I’m A Baller - Chapter 453 - The Devil Wang
Just as they reached home, the liquor store truck arrived. The driver started to move things into the house.
Wang Xiumei was shocked.
“What’s going on? What did you two buy? Why are there so many?”
Till she saw clearly the things in the box, her expression instantly changed.
With the porter’s presence, Wang Xiumei didn’t say anything. She just stared at Wang Yan with her eyebrows raised.
Zhang Yao shrunk her head and sneaked into her room with the three-piece set in her hand.

It would have been fine if she had not slipped away as there was a big guy in front of her. However, if she had jumped out herself… then there was no hope.
While Wang Yan and the porter were checking the goods and the address, Wang Xiumei picked up a feather duster and chased after Zhang Yao into her bedroom.
When Wang Yan sent the porter away, he heard a series of wails and wails in the room.
“It’s my brother who wanted to buy. Why did you hit me?”
“If you didn’t pester your brother, why would he buy you Apple for no reason? Prodigal child, be good!”
“Oh my God! Don’t come over! If you come over again, I’ll fight with you!”
Wang Yan thought for a moment, then quietly went to the kitchen to get some water to drink and closed the kitchen door.
If I couldn’t hear you, then it meant you didn’t get beaten up.
If you really got beaten up…
Thank you, and you deserve it!
Wang Yan was hiding in the kitchen, thinking that he could wait until his aunt was done venting her anger on Zhang Yao. In the end, after a while, his aunt shouted through the two-story door.
“Yan Yan, come here!”
Wang Yan didn’t panic.
His aunt beating Zhang Yao was a reserved show. She had to beat her three times a month, but the Wang Sisters had never touched Wang Yan’s finger since he was young. At most, they would scold him a little.
It was a kind of ‘you deserved it because you were ugly, but not me because I was handsome’.
“Aunt! What are you doing? Why are you throwing such a tantrum?”
Wang Yan pushed open his sister’s room door as if he just found out. He went up and pretended to be a good person.
“Don’t be cheeky with me. You prodigal child, why did you buy so much alcohol and cigarettes? You even bought Yao Yao Apple. She’s about to climb up the wall, yet you’re still spoiling her!”
Wang Xiumei put on a stern face, trying to maintain her dignity as an elder.
Unfortunately, Wang Yan didn’t buy it at all and continued to put on a cheeky face.
“Why are you so angry over such a small matter?
“I earned tens of millions in half a year. How much money did I spend to just buy some alcohol and cigarettes to give to you?
You should drink, smoke, and give away those that you don’t need as gifts. Let youngest Uncle think about it and see what to do.
When my father’s manor is built, there will be a time for you to be busy…”
“What?!”
“Tens of millions?!”
Wang Yan had not even finished his explanation, when the amount that had shrunk by many times came out, his aunt and Zhang Yao were dumbfounded.
“What did you do? You earned tens of millions in half a year. Did you…”
Yes, yes, yes. I did an illegal business. If it were to leak out, I might not have to go to jail, but it would definitely make headlines…
Sigh, it was so difficult to explain the tens of millions…
Young Master Wang sighed and fell into the trap.
“My friend and I set up a live broadcast guild, and it happened to be a market explosion. It’s very profitable. Aunty, you know Wang Siming, right? He is working with our company…”
The effect of bringing out Mr. Wang was immediate. Aunty was instantly excited.
“Oh my, Yan Yan, you’re actually relying on Wang Siming? My goodness, just a little bit from his fingers is enough for you to make a fortune…”
“Yes, yes, yes!”
Wang Yan just nodded and didn’t want to argue.
“Mr. Wang’s business is worth a few hundred million, and I’m helping him out. I’m also lucky, and it’s developing quite well.”
Aunt and Yao Yao immediately believed him totally.
If he were to tell the truth and say that it was Mr. Wang who begged me to be an investor, the two of them would definitely roll their eyes and not believe a word of it.
Being on different level, it was really hard to imagine what actually was happening.
Therefore, I was not lying. I was just making a selective statement…
“Wow! Brother, have you seen Mr. Wang?”
“Yes.”
“Is he handsome in person?”
“Not as handsome as your brother.”
“Is he fierce?”
“Not as fierce as your brother.”
Young Master Wang replied one by one and gave a strange answer.
Zhang Yao’s expression immediately became very strange. “Wow, the two of you really had sex?”
“Your pocket money is gone!”
“No, no, no, no! I sold my Little Fairy and lost my friendship. I can’t lose my pocket money, too!”
