All Heavens Pension started from the fiery era

Chapter 706 707. Financial Freedom and Relief

The old lady and Yue Wenxuan's parents were still confused, so Yue Wenxuan explained what had happened in detail.

After listening to his son's explanation, Yue Hanzhang directly asked the key question, "How come I didn't know that you have such a powerful friend? It's inconvenient to tell other people this person's name, but you won't keep it secret from us, right?"

Yue Wenxuan had already thought of an explanation in advance. "That man is my master. He is a wise hermit who is like a living god. I only know that he calls himself Xiaoyaozi and is over a hundred years old this year. I don't know anything else."

"He is a living god-like wise hermit who is over a hundred years old." Yue Hanzhang was completely surprised by his son's answer. "Then how did you two know each other?"

"We met by chance when I went to Taihu Lake for a trip during the summer vacation last year. Maybe it was fate. We didn't say a few words before the master wanted to accept me as his disciple, and I kowtowed to him on the spot." Yue Wenxuan said it briefly.

The old lady complained, "You are too naive, kid. How can you just kowtow and become my disciple so easily? Becoming my disciple is such an important matter that you must think carefully before making a decision. You can't just agree to it so easily."

"Grandma, you haven't seen my master. He is over a hundred years old, but he is still vigorous, with a youthful face and white hair. He looks like an old immortal. And I felt very close to him when I saw him. Maybe we are really destined to be master and apprentice, so I became his disciple without any consideration.

I originally thought that the master was just a learned scholar, and every word he said always revealed wisdom and philosophy. I didn't know that the master was a man who had mountains of gold and silver, but regarded gold and silver as dirt.

After he knew our family's situation, he told me directly that he had no relatives in the world and that all his property would be gradually transferred to me in the future.

The ginseng and bezoars we brought out this time are just the first batch, and there will be more in the future."

Yue Wenxuan’s narration is very skillful, especially in highlighting the key points.

"The first thing your master did was to buy precious medicinal materials worth nearly three hundred thousand dollars. It seems that he is really like what you said, a person who has mountains of gold and silver but regards money as dirt.

Did you discuss the 30% commission you and the two shopkeepers agreed upon with your master? You didn't make that decision on your own, did you? "

After all, an astronomical amount of money was involved, so Yue Hanzhang had to be cautious and it was better to ask clearly.

"The master has already said that these ginseng and bezoars are given to me, and the money from the sales belongs to me. He will not ask about it.

Since you've given me everything, I have the final say on how to cooperate with our Baicaotang." Yue Wenxuan said as a matter of course.

"Precious medicinal herbs worth nearly three hundred thousand oceans are given to you just like that, without any conditions. That shouldn't be possible, right?" The old lady was old and didn't quite believe in such pie-in-the-sky things.

"My master has no other relatives in this world, only me as his disciple. He is over a hundred years old, so he naturally doesn't value these material possessions. Let alone the medicinal materials worth only 300,000 oceans, even if they are worth 3 million or 30 million, they are just a number to my master, and he doesn't value them.

And I am his only disciple, and sooner or later everything he has will be handed over to me."

What Yue Wenxuan had just said about a living immortal who was over a hundred years old, had no relatives, and had mountains of gold and silver, had already given everyone endless imagination. Now, facts have proven that these were not imaginations, but facts.

Tan Bingzhen was so excited that she stood up, hugged her son, and said happily: "Last time I drew a fortune at Hanshan Temple, the master said that you will be rich and powerful in the future. It seems that he was right. Now it has come true."

Yue Wenxuan was a little speechless and didn't know what to say, but as long as his mother was happy, that was his original purpose.

Yue Wenxuan's elder sister Yue Suzhi, who was standing nearby, asked in surprise, "Wenxuan, can the herbs your master gave you really be sold for three hundred thousand dollars?"

"It should be less than 300,000 yuan, but it's not too far off. Maybe only 10,000 or 20,000 yuan."

"Your master is so rich. I have never seen so much money in my life. I don't think our family has that much money, right?"

