Reborn through an arranged marriage, I awakened the Shennong farming system.

After Su Bai chose Hua Gengchen, the rest would be handled by others; he only needed to wait for news.

Su Bai waited at the Su family's old house for two days, and he was getting really annoyed. He felt that his fate was not very good, and the chances of him being compatible with Hua Gengchen were probably much smaller than others. So Su Bai decided to find something to distract himself, otherwise he would get depressed if he thought about it every day.

"Uncle Xin, if I get married, will I receive a dowry?" Su Bai asked Uncle Xin. Originally, he wanted to ask Su Shengrong directly, but Su Shengrong was too busy and he couldn't find him at all.

He currently needs a lot of money to make plans, and after thinking it over, he can only turn his attention to his dowry.

"Ahem..." Uncle Xin was taken aback by Su Bai's blunt question and gave him a surprised look. Although the country now allows men to marry men, there are still some people who cannot accept it. It is rare to see someone like Su Bai talk about 'dowry' so casually.

Although Su Bai's question caught Uncle Xin off guard, he still answered honestly, "According to the rules, there is indeed one. However, it depends on the head of the family's decision."

Upon hearing this, Su Bai immediately understood what Uncle Xin meant. It meant that the Su family did indeed have a custom of giving dowries, but the amount was up to Su Shengrong.

Su Bai secretly thought to himself that among the illegitimate children, he was the least popular, so his dowry would undoubtedly be the smallest. However, it would still be more than his savings, since the Su family was a wealthy family and it wouldn't be right to give too little.

"When can I receive my dowry?" He desperately needs the money right now.

Uncle Xin was once again taken aback by Su Bai's words. He carefully considered his words and said, "That depends on the head of the family's opinion, but it usually happens after the wedding date is set."

"Ah!" Su Bai sighed regretfully. There was still no news from Hua Gengchen. Who knew when the wedding date would be set? The opportunity in front of them would definitely be missed.

Aside from the dowry, Su Bai really didn't know any other way to quickly get money. He couldn't exactly go out to work, and even if he wanted to, Su Shengrong wouldn't allow it.

Uncle Xin's eyes flickered as he looked at Su Bai. He really couldn't understand Su Bai. From the first moment he saw Su Bai, Su Bai had done many things that were beyond his expectations. However, this was not something that a butler like him could comment on. He had to always remember his duty.

When Su Shengrong returned from the company that evening, Uncle Xin truthfully told him what Su Bai had asked him.

Su Shengrong froze as he took off his coat, and asked seriously, "Is he short of money?"

Uncle Xin replied, "That should be it. According to the investigation, the second young master has been working part-time to support himself. He earned his university tuition himself, and he only had tens of thousands of yuan in savings after selling his house in his hometown."

Su Shengrong took off his coat and handed it to Uncle Xin, his brows furrowing slightly. He said sternly, "What kind of talk is this?" The young master of the Su family only had tens of thousands of yuan in savings. If outsiders knew this, they would probably laugh their heads off!

Since Su Bai has already decided on the marriage alliance, it doesn't matter if the dowry is given in advance. Giving it to Su Bai when he needs it will also make Su Bai remember his kindness. It's a good deal! "Call him to the study later."

"Yes." Uncle Xin bowed slightly in response. Su Shengrong took a few steps forward, then suddenly remembered something and stopped. He turned around and instructed, "Yang Xia is still in a meeting at the company. Tell the kitchen to prepare a late-night snack."

"Yes." Uncle Xin was an old member of the Su family and naturally knew which of the two matters should be handled first. After hanging up Su Shengrong's clothes, Uncle Xin walked directly to the kitchen. After explaining the matters, he went up to the third floor and knocked on Su Bai's door. "Second Young Master, Master wants you to go to the study."

Su Bai was checking the stock market trends, hesitating whether to invest the last 20,000 yuan he had when he heard Uncle Xin's words and jumped out of bed. He thought there was news about the marriage alliance.

After tidying his clothes a little, Su Bai arrived at Su Shengrong's study with a slightly excited expression, took a deep breath, and knocked on the door.

He will soon know the final news about the marriage!

"Come in."

Su Bai pushed open the door and went in. He walked to the desk and called out to Su Shengrong, who was sitting behind the desk with his head down, working on official business. His voice was filled with obvious expectation, "Dad, you wanted to see me?"

