Chapter 1144 - 1144: Better I Betray the World

After listening to Du Feixiang's words, Xiao Feng pondered for a moment and asked, "Is this friend of yours a local from Jiangcheng?"

"He left Jiangcheng, but he didn't grow his wealth there. I haven't been in touch with him for many years."

At this moment, Xiao Feng was more than ninety percent certain that there was a conspiracy behind this matter.

First, asking for five thousand Original Heart Pills right off the bat, it's unlikely they are for giving as gifts.

Secondly, usually, buying in bulk means a lower price, but the other party said they are willing to pay above market price, which is another anomaly.

The next thing to consider is, why does the other party want so many Original Heart Pills?

To hoard them?

Or perhaps to change the brand and sell at a higher price?

Xiao Feng thought this is not impossible, after all, the territory of Huaxia is vast, and Jiangcheng on the map is just a few pixels.

The other party could completely go to a place far from Jiangcheng, and sell the goods at a higher price than their purchase price here.

In essence, this is equivalent to having a lower-level agent of my own.

No, there's another possibility...

Xiao Feng directly asked, "Are you sure your friend really exists?"

"You think I'd lie to you? How about I give you his number and you talk to him directly?" Du Feixiang seemed a bit angry.

Xiao Feng thought for a moment, then replied, "No need, I just asked casually. Let's get to business.

Originally, Original Heart Pills were limited purchase, but since it's you asking, I can't not give face.

You tell that friend, cash on delivery, no credit."

Du Feixiang asked, "And the price? You name a number so I can report back to him.

Also, the delivery time, can you roughly estimate how long it will take?"

"Tell him that because the quantity he wants is too large, it's affecting my normal operations, so the price per Original Heart Pill is five hundred above the market price.

That is, three thousand per pill, a total of fifteen million.

As for the delivery time, if he's in a hurry, I can deliver in three days."

Du Feixiang was silent for a moment and said, "Five hundred more per pill is a bit too much. If you insist on adding five hundred, I suggest you say the delivery time is half a month.

After all, you're saying it affects your normal business, but you also say you can deliver in three days, which makes people suspect you're maliciously raising the price."

"If he says that, just plainly tell him, if it weren't for your sake, I wouldn't sell to him at all," Xiao Feng resolutely said, "Tell him what I said, take it or leave it!"

"This… alright!" Du Feixiang agreed and hung up the phone.

Behind him, Du Qingyun asked, "Did Xiao Feng agree?"

"He did." Du Feixiang sighed softly, "Qingyue really married the right person. Honestly, I'm a bit jealous."

Du Qingyun laughed, "Nothing to be jealous about. Just remember, no matter how you deal with Xiao Feng or Qingyue in the future, don't play tricks.

For someone like Xiao Feng, if you betray him once, it's almost impossible to regain his trust."

"I will remember!" Du Feixiang solemnly responded.

Du Qingyun waved his hand, "Alright, go talk to your friend."

"Yes!" Du Feixiang responded and quickly walked out of the room.

After a long while, sitting in the Master's Chair, Du Qingyun suddenly burst into a series of laughter.

When he stopped laughing, he muttered to himself, "A moment of glory is not true glory. Only those who can laugh at the end are the real winners.

The word 'destiny' is indeed magical and impermanent.

They all say I have a spendthrift son, but who would have thought that it was precisely my incompetent son that brought the Du Family to where it is today?"

In truth, there's nothing wrong with this statement.

After all, without Du Zhixiang, there wouldn't be Du Qingyue, and without Du Qingyue, there wouldn't be Xiao Feng, the Du Family's greatest support today.

Another reason that brought such joy to Du Qingyun is that previously, the Du Family has been reaping benefits following Xiao Feng. This time they finally have the chance to help Xiao Feng.

Fifteen million is not much, but it is no small amount either. If a big favor can't be offered, a small one surely can.

Thinking of this, Du Qingyun couldn't help but laugh again.

However, if Xiao Feng knew about this perspective, he would probably feel speechless.

Indeed, old man Du Qingyun and Du Feixiang both have good intentions.

But who says good intentions can't cause harm?

...

In the small courtyard of Jinyue Garden villa.

Xiao Feng paced back and forth in the yard, lost in thought.

In fact, another possibility he had thought of earlier was that the Du Family wanted to get involved in the Original Heart Pill business but was embarrassed to ask directly.

So, they thought of buying the goods from me at a high price and then selling them in places far from Jiangcheng.

Of course, Xiao Feng did not confine his suspicions solely to Du Feixiang and Du Qingyun.

The Du Family is not limited to these two, and there are plenty of people who might have such cunning ideas.

For example, Du Linlang, if this idea were from her, Xiao Feng would have no doubt at all.

Who is Du Linlang?

Someone who could perform a skit in front of him, what couldn't she accomplish?

"Whoever you are, I'll trick you first!" Xiao Feng suddenly said, a smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.

At this moment, he somewhat understood Cao Cao's mindset of "I'd rather wrong the world than have the world wrong me."

From Xiao Feng's perspective, it doesn't matter if you really want to trick me, I'll trick you first to make sure!

As for how to trick...

Xiao Feng directly called his apprentice, asking him to get three thousand fake Original Heart Pills from the last seizure at the Five Rings garbage disposal plant.

Before Di Junxiong could agree, Xiao Feng increased the number to four thousand.

After all, the cost of a thousand genuine pills is also a million, every penny saved counts.

Di Junxiong hardly hesitated before agreeing.

Because the quantity of fake Original Heart Pills is indeed too large, losing four thousand doesn't matter much.

And Xiao Feng had already decided that as long as Du Feixiang agrees, he would sell the Original Heart Pills half genuine… ahem, more like one-fifth genuine, four-fifths fake.

...

The winter daylight is always so brief.

Bai Huanyu and his son Bai Tieniu watched the sunset together in the small courtyard, each harboring different thoughts.

After a long while, Bai Huanyu was the first to break the silence and asked, "Has there been a reply from Xiao Feng?"

"Yes." Bai Tieniu nodded and replied, "Each pill is five hundred more, five thousand pills, for that, he needs fifteen million."

"Should we buy?"

"Of course we buy, it's only five hundred, I thought he would raise it by a thousand."

After another silence, Bai Huanyu asked, "Did you find out who is behind Ye Kuto?"

While asking this, Bai Huanyu's tone and expression were clearly somewhat unnatural.

This is enough to prove indirectly how skilled Ye Kuto is at cursing, it's not easy to affect someone as experienced with "father-son bonding" as Bai Huanyu.
