In Hu Yaoqing's courtyard, Zhao Minglei stood in the courtyard and waited eagerly. After a while, he saw Wang Juan coming out with a reluctant expression.

"Juanzi..." Zhao Minglei hurriedly greeted her.

"Didn't I tell you not to come here to see me? Why are you here again?" Wang Juan threw a "hygiene ball" to Zhao Minglei and complained to him very dissatisfiedly.

Since she first came to Hu Yaoqing's place and fell in love with this kind of life, Wang Juan has spent almost every day here every day.

Although she once had "indescribable" things happen with Zhao Minglei here, Wang Juan gradually lost interest in Zhao Minglei not long after that. Firstly, it was because Zhao Minglei couldn't let go of his character and he didn't have much fun. Secondly, Wang Juan gradually lost interest in Zhao Minglei.

Wang Juan also didn't like others teasing her after seeing Zhao Minglei, which made Wang Juan feel uncomfortable.

It's better to have fun and have fun here by yourself. In addition, Zhao Minglei is not here, and Wang Juan is also playing freely and openly.

"Something happened, something happened..." Zhao Minglei ignored Wang Juan's thoughts and grabbed her and walked aside. When he got to the corner, Zhao Minglei said hurriedly.

"What's wrong? Is the sky falling? You're in a panic. You don't have any manliness at all." Wang Juan glanced at Zhao Minglei with contempt. As time goes by, Zhao Minglei's attraction to her is getting weaker and weaker.

Except for his good looks, there is nothing else that can compare to Zhang Liming, even the people who hang out here on weekdays are not as good as him.

Zhao Minglei is good-looking, but this guy is neither calm nor dignified, and he often pretends to be a gentleman. Not to mention other things, this guy even climbed into Wang Juan's bed, but he still acts serious in front of others.

Is it meaningful to wear a mask every day?

As time went by, Wang Juan became less and less interested in Zhao Minglei, and even became a little impatient.

Lighting up a cigarette, this is a women's Moore, the imported kind. This cigarette is very popular in Yanjing circles these days. Wang Juan fell in love with it after smoking it once, and she always carries a pack with her.

.

After taking a puff and blowing out a smoke ring skillfully, Wang Juan asked impatiently: "Tell me, what's the matter?"

Zhao Minglei calmed down and then told everything that happened. After hearing what Zhao Minglei said, Wang Juan was stunned and looked at Zhao Minglei in disbelief: "Is this true?"

"Of course it is! Why else would I be in such a hurry to find you?" Zhao Minglei was getting angry now, and he was actually sweating profusely on a not hot day.

"Have you called? No one was found?" Wang Juan asked.

"I called, and the person who answered the phone was a woman from Xiangjiang. I don't know what she did. I almost didn't understand the Xiangjiang dialect she spoke..." Zhao Minglei said with gestures.

"Did you make a typo?"

"Impossible! The number has been verified and it is absolutely correct!"

"How much does this batch of goods cost?" Wang Juan asked after calming down.

Zhao Minglei swallowed and said with difficulty: "Three...three million four hundred and eighty thousand..."

"What!"

Wang Juan was startled, and even the half cigarette in her hand fell to the ground involuntarily.

"Three, four hundred and eighty thousand? Are you right? Not four hundred and eighty thousand?"

"How is that possible? It's 3.48 million!"

"So much money? This...how is this possible? You got so much money? Why didn't I know?" Wang Juan suddenly became anxious. The business in Dashilan has been doing well, especially with Xiao Qiao and the others.

After grabbing a lot of customers, the business became even better.

At the beginning, he could earn a profit of 200,000 yuan per month. The majority of this money was given to Zhang Liming, and the remaining part was divided between Zhao Minglei, Wang Juan and Lao Xiong.

Among them, Wang Juan received about 20,000 to 30,000 yuan, which was considered a huge amount of money in this era, and as she used various means to snatch customers, her monthly profits gradually increased, let's say in August.

, Wang Juan received a small sum of 100,000 yuan at once, which means that the monthly profit has reached nearly 500,000 yuan.

But now Zhao Minglei suddenly told her that Wang Juan had directly transferred a huge sum of 3.48 million yuan without Wang Juan's knowledge. Moreover, the whereabouts of this huge sum of money were now unknown, and the purchased goods did not arrive on time, and even

The supplier could not be contacted either.

Zhao Minglei's face turned green and red, and he didn't know how to explain it to Wang Juan.

This purchase is the largest purchase so far. The main reason is that Xiangjiang told Zhao Minglei that they have the latest style of winter clothes. Zhao Minglei has seen the samples provided by the other party and feels that these winter clothes are really good. They are not only fashionable but also of excellent workmanship.

If you can get it, it will definitely sell well.

But the problem is that this time Xiangjiang has put forward conditions for Zhao Minglei. Since Mr. Steven initially said that it is best for the northern market to be represented by a large wholesaler, although the cooperation with Zhao Minglei has been pretty good in the past few months, zero

The fragmentary sales amount still did not meet Mr. Steven's requirements.

