Blue, Red and White Dark Abyss Cauldron

Bai Yixing hurried back to the main hall and sat down, pretending nothing had happened.

A friend jokingly asked him why it took him so long to defecate and urinate, and whether there was something wrong with his genitals.

Bai Yixing pushed him and said, "I'm counting on my fingers outside. My future wife Ling Shuxue will be here soon and will give me a big problem."

Naturally, no one believed it and said that it was impossible for the woman to come out to see anyone when proposing marriage.

Just as he finished speaking, Ling Jiuhua and his wife walked in from the side door. Behind them, a woman wearing a goose yellow velvet cloud dress and a snow-white veil on her head walked in gracefully, supported by her maid Cui Zhuer.

Ling Jiuhua's eldest daughter and second daughter have both married, so this woman must be Ling Shuxue.

Except for Bai Yixing, everyone else heard that Ling Shuxue had a black ghost fish spot on her face, which was extremely ugly. No wonder she wore a veil. They thought that Bai Yixing, such a handsome man, had to marry an ugly woman because of the blood marriage contract made by the previous generation. It was really pitiful. Who would have thought that he was actually ecstatic at this time?

Without waiting for Ling Jiuhua's family to speak, Bai Yixing said directly: "Uncle Ling, you and my father made a marriage contract written in blood because my Bai family was prosperous back then. Unfortunately, my family is not as prosperous as before now, but the changes in it are all due to fate. You can't blame my grandfather, my father, or me..."

Ling Jiuhua nodded with a cold face and said, "You are right."

Bai Yixing continued, "Before, I relied on my family's wealth to boss people around and do whatever I wanted. I was young and ignorant, and you looked down on me. I deserved it!"

Ling Jiuhua's face flushed, and he said, "My dear nephew, what are you talking about? Your father and I are close friends, how could I look down on you?"

"But I am sincere to Sister Shu Xue. I am willing to turn over a new leaf for her and never let down my father-in-law and mother-in-law's high hopes."

Ling Jiuhua cursed inwardly, this boy is so shameless, I haven't even agreed to your proposal yet, and you actually start calling me "father-in-law and mother-in-law".

Ling Shuxue scolded: "What are you yelling about, Bai? It's not that easy for me to agree to your marriage proposal!"

Bai Yixing smiled and said, "I guess Sister Shuxue will definitely give me a big problem. She will either ask me to learn martial arts and open the Force, or ask me to revive the family business and make as much money as my grandfather did when he was alive. Am I right?"

After these words were spoken, the Ling family was stunned. They thought that the rumor in Bingcheng that the young master of the Bai family was extremely smart was indeed true. Could it be that he really was a talent and we were the ones who misjudged him?

Ling Shuxue said, "You are right. If you want me to agree to your proposal, you must earn all the wealth your grandfather had when he was alive..." After a pause, she continued, "If you can't earn that much, half of it will be fine. I don't want to go to your house and starve."

When Bai Yixing's friends heard Ling Shuxue say this, they admired him even more.

Bai Yixing laughed and said, "Father-in-law and mother-in-law, please accept my greetings." Then he bowed his head.

Ling Jiuhua quickly supported him and said, "You haven't met Shu Xue's requirements yet, so you can't call him that. And Shu Xue hasn't made it clear yet that you have to revive the family business within three years, and it won't count after three years."

When Bai Yixing heard Ling Jiuhua suddenly add a new requirement of "three years" to the original request, he almost cursed. He thought to himself that I've heard from my father and mother that when my grandfather was alive, the family treasure was piled up like a mountain, but now there is not even one tenth of what it was back then. You want me to build a family business as big as my grandfather's in three years, you might as well just tell your daughter not to get married!

Ling Jiuhua said proudly, "My dear nephew, it's not that my Ling family intends to embarrass you. It's just that Shu Xue has never suffered much since she was a child. If she doesn't even have enough food to eat and warm clothes to wear in your house, her mother and I are really worried about her going there. As for the three-year limit, it's also a last resort. We can't let Shu Xue wait for you until you are old, right?"

Bai Yixing glanced at Ling Shuxue, who was wearing a light veil on her head, and her beautiful face with a hint of anger immediately emerged in his mind. He suddenly became proud and said loudly, "Okay, three years is three years! Father-in-law and mother-in-law, when the time comes, I, Bai Yixing, will come back to propose marriage in a grand manner!"

Ling Shuxue scolded: "Bai Yixing, stop talking nonsense, I haven't married you yet!"

Bai Yixing smiled and said, "It doesn't matter if I call you late or early. In short, I must marry you!"

After returning from the Ling family, Bai Yixing began to worry again.

When my grandfather was alive, the Bai family must have had a fortune of one or two million gold, but now after converting various things, the maximum they could have was 70,000 or 80,000 gold.

However, he had no idea about the exact amount, so he had to ask the accountant about these things in detail.

After discussing with his mother, Dai, he invited the accountant home and started a careful calculation with him.

Bai Yixing was uneducated and would fall asleep whenever he encountered reading and arithmetic, not to mention these complicated and boring account books. In the end, it was the accountant who cleared more than a dozen account books and reported to his mother and son that if all the industries were converted into cash, the Bai family should be able to collect about 100,000 gold.

Both mother and son were very happy.

The next step is to decide what kind of business to do. In the Snow Country, all industries have been declining in recent years, and most of the people are in poverty. Some profitable businesses are almost all controlled by the powerful in each city. The Bai family is a declining family, and it is extremely difficult for them to get involved again. Moreover, it will take more than ten years to see results.

Bai Yixing slapped his thigh hard and said, "Mother, I want to go to Cangmu Country to do business!"

Dai was shocked by his sudden action and said, "Yixing, Cangmu Country is thousands of miles away. The Bai family suffered a disaster more than ten years ago because of sailing between Anfeng City in Cangmu Country and our Bingcheng. Since then, disasters have continued to occur, leading to the current ruin. Why do you still want to do business there?"

Bai Yixing said, "Mother, the first sentence you told me to recite when I knelt in front of the God Lord was 'Inherit the ancestral system and do business diligently, revive the family business in the future, and prosper Ice City'. How come I have forgotten it now?"

"There's no need to go to Cangmu Country. It's too dangerous."

"Then tell me, what kind of business can we make money in our Snow Country? If we want to revive our family business, I think it's impossible to do business here."

"What if...what if we get into trouble again when we go out to sea?"

"Mother, I haven't even set out to sea yet, and you're already saying such discouraging words. Aren't you cursing me?" After thinking for a while, he said, "How about this? Before I go out to sea, you can help me go to the fortune teller to calculate my fortune. If it's not auspicious, I won't go. I'll only go out to sea if it's auspicious."

Dai lowered her head and thought about this problem, she couldn't make up her mind for a moment.
