The system only arrives when you're old? Then let's create a super-rich family!

Yunzhong City, Yunzhong University.

In the dim grove, Qin Ziyang, Qin Huirong (the third brother), and Zhou Hongyi's son, who is also Qin Zheng's grandson, were sitting on a small stone bench, their phones displaying a chat window with Wang Man, the mother of his girlfriend Yang Xue.

[Auntie, hello. Xue'er told me you wanted to see me?]

Wang Man: [Ziyang, right? Auntie doesn't have anything else to say, but I heard you graduated, so I wanted to ask about your future plans, so I can give my daughter Xue'er some advice.]

Here comes the test from his mother-in-law. Qin Ziyang's breath hitched, and his body stiffened with tension.

He recalled the eighteen tips for dealing with one's mother-in-law that he had read online, and picked a suitable reply.

Auntie, I promise I will treat Xue'er well from now on, do everything for her, and never let her suffer in the slightest.

The message was sent out and received a reply almost instantly.

Wang Man: [I heard you found a job? How much is the salary?]

Qin Ziyang was slightly taken aback. If he had a choice, he wouldn't want to answer this question.

【4500. 】

This is his salary after he becomes a full-time employee in three months; he didn't even dare to say that his internship salary was only 3000.

Wang Man: [4500? Can you even support yourself? My daughter will starve if she lives with you!]

[Auntie, 4500 is your starting salary after you've just been promoted to a permanent position. It will increase to 6000 after six months.]

Qin Ziyang quickly replied, afraid that Wang Man's next sentence would be, "I will not allow my daughter to be with you."

Yang Xue, recognized as one of the four most beautiful girls at Yunzhong University, is not only beautiful but also speaks very gently, attracting a lot of male admirers.

Qin Ziyang went to great lengths to finally get Yang Xue to agree to their relationship during their junior year of college, thus establishing them as boyfriend and girlfriend.

He didn't want to lose Yang Xue.

But Wang Man was clearly going to help break up the couple.

Wang Man: [6000 yuan? You expect my daughter to marry someone like you? Do you know how outstanding my daughter is? With her looks and future education, she could easily marry into a wealthy family!]

When Qin Ziyang saw Wang Man say that she wanted Yang Xue to marry someone else, he panicked and hurriedly replied.

Auntie, I will work hard. I'm still young, and I'll earn more money in the future! Please give me a chance to prove myself!

Wang Man: [Don't say I'm making things difficult for you. I'll give you a chance. If you want to marry my Xue'er, there are two conditions.]

Auntie, please tell me.

Wang Man: [Next month, they'll bring an engagement banquet of 380,000 yuan to my house. Next year, after Xue'er finishes her postgraduate entrance exam, we'll have the wedding, with a dowry of 880,000 yuan.]

Qin Ziyang looked around, somewhat bewildered.

Engagement dowry? Wedding dowry?

Before he could delve deeper, his thoughts were drawn to the two numbers that followed.

It's about 1.4 million. Even if his family sold the house, they still wouldn't be able to raise that much money.

Even if his salary is 6,000, he would only earn 72,000 a year if he didn't eat or drink. Without relying on his family, it would take him 20 years to save enough to marry Yang Xue.

After a moment of silence, Qin Ziyang mustered his courage and replied, filled with anticipation.

Auntie, my family can't afford that much money. Could you lower the price a bit? Or could you give me a few more years?

Wang Man: [How many years will I wait for you? My Xue'er is already 23. How many years of youth does a woman have? Is she going to waste her prime waiting for you? What will happen to my Xue'er if you change your mind?]

Wang Man: [If you don't have money, stop dreaming of being a toad trying to eat swan meat.]

After the conversation ended, Qin Ziyang smiled bitterly. Did she and Yang Xue really have no chance to be together?

Just as I was feeling disappointed, my phone rang. It was a message from Yang Xue.

Yang Xue: [Ziyang, that's just how my mom talks, don't blame her, she's only thinking of me.]

Yang Xue: [I just persuaded my mom that if you can come up with 380,000 yuan for the engagement dowry next month, we still have a chance. We can save up the remaining 880,000 yuan slowly.]

Qin Ziyang felt a surge of warmth in his heart when he saw that Yang Xue was willing to argue with her parents for her sake.

But the thought of having to come up with 380,000 next month turned that warmth into bitterness.

He thought that having found a job, he and Yang Xue would gradually move towards a brighter future.

But who would have thought that his mother-in-law would present him with a huge problem.

On his way back to his dorm, Qin Ziyang was absent-minded, thinking about how to raise 380,000 yuan next month, or rather, whether he should raise the money at all.

As soon as he entered the dormitory, he saw his three roommates sitting on a bed, shirtless, engrossed in reading on their laptops, occasionally making clicking noises.

"You're back? Did you kiss today?" my roommate teased.

"Yang Xue went home, so I went out for a walk," Qin Ziyang replied casually, then leaned closer and asked curiously, "What are you doing?"

"Ziyang, aren't you checking your phone?" another roommate asked enviously, pointing at the impressive luxury car in the video.

"A high-profile billionaire has emerged in Jiangnan Province. He bought a hundred luxury cars and another one worth 110 or 200 million yuan, just to escort him back to Longhu Manor. You know Longhu Manor, right? It's a super manor covering 25 hectares and priced at 1 billion yuan! Now everyone online is speculating about who this tycoon is."

As he spoke, he clicked on another video, "Ziyang, look, this is the video of that tycoon buying a car at the 4S store. He's so domineering, he didn't even blink when he swiped his card."

Qin Ziyang glanced at it, and after recognizing the person in the video, he subconsciously murmured, "This person looks like my grandfather? No, it's just that he looks like him."

He knew it couldn't be his grandfather. His grandfather lived at his uncle's house, and he knew what his uncle's family was like.

They already have a lot of debt, and they're tightening their belts to make ends meet. How could they possibly have anything to do with a net worth of tens of billions or a billion-dollar estate?

"If only you were my grandpa, none of us brothers would have to worry about finding jobs. We could just go work at your family's company, how wonderful!"

My roommate, recalling the company she interviewed with today, couldn't help but complain, "That idiot company I interviewed with today only offered me two days off a month and twelve hours a day. Guess how much they paid me?"

"How much?" the other two asked curiously. They had already graduated and had to leave the dormitory by the end of the month. They were still staying at school now only to see if there were any good companies recruiting on campus. After all, campus recruitment and social recruitment are not the same level of difficulty, and they should try to go through campus recruitment if possible.

Hearing about the outrageous working hours and the company offering only two days off, and glancing at their roommate's disapproving expression, both of them couldn't help but smile.

"3000." My roommate said, rolling his eyes, then said speechlessly, "That's it. The HR person even told me that they received a lot of resumes. I just want to get into their company. I have to compete with others in terms of ability. They only hire the top ten outstanding applicants. It's like I'm begging to get in."

"Yunzhong University is a provincial key university, how come it's so bad? They're letting this kind of trashy company in to recruit."

"By the way, Ziyang, I heard you found a job? How much is the monthly salary?"

Qin Ziyang smiled sheepishly, "Internship salary is 3000, full-time salary is 4500. Four days off per month, working from 10 am to 10 pm."

"It's alright, better than the companies I interviewed with." The others noticed the unease in Qin Ziyang's tone and wisely stopped talking about that topic, continuing their discussion about the tycoon.

Qin Ziyang glanced at the person in the video a few more times.

If only it were his grandfather.

That way he won't have to worry about money.