Yue Suzhi had always grown up in luxury and had no idea about money, but she also knew that this was an astonishing fortune.

“It may not be that much now, but it was definitely a lot more in the past.”

"That's great! From now on, mother won't have to worry about the family expenses anymore." Yue Suzhi was very relieved.

Tan Bingzhen said seriously: "Although Wenxuan's money is also our family's money, the accounts still need to be separated.

After all, this was a gift from his master, and it was natural for Wenxuan to accept it. But if this money went into our family's public account, it would be unreasonable of our family.

From now on, Wenxuan will have to keep the money himself. When Wenxuan sees his master, he must report the truth to him."

Yue Hanzhang thought the same, nodded and said: "Wenxuan is still young, and it stands to reason that he shouldn't be keeping so much money. I am a little worried about a sixteen-year-old child holding such a large sum of money.

But this money was given by Master Wenxuan, so he must have a purpose, and he would definitely ask Wenxuan to use the money well."

At this point, Yue Hanzhang looked down at Yue Wenxuan and said seriously, "You are still young, so you must think twice before doing anything. Such a large sum of money must be used where it should be used. If you can't spend it, keep it in the bank. Don't spend it recklessly, and don't use it for gambling or smoking. If I find out that you are addicted to these three things, I will break your legs!"

Yue Wenxuan hurriedly assured: "Father, don't worry, don't you know who I am? I am always under your watch, how could I be infected with those bad habits?
My master gave me such a large sum of money because he believed in me. I will definitely not let him down, and I will definitely not let you down."

"It's OK as long as you understand this principle. Although I won't keep the money your master gave you, I have the responsibility to supervise you. I will check on you from time to time in the future. Don't think I'm troublesome."

If the money had not come from a gift from his son's master, Yue Hanzhang would definitely not have let his son keep it. He was not that careless.

A sixteen-year-old child with more than two hundred thousand dollars in his hand was simply incredible to Yue Hanzhang. This was no longer just spoiling the child. A little indulgence would simply push the child into an irreversible situation.

He secretly guessed that this might be a test from Xiaoyaozi to his son. If his son could pass the test, as he himself said, he might inherit all the old man's property in the future.

But if he failed the test, he would definitely not ask for the things he had been given back, but he estimated that he would probably have nothing at all in the future.

The current situation was not appropriate, so he planned to talk to his son alone later and make sure his son had this understanding in his heart.

As for whether his son would learn bad things after having so much money, he was of course also worried, but since this was a test, he could only hope that his son would have a firm belief and would not get lost in material desires. He still had some confidence in this, otherwise he would not have made this decision.

Although the Yue family is not as prosperous as before, the spending of his son from childhood to adulthood has not been affected much, and he still grows up in luxury. He is not a poor boy who suddenly becomes rich, and it is very likely that he will not lose his mind just because he suddenly has such a large sum of money.

Besides, his son has Huang Youjin as his spy by his side. If his son really learns to be bad, I believe that with Huang Youjin's shrewdness, he will definitely not hide it.

After all, my son is still young. I am not afraid of making mistakes, but I am afraid of getting stuck in the mud. As long as it can be discovered and corrected in time, there will not be any big problem.

Yue Wenxuan had gone to such great lengths just to fight for himself the right to be financially independent. Now that he had achieved his goal, he naturally agreed to his father's request.

Yue Hanzhang thought for a moment and continued, "You are cooperating with your own Baicaotang. Although it is a good thing for you to keep the money within the family, the 30% commission is still too much. You need to change it.

Maybe your master really doesn't care about these little things, but these precious medicinal herbs are given to you by him. If you give too much discount, he might be unhappy.

If what you take out is ordinary medicinal materials, a 30% commission is indeed appropriate, but it is not suitable for extremely popular medicinal materials like this one, so it is better to change it to 10%.

Even if we only take 10%, because the medicinal materials are in great demand and there are enough of them, the profit is already very considerable, and it is already a very good business."

