Ma Yunfei saw Du Fei off at the long-distance bus station, saying with reluctance, "Brother, we both have the character 'Fei' in our names, this is fate."
"Yes, brother, we really are destined to meet. I'll be waiting for you in B City. Give me a call when you come. I'll pay as soon as the yams arrive."
"Brother, until we meet again."
The long-distance bus arrived, and Du Fei boarded. He glanced back at Qinglong Town and sighed, "I never thought I'd fall for this!"
"Goodbye, big brother!"
The long-distance bus drove away, kicking up clouds of dust behind it.
Ma Yunfei sighed and said, "Brother, we both have the character 'Fei' in our names. No matter what, we were family three hundred years ago. How can you steal my business? That's unreasonable."
Three days later, Ma Yunfei and the abbot escorted three trucks, delivering 100,000 jin of yams to City B.
Du Fei readily agreed, deducting the money he earned from selling 30,000 jin of yams to Ma Yunfei and transferring 10,080 yuan into Ma Yunfei's bank account.
Ma Yunfei earned a total of 80,000 yuan on this trip. He paid the grain depot director and the transportation team leader 200 yuan each, and gave the abbot 5,000 yuan.
The abbot, clutching a thick wad of cash, was moved to tears. He said emotionally, "Boss, if it weren't for you, I'd still be toiling in the fields, barely scraping by. I wouldn't have earned this much money in ten years. Boss, I'm sticking with you."
"Abbot, work hard for me, and I won't treat you unfairly. Right now, my business is just starting out, so I can only give you this much money. However, I believe that when I become very successful, you will also become quite successful."
"Boss, I've made a fortune. I'm very satisfied with how much money I've earned."
This year is a low year for yams, with low yields. I've heard that some exporters have opened up international markets and are continuously sending Chinese yams abroad.
As a result, yams became scarce in the country, and their prices kept rising.
This time, Du Fei came to Qinglong Town to steal business, but thanks to the young widow who set a trap for him, he drove away his competitor.
As soon as Ma Yunfei returned from B City, he went to Baixing Restaurant in high spirits.
"Sister Meng, tonight, cook a few dishes and let's have a good drink. It's been a long time since I've relaxed like this. I want to let loose a bit."
Since the establishment of the yam sales station, Ma Yunfei has been on tenterhooks. This is his first time doing business, and he can only succeed; failure is not an option.
He has now expanded his sales channels to two cities, A and B, and is quite familiar with the yam business.
"Young man, it's rare that you're in such a good mood. I'll go cook a few dishes and bring them to my bedroom. Let's drink until we're completely drunk."
"Sister Meng, I can't get drunk. I still have to ride my motorcycle home tonight."
"Young man, if you're drunk, don't go back. I have guest rooms here."
"Sister Meng, that won't do. If I don't come home at night, my wife will suspect that I've relapsed and gone gambling. She'll be very sad and probably won't be able to sleep all night."
“Little brother, Chen Yuyan is so lucky to have married such an ambitious man like you. It’s a pity that I don’t have such good fortune. I married a sickly man, and he passed away less than a year after we got married, leaving me all alone to live a lonely life.”
After the young widow finished speaking, she went to the kitchen.
Half an hour later, she brought over six dishes and a bottle of wine on a tray.
The young widow's bedroom was decorated elegantly, with a light green sheet on the bed and a vase of wildflowers in the bedside table.
The young widow pulled out a folding table, set out the food, and said, "Little brother, I specially cooked a few of my signature dishes."
"Sister Meng, your boudoir is so elegant. If someone didn't know better, they would really think they had walked into the bedroom of a young virgin."
The young widow pursed her lips and said, "Young man, I've already told you that although I've been married before, I'm still a virgin."
"Oh, Sister Meng, I'm so sorry, I misspoke."
“Little brother, I know you won’t believe me. That’s understandable. How could a woman who has slept in the same bed with a man for a year still be a virgin? I think 100% of people would think that.”
"Sister Meng, I believe you. I think you will definitely find a man who satisfies you and start a new and happy life."
"Sigh! Maybe in the next life."
The young widow opened the wine bottle, poured two glasses, and said, "Young man, I congratulate you on the successful launch of your yam sales station. You've already made several trips and earned your first pot of gold. This is a good start."
"Thank you, Sister Meng!"
"Little brother, my uncle called me yesterday and said you didn't go to City A. Did you not sell the yams to my uncle this time?"
"Sister Meng, I'm really sorry. Perhaps I've become a true businessman. Businessmen only care about money, not people. To be honest, the price of yams in City B is one cent higher than in City A, so I transported the yams to City B."
"Young man, did you sell the yams to that man named Du Fei?"
"Yes, we've become friends. As the saying goes, 'Having more friends means having more options.'"
"Little brother, you're really something. You were mortal enemies, but you've become friends. It seems you're no ordinary person. I admire you."
"Sister Meng, thanks to you this time, you drove Du Fei away. Otherwise, it would have been very difficult for me to compete with him. That guy is cunning and has a lot of business experience. If I had fought him to the death, I would probably have been the one who suffered."
"Little brother, I'd do anything for you."
"Sister Meng, I'm truly impressed. You actually set a trap for Du Fei, and he still doesn't know that you are the mastermind."
"Hehe... That streetwalker is an old acquaintance of mine. She's a pitiful person too. She's willing to lose her dignity for my fifty dollars. But dignity is not as important as a full stomach. Not having enough to eat can be fatal, but you can still survive without dignity."
Ma Yunfei sighed repeatedly and said, "Yes, Sister Meng's words are very insightful. To survive, one can't care about saving face."
Sister Meng drank one cup after another until her face turned red and she could no longer speak coherently.
"Little...little brother, it's a pity I met you too late, and I...I shouldn't have been born two years too early, otherwise, if I had become your wife, I would have been happy for the rest of my life."
Ma Yunfei is most afraid of women talking about feelings with him because he is already a married man, and moreover, he deeply loves Chen Yuyan.
Ma Yunfei was a gentleman in his previous life, and even after being reborn into this body, he still couldn't change his gentlemanly nature.
"Sister Meng, you will always be my good sister. I will stay by your side, protect you, and cherish you."
