The next day, the Zhan family announced to the outside world that the second young lady had died of an emergency, and a funeral was held. Anyway, she was just a concubine and the second daughter-in-law didn't have much to do, so they did it hastily.Ji Tianhong was temporarily confined in a small remote courtyard, and the servants around her all had new faces, even the people in the second young master's courtyard changed a round.

For a month, Zhan Yunxiang pretended to be depressed and hid in his room all day, but he was actually practicing.The whole Zhan family said that they did not expect that the second young master Zhan was usually irritable, but he had a sincere affection for the second young lady. Even Zhan Zuwang and Mr. Ji's family thought that it was because of Tianhong that Yunxiang was hit hard, and even Pinhui came to comfort his son. She said that she would find him a better wife than Tianhong in the future, Yunyun.

after one month.After breakfast that day, Yun Xiang did not go back to his room but followed Zhanzu to the study, claiming that he had something to discuss with his father.

Yun Xiang put on a lifeless look and said to Zhan Zuwang that he is very uncomfortable at home now. Every day when he sees people at home, he will think of what happened that morning, and he does not want to resent his elder brother for this, and he knows The Zhan family will definitely be inherited by Yunfei in the future, so he wants to go out for a walk, see if he can start a career without relying on his father and elder brother.

Yun Xiang's original intention was to get Zhan Zuwang to agree to his going out for development, and it would be even better if he could provide some funds.Unexpectedly, Zhan Zuwang was reminded by Yunxiang that because of Ji Tianhong's incident, Yunxiang secretly hated Yunfei and Yunfei would fight for the family property, so he decided to separate the family in advance. This is really a surprise.If it hadn't been for the affair, Yunxiang thought Master Zhan would never let Yunxiang get out of the Zhan family's control, it must be for the Zhan family to do a good job for the Zhan family and his eccentric father's intentions.

In the early morning of the next day, Zhan Zuwang announced at the dinner table that he would separate the family for Yunfei and Yunxiang, and that Yunfei would inherit the Zhan family from now on, ignoring Zhan Yunfei's objection.

In the next few days, people in the exhibition garden were panicked, and even Pin Hui approached Yun Xiang several times to discuss countermeasures, but Yun Xiang only told her to let nature take its course.

ten days later.The Zhan family gathered in Zhanyuan, and invited several clan elders and well-known acquaintances in the city to testify.Zhanzuwang allocated 5 mu of land in the countryside to Yunxiang, a grain and oil store, a cloth shop, a teahouse in the city, plus a small house near Zhanyuan and [-] yuan ocean.The rest of the property belongs to Yunfei.Everyone who heard it was slightly surprised and immediately returned to normal. Pinhui immediately called it unfair, but what her little aunt said was useless, and the eldest wife finally smiled comfortably.As for Zhan Yunfei, he is not a fool, how could he object.Anyway, he has never treated Yun Xiang as a brother, so how can he care that he will not live well in the future.

Zhan Yunxiang doesn't know what Zhan Zuwang thinks, even if he doesn't like the concubine son, but the second son's millions of wealth is not even a tenth, so is it necessary for the two sons to be so harsh on the younger son? I'm afraid that if it wasn't for Ji Tianhong's matter, there wouldn't even be this point, and there would be even less.

Yun Xiang didn't care anymore, no matter what others said, he was indifferent, and he didn't mind if Master Zhan was willing to let his eldest son throw money into the water.

Within half a month, Yunxiang packed up the small house assigned to him, chose an auspicious day, and moved there with Aunt Hui who was full of displeasure, forgetting his newly adopted Aunt Hong in the exhibition garden .

After Zhan Yunxiang settled in his new home, he sorted out his property first, met with a few stewards, and gave away 1 yuan in the cloth village that he didn't understand.Grain and oil stores and teahouses remained in stable operation.

A few days later, Aunt Hui suddenly heard that Zhan Yunfei and Zhan Zuwang had quarreled several times because of a singer.

Yun Xiang thought he was going to go out to escape, and if he stayed in Tongcheng, Zhan Zuwang would definitely come to him.So he told Pinhui that he was going out to do business, took a few entourages and all the cash and went straight to Shanghai.It is the early years of the Republic of China, and the real estate in the Shanghai Concession is still rising. He has no business talent, so he can only participate in these industries that are sure to make money.

After Zhan Yunxiang arrived in Shanghai, he realized that his tens of thousands of oceans could not even afford a villa with a garden in Shanghai, so he could only buy a small two-story building with a facade facing the street in the French Concession, with a big one attached to the back. courtyard.There are five rooms in front, which are relatively spacious. Yunxiang decided to open a "women's shopping paradise" after buying it and redecorating it.The first floor sells some brand-name cosmetics and small accessories, and the second floor sells millinery, pajamas and popular leather bags for women.There is also a special corner with tables and chairs for guests to rest.

