Ju Qingmeng chuckled, "Sure."
Wang Zhaofu was dumbfounded.
Is this still the Ju manager I know?
Do they both have three legs or something!
...
In the private room of the Sleepless Nights bar that had just opened, the two, who felt like old friends meeting again, toasted and enjoyed a hearty meal with synthetic food.
Ren Zhong said, "Boss Wang, let me be straight with you. Check out this gear Iām wearing. Iāll be swapping it out soon, and then Iāll need to find a good buyer. Today I went to the mall just to discuss this with Manager Ju."
Wang Zhaofu thumped his chest like a drum, "You donāt need to find anyone else, just come to me! Iām a professional!"
Ren Zhong: "Alright, hereās the modification record. I spent a high price to have Manager Ju, a top student, personally handle it. Take a look."
"Wow! Not bad! Youāve almost upgraded this First Level exoskeleton to a Second Level! And the amplifierās parameters are expertly tuned. Amazing."
Ren Zhong sighed, "Yeah right? It cost me two to three thousand, but the professional teams in the small town arenāt interested, and ordinary Scavengers canāt afford it. Itās tough, caught between a rock and a hard place."
Wang Zhaofuās eyes twinkled, "How about I give you a fair offer, 1500, and Iāll take it off your hands later."
Ren Zhongās eyes also sparkled, "1800."
"Thatās more expensive than a Second Level exoskeleton!"
"But it allows a First Level warrior to perform at a Second Level in certain situations. Special items have special uses; you canāt compare it that way."
Wang Zhaofu gritted his teeth and calculated his profit, "Deal!"
Then the shrewd businessman Ren Zhong wrote another list, "Just right, thereās one more thing I want to bring up. A whole month later, Iāll need these items, see if you can get them and name your price."
Wang Zhaofu glanced, "Armed Qingfeng Heavy Truck, eight biological metal bearings, fission beast tendons, and Eiman beast armor alloy. Uh, these are all rare items. I can get them, but theyāre a bit expensive."
Ren Zhong squinted his eyes, "How much will it cost?"
Fatty Wangās moustache twitched, and he bit his lip, "Seventeen thousand."
Ren Zhong calculated with his fingers, it was 555 lower than the previous actual transaction price.
Mr. Wang was quite generous.
But times have changed; this time, he placed the order earlier, giving Fatty Wang more time to slowly gather them, plus the help of Ju Qingmengās connections.
Ren Zhong knew his psychological bottom price would definitely be lower.
Ren Zhong tentatively bargained, "Fifteen thousand, thatās all I can manage."
Wang Zhaofu continued to do the math, tormented and conflicted, his expression constantly changing.
After a while, he finally agreed, "Alright."
Ren Zhong observed his expression, feeling that this slash should have hit the otherās main artery, almost squeezing out the profit.
"Thank you for your trouble."
Fatty Wangās heart bled, but his face was still smiling, his hands nervously twisting together, "Thereās one more thing Iām quite embarrassed about."
"What is it?"
"I really appreciate you looking after my business, Brother Ren, but Iām in small business after all, and these goods are quite valuable, so upfront costs are needed, this..."
Ren Zhong feigned realization, "Deposit? Sure, how much do you need?"
Wang Zhaofu cautiously asked, "Two... two thousand?"
Ren Zhong shook his head directly, "Two thousand wouldnāt do."
"Ah this... uh..."
Ren Zhong raised his hand and patted Fatty Wangās shoulder, "For a fifteen thousand deal, two thousand is too meager, I donāt want to make things difficult for you. Iāll give you four thousand."
Wang Zhaofuās eyes widened.
Heād traveled far and wide...
This was unparalleled trust!
Fatty Wang grasped Ren Zhongās hand tightly, moved, "Brother Ren! Iām so lucky to know you in this life!"
Ren Zhong "emotionally" gripped back his hand, "Brother Wang! Youāre too kind!"
"Brother Ren!"
"Brother Wang!"
The atmosphere at the table changed suddenly.
The two chatted about various things for a long time.
With the conversation flowing, Wang Zhaofu recalled the hardships and sweetness of the past few years, the various encounters and strange tales of his hustle.
Ren Zhong, knowing all about those stories, transformed into the perfect sidekick.
Brother Wang almost betrayed his merchant nature, instantly considering Ren Zhong as his lifelong confidant.
If it werenāt so outdated, heād be eager to form a blood brother bond with Ren Zhong on the spot.
After a long while, satiated and satisfied, Ren Zhong saw it was time, and got up to say his farewell.
Wang Zhaofu, silently bleeding from the neck from Ren Zhongās cut, reluctantly escorted Ren Zhong out of Sleepless Nights, "Brother Ren, be careful on the way, and be cautious while hunting."
"Brother Wang, donāt worry, I know what Iām doing."
"Alright, see you."
"Goodbye."
Ren Zhongās move was not just about saving money.
His real target wasnāt money, but Fatty Wang himself.
By deepening the relationship now, he could later have Wangās help in getting more underground market goods that are inconvenient to acquire publicly.
The Information Flow Interference Bomb wasnāt Ren Zhongās ultimate goal this time.
...
Starfire Townās astonishing major fraud case, with one more victim.
Except for Zheng Tian, everyone else was nearly wiped out.