Wang Xiumei’s head hurt by the two kids. She sighed and went out to carry boxes.
Maotai, Maotai, maotai…
“Yan Yan, why did you buy so many Maotai?”
Zhonghua, Zhonghua, Zhonghua…
“Yan Yan, why did you buy so many Zhonghua?”
Scallop, scallop, scallop…
“Yan Yan…”
At least half an hour had passed before Wang Xiumei stopped. Then, she opened WeChat and started to show off in her family group.
Her aunt Wang Xiuqin also had the same gifts. With her explanation, it saved Wang Yan a lot of hassle.
Of course, Wang Yan didn’t forget to remind her, “Keep it among our family, don’t spread the news.”
“Don’t worry, there are no outsiders in the family group.”
She gave a perfunctory reply and continued to show off.
Not long after, his eldest aunt rushed home to collect her gifts. After collecting the gifts, she immediately went to his youngest aunt’s house. After a while, his youngest uncle came home from work.
“Your parents are on the way back to Gu Jiao.”
The youngest aunt’s husband, Zhang Zhen, did not speak much, but he loved to laugh. He patted Wang Yan’s shoulder and laughed non-stop.
The eldest aunt was very excited. When she was excited, she slapped her thigh. “Aiya, there’s not a single person in Aunty’s house. What are we going to do with all those things?”
The eldest aunt’s husband was not home. Brother Dapeng worked in the special district, so those new year goods were useless even if they were expired.
It was not that Wang Yan did not know, but he just wanted to express an attitude of treating everyone fairly.
“Wait for Brother Dapeng to come back and let him make the arrangements.” Wang Yan smiled.
“It’s not necessary for anyone to make any arrangement! Aunty doesn’t need those things. Yan Yan, pull them back and find something for your Brother Dapeng to do later. It’s better than anything else!”
The eldest aunt was very straightforward. Whatever she thought, she had to say it out loud.
The youngest aunt chimed in, “Yeah, Yan Yan, you’re capable now. Don’t let Dapeng float outside by himself…”
Wang Yan had already considered this matter long ago.
“My work over there is too professional. With Brother Dapeng’s ability, doing those things isn’t the right path. It’s a waste.”
After saying this, he talked his plans.
“When my parents’ side is getting better, I’ll ask Brother Dapeng to come back and help you guys.
Youngest uncle won’t be able to come out for a while, and I can’t return to Gu Jiao. Without a man outside is not feasible to earn a living. I can only rely on Brother Dapeng.
You can keep those cigarettes and alcohol for Brother Dapeng. He’ll need them when he comes back.
Our family’s business isn’t that big, right? We’ll definitely be able to ensure that everyone won’t have to worry about food and clothing. Aunty, don’t be anxious. Wait for me to make a path for you.”
The moment the thick and heavy aura was released, the person who spoke was no longer Wang Yan, but Chief Wang.
He had a set of clothes, a room full of cigarettes and alcohol, and a temperament that had been honed from a big scene. He was very persuasive.
“Yes!”
Aunty slapped her thigh. “Aunty doesn’t have the ability. I don’t understand the current society. I’ll listen to you!”
The youngest aunt started to wipe her tears inexplicably without knowing why.
“Aiyo! Back then, you were so weak that you could even blow up your own pants when playing firecracker… Last year, you borrowed my car and said you wanted to sell watermelons, I thought you were fooling around… In the blink of an eye, you can now support your whole family like a man…”
Youngest Aunty, don’t talk nonsense. Why didn’t I remember that?
The eldest young master felt a little unnatural.
Should I be moved, or should I defend myself ?
Zhang Yao’s eyes lit up as she urged her mother to tell more, “Mom, my second brother was so stupid in the past? What else did he do?”
Wang Yan coughed lightly and called out to her, “Aunty, later I’ll teach you how to set passwords for iPhone and iPad. Yao Yao’s study is important. You take care of the password, and let her play for a while every weekend…”
Zhang Yao’s evil smile froze on her face and she was stunned.
The young master gently stroked his sister’s head and smiled kindly, “Be good, you need to protect your eyes…”
Are you a devil?!
Zhang Yao was about to cry, feeling wronged, but she didn’t dare to make a sound — her mother was staring at her!
“Good idea!”
The youngest aunt suddenly clapped her hands, completely shattering Zhang Yao’s hope.
“Come, Yan Yan, teach me how to do it now!”
Seeing that the happiness that she had just obtained was about to fade away, Zhang Yao finally went crazy.
