Chapter 610: A man with money is a man, a man without money is a man

"Boss, can you give me an easier job? My brother is not even 18 years old yet, and I'm afraid he can't stand the hardship of working in a factory."

Zhang Pan knew his younger brother well. If he were assigned to work in the factory, he would probably quit after only a few days.

"Pan Pan, your brother's name is Zhang Wang, right?"

Su Mingzhe recalled the plot, and then said with a teasing look:
"Pan Pan, you have been my nanny since August 10th, and it has only been a month now. Count how many times your brother has fought with others? Although your brother is only seventeen, your family can settle the matter with some money. But with your brother's temper and personality, what kind of job can you arrange for him except to work in a factory?"

"Then... can you arrange a higher salary?"

Zhang Pan wants to talk about the price.

She also knows that working in a factory now earns more than 1,000 yuan a month, and better factories can only pay a little over 2,000 yuan.

With this little money, after renting a house in Yanjing, I can't even guarantee food, drink, shelter and urination.

But her younger brother Zhang Wang is used to spending money lavishly. If the salary is not high, he will not be able to continue working.

"There are jobs with higher salaries, but they are good jobs that require dealing with people. Your brother has such a bad temper and gets into fights at every turn. There are so many rich and powerful children in Yanjing. What if your brother offends someone he shouldn't, and then he gets...framed, wouldn't you feel bad?"

Su Mingzhe's words made Zhang Pan frown again.

This won't work, and that won't work either.

Zhang Pan didn't know what to do.

"How about this, I can give you another 300,000 yuan. 200,000 yuan can buy you a house in your county. The remaining 100,000 yuan can be used to let him do some small business. At least he will have enough food and clothing... Panpan, please think about it. What do you think of my arrangement?"

Su Mingzhe is truly kind-hearted and really wants to help Zhang Pan.

If Zhang Pan's younger brother came to the glamorous world of Yanjing, he would probably follow the same path as in the movie in a few days.

Since Zhang Pan is so well-behaved, Su Mingzhe wants to help her more.

"Boss, I listen to you."

When Zhang Pan heard that the man was willing to give her three hundred thousand, her mind went blank and she couldn't listen to anything else.

According to her calculation method, if a man gave her 300,000 yuan, she would just have to accompany him for three or four more years.

After three or four years, I will be in my twenties and it will not be difficult to get married.

And by then my younger brother will be able to start a family and build a career.

"Okay, come here, let me check on you. How's your study progress recently?"

Su Mingzhe sat on the sofa in the living room and patted his thigh.

This time, the nanny was particularly proactive.

after an hour.

Looking at the nanny's eager eyes, Su Mingzhe said slowly:
"Don't worry, I'll keep my word. But the house has to be in your name, to prevent your brother from selling it for money. Also, before giving your brother 100,000 yuan to start a small business, I have to investigate the market conditions in your county first..."

After calming the babysitter, Su Mingzhe changed into clean clothes, left Manyi to the care of the babysitter, and left.

Zhang Pan immediately called his brother to report this good news.

As a result, she just called her brother, and her brother Zhang Wang said:

"Sister, I have already bought the train ticket to Beijing. I will go to Yanjing to see you tomorrow."

"What are you doing in Yanjing?"

When Zhang Pan heard that his brother was coming to Yanjing, he was so scared that his voice changed.

When she introduced her situation in Yanjing to her family, she only said that she worked as a nanny in a big boss's house and earned several thousand yuan a month. However, she did not tell her family that she was no different from a maid in the past and was bullied by her employer every day.

"Sister, don't worry. I will definitely not cause you any trouble after I arrive in Yanjing."

Zhang Wang is already seventeen years old and knows everything he should know.

This time he came to Yanjing, saying that he was seeking refuge with his sister, but in fact he had many ulterior motives.

Zhang Pan was so anxious that he was furious, but he could not stop his brother Zhang Wang from going to Beijing.

In the blink of an eye, it was midnight.

I woke up satisfied in the big flat. Although I found myself sleeping in a strange place after waking up, I was not very scared.

He went to the bathroom to take care of his physiological problems first, and then he remembered to take out his cell phone and call his eldest brother to ask what happened after he got drunk.

After making several calls, Long Xia's phone was finally connected.

After the call was connected, the person who answered the phone was not Long Xia, but Tang Shiyi.

"Hey, Sister Shiyi, why are you holding my brother's phone? Is he with you?"

"Well, your brother is with me. Man, you called me in the middle of the night. Is there something urgent?"

Tang Shiyi is "with" her boyfriend, with a look of tenderness in her eyes.

"Nothing, I just want to ask where I am."

Manyi said that he woke up in the middle of the night and found himself in a strange place. He was a little worried and scared.

"A strange place? You should be at Brother Su's house."

Tang Shiyi took Su Mingzhe away and said something satisfying:
"How about you call me 'Brother Su'..."

"Oh, I'll hang up first."

Manyi suddenly heard footsteps outside the door and thought Su Mingzhe was looking for her, so she quickly hung up the phone.

The person knocking on the door was not Su Mingzhe, but Zhang Pan who had been waiting outside the door.

As long as Su Mingzhe asked Zhang Pan to take good care of him, Zhang Pan would do his duty conscientiously and stay outside the whole time.

The two women introduced themselves to each other.

After knowing that he was at Su Mingzhe's house, Manyi went to bed peacefully.

The next day came in a blink of an eye. Manyi had breakfast and then went back to work at his father Manshiren's pet shop.

