From a freeloader to a world leader

Chapter 27 Conspiracy

Sun Shan heard a burst of chaotic footsteps through the sound of gongs and drums, coming from the yard in front.

He found that his hearing and recognition abilities had improved compared to when he first woke up.

He had a vague feeling that these people should be Jacky Cheung and his two sons and the shopkeeper Zhang Yuhe. After thinking about it for a while, he felt that what happened tonight might be inevitable.

Otherwise, the entire Zhang family wouldn't have come here together.

Sun Shan put away the wooden stick in his hand, and when the few people walked to the door, he opened the tightly closed wooden door.

Because, during this period of time Sun Shan had to practice singing, so naturally he had to play the drums and find the rhythm.

Some time ago, he designed three lambskin drums of different sizes, large, medium and small, and modified a cymbal made from a gong, which basically had the functions of a drum set a thousand years later.

Through these few days of practice, he gradually found the feeling.

He felt that, although he was not as good as the professional singers and drummers of a thousand years later, he should be able to come up with a surprising success in this world of babbling and dragging out old-fashioned tunes.

Besides, he feels that his singing skills are pretty good.

When I was in the special forces, I also received some music theory training for a period of time in order to carry out undercover missions.

There is no problem with the various transitions between true and false voices, and the rhythm of pronunciation and breathing.

The music experts who trained me were amazed and said that I have a talent in this area.

"My dear nephew-----"

Jacky Cheung was almost at the door when he suddenly heard the drumbeats inside stop.

Then the wooden door suddenly opened from the inside, with a slight surprise. It seemed that Sun Shan had good hearing. He could even hear the footsteps of several of his own people amid the chaotic drum sounds.

"Uncle, you are here."

Sun Shan responded, then expressed a little surprise to the few people following behind him, and greeted them warmly: "Why are you all here? Uncle, you can just call me over, how can you trouble me to come here in person?"

"Haha----" Jacky Cheung laughed twice and walked quickly towards the door, saying, "Uncle knows you are busy. I heard from Yuliang that you have been working and studying recently, and you are planning to tell stories or something, so I came here by myself."

"Uncle, come in and sit down. I'm just messing around."

As he spoke, Sun Shan rolled his eyes at Zhang Yuliang, knowing that he had informed on the secret.

In fact, it doesn’t matter whether you report it or not, everyone will know about it in a few days.

What's more, I just keep banging on about for nothing, and even a fool would be able to see something.

"It's good to be young!"

When Zhang Xueyou passed by Sun Shan, he patted his shoulder and smiled with some envy and joy: "Uncle, if I were young, I would have had your ideas and courage."

"Uncle, you are too kind. Please take a seat first."

As he spoke, Sun Shan pulled out a wooden bench from the room and said with admiration, "Uncle, it is already remarkable that you have achieved what you have today. When I am old, I will be very satisfied if I can have a happy family and a successful career like you!"

These words made Jacky Cheung, who had been planning and doing business all his life, feel very happy and deeply felt that there were people who could understand his voice.

"Ha ha ha ha----"

He sat down happily and laughed heartily: "My dear nephew, you are too modest. Your future achievements will definitely be far more than what your uncle has achieved."

As he spoke, Jacky Cheung sighed with emotion: "My dear nephew, your uncle's life has not been easy. He gave up his studies at the age of 18. At that time, the family was penniless. With his passion and hard work for decades, he finally had the little fortune he has today. It was not easy!"

"That's right. There is no such thing as free income in this world. Every penny of income and every ounce of silver is stained with my own sweat and tears!"

Sun Shan looked at Zhang Xueyou, who was somewhat moved by what he said, and said with a very understanding look: "I understand very well how difficult it was for my uncle. I also believe that my uncle must have suffered a lot in the past to have the comfort he has today."

These words made Jacky Cheung's eyes red.

He felt that Sun Shan, whom he was not very familiar with, understood his hardships better than his nephew who had followed him for twenty or thirty years.

As for comfort?

Are you really at ease?

If he didn't have the status of a juren to protect his fortune of tens of thousands of taels, his family might be ruined and he would die within a year or two.

