He was really afraid that something might happen. When he heard that it was Rong Fei who knocked on the door, Boss Xue was so frightened that he slumped down on his chair with a pale face.
Although Li Mi was also frightened and his heart was beating wildly, he was much calmer than Boss Xue. His eyes rolled around in his eye sockets a few times and he whispered in Boss Xue's ear.
"Boss, since you didn't break in, I guess you're probably not here to arrest anyone, but to discuss things."
"Talk...talk...talk about things?"
"Yes, just like I guessed before."
"What if...you guessed wrong?"
Boss Xue said suspiciously.
"This room has no windows, only the door can go in and out. Right now, the person named Rong is blocking the door. There is no way to the sky, and no way to the earth. It's just the two of us. There is no other way to make a mistake."
"Now what?"
"What else can I do? Open the door and politely invite him to come in and sit down. No matter what request he makes for a while, just agree to it. No matter what, it is important to save your life first."
The two of them discussed it, and Boss Xue calmed down a little, walked over and opened the door.
"See...see...see...see Mr. Rong."
Boss Xue, who was trying to stay calm, started to tie his tongue when he saw Rong Fei.
"Hahahaha, meet... meet... meet... meet Boss Xue."
Rong Fei cupped his hands and responded nervously.
"This must be Mr. Li, the White Paper Fan. I'm so lucky to meet you."
The two of them were a little flattered by Rong Fei's kind attitude, and they quickly bowed to welcome him into the room and sat down on the main seat.
"We are all sensible people, so I won't beat around the bush. Boss Xue's brothers must have told you what happened today."
After sitting down, Rong Fei went straight to the point.
"Hmm... I heard something, I heard something."
Boss Xue raised his sleeves and wiped the sweat from his forehead and nodded repeatedly.
"I wonder what Boss Xue has planned?"
"Well... make a... plan, Xiao... Xiao De will definitely change his mind from now on and abide by the law..."
"Brother, drink tea, drink tea."
Li Mi on the side quickly picked up a cup of tea and stuffed it into Boss Xue's mouth, blocking his words.
"Sir, please don't be offended. Our boss is upright by nature and doesn't have the bells and whistles of others. Hehehehe, it doesn't matter what our plans are in the future. It all depends on your arrangement. If you say we will go east, we will never go west. If you say God, we will never go west."
If you don’t enter the ground, everything depends on you, sir, taking your lead.”
After blocking Boss Xue's mouth, Li Mi picked up the teapot and poured tea for Rong Fei. He looked at Rong Fei's face and said carefully.
"Well, the tea is nice and the people are nice."
Rong Fei took a sip of tea soup and pretended to praise it.
"I like to talk about things with smart people. This can save me a lot of time talking nonsense. Ji Xian Si has been silent for too long. Compared with other yamen in the imperial court, it is not even considered a loser. It is almost like a beggar. Presumably
You have also heard that some time ago, the Ji Xian Division was deprived of its salary by the Ministry of Revenue, right?"
"I heard it, I heard it."
Boss Xue and Li Mi nodded in response.
"Although we have to get back the salary arrears, rice in Kyoto is expensive, so how much use can such a little money do. Although we don't have many people in the Ji Xian Division, we can't afford to have a big family to support behind each one. I, the chief officer, can't help it.
If you can't bear to see the brothers under you continue to suffer from poverty, don't you just want to give them some benefits and get some money?".z.br
"I admire you for showing sympathy to your subordinates!"
"It's all what it should be, and it's not worth mentioning."
Rong Fei waved his hand and continued.
"The city of Kyoto has been at peace for hundreds of years, and all walks of life have already had their own peaks and backgrounds. When Rong first arrived in Kyoto, he was weak and knew that he was unable to steal food from other yamen. He had no choice but to pick it up.
You’re just picking up leftovers that others don’t like.”
When Li Mi heard this, he kicked Boss Xue under the table.
The two have been working together for a long time, and this
There was still some tacit understanding. Boss Xue quickly took out a stack of banknotes from his arms, stood up and handed it to Rong Fei with both hands respectfully.
"Xiao De is willing to do his best to help adults solve their problems."
Rong Fei glanced at the banknote in Boss Xue's hand, smiled slightly, and picked up the tea cup to drink tea.
Boss Xue thought Rong Fei was too young and was wondering if he had any valuable items. Li Mi snatched the banknote and placed it on the table in front of Rong Fei.
"It's a small greeting gift, I hope you will accept it."
Li Mi said with a smile.
"What are you doing when you stand? Sit down and talk."
Rong Fei put down his teacup, smiled and waved to the two of them.
"After all, it was your wish. Rong really couldn't bear to refuse, so he thanked you both for the brothers of Ji Xian Si. However, it is better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish. Even though your intentions are good, they are like water without roots.
There will always be a day when all the money is spent. I can't wait until all the money is spent and then lick my face and ask for charity.
So, I thought that we might as well cooperate and take all the business in the four cities of Kyoto into our hands. I wonder what Mr. Xue is careless about?"
"Okay, okay, sir, we can do whatever you want us to do."
Boss Xue thought about what Li Mi had told him before, no matter what request the surnamed Rong made, just agree to it first, and then make long-term plans after the crisis tonight was resolved.
And Rong Fei's suggestion really made his heart beat violently.
So he nodded in agreement hurriedly.
But Li Mi tried to stop it but it was too late. He was only worried because his heart was pounding and he was sweating.
