"Beiping?" A middle-aged woman walked over from the side.
Ye Beiping looked in the direction of the voice and immediately smiled, "Sister Zhou, what brings you here?"
It turned out that the person who came was Zhou Xiaomei.
The two exchanged brief greetings. Zhou Xiaomei noticed that Tang Xiaolong was busy and didn't go over to disturb him. She whispered to Ye Beiping, "I came here specifically to tell you that the matter you asked me to handle last time has been taken care of."
"Oh?" Ye Beiping's eyes lit up.
The matter concerns Peng Tian and Luo Yonghao. When Jiang Hai and Jiang He came out, he had already planned to retaliate against his competitors.
Now that we've located their warehouse and discovered their operating model, how can we live up to our reputation as good citizens of Hangzhou if we don't report them?
Seeing Ye Beiping's surprise, Zhou Xiaomei sighed and said, "A lot of people have been arrested, but... they are all farmers. The two people you mentioned haven't been arrested yet."
What was initially a good piece of news turned slightly sour upon hearing the rest.
Unexpectedly, Peng Tian and Luo Yonghao got away with it.
Perhaps it was too early, as the two of them were fast asleep in bed.
"Sister Zhou, have the people who were arrested revealed who's behind them?"
“Mmm.” Zhou Xiaomei nodded, glanced around and lowered her voice: “They didn’t mention their names, they just described two bosses, but I don’t know them well. It seems like they found them through a thug.”
"The police are now searching for this thug all over Hangzhou, but he's not easy to catch. He'll probably hide once he hears the news."
Thinking that this era is not like the days when cameras were everywhere, Ye Beiping could only sigh slightly.
It's pretty much certain that Peng Tian and Luo Yonghao have escaped unscathed.
Seeing Ye Beiping sigh, Zhou Xiaomei could only offer one piece of good news: "However, all the goods in the warehouse were confiscated because the farmers confessed that they were paid wages, so it was considered speculation and profiteering, and all the goods were confiscated."
Ye Beiping was overjoyed at this; even if they couldn't catch the culprit, they could at least lose a large sum of money.
Approximately how many?
Zhou Xiaomei looked around and whispered, "Nearly two thousand pairs of leather shoes."
Two thousand pairs?
If we calculate based on a cost price of 20 per pair, that's 40,000.
Ye Beiping couldn't help but be happy that he had directly lost four households with tens of thousands of yuan in income.
But in the past two weeks, they have earned far more than four people who would have earned ten thousand yuan each. This time they have to pay a heavy price, but they won't be so lucky next time.
Ye Beiping could have reported them, but considering Vice Minister Peng and Luo Yonghao's father, he decided against it; there was no need to escalate the conflict to the point of involving their fathers.
If it really affects someone's career, the ensuing retaliation will surely follow one after another.
At this moment, Zhou Xiaomei suddenly asked, "Beiping, you said your warehouse is alright, right? Although the shops are all under their names, how do you explain the warehouse?"
Ye Beiping frowned at this.
With all the key issues resolved, all that's left is the warehouse.
In fact, he had already thought this through: the warehouses would belong to Jiangnan Leather Factory and the First Leather Shoe Factory. This way, the goods could be purchased legitimately with the backing of state-owned factories, and everything could be negotiated smoothly.
I just don't know if they'll agree.
If they knew they didn't actually have a trading company, would they report them?
Unable to figure it out for the time being, Ye Beiping stopped thinking about it and said to Zhou Xiaomei, "Sister Zhou, I have made arrangements for these things. I am very grateful for your help this time."
"It's nothing, it's nothing." Zhou Xiaomei's eyes lit up when she looked at Tang Xiaolong.
Seeing Tang Xiaolong holding a morning meeting in such a serious manner, Zhou Xiaomei, as his mother, found it hard to believe. It seemed that Tang Xiaolong had indeed changed a lot since following Ye Beiping.
Ye Beiping then remembered that he had talked to Zhou Xiaomei about joining the group last time.
"Sister Zhou, what do you think about joining us, the idea I mentioned before?"
"This..." Zhou Xiaomei had thought about it before, but now that Ye Beiping had resolved the problem, she smiled somewhat awkwardly: "Is it alright?"
"certainly."
Ye Beiping spread his hands, a smile playing on his lips: "We welcome you to join our team anytime. I believe that with your participation, we will reach even greater heights."
Whether it's getting a business license or dealing with government officials or gangsters, they really lack someone like Zhou Xiaomei.
So no matter what, Ye Beiping is definitely going to try to bring the other side over.
Zhou Xiaomei thought for a moment and said, "No problem, I'll work with you guys for the one percent profit share you mentioned before."
"Okay, welcome, Sister Zhou." Ye Beiping extended his right hand.
The two shook hands instantly.
At this moment, Tang Xiaolong also came out. Seeing his mother and Ye Beiping's actions, he frowned and asked, "What are you doing?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Beiping smiled and said, "Your mother has already agreed to join our team."
"Really?" Tang Xiaolong's titanium alloy eyes widened instantly, and he said excitedly, "Mom, you finally agreed. You should have agreed a long time ago. Following Brother Beiping will definitely make money."
She was initially quite happy, but upon hearing the second half of Tang Xiaolong's sentence, Zhou Xiaomei rolled her eyes in exasperation.
Now when I go home, I keep calling him "Brother Beiping" over and over again.
She didn't deny Ye Beiping's abilities, but she was speechless, wondering how her son had been cursed.
