“You’re willing to pay more money for them?” Wang Haifeng was amazed by
Feng Jun’s tone. “What exactly do you want to do?”
“To open a mine!” Feng Jun seemed serious.
Wang Haifeng sized up Feng Jun. He then sighed, “You’ve changed.”
“Don’t be emotional. People change over time,” said Feng Jun. “Do your best to help me, and I won’t blame you if you fail.”
Wang Haifeng remained silent for a while, then his eyes lit up. “Why don’t you turn to Xia Xiaoyu for help? She has a relative who serves in the military, and she might help you get what you want.”
“Really?” Feng Jun was excited too.
Wang Haifeng said, “You need to talk about that with her.”
Feng Jun thought for a long while. He then said, “Forget it, I need your help
In fact, he wasn’t sure whether bullets were useful.
Anyway, he had no intention to fight against the orangutan or hedgehog face to face. In that case, explosives would be enough.
Feng Jun was adventurous, and he was willing to take risks.
Wang Haifeng gave him a glance again. He then nodded with a smile. “No problem. Oh, isn’t your family in a small county? I think it should be easier to get explosives there.”
Feng Jun glared at him. “I can’t let my parents know about it.”
Wang Haifeng was mad. “How about my family?”
“Are you dumb?” Feng Jun looked at him as if he was an idiot. “Zhengyang City is much bigger than a county after all.”
After having the meal, Feng Jun went to buy a luxurious bag for Mrs. Wang. He then hired a small truck to move his packages to the remote villa.
When he was back again, it was nearly 5 pm, so he went to buy food and drink in a supermarket.
Mrs. Wang’s birthday party was held at a fancy hotel, and her family booked a large private room for her close friends and relatives.
Feng Jun was Wang Haifeng’s friend, and Wang Haifeng only invited three of his friends today. The other two were both his schoolmates. One was Li Qjang, while the other was Zhang Wei.
Although they had ordinary names, their appearances were extraordinary and attracted much attention from other guests in the room.
Many female guests kept glancing at them.
From Wang Haifeng’s introduction, Feng Jun learned that Li Qiang’s family was involved in business whereas he himself worked in the TV station of Zhengyang City. Zhang Wei’s family was involved in politics and he himself worked as a broker-dealer.
When Li Qiang and Zhang Wei met Feng Jun, they were slightly arrogant, because Feng Jun wasn’t a local citizen.
Besides, he used to work in Hongjie Fitness Club, which wasn’t a high-end workplace.
Li Qiang was born in a business family, so he was good at socializing with different people.
Feng Jun was Wang Haifeng’s friend after all, and he knew no one else in the room.
Compared with Li Qiang, Zhang Wei ignored Feng Jun and kept on talking with Mrs. Wang’s female friends.
Feng Jun actually didn’t mind it because he came for Wang Haifeng and Mrs.
However, in half an hour, the situation changed rapidly.
Mrs. Wang came to propose a toast by their table and thanked them for attending her birthday party. When she saw Feng Jun, she smiled and said, “Thankyou so much for your gift. I went to HK last time and liked the handbag after a glance, but only a sample was left there. I didn’t know it’s available in Zhengyang City.”
Mrs. Wang had perfect manners.
Although she wasn’t very beautiful and was a jealous wife, she was very pleasant to get along with as a friend.
Feng Jun smiled and said nothing.
When Mrs. Wang was gone, Zhang Wei couldn’t stay calm. He knew that Mrs.
Wang had a rich family.
If she thanked Feng Jun on purpose, it meant that Feng Jun’s gift was very special.
Actually, he had prepared a gift for Mrs. Wang too, which cost him over a thousand yuan.
Therefore, he was very curious about the gift Feng Jun had prepared for Mrs. Wang. “Hey, Feng Jun, what handbag did you buy for Mrs. Wang?
Feng Jun gave him a glance. He then said, “Chanel.
A simple word indicated everything.
Zhang Wei stood up at once and clinked his glass against Feng Jun s. Come on, let’s have a toast for our first meeting.”
Feng Jun smiled and agreed.
He didn’t care about why Zhang Wei changed his attitude towards him all of a sudden. Anyway, they were destined not to have any interaction once they walked out of this hotel.
In fact, Zhang Wei wouldn’t change his attitude towards Feng Jun just because of a luxurious handbag.
He wanted to know what Feng Jun did.
Feng Jun told him the same answer he had said to Wang Haifeng. “Well, to open a mine.”
“What mine?” Zhang Wei’s eyes lit up.
“Well…” Feng Jun had no intention to answer that question because they weren’t close at all.
Zhang Wei didn’t mind it because he knew it wasn’t something they could talk about in public.
Moreover, his aim was to figure out whether Feng Jun had extra money. He worked as a broker-dealer after all, and he had a task to get new clients. Although he had a powerful family and it wasn’t difficult for him to do that, he had pride in himself and wanted to finish the task on his own.
If Feng Jun really had a mine, he should have a large amount of cash to run the business.
That was the real reason why Zhang Wei suddenly changed his attitude towards Feng Jun.
Nevertheless, Feng Jun was unwilling to be close to him.
“What do you ask me for details?” asked Feng Jun.
He tried to keep a distance away from Zhang Wei.
“Well, you know I work in a broker-dealer, and I need to get several new clients this month. If you have some money you don’t need to use for the time being, why don’t you open an account at my workplace?” said Zhang Wei.
Feng Jun immediately realized what he wanted to do.
He thought for a long while before saying, ” I don’t have much money with me right now, but I can store five hundred thousand yuan at your workplace.
Feng Jun was unwilling to be honest with Zhang Wei.
Zhang Wei beamed. “Thanks!”
Five hundred thousand yuan wasn’t much in Zhang Wei’s eyes, but it was better than nothing.
Besides, he believed that Feng Jun was hiding his real wealth.
Anyway, not many people trust security nowadays.
It was difficult to develop new clients.
Zhang Wei himself actually wouldn’t invest too much money in stock either.
He couldn’t force Feng Jun to give him more money in case Feng Jun was mad at him.
Seeing Zhang Wei’s satisfied face, Feng Jun relaxed a little.
It was easy to satisfy this man.
After that, he seized this chance and said, “I need more explosives for a new mine. If it’s possible, can you do me a favor?
“I have partners, and they’re all richer than me. I can persuade them to open an account at your workplace too.”
Hearing that, Zhang Wei smiled. “I’ve never touched explosives before, but I can help you ask for them.”
Although he said that, his expression showed much confidence.
