Cheng Fangyi strolled around the courtyard with great interest.
I was inadvertently attracted by the plum blossoms in the corner and asked, "Who planted these plum blossoms?"
The steward immediately stepped forward to explain, "This was planted by my master. He said that plum blossoms symbolize strength, good fortune and happiness, and they are perfect for him."
What a coincidence, this was the first black market Guizi was responsible for after coming to Bac Ninh.
At the beginning, most people in the black market did not obey him and regarded him, the second-in-command, as air.
The feeling of being ignored cast a shadow over Guizi's heart.
He secretly vowed that he must make a name for himself.
Just like the plum blossoms, although the bare branches are inconspicuous, when the fragrance of the plum blossoms fills the air, everyone will admire them.
For a long time thereafter, he bided his time and waited for the opportunity.
Cheng Fangyi had a faint smile on his face, but it was also hard to understand.
The housekeeper thought Cheng Fangyi agreed with him and said with a smile, "I feel like you and my master are of the same kind. We should get along well. It's a pity he's not in Beining recently. Otherwise, with such a large order like yours, it wouldn't be a bad idea for him to meet with my master."
Your son is not in Beining!
Cheng Fangyi raised his eyebrows slightly.
Then where will he go?
But - who is the same kind of person as him!
Even if Cheng Fangyi died of poverty, he would never do such things that go against the principles of nature.
"It doesn't matter. I will stay in Beining for another day. Maybe your master will be back by then." Cheng Fangyi said.
it's a pity.
It would be great if I could meet Guizi. With the cheats he and Su Qing have, it would be no problem to tie someone up easily.
The steward smacked his lips and replied, "That's not necessarily true. Next time, when you come to Beining, I'll take you to see my master."
"But I may not come to Beining next time. I heard that this kind of thing is sold in nearby provinces and cities. I can go to any of them. Why go far away?" Cheng Fangyi said lightly and waited for the manager to reply.
The steward laughed a few times in disdain.
"Sir, you're an outsider here. It's true you can get goods from other places, but it's definitely not as safe as getting them from Beining. You have to understand, we have protection from our superiors." The steward saluted, indicating that his backers were the same people who took the wood warehouse. "Just like now, I can open the gates and do business with you, but can I do that elsewhere?"
There was a hint of pride in the steward's tone.
Profits and risks coexist.
He certainly didn't earn as much in Bac Ninh City as the young people who were running around outside taking orders.
But it is safer.
He has a lot of protective umbrellas behind him, and no one dares to arrest him even if he stands at the gate of the unit to trade. When officials get addicted, they have to ask him for goods.
"Oh—" Cheng Fangyi laughed, "Is your master so capable? He can walk all over Beining! Just because of what you said, I plan to buy another 200,000 worth of goods, but I have a condition. I want to trade with your master. I wonder if the manager can pass on the message for me."
Two hundred thousand!
The steward was so excited that he almost fainted.
He only managed to keep his balance with the help of the chair.
"I need to tell my master about this. If he wasn't in Beining, I would call him over right now. Sir, how about this? You sit for a while. I'll make a phone call and ask about my master's return date. If it's within these few days, please wait a moment. Is that okay with you?" said the steward.
There was uncontrollable excitement in his tone.
"I can consider it, but it's better if you give me definite news now. I don't have so much time to waste on this." Cheng Fangyi broke off the half-opened plum bud, held it in his hand, and crushed it to pieces.
The manager immediately bowed and nodded, "Okay, okay, sir, wait for me, I'll make the call now."
As he said this, the manager walked into the house.
Su Qing was curious and wanted to follow, but was stopped by the people at the door.
"Brother, please stay. No one is allowed in."
Su Qing glared at him angrily, "If you don't want to let me in, then don't let me in. Who cares?"
As he spoke, Su Qing had already taken a general look at the situation in the house.
There must be another room behind the main hall, because she saw with her own eyes that the manager disappeared after turning into the main hall.
After a while, the steward came in excitedly to report the news, "Master, my master will be back the day after tomorrow and will meet you the day after tomorrow. Do you think it would be convenient for you to stay in Beining for two or three more days?"
Cheng Fangyi was a little bit unbelievable that he replied so quickly!
Is this really a call to Takako?
"Two or three days? What? Your master's time is precious, but mine is useless. Do you know how much I earn every minute? Even if I sell all your goods, I can't make up for the loss of two or three days." Cheng Fangyi looked at the manager like a fool. "Just wait a day. If you don't agree, forget it. I've done a lot of one-time deals. At worst, I can just find a new seller."
As he spoke, Cheng Fangyi looked at his watch again.
The manager suddenly became nervous.
Because more than twenty minutes have passed and the person who was sent out has not received any news.
"Master, it's no use just waiting like this. How about I take you somewhere else to have a look?"
Cheng Fangyi pretended to be very embarrassed and agreed, "Okay, I am sincere in cooperating with you and want to develop into a long-term partnership. Otherwise, who would be willing to waste time hanging out with you." After saying that, Cheng Fangyi stood up.
Su Qing closed the box filled with coins, held it in his hand, and said jokingly, "Boss, if I take it out like this, I hope it won't be robbed."
The courtyard wall was very low, and when Su Qing showed the money, many people saw it.
Su Qing was worried that those drug addicts who had lost their minds would rush forward and fight for it regardless of the consequences.
The steward laughed out loud when he heard this. "Little brother, you're worrying too much. No one has the guts to steal my things in my territory. How about this, Haozi? Send a few brothers to protect me and don't let any ignorant people mess with me. Little brother, do you think this arrangement is satisfactory?"
"It's up to you. Although I hold this money, it won't be long before it goes into your pockets. If you don't protect it properly, you'll still be the ones who suffer the loss." Su Qing walked in front with an indifferent look, "What are you standing there for? Lead the way."
Along the way, Su Qing was always at Cheng Fangyi's beck and call, which gave Cheng Fangyi goosebumps. It seemed that he was not born to enjoy a good life.
Just when Cheng Fangyi wanted to quietly remind Su Qing not to be such a lackey, the manager stopped.
"Master, there are new goods in there, do you want to take a look?"
Cheng Fangyi stopped and looked at the high walls and courtyard in front of him. He couldn't help but frown. Could it be that he wanted to lock them up and then rob them of their money?
"You even dare to sell this thing openly, what else do you need to hide so secretly?" Su Qing stood in front of Cheng Fangyi, "Don't try to kill us first and then rob us, leaving us with no way back."
The manager is ashamed!
This little brother is really smart.
