.

However, the reason why Li Hao was so proactive and expectant was mainly because he had high hopes for the development prospects of Shennan Company.

In just a few months, they achieved this level of success, becoming a sensation not only in the Douyin pet community but also opening dozens of offline stores.

With this scale, the future looks incredibly bright!

Therefore, Li Hao was eager to join Shennan; even if that didn't work out, there were always other options.

He wasn't afraid of losing face; ordinary people have done things like suffering for the sake of saving face countless times.

Only by abandoning pride can one live a better life.

Life doesn't have that many spectators anyway.

Therefore, Lin Shen was also moved by Li Hao's so-called "courage" and nodded with a smile.

"Of course, we at Shennan will set up a branch in Beijing later. We can have a meal and chat then."

"no problem!"

Li Hao excitedly shook hands with Lin Shen and continued to discuss the details of the convenience store and everyday matters with him.

After the conversation had nearly ended, Li Hao stood up and smiled.

"So this afternoon I'll cancel my business license and food business permit. Then, Brother Shen, you can take your ID card and the contract we signed to the market supervision office to re-register."

"If needed, I can accompany you to the tobacco bureau to apply for a tobacco license."

"I see."

Lin Shen smiled and nodded, chatted with Li Hao for a few more minutes, and then said goodbye and went home.

As a result, Lin Shen discovered that his parents had already gone to the restaurant.

This left Lin Shen speechless.

Don't they take a car?

"Let's go too."

Lin Shen smiled, revealing Qin Yuenan's slender waist as he gave her instructions.

"My relatives will be having lunch with me, so there might be a lot of people."

"fine."

Qin Yuennan was already adept at handling such situations.

After all, meeting Lin Shen's parents was the most nerve-wracking thing for her; the other relatives were secondary.

However, Qin Yuennan still felt it necessary to clarify some household matters, so she asked softly.

Are you on good terms with your mother's relatives?

"generally."

Lin Shen got into the driver's seat, while Qin Yuennan seemed to smell the gossip, so she sat in the passenger seat and listened quietly to his family's story.

"I have a pretty good relationship with my uncle and aunt, but my cousin from my aunt's family didn't go to school much and entered the workforce early, which may have led him to pick up some bad habits from society, such as being a bit snobbish."

"He has worked as a taxi driver, a food deliveryman, and a day laborer. He has never had a stable job, so he has never found a wife."

"However, in the past few years, he and his friends have been working in the Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shanghai area. I heard they're doing quite well and have made a lot of money, but..."

Lin Shen hesitated, which suddenly aroused Qin Yuenan's curiosity.

"What's wrong? Did he make his money through illegitimate means?"

"Smart, you truly are my capable wife."

Lin Shen smiled and pinched Qin Yuennan's cheek before continuing his conversation.

"He seems to be a loan shark, it's not a legitimate way to make money, but my aunt doesn't really care about him, so she just lets him be."

"why?"

Qin Yuennan asked again out of curiosity.

"Do you have a second cousin, but your aunt doesn't have to worry about him?" "How do you know everything?"

Lin Shen was genuinely surprised.

He knew that Qin Yuennan was quite perceptive when it came to interpersonal relationships, even though she was aloof and not good at talking to people.

However, she also has an extremely keen eye for observation in this regard.

But Lin Shen really didn't expect that Qin Yuenan could figure out his family's relationships with just a few words.

This is a bit too scary!
Lin Shen sighed inwardly, then continued answering Qin Yuennan's questions.

"But my second cousin is great. Although he didn't go to university, he went to a technical school after graduating from high school and learned welding. He currently works for a state-owned enterprise and married my sister-in-law. He has a happy life."

"Those two brothers are truly two extremes."

Qin Yuennan complained, seemingly enjoying listening to this kind of everyday gossip.

"What about your uncle's children?"

"She is my cousin."

Lin Shen said with a smile.

“I have a very good relationship with my cousin because we are close in age. When we were in school, she was a year ahead of me and we went to the same school.”

"So that means I'm older than your sister?"

Qin Yuenan was immediately disappointed, which left Lin Shen speechless.

"Sister Nan, why do you keep bringing up age? Age doesn't matter at all. Even if you're older than her, you still have to call her 'sister'."

"I know that."

Qin Yuennan sighed softly and then remarked.

“I don’t have as many brothers as you. My mother’s side of the family only has one uncle and my cousin.”

“He works in Beijing. If there’s a chance, I’ll introduce you to him.”

"it is good."

After saying that, Lin Shen drove Qin Yuennan to the location for their family lunch.

Jushunyuan.

