Chen Xiaobei drank so of the Hundred Herbs Potion to regain his strength. He then drove back to his ho and took the rest of the night off for a good rest.
However, when he reached Green Vine City in the afternoon he did not head for his ho first; he went to look for Xiangyu instead.
Xiangyu was beside himself with joy when he learned that his friend acquired sufficient rit points to redeem his soul. He got down to his knees and thanked Chen over and over again and would have cried out loud if he was not choking on his own tears.
Chen Xiaobei's hard-earned rit points would be reduced to zero after helping Xiangyu and Wenyuan redeem their souls. Though he was more than willing to spend all his rit points to save Xiangyu, Xiangyu was still genuinely moved by the brotherly sacrifice made. Naturally, he kept quiet about it.
As for Xiangyu, there was no doubt that he now considered Chen Xiaobei his eternal brother! From that mont onwards, he would share all the good things in his life with him and endure the sa hardships together. When the ti cos, he would be more than willing to lay down his life for Chen Xiaobei.
Nevertheless, Chen Xiaobei decided that he was going to hold back on the matter of the soul-redemption.
He was thinking about putting his luck and charm to good use since it had just increased trendously recently. Xiangyu told him that he would support whatever decision he made.
Chen Xiaobei left school and gave Wu Junfan a call to set up a eting.
"Xiaobei! Here!"
He was available when Chen Xiaobei had called him, so he ca and picked him up from school. Chen Xiaobei stared at him with an evil smile once he got in the car, making him feel goosebumps all over his body.
"What the hell is wrong with you? What's with that grin?"
"Sigh… I'll mourn you for three minutes…" Chen Xiaobei shook his head.
"Mourn? What do you an by that?" Wu Junfan was baffled, but was also apprehensive that his passenger might have co up with sothing evil.
"I have a friend who is coming to Green Vine City soon!" Chen Xiaobei chuckled.
"Your friend coming to Green Vine City has nothing to do with you mourning for !" Wu Junfan was even more puzzled.
"My friend will beco the second most handso man in Green Vine City soon! And you will drop to third!"
Wu Junfan rolled his eyes. "Are you trying to say that you are the most handso man in Green Vine City?"
"Of course! There's no one who can claim my throne in Green Vine City!" Chen Xiaobei smiled.
"Hmm… I did not see you for a few days, and your face has grown so much thicker!" Wu Junfan glared at him before calming down. "I'm a little curious. Who is this friend of yours?"
"That's a secret!" Chen Xiaobei smile again.
*Blaaargh…*
Wu Junfan almost puked blood. "You are the one who brought up this topic! Now, you are telling
it's a secret?"
"Hehe… Don't mind the details… I will introduce him to you when he arrives!" Chen Xiaobei grinned. "Let's get back to business. Actually, I want to check out the ten shop lots your father had promised
before."
"Why? Are you worried that we might not stick to our promise?" Wu Junfan smiled too. "I have prepared everything for you, you can use it anyti you want! Are you going to sell your First Love Peaches soon? You have to tell
when you do!"
"Don't worry, I won't abandon you! Still, I want to check out the shop lots first before I contact a reliable logistics company. After that, I'll hire so responsible employees – so I might not be able to sell the First Love Peach to others anyti soon!"
"Those are trifles! I'll take you to check out the shop lots first! Then, you can use our Wu Logistics Company and I will send over twenty employees from Wu Supermarket to assist you! Just call
if there's any problem!" Wu Junfan declared while patting his own chest.
"Damn! You are so nice!" Chen Xiaobei grinned. "If that's the case, I should be able to sell First Love Peach in two or three days!
"You don't have to worry when it cos to this stuff! I'll make sure everything is done within twenty-four hours!" Wu Junfan was the richest heir in Green Vine City. He was very confident when he made his promise.
Afterwards, Wu Junfan drove Chen Xiaobei to check out the shop lots, located at a shopping district that sells expensive goods.
In short, it was a strategic location where money was made and the perfect place for Chen Xiaobei to sell his First Love Peach! And if he goes out of stock, he could sell other pricey imported fruits too. Additionally, Wu Junfan also claid that he could expect high profit margins!
"This is the last shop! Let's look for a place for dinner after this!" Wu Junfan said.
"No problem! I shall treat you to a good al since you did
a huge favor today!" Chen Xiaobei was in a really good mood. "Just na whatever you want to eat! My motto is don't look for the right food but look for the most expensive food! Please don't try to help
to save money!"
"Hehe! And I was so curious about who inherited the Wu Family shop lots! Turns out this guy is so filthy rich f*ck as well! Hehehe…"
All of a sudden, an annoying voice can be heard from afar. A dozen hoodlums were walking towards the pair of them. The one who was talking had blonde hair, and a glance was enough tell you that he was their leader.
The blonde guy approached and glared at Chen Xiaobei. With a smug expression, he asked: "You're going to be the boss here starting today?"
"Yes." Chen Xiaobei nodded, glaring at the blonde guy in return.
"Do you know the rules around here?" The blonde guy asked arrogantly.
"Rules?" Chen Xiaobei's tone turned cold imdiately. "Just spill the beans already! And don't stand in front of my shops!"
"Motherf*cker! You dare behave so rudely in my face? Do you have a death wish?" The blonde guy was really mad; his teeth was gritting. "This is my territory! No shop owners dare to speak to
like that!"
"Blonde hair boss! We intend to resolve this issue peacefully!" Wu Junfan could see that things were quickly turning sour so he stepped forward to diate. "My na is Wu Junfan! I have not done any business in this shop before, but, I'm pretty sure you have heard about !"
"Hehe… So, Master Wu is here!" The blonde guy grinned and suddenly changed his tone. "So what if you are Master Wu?! Your family stuck to the rules when they were doing business here a long ti ago! I cannot let this brat break the rules!"
"What kind of rules?" Wu Junfan asked, perplexed. Small shop lots like these were usually managed by his family's employees, therefore he had no ideas what the 'rules' were.
"It's pretty simple! All you need to do is pay
twenty thousand every month, and I will make sure no one disturbs your business. Naturally, your profits will be good!" The blonde guy answered haughtily, clearly fearless despite knowing who Wu Junfan was.
"So, basically, you are collecting protection fees?! I heard about this rule before! But, twenty thousand a month is too much!"
"Hehehe… I'm only collecting five thousand from the other shops! But this son of the bitch here disrespected , that's why I want him to pay twenty thousand every month!" The blonde guy stared at Chen Xiaobei hatefully.
"Twenty thousand? I'm not going to pay you a single cent! What are you going to do about it?" Chen Xiaobei retorted imdiately.