He has seen too many examples of bankruptcy over the past few decades.

Many times, it is not due to improper management, but the lack of appropriate identity matching that causes others to forcibly take away the property.

Therefore, after Fan Jin passed the imperial examination, some wealthy men would voluntarily offer their property and beautiful women to him in order to gain the protection of Mr. Fan after he passed the imperial examination.

"My dear nephew, you are sober, a rare sight in this world!"

Jacky Cheung praised with red eyes, then he calmed down, thought for a while, and said simply: "My dear nephew, since you understand your uncle, then your uncle will say it directly. After all, we are all family."

This made Sun Shan stunned for a moment. What did it mean?

We are all family. Are you really going to marry your daughter to me?

"Uncle, please speak up. I'm all ears!" Sun Shan slowly sat down next to Zhang Yuliang, stretched out his hand and said, "If uncle needs any help, just let me know."

"it is good!"

Jacky Cheung slapped the square table beside him and said, "Since you are happy, my dear nephew, I will be more straightforward as well----"

As he spoke, Jacky Cheung paused for a moment and said firmly: “My dear nephew, I want to give you 20% of the shares of this restaurant, and you can help me plan the future direction.”

"How can this be done!"

Hearing Zhang Xueyou say this, Sun Shan stood up in shock and waved his hands anxiously: "Uncle, this is absolutely not allowed. How can I, your nephew, deserve this 20% stake?"

"Don't be impatient, nephew. Sit down and listen to me first."

When Jacky Cheung saw Sun Shan’s eager look of refusal, he felt a little reluctant, but when he remembered that the shares were still in his daughter’s hands, he felt much more comfortable.

Sun Shan looked at the other people in the room and saw that they had no reaction. He knew that this must have been discussed by the Zhang family.

Well, the Zhang family will definitely have demands, and they will be quite big ones, so what should I do?

Rejection? Or acceptance?

If he refused, he would probably fall out with the Zhang family and would have to find a new way to make a living.

If you accept, what will be the conditions?

Sun Shan thought about it and slowly sat down: "Uncle, tell me, is there anything I can do to help you?"

Seeing Sun Shan like this, Jacky Cheung sighed in his heart: This kid is really a character. He comes from a very poor family, but when faced with a huge fortune of more than a thousand taels that fell from the sky, he actually thought about his way out. It's really rare.

Thinking of this, Jacky Cheung became more determined to give the 20% shares to Sun Shan, and at the same time, perhaps marry his daughter to him.

"My dear nephew, I will give you this 20% share. I have only one request, which should not be difficult for you to fulfill."

"Really? Then uncle, tell me about it."

Sun Shan smiled in disbelief: "I can't believe that there is such a thing as a pie falling from the sky."

"Ha ha ha ha----"

Xian Xueyou smiled happily: "My dear nephew, you are really careful. You are so handsome and talented. The pie from my Zhang family really hits you."

As he said that, without waiting for Sun Shan to speak again, Zhang Xueyou slowly said: "My dear nephew, the condition for me to give you 20% of the shares is that you marry my Zhijing!"

"What?" Sun Shan stood up in surprise and said, "I married Jingjing, and you give me 20% of the shares, is that the only condition?"

"Yes, that's the condition!"

Zhang Xueyou nodded, and then added: "However, the shares are in Zhijing's hands. You only have the right to operate and share. Under no circumstances may you sell or transfer them. If it works, in the future when our Zhang family's Jun comes to the restaurant again, you will cooperate with your eldest brother Yushan to run it."

"Oh, I see—"

Countless thoughts flashed through Sun Shan's mind at once, and he seemed to understand what Jacky Cheung meant.

So that’s it!

When Jacky Cheung saw that Sun Shan seemed to understand what he meant instantly, he couldn't help but sigh inwardly: This is a smart man!

Smart people don't need to explain at all, as soon as they say it, they understand that this is a deal.'

Although, there is a daughter involved, it is precisely because of the existence of the daughter that the deal can be done.

This is a blatant conspiracy. Although it does not need to be said out loud, it is a transaction involving marriage and a gamble on Sun Shan’s future.
