The clear sunshine in spring shines on the antique green brick and black tile courtyard.

The fresh breeze gently blew over Chen Sheng's pale face, lifting the shoulder-length hair scattered behind his head and fluttering slightly.

He raised his face comfortably, squinted his eyes and quietly felt the peaceful atmosphere in the air. The depression accumulated after being sick in bed for many days seemed to be melting into the bright spring light little by little.

He had forgotten how long it had been since he had such a peaceful moment of meditation.

It seems that I was always busy before.

Busy studying.

Busy at work.

Busy starting a business.

Busy working hard...

It seems that I don’t live with the anxiety of being trafficked by others every day.

It’s just living in the anxiety of being sold by others.

Now look back.

After traveling for half a life, I only got a house in Shanghai.

I actually felt very proud and satisfied, feeling that I had finally completed the triple jump in life and entered the ranks of the elite.

This situation.

He suddenly thought of a joke.

"Why are you lying around and not working?"

"Why work?"

“You can make money by working!”

"Then what?"

“When you have money, you can buy a car and a house!”

"What happens next?"

"If you have a car and a house, you can lie back and enjoy life!"

"What's the difference between that and me now?"

Chen Sheng couldn't help but open his eyes, looked at the pear tree blooming in the courtyard, and murmured in a low voice: "So, is this a second chance given by God?"

He thought he should thank God.

After working hard for half his life, he was finally diagnosed with advanced liver cancer just before the company was about to receive Series C financing and his net worth was about to skyrocket. His heart was shattered.

It was as if the sky had fallen.

What made him collapse even more was that just when he mustered up the courage to make up for the many regrets in his life in the remaining time, he found that he could no longer stop.

The investors above did not allow him to stop.

The employees below couldn't tolerate him stopping.

What's even more ridiculous is...

At the last moment before his heart stopped, his strange parents, who had already reorganized their families, stood in front of his hospital bed with an equity transfer agreement, shaking him one by one to cheer him up.

Sign and go to sleep.

What a shitty life!

It’s better to finish the calf earlier!

Thinking of this, Chen Sheng breathed out a sigh of relief.

He doesn't feel sorry.

Although what he lost was what he had wanted for half his life.

But compared to the worst outcome.

It’s heaven now!

After more than ten years of ups and downs in the business world, he is not so glass-hearted.

But he has no regrets.

The owner of this body suddenly fell asleep with a heart full of regrets.

He wants to go fishing.

He wanted to catch cicadas.

He wants to be like other children, rising out in the morning light, holding his shoes and stepping on the moon before returning...

Now, he left all these regrets to Chen Sheng, a foreign visitor with the same name.

Yes, the owner of this body is also named Chen Sheng.

The only son of the Chen family in Chen County, Chen County, Yan Prefecture during the Zhou Dynasty, he was fourteen years old.

…

After staying in bed for half a month to recuperate, Chen Sheng has sorted out little Chen Sheng's memories.

The surname Chen is the common surname in Chen County.

There are hundreds of people on the street, and at least fifty of them have the surname Chen.

But Xiao Chensheng and his family, the Chen family, can be considered a hegemon in Chen County, the seat of Chen County!

The Chen family is not a wealthy family.

It can even be said that the population is withering.

By Chen Sheng's generation, the Chen family has been passed down to three generations.

In this era where we believe in having more children, we will be blessed and have more branches and branches. This situation only happens to those families who are so poor that they have no money to marry a wife.

The Chen family is not poor, but for the third generation or so, all the children born are either women or they have died young.

When it comes to Xiao Chen Sheng's generation, they have been nothing more than medicine pots since they were young. If the Chen family hadn't been fairly well-off, they wouldn't have been able to make ends meet!

The reason why the Chen family can still become a hegemon in Chen County despite its small population is because the Chen family makes a living by buying at low prices and selling at high prices, buying from the north and selling to the south.

Since Chen Sheng's great-great-grandfather's generation, the Chen family has organized a horse team and led a large group of men to do business across the country.

In this era, many businesses are passed down from father to son, and from son to grandson.

Even the employment relationship is passed down from father to son, and from son to grandson.

