Reborn at 60: I Helped My Sister Get Rich Starting from Hunting

Lin Haoyue's study is filled with his paintings and calligraphy.

As Zhang Yang looked at each one, he felt a sense of exhilaration.

Lin Qiushui and Lin Haoyue were talking about the changes of the past year.

As they chatted, Lin Qiushui noticed Zhang Yang stop in front of a painting. Looking at the painting, she smiled and said, "That painting is called 'Autumn Water Sailing on the River.' The little girl on the boat is me when I was ten years old."

Zhang Yang gazed at the autumn scenery spread across the painting, his eyes unusually deep.

Lin Haoyue smiled and said, "Zhang Yang, do you like this painting?"

Zhang Yang nodded, his gaze never leaving the painting: "Yes, it's my favorite."

"Haha, actually this is my favorite too! If you like it, I'll give this painting to you!"

Zhang Yang smiled and looked at Lin Haoyue: "Well then, thank you!"

Zhang Yang once spent a nine-figure sum to acquire this painting, "Autumn Waters and Boats on the River," at an auction.

Then, he cherished it and it hung in his office for more than 20 years.

This is the painting that Mr. Lin Haoyue cherishes and loves the most among all his works.

Zhang Yang couldn't help but raise his hand, his fingertips touching the people and scenery in the painting.

The little girl in the painting is actually Lin Qiushui...

Suddenly, a sense of dislocation and collision between time and space arose in Zhang Yang's heart, creating an extremely subtle emotion.

This connection actually started so early on.

For the next seven days, Zhang Yang and Lin Qiushui stayed in Linchuan City.

Lin Qiushui wasn't actually familiar with Linchuan City, but the two of them still visited many places, listened to storytelling, played chess, and admired flowers.

A week later, they said goodbye to the old man, left Linchuan City and continued south to Hong Kong.

Lin Qiushui was initially worried that since they were new to Hong Kong, they might encounter many inconveniences.

But she was completely overthinking it.

After landing, Zhang Yang took her straight to the largest hotel in Hong Kong at the time. After checking in, Zhang Yang told her to rest first while he went out for a walk. Then, Zhang Yang went directly to discuss business.

For Zhang Yang, opening up the Hong Kong market was actually not difficult at all.

He not only speaks fluent English, but also Cantonese. In addition, he has some basic conversational skills in Japanese, Korean, German, and French.

With the added boost of his former life's business elite CEO aura, he quickly made a bunch of business partners in Hong Kong in less than three days.

Next, Zhang Yang established a medicinal wine company and invested a lot of money to set up a factory and recruit employees, which expanded the scale instantly. After that, he directly bought five shops on several main streets in Hong Kong and renovated them into large shops that only sold medicinal wine.

Once he had accumulated more capital, he became one of the earliest businessmen in Hong Kong to set his sights on real estate, and directly purchased land on the hillside to build villas.

As time went by, Zhang Yang became one of the most well-known and successful businessmen in Hong Kong.

Soon, the end of the year was approaching, and Zhang Yang and Lin Qiushui set off to return home.

The night before they were to leave, the hotel receptionist told them that two people had come looking for them, claiming to be Zhao Dong and A Ting.

Zhang Yang and Lin Qiushui were shocked. They came downstairs and saw the two of them sitting in the lobby, looking around with keen eyes.

"Dongzi!" Zhang Yang exclaimed with delight, and quickly walked over. "What brings you here!"

"Yangzi!"

"Brother Yangzi!"

Zhao Dong and A Ting quickly came to greet them.

Upon seeing Lin Qiushui beside them, they didn't recognize her at all.

In the past few months, Lin Qiushui's complexion has recovered very well. She is young and in the prime of her youth. Without excessive sun exposure, her skin has become fair very quickly.

Her hair has grown a lot. Compared to the short, ear-length hair she had when we first met last year, her hair is now shoulder-length. Now, it's loosely piled up, and when she wears a beautiful and elegant dress, her whole demeanor is graceful and refined.

Lin Qiushui laughed and said, "You recognize Zhang Yang, but you don't recognize me?"

Zhao Dong laughed heartily: "No matter what Yangzi looks like, I'll still recognize her at a glance!"

Then Zhao Dong explained to Zhang Yang that the reason they came here was simply because they missed him so much. In addition, they thought they would take a gamble on whether they could find him after they came here, given the hotel they had mentioned before.

If you can't find it, don't worry, just go back to where you came from.

People are alive, but tracks are inanimate. Does the track that's here today suddenly disappear tomorrow?

Besides, they're not short of money right now, so at worst, they can just treat it as a trip for fun!

So, Zhao Dong came.

Zhang Yang patted him on the shoulder: "Well done, that's the kind of spirit we should have!"

"And another thing, you little rascal," Zhao Dong feigned anger, "you've made it big out there, so you're not planning to come back? We were just saying you weren't doing so well and were too ashamed to come back, but we never expected you to be so successful!"

Lin Qiushui smiled and said, "Zhang Yang is very busy right now, so we canceled all our social engagements and were planning to go back tomorrow. It's good that you're here; we can hand over the shops here to you directly."

Zhao Dong asked in surprise, "What do you mean? You're handing the shop over to us?"

Zhang Yang said, "Well, I was thinking of bringing you all with me when I went back this time. Now that you've come on your own, that's perfect. Let's go back upstairs first."

Because time was limited, there was no small talk after going upstairs. Zhang Yang briefly introduced his situation, then grabbed his coat and led them to the company and shops.

Zhang Yang personally guided them in management, operations, and networking. They already had assistants and store managers; they could gradually learn more about these aspects later.

The next day, Zhang Yang and Lin Qiushui left Hong Kong and boarded the train back home, abandoning their responsibilities.

Zhangjiatun remains unchanged, without the slightest alteration.

When he left, many people were reluctant to see him go.

However, after he actually left, the order of life in Zhangjiatun was not disrupted.

The new militia captain was Zhao Dong, and after Zhao Dong left, Zhang Simao took over.

Upon learning of Zhang Yang's return, everyone came to visit him. He spent three days picking up friends, and by the evening of the third day, Zhang Yang finally had some free time.

As darkness fell, Zhang Yang and Lin Qiushui walked hand in hand through the forests of Jiazigou, watching the golden lines drawn by the setting sun on the horizon.

Lin Qiushui said, "Hong Kong is so prosperous, I thought you would find it difficult to adapt after you came back."

Zhang Yang countered, "You've been abroad, where things should be more prosperous than Hong Kong. Will you feel out of place after coming here as an educated youth?"

Lin Qiushui thought for a moment and shook her head: "It seems I haven't."

“Me neither,” Zhang Yang stopped and looked up at the distant sky. “This is my home, how could I not feel at home?”

The love for one's homeland is etched into the genes of every Chinese person.

His family was destroyed and he left in resentment, going far away from home. He never returned after that.

It's not that I don't want to reply, but I'm afraid that the sight of the scenery will trigger painful memories, so I dare not reply.

Even after he amassed such a large fortune, he still didn't dare.

Things are different now. His family members are all alive and well, and things are getting better and better.

He also found his love.

Zhang Yang gripped Lin Qiushui's hand tightly. In the decades that followed, as the wheels of time churned and rolled, they faced it together.
