For the rest of the journey, Wei Wuyan kept his mouth shut and just focused on pedaling his bike.
Feng Lingyu was staring at the scene around him in a trance.
The streets of Shanghai were crowded with people. Modern-looking girls carrying small handbags could be seen walking on the streets everywhere. Cars and trams passed by from time to time.
It seems that the atmosphere in Shanghai is much more open than that in Beijing.
There were even shops on the street with colorful lights on in their windows and English slogans on them. They looked like foreign trade stores.
"We're here. This is it." Wei Wuyan paused and the bicycle stopped in front of an exquisitely decorated Western-style building.
"Xiao Yu, this is the most popular western restaurant right now. I'll bring you here to try it today and welcome you back, hehe."
Several well-dressed men, wearing floral shirts exactly like Wei Wuyan, walked over carefully. They didn't dare to look at Feng Lingyu for long, but just wondered in their hearts, is this the girl that Brother Wei is going to pick up?
"Brother Wei, we have just ordered the meal as you asked. Here is the meal coupon, please take it. We will leave now." The leader smiled attentively.
Wei Wuyan took the meal ticket and nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, you guys go back and keep an eye on the place for me."
"Don't worry about us doing the work."
After those people left, Wei Wuyan turned to Feng Lingyu and said, "Let's go in."
There were not many people in the western restaurant, only two or three tables sparsely occupied.
The waiters were all wearing neat white shirts and standing by properly. Their service attitude was much better than that of the waiters in state-owned restaurants.
The two chose a seat in a corner and sat down. A few tall green plants just blocked their figures.
Because we had reserved a table in advance, after we confirmed our meal coupons, the dishes that had been prepared long ago were served one by one.
Wei Wuyan even pretended to pour two glasses of red wine.
"Try it. Although this wine is not as good as the fruit wine you gave me, it tastes pretty good."
Feng Lingyu shook the red wine glass in his hand, then took a sip, "It's really good."
"You're living a very carefree life here, even having Western food." Feng Lingyu slowly put down his wine glass and looked at Wei Wuyan leisurely.
After Wei Wuyan had worked with Wang Minghui in Beijing for two years, he was sent to Shanghai by Feng Lingyu to develop new markets.
"Xiao Yu, you are wrongly accusing me! I only came here to try it once. This time I didn't come to treat you." Wei Wuyan's nerves tensed up and he hurriedly explained.
Feng Lingyu asked again: "You have been back for so long, do the people in the Wei family know?"
Wei Wuyan sneered: "I have been hiding well. I know all the places they like to go, but I never go there."
He had just arrived in Shanghai and had no foundation, so it was naturally impossible for him to be stupid enough to confront the Wei family head-on.
"That's good. We don't want to alert the enemy. This time, I came here to cause trouble. It would be best if I could get hold of something that could hold Ling Qingyue accountable."
Wei Wuyan's mouth twitched. He came here to cause trouble but he spoke so seriously.
Next, the two of them ate while chatting about their business in Shanghai.
When Wei Wuyan first came to Shanghai, he had nothing except the start-up capital given to him by Feng Lingyu.
Moreover, the Shanghai stock market is not tight, policies in all aspects are very loose, and the underground market is very prevalent.
Wei Wuyan had a lot of money in his hands, and the first thing he did when he came to the Shanghai Stock Exchange was to find a suitable business.
Important and profitable businesses like grain had long been firmly in the hands of local tyrants, and he had no chance of getting involved when he first arrived.
After suffering several big losses, Wei Wuyan met a clothing merchant from the coastal area, bought goods from him, and started a clothing business.
Many clothing styles in coastal areas were introduced from Hong Kong cities. They were novel and beautiful, and soon became a trend in Shanghai.
In just a few months, Wei Wuyan's capital doubled, which made him taste the sweetness.
So now he is focusing on finding another way out and started selling clothes in the underground market.
After listening to Wei Wuyan's story about his "entrepreneurship experience", Feng Lingyu was a little surprised: "Why didn't you tell me these things?"
She always thought that Wei Wuyan was doing well, but she didn't expect that he would be cheated of money by others.
Wei Wuyan smiled bitterly: "You have so many capable people under you. This is my first time doing business alone, so I definitely want to do a better job."
How could he have the nerve to look for Feng Lingyu? Wouldn't that make him look incompetent?
"The apparel industry has a good future, you have a good vision." Feng Lingyu praised.
"I just received a new batch of goods, the floral shirts like the one I'm wearing. I'll make a lot of money if I sell them!" Wei Wuyan said excitedly after being praised by Feng Lingyu.
Feng Lingyu nodded and suddenly asked, "Did your Wei family mainly engage in the clothing business in the past?"
"Yes, but the factory has been taken over, and Wei Chunming still has some shares. The dividends he got in the past were enough for him to live comfortably."
When talking about the Wei family, Wei Wuyan's tone was somewhat resentful.
Feng Lingyu thought of the savings book with tens of thousands of yuan left by his parents, which also mentioned stock dividends.
The Wei family's factory should get a larger share because their family has left a lot of assets in the open.
The amount is at least hundreds of thousands of dollars. No wonder Wei Chunming can use this money to support his mistress and live a carefree life.
Feng Lingyu used the knife and fork in his hand to cut the steak neatly. There was no sound between the cold-glowing cutlery and the plate.
"Don't worry, they will be dealt with sooner or later."
Feng Lingyu's calm words soothed Wei Wuyan's anxiety. He relaxed his brows and said, "You're right. Let's take it one step at a time."
"Don't be so high-profile in your clothing business. The wind may be changing recently. Tell your people to be more reserved."
Wei Wuyan was stunned. He didn't hear the wind...
However, his trust in Feng Lingyu was already ingrained in his bones, and he knew that she was not someone who would do anything without a purpose, so he subconsciously replied, "Okay, we won't sell clothes during this period."
Feng Lingyu was very satisfied that Wei Wuyan did not ask any further questions.
Ever since she came up with the idea of taking the initiative two years ago, she began to secretly send letters to her superiors through Xiao Zongqi.
Because Mr. Xiao is the person most likely to come into contact with the supreme leader, he has the opportunity to meet the supreme leader directly.
Feng Lingyu quietly predicted several major events that were about to happen in the letter, and finally explained the long-term impact of the current economic stagnation and lack of talent, and then secretly sent it to Xiao Zongqi's hands.
After receiving the letter, Xiao Zongqi originally thought it was a prank, but who would have thought that everything described in the letter would happen one by one, which forced him to believe it.
Therefore, Xiao Zongqi immediately called the secretary of the supreme leader and said that he had an urgent matter to report.
Feng Lingyu didn't care about what happened next.
Matters involving the highest levels were no longer something she could control.
What's more, she didn't expect a letter to have much effect. It was mainly a reminder and warning.
It would be enough if the leaders could realize that if they continue in this way, there will be some harm in the future.
In the past two years of promoting rural cooperatives, Feng Lingyu could clearly feel the relaxation of some policies. Cao Datong also noticed this, so he wanted to build Danyang City into a medicinal materials base.
After dinner, Wei Wuyan took Feng Lingyu away.
