Courtyard houses: Those who are capable are rewarded, and many children bring many blessings.

"And there's more... how should I put it? This guy got special approval from above, which just came down today. They're going to build a five-star hotel on Chang'an Avenue, just two or three hundred meters from the Yanjing Hotel. It'll be Yanjing's first five-star hotel."

The key point isn't that, it's this location, it has the hotel's name on it, it was all personally selected by that person...

"Ah! Does my brother-in-law carry that much weight with that person?"

"It doesn't matter if it's a black cat or a white cat. As long as it catches mice, it's a good cat. Our brother-in-law has a lot of US dollars, at one point more than the country's foreign exchange reserves. Just think about what kind of status that is."

I hadn't talked to her about these things much before. My sister-in-law only knew that her brother-in-law's family was wealthy, but she never imagined they were this rich...

Bai Hongjun added, "We've only just started reform and opening up, and every industry needs foreign exchange to buy advanced technology and equipment. Earning money domestically is nothing special; being able to earn foreign exchange is the real skill, and our brother-in-law has that real skill."

Now the country not only doesn't restrict his domestic investment, but also strongly encourages it. Just you wait and see, there will definitely be more and more big projects in the future...

When Niu Dazhuang came to Bai Hongyan and Bai Hongmin's side, he saw that Bai Hongyan was lecturing the three brothers.

"You three brothers, stop wasting your days and get to work."

"Auntie, the meager salary I earn at work isn't even enough for a decent meal at a restaurant. This job is so boring, I'm not going," Bai Chenyang retorted stubbornly.

Niu Chengrun and Niu Chengze, the two brothers, secretly gave him a thumbs up.

Bai Hongyan was furious. She stood up and pointed her index finger at Bai Chenyang's forehead: "If you're not going to work, what are you doing? Do you think you can fly to the moon? Don't even think about getting a penny from me in the future."

"If you don't want it, then don't. The three of us brothers all have hands and feet, how could we starve to death!" Bai Chenyang got more and more excited as he spoke.

"Ahem..." Niu Dazhuang reminded the others that he, the head of the family, had returned.

Bai Chenyang turned around and saw Niu Dazhuang. He immediately cowered. This cheap uncle of his really dared to hit people.

He lowered his head and remained silent. He nudged Niu Chengrun, who was standing next to him, with his foot.

Niu Chengrun pretended not to know anything.

Bai Chenyang remembered that when he was a teenager, he and his two younger cousins ​​went to Longtan Lake to play in the water, and were caught red-handed by his aunt and uncle.

After being whipped twice by the willow branch, Bai Chenyang said, "You're not my dad, so why are you telling me what to do?"

These words left a shadow on him during his childhood. He was dragged home by this cheap uncle and, in front of all his siblings, his buttocks were whipped with willow branches for more than a week.

The worst part is the pain from being whipped by those willow branches; it's excruciating, and you have to sleep on your stomach at night.

Fortunately, this uncle-in-law wasn't home much, otherwise he would have been beaten even more.

When giving money, he really meant it. Bai Chenyang both liked and feared this uncle.

I was traumatized by this since I was a child, and even now that I'm an adult, I'm still afraid of my uncle.

"Dad, Dad, you're back!"

"Uncle, you're back!"

Niu Dazhuang sat down in the main seat with a stern face: "Xiao Yang, I just came from your dad's place. He said you three brothers are plotting something again?"

Faced with Niu Dazhuang, Bai Chenyang didn't dare to step forward and turned to look at the two brothers.

"Xiao Run, you speak." Seeing that none of the three brothers would speak, Niu Dazhuang had no choice but to call on them.

"We were thinking that since we're all working now, we don't want to ask our families for money anymore, so we're trying to earn some extra cash ourselves..."

Get to the point!

"Dad, it's not like we're the ones doing this; they're the ones doing it."

"Get to the point." Niu Dazhuang's expression became even more displeased.

"We're not breaking the law; we're just connecting upstream and downstream resources, and we take a reasonable cut in the process..."

"How many times have you done this? How much money did each of you get?"

"We were all capable, and after expenses, each of us only received about ten thousand yuan."

Niu Dazhuang slammed his hand on the table: "How much was divided up? And how much was spent?"

"I...I'll go get the account books..."

Niu Dazhuang was so angry he laughed: "You guys are quite professional, you even have account books."

Niu Chengze quickly returned to his room, took out the account book, and handed it to Niu Dazhuang.

Niu Dazhuang looked grim and quickly flipped through the documents: "Tomorrow, take the account book, make up for the expenses, go to the Industry and Commerce Bureau to turn yourself in, be polite, and we'll accept the penalty."

"No, Dad, they all do it this way, so why can't we?" Niu Chengrun was still unconvinced.

"You make it sound so nice, but what resources do you use to connect with, and why do you take a cut? Do you really think I don't know anything? This is reselling licenses, speculation and profiteering. If you want to make money, just tell me, I'll give you some advice."

I want every penny you earn to be clean, so that you can withstand scrutiny when you become successful. If your first fortune wasn't earned honestly, that kind of shady history will forever be a stain on your record!

Niu Dazhuang's first pot of gold came from an illegitimate source, and he didn't want his next generation to follow the same path. His family wasn't without means, so why tarnish his own reputation?

Bai Chenyang suddenly said, "Uncle, could you please talk to my dad for me? I don't want to work anymore. I want to make big money with you from now on."

"Being self-employed isn't anything shameful these days. Okay, I'll tell your parents that you three brothers go to the Industry and Commerce Bureau tomorrow..."

After this was over, Niu Dazhuang looked much better and lit a cigarette for himself: "Do you want to help your mother with the cooking?"

The three brothers shook their heads in unison.

After thinking for a while, Niu Dazhuang said, "I'm a little unsure about this policy right now. You should go and ask the relevant departments after the New Year if individuals can be allowed to engage in real estate development."

"Cheng Run, Cheng Ze, you two have thought this through. If you don't come and familiarize yourselves with the business now, when I don't want to work here anymore, I'll hand the company over to Cheng Tao. Don't be jealous then."

Bai Hongyan felt uneasy when she saw that neither of her two sons wanted to work with her.

"Cheng Tao is our younger brother, so let him have it. Why should we be envious? We can make a name for ourselves."

"Alright, you two brothers have ambition. I'll pretend I didn't say that."

"Alright, that's all, get lost!"

The three brothers felt as if they had been granted a pardon and ran out.

When the three brothers got to the courtyard, they looked at each other, and Bai Chenyang shouted towards the main house, "Auntie, we won't be staying here tonight. We'll definitely be going back to the Industry and Commerce Bureau tomorrow." After shouting, the three brothers ran off in a flash.

It's not that the three brothers didn't want to stay at home, it's just that the male head of the household was back, and there would definitely be trouble at night. The three brothers are all grown men, and they don't have the thick skin of Niu Dazhuang.

After the three brothers left, Bai Hongmin, who lived in the backyard, came over to ask what they wanted to eat for dinner after finishing tutoring her child's homework.

"Since no one wants to cook, I just go to a restaurant and order a few dishes."

"Okay, go watch for a while, the children are hungry."
