Chapter 101: Has Got It in Her Mind

Fang Yuan could not stand this: “Why are you so lacking in ambition?”

“Now we cannot afford it, but will we still not be able to afford it in the future?”

“You should spend money more frugally, and we will save more money and prepare.”

“I have realized there are still many things outside that we cannot afford.”

Lu Chuan nodded.

That really was unaffordable; it was not something that saving this little money would allow them to buy.

However, Fang Yuan’s practical spirit made Lu Chuan admire her.

This matter still needed to be made clear to Fang Yuan.

“No, this is actually not just a matter of being able to afford it or not.

Projects like this that require a crane, we cannot take them.

Even if we bought it, it would be useless.”

Fang Yuan: “That is not important.

What matters is whether I can afford to buy it.”

Lu Chuan did not even know what mattered anymore.

It seemed what Fang Yuan said was not wrong, but it also did not really make sense.

This was exactly having taken a liking to it, having it on her mind.

Lu Chuan realized that anything which required Fang Yuan to weigh how much money was in her pocket was something she had set her eyes on.

Lu Chuan regretted bringing Fang Yuan here.

Who could have known that just looking at a construction site would make her set her mind on a huge crane?

When it happened to be the construction site’s off work time.

Fang Yuan was truly bold, she even went over to ask how much that crane cost, and how much money that crane made in a day.

She looked like a young girl, and the crane operator deliberately teased Fang Yuan: “You have good taste, this thing really makes money.

If you could afford to buy it, look, this project, big or not?

The money it makes is not less than what a contractor makes.”

No need to ask further, that one sentence already moved Fang Yuan.

Then he mentioned the price of the crane, and that also crushed Fang Yuan’s hopes.

It was the kind of despair that shattered into pieces that could not be put back together.

That level was something they could not reach.

The crane operator laughed.

“Girl, stop thinking about it.

This thing is all state owned.

Private individuals cannot afford it.

Even if you bought it, they would not use yours.”

He did not have the nerve to say how much the crane actually cost; he did not know either.

That was not a level he could come into contact with.

When they came out of the construction site, Fang Yuan was a bit listless.

She looked as if she had been hit hard by the blow.

Lu Chuan comforted Fang Yuan.

“We are just starting out, take it slowly.

It really was a bit expensive.”

Even until mealtime, Fang Yuan still had not come back to her senses.

Lu Chuan guessed that Fang Yuan had not even tasted what she was eating; her mind was entirely on the crane.

After putting down her chopsticks, Fang Yuan summed it up.

“We really have too few ways to make money.”

What could Lu Chuan say, Fang Yuan was quite insightful.

“Do not rush, we will think slowly.

Money is earned.”

Fang Yuan: “Of course we cannot rush.

The way to make money, I cannot figure it out.

I am relying on you.

Let’s go, go back and rest well, and think slowly.”

Lu Chuan was suddenly speechless.

This unique way of “nourishing the brain” and this heavy trust both put pressure on him.

Fang Yuan: “I originally wanted to have a child first.

It seems we will have to put that off.

You should first think about how to make money.”

To anyone hearing this, there was no problem; this girl seemed quite rational.

But Lu Chuan truly understood.

What Fang Yuan meant by earn money first and have children later was not a matter on the same level.

That was a misunderstanding at the theoretical level.

Fang Yuan’s children were also something she simply thought into existence.

In Fang Yuan’s mind, thinking about having children and thinking about ways to make money could not be done at the same time.

Each had to be considered seriously one by one.

As for having children, Lu Chuan was not really in a hurry.

He preferred to consider children only when emotions, family, and finances were all stable enough.

But Lu Chuan had overlooked one small detail.

At the guesthouse, after showing their marriage certificate, they were assigned a single room, a single bed room.

At the time he did not notice this problem.

When it was time to rest at night, Lu Chuan became anxious and flustered; this was not their home kang, where one could sleep at the head and another at the foot.

In the past, when he faced Fang Yuan, there was no problem.

He felt that unless Fang Yuan requested it, he would not make any mistake.

But now Lu Chuan did not have that confidence.

Not to mention one bed, even one room, Fang Yuan was dangerous.

Not to mention a legally registered wife who kept talking about having a child with him.

Lu Chuan hesitated for a moment and discussed it with Fang Yuan: “This room only has one bed.

I will go ask for another room.”

Fang Yuan was truly a frugal and capable homemaker: “Are you really that well off?

Are we not going to live our lives anymore?”

She generously said: “Alright, you take a good rest and think about ways to make money.”

Lu Chuan’s mind was completely blank.

He cautiously climbed into the blanket and curled up on one side.

Fang Yuan generously said: “Alright, you take a good rest and think about ways to make money.”

Lu Chuan thought to himself, Good thing they did not mention the child. But at times like this, men always had some wild ambition, and he still had a bit of restless desire. He gathered his courage and said, “Actually, there is another way to ‘nourish the brain’.”

Fang Yuan immediately became energized.

“You should have said so earlier. What method?”