“Who dares to touch my iPad? I’ll fight with you!”
“Wretched girl, who are you being unreasonable with?”
“Hey, Hey, Hey, don’t hit me, don’t hit me… Brother, brother! I was wrong, really wrong… you can’t treat your only sister like this!”
Facing Zhang Yao, who was crying and pouncing on him, trying her best to reach out her hand as if she was trying to grasp the last glimmer of hope, the young master asked lightly, “Have you finished your winter vacation homework?”
She was so dejected that she laughed like she was crying.
…
Father Wang and Mother Wang only returned to the city at six in the afternoon. They drove the ragged Wrangler directly to the youngest aunt’s house.
On the side of their family, the three sisters were only one step away from Brother Dapeng’s reunion.
As a member of the society, Brother Dapeng would only be able to return before the New Year.
The youngest aunt prepared a table full of good dishes, and the men opened two bottles of Maotai in high spirits.
The eldest aunt was the first to raise the wine as usual. “Come, the first glass of wine, to our family’s dragon son. We thank Yan Yan for bringing us hope. We wish our family prosperity and everyone a happy and healthy life!”
“Cheers!”
Everyone agreed and raised their glasses.
Zhang Yao, who had just had her laptop confiscated, was more excited than anyone else. She held half a glass of beer and looked at her second brother with a red face.
It’s up to you to enjoy the fragrant food and spicy drink, Second Brother!
…
He didn’t return home until nine o’clock. When he got home, he simply washed her face. Wang Yan had to talk nonsense with her parents again.
He could tell them a little more, but he still had to hide the actual scale.
After careful consideration, he told them that he had a market value of 200 million and a monthly net profit of more than 10 million.
“That much?” Wang Xiufang was a little flustered. “Son, then you should take good care of that side. If it doesn’t work, we’ll stop the work on the mountain…”
“A woman’s opinion!”
After a period of training, Wang Dayuan had regained the valor he had when he was protecting the mine back then, as well as the courage he had when he started his own business.
The main reason was that he finally dared to scold his wife…
“The forest and land at home is the root. Those things on the internet are changing so quickly. How can there be a general who can always win? Nokia was so powerful back then, but wasn’t it still defeated by Gu-Jiao-Tong?”
The logic was right, but those two things didn’t go together…
Well, they were considered going together.
Back then at Gu Jiao, Nokia really didn’t outdo Gu-Jiao-Tong. Even today in 2016, there were still people in the city who used Gu-Jiao-Tong.
“Yan Yan, let me tell you, no matter how fast money comes from outside businesses, the roots of old Wang’s family are in this poor countryside. Guarding the mountain and protecting the land won’t make you rich, but it will give you a nest after failure. You can go back and lick your wounds. We will have a comeback someday… Dad is not afraid of losing. Dad has lost too much, but dad is afraid of you losing…”
Wang Yan patiently listened to his father’s drunken words.
He silently pondered.
Gradually, he truly felt a middle-aged man’s resentment, uneasiness, fear, and persistence.
Most importantly, as a father, he had expectations for his son.
Wang Dayuan had lofty aspirations.
But, he was more thinking for Wang Yan. He wanted his son to have a big backer when he flew.
Wang Dayuan knew very well in his heart, just as he was mumbling —
“Dad doesn’t have much ability. I just hope that I can do this one thing well in my life…”
As he was mumbling, it was late at night.
…
The next day, the three of them got up and drove straight back to Wangjiaao.
Wang Yan was going to stay at his uncle’s house until the 28th. Then, he would return to Gu Jiao for the New Year and the party. On the sixth day of the New Year, he would set off for the capital.
Of course, he would bring his grandmother with him when he went back.
As soon as the Wrangler arrived at the entrance of Wangjiaao village, Gui Haiqin stood guard at the courtyard entrance with her crutches, looking around anxiously.
Wang Yan rushed out of the car and went over to pick up the old lady.
“Grandma! How’s your health?”
“Aiyo, good grandson, good, good!”
“Why is it lighter again?”
“Your uncle and elder brother are busy outside. I don’t like the food prepared by your aunt!”
The old lady and the eldest aunt had a very good relationship. They were used to scolding each other when they were young, so it would be uncomfortable if they didn’t scold each other.
Wang Yan looked at the two teeth of the old lady and teased her, “One, two, three, four… Aiya, why did you lose another one?”
“Where, where?!”
The old lady panicked and quickly reached out to touch it.
She touched it twice, and no matter how she counted, there were five. She was finally happy.
