Li Xiyue immediately recognized it as a scar left by smallpox.
Master Ma, whose real name is unknown.
He was Lu Feng's most capable subordinate.
After confirming that the other party was indeed Li Shadan, whom they had been searching for, Ma Zi's pockmarked face broke into a smile. "Oh, what wind blew Boss Li here? What a rare guest!"
"Master Ma, right? I heard you want to discuss a big business deal with me?" Li Xiyue crossed her legs and glanced at him sideways.
“Yes.” Pockmarked man sat down and handed over a Daqianmen cigarette. “May I ask, Mr. Li, weren’t you doing business with Qian San’er in Hunan Province before? What brings you to Beijing?”
Li Xiyue took the cigarette, sniffed it, refused Ma Zi's offer to light it for her, tucked the cigarette behind her ear, and said angrily, "That Chen Xiong, he wanted to double-cross me, he was looking for me everywhere, and I didn't dare to stay in Hunan Province anymore, so I had to find another way out."
Ma Zi had no choice but to blow out the match. Just as he was about to speak, he heard him ask another question.
"You're not planning to double-cross me too, are you?"
Ma Zi smiled and shook his head, "No, no, the black market has a new boss now, and there will be no more double-crossing. Boss Li can rest assured about that."
"I came to Beijing and observed for a long time. I found that the black market has changed a lot, so I dared to show my face."
Ma Zi asked with a smile, "I wonder how much stock Mr. Li has on hand, and at what price?"
"I can ship twice a month. Each time I can ship up to 1,000 jin of grain, 500 jin of meat and eggs, and 500 jin of vegetables and fruits."
Ma Zi exclaimed in surprise, "A thousand catties at a time, two times would be two thousand catties..."
"As for the price, it should be 10% higher than the price Qian San'er offered."
Ma Zi was startled again, "Qian San'er's price is already very high, another 10% higher..."
“If you can’t make the decision, call someone who can to come and talk to me,” Li Xiyue said, shaking her leg and glancing at him sideways.
Ma Zi hesitated for a moment, then stood up. "Please wait a moment, Mr. Li."
"You mean Li Shadan has appeared?" Lu Feng was looking at the ledger under the lamp. Hearing this, he put down the ledger and looked up.
Ma Zi nodded. "He said that he could produce a maximum of two thousand catties of grain, one thousand catties of meat, eggs, vegetables and fruits a month, but the price would be ten percent higher than the price he paid to Qian San'er. I didn't dare to make the decision, so I came to ask Master Lu for instructions."
Lu Feng thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "Let's go and meet him."
When the upright and honest man entered the house, Li Xiyue was already dozing off. Hearing footsteps, he opened his eyes, yawned, and said, "Finally, you're here. If you hadn't come, I would have gone home to sleep."
“You won’t.” Lu Feng walked over and sat down next to him, crossed his legs, folded his hands on his knees, and smiled broadly.
"How so?"
Li Xiyue couldn't help but feel that he had an extraordinary demeanor. Such a person didn't seem like someone who was involved in the black market; he should be living a respectable and honorable life in the sunlight.
Lu Feng looked at him. "You came here for me, didn't you?"
"Master Lu is indeed clever. I like dealing with smart people." Li Xiyue was definitely there for him.
There's no reason to waste time with low-level thugs when there's a black market boss right under our noses.
Besides, she thought Lu Feng was a good person and quite reliable.
Lu Feng chuckled, "Mr. Li is quite an extraordinary person. It is my good fortune to be able to cooperate with him."
"The price?"
"Let's trade at the price Mr. Li offered."
Li Xiyue smiled, "Mr. Lu is so straightforward. Then, let's have a pleasant collaboration from now on?"
"It's a pleasure to cooperate with you." Lu Feng extended his hand politely.
Li Xiyue shook hands with him, stood up, and said, "Mr. Lu, let's set a transaction location. I will supply goods once at the beginning and middle of each month."
Lu Feng thought for a moment and then suggested a place.
Even after everyone had left for a while, Lu Feng still hadn't come to his senses.
Ma Zi walked over and asked, "Master Lu, is there a problem?"
Lu Feng said, "I just feel like his smile reminds me of someone I know." But he quickly shook his head in denial, "It can't be hers."
