"Master Luo said that we, the Dou family, can become shareholders..."

Dou Jinhan had just finished speaking half a sentence when he was interrupted by Dou Jinde.

"It's a good thing to invest in shares, but our Dou family has no money, what else can be mortgaged on the real estate of this shop?"

While Dou Jinde was talking, he glanced sideways at Dou Liangcai and Dou Huamao who were sitting on both sides.

"Liangcai, Hua Mao, you are all elders of the Dou family. You should show some sincerity in this real estate mortgage." Dou Jinde coughed twice and took a puff of dry smoke.

"Master, it's not that I don't want to, it's just that I'm too poor and can't afford the money. Look at my coat, it's all patched on the inside. I'm so pitiful." Dou Huamao said with a sad face and reached out to lift up his coat.

A corner of it, as expected, was patched.

"What about Liangcai?" Dou Jinde looked at Dou Liangcai next to him.

"Master, I have two shops, but they have been unable to sell goods for a long time. All the original customers went to the shop opened by Yang's Trading Company to buy rouge and gouache. Who would come to my house? In order to pay off debts,

I have mortgaged the deed of the shop to the pawnshop."

Dou Liangcai easily took out several passes with the pawnshop's signature on them.

The juniors sitting below have fully realized that these two elders are so cunning and have prepared this love long ago.

"I have a real estate location that you secretly bought. Do you want me to reveal it?"

Dou Jinde took out two pieces of paper and threw one piece towards each of the two people.

Dou Liangcai and Dou Huamao subconsciously picked up two pieces of paper, glanced at them, and immediately changed their expressions.

The real estate and shops mentioned above were indeed purchased secretly for their own family.

Nowadays, the Dou family has not been divided, and the clans are all integrated. It is okay to buy private property for the family, but it cannot exceed a certain amount, otherwise it will be suspected of corruption.

With this excuse, Dou Jinde could even use the authority of the head of the family to drive them out of the Dou family, along with their wives, concubines, and children.

Although Dou Liangcai and Dou Huamao are both a bit dandy, they are smart people after all. Without the protection of their families, their property cannot be saved at all.

"Master, I am willing to mortgage the real estate." Dou Liangcai's voice was a little hoarse. He didn't care about being embarrassed in front of his juniors, and showed his soft attitude at that time.

"I am willing too." Dou Huamao finally took a step slower, but he lowered his head and no longer had the rebellious expression he had at the beginning.

"I don't force others to do anything. You have to hand over the property beyond the family's agreement. Everything else depends on your personal wishes. Members of the family will be prosperous and suffer losses. You should understand that. In addition, don't hold any grudges.

I am doing this for your own good. For so many years, if the Dou family did not strictly manage the family and strictly follow the family rules, the Dou family would have perished long ago."

"Family rules and traditions must be upright and must be followed according to family rules."

Dou Jinde took a puff of cigarette and said something.

Dou Jinhan looked at this scene and was a little shocked. In the past, the family members said that the head of the family was weak and indifferent. Dou Huamao and Dou Liangcai took care of everything. The family almost forgot that the head of the family existed.

But Jiang is still very old, and Dou Jinde usually doesn't take action, but whenever he does, he will catch both Dou Liangcai and Dou Huamao.

"Jin Han, go on, what exactly does Mr. Luo want to do? How much silver is needed?"

Taking this opportunity to settle Dou Huamao and Dou Liangcai, Dou Jinde was in a bad mood, and the wrinkles on his forehead seemed to have calmed down a bit.

"Master Luo said that their bank can lend us money to buy shares." Dou Jinhan said.

"Oh? Is there such a good thing?" Dou Jinde's dim eyes suddenly opened wide, his mouth opened wide, and even the cigarette holder in his mouth fell out.

Everyone else present also looked at Dou Jinhan in great surprise.

This is a possibility they never thought possible.

Immediately, Dou Huamao and Dou Liangcai began to breathe a little heavier.

If the Dou family could borrow money from Yang's bank to purchase shares, wouldn't they be able to keep a few shares of their real estate? In this way, they would still have change on hand.

"Master, I take this matter seriously, how about you leave it to me?" Dou Liangcai stood up directly.

Dou Liangcai continued: "I used to take care of the clan's money to the outside world. It is natural and reasonable to approach Mr. Luo on this matter."

"Jin Han, Mr. Luo has no other requests?" Dou Jinde had calmed down at this time. He did not respond to Dou Liangcai's words, but looked at Dou Jinhan.

To be honest, based on his many years of experience, no requirements often mean higher requirements, and there may even be huge traps buried in them.

He must be vigilant and cannot turn a blind eye.

"Yes, Mr. Luo said, let me talk to them on behalf of the family about this matter. In addition, the head of the family must personally come forward to pledge the money." Dou Jinhan told Luo Xingchen's request.

"This, Mr. Luo really said that?" Dou Liangcai said loudly immediately, with disbelief in his eyes.

"Yes, can I still lie? One day, grandpa will meet them, and the truth will come out." Dou Jinhan was not very happy in his heart, but he didn't show much expression on the surface.

"I understand, Jin Han will be responsible for this matter. Who agrees? Who opposes?" Dou Jinde narrowed his eyes.

There was silence for a while, and soon Dou Hui was the first to stand up and said: "I agree, Jin Han has the status of a civil servant, and there is no problem in taking charge of this matter."

Dou Jinhan is his biological son, and from his point of view, this is of course no problem.

"We also agree."

Although the others despised it, they all agreed in the end.

There is no other way. Luo Xingchen has appointed Dou Jinhan to be responsible. If someone else is replaced, what if Luo Xingchen refuses to accept the responsibility?

Besides, although Dou Jinhan is young, he has the status of being a scholar. In the Dou family, even if there is no Jinshi, he is already the most brilliant person.

The two people who can show off their seniority have been suppressed by Dou Jinde, and the others may not be better than Dou Jinhan, so they can only agree with it.

That night, Dou Jinde called Dou Jinhan into his study alone.

Dou Jinde looked at Dou Jinhan and felt very pleased.

Although Dou Jinhan is not his only grandson, he is the most promising among his grandchildren. The future development of the Dou family depends on Dou Jinhan.

"Mr. Luo, he is interested in your people. At the same time, he is also interested in the potential power of our Dou family. You have to check this." Dou Jinde pointed out.

"My grandson also knows a little bit, but my grandson is just an official, how can he be favored by Mr. Luo?" Dou Jinhan said.
