Volume 1: Dragon in the River and Lake Chapter 45: Giving Up One's Seat on a Public Bus

  The second floor is also a large hall similar to the first floor, but there's nothing much inside, only a few office desks and chairs. Against the wall, some old and worn-out billiard tables and tablecloths are stacked up.

  A thick layer of dust on the ground, stepping on it can carve out the texture of shoe soles.

  Although there is a five-seat leather sofa, it is covered with dust. If you wipe your hand on it, a thick layer of gray will appear on your hand.

  Several people did not sit down but stood talking.

  Ye Shao Feng and the other two were tall and sturdy, standing in front of the boss, completely towering over him by half a head, very imposing. However, they were particularly useless, they came to ask for prices, not to fight.

  "You're still so young, how much money do you have? You're not here to cause trouble and look for fun, are you?" The boss asked, raising his head.

  "You name a price, we'll think about it together, don't worry, I won't be stingy!" Peng Xiaofei said like a boss.

  When Peng Xiaofei was pretending to be the "boss", Ye Shaofeng and Wang Zheng almost called him "General Manager Peng" behind his back, but wearing a security uniform on his body betrayed his identity, even if he were called "Chairman Peng", no one would believe it.

  "You two are security guards, right? Security guards only make a few hundred dollars a month. Look at this ballroom of mine, downstairs there are ten pool tables, each one worth 10,000..." The boss said up to here, Wang Zheng suddenly laughed.

  Wang Zheng leaned forward, patted the boss's shoulder and said: "I'm telling you, boss, can't we be a bit more honest in business? We've played pool for years, and on the pool table, it all adds up to just a few bucks. I checked when I came in, your pool tables are the cheapest quality, one table is no more than 2,500 yuan!"

  Wang Zheng finished speaking, and Ye Shaofeng, Peng Xiaofei, and the boss all froze at the same time.

  Ye Shaofeng and Peng Xiaofei were stunned, thinking that Wang Zheng was too good at deceiving people, and pretending to be an expert.

  However, the boss was stunned, completely because he found that the curly-haired fat man in front of him actually knew what he was talking about! The price he quoted was exactly the same as the one he had just bought it for, not a single cent different!

  Wang Zheng indeed knows the ropes, don't forget that he used to be one of the Four Young Masters of the Capital, what hasn't he experienced? Big or small matters, as long as it's related to having fun, this kid is an expert, in the past he didn't play around less, it's just now, he doesn't have the energy and money for him to squander.

  Wang Zheng saw that his boss was shocked and continued to say: "This table, including depreciation, we can give you at most 1,800 yuan per table!"

  Peng Xiaofei thought to himself: Damn it, this kid is really good at bargaining, from 10,000 down to 1,800 in one go.

  At that time, the boss was shocked again. Because 1,800 was the lowest price he could bear to sell, and this kid actually said it accurately.

  This kid can see through people's hearts or something, how others think, he can all of a sudden figure it out and understand clearly!

  Wang Zheng laughed, with an air of playing with the world without reverence.

  Young Master Wang rubbed his sleeves and said in a majestic tone: "You this shop, all count on it, give you this number." As he spoke, Wang Zheng stretched out his five thick fingers.

  "50,000?" The boss asked with a frown.

  Wang Zheng nodded.

  "Brother, you... this is too... too unreasonable! This store of mine is worth at least 100,000 yuan, and you're asking me to sell it for half the price? Although these few tables aren't worth much, I definitely won't sell them for 50,000 yuan!"

  "That's one hundred thousand!" Ye Shaofeng said suddenly.

  Others always bargain downwards, but Ye Shaofeng is different, he comes and raises the price for others, and suddenly increases it by nearly twice.

  Peng Xiaofei gave Ye Shaofeng a look, his eyes seeming to say: Brother Feng, are you crazy?! Wang Zheng had just managed to negotiate the price down to 50,000, and now you're suddenly raising it to 100,000! Have you gone mad?!

  The boss's face lit up with joy and said: "Actually, 100,000 yuan is still a small amount, but as long as you can give me the full cash, I can immediately sell the store to you."

  "Of course, we'll give you the full amount in cash. We'll bring the money over tomorrow. By the way, don't take away any of your things here, we want everything. And as for the employees at Silver Stage and in the hall, we're keeping them all too, so don't drive them away." Ye Shaofeng said. This tone was that of a wealthy and powerful boss.

  Three people walked out of the billiard hall, and it was somewhat overcast outside. Luoyang City is like this, as soon as autumn arrives, the weather starts to get messy, and it's not bad if there are two or three sunny days in a week.

  Under the overcast sky, the streets are crowded with cars, and it's now rush hour, so the wide east-west road at the entrance of No. 8 Middle School is already congested with cars, one after another, forming a long dragon, while bicycles nimbly weave through the traffic on the non-motorized vehicle lane beside it.

  Three people walking on the sidewalk, smoking, two yuan Red Plum cigarettes.

  "Maple brother, I think this store can be settled for 700,000 to 800,000 yuan, why did you quote him one million yuan at once?" Wang Zheng said while smoking.

  "Seven or eight hundred thousand is just for buying him a storefront and several old pool tables, that's not worth it. I'm offering one million, which includes everything, and he'll also have to go through the process of changing the business license, and he'll have to pay for all the fees associated with that procedure. One million yuan, it's worth it."

  "I have 30,000 yuan here, which I've been saving for several years," said Peng Xiaofei.

  "I have 20,000 here," said Wang Zheng.

  After finishing, the two turned their heads to look at Ye Shaofeng. There was still a shortage of 50,000 yuan, which was not a small amount, and it had been promised to be given to someone tomorrow. Now, where could this 50,000 come from? They could only rely on Ye Shaofeng.

  "You can keep your three or four hundred thousand for yourself, I'll go get this one million." Ye Shaofeng said calmly.

  "What are you going to do with 100,000? Where did you go at night? You'd better not borrow usury or rob, we don't do illegal things." Peng Xiaofei said.

  "Don't worry, even if you let me do something illegal, I won't do it. You two take care, tomorrow at 9 am, we'll meet at the entrance of this billiard hall." After finishing speaking, Ye Shaofeng ran to a bus stop. Coincidentally, there was a bus stopped there, Ye Shaofeng got on the bus and waved goodbye to Peng Xiaofei and Wang Zheng.

  Find a vacant seat and sit down. Just as I sat down, I saw a young mother holding her child also squeezing onto the bus.

  Ye Shao Feng saw that this young mother was standing and looked tired, with a one-year-old child in her arms.

  Hurry up and stand up, gave the young mother a look, meaning to let her sit down. But just as Ye Shao Feng had just stood up, the mother holding the child walked over, just about to say "thank you".

  A burly middle-aged man next to him took advantage of the opportunity, relying on his own strength and physique, stepped forward, squeezed past the young mother's side, and sat down firmly in the seat that Ye Shaofeng had just vacated...
