Chapter 116: Business tactics, don't criticize



Within a few days, rumors spread throughout the jade market that Wu Zheng's jade was fake.

Customers who did not know the truth began to doubt some of the stores that purchased goods from Wu Zheng. They stood there and did not dare to go in to buy. They also chirped everywhere, saying that the goods in such and such store were fakes that came from such and such place, and they just refused to go in to buy anything.

Everyone knew that the shops that suffered all purchased their goods from Wu Zheng, and the merchants that still purchased their goods from Shen Lingfeng were not affected at all.

Shen Lingfeng was almost about to say that he did it.

Business means, don't criticize others.

He even asked his men to cause trouble at Wu Zheng's store from time to time. They would come to the store in a fake manner to cause trouble, shouting in the store that they had bought fake goods, questioning the quality of the jade, and pushing the clerks and making excuses.

For a time, several shops on Jade Street switched back to purchasing goods from Shen Lingfeng.

In order to dispel the rumors, Wu Zheng directly booked a big hotel and held a large-scale jade appreciation meeting, inviting some well-known treasure appraisal experts and collectors to participate and let them identify and evaluate his jade.

These collectors are not easily invited by ordinary people, so many merchants went to the appreciation meeting even though they knew they could not purchase goods from them, hoping to make friends with the masters.

On the day of the appreciation meeting, the venue was crowded and bustling. Wu Zheng stood on the stage, confidently introducing his jade.

"Dear guests, today we hold this appreciation meeting to let you witness the quality of our jade with your own eyes. Our jade has been strictly selected and identified, and it is definitely not fake."

The treasure appraisal experts carefully observed the jade and nodded in praise.

They spoke highly of Wu Zheng's jade, believing that it was first-class in both quality and craftsmanship.

With the successful holding of the appreciation meeting, the rumors were dispelled, the competition between the two sides became more and more fierce, and Shen Lingfeng gradually fell into madness.

He colluded with some unscrupulous merchants, deliberately lowered the price of jade, tried to disrupt the market order, and even used his overseas connections to put pressure on Wu Zheng's suppliers to stop supplying Wu Zheng.

Despite facing tremendous pressure, Wu Zheng still offered a more favorable price for the jade.

The price at this point has reached a point where it is completely unprofitable, and they are even holding events to attract customers.

Even Shen Rongrong was picked up at night several times to see the mine, giving Wu Zheng an advantage in the price war.

This fight lasts for another week.

Shen Rongrong has exceeded the number of days she promised to Shen Lingfeng.

Shen Lingfeng was a bit preoccupied with his own affairs and didn't have time to ask her, but that doesn't mean he didn't ask.

So, one day, Wu Zheng saw Shen Lingfeng at the gate of the community. Not only did he not hide, he drove over to him with a mocking smile on his face: "Hey, isn't this Boss Shen? What brings you here?"

Shen Lingfeng stood there with a gloomy face: "It's Wu Zheng, I came to see Rongrong."

Wu Zheng laughed: "Rongrong, what is your relationship with Rongrong? Are you just looking at Rongrong?"

Shen Lingfeng also laughed: "Can't I watch it if there is no relationship? She promised me something, and now the time is up. I am waiting to ask her when to help me fulfill it."

Wu Zheng hummed nonchalantly: "Okay, then you wait, just take your time."

The good thing about military dormitories is that strangers with fierce looks will definitely not be allowed in.

As long as Rongrong doesn't come out, there will be no safety issues.

After saying that, he smiled and drove away, leaving Shen Lingfeng waiting there.

In the blink of an eye, another week has passed.

The two companies have been fighting to the point of almost vomiting blood and are both losing money.

Shen Lingfeng didn't know where Wu Zheng got his family background to compete with his own time-honored brand that had been entrenched in the border jade industry for decades. He had sent people to their hometown countless times to check what Wu Zheng's background was, but nothing was found.

All we know is that he is a well-known local scoundrel and his family has a political background.

Shen Lingfeng looked at his file and laughed: "No wonder he has been able to work with me for such a long time. He went through so much trouble for a woman. I really have to suspect that Shen Rongrong is actually his woman secretly, and Chen Yu is just a cover."

The younger brothers also echoed: "Our spies also saw Wu Zheng secretly coaxing Shen Rongrong several times. It seems that the two of them are indeed having an affair."

And along with the investigation came another piece of good news.

The younger brother said mysteriously, "We heard that Wu Zheng bought a mine abroad and put all his property on it. A transport team brought back more than a dozen vehicles from abroad. Who do you think was the one escorting the vehicles?"

"Is it his mother?"

"He cares more than his mother does." The younger brother chuckled, leaned close to his elder brother's ear, and said three words with a smile: "Shen, Rong, Rong."

"How is that possible?" Shen Lingfeng quickly looked down at the report given by his younger brothers: "Did you take any photos?"

"I took a picture." The younger brother pointed to a Polaroid photo of a woman standing next to a mine pit. "Although it's not very clear, it was when you asked us to investigate whether Shen Rongrong was staying at home properly as a pregnant woman. We found out that Wu Zheng would pick her up every night... This time, he took her out of the country for three days. I couldn't take a clear picture because we were far away, but this woman is pregnant. Look at her belly, it's her."

After hearing the news, several brothers in the room started talking again.

"He is so bold. She is a pregnant woman with three children. How can an ordinary man feel safe if he takes her abroad?"

"Could it be that this is really his child? Is that Chen guy just a trick?"

"This woman is really not simple..."

"The one who is really extraordinary is this Wu Zheng. His family background is kept secret so well that even his wife has to find a fake husband to cover up for him..."

Hearing his brothers say this, Shen Lingfeng smiled very happily: "Good. Very good."

Wu Zheng's family background is totally unimportant to him.

But this time he bet all his property on a mine, which is really great news!

Not to mention that this is an overseas route. Shen Lingfeng has been running around the border for many years and knows very well that if anything happens abroad, the laws of his own country will not be able to protect him at all.

What's more, he brought Shen Rongrong with him!

What a great opportunity to kill two birds with one stone.

"Go, arrange more people, and intercept his convoy." Shen Lingfeng smiled and stretched out his hand to point at a point on the map route: "It's right here. Disguise as international robbers, rob his car and goods, and take the women away as well!"
