Returning to 84, hunting for wealth, one person feeding three families.

"Boss Qin, what are you doing here?"

Upon hearing the commotion, Ye Chen immediately turned around, looked at the familiar face in front of him, and couldn't help but ask.

It turned out that the person who appeared at this moment was Boss Qin, who had dealt with Ye Chen before.

The other party also promised Ye Chen that if he could successfully take over Factory Street by the end of the year, they could jointly develop the medicinal herb market.

Ye Chen had inquired about Boss Qin's identity before, and only knew that the other party had considerable influence in the provincial capital, the kind of person who could turn the world upside down with a flick of his wrist!

But I never expected that my trip to the provincial capital would lead to our chance encounter.

"I'm just here to visit an old friend, Lao Luo. I heard you were exonerated. Shouldn't you be happy to be out? What's going on here now?"

Boss Qin walked into the courtyard and, seeing the group of servants making a big fuss, smiled and looked at Luo Guanzhong to ease the tension.

Luo Guanzhong was taken aback for a moment, then asked Boss Qin, "Brother Qin, do you know Ye Chen?"

"Haha, this young man is quite to my liking. He even told me about a way to make money last time, but I don't know if it will actually work!"

Boss Qin smiled, then turned and patted Ye Chen on the shoulder halfway through his sentence.

"Ye Chen, I listened to you and invested nearly 100,000 yuan this time. If this money doesn't come back by the end of the year, you'll have to compensate me!"

What was it that Ye Chen couldn't understand?

At this moment, Boss Qin said that he was obviously trying to save face by mentioning the 100,000 yuan investment in front of outsiders. He was clearly trying to make himself look good!

Ye Chen patted his chest confidently and said, "Boss Qin, don't worry, if you don't earn 300,000 by then, I'll make up the difference!"

Upon hearing this, everyone present gasped in shock.

Ye Chen's words were really too much!

In the 1980s, even someone with ten thousand yuan in assets could walk around the streets with an air of superiority.

But Ye Chen is just a country boy, yet he talks about making 300,000 yuan in profit. Who gave him that right?

"Some people are just too boastful, they don't even care about hurting themselves, all they do is brag, they don't know what restraint is!"

Zhang Shaoyang sneered and took the opportunity to belittle him.

Luo Guanzhong shook his head, came to his senses, and directly pressed Boss Qin for an answer.

"Brother Qin, what exactly is this method of making money that Ye Chen mentioned?"

"This is our secret. If you want to know, Ye Chen has to give his permission first. Otherwise, if others find out and benefit from it, that would be my fault!"

Boss Qin directly refused, his words implying the nature of the relationship between the two parties.

In my eyes, Ye Chen is much closer!

You are just an outsider!

If it were any other person, Luo Guanzhong would have been furious if they had dared to refuse him like that.

But the Qin boss in front of us has an incredible background!

Even before he was sent to the countryside for criticism and struggle sessions, Luo Guanzhong had been doing business with Boss Qin. It's no exaggeration to say that he was practically Boss Qin's underling!

The criticism and exile delayed Luo Guanzhong's life for several years, and his family's fortunes were no longer what they used to be.

But Boss Qin has been doing quite well, and over the years, the gap between the two has only widened!

Because of this relationship, Luo Guanzhong was not angry at all, but instead began to re-examine Ye Chen.

The country boy I saw in my eyes seems to be no ordinary person at all!

The fact that Boss Qin recognized Ye Chen so much, even going so far as to publicly reveal their identities, speaks volumes about Ye Chen's influence.

In comparison, Zhang Shaoyang only relied on the blessings of his ancestors, and was far inferior to Ye Chen!

In an instant, Luo Guanzhong's heart had already tipped. When he looked back at Zhang Shaoyang, his eyes showed a hint of impatience, and he even directly ordered him to leave.

"Young Master Zhang, as you can see, I have distinguished guests at home today, and it's really inconvenient for me to entertain them. Please take your leave now, and I'll apologize to you at your home another day!"

"Uncle, this..."

How could Zhang Shaoyang not understand Luo Guanzhong's meaning?

But Ye Chen was supposed to leave before, so why did Luo Guanzhong's attitude change so quickly after just a few words from Boss Qin?

Zhang Shaoyang didn't understand the power behind Boss Qin, and in the end, he could only blame Ye Chen for everything!

Ye Chen must have used some method that I don't understand!

That guy is despicable and shameless, only good at underhanded tricks. Today, we absolutely cannot let him succeed again!

"Uncle Ye, listen to my advice. Ye Chen is cunning and treacherous; he might be up to something!"

"And this Boss Qin, he might just be someone Ye Chen hired to put on an act. Don't believe Ye Chen just because of a few words from an outsider!"

"Enough!" Luo Guanzhong's face darkened, and a surge of anger rose within him.

He was able to start his business from scratch entirely thanks to Boss Qin, yet Zhang Shaoyang dared to speak ill of Boss Qin to his face.

Isn't this blatantly an attempt to sow discord between the two?

"Young Master Zhang, as I said, I don't have time to entertain you today. Someone, see him out!"

Enraged, Luo Guanzhong waved his hand, and a group of servants immediately grabbed Zhang Shaoyang and were about to send him out of the courtyard.

"etc!"

At the crucial moment, Boss Qin spoke up to stop him, walking up to Zhang Shaoyang with a smile.

"You must be Zhang Hongjun's grandson? You're a good-looking young man, but your brain isn't quite up to par!"

"Go back and tell your grandfather to keep his own family in check. They dare to say whatever they want outside; aren't they afraid someone'll cut their tongue out one day!"

"I……"

When Boss Qin bluntly revealed his grandfather's name, Zhang Shaoyang finally panicked.

My grandfather was a county magistrate before. Even in the provincial capital, there are very few people who dare to call him by his given name!

But judging from Boss Qin's tone, there was not a hint of politeness, and it even carried a hint of lecturing. Just what kind of background did the other party have?

Thinking back on what he had said, Zhang Shaoyang felt a pang of regret.

I acted impulsively just now and have clearly offended Boss Qin!

It's all Ye Chen's fault. If that guy hadn't been so shameless, I wouldn't have lost my composure!

I've lost face this time, I must find a way to get revenge!

"I was wrong, Uncle Qin, I'll go back to my grandfather and apologize right away!"

In front of Boss Qin, Zhang Shaoyang didn't dare to say a word. He quickly lowered his head and admitted his mistake before hurriedly walking out of the courtyard.

But when he had walked a hundred meters away, his face suddenly darkened, and he kicked the stone under his feet hard!

"Damn it, Ye Chen, why do you have to go against me?"

"She's just a woman, why do you have to compete with me?"

"No way! This is the provincial capital, my Zhang family's territory. What right does a country bumpkin like you have to act so arrogantly here?"

"Ye Chen, I'll make you pay! Just you wait!"
