Han Feng got off the carriage and looked up at the plaque on the gate. After confirming that it was the Han Mansion, he asked Lao Wang to drive the carriage back.

"Ahem...!"

Standing in front of the gate of Han Mansion, Han Feng held the owner's dignity and coughed twice, waiting for someone in the house to hear, and the housekeeper, maids, and servants would open the door to welcome him.

However, after waiting for a long time, the door was still closed, and there was no movement inside.

Helpless, Han Feng could only put down his body, step forward and knock on the door.

After knocking for a while, there was finally a sound of brisk footsteps inside. Han Feng quickly stood in front of the door with his hands behind his back, straightened his back, and once again showed the majesty of a householder.

"Squeak...!"

The door was opened from the inside, and a slender figure stood at the door.

Han Feng took one look at it and his eyes suddenly lit up.

This is a pretty girl, about thirteen or fourteen years old, with an oval face, big eyes, fair and smooth skin, and two ponytails. She looks innocent and cute.

Moreover, the girl is not short in stature. At such a young age, her pair of slender legs have already begun to take shape in golden proportions.

A slight drawback is that the girl is a little thinner and her face lacks some color. Of course, due to age restrictions, there is still a certain "barren" part of the girl's body that needs to be developed.

But none of this prevented Han Feng from marveling at what a beautiful little loli she was. He even couldn't help but think that if this girl put on a stocking maid outfit, she would definitely kill all the cosplay enthusiasts in her previous life.

When Han Feng was looking at the little Loli, she was also staring at him. She stared blankly for a few seconds, then rubbed her eyes to make sure she was not dazzled. The little Loli suddenly shouted in surprise!

"Master! Why are you back?"

The little Lolita's excited reaction made Han Feng feel comfortable. It seemed that he must be very popular in the Han family.

With a subtle yet majestic smile, Han Feng nodded.

"I have been away from home for a long time, and I really miss my relatives at home. This time, the head of the family plans to come back for a long time and develop our Han family's business."

Hearing this, the little Loli put her fists on her heart, and her eyes suddenly filled with little stars of admiration.

"The head of the family must be worried about the 'eldest lady' and the 'third master'. Bing'er knows that the head of the house will not abandon us!"

Bing'er's adoring gaze made Han Feng's vanity explode again. Sure enough, it felt good to go home. As soon as he opened the door, he got a top-quality loli powder. This girl's name turned out to be "Bing'er".

Han Feng stepped across the threshold with his head held high and his chest high, and ordered.

"Bing'er, lead the way. We will gather all the maids and servants in the house later. I will give you a lecture!"

"Okay, Master!"

The master and servant walked into the house with cheerful steps. Han Feng was even more confident and prepared to show off his talents in the Han family.

With the Han family's current wealth and his advanced ideas in his previous life, Han Feng felt that he would soon reach the peak of his life, cure his chronic illnesses, and become a winner in life.

"hey-hey……!"

Thinking of all this, Han Feng couldn't help but reveal a lustful smile on his face.

But Han Feng's smile did not last long, and he finally froze in the lobby of the Han family.

In the lobby of the Han family, there are only a few shabby chairs. In the middle of the room hangs an old and yellow picture of a dragon and phoenix with a corner missing. The paint on the surrounding beams and columns has long since fallen off, and in the middle

The roof is missing two tiles.

A ray of midday sunlight shined through the gap and happened to shine on Han Feng's stiff face, making the already ugly smile even more eye-catching.

Sitting in the lobby of the Han family, which looked like a "dangerous house waiting to be demolished", Han Feng looked at Bing'er standing in the hall and the man next to her, with white hair, ragged clothes, a cane and a stooped waist, and a look on his face.

The old man, whose wrinkles could almost kill a mosquito, was stunned.

After being stunned for a long time, Han Feng looked at Bing'er and asked with some surprise.

"Bing'er, didn't I ask you to summon all the maids and servants in the house? You...why did you call this old man here?"

Bing'er opened her big, pure eyes and said matter-of-factly.

"Master, apart from you, the master, there are only four people in our house, the eldest lady, the third master, Butler Zhang and Bing'er. You said you would gather all the servants in the mansion, that is Butler Zhang and me. Bing'er did not make a mistake in your calculation.

"

"Well……"

The corners of Han Feng's mouth twitched violently in the sunlight, and the big chair of the head of the household, which was missing a leg, finally lost its stability and fell to the ground along with the person and the chair.

"Master, what's wrong with you!"

Butler Zhang and Bing'er quickly stepped forward to help.

However, Han Feng quickly said to Butler Zhang.

"Hey...old man, don't touch me, I can just get up by myself."

