Originally, Lin Laogen said Lin Tianbao’s rebelling problem in front of Wu Qingyuan and Amoin order to reach out to the two of them to help persuade and teach his younger son a lesson.
But who knew that this time Amo stood on the same front with him, and Wu Qingyuan, who had always respected him, suddenly came to a wrong point, not only did he not help persuade, but also expressed his willingness to teach Lin Tianbao to do business, which made Lin Laogen angry.
Even Amo was angry and withdrew the hand that he had held, until they finished dinner at the Lin’s house- he did not lead with him when he went out and returned home, the little sheep also had a temper, and Brother Wu did not stand with him, he was not happy.
Amo’s emotions have always been clear on his face, when he is unhappy and angry, his little mouth is pouting enough to hang an oil pot, and that small eyes, aggrieved and resentful, for others Wu Qingyuan does not know, but every time he is looked at by Amo like this, his heart is soft.
After returning home to wash up, he went to bed, pulled the angry Amo into his arms and pinched the other party’s itchy flesh for a long time to tease, and finally bullied the teenager so that he couldn’t stop laughing and succumbed to his lewd power before saying his thoughts.
The reason why he didn’t directly reject Lin Tianbao today is of course with good intentions, Lin Tianbao is only how old, he may not be able to understand no matter how much they reasoned with him, since he understands the child’s rebellious character, he will not listen, a little carelessness will be self-defeating, and if he is not allowed to do anything, he will do something to rebel.
Wu Qingyuan himself knows this deeply, because he was also like this when he was this age, and it was because of rebellion and disobedience that he embarked on a life of licking blood at the knife’s edge.
“….. Tianbao’s personality is as stubborn as yours, and he will only understand if he faces the problem and knows the difficulties.”
“How am I stubborn…” Amo tilted his head and bit into the hand of the person who was scrambling his face, “But Brother Wu, if Tianbao manages to finish this business, are you really going to teach him to do business?”
Wu Qingyuan understood why he was worried, he was afraid of what if, if his younger brother really handled what Brother Wu said by then, would they really agree to his younger brother abandoning the text and engaging in business? He knew that his Dad would not agree, and letting him find a good husband and letting his brother study were the two biggest wishes of his Dad in this life.
Thinking of this, Amo quickly got up, looked at Wu Qingyuan and nervously instructed, “Brother Wu, we have to find a way, Dad will not agree to Tianbao to engage in business.”
“Don’t worry, I won’t let your father complain about me for the rest of my life…”
Wu Qingyuan smiled and pulled his beloved back into his arms before continuing to explain in a low voice.
……………
How could Wu Qingyuan not understand when this hierarchy is also applicable in modern times, and after all, money is power.

Moreover, in ancient times, the status of merchants was even lower, if he really did have the ability to test for fame in ancient times, he would not choose to take the road of business, he may be planning to buy land from local owners, but he cannot be ranked to the rank of farmers, he will bear the name of merchants and even his descendants are inferior.

Of course, there is no business license here and such, this is what Wu Qingyuan came up with after careful consideration, the most taboo thing about doing business is that to have no background, he now has no good friends in Shiqiao Town, if he wants open the store smoothly, you can only borrow the majesty of the Yamen.
Letting the people of the Yamen write a plaque for him, the main purpose is to hang it out and tell everyone that his shop is certified by them, that he has a relationship with the local tyrants, and he cannot threaten the big and powerful businesses, but it is enough to warn some snakes, insects, rats and ants who are looking for opportunities to make trouble.
It is very simple for him to do this, he gives some gifts, make friends with Brother Zheng of the Yamen, and then honor them ith a little silver every New Year in the future.
But Lin Tianbao, a child, it is difficult for him to do so, he never had any interaction with the YAmen before so it is absolutely impossible for the child to do things successfully.
Therefore, the naïve Lin Tianbao called a few friends to accompany him to the town the next day, and he couldn’t even enter the door of the Yamen.
However, the child’s character is very tenacious, and he will not give up easily, running to the town every day, going around and thinking of all means, and finally met Zheng Yanyan, the steward of the Yamen, and cleverly handed over the office funds he borrowed from his ‘good brother-in-law’, he knows how to give gifts.
But Wu Qingyuan had already greeted Zheng Yanyan in advance, and the child naturally failed to succeed, and was ridiculed by the people of the Yamen.
“The little cub is very smart, and he knows how to send silver, but today you see this man’s grandfather is sick so he is not in a good mood- wait until my grandfather is happy and well, go back.”
“Just write a plaque, I’ll give you silver, uncle, look, ten taels, I have ten taels! You just need to write a few words…..”