This is a relatively high-end hotel. The first floor is used for weddings and various banquets, and there are even three different styles of wedding halls.

The second floor is the main hall, and the three floors above are private rooms. You can take an elevator to go up and down the floors.

Its interior decoration is quite solemn, mainly in European style.

This might be related to the fact that the weddings it hosts are all Western-style weddings.

However, the dishes are mainly Shandong cuisine, which is the top of the eight major cuisines, making it a unique combination of the two.

It was 11 a.m.

The Jinhua Hall on the fourth floor was gradually filled with people.

Lin Shen's maternal grandfather sat in the main seat, and to his left, the chubby man was his aunt's husband, his maternal uncle, his father, and his maternal uncle.

To his right are his aunt, his mother, and his sister-in-law.

It can be said that everyone was present, just waiting for the main character to arrive.

"I heard Xiao Shen is back?"

The eldest uncle walked towards Lin Qinghai in the hall, and Lin Qinghai smiled smugly.

"Yes, he did come back. Since you were all home, we thought we'd have a get-together."

"Really? That's good."

Suddenly, the younger uncle looked curiously towards the doorway.

"But where is my nephew?"

"He has something to do this morning, he'll be here soon."

Lin Qinghai glanced at Zhao Nuanmei, who was not far away.

"Honey, ask Xiao Shen when he's coming. We're waiting for him."

"it is good."

Zhao Nuanmei nodded, then used her phone to call Lin Shen.

Then a cell phone rang in the hallway.

~A clock that travels through time~

Upon hearing the commotion, everyone looked towards the door, and then saw Lin Shen walking slowly with a smile.

"Sorry I was late, something came up."

what?
When they saw Lin Shen's, everyone present was stunned, their faces filled with astonishment and disbelief.

Is he Lin Shen?

After all, the last time Lin Shen had a meal with his relatives was during the Chinese New Year last year.

At that time, Lin Shen had become overweight and hunched over due to long-term work pressure, and looked listless.

But in just over half a year, Lin Shen's appearance underwent a dramatic change.

His hairstyle has changed from a unkempt bowl cut to a very cool American-style spiky look, which fully reveals his distinctive facial features.

In fact, Lin Shen's facial features were originally very three-dimensional, but due to his previous obesity, his face also became a bit chubby.

However, now that he has exercised and lost weight, his figure appears particularly well-proportioned, and his face has become more angular.

Especially his slender jawline, which completely transformed him from a handsome, delicate-looking man, made him appear several years younger!

His physique has also changed from being overweight to being well-proportioned and strong. You can even vaguely see his inverted triangle-shaped upper body, which makes him look particularly robust and powerful.

You can tell at a glance that you go to the gym regularly.

Of course, these are not the main points; the main point is the outfit.

Lin Shen used to dress casually, without any particular preference or choice, and the colors were mostly dark, which made him look more dignified and mature.

Nowadays, Lin Shen dresses in light blue and brownish-gray, making her look particularly young and giving her a completely new look.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that she has undergone a complete transformation.

Therefore, almost everyone looked surprised and asked.

"Are you Lin Shen?"

"Uncle, don't you even recognize your own nephew?"

Lin Shen greeted his elders one by one, and then his cousin patted him hard on the shoulder.

"Wow, Xiao Shen, you've changed a lot! You've become so handsome! How did you do that?"

"Maybe being in love makes people more handsome."

Lin Shen touched his nose sheepishly, then smiled and pulled Qin Yuennan, who was standing at the door, into the house and introduced her to everyone.

"Let me introduce you. This is my girlfriend, Qin Yuennan."

Hello.

Qin Yuennan bowed slightly to the crowd with neither arrogance nor servility, then tucked her hair behind her ear with her hand, displaying a rather elegant demeanor.

Apart from Lin Shen's parents, everyone else on the battlefield showed an even more surprised expression than when they first saw Lin Shen.

His cousins, in particular, were all dumbfounded.

What a beautiful girl!

After all, Qin Yuennan's model is just too supermodel-like.

Even in Shanghai, a city teeming with top beauties, she would stand out, let alone in a small third- or fourth-tier county town in the north.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say she's the most beautiful woman in the whole county.

In addition, Qin Yuennan's figure, with her supermodel-like long legs, makes it almost impossible to look away.

In addition, her slender waist and hip curves are made even more perfect by the shaping effect of the jeans.

Such a beautiful girl, with such a tall and sexy figure, would make anyone who sees her compliment her.

And you're telling me she's Lin Shen's girlfriend?!

Lin Shen's relatives and friends all expressed their admiration and envy from the bottom of their hearts. (End of this chapter)
