Chapter 132
Having left Shengde Company, Wang Tie asked in a low voice, “Brother Feng, where are we going next? Should we find someone to report Shengde Company?”
“No need, we’ll first head to Nanqiao Commerce to find Feng Ze, President Feng,” Yi Feng said with a smile.
“Feng Ze, what for?” Wang Tie asked in confusion.
“Nanqiao Commerce and Shengde Company are competitors; I believe he would be very happy to see Shengde go out of business, which would mean one less competitor in the electronics industry,” Yi Feng stated confidently.
In the world, there are no eternal friends, only eternal interests. When interests and goals align, they become friends.
To bring down Shengde Company, Yi Feng needed the effort of Nanqiao Commerce.
Wang Tie nodded in realization, “Got it, Brother Feng!”
“I’ll give President Feng a call first, see if he’s in the office. If he is, we’ll buy some gifts before going up.”
Yi Feng took out his phone and dialed Feng Ze.
The phone rang twice before being answered.
“Hello, is this Brother Yi?”
“Haha, yes, President Feng, it’s me,” Yi Feng replied with a laugh.
“Hehe, Brother Yi is calling me, what business do you have for me?”
“Ah, President Feng, you jest, I need your guidance! Actually, I have nothing urgent today, just thought of having a cup of tea with you.”
“Sure, I’m at the office right now. Brother Yi, just come over directly, I’ll prepare some tea in the tea room and wait for you.”
“Great, I’ll be there in about half an hour.”
Yi Feng hung up the phone, turned to Wang Tie with a smile, and said, “Let’s go buy something.”
…
Meanwhile, in Feng Ze’s office, after putting down his phone, he wrapped an arm around Lan Caiyi, who was sitting on his lap, his hands wandering.
“Wait a second… Did Yi Feng just call you?” Lan Caiyi, pressing down his wandering hands, asked with confusion.
“Yes, that was Yi Feng,” Feng Ze said, touching her leg wrapped in black stockings, swallowing a gulp of saliva.
“Did Yi Feng call you for something?” Lan Caiyi asked.
“Hehe, he said he’s coming to have tea,” Feng Ze replied, letting go of her leg, took a pack of cigarettes from the desk, pulled one out, and lit it.
“Nobody visits without a reason; Yi Feng coming to me must have something up his sleeve,” Feng Ze blew a ring of smoke toward Lan Caiyi’s face.
Amidst the smoke, Lan Caiyi’s delicate features gained an added layer of ethereal beauty.
Lan Caiyi waved away the smoke, whispering, “What could he possibly want?”
“Brother Ze, his business has been doing really well lately. Just the parts he purchases from our company net him over half a million in profit a month.”
Feng Ze nodded while smoking, smiling, “Yes, Yi Feng truly is a business genius.”
“Let’s see what he wants when he arrives.”
“It’s also a good opportunity for me to inquire about his interest in the computer chain store business.”
“If he agrees to partner with me, we could open chain stores all over the city. With my supply advantage, our parts would be cheaper than other stores, ensuring we make a killing every day.”
Feng Ze said, his eyes gleaming with a sharp light.
Lan Caiyi covered her mouth, laughing, “Seems like you’ve got quite a plan for him~”
“No, I only have plans for you!” Feng Ze smiled, his hand climbing her body.
Lan Caiyi’s cheeks flushed, she slapped his hand away, bashfully saying, “We’re at the office, stop it, Yi Feng will be here soon.”
Feng Ze then let go, chuckling, “Business first, I’ll deal with you tonight!”
Lan Caiyi got off his lap, straightened her clothes, and pouted, “You’re supposed to go back tonight, right? It’s Monday.”
Feng Ze slapped his forehead, realizing, “Almost forgot today’s Monday, need to spend time with my son.”
Looking up, he saw Lan Caiyi’s face fall and comforted, “No worries, I can spend time with you tomorrow.”
Lan Caiyi managed a smile, calmly asking, “When do you plan to come clean with your family?”
“Ah, let’s talk about that later, these things take time,” Feng Ze stood up, gently hugging her to console.
But Lan Caiyi felt cold inside, hearing almost dismissive and repetitive answers, always promising “later.”
She had grown tired of these evasive responses.
Feng Ze suddenly grabbed her hand, smiling, “Caiyi, just give me a bit more time.”
“Uh-huh…” Lan Caiyi nodded reluctantly.
Satisfied, Feng Ze let go of her hand, straightened his clothes, and said, “I’ll go prepare the tea in the tea room, meanwhile, compile a report on Xifeng Electronics’ purchase summary for me.”
