Liu Guangtian had been holding back for a long time, and now he finally had a chance to speak: "Hey! I thought it was something, Uncle. Xu Damao has already made his fortune and doesn't care about these pittances. His relationship with his superiors isn't like you think; it was You Fengxia who asked him to do business, but Xu Damao refused, so he introduced us two brothers."
Liu Haizhong chimed in, "I won't lie to you, if my family could handle a container on our own, I wouldn't have come to you."
Yan Bugui whispered a few more words to his third aunt before saying shrewdly, "This can be done, but our two families must share the benefits and risks."
At this moment, Liu Guangfu said with a grin, "Third Uncle, you see, this relationship is our family's relationship, so can we take an extra point?"
Before Yan Bugui could even speak, Yan Jiecheng retorted, "Impossible. You get what you pay for. It's not about how much you get more."
Yan Bugui nodded, agreeing, and said, "That's right, or you can find someone else."
Thus, the Yan and Liu families agreed that the Yan family would take 60% and the Liu family would take 40%.
Liu Haizhong left, seething with anger, along with Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu. When had he ever felt so aggrieved, having to let others take the lion's share of the business while he only got a small portion?
After they left, the Yan family quickly began to make their plans.
The third aunt brought out paper and pen, and after writing and drawing for a long time, she asked Yan Jiecheng with a puzzled look: "Eldest son, I think your calculations are wrong."
Yan Jiecheng said nonchalantly, "I'll take 70%, and you and my dad will take 30%. What's wrong with that?"
The three women pointed to the calculated result and said, "But we took 40% of the money."
Seeing that they couldn't reach an agreement, Yan Jiecheng stood up to leave: "Dad, Mom, if you two feel that you've lost out on this deal, then I'll go ask my younger brother and sister; they can raise the money too."
The third uncle then slammed his hand on the table: "You're going too far by not sharing good things with your parents."
In the end, they forced Yan Jiecheng to give up 0.2 points for his parents' sake...
After Yan Jiecheng left, the third uncle was still smug: "That's what you call managing your children's finances carefully, every little bit helps."
At Fatty's house, Xu Damao sat smugly on the sofa, legs crossed, a wicked grin on his face: "Brother, those two old geezers have fallen for it."
After hearing the whole story, the fat man wasn't surprised, since that's how they were fooled in TV dramas too.
I just feel like the number of TVs doesn't quite match up.
After hearing his doubts, Xu Damao looked disdainful: "That Li Huaide is all talk. I had someone investigate him. What kind of big boss is he pretending to be? He's just an empty shell!"
The fat man suddenly realized: "So it's a shell company."
Xu Damao was stunned for a moment, then excitedly slapped the sofa armrest: "Brilliant, absolutely brilliant! A shell company, isn't that exactly what a shell company is? The whole company is in a bag, ready to run away at any time!"
Seeing that the fat man had come up with another new term, Yu Li, though already used to it, still said with interest, "Then aren't they just scammers?"
Xu Damao's two small mustaches twitched again: "Sister-in-law is right, they are just two swindlers. Let me tell you, Li Huaide's little money is only enough to buy two 40-foot shipping containers."
Yu Li wasn't quite sure about the concept: "A forty-foot container?"
The fat man explained to her, "A 40-foot container is a container with internal dimensions of 11.8 meters x 2.13 meters x 2.18 meters. The gross weight of the cargo is usually 22 tons, and the volume is 54 cubic meters."
Yu Li was genuinely surprised: "Wow, this is bigger than our house!"
The fat man waved his hands repeatedly: "It's not that exaggerated, but it's enough to fit 130 television sets."
Before leaving, Xu Damao said to the fat man, "Brother, you'd better get the money ready quickly. Once those two families have lost everything, this house will be..."
In the TV series, it was Xu Damao who called the inspection department to report the case, and ended up ripping off Liu Haizhong, Yan Bugui, Li Huaide and You Fengxia, who only offered him a brokerage fee but not a commission.
"..."
The time for Yan Jiecheng and his group to make their transaction was fast approaching.
To avoid suspicion, Xu Damao returned to the electronics factory several days earlier than planned.
Fatty came to see Thunder Tiger today: "There's going to be a good show later, are you coming with me?"
Benleihu glanced at Chen Yan, then at the fat man, looking suspicious: "What's the show?"
The fat man glared at him angrily: "Are you going or not?"
Benleihu chuckled: "Go away, you think you can sell me out?"
The fat man rolled his eyes and told him, "Remember to bring the flashlight later," before going back inside.
At 9 p.m., Fatty and Benleihu, wearing raincoats, sneaked into the fourth transportation yard.
The two found a great spot with a commanding view and quietly waited to watch the show.
It was a cold, rainy night, and just as Benleihu was about to protest, the fat man shoved a piece of chocolate into his hand.
He ate the food piece by piece with satisfaction, and asked the fat man, "So, from the beginning, you and Xu Damao knew about this?"
The fat man nodded calmly: "I know."
Benleihu said with a disdainful look, "Didn't you think about exposing that pair of notorious thieves?"
The fat man gestured downwards with his lip: "You think you're so great, so high and mighty? The Yan family is all down there. Go down and tell them to run! Go on!"
Ben Lei Hu chuckled guiltily. What a joke! Yan Bu Gui was no relative to him, and he had no reason to get involved in this mess.
The fat man tossed a chocolate bean into his mouth: "I thought you didn't even remember what good things those two old geezers had done."
How could Benlei Hu not remember? That old bastard Yan Bugui wrote letters of complaint and petitioned everywhere, trying to get his wife Chen Yan imprisoned!
That old bastard is really ruthless. If Chen Yan hadn't stopped him, he would have already shown that old man Yan Bugui what he was capable of.
Benleihu and his gang had all sorts of crazy and unorthodox methods back then; you could write a book about them all.
As for Liu Haizhong, that old bastard actually tried to get his two sons to lead a group to ransack Fatty's house back then. Fatty has never forgiven him to this day.
Now, Li Huaide has stepped in and put on this grand show. He manages to bankrupt both families, help the fat man acquire their houses, and get to watch a good show for free—a win-win-win situation! Where else can you find such a great deal?
The fat man heard it clearly: disaster was about to strike, yet Yan Bugui was still settling scores with Yan Jiecheng.
Yan Jiecheng held a tree branch and drew on the ground: "One hundred units is 140,000, right? One hundred and thirty units is 183,400. That's the turnover. Your net profit is 55,000."
The three women quickly said, "No, it's fifty-five thousand and twenty!"
After the three women finished speaking, they said in a tone that said, "I knew you all along, so I calculated it for you. Our family's profit is 30%, and your family's profit is 31%."