Lin Tianbao still didn’t want to give up, if things didn’t work well, he wouldn’t be able to learn to do business with Brother Wu!
“Silver? What if you have silver? I just don’t want to write today, what does it matter if you have silver? The industry and commerce are the largest in our Yamen, silver is always rolling in.”
“Hahaha, that is, you see we have the biggest difference, the little cub should go home to find his mommy for two more days of milk, hahaha…..” The surrounding servants laughed and taunted, hearing them, Lin Tianbao’s face turned red, but in the face of a few imposing adults, he had no choice, and finally he could only walk away with red eyes and a downcast mood.
He didn’t understand- it was just to write a few words, why were the people in the Yamen not willing to help with such a simple matter, he also prepared silver, how could these people be so arrogant, it was really infuriating…
Wu Qingyuan kept following him, and when he saw that he wanted to cry, he didn’t go out, and followed him until he went home.
“Woo, Brother Wu, they bully people, bully small people like me- I give them money and they still don’t write for me, and they also laugh at me …..”
As soon as he saw the adults in the family, Lin Tianbao couldn’t hold back his tears, obviously the taunting roar of several servants just now scared the child.
Amo originally wanted to come up to comfort his younger brother, but looking at Wu Qingyuan, he finally held back- let this be handled by Brother Wu, so as not to make him soft-hearted.
And so, when the child cried enough and complained enough, Wu Qingyuan slowly reasoned with him.
“Do you think that because your Brother-in-law has made money by trading, and now he is buying land and opening a shop, he is very prestigious, and the scholars in the village are not comparable, right?”
“Uh-huh…..,” Lin Tianbao nodded honestly, but indeed, his brother-in-law made a fortune by doing business in less than a year, while those useless old talents had barely anything to show.
“But do you know the risk Brother-in-law took when he went out? The business road is full of robbers and bandits, if it were not for my good martial arts since childhood, not to mention making money, coming back alive is already a huge problem, just here, you see, these scars are the ones I got when running outside before, see…..”
Wu Qingyuan stared at his expression without provoking, and continued, pulling open his clothes as he spoke, revealing the hideous scars on his chest from when he was on a previous mission.
“I, I can also learn martial arts- I- I’m not afraid of pain…..”
The child was visibly shaken by the scars on his body and began to tremble as he spoke.
Amo also showed a distressed look on his face, he had seen these scars the night they became a couple, and he could also see it every night when Wu Qingyuan took off his clothes, and he always felt uncomfortable, although Wu Qingyuan explained it to him, but he was still uncomfortable.
Everyone said that Brother Wu had traveled the world and seen a lot of knowledge, but seeing these scars, he knew what kind of experience was behind that knowledge, which would never be shown in Brother Wu’s gentle smile.
“It’s okay, it’s all right…..”
These scars looked serious, and they were indeed very painful before, but after they all passed, Wu Qingyuan smiled at the depressed Amo, and held his hand comfortingly before continuing to talk to Lin Tianbao, who was already a little timid.
“Tianbao is very brave, naturally not afraid of pain, but businessmen are always inferior, Brother is not capable of doing the tests so he could only do business, you went to Yamen today and saw it, you see that Yamen is just a small official in a small town, but people dare not provoke them.”
“And the last time the people in the village spread some bad rumors about your older brother, I also invited the Yamen people to teach those people a lesson, if we only relied on ourselves, how can the people in the village be afraid?” Everyone is afraid of the people in the official government. If Tianbao is admitted to the examination in the future and has a position in the imperial court, how majestic is that?
“But even the gentleman of the private school did not pass the exam…” The child is very unconfident, where is it so easy to test for merit.
“How do you know if you haven’t tried? Besides, you are only ten years old now, you are still young, you go to study first, and then it will not be too late for you to learn to do business with me? And even if you do business, you must be learned, if you do not know words, do not understand reason, and can not settle accounts, do not show up, didn’t you tell me that you can memorize all those four books and five classics now? You also learned the multiplication table I taught your brother before, can you calculate them all?”
“I… I will learn the three main scriptures.”
A series of questions were asked, and though the child was angry- he finally lowered his head with insufficient confidence.
“Will you still rebel after hearing Brother Wu? Turn around and hurry up and go to private school with Dad!”
Seeing that the goal of hitting his brother was achieved, Amo laughed happily and showed Wu Qingyuan a small look of appreciation, and then took out the posture of being an older brother and slapped his younger brother on the brain.
“Brother, you still don’t even know the three-character scripture…” Lin Tianbao, who was in a depressed mood, covered his brain and was very aggrieved.
“I have my husband, my brother Wu will learn it for me! Do you have such a relationship?”
“I-I-I… don’t.”
“You still dare to teach me a lesson?!”
“…”
