In the fourth year of Zhengde, in the back garden of a large mansion on the South Street of Songjiang.

"Hey ~, hey yo..."

In the cold wind, a group of naked coolies were sweating all over their bodies, trying hard to pull up a rockery rock weighing several tons. The numerous wooden simple pulleys on it made a moan of pain, and under the desperate drag of many coolies, the heavy stones finally slowly left the ground.

At this time, the special flatbed truck that had been prepared near me was immediately pushed under the rockery rock. Then the coolies slowly relaxed the rope and carefully placed the rockery rock on the car. Then the coolies pulled the rope in front of the car and slowly moved out of the garden.

"Be careful, this stone is worth hundreds of taels. Not only can you not afford to pay if it is broken, I also have to jump into the river!" At this time, a young man in a long moon-white gown walked in from outside the garden. When he saw the coolie pushing a cart, he immediately smiled brightly.

Rather than saying that a young man came in, it was a teenager, because the other person looked at at most fifteen or sixteen years old, with a very handsome face, but the young man's eyebrows and eyes were filled with a kind of mature age that was not his age, so when people looked at these eyes, they would feel that the other person was older than they were.

"Don't worry, Mr. Zhou, these dozen brothers are all strong and will never ruin your things!" Seeing this young man joking with them so enthusiastically, the foreman who was commanding next to him also smiled heartily.

"Hey, don't call me the eldest son anymore. Now no one knows the entire Songjiang Mansion. Our Zhou family's business has collapsed and my family has been sold out. Now Zhou is penniless and can't say that in a few days, I will have to ask for a life from my brother!" The young man, who is known as Zhou Dashou, said with a laugh again.

When the foreman heard this, he hurriedly said a few words, but seeing the other party's happy look, he muttered to himself: Everyone said that Young Master Zhou was a prodigy before, and passed the scholar at a young age. But now the Zhou family's business has collapsed and he still has a lot of debts. However, no matter when he sees the other party these days, he always looks like he smiles. Could it be that because his father died and his bankruptcy, this Young Master Zhou is also crazy?

Wang Jie, who should not call him Zhou Chong, didn't care at all about the suspicion in the hearts of the foreman and others. He thought that he would have been drowned when he fell into the sea, but he didn't expect that when he opened his eyes, he actually came to the Ming Dynasty hundreds of years ago and became a rich young master. Unfortunately, he was born without the life of a young master. He had just been a young master for a few days, but he got the unfortunate news that his father's ship went out to sea encountered a storm, and the ship was destroyed and the people died.

It doesn’t matter if my father dies. Anyway, this brand new Zhou Chong has no impression of that cheap father. But the key point is that there are still a lot of goods on the ship, and their Zhou family’s business has been affected over the years. This time, he went to sea to buy goods. As a result, all the goods are gone now, and the creditors are naturally blocked at the gate to ask for debts.

Zhou Chong is the legitimate son of the Zhou family and his only son. His mother died early, and he had two sisters under him, but they were half-brothers. They were both concubines of Zhou Chong's father, so now he is the only man in the family who can take charge. Faced with this situation, Zhou Chong had to stand up.

Zhou Chong's father is named Zhou Hai. The Zhou family is an outsider in Songjiang Mansion. He moved here more than ten years ago. Zhou Hai makes a living by doing business and owns many shops. In addition, the imperial court's maritime ban policy has been relaxed a lot in recent years, so the Zhou family also went to sea to smuggle. In fact, it is not just the Zhou family. Any famous wealthy man in Songjiang Mansion will have some smuggling business.

Zhou Hai accumulated a lot of wealth through business and became the leading rich man in Songjiang Prefecture, but he did not want his son to make a living by business. After all, in the Ming Dynasty, studying and taking the imperial examination was just the right thing. Therefore, he asked his son Zhou Chong to study since he was a child and asked a famous gentleman to teach him. Zhou Chong lived up to expectations. He was extremely smart since he was a child and learned from others. He soon became a child prodigy. He also passed the exam for scholar last year. Zhou Chong was only fourteen years old at that time.

Just when everyone thought that the Zhou family would produce a talented man and might even become a family of officials in the future, Zhou Chong, who was young, suffered a serious illness and fainted several times during this period. When he woke up for the last time, the original Zhou Chong had been replaced by a young man named Wang Jie, who came from the 21st century.

Zhou Hai died unexpectedly later, and the Zhou family suffered such drastic changes. If it were Zhou Chong, who had been known as a child prodigy before, was actually a nerd, he would probably not be able to deal with it even if he was beaten to death, and he might even be forced to hang himself by those creditors.

But now Zhou Chong is different. His real name is Wang Jie from later generations. His parents died in a car accident in high school. They relied on the savings left by their parents and their own efforts to work. Finally, they graduated from a computer department of a second-class undergraduate university. They originally worked in an IT company in Shanghai, and their salary was not low. He even sold his house in his hometown and paid the down payment in Shanghai. The remaining mortgages were used to provide a small house. Everything looked beautiful.

Unfortunately, Wang Jie was unable to stand his boss teasing the female employees of the company and discriminated against him as a so-called "outsider". As a result, his anger accumulated to a certain extent. He beat his boss on the spot. In the end, he not only lost his job, but also detained for a period of time.

After freedom, Wang Jie wanted to find another job, but God seemed to be joking with him. He couldn't find a job for several months. Later, he didn't have much money, and the bank mortgage was like a death-hunting ghost. In the end, Wang Jie was desperate and introduced by a friend he met in the detention center. He relied on his practice of several skills since childhood and was relatively agile, so he started to do some gray industries, such as helping people watch the venue, asking for debts, smuggling and smuggling ships, etc. Although these jobs didn't seem to be on the table, the money was quite quick, even higher than when he was at work.