Yue Wenxuan did not intend to agree. He cooperated with his own Baicaotang for one reason, firstly to make things convenient for himself, and secondly to increase some income for his family.

He said seriously, "30% is appropriate, and I made this decision after careful consideration.

My master doesn't care about these material things, but my character. If I were to haggle over every penny when cooperating with Baicaotang, how would my master see me?

Besides, this is my responsibility and obligation as the eldest son in the family. With these profits, our family won’t have to worry about money anymore, and my father will have more confidence in interacting with others in the future.”

After hearing what his son said, Yue Hanzhang was slightly surprised, but also very relieved.

He didn't expect his son to think so much and even think that this might be his master testing his character.

If this Xiaoyaozi really had this intention, then his son's approach was appropriate. On the contrary, his suggestion was too narrow-minded and might really be a bad idea.

The old lady beside him said with emotion: "I always feel that it is a little unreal, just like a dream. Nearly 300,000 yuan worth of precious medicinal materials were given away just like that. Wenxuan's master is really too generous.

In the past, it was extremely difficult for our family to earn 10,000 oceans. If this batch of precious medicinal materials were sold, according to the three-level extraction, the income of Baicaotang alone would be 80,000 to 90,000 oceans.

Eighty or ninety thousand dollars, that's a huge amount of money!

Even if they are wealthy merchants, how many people in the entire Wuzhou can make so much money in a year? "

"Grandma, this is not a dream. Your eldest grandson is born to be rich and powerful. When my mother drew lots in Hanshan Temple, didn't the master already have a prediction? Now it has become a reality." Yue Wenxuan used his mother's words just now as a shield.

“Since ancient times, people who live past 100 years old are extremely rare; they are considered centenarians.

My grandson is lucky to have met such a good master. Do you think we should pay him a visit? Don't be impolite." The old lady suggested.

"Since you have this intention, if I have the opportunity to see Master again someday, I will convey your message.

My master had told me a long time ago that he was old now and liked quietness and didn't want to be disturbed by anyone. He also specifically told me not to tell my family about his affairs, and said that we were only destined to be master and apprentice, and that we should not meet with other people.

Besides, my master is so secretive that even I don't know where he lives in seclusion. I have only met him three times in the past year. If he wants to tell me something, he usually asks his subordinates to convey it.

Just like the herbs sent to me this time, they were sent directly to Sanshanju, and my master didn’t show up at all.”

Yue Wenxuan's words discouraged the old lady from wanting to visit her, and she said regretfully:

"Since your master doesn't want to be disturbed, then forget it, but you have to convey my feelings to the right place and don't let people think that our Yue family is impolite."

"Grandma, I will. Next time we meet, I will convey your thoughts to you."

Everyone was very curious about Yue Wenxuan, the mysterious master. They asked some details and Yue Wenxuan answered them patiently.

Yue Hanzhang said with emotion: "In the past ten years, I have been trying to revive my family business and make every effort to expand it, but it has been getting worse year by year. I have deeply realized one truth - it is too difficult to make money in this chaotic world!

As a result, Wenxuan could easily make eighty or ninety thousand yuan for his family, and it would not take more than a month at most.

For most people, earning a fortune is extremely difficult, but for a very few people, making money is as easy as taking something out of a bag.

From now on, if our family wants to revive, it will depend on Wenxuan. I am only capable of this, and at most I can only fill in the gaps in the back."

Yue Wenxuan didn't dare to get angry at this time, "Father, it is very dangerous for a child to carry gold through the city. The world is so chaotic now. If a family only has money but no corresponding power, even if I am young, I know that the end will definitely not be good."

Yue Hanzhang didn't expect his son to understand this truth at this age, and he was even more relieved, "I feel more relieved that you can understand this.

But our family hasn’t reached that point yet.

Although your grandfather has passed away for many years, some old relationships have been well maintained. Add to that the relationships on your maternal grandfather's side, and the connections I've made over the years, and it shouldn't be a problem to protect the family business.

I’m not really good at business, but when it comes to socializing, I think I’m as good as anyone else.”
