Chapter 1603: Chapter 1602: Professional Con Artist
After lunch, Zhou Yi grabbed the car keys: "I have nothing to do anyway, so I’ll go with you to take a look!"
"Sure."
Ling Feng smiled: "It’s rare that we’re spending so ti together, let’s go."
The two of them went downstairs, got in the car, and headed to the address they found online.
The office of Yongsheng Trade and Comrce was in the outskirts of the city, and it took so winding turns following the map to finally see their sign.
After parking, Zhou Yi looked at the storefront and sign, then turned to Ling Feng: "With this kind of setup, you think they can do business with a winery?"
"That’s why I think they’re scamrs!"
Ling Feng chuckled and continued: "Let’s just wait here, I’ll use my Divine Sense to watch them and see what these people are really up to!"
"Okay, you keep an eye on them, I’ll go buy a drink!"
Zhou Yi said, then got out of the car and left.
Ling Feng activated his Divine Sense and scanned the company across the street.
It was a two-story building, with the ground floor being a lobby-like area where a fat man with big ears sat inside, looking bored while playing on his phone.
There were a few cubicles on the second floor, with two won busy working at their computers.
Seeing it was just these three people inside, Ling Feng sneered, thinking to himself, what’s the deal? Is this company really this idle?
After watching for a while and feeling a bit bored, Zhou Yi returned with a drink.
After getting in the car, she handed a bottle to Ling Feng and asked, "How’s it going?"
"Just three people inside, a slacker, and two clerks."
Ling Feng smiled wryly and continued, "It seems they don’t really have any background, just a simple scam company!"
"Is that so?"
Zhou Yi thought for a mont, took a sip of her drink, and said, "Then I’ll go probe them a bit, if they’re just small-ti scamrs, forget it!"
"Sounds good."
Ling Feng nodded, not wanting to waste too much ti there.
Zhou Yi got out of the car and headed straight towards Yongsheng Trade and Comrce.
With his Divine Sense locked onto her, Ling Feng watched her enter. The fat man only glanced up but said nothing.
Zhou Yi stood charmingly still, and yet there was no reaction from the other side, making Ling Feng wonder what kind of business functions this way?
"Excuse , is this Yongsheng Trade and Comrce?"
Seeing that the other party wasn’t moving, Zhou Yi had to ask.
"Yes, what do you want?"
The fat man finally spoke.
"I heard you’re distributors of alcohol, I’m curious about your prices."
Zhou Yi looked around and said casually.
"There’s a price list on the counter, take a look yourself!"
The fat man pointed with his hand and then lowered his head back to his phone.
Zhou Yi was speechless too, stepping forward to pick up the list, thinking to herself, with this attitude, how can they ever do business?
But since she was there to probe, Zhou Yi didn’t leave imdiately but glanced at the prices on the list.
She hardly ever bought alcohol herself and had no idea about the prices, couldn’t tell what’s expensive or cheap, so after a glance she asked, "If I order a lot of this rice wine, could it be a bit cheaper?"
"No, wholesale price, sa price no matter how much you order!"
The fat man replied in a gruff voice without looking up.
"Really? Even for a few hundred cases?" Zhou Yi asked.
"A few hundred cases?"
Hearing this, the fat man raised his head in surprise, "You want a few hundred cases?"
"Yes, can it be cheaper?" Zhou Yi asked.
"I’m not sure, need to ask the boss." The fat man said.
Zhou Yi smiled: "Alright, ask for !"
The fat man turned off his mobile ga and dialed a number.
Watching this in the car, Ling Feng was a bit unclear about what Zhou Yi was up to, so he muttered to himself, "What’s happening?"
The fat man reported to the boss over the phone that soone wanted to order a large quantity of alcohol, and the man on the other end said, "Tell her to wait, I’ll co over right away!"
"Okay!"
The fat man hung up the phone and looked up at Zhou Yi, "Please wait, the boss will be here soon to discuss with you!"
"Alright!"
Zhou Yi nodded, pulled over a chair and sat down, then asked, "How long will it take for him to get here?"
"Not far, just a few minutes." The fat man looked at his phone and said.
Hearing this from the car, Ling Feng imdiately expanded his Divine Sense to cover a kiloter.
Though it was on the outskirts, the area wasn’t rural but rather filled with various businesses, and many yards had corrugated tal buildings that seed to be warehouses.
Under the shroud of Divine Sense, all vehicles on the street were in view, and Ling Feng quickly spotted a black SUV heading their way.
The car carried four people, all with fierce-looking faces, visibly not good people.
Ling Feng wondered if one of them might be the boss of Yongsheng Trade and Comrce?
Judging by their appearance, they didn’t seem like legitimate businessn.
A few minutes later, the vehicle parked across the street, and the group exited and filed inside.
Upon seeing Zhou Yi, they all paused for a mont, then one of the burly n asked, "Miss, are you here to buy alcohol?"
Zhou Yi nodded: "Yes, I just started a new company specializing in wine sales!"
"And you’re only looking for one type of wine?" the burly man asked.
Zhou Yi laughed: "Of course not, as long as the price is right, I want every type!"
The burly man’s eyes glead as if he saw a huge business opportunity, and he nodded: "Great, we can certainly discuss this in detail. Our company may not look big, but we actually have quite a bit of strength. We are the exclusive agents for over a dozen famous dostic baijiu brands!"
"Really?"
Zhou Yi’s face lit up with delight, then she asked, "That’s great, by the way, do you have the newly launched apple wine?"
"We do!"
The burly man nodded without hesitation, then quickly added, "We just acquired the distribution rights for it. From now on, all apple wine sales will be handled by us!"
Hearing this, Zhou Yi was thrilled: "Really? That’s wonderful. I’ll take 200 cases of apple wine, can you supply that?"
"No problem!"
The burly man imdiately nodded and patted his chest: "Leave it to !"
"..."
Zhou Yi and Ling Feng were both speechless.
Both of them knew this burly man was lying, yet he acted as if it were the truth, without a hint of guilt!
How strong must one’s nerves be to do that?
Even among scamrs, there are amateurs and professionals, and this burly man was clearly a professional!
After a brief silence, Zhou Yi nodded: "Alright, since that’s the case, I won’t look elsewhere, I’ll place all my orders with you!"
"Sure, but since you’re ordering so much, arranging for it can be quite troubleso, we need a deposit, okay?" the burly man said with a crafty look.
Zhou Yi paused, reached into her pocket: "That’s no problem, but I left my phone and wallet in the car, I’ll go get them!"
