Chapter 2094: Chapter 975: Lacking Confidence (Part 2)
Speaking of business, ng Si’an got serious and furrowed his brows for a mont, “I actually know soone over there, but I’m too lazy to handle a restaurant so far away. How about I ask my friend if they’re interested? You na your price, and I’ll talk to him? Don’t worry about my connections; we’re just acquaintances.”
Old Chen casually suggested a price, “I bought the restaurant’s property too. How about we combine it for three million?”
ng Si’an frowned, “I told you not to worry about giving face; won’t you lose at three million?”
“I won’t lose; I didn’t invest that much,” Old Chen replied with a laugh. “Besides, I’ve already earned it all back over the years, so any sale at this point is profit.”
“Are you stupid!” ng Si’an looked frustrated, “You think it’s only worth three million? Have you considered you have Brother Fei as your supplier? Do you know how many people are trying to find a way to get top-quality beef from Brother Fei to open high-end restaurants? That’s why the Morning Glory beef restaurant isn’t everywhere because the supply is limited!”
“Don’t exaggerate, but just for your source, you could easily ask for another two to three million, and soone would still be willing.”
Old Chen thought it over and glanced at Yan Fei.
Yan Fei glared, “Why are you looking at ? Do whatever you like; do you still want to manage ? My old rule still stands: old custors opening new stores, as long as it’s not tens of stores at once, can get supplies as much as possible. New custors that we can’t manage, we won’t take on. Xiaohei… Manager Zhang knows all about it, do I need to say more?”
“Listen to that!” ng Si’an got excited. “With that, you could set the price at five million, and you’d likely have plenty of interested buyers. How about this, leave it be, and I’ll let them set their own price. If it suits, you can just go over and sign the contract.”
“Alright then, thanks, Brother ng!” Old Chen accepted the advice willingly. “I’ll give you a ten percent cut for your troubles…”
“Don’t give that, do you think I need your money?” ng Si’an looked contemptuous. “That ten percent is as good as buying the saddle pad you gave yesterday!”
Old Chen imdiately understood and glanced at Yan Fei, chuckling without saying a word.
Ten percent is a few hundred thousand, enough to buy an apartnt in most cities. To outsiders, one offering and the other refusing might seem foolish. However, these are both young individuals with bright futures, and with Yan Fei in the picture, that money truly doesn’t matter.
Once these two stopped talking, Yan Fei spoke up, “Let’s talk about those patented dications later! I’m too busy right now, aren’t I supposed to go back with you in a few days? I can’t be in two places at once. If you want to get involved in patents, it’s actually better to run your own business well. When the business grows, hire more employees and pay more wages, and that’s it.”
“Nobody can do everything. Let’s discuss it when there’s more ti!”
ng Si’an nodded, “You’re right. Most places aren’t well-off yet; you’ve got to eat and drink well first before considering anything else. But I still think a pharmaceutical factory is good, at least it employs more workers…”
After saying a few more things, he didn’t speak further.
It’s still up to Yan Fei whether he’s willing to do it or not. Anyway, ng Si’an feels that if Yan Fei were to handle these matters, he’d definitely have it sorted.
Even though ng Si’an himself couldn’t say how Yan Fei would manage it, he just felt it would work; otherwise, he wouldn’t keep nagging Yan Fei about this issue.
…
The next day, the Nature Conservation Association and the Animal Association sent people over to inspect the small coal mine where the marsupial mouse was discovered. These matters didn’t require worry from the ranch people, nor did they need much cooperation.
anwhile, ng Si’an was waiting, lingering, and pestering Yan Fei. After waiting two or three days, he had yet to hear Yan Fei say to leave, but instead heard about Amora City’s new population managent regulations.
The new regulations are in trial, allowing outsiders planning to stay over six months to apply for a temporary driver’s license.
In addition, similar to what Daniel ntioned, security companies can temporarily register weapons for these outsiders.
Essentially, that’s the gist of it, and there are still restrictions. However, for the Cow flower company people, they all t the qualifications.