“You d*mned monkey! The moment you come back, you scare me!”
Wang Yan carried her into the house and continued to make a scene. “Really, if I have a say, I’ll pull them all out. Your eldest grandson will give you a set of good ones!”
“Oh my God, put me down and quickly go away!”
The old lady’s expression was extremely disdainful. “You’ve been thinking about these two teeth of mine since you came back. I’ll let your uncle slap you later!”
Wang Yan’s eldest uncle, Wang Dayou, was laughing happily at the side. The real little monkey, Wang Yuanyang, was making a ruckus. “My grandpa’s slapping is really painful!”
“Really?”
Wang Yan squatted down towards his nephew and started to take out his backpack.
“Really!”
Wang Yuanyang nodded his head solemnly. His eyes were sparkling as he did not leave Wang Yan’s backpack for a moment. He could not help but drool.
“Uncle, uncle, what good stuff did you bring me?”
“Dang dang dang dang!”
Wang Yan took out a complete set of selected primary school language and mathematics elites, along with an exercise book, and held it high in front of Wang Yuanyang.
“Are you surprised? If you can’t finish writing, your grandpa’s broom garda will come in handy…”
“…”
The little monkey was stunned for two seconds. Its snot fell to its upper lip bit by bit, and it suddenly jerked back.
“Woo… Wow!”
It was simple and straightforward, and it started crying just by standing there.
The devil Wang rubbed his nephew’s head, while his father, Wang Xue, patted his thigh happily. His mother went back to the house to get the broom garda.
“Hold it in! If you cry again, your grandfather doesn’t have to do it. I’ll treat you to fried meat first!”
Gui Haiqin’s mouth was agape. All five seedlings were left outside. She felt that this year was really lively…
…
In the afternoon, Wang Yan, his father and uncle went up the mountain to check the soil quality.
The first snow had already fallen in the Luliang mountain range of Taihang City. Looking down from the mountain, it was a vast expanse of white.
Wang Dayuan dug out a piece of ground and showed it to Wang Yan.
“Look, Yan Yan, how rich the soil is!”
He gently ran his fingers over it. It was not the kind of powdery feeling that could be broken at the touch of a yellow soil lump. The soil was sticky and tightly clenched like mud.
Water and soil, the soil had basically taken shape.
This spring, it was time to plant fruit trees.
There was no need to rush on the mountain plains. For the time being, they would plant legumes, alfalfa, and other green manure plants. When the manor was almost built, they would consider the overall reclamation.
So… they had to find time to install the water purifier…
Before that, they had to make the overall design, but a good design cost too much money, so there were no bullets…
Then, digging a well was another difficult problem. They had to find someone to measure and find water…
When he thought of all the troubles, Wang Yan’s brain grew big.
But he had no choice. It was related to his family’s foundation, and it was also the spiritual sustenance of her parents’ family. No matter how difficult it was, he had to do it.
Life was all about suffering. He just had to do it!
While rubbing his hands, Sister Jiao, whom he had not heard anything for a long time, suddenly called.
“Doggie, give me a nice bark!”
How arrogant!
When Wang Yan heard her voice, he knew that she had made a lot of money, so he immediately turned into a duck.
“Sister Jiao, the beautiful bodhisattva who saves people from suffering and great compassion, Little Wang misses you so much!”
“Pfft!”
Two people burst out laughing on the other side, and one of them had a very familiar voice.
Young Master Wang’s face turned green as he cursed in his heart! F*ck!
Chuxin, you didn’t do anything good and eavesdropped on my calls!
Just you wait!
When I went back, I had to… Brother Crab, Brother Crab, stop being so agitated…
The person on the other side was laughing like a stewed goose in an iron pot. After a while, Xu Jiao gasped for breath and reported the good news. “All expenses have been deducted, and there’s only 91.2 million left. I’ll transfer the money to you immediately.”
Aiyo, net income of 41.2 million?!
After deducting the 50 million from the credit card repayment and the 30 million from the investment in Wang Siming, there was still 130 million left on hand. It was really saving the suffering and solving the big problem!
Alright, I would forgive all of you!
Young Master Wang started to chat happily with everyone. What Car God’s face? Was there as good as money?
After making a bunch of promises,, Xu Jiao began to arrange the payment.
Wang Yan excitedly opened the system panel and stared at the [ intelligent building blueprint generation platform ] for a long time. He gritted his teeth, stomped his feet, and made up his mind.
He wanted the best!
The mall that was going to be refreshed tomorrow… Whatever!
