During dinner, Erniu was talking nonstop. Sanniu was silent the whole time. Daniu occasionally responded to Erniu. His younger brother was talking more and more. Sometimes he felt like a bee, buzzing in his ears non-stop, which was really annoying.

At night, Sanniu returned to his room and thought about what Erniu said that night. His mother must be suspicious, but he didn't know if she was suspicious of her family members. Or was she suspicious of outsiders? If she was suspicious of her family members, it would be terrible.

What should I do if my mother finds out that I did it? Because of what happened before, my mother already has a bad impression of me, and so do my second and eldest brothers. I feel that my second brother doesn’t care about me as much as before.

Sometimes I feel like he is on guard against me, but it doesn't seem like that, I can't explain the feeling. I just feel weird and uneasy.

Sanniu didn't dare to act rashly this time, and didn't even go to the provincial capital.

A month passed in the blink of an eye.

Sanniu was going to deliver a batch of goods to the provincial capital, and planned to return to the village quickly after delivering the goods to avoid any accidents.

A man put a person on Sanniu's shoulders and said, "It's been a long time since we last met, big brother. Our master misses you very much after not seeing you for so long. Please come with us."

Sanniu was very nervous. What he feared was really coming true.

I just didn't want to meet this person, but I ended up meeting him when I came to the city.

It seems that I am being targeted.

Now I think about it and I regret it very much. I shouldn't have agreed to them in the first place. Now the arrow has been shot and there is no turning back.

After Sanniu entered the restaurant, he saw the man in front of him and said with a smile: "Long time no see."

"It's been a long time since we last met. If I hadn't come to find you, you might have forgotten to come look for me, don't you think?"

"It's mainly because there are too many things going on recently and I'm too busy to handle them all. You see, I've been busy less when I came to the capital. There are only a few people at home but a lot of things to do. There's nothing I can do about it."

"Haha, little brother, you are young and promising. The taste your mother developed is really unique, but it lacks one seasoning, otherwise it would taste exactly the same as your mother's. But your mother is also amazing. In just over 10 days, you have launched several new products, and they are selling very well."

"I've asked my men to buy some too, and they tasted great. The ones with clear soup are okay, but do you know what your mother put in the ones with red oil?"

"Look at what you said. If I knew, I would be the head of the family. Why would I still be the eternal third child?"

"In the previous incident, you guys came out too quickly, and my mother has already suspected that there was a traitor. Now the formula this time is very difficult to obtain. Don't count on me. Everyone in the family is on high alert."

"The formula is with my second brother. He has been very cautious since he was fooled last time. He can't even get into the room."

"Don't count on me this time."

Sanniu said these words angrily and no longer looked at the middle-aged man.

"I understand what you mean. Sometimes it's not something you want to do, it's something you have to do. The two of us are now tied together. If something happens to me, do you think you can get away?"

"If your eldest brother, your second brother, and your mother knew that you were the one who did this, what would they think? They would also treat you in a different way. You have to think about this clearly, don't you think?"

Sanniu took a deep breath and looked at the man in front of him, feeling so angry that his teeth were itching.

"Here is three thousand taels of silver, enough for you to buy a house in the capital. No matter how much these notes are, they are at least a token of our appreciation. We are very generous. You have accomplished such a small thing, and we are giving you so much money."

"Following us is much more promising than following your mother. After all, your mother has more than one son."

The middle-aged man looked at Sanniu with amusement.

How could anyone in the world not like money? Everyone likes it. Those who don’t like it can only say that they don’t have enough money.

Ha ha .

"Brother Sanniu, what do you think? We also want the formula your mother developed later. It would be the best if you can come up with it, but we won't blame you if you can't."

"This three thousand taels of silver is just a small test. As long as you do well in the future, silver will be waving to you continuously."

"Not to mention the houses in the prefectural capital, you can even afford the houses in the imperial capital. Of course, if you need it, we can also help you."

"For example, if you want to be the master of the house, there is no problem."

The middle-aged man said this and looked at Sanniu's expression.

Sanniu didn't feel much when he heard the three thousand taels at first, but when he heard that he could be the master of the family, his eyes lit up.

How could the man not know Sanniu's little thoughts?

Sanniu was not valued at all in his family. His mother's favorite was the eldest son, who managed a lot of the family business. He was just an errand boy.

"Just give me this little benefit. It's like I sold my mother and my family business. No matter what happens, my mother will leave me some of the family business."

"At least I have no worries about food and clothing in this life, so I don't have to worry about this."

"Whatever you want, we will try our best to satisfy you. Of course, as long as we can do it. If it's not too difficult, there will be no problem."

"If you become the head of the family in the future, maybe we can still cooperate, right? After all, your family still has a lot of good things, and everyone in the imperial capital will like them very much."

"It's a pity that your store didn't open in the imperial capital. Now people in the imperial capital will go to the provincial capital to buy things. The supermarket you opened is very popular in the imperial capital. It's just that many people can't get the source of goods. Otherwise, the imperial capital would have opened it a long time ago."

"Sanniu, your mother is too timid. If it were you, your business would definitely be taken to a higher level, don't you think?"

Sanniu knew that this person was just flattering him, and that he was not cut out for business. He was born to be a worker, and he had no luck in becoming a big boss.

"I won't make the seasoning for you anymore. My mother is already suspicious. Don't even think about it. I will consider other things and try my best to get them. That's all I can say. I can't risk my life for a few thousand taels of silver."

"You choose."