Man Shiren was naturally very concerned about his daughter's absence all night, but when he heard that Manyi had stayed at Su Mingzhe's house for the night, he immediately gave up asking any further questions.

In the eyes of many young people, this girl is pretty, but she just doesn’t look girly.

Therefore, Man Shiren was not afraid at all that Su Mingzhe would do anything bad to his daughter.

This is also a different kind of trust.

Zhang Wang came very quickly.

That afternoon, Zhang Wang called his sister and told her that he had arrived at Yanjing Railway Station.

Faced with her brother's sudden arrival, Zhang Pan was a little nervous, but she had to rush to the station to greet him.

After picking up her brother from the station, Zhang Pan acted like a big sister and said to him:

"You're here to play for two days, then go back quickly and don't let it interfere with your studies."

"I'm not going back."

Zhang Wang never expected that even though he had already arrived in Yanjing, his sister would still persuade him to go to school. He couldn't help but get angry:
"You go if you want to go. You study better than me. If you go back for another year, you might be able to get into a good university. If I go back, at most I'll just waste a year's tuition. I won't go back!"

"It's okay if you don't go back. I'll enroll you in a night school so you can learn some skills."

Zhang Pan also guessed that his brother might not obey, so he took out a backup plan:

"Don't you like auto repair? I'll enroll you in an auto repair class and find you a job in an auto repair shop. My boss said that there will be more and more private cars in the future, and it will be very profitable to open an auto repair shop. When you have learned the skills well, you can open an auto repair shop when you return to our county town."

"Sister, are you annoying? I've told you so many times that I'm not going back. I don't want to see that old Wang again."

The 'man surnamed Wang' that Zhang Wang mentioned is the lover of Zhang Pan and Zhang Wang's mother.

Over the years, the Zhang family has been heavily in debt, and it is basically this "Old Wang next door" who takes care of their family.

However, this "Old Wang" did not consider himself an outsider. He would scold and beat Zhang Pan and Zhang Wang at every turn, treating them completely as his own sons.

Zhang Wang is in his rebellious youth, how could he endure such "humiliation"?

This is why this "running away from home" incident happened.

"You, why are you disobedient?"

Zhang Pan didn't expect that his brother would be so stubborn, and he felt extremely aggrieved.

She gave up her dignity and compromised all in order to earn more money so that her younger brother could go to college and have a bright future.

But my younger brother has no ambition at all.

Zhang Wang was annoyed by what he said, so he had to change the subject:

"Sister, please take me home first. I'm tired from sitting on the train."

Speaking of going home, the taxi quickly took the two of them to their destination.

Zhang Wang looked at the dilapidated old neighborhood in front of him and was dumbfounded:

"Sister, why is the neighborhood you live in so shabby? The man who supports you, isn't he just a small boss?"

"Zhang Wang, what nonsense are you talking about?"

Zhang Pan was shocked by his brother's words and hurriedly explained:
"I am a nanny for someone, how can I be kept by someone?"

"Sister, please stop hiding it."

Zhang Wang didn't expect that his sister would still want to lie, and he couldn't help but sneer:
"There are so many young girls working in our village. How much money can a nanny make in a month? How much money can a man keep? Everyone in the village knows this. How long have you been working here? You've sent so much money home. You're not being kept by a man, but the money just fell from the sky?"

Zhang Pan didn't expect that the humiliation he wanted to hide would be easily torn apart by his own brother. While feeling sad, he still thought of his family's reputation and quickly said:

"Don't let our mother know about this."

"This is what our mother told others."

Zhang Wang's words were like a heavy hammer, shattering Zhang Pan's glass heart:

"Do you know what expression our mother had when she said this? She looked so proud, as if you were being kept by a city dweller and had become a government official's wife..."

When talking about this incident, a look of hatred and ferocity appeared on Zhang Wang's face.

Her own sister was being kept by someone, but her own mother did not feel ashamed of it, but was proud of it.

Because of this incident, Zhang Wang has been fighting with many people recently.

However, no matter how many fights we have, we cannot change the reality.

As the two siblings were talking, they walked to the door of the building unit.

Looking at the dilapidated apartment building, Zhang Wang's dissatisfaction was evident on his face:
"Sister, you're not really going to live here, are you?"

"I don't live here. This is a house I rent for you."

Zhang Pan brought Zhang Wang to live in Su Mingzhe's old house and placed his luggage directly in the master bedroom:

"This house costs 2,000 yuan a month to rent. There are things I bought in the refrigerator, and you can cook. Also, you don't know how to use the air conditioner and washing machine, right? I'll teach you... Here's a membership card for a nearby supermarket. There's a few thousand yuan in it. Take it and use it first..."

Zhang Pan gave his brother some instructions and taught him how to use household appliances. Finally, he said reluctantly:

"Brother, where my sister works, there are both male and female hosts. It's not convenient for you to move in, so you can stay here first. If you have any problems, call me... When I'm free, I'll take you around Yanjing City."

Zhang Pan still plans to take his younger brother Zhang Wang out for two days and send him back home when the novelty wears off.

As for what Zhang Wang thinks, does it matter?

It is difficult for a rich man to be a man without money.

A seventeen-year-old kid who didn't even have a hundred dollars in his pocket wouldn't likely receive any woman's attention even if he tried to go into an alley.

Therefore, Zhang Pan was not afraid at all that his younger brother would do bad things.
