Chen Xiaolan looked at Su Shi in surprise, because although Su Shi looked kind-hearted, Chen Xiaolan also knew that she was a stranger to him and Su Shi might not help her. And she just sought medical treatment in a desperate situation.
But after Su Shi hesitated for a moment, he still came to help and allowed her to escape from the sea of suffering. How could she not cry with joy.
When Chen Ang looked at the banknote and knew that his daughter was saved, he suddenly felt relieved. His feet felt weak and he collapsed on the ground.
The people watching around couldn't help but look at Su Shi in surprise. After all, there weren't many people who could easily take out a hundred taels of silver.
Seeing that the situation was out of control, Du Heng couldn't help but step forward and said to Su Shi, "Can you please lend me a moment to speak?"
Su Shi frowned and looked at him in confusion: "What else do you want to say?"
Du Hengtan smiled and said: "I know that the young master is rich and noble. This little money is nothing to the young master, but..."
At this point, Du Heng stopped talking.
"Just what?" Su Shi asked curiously.
Seeing that Su Shi was so dishonest, Du Heng became furious and could no longer care about Su Shi's identity. He gritted his teeth and said, "It's just that the young master should have trouble with Dongyuan Zhiku."
Su Shi looked at him with strange eyes and said, "It is natural to pay back debts. When did I have trouble with Dongyuan Zhiku?"
In front of the public, Du Heng was really unable to tell the real reason, so he could only say coldly: "Young master, why should you ask questions when you know clearly?"
Seeing that Du Heng was talking carelessly, Su Shi had no intention of paying attention to him anymore. He put the banknote in Chen Xiaolan's hand and said calmly: "Take this banknote and pay off the debt first."
Chen Xiaolan stared blankly at the banknote in her hand, completely unable to believe what she was seeing, as if she was still in a dream.
It was only then that Chen Ang woke up from a dream and hurried over. He was so excited that he was about to kneel down to Su Shi.
Su Shi hurriedly grabbed him. In desperation, Chen Ang cried out to Chen Xiaolan: "Lan...er, why don't you kowtow to your benefactor...your benefactor quickly?"
After Chen Xiaolan was born, Chen Ang regarded her as a treasure and refused to let her suffer any injustice. But in order to treat Yunniang, he left the family impoverished and made Chen Xiaolan suffer a lot. Now he even almost pushed her into a pit of fire.
If it hadn't been for Su Shi, her daughter would have been unable to escape the clutches of the devil today, and he would have had no choice but to die.
Now that he has found his way out of a desperate situation, although Chen Ang has not burst into tears yet, he has choked up several times while speaking.
The crowd of onlookers could not help but feel deeply for what happened to Chen Ang and his daughter. Some sentimental women couldn't help but wipe the corners of their eyes with their handkerchiefs, and they had a good impression of Su Shi.
Qin Nan looked at Su Shi intently, and his expression became a little dazed, but then he remembered that he was already engaged, and compared with the young master in front of him, Su Shi was far different in talent and character, so he was filled with sadness and couldn't relieve himself. .
Chen Xiaolan was about to kneel down again, but Su Shi shook his head and said, "You don't have to thank me, because I didn't give you this hundred taels of silver in vain."
Chen Xiaolan whispered: "Young master saved this slave from fire and water. From now on, I will serve you wholeheartedly."
Su Shi shook his head and said with a smile: "I don't have the habit of being served, and I don't do this to make you sell yourself to me."
As soon as these words came out, not only Chen Ang and his daughter were shocked and speechless on the spot, but even the onlookers around them became silent.
After all, one hundred taels was not a small amount, and Su Shi not only took it out casually without asking for anything in return. In their opinion, Su Shi's moral character was not only high, but almost as high as the sky.
Chen Ang was already bursting into tears. Chen Xiaolan bowed down and said in a trembling voice: "Young Master has been so kind, but Xiaolan has nothing to repay..."
Su Shi sighed, and then interrupted her: "I'll say it again, I won't give you this bank note in vain, so you don't have to thank me."
Chen Xiaolan was stunned, looked at Su Shi with doubtful eyes, and asked, "What does the young master need from us?"
Su Shi said: "I am very optimistic about the black plum soup business, so I want to invest in this business."
"Investment?" Chen Xiaolan didn't know why and looked at him blankly.
Seeing her confused look, Su Shi touched her nose and said, "Investment means that I pay for you to do business, and we all share the money we make."
Chen Xiaolan still looked surprised: "Young Master wants to do business?"
Su Shi nodded and said lazily: "Anyway, it's just idle time. Let's just pass the time."
Chen Xiaolan looked at the two barrels of plum soup and couldn't understand what Su Shi meant by business, because even if their father and daughter got up early and worked hard at night, the money they earned from selling the plum soup was only enough to make ends meet.
Su Shi ignored her and said in deep thought: "I did a rough calculation just now. Even if the business is a little worse, there should be a profit of three to four thousand taels a month. If it is done well, the profit can be doubled. It is an essential skill." A small and profitable business.”
Having said this, Su Shi held his head and thought for a while, then continued: "Furthermore, you and your daughter can do this business, and it won't cost me any time or energy, so I can just sit back and enjoy the results."
He talked a lot to himself, completely unaware that everyone was looking at him as if he was an idiot.
Chen Ang looked at the two barrels of plum soup. Even if he broke his head, he would not be able to imagine that these two barrels of plum soup were so valuable.
At this time, a crow-like laughter suddenly sounded, and Du Heng looked at Su Shi as if he were watching a joke.
"It turns out that this person is an idiot." Du Heng looked at Su Shi and almost couldn't stand upright with laughter.
Although the onlookers didn't have a good impression of Du Heng, no one had any objection to his words.
Because Su Shi really looked like an idiot at this time.
A bowl of black plum soup only costs two cents. Even if the profit reaches half, a bowl will only earn one cent. To earn four thousand taels of silver a month, the amount to be sold is an astronomical figure.
This was an impossible task, even if Su Shi was a god, he couldn't do it.
Su Shi was not angry and looked at him with a smile: "You don't believe it?"
Although Du Heng had always been wary of Su Shi, Su Shi ruined his good deeds and became so angry that he no longer had any scruples in his words.
He sneered: "Do you think what you are selling is jade liquid? You earn four thousand taels a month. If it weren't for your dreams, or if you didn't think that people in Kyoto are idiots."
Su Shi said calmly: "Just because you can't do it, it doesn't mean that others can't do it too."
At this time, Du Heng's heart moved. He suddenly stared at Su Shi and sneered: "Since you are so confident in yourself, do you dare to make a bet with me?"