"Okay, Boss Xue, why don't you just be straightforward? Rong admires you. I'll toast you with tea instead of wine."
When Boss Xue saw Rong Fei holding up his teacup and respecting him across the table, he was immediately flattered and stood up hurriedly.
"Mr. Li, don't you want to have a drink together?"
Rong Fei asked, looking at Li Mi who was bowing his head in thought.
"Ah... ah, I'm sorry. I suddenly thought that it was getting late and my blind mother had no one to take care of me at home, so I became a little distracted. Please forgive me. I'll punish myself with a drink."
Li Mi stood up, picked up the tea cup and drank it all in one gulp, but in his heart he was thinking about finding a way to leave here quickly.
Not just leaving Jinfeng Xiaoyu Tower, but leaving Kyoto and going as far as possible.
There is really no place to stay in this city of Kyoto.
"In that case, Rong will keep the story short, so as not to delay Mr. Li's return home to take care of his mother. With a word from a gentleman, the cooperation is finalized. I will arrange for people to contact Mr. Li after the details of the specific cooperation details and profit distribution are settled.
Let’s talk about it in detail, but there is one thing that needs to be explained at this moment.
Although businesses all over the world are diverse, the general formula is to reach the same goal through different routes, consisting of three parts: source of goods, channels, and buyers. Now that the cooperation has been confirmed, a certain Rong is not considered an outsider, and he wants to understand these three parts.
How does it work specifically, so as not to make a joke out of confusion in the future, hahahaha.
Mr. Rong already has a rough idea of the source of the goods. Only the channels and buyers need to be introduced in detail by Mr. Xue."
"Um...this..."
Boss Xue was a little frightened by Rong Fei's name before, but he was not really stupid. Now that he expected such a critical and sensitive topic, he immediately became alert and pretended to think, but secretly he was giving Li Mi a call.
wink.
what to do?
To say or not to say?
Nonsense. If you don't say it, you won't necessarily die. If you say it, you will definitely die. Of course you can't say it.
Li Mi responded with the same wink.
But what should we do now? If we don't say anything, can the man named Rong let us go easily?
Let’s try dragging first.
Rong Fei saw the two men secretly communicating with each other, but he didn't point it out. He smiled slightly, picked up the tea cup, blew in, and stared at the leaves dancing in circles on the tea soup to admire them.
"Well... this... the buyer's identity is mysterious, and we don't know much about it. Every time there is a transaction, the buyer sends someone to inform us of the time and location. We just need to deliver the goods and arrive on time. It's not that we are deceiving you, sir. In fact,
Because we don’t know either.”
After a brief eye contact, Li Mi replied on behalf of Boss Xue.
"You two have never met the buyer?"
Rong Fei asked strangely.
"Never seen it, not even once."
Boss Xue and Li Mi shook their heads in unison.
"This is strange. Since we have never met the buyer, how did the deal come to be negotiated? There must be someone who can make the decision, or a middleman that you can trust."
"One night a few years ago, Xiao De was sleeping in his room. Someone threw a bag of gold leaves from the window and woke him up. He said it was a deposit in advance, and then the sale was confirmed through the door and window. Every time he paid,
When the goods were delivered, the people who came were all wearing night clothes and covering their faces with black cloth, so they couldn't see their appearance at all.
The man was so mysterious that he even thought the deal was unreliable at the time, but he couldn't bear to pay too much as a deposit. That was twenty gold leaves, a full one hundred taels. If you calculate it carefully, it's not a loss at all.
, so we started this business.”
Boss Xue answered honestly.
"With so many transactions, you have never seen the true face of the buyer?"
"Young man, I swear to God, I've never seen this before."
Rong Fei nodded and stopped worrying about this issue.
"When will you trade next?"
"Um…"
"The buyer hasn't sent anyone to notify him yet, so we don't know either."
Before Boss Xue could speak, Li Mi answered first.
"In this case, after the time for the next transaction is determined, Boss Xue will send someone to Ji Xian Division to inform him. After all, it is a long-term transaction. Both parties must sit down and have a frank chat to connect their feelings. Moreover.
The price should also go up, otherwise Rong's sideways intervention would be meaningless. Do you think this is the truth?"
"Yes, yes, sir, you are absolutely right."
Li Mi nodded hurriedly and complimented.
"That's good. Cooperation means having the same goal. Now that the discussion has been completed, Mr. Rong will not continue to disturb the elegance of the two of you and leave."
Rong Fei stood up, bowed his hands to the two of them, and walked straight towards the door.
Before leaving, of course I didn't forget to put the stack of treasure notes that Boss Xue paid homage to in my pocket.
Is this...done?
Is this Rong Fei so easy to talk to?
Seeing that Rong Fei did not embarrass them, they were both surprised and happy, and quickly stood up to send him off.
"Oh, by the way, I almost forgot something. At midnight tonight, the Anti-immortal Division will join forces with the Criminal Department and the Kyoto Prefecture to arrest all the criminals involved in human trafficking in the east, west and north cities. Don't worry, nothing happened in the south city. However,
I have sent people to temporarily transfer all the goods in your hands to the Jixian Division. At the same time, I warned my brothers that they are not allowed to work before the next transaction, otherwise don't blame someone for being merciless."
After that, Rong Fei left the stunned two people behind, opened the door and walked away.
As soon as she walked out of the room, a pretty maid came over and saluted Rong Feifu.
"My girl Yunxiang would like to invite you to meet me."
