Two days later, Wang Peng picked up the engineer from the British Elevator Factory at the provincial capital's international airport.
The four of them saw the sign held by Du Lei and the others, and immediately came over with their suitcases.
"Hello, Mr. Wang." Dai Lefu shook hands with Wang Peng. "My Chinese name is Dai Lefu. It's a pleasure to meet you."
“Dear Mr. Dai, welcome to the mysterious East,” Wang Peng said in English. “It’s a pleasure to meet you.”
The four engineers were all young men with long beards. They introduced themselves and then shook hands with Wang Peng.
After getting to know each other, they got into the company's business vehicle and went to Xinglan Hotel to rest.
To show his appreciation for them, Wang Peng specially hired an English exchange student with culinary skills to prepare authentic English cuisine.
The four engineers ate heartily, praising the food highly. Dai Lefu gave a thumbs up: "Mr. Wang, I can feel your sincerity."
Wang Peng smiled slightly: "We welcome our friends with good wine; that's our custom here."
“That’s very good practice, thank you,” said David. “Mr. Wang, could you take us to the construction site?”
"Let's go tomorrow, there's no time today." Wang Peng glanced at his watch; it was already 5:30 PM.
After the meal, Wang Peng, accompanied by hotel staff, escorted them to their respective guest rooms.
After chatting with Dai Lefu for a few minutes, he returned to his private suite on the sixth floor. This was his private room here, which he could stay in for free.
"Brother Peng, I just called Meijing, and she said there are Brilliant spies here," Du Lei said.
"Hmm?" Wang Peng sat on the sofa, crossing his legs. "What spy?"
"They're one of the hotel's staff members. You often receive VIPs here, and they collect the VIPs' information and then notify Huihuang."
Du Lei sneered and said softly, "Meijing is the boss Feng Daliang's niece. She used to work as a waitress here, so her words are reliable."
Wang Peng nodded, but wasn't surprised. It's quite normal for competitors to bribe each other's employees.
"Brother Peng, should I drag him out?" Du Lei said, a ruthless glint in his eyes.
“There’s no need.” Wang Peng waved his hand. “We can’t keep our elevator installation a secret for long. I reckon Wang Cheng has spies in England too.”
"What?" Du Lei's eyes suddenly widened. "Brother Peng, does he really have that much ability?"
“Don’t underestimate him,” Wang Peng said with a smile. “With the strength of Brilliant Company, it’s not difficult for them to bribe a few English students.”
Hearing this, Du Lei stopped worrying and asked, "What do we do next?"
Wang Peng thought about it carefully and replied, "Try to keep it a secret as long as possible."
Ghost King Supermarket, Store No. 5, CEO's Office.
Wang Cheng put down his phone and looked at Zhao Laixi: "There are four elevator factory engineers from England. Wang Peng received them at the Xinglan Hotel."
"An elevator?" Zhao Laixi frowned slightly. "His store number five only has five floors. Is it necessary to install an elevator?"
“It’s necessary. My informant in England explained the elevator to me in detail, which can save guests time going up and down the stairs.”
Wang Cheng said, "Chairman, I suggest we do the same. Whatever Wang Peng has, we must have too."
Zhao Laixi lit a cigarette and fell into deep thought. He knew there were two types of elevators: one was straight up and down, and there were elevator manufacturers in China.
One type is the automatic staircase, which is not available in China and can only be imported from countries such as Europe and the United States.
Wang Cheng smiled and said, "Chairman, Wang Peng is coming on strong, we must be cautious. If we lose Store No. 5, we'll be..."
"Don't say such discouraging things," Zhao Laixi said in a deep voice. "I'll leave this matter to you. We'll also install an elevator at Store No. 5."
"Thank you, Chairman." Wang Cheng was secretly delighted. His favorite part was making ingredients, because there was money to be made from it.
Zhao Laixi stood up, staring straight at Wang Cheng without saying a word.
"Chairman, what's wrong?" Wang Cheng felt a chill run down his spine. "Why are you looking at me like that?"
Zhao Laixi smiled slightly: "Wang Peng is, after all, your own brother. You won't betray Huihuang in the future, will you?"
"How could that be?" Wang Cheng hurriedly stood up straight. "The person I hate the most in my life is Wang Peng. If there's only one person left in this world who wants Wang Peng to die, it's definitely me."
"Hehe." Zhao Laixi patted his shoulder. "You two brothers are really something. Keep up the good work."
He stubbed out his cigarette and turned to walk towards the door.
“Chairman,” Wang Cheng called out to him, “Tang Zewu’s KFC is also very important. I hope he won’t be bribed by Wang Peng.”
"Absolutely not, don't worry." After saying that, Zhao Laixi left the president's office.
Wang Cheng immediately locked the door, plopped down on the sofa, and quickly lit a cigarette to calm his nerves.
He had an improper relationship with Zhao Laixi's young wife, constantly cheating on Zhao Laixi, and was most worried about being exposed.
But he didn't dare break off contact with his girlfriend, because that woman was not someone to be trifled with.
After finishing his cigarette, Wang Cheng gave a cold laugh: "Zhao Laixi, you think your alliance with Tang Zewu is unbreakable? You underestimate Wang Peng."
At Xinglan Hotel, Wang Peng knocked on Dai Lefu's door.
"Mr. Wang, please come in." Dai Lefu hurriedly invited Wang Peng into the house, showing great enthusiasm.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Wang Peng said, "Engineer Dai, if my competitor came to you and also asked you to install elevators, what would you do?"
Dai Lefu was taken aback, and immediately frowned. He didn't know how to answer the question; the company hadn't considered this situation before he came.
He looked up, smiled, and asked, "Mr. Wang, what do you think?"
Wang Peng said, "What I mean is that you can't contact him, and you can't help them design elevators."
“Because all your expenses here are covered by me. Mr. Dai, do you understand what I mean?” Wang Peng added.
After thinking carefully, Dai Lefu said to the novel, "Mr. Wang, may I report to the company and receive instructions from them?"
“Okay.” Wang Peng stood up, patted him on the shoulder, and said, “Give me an answer by tomorrow morning.”
With that, he left Xinglan Hotel and drove back to Brothers No. 1 Store.
Before I even reached the store entrance, I received a call from Dai Lefu.
He said on the phone, "Mr. Wang, I have already consulted with the company, and the company does not allow me to do anything else. My job is to serve you."
“Very good.” Wang Peng smiled slightly and said, “Mr. Dai, thank you for your understanding.”
After exchanging a few words, Wang Peng hung up the phone, handed the car to the security guard, and walked into the No. 1 store.
A figure suddenly appeared in front of him: "Brother Peng!"
Wang Peng was taken aback; it was Tang Zewu's daughter, Tang Xiaoyue. He was somewhat bewildered. "Xiaoyue, is something wrong?"
Tang Xiaoyue said softly, "You helped me that day, I'd like to treat you to dinner."
