C10 It Was a Dream Not a Dream!

When Hua Yueying heard Zhang Fann's words, she quickly brought over a parchment contract.

She quickly drew up a contract, which stated that Wang Dongsheng was willing to sell twenty years of his life in exchange for ten million yuan.

"Bite your middle finger and place your fingerprint here!"

Hua Yueying instructed Wang Dongsheng to sign the contract, and he immediately took out an exquisite tray. On the tray, there was an egg-sized seal with a copper coin carved under it.

"Master, please use the seal..."

This was the seal of the Heaven and Earth Pawnshop. Every time an item was collected and stored in the storehouse, it would be stamped with a seal. Zhang Fann had heard Hua Yueying mention it before.

So naturally, Zhang Fann picked up the seal of the Heaven and Earth Pawnshop and stamped it on the parchment. As soon as the seal landed, the entire parchment seemed to come to life.

It looked a little different now.

"Close your eyes and don't move..."

After Hua Yueying glanced at Wang Dongsheng, she looked at the bloody handprint on the sheepskin scroll and reminded Wang Dongsheng. After he closed his eyes, she reached out her hand and waved it above his head.

Zhang Fann noticed that in Hua Yueying's palm, there was suddenly a capsule-like pill that she sold to Old Master Rong. It was a pill that had a year of life.

Hua Yueying placed the longevity pill on the tray and then feinted on Wang Dongsheng's head. Wang Dongsheng, who had his eyes closed the whole time, felt as if his body was very heavy.

His entire body was aching as if he had reached the end of his life.

After twenty to thirty breaths of time, Wang Dongsheng finally heard Hua Yueying calling out to him to open his eyes. Zhang Fann saw that after Hua Yueying took away twenty years of his life, Wang Dongsheng had completely changed.

His hair had gone completely white, and even his eyes were cloudy, as if he had aged twenty years in an instant. He looked sixty.

"Ten million. The deal is done. This is your money. You can go now..."

Zhang Fann pushed two boxes over to Wang Dongsheng. Although the ten million dollar bills were quite heavy, Wang Dongsheng was overjoyed. He didn't mind carrying them in his hand. After bowing to Zhang Fann, he happily took the money and left the room.

"Heaven and Earth Pawnshop? Why would he have such a strange dream?"

In a narrow rented house, Wang Dongsheng suddenly woke up in the middle of the night. All he could remember was a Heaven and Earth Pawnshop.

Wang Dongsheng was in his forties, and he had a son who had been working since he dropped out of school early. Yesterday, a relative introduced his son to a girlfriend.

Originally, the girl and his son had a good relationship, but after coming to his rented house, they were unhappy.

They made it clear that if they were going to be together, they would have to have a house of their own, and they could have no car, but they would have to have a house, and if they married, the man would have to give a lot of money as a betrothal gift.

Wang Dongsheng's family was poor to begin with. He had spent his entire life decorating and painting for others, working as the dirtiest and most tiring painter in order to earn more money, but the money he earned was never enough.

Last year, his wife had an operation and borrowed a lot of money. She had been renting a house all this time. If he wanted to buy a house in full, he would have to pay one or two million yuan. To Wang Dongsheng, it was something he didn't even dare to think about.

During dinner, Wang Dongsheng and his son discussed it and said that they didn't want to ruin the good girl.

At that time, the father and son had a big argument.

His son cried like a child, saying that all those years ago he hadn't been able to buy a house in the school district, that he hadn't been able to get into a better middle school, and that he hadn't been able to pay for tutoring.

Later on, his grades became worse and worse. He could not get into a key high school, so he could only go to a technical school and work after two or three years. Now, he finally had the opportunity to find a wife.

He was troubled by the house again.

Why was Wang Dongsheng so poor? The poor didn't deserve a wife and love...

Although his son's words were not necessarily true, they made Wang Dongsheng's tears flow uncontrollably. For a man in his forties, his tears were like a faucet that could not be stopped.

He felt that he had always worked very hard to live, but why was he always so poor?

He felt helpless about his son's complaints.

He didn't even have a house to live in, let alone a house in the school district.

A school district house that cost millions was not something he could afford with his salary of four or five thousand a month!

Besides, he had a wife who was sick, and he had seven things to do, such as cooking rice, oil, salt, and vinegar tea.

How could he afford to buy his son a house in the school district?

Thinking about how he could buy a house for his son to get married, Wang Dongsheng kept drinking at night, trying to anesthetize himself, trying to make himself fall into a deep sleep and not wake up again, because when he woke up and faced reality, his heart felt too uncomfortable.

He had no money and no ability. He felt tired even when he was alive.

Soon, he had a beautiful dream about Heaven and Earth Pawnshop. In the dream, he spent twenty years of his life in exchange for ten million yuan from a masked man.

Then, he woke up laughing. This dream was really whimsical.

Wang Dongsheng turned on the light and was about to go to the toilet to continue sleeping, but when his foot touched one of the boxes, he kicked it open and saw red and green bills!

The two boxes of money were just like his dreams.

"Ouch, it hurts!"

Wang Dongsheng, who was unable to react for a moment, thought that he was dreaming. Only after he pinched himself did he realize that it hurt a lot. He wasn't dreaming.

The next moment, he ran to the bathroom mirror and looked at himself. Indeed, he looked like he had aged twenty years. This made him feel sad and surprised at the same time.

It wasn't a dream. He had really exchanged twenty years of his life for ten million.

Ten million, ten million! Thinking about how his child had once complained that he didn't buy a house in the school district, Wang Dongsheng's mouth was filled with bitterness. He didn't give his son a good learning environment.

Then let the money that he exchanged for with his life give his son a good home.

Early the next morning, Wang Dongsheng called his son and the girl over and told them seriously that he had saved up some money and used it to invest in stocks.

Now that the stocks had risen, he might as well take out the money and buy them a spacious school district house in the city center.

When the girl heard this, her eyes lit up. She smiled and did not say anything about breaking up. She only respectfully called Wang Dongsheng father, causing the wrinkles at the corner of Wang Dongsheng's eyes to open up.

For him, even if his days were numbered, as long as his son could get married and have a grandson, he would die with no regrets.

As for what other people said, he was an honest man who didn't read much. He didn't understand it, and he didn't want to understand it. He just wanted his son to live a good life!
