Chapter 1141: Chapter 581 Liu JinXue and Boss Luo_3
Both of them were startled and, turning around, they noticed for the first time an old man sitting in the shadow of the wall inside the gate. His somewhat eerie eyes were fixed on them, even motioning with his hand to point them in a direction.
In fact, they were already heading in the direction the old man was pointing. They had been startled first by the Tibetan Mastiff, then taken aback by the Mercedes Benz S600—never would they have imagined that in such a remote and impoverished place one would find such a luxury car, and that it was being used to run errands and buy sockets...
So they were a bit more cautious as they walked, afraid of encountering any more surprises. They didn’t expect the old man to think they were about to go the other way. After all, wasn’t it clear to everyone which way to go with the tile houses to the west and the buildings to the east?
After thanking the old man, they steadied themselves and continued on their way, only to see a girl looking as if she had just stepped out of a painting emerge from a room, showing a hint of surprise upon seeing them, before she smilingly said, "You two are here to see Boss Yan, aren’t you? That’s his office."
Stunning!
After being awed, they muttered to themselves for a moment, and Xiaochen couldn’t help but take a second glance at the girl’s retreating figure, whispering, "Brother Luo, did you see clearly? Isn’t that... some movie star?"
Brother Luo replied in a low, scolding voice, "Don’t talk nonsense, and don’t look at what you shouldn’t!"
Initially, they thought coming to such a rural area and considering themselves purchasing agents from a big city gave them a sense of superiority. But after a series of surprises, even Boss Luo began to be cautious.
They knocked on the door and heard a voice from inside: "The door is unlocked, come in!"
When they pushed the door open, which was ajar, they were taken aback.
No one inside?
Then they heard a voice from under the desk: "Just give me a second to plug in this mouse and there... All done..."
As the voice trailed off, a young man popped out from under the desk, smiling and asking, "Do you two need something?"
Xiaochen, who had just been scolded by Boss Luo, was eager to prove himself and immediately stepped forward, saying, "Hello, we’re here to see Boss Yan, is he not in?"
The young man appeared very young and his clothes were not only ordinary but also dirty. Looking at the computer box beside him, Xiaochen thought he had figured out who the man was—clearly a worker here to install computers.
To their surprise, the young man smiled, "I am Yan Fei. What can I do for you two?"
Liu JinXue, that bookish guy, had something on his mind when he came, and he hadn’t properly introduced his junior brother. He had only mentioned that the junior was much younger than him, but he hadn’t mentioned he was this young—they had asked for directions at the Provincial road junction in the west, and the restaurant owner, who didn’t seem very trustworthy, had eagerly called him Brother Fei as soon as they inquired about Boss Yan...
At that moment, they speculated that being sincerely called Brother Fei by a restaurant owner who didn’t appear to be a good man indicated that Brother Fei was quite an influential person in the area, definitely considered a big shot locally—at least they assumed, you couldn’t guess his age, but he had to be over thirty, right? If he were too young, who would take him seriously?
Who would have thought that when they finally met, they mistook him for a computer installer—Boss Yan was also quite frustrated. He initially said that all five assembled computers were in the conference room, but everyone argued: wasn’t it customary for the boss’s office to have one too? So, while installing, he had saved one for himself.
Today, he had found some time to finally set up his own computer!
After the embarrassing mistake of not recognizing him in person was over, Boss Luo formally introduced himself to Yan Fei.
When Yan Fei heard that Liu JinXue had arrived but hadn’t even reached the cattle farm before going to see the greenhouses, he couldn’t help but laugh and cry: Senior brother Liu really was something—was he so sure that the greenhouse he was looking for was for growing mushrooms? Since the recent floodwaters, some new greenhouses had been built, and a few were even used for growing vegetables! If he rashly went over like that, what if he caused a misunderstanding?
So Yan Fei suddenly couldn’t sit still anymore. As he walked outside, he apologized to Boss Luo, "Boss Luo, I’m really sorry. This is Senior brother Liu’s first time here. He’s unfamiliar, and some locals here don’t quite understand the rules. I need to rush over and make sure no misunderstandings have arisen. Could you wait a moment?"
As he was speaking, he was reaching for his phone on the way out, planning to ask Wang Jiuming if he knew about Senior brother Liu’s visit.
Boss Luo was quite frustrated. If it weren’t for the reduced supply of Agaricus bisporus mushrooms due to this year’s flood, if he didn’t want to lose the quality source from Sancha River village, would he have bothered to personally visit Liu Jin’s place and then come here?
Fortunately, he had seen along the way that there were quite a few newly built greenhouses in the area, hinting at an increase in future supplies, which offered him some consolation. Otherwise, he didn’t know how he would have coped—being a businessman, he knew that if the quality here remained as before, securing a high-quality supplier, even in smaller quantities, would greatly help him expand his business.
So seeing Boss Yan heading out hastily, he could only stand up and offer, "Alright, we know exactly where Boss Liu got out of the car earlier. Our car is right at the entrance. Let’s drive over together!"
Yan Fei nodded, not bothering with courtesy, and immediately called Wang Jiuming.
Wang Jiuming had no idea about this and was just as puzzled, "Why would he do this? He’s said before that doing business this way just takes advantage of people, and it makes him feel guilty. I’ve even advised him about it twice... Oh well, it’s too late now anyway. You’ll have to handle it yourself. To be honest, I’ve come to realize that relying on his few greenhouses, with his business skills, it’d be good if he doesn’t lose money."
"But his technical skills are excellent; he’s very thorough in his research. He’s also a straightforward person, you know that from dealing with him... I won’t say more, after all, you’ve been getting along for so long, if you can help, please help him out. Consider it a favor owed to you by this senior brother, okay?"
Yan Fei laughed, "That’s not a big deal, I need to find him first and see what he’s planning. Don’t worry, after all, we’ve been calling each other ’senior brother’ for so long, I won’t just stand by if I can help. It would be rude to talk about owing favors. Teacher He is still here with us, having tea with Teacher Qi by the river!"
While on the phone, he and Boss Luo got into the car. Xiaochen started the vehicle and drove toward the west side of the bridge. Just as they were picking up speed, they suddenly slowed down again.
The driver, Xiaochen, explained the reason for slowing down: "Boss Yan, Brother Luo, up ahead... Boss Liu... is already on his way back..."
Yan Fei’s eyesight was definitely not the problem. Glancing ahead, he understood why Xiaochen was hesitant in his words: Senior brother Liu was walking towards them, dejected, along the roadside. His disheveled appearance wasn’t the worst of it—of the two shoes on his feet, one was missing, the other he was carrying in his hand!
Seeing his pitiful state, Yan Fei didn’t know whether to be angry or depressed. What kind of situation was this!
After telling Wang Jiuming on the phone that he had seen the person, he quickly got out of the car to greet Senior brother Liu.