Su Shengrong didn't even lift his eyelids before tossing a folder to Su Bai. "Take a look yourself. This is the dowry I've prepared for you. I'll have someone transfer the ownership tomorrow."

Dowry! Su Bai's eyes lit up instantly, and he eagerly opened the document, where he saw a check for three million.

Looking at the string of zeros on the check, Su Bai's eyes crinkled with laughter. He had always thought the Su family was a wealthy family and would certainly be generous. Look, they've spent three million in one go!

With these three million, his current predicament will be easily resolved.

Shifting his gaze from the check, Su Bai noticed a property transfer contract below it. The location was in the suburbs and had little commercial value, but fortunately, the place was quite large; it was a villa that the Su family had bought years ago.

Su Bai was overjoyed to receive such a generous dowry.

In his past life, when he first joined the company, he worked overtime day and night, and his annual salary was only 500,000 yuan. He was also constantly criticized by Su Shengrong. But now, he does nothing, and Su Shengrong gives him a house and 3 million yuan. What does this mean?

This proves that he made the right choice!

In his past life, he must have been out of his mind to have gotten his brain caught in a door, because he was obsessed with proving himself and becoming the rightful head of the Su family.

"Thank you, Dad!" Su Bai said these three words with exceptional sincerity. What was overnight riches? He had become rich in an instant!

It feels so good to be rich!

Su Shengrong waved Su Bai away without even looking up, telling him to leave. To be honest, he wouldn't have given this dowry if it weren't for the possibility that Su Bai might marry into a hidden family. Su Bai was a man, unlike Su Mo and the others, and couldn't carry on the family line, so his help to the Su family was very limited. He was a businessman, so he naturally valued long-term interests more.

For the sake of money, Su Bai didn't mind Su Shengrong's attitude towards him at all, and turned around and left without the slightest hesitation.

What a joke! He's already got the money, who's he going to pretend for?

Acting takes effort, you know!

Back in his room, Su Bai pounced on the bed, rolling around several times. He then picked up the documents, flipping through them over and over again, checking them carefully. Finally, he pulled the blanket over his head and burst into silent laughter.

"Get rich! Get rich!"

After laughing enough, Su Bai started planning what he would do tomorrow. First, he would go to the bank to exchange the money, and then go to that villa to take a look. Before he could defeat Su Yangxia and find the enemy who had drained his blood, he couldn't just sit around and do nothing. He still needed to find something to do.

After Su Yangxia returned home from the meeting, she learned that Su Shengrong had given Su Bai's dowry to him in advance. Su Yangxia was slightly puzzled as to why Su Bai was in such a hurry to use the money.

After thinking for a moment, he took out his phone, typed a text message, and sent it. Only after receiving a reply did he smile with relief.

The next day, after Su Bai had breakfast, he expressed his desire to go out to Uncle Xin, who immediately arranged a car and driver for him.

The car he was in this time was just an ordinary sedan, the kind that wouldn't stand out in traffic. But Su Bai didn't care much. He just wanted to get to the bank as soon as possible to exchange the money so he could buy the shares of 'Ruisheng'!

Beicheng is a big city. When Su Bai took the three million check to the bank, he was only given special service. It was not VIP level at all. However, the bank was still very fast. Su Bai looked at the numbers on his phone and couldn't help but smile.

As Su Bai was leaving the bank, he noticed a mobile phone store next door. After thinking for a moment, he went in, bought a mobile phone, and got a new SIM card.

"Let's go to the villa." Su Bai said to the driver after getting into the car, and the next second he went to work on buying stocks. Last night he had already figured out how to use the three million. He planned to keep five hundred thousand on him for emergencies, and use the rest to buy 'Ruisheng' stock. After three months, when 'Ruisheng' stock rose, he would take advantage of the situation to sell and make a lot of money. He would then use this money to secretly acquire Su's stock, quietly becoming a shareholder of the Su Group, and if necessary, deliver a fatal blow to Su Shengrong and Su Yangxia.

Upon hearing this, the driver nodded slightly, set the destination on the navigation system, and then started the car.

The northern suburbs consist of two parts: the eastern suburbs and the western suburbs. The Su family's old residence is in the eastern suburbs, while this villa is in the western suburbs, next to a large mountain.

