county seat.

Private room in a nightclub.

Boss Zheng frowned and complained to Wang Jian'an, who was standing to the side.

"Brother Wang, we went through a lot of trouble to get you out of this mess. You promised you wouldn't let me suffer any losses, so isn't it time to show your appreciation?"

It turns out that after Wang Jian'an went to prison, it was Boss Zheng who was pulling strings behind the scenes. Especially after Liu Zhen and the others disappeared last time, Boss Zheng made a tough decision and invested all the money he had in the case.

Boss Zheng now has a bunch of clueless people under his control, and as the beneficiary of this scheme, Wang Jian'an naturally has to take responsibility!

"Don't worry, I've arranged everything!"

Seeing this, Wang Jian'an offered a word of comfort, then clapped his hands lightly. The next second, a henchman walked into the private room with a suitcase.

In front of Boss Zheng, Wang Jian'an opened the briefcase directly, revealing stacks of 10,000 yuan bills.

Wang Jian'an then smiled and explained, "Brother, this is my sincerity!"

"I mortgaged this nightclub and got a 20 yuan loan from the bank. With that money, making a comeback is a piece of cake!"

"Here's 5. Take it first; consider it payment for the expenses you incurred helping me with the previous arrangements. This time, we're determined to get those shops on Factory Street!"

As Wang Jian'an finished speaking, a fierce glint flashed in his eyes.

Old Wang, standing to the side, frowned slightly and reminded him, "Old Wang, don't forget those shops are now in Ye Chen's hands!"

"I've already inquired; this kid's just putting on an act!"

Wang Jian'an sneered and explained, "We've already sent people to clear things up. Ye Chen's kid was just playing tricks. He claimed to have signed transfer contracts with those bosses, but he didn't actually pay anything!"

Faced with Boss Zheng's curious gaze, Wang Jian'an explained the specific details of the transaction between the two parties.

Then he continued, "In the end, as long as that kid hasn't paid the transfer fee, we still have a chance. I've already sent people to find out where those bosses live. Once we visit them and offer better terms than Ye Chen, they'll naturally know how to choose!"

"And I have a backup plan. If all else fails, I'll just set fire to all the shops on Factory Street!"

"If I can't have it, no one else can either. I'm willing to fight to the death!"

……

In the days that followed.

Ye Chen traveled all over the country, spending over 100,000 yuan of his working capital to purchase and replace them with clivia.

After completing all this, Ye Chen then found a construction team to continue the work.

With some free time, I decided to cook every day and spend time with the three women.

"People say a real man stands tall and upright, Ye Chen, you've completely fallen!"

Tian Cong would complain from time to time, but despite saying that, he would still show up on time every day at mealtimes.

In his words, Ye Chen's cooking skills were far superior to those of those women. Ye Chen was going to do something big at the end of the year, and every meal he ate would be one less he could afford, so he naturally couldn't miss it.

"Brother Tian Cong, you're not getting any younger. Why don't you find a wife? If you see someone you like, just tell Ye Chen. I'll make the decision; I absolutely have to get Ye Chen to introduce you to someone!"

Luo Ling teased Tian Cong with a smile, but to her surprise, Tian Cong blushed, which was a rare occurrence for him.

"Brother Tian Cong, you don't actually have your eye on someone, do you?" Tian Xiaohui asked in surprise.

But Tian Cong responded in a muffled voice, "It's clearly someone else who's interested in me, not me who's interested in someone else."

"It takes two to tango, Tian Cong. Judging from your expression, you've clearly taken a liking to that girl. Why don't you tell us who you've got your eye on?"

Qian Jiali also stepped forward, looking gossipy, and began to speak.

Women are powerless against gossip about love and romance.

Under repeated questioning from the three women, Tian Cong finally stammered out the truth.

It turned out that Tian Cong had taken a liking to Widow Zhao at the west end of the village.

Upon hearing the name, Tian Xiaohui frowned immediately: "Widow Zhao, Brother Tian Cong, you're not talking about Zhao Xiuli, are you?"

The widow Zhao at the west end of the village, whose husband died five or six years ago, is plump and exceptionally beautiful. If you really want to say who would be interested in her, there are quite a few people in the whole Shuangshu Village.

But even now, no one has made a move on it, mainly because of Widow Zhao's family!

After Zhao's husband died, her family repeatedly harassed her, insisting that she remarry and marry her husband's younger brother.

They even went so far as to say that since we're all family, we shouldn't let the good stuff go to outsiders.

However, this matter was ultimately not very proper. Widow Zhao refused to comply even at the cost of her life, and her family members made a scene every three days and a big scene every five days, forcing the entire village to avoid having any contact with Widow Zhao.

"Brother Tian Cong, how did you get involved with Widow Zhao?"

"What do you mean by 'flirting'? That's called mutual consent!"

"Yes, yes, Brother Tian Cong, please tell everyone in detail what happened. If you're sincere, we sisters will help you put in a good word for you!"

Tian Xiaohui and the other two immediately perked up and started asking questions one after another.

Unable to withstand the pressure, Tian Cong finally told the truth.

It turns out that Tian Cong used to drink heavily every day and often came home drunk. One day, he couldn't hold on any longer and slept at the door of Widow Zhao's house.

Upon hearing the commotion, the other party took Tian Cong in and treated him with great care.

After this incident, the two began exchanging glances. Tian Cong helped Widow Zhao fetch water, while Widow Zhao helped Tian Cong with sewing and mending.

Unfortunately, Zhao's family later came to Tian Cong's house and caused a huge scene.

In addition, Tian Cong was not capable at the time, which is why he had to break off contact.

"I heard that Widow Zhao has been having a big fight with her family these past few days, and I'm worried something might have happened."

"If you sisters really want to help me, please make some inquiries. If you find any news, I will reward you handsomely!"

As Tian Cong finished speaking, he made a direct request. Before Tian Xiaohui and the other two women could respond, Ye Chen waved his hand dismissively.

"What are you asking about? Brother Tian Cong, if you really care, why don't you just go and ask her directly? With so many of us here, are we afraid of her family?"

"Alright, I'll make the decision. Let's set off right now. But that Widow Zhao also has feelings for you, so even if I have to go all out, I'll make sure this happens!"

Ye Chen stated directly that in his heart, Tian Cong was his benefactor.

If it weren't for his mediation, those drunkards would have probably harassed Ye Chen in some way.

Later, the two worked together, and Tian Cong even followed Ye Chen through life and death several times.

Ye Chen had many secrets, which Tian Cong knew perfectly well, but in the end, he never betrayed Ye Chen.

Based on this alone, Tian Cong is trustworthy!

Ye Chen, who himself is surrounded by women, naturally wants to find a way to help Tian Cong resolve this problem.

Otherwise, what kind of brothers are we?