So in half a day, over a hundred workers who ca from ho applied for temporary driving licenses, and under the Cow flower company, they established a Cow flower Security Company.
These tasks were all managed by Daniel the lawyer, needing no attention from Yan Fei.
And by this ti, the new batch of cattle was not yet ready for market.
We’d say the small town processes things efficiently, and even Yan Fei felt a bit indebted due to this efficiency.
…
ng Si’an watched Old Chen and Xiaohei bustling around; even Du Minghui was almost too busy to take care of her kids. He felt he couldn’t keep urging Yan Fei.
But Brother Fei was as dependable as ever, waving a hand: “Once these matters are settled in a couple of days, we’ll head ho. Let’s not wait for that auction, and we need to give Heizi and the others so pressure. Otherwise, if everything relies on , I’d be exhausted!”
ng Si’an felt for Heizi and Old Chen, “Boss Yan, how exactly are you exhausted? If you hadn’t been taking out for fun these days, you’d probably be basking in the sun watching your wife, right?”
Ten or so ranches to oversee, and you keep pushing them to contact and acquire surrounding ranches. Even if they go out, they constantly handle phone calls, truly not having a mont’s rest.
But these were thoughts ng Si’an kept to himself; he was never going to voice them.
It’s like throwing a friend under the bus; his own responsibilities an if Yan Fei doesn’t return, he can’t either. It wasn’t just fear of failing reports but fear if he left early, Yan Boss would keep postponing the trip back.
If it really ca to that, he might have to make another trip.
So he decided to shalessly stick around and wait.
However, with everything at this point, when Yan Fei suggested going out for fun again, ng Si’an was dead set against it—who has no sha? He truly felt awkward asking soone busy to waste ti playing with him.
Good relations aside, that’s not how things get done. Precisely because of the good relations, he’s more at ease on the ranch than at ho, so why go out?
So moving forward, ng Si’an settled into life on the ranch, riding horses, falconry, dog training, and shooting, living leisurely and happily.
…
But Brother Fei was indeed dependable, and he quickly suggested even more thrilling plans: “Old ng, feeling free, let’s go weapon shopping! I’ll make you an advisor, and in the weapon store, play around, regardless of whether you have a permit or not, play freely!”
ng Si’an was so excited he was speechless: “Fei Fei Fei Brother Fei, are you serious? Let’s go, let’s go…”
Just thinking about it was exciting!
Not that he hadn’t been to a weapon store before; he’d been abroad, and he’d seen things. But now it’s different because Boss Yan was going to place a big order, and with a security company, they could legally hold a certain amount of weapons.
Since they were placing a big order, it’s imaginable that he could play freely, and the thought was tempting.
Indeed, for ng Si’an, that day, though his arms and shoulders ached sorely, his heart was filled with imnse satisfaction. Just from that day’s experience, it was enough bragging rights for hunting season, all the way past New Year’s next year.
Who usually gets such an opportunity, pulling out any weapon from a few warehouses, freely trying them out?
ng Si’an felt this chance was rare even for those selling weapons or those professionally in dangerous fields, normal folks usually wouldn’t have it.
Once back, this experience could brag not only to his friends but even those in professional circles. Since even those from professional backgrounds usually have limited exposure to weapons.
At least, not in the way where he lost track of the variety and models of weapons he handled in a day.
As Yan Fei busied himself selecting weapons, and Daniel handled the contracts, ng Si’an unabashedly played—though, to phrase it nicely, it was weapon testing, in truth, it was just play.
That single day held more value than visiting the seaside a hundred tis, a thousand ocean dips!
With the order placed, the weapons would take a few days to arrive.
However, Yan Fei planned to leave by then, not intending to stay much longer. Truly in the midst of Xiaohei and Old Chen’s reluctant expressions, he booked tickets with his wife—those two were indeed reluctant, because with Yan Fei, they felt empowered. Just his ntioning leaving had them uneasy.
They truly felt insecure!
