Oh my god! The goddess secretly gave birth to three obedient daughters for me

Lin Yi was slightly taken aback when he saw Yang Fan, then he put his phone back in his pocket.

Landlord Sun hurriedly answered, "They have also come to see the third shop."

It was then that Yang Fan realized, the landlord had mentioned someone else also wanted to rent this place, but he didn't expect it to be Lin Yi!

So he turned his head and said to the two people behind him, "Dad, big brother, wasn't I right? It's not just me who's interested in this shop; the business here is definitely booming."

Then, he turned back to Lin Yi and asked, "Lin Yi, what exactly do you plan to do with this place?"

Lin Yi didn't care about Yang Fan in the slightest, and said nonchalantly, "What else could I do? Exactly what you're doing!" Enjoy new chapters from m-v l'-NovelBin.net

At that moment, Yang Fan's gaze lingered on the man next to Lin Yi, and after a while, he slowly said, "Ah, could he be the clueless financier you've brought along? I remember your family does not run a catering business."

It was then that Han Xuewei's father spoke up, "He is my son-in-law."

Yang Fan's eyes revealed a trace of surprise; he hadn't expected him to be Han Xuewei's father!

But even so, what of it? If they were here to snatch the shop from him, he wouldn't be soft-hearted!

Immediately afterward, he whispered to his father and brother, "This place is really great. There's no better location than this. Dad, big brother, this is a golden opportunity! We mustn't miss this chance no matter what! And I'm about to graduate soon; you all want me to join society and grow quickly, don't you? You have to trust my judgment; this investment will definitely make a fortune!"

"Dad, you trust me, right? There's no way I'll be wrong about this!"

Yang Fan had already boasted in front of his classmates, so no matter what, he had to open the shop quickly! Otherwise, his reputation and credibility would be utterly lost! That would be somewhat embarrassing!

After hearing this, Yang Hongwei nodded and said, "Hmm. I can trust you, but don't let me down. For leasing, renovation, and all other expenses, I'll give you a budget of 8 million! If you don't earn back half of the costs in your first year of operation, then don't think about joining the management team."

It was true that Kaiyue Catering Company had been founded single-handedly by Yang Hongwei. However, the current Kaiyue Catering Company was a product of financing, with Yang Hongwei being the largest shareholder now.

If his second son, Yang Fan, wanted to enter the management level, he needed the agreement of other shareholders.

So for them, opening a store was not difficult, but if they wanted to compete for the management level later on, they would have to demonstrate undeniable capability that would satisfy everyone, just like what his eldest son had done!

Yang Hongwei held the same expectations for his two sons, both with the hope that they would become successful.

At that moment, Yang Fan assured his father with a pat on his chest, "You can be completely reassured! I will put in more than my full effort this time!"

He always believed that his judgment and investigation were flawless. After all, this was the old downtown area with completely sufficient surrounding facilities, and there was no need to worry about foot traffic. Wasn't this an excellent spot that guaranteed profits without losses?

Yang Fan had already made up his mind; no matter what, he was determined to get this shop!

Then he said to the two of them, "Dad, big brother, although the rent here is high, 190,000 is still within our affordable range, right?"

And just at that moment, Yang Fan's elder brother, Yang Zhen, also chimed in, "Dad, I've already had someone survey this area once, and overall, the location and the plan for Later Stages business operations are perfect, with absolutely no room for error."

Yang Hongwei looked up and surveyed the surroundings before turning his gaze to the two brothers, and finally nodded in satisfaction.

The matter was settled!

Seeing his father persuaded by himself and his elder brother, Yang Fan then walked towards Lin Yi, high-spirited and jubilant.

But as Yang Fan approached, Lin Yi caught a glimpse of Yang Fan's brother, Yang Zhen, whose mouth corners lifted slightly to reveal a strange smile that nearly went unnoticed by others!

It looked rather sinister!

If it weren't for the fact that Lin Yi happened to be looking at Yang Zhen, that expression would have been missed entirely!

And through that instant, he was almost certain that Yang Fan's brother was no simple character!

Could it be...

The thought had barely crossed his mind when Lin Yi decided to use the ability granted by the system as a reward—the Art of Appraisal!

It was, after all, his first time using this ability! Why not test it out today to see its effectiveness?

"Report to the host, if the host wishes to use a certain ability, merely utter its name to activate the skill! For example, say 'Use Art of Appraisal' towards the person you wish to identify, and the skill will be successfully triggered."

Lin Yi finally understood.

He didn't expect the skill to be so convenient to use, being able to discern whether the person identified was good or bad almost instantly.

Immediately after, Lin Yi's eyes were fixed intently on Yang Zhen as he silently commanded, "Art of Appraisal! Activate!"

System: "Please wait a moment, host. Identification in progress."

Before a moment had passed, the system replied, "The identified person harbors a scheming heart, is deceitful, highly calculative, and constantly laying plans. One must not associate with such a person."

As Lin Yi listened, he pondered, "So he's quite a scheming person..."

Indeed, having seen the expression on Yang Zhen's face just earlier, Lin Yi had already guessed as much.

Upon uncovering the truth, Lin Yi was also surprised, "Could it be... Yang Fan's own brother set him up? To even scheme against his own flesh and blood, this is too much..."

However, thinking about it, this wasn't all that strange; after all, in well-to-do families, many brothers who are as close as hands and feet would stop at nothing for their own interests, especially when competing for inheritance or fighting for power.

Moreover, Lin Yi had listened clearly just a while ago—if Yang Fan could get the store up and running, there was a chance for him to reach new heights in the future!

But if Yang Fan were to take a management position, his brother's interests would inevitably be affected. So, it would be better to play some tricks and make Yang Fan out to be an inept businessman, a wealthy second-generation who only knew how to play.

Then, Yang Zhen could take control of the power all by himself!

And no one would threaten his position!

This move was truly ingenious! It had to be said that this person was incredibly ruthless, not even sparing his own brother when inflicting pain!

However, Lin Yi was well aware that all this had nothing to do with him, and he couldn't manage these affairs.

It appeared things were becoming even more interesting!

Originally, Lin Yi had planned to inform Mr. Sun, the landlord here, that the entire street had been requisitioned and would soon be demolished, then persuade Mr. Sun to rent to Yang Fan at all costs, ideally jacking up the rent! But looking at the current situation, things were obviously different now!

At the same time, Lin Yi felt an eagerness to watch how events would unfold.
