At 6 p.m., in a private room at Jufulou Dojo, Yangzi called over six comrades. Although they weren't very familiar with each other, they quickly became acquainted after a couple of drinks.

The word "comrade-in-arms" is so magical. The four ironclad bonds in life are: studying together, fighting together, visiting prostitutes together, and sharing the spoils together.

Regardless of the circumstances, the experience of serving in the same unit and carrying a gun cannot be faked.

Once they started reminiscing about the past, they couldn't stop talking.

Yangzi was also cracking jokes, making the scene quite lively.

When Xiaoman arrived, she found that the people in the private room were already flushed from drinking.

These old guys are really something else. They drank two cases of beer with just a few plates of cold dishes and peanuts on the table. (Bottled beer, 12 bottles per case)

Zhang Long was the only one who seemed normal, but there were already seven or eight beer bottles at his feet.

With the girls arriving, the situation definitely needs to be controlled a bit. This is like a signal for a halftime break. Anyway, there will be another round later, so just play your best then.

Once everyone had arrived, Yangzi went to call the waiter to serve the food.

After all the dishes were served, everyone raised their glasses for an opening toast, and then it was just eating, drinking, smoking, and chatting.

Seeing that everyone had almost finished eating and drinking, Yangzi seized the opportunity to ask, "Brother Long, how much fruit do you want to buy this time?"

Zhang Long immediately understood that this was meant for the people present.

After considering it for a moment, he said, "My goal this time is to have all kinds of local fruits. They can be sold separately or in bulk, but I need a minimum price for them!"

“I have a fruit processing plant in Pengshi. Some of the lower-grade fruits can be processed into dried fruit, juice and other by-products.”

"If any of you here have connections, you can contact the plantation. I will set up a purchasing station at the flower market. As long as the quantity is sufficient, I will immediately send a large truck to pick it up. If the quality can be guaranteed, we can also sign a long-term contract."

"Of course, if you have connections, you can also go to those remote rural areas to collect them and sell them to my purchasing station to make a profit."

"As long as you feel there's money to be made, you can do this business."

"No quantity limit, I'll take as many as you have."

As soon as Zhang Long finished speaking, the minds of the people present quickly began to stir.

Judging from Zhang Long's words, he's going to help them get rich!

Fruits from remote mountainous areas in the countryside are priced differently than those around the city. As long as the quantity is large enough, even a difference of a few cents can amount to a considerable income. This business has great potential. They don't lack the drive to act; what they lack is the channel. With Zhang Long as their monetization channel, how far away is money from them?

Apart from Chen Yang, who has a secure job, the other comrades present are all ordinary office workers, earning only three or four thousand yuan a month.

The group exchanged glances. These days, who doesn't have a few relatives in the countryside? Having made up their minds, they quickly picked up their glasses and toasted Zhang Long.

Zhang Long didn't care if they made a little profit; there's no reason to expect the horse to run without feeding it.

Besides, you can never earn enough money. As long as it's in your own interest, there's nothing wrong with helping your comrades earn some hard-earned money.

Soon the group moved on to the next activity: foot massage and karaoke.

Zhang Long drank quite a bit today, and after returning to the hotel, he slept soundly until dawn.

The next morning, Zhang Long received the samples brought back by the group. He hadn't expected them to be so proactive; it seemed their motivation to make money was very strong.

So he called Li Ping, the marketing manager, and asked her to retrieve the quotations from the purchasing agents he had previously sent out, so that he could comprehensively evaluate the purchase price here.

Because that batch of purchases was contracted with Bailong Foodstuff Company, and was influenced by the "absolute loyalty" clause, the price they offered was one that neither harmed the company's interests nor prevented them from making a small profit.

Li Ping is very motivated now. In less than ten minutes, a new quotation was sent to Zhang Long's WeChat.

He sent it directly to a few comrades and let them consider it themselves.

These comrades happily returned with the quotation.

Zhang Long felt that the flower market was ready, so he packed his bags and prepared to change the map. He hadn't expected things to go so smoothly.

He then traveled along several cities in Sichuan Province, changing maps almost every day, and was received by comrades in each city.

Well, a comrade's comrade is also a comrade!

With shared interests as a link, Zhang Long quickly recruited hundreds of comrades in Sichuan Province to become his subordinate suppliers.

They even extended their reach to non-staple foods, having agents in every city of Sichuan Province. The terms were the same: the first batch of goods was sold off first, and payment was made only if the goods sold well; otherwise, the goods were returned.

He took over more than half a month to conquer most of the 18 cities in Sichuan Province and is now preparing to return to Shenzhen.

Zhang Long went back for a simple reason: his sports car had arrived.

Because this Lamborghini Aventador LP750-4 Superveloce was a custom-made vehicle, it features two giant red dragons painted on the sides, making the renderings very eye-catching.

This is a factory-modified car, and the dragon pattern alone cost him 1.3 million yuan, which can be described as extremely extravagant.

After all the paperwork was completed, the car cost 12.58 million yuan.

The deposit alone amounted to 3.774 million yuan. If he calls now to say he doesn't want the car anymore, the money will be wasted unless the order is transferred.

The thought of being able to pick up my car as soon as I got back made even the fatigue from the past few days of running around much lessen.

Sitting in first class on the plane, Zhang Long's excitement gradually faded, replaced by exhaustion, and he soon fell asleep.

Even the flight attendant who had been lingering near his seat sighed slightly upon seeing him. She had originally wanted to ask this handsome guy for his contact information, but he had started sleeping as soon as he boarded the plane.

Just as the plane was landing, a flight attendant took the opportunity of waking Zhang Long up to secretly slip a note into his pocket.

There are always mountains beyond mountains, and people beyond people. Another flight attendant went even further, setting her WeChat QR code as her screensaver and coming to Zhang Long.

"Sir, please give me the blanket."

Then he put the phone in front of Zhang Long and winked at him.

Looking at the flight attendant in front of him, who was probably around 91 points, he opened WeChat and scanned her QR code.

Soon the plane began its descent, and only then did all the restless flight attendants quiet down.

Every time Zhang Long takes a flight, he gets extremely nervous during landing, his heart pounding uncontrollably until he lands safely.

Every time I get off the plane, I say I'll never fly again, but every time I travel, my first choice is always by plane.
