From the moment Chen Xing fell in love with He Xiner at first sight, he secretly swore that he would work hard to make a lot of money and raise the girl he loved.
As for how to make money, he was once confused.
Maybe it was because of the close relationship between He Xiner and Ye Xusheng, but he couldn't tell what his psychology was, and he always subconsciously compared himself with Ye Xusheng.
Maybe it's because He Xiner likes men like Ye Xusheng.
He just wanted to become someone like Ye Xusheng, someone whom Miss Ye could rely on.
Needless to say, the other party is handsome, and he cannot compare to him in this regard.
But the excellence of Sheng Xiaozi does not only lie in his appearance.
He is both civil and military, has outstanding abilities, and is a talented person.
Compared with Sheng Xiaozi, I am like the mud on the ground and the white clouds in the sky...
This realization once made him deeply despair.
Miss Ye faced such an outstanding cousin every day, so she naturally had high standards and would not look down on a good-for-nothing man like him.
I also thought, just forget it.
Stop having those sweet dreams that will never be possible.
But he can't do it.
If he doesn't work hard, he won't give up.
So, he went to be an apprentice in a escort agency.
Some of the escorts in Weiyuan Escort Bureau are hired from outside with huge sums of money, but most of them are trained since childhood.
Some escort agencies bought orphans, and some were children from poor families who took the initiative to send them to be apprentices.
Everyone knows that escorts make a living on a knife's edge, but families with a decent life will not send their children to escort agencies.
The reason why Chen Xing chose to be an apprentice in the Escort Agency is because the Escort Agency not only teaches boxing and kicking skills, but also teaches reading and writing.
If he wants to learn literature and martial arts, this is the only way he can go.
In the past few years, he had worked hard to practice martial arts, become literate, and work hard to earn money, just so that one day he could propose marriage to the girl he loved in an upright and respectable manner.
His time was tight. There were countless people who coveted Miss Ye, a fairy like her. But he could see clearly that the boy from the Guan family also had a crush on Miss Ye.
That boy is a scholar, and the Guan family has a close relationship with the old Ye family, and he is good-looking, so his conditions are much better than his.
He is a rough guy who works as a escort, how can he compare with others?
The only way is to get ahead of everyone and impress Uncle Ye with his sincerity.
A few days ago, he took over a very dangerous business. He was to deliver a batch of goods to the northern border. He had to pass through more than thirty hills of various sizes along the way. The bandits on two of them could be said to be frightening.
, I won’t give any face to the escort agency, so I can’t bribe it, I can only force my way in.
The more risky the trade, the higher the reward.
The wages of avarice is death.
Under heavy rewards, there must be brave men.
Only half of the total of one hundred escorts from the two escort agencies came back. Some were killed, some had broken arms and legs, and some were disfigured.
And the knife on his back, if he hadn't dodged quickly, would have cut him in two.
This escort trip lasted for three months. It was not the longest or furthest escort trip he had ever taken, but it was the one where he earned the most, a total of five hundred taels of silver.
Five hundred taels of silver is nothing to those dignitaries, wealthy businessmen, and gentry, but it is an amount that bodyguards can earn only at the risk of their lives.
Chen Xing knew that the old Ye family was not short of money, and he could tell just by looking at the clothes of Aunt Ye and Miss Ye.
The second wife of Lao Ye's family is an extremely wealthy owner.
Moreover, Miss Ye is extremely favored in the family. The old Ye family is not that short-sighted and will not look down upon him just because of something.
He was just expressing his sincerity.
Except for the cost of building a house, he was not willing to spend any of the money he had saved in the past few years. He used it all to buy betrothal gifts, just to impress Uncle Ye and Aunt Ye.
After all, parents make the final decision on their children’s marriage.