In this case, Wang Jie changed from an IT migrant worker to a gray group of people who are neither black nor white, and did some work between legality and illegality. In fact, Wang Jie's idea is very simple. He wanted to pay off the money of the house first, then save some money, and then wash his hands and stop doing it. It would be best to find a legitimate job. If he couldn't find it, he would do some small business by himself, and then talk about a girlfriend and get married and have children. This is Wang Jie, the most ordinary dream of an ordinary person.

Unfortunately, when Wang Jie was helping someone to smuggle a boat, the buyer and the seller had a disagreement, and they even started fighting on the spot. Wang Jie was very skilled and chopped down seven or eight thugs of the other party in a row. Unfortunately, he was kicked into the water in the end. As a result, he was drowned in the sea without knowing the nature of the water. When he woke up, he had already arrived in the Zhengde period of the Ming Dynasty, and his identity became a rich young man known as a child prodigy. Unfortunately, his body was the young master and he died of the life of the young master. He became a bankrupt young master in just a few days.

It was precisely because of the experience of the previous life that Zhou Chong did not have the talent of Zhou Chong in this life, but when dealing with the debts owed by the Zhou family, he seemed extremely organized. After all, he had paid off the debts for the bank for the whole life in his previous life. Although he could not pay them off until his death, he also developed a calm mentality. Although the creditors who came to the door were fierce, they were simply a piece of cake compared to such a death-threatening bank in later generations.

First, Zhou Chong first handled the funeral of the cheap father, and then made a statistics on the debts they owed and the assets of the Zhou family. As a result, he found that the amount of debt owed was just a little higher than the assets of their Zhou family. In other words, after he paid off the debt, the Zhou family not only had nothing left, but also had to owe some foreign debts.

Although this discovery made Zhou Chong quite frustrated, life always had to continue, so he cheered up and sold the Zhou Mansion's property as it should be sold, and even the things in the Zhou Mansion's house began to be sold. For example, the rockery stones transported from the garden just now were worth hundreds of taels of silver. In addition, the gold, silver and jewelry of the women's family in the mansion were also sold. This was the responsibility of Zhou Chong's little sister's mother, Aunt Zhao, and it is estimated that they should be collected now.

Thinking of this, Zhou Chong turned around and walked towards the inner house. His cheap father had four concubines. Among them, in addition to Aunt Wang giving birth to the eldest sister Bracelet and Aunt Zhao giving birth to the younger sister Duoer, there were two young Aunt Han, who were a pair of sisters, who were only twenty years old this year and had no children.

Speaking of which, Aunt Wang came in the earliest, so she should be in charge of the house. However, Aunt Wang was from a small family and was honest and dull, and was really not suitable for managing the family. On the contrary, Aunt Zhao was born as a polite prostitute and was smart and capable, so after she entered the house, she had been managing the inner house of Zhou's mansion.

The Zhou family used to be a wealthy family in Songjiang Mansion. The house was built in a very grand manner. The inner and outer mansions were separated and occupied a considerable area. According to the surround weight, there were at least a dozen acres. There were quite a few gardens in the front and back courtyards. The decorations inside and outside the houses were also very luxurious, and some places could even be called luxury. Unfortunately, the luxurious Zhou Mansion is now dilapidated.

The decorations of the living room and the inner house were all used to pay off the debt, and the furniture such as tables, chairs and other furniture were sold out. Even the marble-carved beast horns on the roof were sledged and sold by Zhou Chong. It can be said that except for this yard and people in the Zhou Mansion, all the others were sold by Zhou Chong to pay off the debt.

However, although the Zhou Mansion was sold out, unfortunately the debts outside were still not paid off. Although the remaining debts were not much, it is still unknown whether they could be paid back with the current situation of the Zhou Mansion. In addition, all the shops in the Zhou Mansion were gone and the fields were sold out. It can be said that the Zhou Mansion has no income now.

What's even worse is that Zhou Chong was a bachelor in his previous life, and his family was not hungry if he had one person to eat. But now he has four concubines and two sisters to support him. These people have six mouths together, which is much more difficult than supporting him.

These troubles and things together may cause everyone to feel very distressed. However, except that Zhou Chong was a little depressed when he was not able to spend a few more days of the young master's life, he was always very optimistic afterwards, because for him who was reincarnated, all of this now belonged to Zhou Chong's original life. His life was originally dead, but now it occupied someone's body and came back to life again. It was equivalent to God giving him a chance to live a resurgence. So it is very normal for God to take away some things belonging to Zhou Chong.

Besides, God is still very kind. For example, it did not take away all Zhou Chong's things. At least he still has a large mansion, which is countless times stronger than the small house worth tens of square meters in his previous life. Moreover, the land under the house belongs to him completely, so he doesn't have to worry about any bullshit problems for seventy years.

In addition, compared to being alone in his previous life, God left Zhou Chong with several relatives. For example, although Aunt Wang was honest and dull, she cared about him very much and treated him as her own son. There were also two cute sisters, one was a four-year-old little loli and the other was a thirteen-year-old loli, and she liked to stick to him, her eldest brother the most.

I remembered that when I was fifteen years old, Zhou Chong died in a car accident. Since then, Zhou Chong has never felt the warmth of his family again. Now God has not only given him a chance to be reborn, but also given him a family that is incomplete but very warm. All this made Zhou Chong feel very satisfied.

Zhou Chong quickly walked through the several courtyards in front. There was no sound except the bitter cold wind. The servants had long been dismissed by him, which made the entire mansion lose its popularity. If it were at night, ordinary timid people would not dare to stay here.