Judging from the appearance of Butler Zhang, he was probably in his early seventies if not eighty. Han Feng was really afraid that he would fall down again as soon as the other person touched him. It was not uncommon for this kind of thing to happen to him in his previous life.

After a while, Han Feng, Butler Zhang and Bing'er stood in the center of the hall.

The three of them looked at me and I looked at you, but none of them spoke, and the atmosphere was a bit strange.

Finally, Han Feng finally spoke first.

"Ahem... Bing'er, Butler Zhang, I was injured a few days ago and forgot many things in the house. I came back today just to find out about the situation in the branch.

Do you know how much property, food, cash, house deeds, land deeds we still have in our house... tell me one by one!"

Han Feng's expression was very serious at this moment, because judging from various signs, he had begun to doubt his status as a "rich man".

How could a rich family with a mine have only one maid and one housekeeper in the whole house? Moreover, the furnishings in the house were too shabby and shabby, so he had to take stock of his property.

As for the situation of the Han family branch, Butler Zhang and Bing'er were naturally very clear about it. When the family leader asked questions, the two of them started to answer each other word by word.

Bing'er blinked her big bright eyes and calculated carefully with her fingers.

"Master, we still have half a jar of rice, two nests of Chinese cabbage, four potatoes, and half a pound of dried bacon from last year..."

As Bing'er's slender jade fingers moved, Han Feng's heart was trembling slightly, but he still tried to comfort himself.

"Be careful with your budget and live frugally" is an excellent virtue of a landlord's family. Maybe he still owns thousands of acres of fertile land and countless shops, but his life is relatively simple.

However, when Butler Zhang opened his mouth, which was missing a front tooth, and showed a simple and honest smile, Han Feng's psychological defense was finally broken.

"Master, we still have three silver coins in our warehouse. We don't have the property deed yet. There are two acres of wasteland at the foot of the mountain to the east. The seeds we have just sown have not yet begun to harvest.

In addition, we haven’t paid for the farm tools we bought, and we still owe two silver coins to the county blacksmith shop, fifty copper coins for seeds, and one silver coin for fertilizer..."

"Stop...stop talking!"

Han Feng finally called out to Butler Zhang, and at the same time couldn't help but reach out and rub his heart, fearing that he wouldn't be able to bear the stimulation and would faint.

Taking a few deep breaths, Han Feng looked at Bing'er and Butler Zhang with red eyes. He looked like a gambler who had lost everything and put all the last coffins on the gambling table. His voice was hoarse and trembling as he asked.

road.

"Our house...doesn't have a...fine iron ore vein!"

Both of them were frightened by Han Feng's gaze and were stunned for a moment. Little Loli Bing'er nodded repeatedly.

"Yes, yes...!"

Butler Zhang also nodded.

"More than ten miles to the west, there is the refined iron ore vein that the main vein gave us as a branch. This is the biggest asset of the house."

"call……!"

After hearing the two people's affirmative answers, Han Feng felt his whole body relax and almost collapsed on the ground. He finally heard the answer he wanted to hear most.

As long as there is a mine at home, no matter how poor you are, it will only be superficial, and your dream of being a luxurious and corrupt rich man is still possible.

Standing up straight again, Han Feng said with a radiant face.

"Okay, then starting from tomorrow, we will start recruiting people to mine ore!"

Hearing this, Butler Zhang's expression changed and he waved his hands repeatedly.

"Ouch...Master, I can't do it, I can't do it."

"Hmm...why is this?"

Butler Zhang said with a bitter look on his face.

"Master, do you know how much gold and silver it costs to mine the veins? Just the labor cost, material cost, tool cost... that's tens of thousands of gold coins.

Not to mention that if the initial "mining rate" is low, we will have to bear a lot of risks. Even if we sell the mansion in our branch, it will not be enough."

Han Feng frowned when he heard this, knowing that Butler Zhang's words were indeed reasonable. He was too impatient just now and ignored the cost of mining ore.

But this didn't bother him, Han Feng said directly to Butler Zhang.

"Okay, then we simply won't mine the mineral veins and directly contact several buyers to bid and auction off the minerals!"

Han Feng knew that the iron ore vein in his hands must be extremely popular, otherwise Zhou Dafu would not be so crazy as to use his daughter as bait and drug himself for the mine.

What Han Feng wants is money and the life of a wealthy and wealthy man. As for the mineral veins, they are given to everyone the same, and the one with the highest price gets them.

However, when Han Feng proposed this method, Butler Zhang and Binger looked shocked at the same time, and Butler Zhang shook his head again.

"Master, you absolutely cannot do this!"
