She Came to Heal, Stayed to Conquer

Wei Dabao was so angry he felt a pain in his chest!

His chest kept heaving, ”And what about the pig? You, a dignified County Magistrate, raising pigs, how do you explain that?”

”Hahaha...” Luo Hai laughed. He turned his head and pointed to Han Lei, looking innocent, ”The county and my niece have partnered to open a restaurant in the county town called Tongfu Building, Mr. Wei knows this!”

”What does that have to do with pig farming?” Wei Dabao pressed further.

Luo Hai had a natural expression, ”Mr. Wei, haven’t you noticed that all the ingredients in Tongfu Building are made from pork? If we don’t raise pigs, where would all those ingredients come from?”

”Oh dear! My poor heart!”

Hearing Luo Hai’s explanation, Wei Dabao clutched his chest with one hand and pointed at Luo Hai with the other, too furious to say a single word.

The ”Great Treasure Trove” he had been yearning for was nothing more than filthy, smelly pigs and crops.

Just when Wei Dabao was about to explode with rage, Han Lei stepped forward.

”Uncle.”

Han Lei looked at Luo Hai, her voice soft yet somewhat innocent and charming.

She asked Luo Hai, ”This gentleman looks affluent and his surname is Wei. Could he have some connection with the Wei family of the Capital City?”

Upon hearing this, Luo Hai showed a hint of a meaningful smile and nodded.

”Exactly, this is Mr. Wei, a squire of Qingshui County, related to the Wei family of the Capital City.”

Han Lei’s eyes suddenly gleamed, as if she had discovered some incredible secret.

She slightly bowed, with a slight respect in her tone, ”Oh, my apologies. So, may I ask, Mr. Wei Dabao, is Mr. Wei Chengchao your...”

Wei Dabao was fuming, feeling a bit impatient, but seeing Han Lei’s charming beauty, he couldn’t vent his anger at her!

So, his tone naturally softened a bit.

He waved his hand, speaking casually, ”That is my cousin.”

”Oh, so it’s fate, then.” Han Lei’s eyes smiled even more.

Fate?

Wei Dabao looked at Han Lei, puzzled.

”Not only do I collaborate with my uncle on the Tongfu Building business, but I also run two businesses with your cousin Wei Chengchao in the Capital City. One is called Swan Hairpin, specializing in women’s products. The other is Drunken Immortal Brew, specializing in fine wines. Both businesses are thriving, full of customers.”

As Han Lei spoke, she deliberately showed a bit of pride and elegantly took out a small flask of Drunken Immortal Brew from her sleeve, uncorking it, then handed the flask to Wei Dabao.

”This is Drunken Immortal Brew. Have a taste, see if it counts as fine wine?”

Wei Dabao’s attention shifted from treasure to the wine, and his anger naturally subsided a lot. Although he didn’t reach for the flask, he immediately smelled the wine’s aroma wafting in the air.

He twitched his nose, showing a hint of surprise, ”Isn’t this Tongfu Building’s Drunken Immortal Brew?”

Han Lei smiled slightly, nodding, ”Yes, Wei Chengchao specializes in selling this in the Capital City.”

The anger on Wei Dabao’s face instantly vanished, replaced by a look of pleasant surprise.

He slapped his thigh, ”Oh my! Isn’t this just like a flood washing over the Dragon King’s temple!? So you are the secret owner behind Tongfu Building and Drunken Immortal Brew. May I ask your esteemed name, miss?”

Wei Dabao’s eyes roamed over Han Lei, and he couldn’t help being secretly impressed.

The thriving business of Tongfu Building was no secret to him, unmatched by anyone in Qingshui County, with daily silver flowing, enough to make anyone drool.

But he hadn’t expected that behind such a bustling business was a sweet-looking, young girl.

Han Lei smiled a bit, ”Not at all, not at all. I am Han, Mr. Luo is my uncle.”

She paused briefly, her tone somewhat indifferent, ”What secret owner? Mr. Wei is joking. It’s all about working together to seek wealth.”

Wei Dabao didn’t expect Han Lei, young as she was, not only skilled in business but also so modest in speech, and couldn’t help but admire her even more.

Han Lei, with her sharp eyes, did not miss Wei Dabao’s change in attitude.

Seeing the timing was about right, Han Lei smoothly shifted the topic to the main point.

”Now, Mr. Wei Chengchao and I are preparing to open a clothing store in the Capital City, selling unique and beautiful garments, with an annual income of millions of silver not being out of the question. Mr. Wei seems to be a fortunate person, would you be interested in joining us and earning wealth together?”

Annual income of millions of silver?