Compared to the wealthy population clustered in the eastern suburbs, the western suburbs are much sparsely populated, mainly because there is a mountain in the western suburbs, making it less suitable for development.

Su Bai kept thinking about what he could do with this villa.

Just as he was deep in thought, the car suddenly stopped. Su Bai's body lurched forward due to inertia, but thankfully he was wearing a seatbelt, which prevented him from hitting the seat.

"Second Young Master, I'm sorry!" The driver apologized hastily upon seeing this, "There's no road ahead."

No sooner had the driver finished speaking than a sweet voice came from the navigation system, "Go straight ahead. There are 2 kilometers left on this journey."

Su Bai looked at the driver suspiciously, his eyes darting between the driver and the navigation system. The driver was sweating profusely; he had only been working for the Su family for a short time and really didn't want to lose this low-paying job. So, with a pained expression, he said, "There really is no road! Look!" The driver pointed to the front of the car, where there was a brightly lit sign with the words "Private Property, No Trespassing" written in large letters.

Su Bai looked at the driver speechlessly, "Is it possible that this private territory refers to that villa?"

The driver looked at Su Bai blankly and whispered, "But Second Young Master, the family crest on that sign isn't from the Su family..."

"Huh?" Reminded by the driver, Su Bai turned his head to look at the sign again and sure enough, he saw a dragon-shaped mark in the lower left corner. "It really isn't!" But why is the navigation telling me to go straight and saying there are only two kilometers left?

Su Bai craned his neck to look at the destination on the navigation, and after confirming several times that it was indeed the address of the villa, he exclaimed, "What kind of lousy navigation is this? It can't even find a place!"

The driver was baffled as to why the navigation system, which was usually extremely accurate, had malfunctioned today. He hurriedly took out his phone, opened the navigation app, and said, "Young Master, I'll search again on my phone right away. Please wait a moment!"

Su Bai felt that this little incident had ruined his good mood, as if it meant that his upcoming trip would not be very pleasant.

"Found it! We should have turned right at that intersection." The driver quickly found the correct route and exclaimed excitedly. He put his phone on the shelf, told Su Bai to sit properly, and restarted the car.

As the "No Trespassing" sign slowly disappeared from sight, Su Bai felt a strange unease, though he couldn't quite put his finger on it.

After finding the right road, the car quickly stopped in front of the villa.

However, Su Bai really hoped that the driver had taken the wrong road again, but in fact, the driver had confirmed several times that this was the Su family villa.

Su Bai opened the car door, looked at the villa surrounded by weeds, and his lips twitched a few times.

He was too happy far too soon!

He thought the villa was a fully furnished apartment that he could move into immediately, but when he arrived, he found that it was a rough, unfinished house that was in dire need of construction.

With great effort, Su Bai pushed aside the weeds that were more than a meter tall and cautiously approached the gate of the villa. He took out his key and opened the gate. The yard was also full of weeds. Although they were shorter and fewer in number than those outside the yard, they could not hide the fact that the yard was full of weeds!

He groped his way inside. The empty house felt chilly in the wind, just like Su Bai's mood at that moment.

"**, I've been tricked!" Su Bai spat viciously. He knew Su Shengrong wasn't that kind! He gave him such a large plot of land as a dowry, but all he got was an empty house shell; the rest of the land was overgrown with weeds. The cleanup alone would cost a fortune!

"No, I have to go back and have Uncle Xin arrange for someone to clean it up for me first!" He wasn't going to suffer this loss!

Su Bai turned and walked away without hesitation. As he passed through the bushes, he stepped on something and a stick as thick as a child's arm sprang out from the weeds, hitting Su Bai hard on the forehead and drawing blood immediately.

Su Bai was hit so hard that he saw stars and immediately fainted.

"**, he has to pay for his medical expenses!" This was the only thought that remained in Su Bai's mind before he completely passed out.

The driver was terrified by what he saw. He yelled and grabbed his phone to call an ambulance. So he didn't see that in the instant he turned his head, after the stick that hit Su Bai absorbed the blood, a green light jumped out from the stick and eagerly entered Su Bai's body, finally forming a mark on his wrist.

The instant the light entered Su Bai's body, a mechanical voice sounded in his mind: [Shennong System successfully activated, currently optimizing, please wait...]
