Chapter 82
It seemed like the right moment.
Yi Feng turned to Ning Feipeng with a sigh, “Brother Ning, I plan to open my new store soon, but I don’t have enough capital for stocking up. I can’t even borrow goods to make the place look good.”
“It’s really tough!”
Ning Feipeng, being very loyal, immediately patted his chest upon hearing Yi Feng’s difficulty, especially about not having money to stock up, “Don’t worry, brother. I have goods in my store, and I can lend them to you. Just say the word.”
“Right, my brother Feng is here too, and he’s a major distributor.”
Ning Feipeng turned to Feng Ze, “Brother Feng, Yi Feng is like a younger brother to me, trustworthy. I vouch for him with my reputation. He’s short on cash to stock up now. Could you consider a consignment arrangement, to provide goods for my brother first?”
Feng Ze smiled, having known before coming to drink that this gathering was arranged to ask him to supply goods to Yi Feng.
He didn’t agree immediately because the matter involved risks. He needed to see what kind of person Yi Feng was before deciding whether to help.
However, after drinking together, he had gained a preliminary understanding of Yi Feng.
This young man was not simple!
He was articulate and considerate in his dealings, had a unique and long-term business vision, was humble, and not ostentatious. Such a young person would surely be successful in the future!
Truly a formidable young man!
Therefore, for such an entrepreneurial, promising young man, he was willing to help, considering there might be more opportunities for cooperation in the future.
“Ah, no problem. Yi Feng, whatever computer components you need, just give me a list. I’ll personally arrange for them to be delivered to you, on a consignment basis.”
“If you can’t sell them, no worries, as long as the goods are unopened, you can return them to me,” Feng Ze said with a smile.
Lan Caiyi, covering her mouth with a laugh, said, “It seems General Feng quite appreciates Brother Yi!”
“Helping young people start their business is the right thing to do,” Feng Ze said with a righteous demeanor.
Yi Feng didn’t care whether he genuinely wanted to help. Since he had promised in front of Ning Feipeng, the deal was almost certainly secure.
He quickly stood up to toast Ning Feipeng and Feng Ze, “Then I must thank Brother Ning and President Feng!”
“Don’t mention it,” Feng Ze smiled, his eyes squinting, and clinked glasses.
Cheng Bo also hurriedly raised his glass, “Brother Yi, if you need anything for the opening, just tell us. We’ll definitely help if we can!”
“Exactly, exactly, we’re all one of us, nothing to talk about,” Jiao Tongxing, nearly drunk, slurred his words.
Old Wan watched this scene, dumbfounded.
Damn it, when I asked for help, why did each of you keep silent, making excuses?
Now, this Yi kid asks for help, and you all agree so readily?
Damn! What benefits can this Yi kid offer you?!
Old Wan was fuming inside but did not join in the toasting, drinking sullenly by himself.
Ning Feipeng saw this and snorted.
Such a narrow-minded person!
You only have yourself to blame!
The atmosphere remained lively as everyone toasted.
However, Yi Feng became the center of attention at the table, while Old Wan was marginalized, ignored by everyone.
Another hour passed, drinking until 9 PM before they stopped and chatted without their glasses.
They had been drinking for over three hours.
Old Wan, seeing the drinking winding down, stood up and approached Feng Ze.
“President Feng, I’ll be relying on you in the future!”
“I’m waiting for your good news!”
“This glass is for you!” Old Wan said, downing a glass.
Feng Ze chuckled, “President Wan, you’re too polite.”
Old Wan said, “This meal, I’ll treat you!”
“Waitress!”
The waitress standing by the door came in.
“What can I do for you, sir?”
“How much is the bill for today’s table?”
The waitress took out a notebook and replied, “A total of 2,700 yuan.”
“Alright, I’ll pay. Give me the bill; put it on my account!” Old Wan waved grandly.
However, the expressions on Ning Feipeng, Feng Ze, Lan Caiyi, and Cheng Bo’s faces were off.
Ning Feipeng’s face showed a hint of anger, Feng Ze shook his head with a trace of disdain in his eyes.
Cheng Bo watched coldly, as if watching a monkey perform.
Lan Caiyi whispered, “President Feng, this person is hopeless.”
This dinner was invited by Ning Feipeng, and he actually took it upon himself to pay the bill, in front of so many people, wasn’t this disregarding Ning Feipeng?
And asking the price of the meal in front of so many people, did he think they ate too much? Too expensive?
Old Wan’s act of eagerly offering to pay the bill was a big mistake.
Then, Yi Feng chuckled, “Ah ah, president Wan, never mind, I had Wang Tie settle the bill an hour ago.”
“This meal I owe Brother Ning a favor, this little matter, let’s not trouble Brother Ning.”
Ning Feipeng and others at the table looked surprised.
They hadn’t expected Yi Feng to have settled the bill so early, and his words were very tactful!
Ning Feipeng felt relieved and smiled, “You, you, little brother, you’re really cunning.”
Feng Ze’s eyes showed even more appreciation for Yi Feng.
This young man really knew how to behave and do business!
Old Wan’s face showed astonishment, “You already paid the bill?”
After speaking, his face showed embarrassment.
“Cough cough, then I really let Brother Yi spend money, how about I invite everyone to a sauna next?”
“Let’s all have a bath, get a foot massage, relax a bit, how about it?”
“Men can only have a heart-to-heart talk when they’re bare-chested, eh!” Old Wan suggested.
Feng Ze’s expression cooled, and he waved his hand, “I’ll pass. You guys go if you want, I have things to do later.”
Going to a sauna often implied more than just bathing.
With Lan Caiyi by his side, what was Old Wan thinking saying such nonsense?
Even the fox-like Feng Ze was losing patience with him, showing signs of irritation.
“President Wan, I’ll pass on the sauna. I don’t have that hobby, haha. You go ahead with President Cheng and President Jiao,” Ning Feipeng bluntly refused.
“Ah, hehe, President Wan, I’d love to, but it’s too late now, I have to get home, let’s plan it another day!” Cheng Bo found an excuse to leave.
Jiao Tongxing, also uninterested in the sauna, stood up to leave, though he was staggering.
Old Wan was left awkwardly standing there, looking foolish.
He hadn’t expected these people to not enjoy going to a sauna.
Then, Yi Feng stood up and said to Wang Tie, “Wang Tie, first take brother Cheng and brother Jiao downstairs to the car, tell the driver to be careful on the way.”
“Sure thing, Brother Feng!” Wang Tie stood up, nodding, and helped Jiao Tongxing downstairs.
Afterward, Yi Feng turned to Ning Feipeng and Feng Ze, “Before coming here, I had Wang Tie book a tea room nearby. President Feng, Brother Ning, how about we go have some tea and rest?”
“This suggestion sounds good, drinking tea can also help sober up.”
Ning Feipeng, who loved tea, became interested upon hearing about the tea room.
Feng Ze smiled slightly, “Alright, then let’s go have tea.”
He glanced at Old Wan, still awkwardly standing there, with a look of disdain in his eyes.
Old Wan, you really can’t even compare to a young man!
Have you really lived your years in vain?
The group began to gather their things to leave.
Yi Feng casually asked, “President Wan, coming?”
Old Wan, suppressing his anger, coldly replied, “You guys go ahead, I won’t join.”
“Oh.”
Yi Feng grinned and then turned to leave.
Old Wan coldly watched Yi Feng’s departing back, fury rising in his heart.
What’s so great about this kid?
Damn, he really stole the spotlight today!
