Wei Chunfang found it funny, touched Chuanjie's head and asked:

"Si'er, did your second brother say something to you?"

Chuanjie rubbed his neck and said:
"Is that so? My second brother told me that if I secretly give him the money I get, he will treat it as if he got it, so that he can get rich!"

Zhu Kaishan laughed and cursed:

"You kid, why are you so obsessed with money? What do you want to do when you get rich?"

"I don't want to do anything, but I can get a wife if I get rich. The boss has a daughter, so I have to find someone as beautiful as Xian'er."

Everyone burst into laughter. This ambition was great and good.

He also followed Chuanren's "bad" example. He no longer mentioned brother or sister in his mouth, but just called her by name.

Zhu Kaishan never cared about this, and Wei Chunfang was used to it.

The two elders don't care, so naturally no one will correct them. The name is just a code name, don't worry about it.

The seven people talked and ate, but no one got the big money.

Seeing that there was only the last game left, everyone was a little nervous.

Six, five, three... still nothing!
There was only one dumpling left in the bowl. Chuanjie, the youngest, looked at it helplessly and wanted to stretch out his chopsticks but didn't dare.

Wei Chunfang looked at this and that, and finally said:

"Dad, this is the only one. The money is here. Just eat. You are the head of the family. If you get rich, our family will get rich."

Zhu Kaishan was not polite and opened his mouth to bite the dumpling.

Everyone held their breath and prepared to cheer.

But Zhu Kaishan swallowed the dumplings with his mouth closed, but he still didn't make a lot of money!
Wei Chunfang was confused:
"No, I clearly remembered to put the money in?"

Zhu Kaishan put down his chopsticks and said, "Shui Sui Ping An, let's take a look at the pot."

He thought the dumplings were broken and the money fell into the pot. The noodles here were not as strong as the ones back home and they couldn’t be wrapped!
Everyone rushed to the stove. When they looked at the bottom of the pot, they were stunned. The bottom of the pot was empty, just some pieces of dough, and there was no money.

Darling, there won't be any supernatural events, right?
Suddenly, Zhu Chuanren chuckled:
"Here's the money!"

Chuan Wen suddenly rushed over and said:

"San'er, when did you eat it? Why didn't I see it?"

"That's right, San'er, you ate without saying a word, which made me anxious in vain!" Wei Chunfang couldn't help but pat him.

Chuanjie was still smart. Seeing that the third brother was silent with his hands behind his back, he smacked his lips and said:

"Third brother, you are cheating. Did you secretly mark the dumplings when my mother was making them?"

Everyone was stunned and looked at Zhu Chuanren, wanting to see how he would answer.

Zhu Chuanren nodded with a smile:

"So, whether you can make a fortune from this depends on human effort. When my mother made a lot of money, I secretly pinched off a small piece of the dumpling. When the dumplings were taken out of the pot, put on a plate and served on the table, I ate them secretly."

Zhu Kaishan raised his head and laughed:
"Okay, you boy, you have used Sun Tzu's art of war in eating dumplings. You never tire of being deceitful. Haha, good! You deserve to make a fortune!"

Just like that, Chuanren took the lead in making a fuss, and the feeling of the New Year suddenly came out. Chuanwu and Chuanjie set off firecrackers in the courtyard, Chuanwen and Xian'er sat on the kang and cut out the "happy" characters and window grilles.

The two old men were leaning against the wardrobe, chatting about every detail of the past years. Only Chuanren was sitting alone by the window, staring blankly at the two figures running back and forth in the courtyard.

Zhu Kaishan looked at him without moving for a long time and couldn't help shouting:
"San'er! San'er?" "Hey! Dad!" Zhu Chuanren came back to his senses.

"What are you thinking, so lost in thought?"

Looking back at his old mother's kind smile, he smiled and said:

"I'm thinking about what happens after the New Year."

"Are you in a hurry to go panning for gold? Don't worry, you have to wait until spring comes when the flowers bloom. You can't do it now, the ice hasn't even melted yet."

Zhu Chuanren nodded, he still knew this knowledge:
"Dad, you should be aware of the golden veins over there at Old Jin Gou, right?"

Zhu Kaishan knew what he meant and nodded slightly:

"Let's go and talk alone."

He moved his buttocks off the bed and motioned Chuanren to come to the main room to talk.

Wei Chunfang rolled her eyes at them:
"It's nothing. I just think I'm in the way. Okay, you two are chatting while I cut paper with Xian'er and the others!"

When he came to the main room and looked at his wife's figure, Zhu Kaishan lowered his voice and said:

"You want to seize the gold mine?"

Zhu Chuanren affirmed:

"Yes, there is chaos in the customs now, and each place is doing its own thing. As long as we block the information in time, we can ensure that the government will not notice it. As for the bandits."

He paused, intending to provoke Zhu Kaishan:
"Dad, can you still hold a gun?"

This gun is not that gun. The gun he is talking about is a gun that can kill people, not a hunting cannon.

Zhu Kaishan's pupils shrank, his energy and blood surged, and he looked at his son, his eyes flashing:
"There's no turning back if we do this. If something goes wrong, it won't be easy for us to stabilize our life."

Zhu Chuanren raised his hand and interrupted his father's words with a firm look:
"Dad, if you want to achieve great things, you must not look forward or backward. If you are afraid of wolves in the front and tigers in the back, you might as well grow and sell sweet potatoes at home!"

Well, even after talking about this, Zhu Kaishan still doesn't know that his son has made up his mind, and it's useless for the King of Heaven to come.

He took a deep breath, moved his lips, and whispered:
"Just relying on the two of us is not enough. I'm afraid there are 50 to [-] bandits over there, plus the government."

Zhu Chuanren pursed his lips, looked at Xian'er's back lying on the table, and said lightly:

"These days, there are many people who dare to fight for money, but when the time comes, dad, you have to stand up. I'm too young, they won't believe me!"

Zhu Chuanren even considered this point, and Zhu Kaishan felt that he could not figure out this son at all.

But the brave ones will be overpowered to death, and the timid ones will be starved to death.

If it weren't for Zhu Chuanren, I'm afraid Zhu Kaishan wouldn't be so desperate anymore, but after being seduced by his son, the Zhu Kaishan who made trouble with the Boxers back then is back!
"I understand. If He Laosi is willing, it will be easy. He has several useful people under him, and they all know the direction of the gold veins!"

Zhu Chuanren opened his mouth. He wanted to tell He Laosi not to count on him. According to the plot, that unlucky guy might have already gone to the west.

But he still held back the words. After all, the matter was too sensational, and he couldn't say it. If he told the truth, he couldn't explain it!

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, it was a sunny day. Xia Yuanzhang sent people to call Zhu Kaishan to Yuanbao Town, and called Niu Dejin, Jin Baotou and other guests to treat him to a drink.

Xia Yuanzhang grabbed the wine glass, held it in one hand, faced Zhu Kaishan and said loudly:
"Brother Kaishan, I have been wanting to buy you a drink since I arrived in Yuanbao Town to thank your family for saving my life, but I haven't found the time. Today is the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. I will offer you a glass of wine to express my gratitude. I will do it first. "

Zhu Kaishan had a drink with him, and then he laughed loudly. The echoes in the hall were so loud that it made people's eardrums numb:

"You, Shopkeeper Xia, why do you keep talking about life-saving grace? Isn't it just a few pancakes? What's there? Don't mention it again, do you hear me? I'm going to fall out if you mention it again! Drink! "
