Chapter 93: Swords and Shadows



Chen Tinghan quickly scanned the entire private room. It seemed that Lu Qing had arranged and given instructions. There were no waiters or outsiders disturbing him inside or outside the room. Only a man in plain clothes led him in. Judging from his habitually vigilant posture and eyes, he should be a bodyguard.

Looking more closely, he found that there was a jammer in the room, but it was not turned on yet. Without further investigation, Chen Tinghan dared to conclude that there must be video and audio recording equipment here. Frame-up is the most common method used by these despicable people to drag others into trouble.

Lao Zhou has already given the news that Lu Qing has become the target of the drug enforcement team. There is no direct evidence at present, and they only suspect that he is taking drugs, but are not sure whether he is a drug dealer.

Chen Tinghan smiled and said, "Brother, you are so impressive. You even bring bodyguards with you when you have a meal."

Lu Qing was a little surprised. He said, "How do you know that's... Hey, I'm used to it. There are a lot of bad people in Wanghai, but it's not so bad now. In the past, my family would always bring three bodyguards with them when we went out. That guy out there has been working for me for more than 20 years and is very reliable. If it weren't for the face I had to give to Boss Zhu, he should have been there at the party yesterday.

It's okay, nothing serious, he won't bother us, we just have to eat our food."

Lu Qing invited him to sit down, and he stood aside, lifting a corner of the curtain to look outside. After confirming that there was nothing unusual, he took his seat and said with a smile, "You are truly a hero in your youth. I always tell people that he is my driver, but you can tell at a glance that I am your bodyguard. Amazing."

"Where can you find such a strong driver?" Chen Tinghan said with a smile, "It's really impressive to have someone following you when you go out."

"Those were all given by my family. I don't have that ability. So I admire you very much. You are so young and still in high school, but you are so knowledgeable and can do things on your own." Lu Qing poured him a cup of tea and said.

Chen Tinghan stroked the rim of the cup with his fingers, but didn't drink. He smiled and said, "You're too kind."

"Hey, what's the point of saying it's an exaggeration? Miss Wang isn't someone you'd want to get along with. I heard she's already fallen in love with you. Doesn't that prove something?"

"What do you mean by infatuated?" Chen Tinghan shook his head and said, "I'm not that lucky. We just get along well. Come to think of it, I heard that you were interested in her, and I thought you would be hostile to me because of it."

"I'm not one of those idiot playboys. I admire her completely. If I can get her, I'll get her. If I can't, I'll just watch from afar." Lu Qing said, "Money is the only way. Women hate those who can make money for them. I can't do that."

"To use their current popular saying, what they carry in their pockets is old money, and what our family earns is new money. Ordinary businessmen don't have the capital to be so willful."

"Brother Lu is insightful and a man who can accomplish great things." Chen Tinghan gave a thumbs up and feigned agreement.

"Since we're both big business people, let's be frank." After a lot of back-and-forth, Lu Qing finally got to the point: "Brother, can you tell me about the specific operating models of your businesses?"

"Which part are you referring to?" Chen Tinghan asked knowingly.

"That 'logistics' you mentioned."

Chen Tinghan pretended to be surprised and asked, "Are you interested in this part? I thought we were going to talk about the sale directly. It's not a big deal. Brother, you know, I now have cooperation with catering, school uniforms and the like. From getting the goods to the warehouse to delivering them to the customers, how to deliver them and how much it costs are all problems.

So one day I started thinking, this kind of thing isn't that difficult to make. Handing it over to someone else would be unreliable and cost money. I figured, this is a hot topic. Since the barrier to entry is low and everyone needs it, why shouldn't I make the money?

So I recruited taxis, motorcycle taxis, and trucks that used to transport sand.

"Very far-sighted!" Lu Qing said excitedly, "Speaking of us in Wanghai, we are slower than outsiders in eating shit. You said that various express delivery networks and outlets have been popular for a long time, and we in Wanghai are still in the stage of cautious layout. Those bosses with a net worth of tens of millions or even hundreds of millions don't have as much vision as you.

If you trust me, why not tell me what you are going to do? "

Chen Tinghan looked at him and suddenly smiled and said, "From what you said, Brother Lu, do you want to form a partnership?"

"Smart." Lu Qing praised: "My family runs a supermarket, and transportation accounts for the bulk of the cost. Because our supermarket sells fresh food, these things cannot be delayed.

So here's what I'm thinking: I'll put up the money, and we'll use the resources we have now to build the channel first, using our family business as a small pilot. If it works, we'll set up a company and follow the model of other provinces. Having a foundation means you have a natural advantage."

Here comes the point.

The so-called fresh produce was definitely just a cover. The Lu family was one of the owners of Wanghai Friendship. Which group would be short of logistics personnel? Wouldn't they have similar channels? Chen Tinghan couldn't believe it. Why would Lu Qing settle for second best and hire a greenhorn like him?

The reason is simply that the things he wants to transport cannot be seen in public.

The Lu family's channels are huge and involve too many things. It is easy to fool and manipulate them with a high school student like him. He can slip something into the so-called "fresh food" waybill. Even if he is discovered, there is still a long way to go. By cutting out the beginning and end of the video and audio recorded during the cooperation, he can edit them and that will be the evidence of Chen Tinghan selling banned drugs.

He pretended to be delighted, but he was a little hesitant. He said, "Can it be done? I didn't want to set up such a big stall at the beginning. Can I handle it?"

"I just praised you for your foresight." Lu Qing laughed and said, "Don't worry, your brother is a man of great stature. Don't panic, I'm here."
