If he doesn't show any aversion at first, then what follows is endless depravity.
But are there people in this world who are averse to money?
"What is your name?" Lu Feng asked him.
“Charlie!” His voice was weak.
Charlie had seen money before, after all, he inspected some companies, but this was the first time he had ever seen wealth displayed in this way. This method was incredibly tacky, the face of a nouveau riche. But for some reason, he felt that this tacky thing had a charming fragrance, especially the smell of banknotes, which felt more relaxing than a massage.
"Lu Feng! We are an international company from the East, mainly selling home appliances. We are new to your country and unfamiliar with the place, so it's easy to be scammed. To be honest, we are really scared by such a big show of force today. We are here to generate revenue for your country, since we want to invest the money we earn. We have provided jobs and have been here for a while. We have indeed felt the high quality and enthusiasm of the British people, but this is the first time we have seen law enforcement."
“We should be friends. What businesses hate most are criminals. Since you’ve already taken action, I believe that agency must have problems. As the saying goes, having more friends means having more options. I’ve gotten to know you today. When I was in my country, I often dealt with these leaders and officials. If you know me a little, you’ll know that I’m a very generous person. I often give them furniture and such.”
As Lu Feng spoke, he patted the sofa next to him.
Charlie knew that this company had a dirty past. They only came to investigate after receiving a report from Beko. Based on the information they had, at most they would be charged with false advertising and fined very little. These were minor issues that didn't really matter.
Any chair in this office could be fined, and many local businesses are like this. Plus, this smiling young man in front of me seems very capable and speaks very nicely.
"That's where you are. Do you think you can do that here?" Charlie's criticism sounded rather weak.
"Yes, yes, I will definitely correct myself. I like making friends. I'll organize a gathering another day and invite you to dinner. There will be many important people there. I have quite a few friends in customs, taxation, and market inspection to have made my business this successful."
Lu Feng was unwilling to spend money on a nobody like him. He would rather just offer empty promises. He had already shown him so much money, and he also knew many important people, which was enough for Lu Feng to imagine.
Charlie sat there, feeling the 'discomfort' beneath him, licked his lips, and looked at Lu Feng, saying, "Are you describing a wonderful future to me?"
“No! I’m stating the facts. At your age, you have plenty of room for advancement. You are perfectly capable of running for office. If you do, I will definitely support you. We are an international company and we need friends!” Lu Feng stared at him with a smile.
Charlie felt a burning sensation in his chest. How many people could possibly digest this kind of pancake?
"Let me be frank, your company's problems aren't that big, but it's best to avoid getting involved in pyramid schemes. They've been very damaging to us in the last two years!" Charlie warned.
"Don't worry, absolutely not. We're a legitimate business." Lu Feng finished speaking, walked to his desk, opened a drawer, took out a business card, noticed a small gold bar in the drawer, took it out and placed it under the business card. He then put the business card in Charlie's suit jacket pocket, saying, "My business card!"
A few minutes later, Charlie walked out, and Lu Feng followed behind, closing the office door behind him.
"Alright, we've gathered all the relevant information. We don't need to investigate here anymore. Focus on investigating that Riggs store. Let's call it a day!" Charlie said, leading the way downstairs.
Lu Feng watched the crowd leave, took a deep breath, and realized he needed to find a backer now, otherwise this path would be blocked. Making small money was possible, but making big money would be difficult.
"Hasn't that old codger Sean arrived yet?" Lu Feng asked Manager Li.
"They said on the phone that they're contacting someone and they'll come over later."
"We can't wait for him. Let's have a meeting, suspend the activities, and reassure the existing agents!"
Lu Feng knew that the current situation required a two-pronged approach. In the market, companies like Beko and even Siemens were about to enter, and in terms of supervision, he needed to get to know more leaders. He should spend money where necessary, because hoarding resources would only lead to starvation in the end!