In addition, this batch of winter clothes are all new models. Xiangjiang does not want to sell them in batches in the previous way and plans to sell them all at once. If Zhao Minglei cannot take them in one go, then this batch of winter clothes will be given to others. As for the north behind

Agency cooperation also needs to be reconsidered. Asking Zhao Minglei now is just considering that the previous cooperation relationship was pretty good, and it also gives Zhao Minglei a chance.

For this reason, Zhao Minglei made the decision to acquire the goods after careful consideration. Once he acquired the goods, he would not only be able to make a large profit on this batch of goods, but more importantly, he would be able to show his strength to Mr. Steven.

Monopolizing the entire Yanjing and even the northern market has always been Zhao Minglei's dream. Now that a great opportunity is in front of him, how could Zhao Minglei give up?

But when he calculated the funds for the purchase, Zhao Minglei took a breath of cold air. The sum was calculated to be a total of 3.48 million, and Zhao Minglei couldn't get it out even if he tried to sell it.

From using tricks to get Luo Yang away from Dashilan, and then using tricks to steal a lot of customers from his cousin Xiao Qiao, in a few months, Zhao Minglei and the others only made a total of three million, plus these

Most of the money was given to Zhang Liming, and the amount that actually fell into Zhao Minglei's own hands was less than 400,000 at best.

A lot of expenses have been spent these days, so the money Zhao Minglei can come up with is only about 300,000 yuan at best. As for Lao Xiong, this guy has many brothers, and he doesn’t spend a lot of money on weekdays. Although he had divided money before

I paid a lot, but there was not even one hundred thousand left that I could use.

After collecting everything together, including the money in the store and the money originally planned to be distributed to everyone in September, Zhao Minglei finally managed to collect 960,000. Even so, it was still far short of 3.48 million.

Woolen cloth.

It stands to reason that this matter should have been discussed with Zhang Liming and Wang Juan in advance, but Zhao Minglei and Lao Xiong have always been taking care of Dashilar. Zhang Liming has never cared about the affairs of Dashilan, except as Zhao Minglei's backstage, helping

Except for settling some official matters, he has never even been to Dashilar.

As for Wang Juan, she came often at first, but as Wang Juan became more and more fascinated by dancing and having fun at Hu Yaoqing's place, the frequency of her visits began to decrease. Let's just say last month, Wang Juan came here twice.

, one of them was when I was bored shopping and stopped by to take a look, and the other time I ran to ask how much I could get before I split the money.

The two hands-off shopkeepers usually don't care about things, and Zhao Minglei doesn't complain. In his opinion, it's better to avoid someone pointing fingers behind his back.

These days, Zhao Minglei and Mr. Zhao have become obsessed with the feeling of being a successful person in business. In his opinion, he is a born businessman. Every day when he hears people calling him Mr. Zhao, he is taller than Mr. Zhao, Zhao Minglei feels so beautiful.

It feels as light as stepping on cotton.

In this way, Zhao Minglei made the decision privately without informing Zhang Liming or even Wang Juan in advance.

In addition to the 960,000 he raised, Zhao Minglei asked Lao Xiong to sell off the clothes that were about to change seasons as soon as possible to get back the funds. In addition, he also found many big merchants, both local in Yanjing and from other places, to get the money.

Mr. Steven boasted about his samples and then suggested making a deposit.

I have to say that Mr. Steven's new clothes are really good, with novel styles and exquisite fabrics. Everyone is a veteran in this industry. Once you ask about the price, and then take a look and touch it, you will understand that once these clothes arrive, you will definitely make a lot of money.

A sum. In addition, Zhao Minglei and Lao Xiong are now quite well-known in Dashilan, and they have official backgrounds and cooperation with big bosses in Xiangjiang. These merchants still trust Zhao Minglei and the others.

In this way, Zhao Minglei booked all the goods in advance, and finally collected the payment from Mr. Steven according to the 50% advance payment. Then he couldn't wait to remit the money, and then started to do the work after the goods arrived.

The dream of making a fortune.

When the payment was remitted, Mr. Steven called a few days later to tell Zhao Minglei that the payment had been received and that he had begun arranging the shipment. At the same time, Xiangjiang also sent an official shipping fax to Zhao Minglei.

Zhao Minglei was even more happy when he saw the shipping list on the fax. He was so happy that he drank a bottle of wine during dinner in the evening.

But Zhao Minglei never expected that the goods that were supposedly supposed to arrive a few days ago would be nowhere to be seen, which made Zhao Minglei a little anxious.

As time goes by, those merchants who paid advance payments also come to ask when the goods will arrive. After all, they have already given you half of the money, but the agreed arrival time has arrived and you have not seen the goods. Why don't you come and ask?

What the hell.

As time went by, Zhao Minglei felt more and more uneasy, but he was still trying to convince himself and found various reasons for Mr. Steven. Maybe it was because of the difficulty in arranging the freight trains due to the large volume of goods, or maybe it was because of the local trains

What about delays in transshipment? Or maybe it’s due to factors such as weather...

Anyway, Zhao Minglei searched for all the reasons he could find, and told himself again and again that there was absolutely no problem with this matter. But today's cruel reality gave Zhao Minglei a blow. Not only did Lao Xiong still not mention the goods at the train station, but he had also been able to contact him before.