The only reason why he opened this kind of store for women with good family income is because he has no background at all in Shanghai, and he is afraid of being suppressed by other big businessmen with strong backgrounds in other livelihood industries.Furthermore, the streets around this house are all well-to-do, and those rich ladies and rich ladies are all consumers. After all, women's money is easy to earn!

In fact, Zhan Yunxiang is very keen on the real estate industry in the concession, but he has no money and no influence, and Shanghai Bund is full of foreign forces, warlords, wealthy families and gangsters, and he, a powerless and powerless little man, cannot intervene.

After choosing an auspicious day, Yunxiang's shop officially opened.The shop is dressed in uniform, and all pretty girls act as salespersons. Three days before the opening, Yunxiang announced that all products in the shop will be discounted by [-]%. The psychology of women's love to take advantage of small advantages has attracted many people to enter the shop to watch.Every day is bustling, but it also got off to a good start.Seeing that the business was good, Yunxiang launched the VIP system while the iron was hot, which is the modern membership consumption, which must be paid first before consumption. The pre-deposit has a minimum limit, and all VIPs get a [-]% discount.As soon as this move came out, many noble ladies immediately applied for VIP cards, consumption was second, and being able to highlight their identities was the main thing.Seeing this situation, Yunxiang decided to wait for the right time to launch three grades of VIP cards, gold, silver, and ordinary, based on personal consumption.

After a few days, the bustle of opening the door subsided a bit, and Yun Xiang left two attendants with him to watch the store, and stopped appearing in the store every day.As early as when he was decorating the facade, he asked people to build three bungalows in the large yard behind as the storekeeper's residence, which could also be used as a warehouse.

Zhan Yunxiang had already thought about it when he left Tongcheng, but now he is afraid that Tongcheng will not be peaceful in another ten years.When Japan invades China and World War II breaks out, Shanghai is fine as a place where elites gather, but a small place like Tongcheng will inevitably be invaded by ruthless officials and rebels and bandits.Now he is just taking the lead, and when the business here settles down, he will sell the assets of his hometown and bring them to Shanghai, and keep them now just in case there is a way out if things fail here.He knew that as the war escalated in the future, the houses in the Shanghai Concession would become more and more expensive, because at that time, the rich and powerful would all settle here for safety.He has to raise money to buy a house as soon as possible. It is too wasteful to rent a house now.well!Unexpectedly, when he returned to the old society, he would still be a house slave.

Yun Xiang thinks that although the store needs to be taken care of by himself, it is not impossible to do without others.When he first came to this world, he thought about getting a diploma. After all, Chinese people always have a complex of education, and he didn't want to only have a middle school education.At the beginning, halfway through the original military academy, he was called back home, which counted as two years of studying in vain.Besides, he had no interest in fighting.He is planning to take a more practical major in Shanghai, maybe it will be useful in the future.

After some investigation, Zhan Yunxiang was preparing to take the entrance examination for finance at St. John's University in Shanghai. I heard that he would graduate after only three years of study, and he would not be too old until he was under 30 years old.

In the following days, Yun Xiang worked very hard while reviewing his homework and managing the store.

More than half a year later, the store's business was on the right track, with a fixed purchase channel, and a stable source of customers. The monthly net income was more than 2000 yuan, which is considered very good.It was also the date of the college entrance examination, and Yunxiang's hard work for the past six months was not in vain, and he was finally admitted with a score slightly higher than the admission threshold.

Just as the start of the university was approaching, Yun Xiang received a letter from Zhan Zuwang ordering him to go home. The letter didn't mention anything, but asked him to go back immediately.He gave the messenger boy ten dollars, and the boy told him everything.

It turned out that Zhan Yunfei was infatuated with a singing girl named Xiao Yufeng, and because of this, he quarreled with Zhan Zuwang and insisted on marrying that singing girl.As for the business at home, Zhan Yunfei didn't care to take care of it and made it a mess.

Zhanzu hoped that this meant that Yunxiang would go back to cheer him on, clean up the mess by the way, and return it to Zhan Yunfei after the Zhan family's property was sorted out.Master Zhan is dreaming!

He will not give up his future just because of the bullshit at home like the original owner did.So, Zhan Yunxiang wrote back a letter to Mr. Zhan, saying that now that he and his elder brother have separated, it is inconvenient to intervene in the Zhan's family business, and that his elder brother's marriage is decided by his parents, and it is even more difficult for him as a younger brother to take care of him. .His business in Shanghai is also inseparable from people. If he has no power or power here, if he doesn't pay attention to it, something may happen, and the business will be in vain.At the same time, I wrote a letter to Zhan Yunfei asking him to be filial to the master, not to make the master angry, and advised him to marry a wife and a virtuous person, and also to take into account the reputation of the Zhan family.Of course, this letter was written for Mr. Zhan, so he wouldn't care what happened to Yunfei?Write to Pinhui to tell her not to worry about herself, take good care of her health, he will go home to visit her when he is free, etc.

Zhan Yunxiang bought some Shanghai specialties, novelty gadgets and clothes as gifts for everyone in the family, and asked the boy who delivered the letter to take them back.
