"Trouble? I haven't encountered any trouble."
"It seems like you're the one who's in trouble, though, isn't it?"
Hearing Qin Shan's words, Lin Chen couldn't help but chuckle wryly.
With his current status and position, very few people in the entire Zhejiang province, or even the entire southwest region, dared to offend him.
Even the special envoy from the Dragon family headquarters in the capital had to be respectful in front of him.
Under such circumstances, who would dare to cause trouble for him?
Instead, it was Qin Shan in front of him, who was clearly overwhelmed by the matter with Sun Feiyang and desperately needed money, yet he was giving him a bank card.
One hundred and twenty thousand yuan might be a small sum to Lin Chen now.
But Lin Chen knew that for Qin Shan, it was definitely life-saving money!
He never expected that even in his current situation, the other party would still be willing to give him this money. Such a friendship truly moved Lin Chen.
"Come on, you know me better than that. The troubles I face, I can resolve them all."
"Besides, it's just some rich second-generation wanting to snatch your sister-in-law from me. Didn't I end up with the beauty in the end?"
"What trouble could there be?"
Hearing Lin Chen's words, Qin Shan waved his hand dismissively, putting on a nonchalant demeanor.
In his view, Lin Chen had just gotten out, and that despicable Qin Wanru had already gotten together with another man.
This was a double blow to Lin Chen!
Although they hadn't spoken on the phone in the half-year since Lin Chen was released, he had often heard about Zhao Heng in the class group chat.
In short, there had been no good news at all!
It was rumored that after Lin Chen's release, he had vanished from the face of the earth, with no news whatsoever.
The reason Qin Shan was willing to give this money now, for Lin Chen to buy a house or start a small business, was indeed out of fear that Lin Chen might go down the wrong path.
If he were targeted by Sun Feiyang, the worst that could happen would be bankruptcy and starting over.
But Lin Chen was different. Now that Lin Chen was finally out, if he truly went astray, his life would be ruined forever!
"That's enough. This card is a gift from me, your brother. If you consider me a brother, then accept it!"
"Don't be so wishy-washy with me. You know I, Qin Shan, hate this kind of wishy-washy behavior the most!"
Without further ado, Qin Shan firmly placed the bank card into Lin Chen's hand, his expression resolute.
This was, perhaps, the only thing he could do for his brother.
"Hehehe, alright. Since you're threatening me like this, I'll accept it."
Seeing Qin Shan's resolute look, Lin Chen smiled helplessly and could only accept the bank card.
"However, I'm very curious. When you were starting your company, I was in jail. How did I invest in you?"
After accepting the bank card, Zhao Heng once again asked Qin Shan.
After he was imprisoned, it was Qin Shan who used his meager savings to help smooth things over and make his time in prison a little easier.
Eventually, he met his master.
At that time, he had no money!
Where did the money for investment come from?
"Well, you forgot. When we were in school, didn't I often borrow money from you?"
"You couldn't repay it back then, so we agreed that it was an investment in me. You haven't forgotten, have you?"
Hearing Zhao Heng's question, Qin Shan quickly explained.
"What? Wasn't that just a casual joke? You took it seriously?"
Getting such an explanation from Qin Shan, Zhao Heng couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Indeed, when he was studying, his mother had a stall in the market, and he often had pocket money of fifty cents or a dollar.
Qin Shan, being strong and having a big appetite, was often hungry at school and frequently borrowed money from Lin Chen to buy food.
Each time, he said it was Lin Chen's investment in him and never repaid it.
He never expected that the joke from back then would be remembered by Qin Shan his entire life.
And this class reunion was also personally organized by Qin Shan. The original intention was for him to hold his head high in front of these old classmates.
But unexpectedly, due to the matter with Sun Feiyang, it turned out this way!
Such a brother was truly worth cherishing!
"How could I not take it seriously? Qin Shan keeps his word. If you become successful in the future, you won't forget me, will you?"
"We are brothers, who is who?"
As he spoke, Qin Shan patted Zhao Heng's shoulder heavily, looking quite pleased with himself.
"Fine. Since that's the case, I plan to use your one hundred and twenty thousand yuan as my investment."
"From all the shares under my name, I'll give you a portion. How about it as your stake?"
Then, Lin Chen looked at Qin Shan and asked.
"Ah? Hahaha, it's fine. As long as you're willing to accept the money, it's up to you how you do it. I don't care."
Hearing Lin Chen's words, Qin Shan couldn't help but laugh.
In his opinion, how many shares could one hundred and twenty thousand yuan buy?
With Lin Chen's capabilities, he would probably just open a shop and give him dividends.
How much could that be?
Now that his company was facing bankruptcy, he would be burdened with huge debts!
This amount of money was merely a drop in the bucket!
"Alright, it's settled then."
"However, brother, due to some special circumstances, I can only give you zero point nine percent of the shares for each store. Please don't find it too little!"
Seeing that Qin Shan didn't take his words seriously at all, Lin Chen knew the other party must think the proportion was too small.
But there was no other way. Before, whether it was with the Shangguan family or the Ru Shuang Group, when discussing shares, he always held fifty-one percent.
Moreover, both Shangguan Ling'er and Qiu Han Ying had repeatedly instructed him.
He had to ensure he always held more than fifty percent of the equity, no matter what.
Only then, regardless of any future changes, could they face them calmly.
Even if he gave Qin Shan zero point nine percent of the shares for the three companies, he would still have more than fifty percent of the equity left.
This also complied with Shangguan Ling'er and Qiu Han Ying's instructions.
Although he didn't understand business matters, he knew that neither Shangguan Ling'er nor Qiu Han Ying would ever harm him in this regard!
"No, no. Brother, no matter how small the shares are, they represent a friendship."
Seeing Lin Chen's serious expression, Qin Shan forced himself to maintain a straight face and comforted Lin Chen.
Zero point nine percent, that was nine in a thousand!
This amount wasn't just a little, it was extremely little!
He didn't know why Lin Chen would do this, but for Qin Shan now, it didn't matter whether Lin Chen gave him shares or not.
It was just that Lin Chen's serious demeanor now was too amusing!
