Chapter 1562: Chapter 750: A Chance Encounter - Sampling a Package

"I told you there was no point in bringing your books, see? Can’t focus on reading them, can you!" Xiaohei said to Luo Dahe, who kept looking up and outside, with a chuckle.

Luo Dahe’s face turned red all at once, and he started to stammer, "What are you talking about, Brother Xiaohei? I’m just checking to see if anyone’s coming to do business with us."

"Then why do you look so guilty?" Xiaohei rolled his eyes and tossed a piece of beef jerky into his mouth. "If you want to look, just look openly. The more you sneak around, the more those grown women and young wives will find you repulsive. If you look openly, they might even be pleased... They dress up so showily in this hot weather, if not for us to appreciate!"

"We haven’t had any business all morning, I’m afraid we won’t meet Boss’s expectations..." Luo Dahe said, just trying to make conversation as he was thick-skinned, blushing even more than before, and despite Xiaohei’s encouragement, he still felt too embarrassed to stare at the passing crowd with a serious face like Xiaohei did... Especially those young women dressed in thin, scant clothing.

"Didn’t you see what Heizi and the others went off to do!" said Xiaohei nonchalantly. "Right now, we’re not short on business at all. Our job is just to make sure nothing gets stolen and to ensure that these two promotional boards stand tall here until the end of the fair. Don’t worry, no rush. Maybe those two Little Ni’ers will bring in some business in a bit."

While he said this, his hands were busy taking a few packs of beef jerky out of the box at his feet and piling them even higher on the already full display table, as if that would attract customers.

The two Little Ni’ers he mentioned were girls from a nearby Vocational School, brought in by Heizi to hand out flyers. They came to earn some living expenses by working part-time during the fair.

Xiaohei’s words were light-hearted, but he was genuinely a bit nervous inside. It was all Heizi’s fault for thinking it was more urgent to go to the leather factory, leaving Xiaohei and Luo Dahe here while taking the others there. The two of them were first-timers in Provincial City and had never been to a fair before, so they didn’t really know what to do.

Luo Dahe even brought a book on economic management to self-study, but upon arriving here, he was nearly dazzled by the youthful and attractively dressed young girls—a far cry from the conservative girls in Sancha River town. Not only the rustic Luo Dahe, but even the country bumpkin Xiaohei couldn’t take his eyes off them.

"Manager Shi, you’re attending the fair too?" While the two of them were chatting away, a few merchants passing by noticed the Cow flower company’s promotional signs and the leader warmly greeted Xiaohei.

"Boss Ning, you’re here too, hello, hello." Xiaohei quickly stood up, squeezing past the small display table to shake hands with Boss Ning from Jiang City.

Jiang City’s business had always been good, so seeing anyone from Cow flower company, Boss Ning was naturally enthusiastic. As soon as they shook hands, he hurried to introduce his companions: "This is Manager Shi Tianlong from Cow flower company, and here we have Boss Tang, Boss Liu from our side in Jiang City..."

The group quickly became friendly and engaged in a lively chat. Meanwhile, Luo Dahe, who had been looking around, suddenly called out, "Brother Xiaohei, Boss Yan is here too!"

All eyes immediately turned in the direction Luo Dahe was gazing, and sure enough at a distance, among a group of students chatting and laughing, was none other than Boss Yan.

They saw Boss Yan, and Boss Yan also spotted them. However, Boss Yan’s reaction left them puzzled, as they saw Yan Fei making faces and gesturing to the people around him, unsure what he meant.

The fair was bustling with people coming and going, and Yan Fei’s group wasn’t moving quickly, giving Boss Ning an opportunity to quickly ask Xiaohei, "What’s Boss Yan trying to say?"

Xiaohei was also confused, "I don’t know? Seems like he just started school today, all those around him must be his new classmates, right? Does he want us to back him up or is he planning for us to pretend we don’t know him?"

This guess was quite plausible. Although Xiaohei arrived late to the scene, he had known Yan Fei for quite some time, having started cooperating from the very beginning when Yan Fei set up his cattle farm.

While Boss Ning and the group behind him all frowned in thought, the older Boss Tang said, "Does he want us to pretend we don’t know him? When my kid was in school, he hated when I picked him up by car. He said all the other kids rode bicycles, and me picking him up by car made him embarrassed to play with the others..."

"How about we just act like we didn’t see him and wait to see if he greets us?" Boss Ning suggested after some thought, still somewhat worried. "He won’t get angry, will he?"

No matter how profitable Boss Ning’s business was, it ultimately depended on having good sources. He certainly did not want to offend the actual decision-makers of those sources.

"Definitely not." Xiaohei was very sure. "He’s not that petty..."

"Big Secretary, do you know everything? How do you know so much about the origins of some businesses?" He Miao couldn’t help but ask Yan Fei, who was pointing around and discussing different enterprises with such clarity.

When they set off, they talked about splitting into groups, but except for a few individuals like someone with the surname Yan, they were all considered adults and naturally wouldn’t line up like schoolchildren. As soon as they got off the bus at the fair, they formed spontaneous small squads and scattered in all directions, as long as they kept in mind the time to regather.
