103: Chapter One Hundred and Three

Wang Cheng told Wang Ning'an everything over the phone. In big cities, such unfair competition methods emerged endlessly. However, Wang Ning’an wouldn’t allow it to happen to his family. He told Wang Cheng that he would solve it, and asked for the businessman's name, telling him to wait for his call.

Wang Ning'an still had a reputation in the pharmaceutical industry, especially since Shanhai City was once his base camp. He dared not add another 10%, but Wang Ning’an knew at least 80% of the medicinal plant dealers. Now he was transferred to the headquarters in the Imperial Capital. For people with unlimited prospects, such a trivial matter only needed one word and someone would rush to help him.

Although Wang Cheng had expected it, it still came as a surprise to him that his elder brother would be so fast. Two people came to the door the next morning.

The leader was a man in his thirties with a mustache, bright eyes, an energetic look, and a very respectful attitude. The young man behind him was his assistant, wearing round, big glasses that made him look slightly unreliable.

"Hello, my name is Che Fan. I am a Chinese medicinal businessman. I heard from Mr. Wang that you have a batch of wild herbs to sell here. I want to take a look at that batch of herbs. If I’m disturbing you, please forgive me." The man had a very sincere attitude.

"The Mr. Wang you mentioned is my elder brother, Wang Ning'an. Did he call you over?" Wang Cheng needed to determine his identity first.

"Yes, Mr. Wang called me last night and asked me if I was interested in wild herbs. As we all know, many wild herbs have better effects than those grown in greenhouses, so I am very interested. Mr. Wang gave me an address leading here. If you want to sell, please give me a chance. "

Che Fan's research on medicinal plants was more advanced than that of Papa Wang’s. After getting data, he concluded that the effects of these medicinal plants were better than ordinary medicinal plants, and the price must be increased by about one third. He expressed his willingness to buy all the medicinal plants.

With Wang Ning'an as the trustworthy middleman, Papa Wang and Mama Wang no longer worried about whether the other party was lying to them. Che Fan was so refreshing, they no longer hesitated. After taking Che Fan to the place where the herbs were placed, and seeing all the herbs, and after going around the north mountain and letting him see the situation in the north mountain, they signed the contract that morning.

Completing this matter, Wang Cheng felt much more relaxed. He went to the shop the next day and greeted an unexpected person in the morning. He was not nervous.

"How did you find this place?" Wang Cheng poured a glass of water for Chu Yifeng. Fortunately, Papa Wang and Mama Wang did not come. If he was seen, he wouldn’t know how to explain it. He couldn’t say that the boss specifically came to see him.

"Asked someone." Chu Yifeng was sitting on the sofa that Papa Wang often sat in. Wang Cheng wouldn’t find him, so he could only come by himself.

"Whether Chengping is big or small, this can still be asked by you." Wang Cheng admired him so much, he ran over without saying a word.

"Your family is also very famous in Chengping." Chu Yifeng glanced at him with a faint smile. He remembered that when he asked for directions, he just said the word Wang, and the girl asked him if he meant the shop owner Wang Cheng. The handsome guy responded with something like ‘idiot’ before she showed him the way.

Wang Cheng immediately thought of the group of three aunts and six wives who always liked to use him as gossip. Even if they were not in the Guan’s Village, the three aunts and six wives were everywhere. "They’re all compliments from others."

[T/N: ‘Three aunts and six wives’ is just a phrase for a group of gossiping women. It came up earlier, but I usually replaced it with something similar.]

"I think you are enjoying it."

"With which eye do you see that?"

"You are in a good mood today," Chu Yifeng pointed out.

"I am in a good mood today. It is not because of this, but because my family resolved a problem yesterday. An acquaintance my dad knew wanted to discredit my family's medicinal plants. We still had my elder brother, so he asked for help. We resolved the matter, and the medicinal plants accumulated in my family were sold, my dad’s wish finally relieved.”

"Why didn’t you tell me about this?" Chu Yifeng frowned.

"Isn't that nonsense? My elder brother works in a pharmaceutical company, and he is more legitimate than you. If I use your help, I’d have to explain it to my parents." Wang Cheng would not tell him that he didn’t even think about asking him for help.

He thought he heard the sound of a horn outside. However, the horn was not very loud in downtown, but because it was at the door of Wang Cheng's shop, he subconsciously looked out. He saw the acquaintance Mr. Zheng, who had bought his jam last night. He called and said he wanted to come and get the rest of the jam, but Wang Cheng thought he would come back in the afternoon, not expecting him to come in the morning.

Zheng Jingen was wearing sunglasses, and he took them off after getting out of the passenger seat, taking off the sunglasses he wore. His handsome appearance immediately attracted people passing by to look at him secretly. However, it seemed as if he had become accustomed to this kind of sight. The driver in the driver's seat did not come down. Zheng Jingen stepped up two stairs going into the Wang family jam shop and was about to speak, but his eyes narrowed suddenly when he saw Chu Yifeng.