“Okay,” Lan Caiyi responded, watching Feng Ze leave the office, feeling somewhat desolate.
She took a cigarette from the desk, lit it, and leaned against the window, smoking while watching the bustling street outside, her eyes filled with a trace of melancholy and sadness.
…
Yi Feng and Wang Tie arrived at Nanqiao Commerce Company with a box of tea.
“Mr. Yi, President Feng is waiting for you in the tea room. He said you can go directly there when you arrive,” the receptionist with long hair greeted them as she stood up.
“Okay, thank you,” Yi Feng replied warmly, nodding to the receptionist before heading into the company.
Reaching the tea room door, Yi Feng stopped, turned back to Wang Tie, and signaled him to be cautious.
Wang Tie chuckled and nodded in understanding.
Yi Feng knocked on the tea room door, “President Feng.”
“Haha, Brother Yi, come in!”
The door was opened by Lan Caiyi.
“Hello, President Feng, Secretary Lan, good to see you!” Yi Feng greeted warmly, shaking hands with both of them as he entered.
After some pleasantries, they took their seats.
Yi Feng took out a pack of cigarettes, distributing them, even offering one to Lan Caiyi, who accepted without refusing and lit Feng Ze’s cigarette first.
Yi Feng observed this interaction, smiling slightly, noting their relationship was more intimate than that of ordinary lovers.
“Come, Brother Yi, have some tea. Try this high-mountain Pu’er,” Feng Ze warmly invited, pouring tea for Yi Feng and Wang Tie.
“President Feng specially prepared his treasured high-mountain Pu’er for your visit, Brother Yi. This tea is grown in the high mountains of Nanyun Province, with extremely low annual yield. Sometimes, even money can’t buy it,” Lan Caiyi added with a smile.
Her words highlighted Feng Ze’s esteem for Yi Feng.
“Wow, such a treasure, I must savor it,” Yi Feng exclaimed, feigning surprise.
Wang Tie also wanted to taste, remembering Yi Feng’s instructions on tea tasting: first smell, then sip.
“Ah, the fragrance is refreshing, and the taste is rich and mellow. Excellent tea!” Wang Tie praised.
Yi Feng smiled, pleased that Wang Tie had begun to appreciate tea.
“Yes, the tea’s aroma is strong, indeed a fine tea!” Yi Feng also praised.
Feng Ze, sipping his tea quietly, said, “This is indeed a tea I enjoy. If Brother Yi and Brother Wang like it, that’s great.”
He didn’t rush to ask Yi Feng’s purpose, believing Yi Feng would bring it up himself.
After some casual conversation, Yi Feng, seizing an opportunity, casually inquired, “By the way, President Feng, are you familiar with Shengde Company downstairs?”
“Their product range seems quite extensive.”
Feng Ze realized Yi Feng was gauging his attitude; could this be related to Shengde?
“Oh, I know them, what Shengde Company? More like Lack-of-Virtue Company. They’re notorious for distributing counterfeit goods; basically, they refurbish parts and sell them as new. Those products are cheap to source but sold at triple the price,” Feng Ze scoffed, clearly disdainful of Shengde.
Hearing this, Yi Feng saw Feng Ze’s attitude matched his expectations.
As the saying goes, competitors are natural enemies; eliminating one is always beneficial.
“Is that so? They’re really a scourge. Honestly, President Feng, I’m planning to take down Shengde Company,” Yi Feng said, smiling slightly, then briefly explained the situation to him.
After hearing the story, Feng Ze’s face showed “outrage,” declaring righteously, “This is outrageous, to think they’d dare to cross my brother! Brother Yi, rest assured, I’ll support you. Just tell me what to do!”
Yi Feng inwardly laughed, Feng Ze was a sly fox, making it seem like he was doing it for Yi Feng when it was actually in his own interest.
Without Shengde Company, Nanqiao Commerce would capture more market share.
Regardless, on the goal of dismantling Shengde Company, their interests aligned.
After a moment of thought, Yi Feng smiled, “President Feng, after I disrupt Shengde’s current business, I need you to play along in a scheme to trap them even further.”
Feng Ze was inwardly shocked, asking with surprise, “Brother Yi, you can disrupt Shengde’s current business?”
Yi Feng gave a mysterious smile, nodding, but didn’t reveal his methods.
After pondering, Feng Ze tapped the table, inquiring, “Okay, but… what kind of play do you want me to perform?”
Yi Feng moved closer, whispering a few words in Feng Ze’s ear, then smiled and offered him a cigarette.
Feng Ze, thoughtful, nodded, but his gaze toward Yi Feng carried a hint of wariness.
This young man… had a dangerous mind!
