Chapter 1731: Chapter 821: Gas Station Opening_3

But by mid-morning, they’d already sold tens of thousands, and Boss White started to worry. Could it be competitors deliberately coming to suppress business?

"Did you register all the license plates?" Yan Fei asked calmly. "I’m not afraid of losses, as long as no one is intentionally causing trouble."

"They’re registered..."

"I’ll go take a look."

For the opening, Yan Fei didn’t invite anyone, not even Wang Jiuming and the other seniors. He just gave them a heads-up, specifically telling them to stop by for gas, but no need to come to the opening. The location is too remote, and he didn’t plan to develop this gas station much; it wasn’t worth making them take the trip.

Still, they received quite a few flower baskets, mostly using the names of organizations—it’s a trend to display several flower baskets with organization names to avoid trouble. Although Yan Fei didn’t think there would be much trouble, it was a thoughtful gesture nonetheless, wasn’t it?

Moreover, setting off firecrackers definitely wasn’t suitable for a gas station opening. Boss White hired two lion dance teams to make some noise for a while. Then, they played firecracker sounds through speakers instead of real ones.

Checking the license plates in the finance office, Yan Fei couldn’t help but roll his eyes; the seniors were too generous. Are they taking advantage of the good deal or what? They’re quite willing to spend money!

Boss White explained from the side, "The first group came to deliver flower baskets; they bought quite a bit. But later, the passersby also bought a lot. Look, this one bought ten thousand worth..."

Yan Fei glanced at the license plate, "That’s the car from the steakhouse. Their driver comes around every few days to pick up some beef from me. Must be that foreign guy Will’s doing. Never mind him."

For the next few license plates, Yan Fei already understood without Boss White explaining, "These are probably regulars who run between Provincial City and Wan City. Looking at the plates, they’re from that area. It’s fine. They must have asked for the gas station’s name before buying, right?"

The young man sitting upfront handling the money was someone Yan Fei didn’t recognize; he was Boss White’s nephew. Upon hearing this, he laughed and said, "I told you it was fine. Uncle insisted on telling you, but they all confirmed Boss Yan’s name before they bought. Some even checked the business license..."

Yan Fei understood and walked over to pat Boss White’s shoulder, "You don’t have to be too cautious; all the business operations are in your hands. Just be honest, like I’ve always said, it doesn’t matter if we profit or not. In the end, you won’t face any losses. This is just for my convenience, so you don’t need to report everything to me later. Make the call on the small stuff yourself."

Boss White ran over to report not because he was genuinely worried about something going wrong, but because he feared if the business didn’t profit, he couldn’t explain it to Yan Fei. He was genuinely intimidated by Yan Fei, especially after seeing the banners from the flower baskets. He realized that Yan Fei wasn’t just some countryside boss; his network of connections was far superior.

Not long after, the Environmental Protection Bureau sent over a flower basket too, which was a wake-up call for Boss White—he had just said yesterday that the licenses couldn’t be processed, but today they not only got them, they even sent a flower basket.

A gap is still a gap; Boss Yan has a money-making enterprise that’s constantly watched by the higher-ups. Trying to build connections, Boss White’s abilities truly can’t compare.

Yan Fei originally planned to stay longer at the gas station, but before noon, a phone call came in.

He picked up the phone and started laughing, "Will, are you taking advantage of me? I just opened, and you’re having your driver buy a thousand-dollar gas ticket?"

"Don’t worry about those small things, my dear future great screenwriter, genius writer, I’ve got good news for you, our movie is about to be released!" On the other end, Will’s voice was trembling with excitement, as if he were singing an aria!