‘It's him?’

"Mr. Zheng, you came early. The jam is in the backroom, I’ll move it out. You sit for a while, and I'll get it done soon." Wang Cheng also exhorted Chu Yifeng when he passed by him.

This move did not escape Zheng Jingen's eyes. Seeing their intimate actions, his brow wrinkled unnoticeably.

"I didn't expect to see Mr. Chu in such a small rural place. You have long been famous. Did you come to buy jam?"

Chu Yifeng's hand rested on the armrest of the sofa, looking back at him casually, “The dignified Young Master Zheng would also run so far to buy jam, is there no jam in other places?"

"Of course there are, but those jams are not as delicious as those from the Wang family. People like you and me who are accustomed to the delicacies of mountains and seas, occasionally have to try something simple, don’t you think?"

Zheng Jingen and Chu Yifeng’s age were within the same range, and they also practiced themselves to be smiling tigers. Naturally, Chu Yifeng would not get angry because of his sentence. However, he was not sure why Chu Yifeng appeared here. Although he investigated Wang Cheng, because the Wang family’s village was no longer there, and the people in the Guan’s village didn’t know about Wang Cheng's situation, he hadn’t found that Wang Cheng used to work in Huaying Real Estate.

When Wang Cheng came out, the two didn't talk again.

Chu Yifeng naturally walked over to move the jam with him. Wang Cheng did not refuse. He didn't know that the two knew each other, and spoke to Chu Yifeng in a low voice. This was an unusual sight for Zheng Jingen. In addition, their degree of acquaintance was far more intimate than he thought, but he didn’t understand. How could a person like Chu Yifeng be so good to Wang Cheng?

After moving all the jams, Wang Cheng did not even show a drop of sweat on his forehead. He said to Zheng Jingen, "Mr. Zheng, please take a look. There are a total of forty-five groups in your car."

"No, I believe you," Zheng Jingen said.

Wang Cheng liked his refreshingness, especially when the jam had not been given to him yet, but he had paid him in full, as if he didn’t worry that he would be cheated. That feeling of being trusted was always good. "If you don't mind, Mr. Zheng can sit with me and wait for a while. "

"Then I'll bother you." Zheng Jingen was waiting for these words.

Chu Yifeng glanced at him, and it was estimated that only the two of them knew what that meant.

"Wang Cheng, are you friends with Mr. Chu?"

Wang Cheng heard these words, he said in surprise, "Mr. Zheng knows Boss Chu?"

"How could I not hear of Mr. Chu? My family is also in the Imperial Capital, and I have had some connections with Mr. Chu." Zheng Jingen said, none of his words false. The two knew each other, but had almost no past. However, his words indicated that Chu Yifeng’s identity was not so simple. There was a faint reminder that Wang Cheng should be careful when dealing with people like Chu Yifeng. Wang Cheng had long known that Chu Yifeng’s identity was better and more complicated than he thought.

"Anyway, it’s fate to meet an acquaintance here." Wang Cheng looked at them and laughed.

"It's pretty destined."

Chu Yifeng's face was pale, and Zheng Jingen knew that he didn't believe what he said. He never believed he could lie to Chu Yifeng. He and Chu Yifeng could be regarded as the same kind of people, both their minds and the city were extremely deep. Zheng's family secrets should not be because of him.

Zheng Jingen couldn't stay too long. Although he really wanted to stay, he was not Chu Yifeng after all. He was just an ordinary customer of the shop owner Wang Cheng. Soon he left.

"How did you meet him?" Chu Yifeng watched the car leave, and turned to ask Wang Cheng, who was packing the table.

Wang Cheng didn't look up. "He came to the shop to buy jams a few days ago, and said that an acquaintance introduced him to my jam. Later, he asked me to take him to the packaging factory to see the production line. Then he asked me for hundreds of jams. There aren't many jams in the warehouse right now because of him. "

"Do you believe it?"

Wang Cheng tied the bag in the trash can, and then mentioned that he would put it at the door. In the afternoon, someone who specifically collected garbage would drag their car over. He went to the toilet to wash his hands before returning: "I was originally doubtful, but it doesn't matter now. Don’t you know him? It is impossible for a rich and powerful person to plot something against my family, let alone that I can feel that he is not malicious. That is enough.”

"You are so accepting." Chu Yifeng chuckled with his arms crossed.

"That is, don't look at who it is, you can never find another such accepting person. This is the blessing you have cultivated in your third life. You must be better to me in the future, or you will regret it after I run away." This was Wang Cheng's biggest ‘advantage’.
