After rebirth, I rejected the rich yandere lady

The first was to take advantage of this summer vacation to try and secure all the advertising on the entire food street.

Although they could now rely on the big tree of Tengxun to enjoy the shade, that was because many people and the laws and regulations were not yet fully developed, especially concerning the internet and short videos.

The Advertising Law did not apply, so there were loopholes to exploit.

The current money-making methods might be illegal in a few years.

He had already submitted the documents to set up his own media company, and once he paid the taxes, he basically didn\'t have to worry anymore.

The second thing was to get a driver\'s license before college, figuring that he would at least need to get a car of his own, otherwise, he wouldn\'t be able to enjoy being a co-pilot.

No sooner said than done.

Xu Musen planned to drag He Qiang with him to sign up for the driving test in the next couple of days.

You didn\'t need to attend a set number of classes for the driving test now, and by paying an extra "VIP" fee, as long as you didn\'t make a mistake, you could get your license within a month.

Xu Musen used to be a personal driver for a female CEO in his previous life, so naturally, his driving skills were not a problem.

Scrolling through the traffic regulations test questions.

Xu Musen also started to shoot and edit for the food street merchants one by one.

But this was ultimately a labor-intensive job, lugging a camera around in the summer heat and filming for half a day, with even longer post-production editing time.

Even if he worked himself to death, Xu Musen could not secure many merchants in a month.

After school started, he didn\'t know which city he would be in, and this first golden opportunity to make a fortune would be wasted.

Therefore, Xu Musen thought he could look for some helpers.

Plus, he didn\'t need professionals, just people who could use a camera and shoot according to a sample.

What he needed now was a conveyor belt of human miners, cheap, hassle-free, and ones who would pay for their own medical treatment if they got sick...

Huh?

Why did Xu Musen always feel like there\'s a street lamp waving at him?

Of course, before solving the personnel issue, he had to first solve the camera problem.

Electronics were still expensive nowadays; a camera easily cost five figures, and if he really recruited dozens of people, he would need at least five or six cameras.

Editing also required computers—and all of that needed money.

Not to mention that later on, he wanted to set up his own studio and build servers, all of which required significant funds.

He still had money in hand, but he couldn\'t go all in, so he still had to take the field himself for the past few days.

Xu Musen sighed. He felt a bit like a skillful woman who couldn\'t cook without rice.

Still poor...

Indeed, there\'s no perfect solution in the world; refusing to live off others meant decades more of struggle.

Xu Musen sat in his room looking at the backend data. Imitators had already appeared on the market, but Xu Musen, relying on the first-mover advantage and a unique comic style, still remained the big brother among its kind.

But Xu Musen could already feel that Tengxun was beginning to support its own imitators and probably wouldn\'t be long before they tried to somehow "co-opt" Xu Musen.

If you can\'t make it, then copy it—old Penguin traditions.

Xu Musen had to make the most of the current popularity to rake in his first pot of gold and then strike out on his own!

So these days, Xu Musen and He Qiang were engaged in intensive shooting every day. Under the summer heat, his skin had even started to turn red, while He Qiang thought this temperature was nothing compared to the heat and humidity at the fish pond.

"You two as well, don\'t overexert yourselves, and you\'re even dragging poor He Qiang out to get sunburned with you."

The main battlefield was on business street, and after filming, they would return to the flower shop to rest.

Xu\'s mother was pained to see the two of them sweat-soaked.

What parent doesn\'t wish for their child to travel and have fun during the vacations?

But the family\'s financial situation didn\'t allow it, and seeing her son return red-skinned from the sun every day made her heart ache.

She quickly let them cool off with air conditioning and drink some water.

Yao Mingyue also came to the flower shop to help out when she could, frowning at the sight of Xu Musen\'s sunburned skin.

Xu Musen went to wash his face, and suddenly he caught a familiar scent.

When he looked up, there was Yao Mingyue right in front of him, looking at him.

"What\'s up?"

"Xu Musen, are you really short of money right now?"

Yao Mingyue asked directly.

"I\'ve always been short of money."

Nonsense!

If I weren\'t short of money, I would\'ve taken to my heels last lifetime.

Yao Mingyue took another look at him for a few seconds, her red lips slightly parted, "How much money do you need? I can lend it to you..."

"Stop!"

Xu Musen felt as if he had heard the gunshot of judgment, and in the heat of a great summer\'s day, he felt a sudden chill down his spine.

He didn\'t want to touch Yao Mingyue\'s money, not even a single cent!

Seeing him so agitated, Yao Mingyue also bit her lip, "What do you mean? Aren\'t you short of money? I can give it to you, then you can buy whatever you want..."

"What I want can\'t be bought with money."

Xu Musen steadied his breathing and looked at Yao Mingyue, "You should also understand that not everything in this world can be bought with money."

Yao Mingyue did not understand what he was talking about, but his sense of alienation made her feel really annoyed.

"So you just sunbathe like this every day?"

"I sunbathe because it makes me happy. Earning money through labor is the most glorious!"

Xu Musen was full of slogans.

But honestly, despite being tired, this sense of freedom was truly exhilarating.

After washing his face, he wiped it with a towel and left immediately.

Yao Mingyue squinted her eyes, taking the towel Xu Musen had used to wipe his face and held it in her hands. She rubbed it gently, her eyes shimmering with light.

At night.

Xu Musen had just finished dinner when Liu Rushuang suddenly called him over.

In the villa, Liu Rushuang touched Xu Musen\'s sunburnt red skin with pity, patting his head, "You really must take better care of your body, even while making money."

As she spoke, her gaze shifted to Yao Mingyue, "Ming Yue, bring your body lotion and apply some on Xiaosen."

"Auntie, that won\'t be necessary..."

Xu Musen saw the fleeting excitement in Yao Mingyue\'s eyes.

"Be a good boy, otherwise your skin will crack from the sunburn tomorrow."

Liu Rushuang spoke authoritatively, making him sit on the couch.

Yao Mingyue came over with the body lotion, sitting naturally beside Xu Musen.

On his left and right, Xu Musen suddenly felt a great pressure.

"How about I do it myself?"

"No, you won\'t be able to apply it evenly by yourself; let Ming Yue do it."

Liu Rushuang said, observing Xu Musen\'s somewhat awkward expression, she chuckled meaningfully, "Xiaosen, you aren\'t getting shy, are you? Or should I apply it for you instead?"

In that instant, Yao Mingyue\'s gaze became a tad jealous, her lips pursed as she looked at Xu Musen.

"...let\'s not trouble you."

Xu Musen couldn\'t do anything about being mothered by his potential mother-in-law.

Yao Mingyue\'s lips curved up in an instant; she first squeezed some body lotion into her hands and rubbed them together. Although there was a hint of excitement in her eyes, she was still very careful when she began to apply it.

She really applied it with great care.

"Xiaosen, I heard these past few days that you\'ve started doing business?"

Liu Rushuang asked him with a smile.

"It\'s just me earning a little pocket money, not really a business."

"That\'s also good; a boy with this kind of initiative is bound to be successful in the future."

Liu Rushuang looked at Xu Musen, feeling increasingly satisfied with him.

"Right, there\'s something I need to give you."

As she spoke, she took out a modest, unadorned box from beside her and handed it to Xu Musen.

"This is?"

"Open it, and you\'ll see," said Liu Rushuang with a slightly wistful tone.

Xu Musen, afraid that upon opening it he might find another bank card or something similarly weighty.

He opened the box, and inside lay a Rolex watch.

Xu Musen\'s face froze for a moment.

No way, have you mother and daughter planned to stuff my mouth with food?
