Because of the existence of Tiekuai, no one in the vocational college dared to make plans for Yuan Xiaoyi, let alone cause trouble for her. (..) As one of the four great generals, Zhang Xiaoyong came here, and I can be sure that he came here for me. As for what he wants to do, only he knows. Tiekuai looked at me strangely: "Is he coming here for you?"
I said casually, "Yeah, maybe he wants to kill me."
"Aren't you the boss in this school?" Tiekuai's tone was very surprised.
"Not really." I smiled bitterly: "I'm just a small leader with some brothers under me!"
"Oh!" Iron Block understood and continued, "Do you need my help?"
I was surprised: "Why are you helping me?"
Tiekuai said, "I know that after I came here, Teacher Yuan has fewer friends and less fun in life. Although she didn't say it, I know she must be very upset. But there is no way, I must ensure her safety, these things must be done. So in this situation, I am very grateful that you can accompany Teacher Yuan to sing and chat, and relieve her depression." After saying that, he smiled again, but still looked like an idiot.
Since I met Tiekuai, this was the first time I heard him speak so long. He must have been brewing it for a long time. I didn't expect that he, who looked simple and dull, actually had such a delicate heart and could pay attention to Yuan Xiaoyi's mood.
By the way, if I can get Iron Block to help me, with his super strong fighting power, it shouldn't be a problem to deal with Nie Yuanlong and Qiu Feng, as well as their four red sticks and four generals, right? !
But I didn't even think about it and blurted out, "No, I can do it myself." Perhaps it was the stubbornness in my bones that was at work. I said I would solve them by myself, and I must solve them by myself. How can I be considered a hero if I rely on something like a plug-in like a block of iron to win?
"It's up to you." Tiekuai didn't force it.
The end of the month came quickly, and Nie Yuanlong sent someone to inform the five of us to prepare to pay our share. That morning, Nie Yuanlong's classroom was cleared again, and I and the Four Red Sticks sat around Nie Yuanlong's desk. This month, in general, I didn't gain much. The Four Red Sticks would fight the Four Great Generals every few days, and as usual, it was never my turn to fight. Nie Yuanlong always said it was not the right time, and I felt from the bottom of my heart that he did not fully trust me. How to gain Nie Yuanlong's trust became my first and biggest problem.
Wang Lei, Xiong Fei, and Zhao Peng all paid the money in turn. They had a good harvest this month, and Nie Yuanlong was very satisfied. When it was my turn, I sighed and said, "The sales volume is not very good. I only sold half of the goods." Then I paid 7,000 yuan. Nie Yuanlong took it, but he was not angry. He said, "Take your time. Don't be in a hurry. You can catch big fish with a long line." Others also agreed. Nie Yuanlong looked at Liu Xiangrong again: "You kid, have you quit?" Liu Xiangrong immediately said, "Brother Long, I really have quit." Then he smiled and said, "Next month, can you give me the goods? I am greedy when I see my brothers making money."
Wang Lei said quickly, "Yes, Brother Long, Liu Xiangrong has performed very well, and everyone has been supervising him." He is quite a good person. Xiong Fei and Zhao Pengcai followed to plead for Liu Xiangrong, but it was obvious that they were just going with the flow, and it was not difficult to do a favor at this time. Nie Yuanlong sighed, and a rare look of sadness appeared on his face. Everyone was quite surprised, wondering what could have stumped Nie Yuanlong. "Brother Long, what happened?" Wang Lei asked sympathetically.
"It's difficult to get the goods for next month. It's getting harder and harder to make money." Nie Yuanlong shook his head: "The supplier is raising the price. I'm considering whether we should also raise the price. Otherwise, we will make less and less money if we continue like this."
Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. Wang Lei said, "Brother Long, if we raise the price rashly, it may cause a backlash from the students." Xiong Fei said coldly, "Let them backlash, we set the selling price, how dare you guys rebel?" Wang Lei said quickly, "You can't say that. Even if the price is controlled by us, we can't do it too far. You know, water can carry a boat, but it can also overturn it. If we really push most people to the limit, our lives will not be easy. Qin Shihuang is a good example. He unified the six kingdoms, which was impressive enough, right? But because of his tyranny, some people still came out to oppose him. We are very powerful in the vocational college, but it is best to use both virtue and power to stabilize people's hearts, don't you think?"
I looked at Wang Lei in surprise. I didn't expect him to be able to say such a thing. It's true that you can't judge a book by its cover.
Nie Yuanlong actually nodded: "Wang Lei is right. In the past, when we were monopolizing the market, the students didn't say anything because our prices were the same as those outside. If we raise the price and the prices outside remain the same, it will inevitably arouse public resentment and lead to unimaginable consequences. That's why I'm worried. Now I'm really in a dilemma."
I nodded secretly in my heart. These guys were usually crazy and impulsive, but they were actually quite reasonable. Who can be a big boss without some real skills? Even Maizi from Chenggao knew how to play the "hero saving the beauty" trick when chasing girls - although he failed later. In this era, it is definitely not enough to just be violent and ruthless. The most important thing is to have brains.
Nie Yuanlong sighed again: "Now in the entire Beiyuan City, only the northern part of the city has the ability to produce this stuff, and I am not awesome enough to talk to those people directly. These goods have been sold at least three times since they came to me. The middlemen also want to make a profit, so naturally the price is getting higher and higher. There is nothing we can do about it."
