Tao Liangchen
Chapter 27 First Pot of Gold
It was time for the horseback riding lesson.
When it was Su Yehao's turn, he handed his backpack to Baoya Jun to hold.
Baoya Jun was quite nosy. He and his friends had been wondering why Su Yehao brought a backpack with him to ride horses.
Now, he unzipped the backpack and peeked inside.
After seeing what was inside, Baoya Jun shuddered and immediately pushed away his friend He Shaofan's head, quickly zipping the bag back up.
He Shaofan was unhappy about this, and said, "So secretive, you won't even let me see. Did you pack some new Japanese action movies? Are you two trying to hog them without sharing?"
As he spoke, he reached out to grab the bag.
He Shaofan was more curious than anyone else, and he was also a notorious blabbermouth.
He even dared to share the story of his own father going out to find young starlets with Su Yehao and the others, and he was quite gleeful about it, because his father had been kicked out of the house by his mother, and it was said that his face had been scratched, almost making the news.
Baoya Jun lowered his voice and said urgently, "Don't pull! If you break it, Hao-ge will beat you up! It's definitely not what you think. It's all money in here, a lot of money!"
Su Yehao also had money before, and his bag always had thirty to fifty thousand in cash, but Baoya Jun had never been so nervous.
After making wild guesses, He Shaofan's eyes lit up, and he whispered, "Could it be that Hao-ge wasn't joking last time, and he's really preparing a sum of money to go to Hong Kong and treat the model Meow Meow to tea?"
The so-called Meow Meow.
Was actually a model who often appeared on magazine covers, known for being hot and sexy.
Ordinary people could only watch the excitement, but He Shaofan happened to know that it cost about two hundred thousand Hong Kong dollars to invite her to "drink tea for a night."
Clearly marked prices, with many customers.
She was probably one of the most famous socialites in Macau and Hong Kong, with an appearance fee second only to some female stars.
They were all teenagers, and He Shaofan's mind was full of these things all day long. The previous Su Yehao had indeed said that he was going to save money to find Meow Meow.
Looking around.
Baoya Jun looked nervous and said, "It's much more than that! They're all thousand-dollar bills, almost blinding me. I'm worried that Hao-ge secretly took the money from home, and I don't know what he's going to do, bringing so much money to school!"
A few thousand, tens of thousands of spending money, none of the members of this F2+2 group lacked.
Even Zhugan, whose family ran an accounting firm and was "penniless," had a monthly allowance of twenty thousand yuan to socialize with classmates, get to know people in advance, and build relationships.
He Shaofan was skeptical, and secretly unzipped the bag and took a look, blurting out, "Holy crap!"
After exchanging glances with Baoya Jun, He Shaofan said excitedly, "Hao-ge is really rich, they're all thousand-dollar bills, at least two or three million!"
"Shhh! Keep it down, you're going to get us killed!"
Baoya Jun continued to look around. His family was actually very rich, and they were well-connected in both the legal and illegal worlds, but having money at home and having money of their own were two completely different things.
The elders at home might buy luxury cars worth millions, but they wouldn't suddenly give them millions in cash.
As a result, Baoya Jun couldn't help but feel that Su Yehao had secretly taken the money from home.
...
Wearing a gentlemanly riding outfit, with leather boots on his feet.
The price of customizing such an outfit was tens of thousands of dollars, and most students had one made every year. No wonder there were rumors that even ordinary middle-class families couldn't afford the expenses of their children in this school.
What was really impressive was that the tall, blood-red thoroughbred horse under him, worth millions, was also Su Yehao's private property, and no other students could ride it.
Since there was a riding class this semester, it was temporarily boarded at the school, at the cost of eighty thousand yuan a year.
Su Yehao rode around on the horse for a while, looking at the green grass, trees, sunshine, and butterflies, and his mood was simply wonderful.
Compared to before, although he was still in class, the level of enjoyment was definitely worlds apart, a huge difference.
When he returned to the rest area, Baoya Jun and He Shaofan hadn't even waited for him to stand still before asking, "Hao-ge! Where did the money in your bag come from?"
Su Yehao tensed up subconsciously, but then he remembered that the situation was different now, and his new friends were all from wealthy families.
He took off his hat, rubbed his hair, and Su Yehao's lips curled up, "You might not believe it, but I really earned my first pot of gold, as for the source, don't ask... it's hard to say."
As soon as he reminded them not to ask, He Shaofan leaned in and whispered:
"Is it interest rolling into interest rolling into interest? Bring me along if there's such a good business! The family trust sends me fifty thousand US dollars every month, starting after I turn eighteen, and I can't spend it all every month, so I've saved quite a bit now."
"Fifty thousand... US dollars?"
Su Yehao was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered that he also had an insurance policy worth more than eight million Hong Kong dollars that was about to mature.
The children of wealthy families were indeed different from the children of ordinary families.
Take He Shaofan for example, he had a family trust under his name since he was in elementary school.
After he came of age, he would start receiving fifty thousand US dollars every month, until he died of old age or the trust went bankrupt. The main purpose of a family trust was to pass on wealth, and the possibility of bankruptcy was relatively small, mainly investing in low-risk, stable financial projects.
This also meant that He Shaofan, a wealthy child, had a guaranteed monthly living expense that was the dream of others.
Thinking about it this way, Su Yehao sighed.
Comparing people can really be infuriating, but fortunately he was no longer the person he used to be, otherwise he would definitely be drooling with envy.
Baoya Jun continued to press him, but Su Yehao refused to reveal the source.
This surprised Huang Zewen, who was sitting next to him, as he thought that Su Yehao had kept his word and was keeping his secret for him.
Thinking back to his previous kicking him when he was down, specifically waiting at the school gate to ridicule his father's business failure... Comparing the two, Huang Zewen actually felt a little inferior, and his impression of Su Yehao also changed.
——————————
In his previous life, he had been tired for more than ten years.
Su Yehao clearly planned to take the opportunity to rest for a while, do nothing, and enjoy the despised life of a second-generation rich kid.
However, things went awry.
A first pot of gold of three million Hong Kong dollars was delivered to him.
Although his parents were quite wealthy, Su Yehao couldn't help but feel that his parents' money and his own money were different, after all, he couldn't freely dispose of so much wealth at home, and could only benefit from it.
This money was different. This three million was earned by Su Yehao through hard work and ability.
Although he earned it in a daze, the meaning was different.
Only then did Su Yehao remember that his old man already knew about the existence of these three million, and he had personally made the call, and he immediately regretted it.
Otherwise, if he had hidden this money and continued to take living expenses from the Second and Third Aunts, wouldn't he be making money on both sides, feeling great?
That evening.
After school, he was about to go to the bank to deposit the money, so as not to have it taken away when he got home.
Su Yehao received a call from his Second Aunt, asking him to buy some sandalwood on the way, muttering that she hadn't made offerings to the God of Wealth today.
As he walked.
A thought suddenly occurred to him. Su Yehao suddenly realized that he seemed to know what weakness his father had that he could exploit...
