Reborn in 2000: Reuniting with the School Belle

Chapter 133

“If Shengde goes under, wouldn’t that market share become President Feng’s?” Yi Feng asked, blowing a smoke ring and smiling.

Feng Ze’s face showed interest; if Yi Feng’s methods were applied, there indeed was a chance to take down Shengde Company.

“Not bad, Brother Yi’s approach is indeed feasible. I think it’s time to remove this scourge!”

“What’s more important is that they dared to deceive you. I will definitely help you take revenge!” Feng Ze spoke righteously.

“Ah, I’m truly grateful for President Feng’s righteous action,” Yi Feng feigned emotion.

“Where, where, it’s what I should do!”

“President Feng is such a good person!”

After exchanging pleasantries, the tea room was filled with hundreds of thoughts among four people.

Having discussed serious matters, Yi Feng changed the subject to something lighter, like fishing, a hobby of his.

Yi Feng didn’t know much about fishing but took the opportunity to learn from Feng Ze.

When it came to fishing, Feng Ze became animated, talking non-stop and happily.

Yi Feng simply listened, occasionally giving compliments, which made Feng Ze very happy.

Sometimes, talking about a topic of interest to the other party and letting them enjoy the conversation is a good way to communicate.

The four of them talked over tea for more than an hour, creating a warm atmosphere.

Feng Ze, having talked until he was parched, took a sip of tea and then asked, “By the way, Brother Yi, how is the preparation for your chain stores going?”

“We are currently selecting locations, planning for 1 repair center and 5 stores, but we’re short-staffed, so it’s not going very fast,” Yi Feng replied vaguely, not specifying how far along the preparations were.

Feng Ze raised his eyebrows, surprised at the rapid development of Xifeng Electronics.

“If you encounter any problems, Brother Yi, feel free to speak up. If it’s a matter of funds, I can invest a hundred or two hundred thousand.”

Feng Ze was hinting at his intention to invest in the company.

Yi Feng, understanding the hint, pretended not to catch it, gratefully responding, “President Feng is truly generous. It’s my honor to have a friend like you.”

He did not directly answer Feng Ze’s question nor did he express any stance on considering the investment.

After some more conversation, Yi Feng stood up to leave, declining Feng Ze’s invitation for dinner with an excuse.

After leaving Nanqiao Commerce, Yi Feng’s smile vanished as he quickly walked to the elevator.

Wang Tie excitedly said, “Brother Feng, that President Feng is really awesome, very loyal and righteous!”

“Such people are worth befriending!”

Yi Feng looked back to ensure no one else was around and asked in a low voice, “You think he’s a good person?”

“Yes, President Feng seems really nice!” Wang Tie replied, somewhat puzzled.

“Wang Tie, let me teach you something. In business, there are only interests, no emotions.”

“Do you think he’s being righteous, wanting to stand up for us?”

“If I hadn’t mentioned that I could handle Shengde’s business, allowing him to take over Shengde’s market, would he have agreed so readily?”

“He’s just after those benefits; there’s no such thing as righteousness,” Yi Feng said calmly.

Hearing this, Wang Tie felt as if he had been struck by lightning, everything suddenly became clear.

“So that’s how it is… I understand now, Brother Feng!” Wang Tie scratched his head, embarrassed by his naive comments earlier.

“Good, as long as you understand. Let’s go back,” Yi Feng said with a smile.

The elevator doors opened, and the two stepped inside.

…

“Brother Ze, what play does Yi Feng want you to perform?” Lan Caiyi asked as she cleaned up the tea room.

Feng Ze, smoking a cigarette, narrowed his eyes, “Set up a contract trap for Shengde Company, a setup.”

“Once Shengde breaches the contract… they might as well declare bankruptcy.”

Lan Caiyi gasped, “That harsh?”

She hadn’t expected Yi Feng to actually intend to take down Shengde Company.

Such a vengeful and ruthless approach!

“Isn’t it good to be a bit harsh? If Shengde is gone, our parts shipments might double,” Feng Ze said with a light laugh.

Lan Caiyi nodded, understanding that Shengde’s fall would indeed reduce competition for Nanqiao Commerce, significantly increasing their profits.

“Brother Ze, do you think he can take down Shengde’s current business? What methods will he use?” Lan Caiyi asked, puzzled.

“I can’t guess, but… given Yi Feng’s character, his methods are likely to be direct and swift.”

“We’ll just have to wait and see,” Feng Ze said, blowing a smoke ring.

“But… when I mentioned the intention to invest in Xifeng Electronics, did he not catch my drift?” Feng Ze narrowed his eyes, his expression darkening.

“Or did he pretend not to understand?”

Lan Caiyi hesitated for a moment before whispering, “Maybe… maybe he didn’t understand.”

After pondering, Feng Ze said, “Is that so? Next time, I’ll invite him for a meal and bring it up again.”

“I believe he’s a smart man; he shouldn’t reject my offer, right?”