Passed down from generation to generation, the Chen family's trading business has gradually developed into a symbiotic relationship with the Chen family as the main body and more than 300 households as branches and leaves.

Every time the goods are shipped, the Chen family and the more than 300 households under them, the rich contribute money, and the poor contribute efforts. The profits from the goods are distributed according to their contributions.

As for those who have neither money nor power, the Chen family will give them enough money every year to support them until their next generation, and they can also join the Chen family's caravan and continue to work for four years.

a symbiotic relationship throughout the ages.

As the main body of this leafy tree, the Chen family may not be rich yet when it comes to money.

But when it comes to people, the Chen family can easily pull out two to three hundred strong men who dare to fight and kill!

During its peak period, the head of the Chen family would always be present at the county government banquets during the New Year.

It's a pity that that is already the generation of Xiao Chen Sheng's grandfather...

By the generation of Xiao Chen Sheng's father, Chen Shou, the Chen family's family power was no longer what it used to be.

It’s not because Chen Shou is not good at management.

But the world is starting to go into chaos.

Years of snowstorms and droughts have created countless refugees and bandits.

A person who is extremely hungry is no longer a human being.

It's a beast!

A beast with green eyes!

As long as they can eat a mouthful of food, they will not hesitate even if they die immediately after taking a mouthful!

When countless refugees and bandits gathered together, not to mention the cavalry escorted by hundreds of people, they even dared to rob the army!

After several failed attempts to sell goods, the Chen family suffered heavy losses in both financial and human resources!

However, no matter how heavy the losses are, the relationships that need to be managed on various trade routes must continue to be managed, and the clerks who need to be supported must continue to be supported.

It will be all in vain if you just sit and eat, let alone such a method with only expenses and no income...

No, a few months ago, before the snow in Jizhou and Youzhou had melted, Chen Shou gritted his teeth again, organized a caravan, and personally led it north.

Chen Sheng knows.

It's not because the Chen family can't hold on any longer.

There is a saying that a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, and a broken ship still has three nails.

With the size of the Chen family, even if they were so depressed that they sold their house and land, they could still ensure food and clothing for three generations.

It’s the guys down there who can’t hold on any longer!

They are no better than the Chen family. Their capital is small and their profits are thin.

After several batches of licensed goods went missing, most of the clerks’ families were almost at the end of their rope!

If there is no timely rain, the symbiotic system built by four generations of the Chen family will collapse...

For the Chen family, this is undoubtedly a more terrifying thing than losing the licensed goods!

…

Chen Sheng was well aware of the Chen family's plight.

But he didn't care much.

To him, as long as Chen Shou can return safely, no matter how bad the outcome is, it is just a trivial matter.

He integrated all of Xiao Chen Sheng's memories, and naturally also received all of Xiao Chen Sheng's emotions.

Of course, this includes Xiao Chen Sheng's admiration for Chen Shou.

The strong man in Xiao Chen Sheng's memory who was self-denying, hard-working, kind to others, and who worked half his life just for the sake of this big family, is indeed worthy of his respect!

Compared to his biological parents whom he didn't even want to recall, Chen Shou was not only ten thousand times stronger?

As for the Chen family’s business...

There is always a solution!

If he came to this time and space alone, it might be difficult to do anything.

But with the foundation of the Chen family, he doesn't think this problem can trouble him.

If he didn't have this kind of self-confidence, he wouldn't have been able to build a company from scratch to a scale close to being listed in such a complicated business environment in his previous life.

Compared to the Chen family’s business problems.

He is more concerned about when he can take good health and go out to play like a child for a few days, fulfilling Xiao Chen Sheng's last wish, lest those innocent and childish desires always appear in his mind unconsciously...

as well as.

The system light curtain in front of him had already displayed "Abnormal state detected, system initializing..." when he woke up. When will it be loaded?

Of course, he must trust his own experience and abilities more than this unknown system.

But if there was a shortcut, he would certainly not be so stupid as to be so confident that "I have achieved all my achievements through my own hard work, and I have never been half as good as others"...

Children only value the process, adults only care about the results!
