"Master, Ye Fan said he doesn't want money, he just wants rice."
In the Zhao family, Prime Minister Turtle naturally came to see the Dragon King. Dai Laoba came in a hurry, which surprised Zhao Deming in the middle of the night.
"He just asked me to give him rice. I made an excuse and said I would give it to him tomorrow morning."
"Master, what should I do? I have already said that I will collect all the rice, but Ye Fan is not a good person to get along with. If I can't hand it over tomorrow morning, I'm afraid he won't let me go..."
In the hall, looking at Dai Laoba with an anxious expression, Zhao Deming also frowned.
"This Ye Fan, he doesn't want money, he just wants rice?" After saying this, Zhao Deming's expression became slightly ugly, "What does he want to do?"
"Master, I think he may know something." Dai Laoba opened his mouth and said quickly: "His Ye family has always regarded the dynasty organization as a thorn in their flesh. They only eradicated the dynasty organization in Pingcheng some time ago. He probably knows about the longevity of Yuncheng.
It’s about the cloud.”
"Do you know about Chang Sheng Yun?" Zhao Deming asked, with a thoughtful expression on his face.
Even though he is a fat-bellied person who seems to be incompetent, the fact that the Zhao family can become the most financially powerful family in Yuncheng, and that he is the head of the Zhao family, is enough to explain a lot of things.
"Go, get ready. I will visit this boy personally tomorrow morning."
After thinking for a while, Zhao Deming spoke.
"Go in person?" Hearing this, Dai Laoba was stunned, and then he hesitated: "Master, the dynasty organization is very dissatisfied with you now. The Zhao family has a protective formation and they can't do anything to you. If you go out
…”
"I, Zhao Deming, can't stay in this turtle shell all my life. If I go out occasionally, I don't believe they dare to do something to me."
Zhao Deming shook his head, his eyes a little deep, "Although this Ye Fan is a foreigner, his background is extraordinary after all."
"I need to know if he is here for the Immortal Cloud, or if he just wants to disrupt the dynasty organization's plans."
"If it's the latter, it's fine. We have no conflict of interest and can even cooperate. But if it's the former..."
"Then we are enemies."
…
The next day, before the mercenary group opened its doors, Zhao Deming had already paid a visit, brought many gifts with his entourage, and was waiting at the door of the mercenary group.
Mercenary Street is also a bit lively. After all, it is Zhao Bapi. For him to come so respectfully, Ye Fan is considered to be the first.
"Boss, what do you think Zhao Bapi is doing, this early in the morning?" A hunter from the Lone Wolf Mercenary Group, next to Zhang Da, who had a quarrel with Dai Laoba yesterday, said curiously, "He wants to curry favor with Ye Fan."
?”
"Flattery? Then you think Zhao Bapi is too good." Zhang Da replied and snorted, "Zhao Deming, that bastard, only has money in his eyes. He came to visit Ye Fan because he thought Ye Fan was blocking his way to make money.
, and I can’t afford to offend him, so I want to reconcile.”
"How can Ye Fan block his way of making money?" The hunter was puzzled. "A businessman and a mercenary group are two different things."
"That's what you think you can't hit with eight poles. Haven't you heard that in the Liushui Mercenary Group, Ye Fan and the Zhao family both issued announcements about receiving rice. They are probably fighting over something." Zhang Da replied, shaking his head.
, "These characters are not simple. They look like harvesting rice. I guess there should be some other actions."
"That's it." The hunter nodded, seeming to be thinking, "Then, which side are we on?"
"Which side are you on?" Hearing this, Zhang Da rolled his eyes at the hunter, "What size he is, what size we are, and which side we are on have no impact on the outcome of the fight, but it affects us casually.
We all can’t bear it.”
"People must be self-aware. I'm not a fool like Dai Laoba. I want to get some profit from everything. When the time comes, I don't know how I will die!"
"We are just ordinary people. We hunt more, earn more money, and go home to spend time with our wives and children. This is the most important thing to do."
"Oh." After hearing this, the hunter seemed to understand a little. He paused for a while and then suddenly said, "But what should I do if I don't even have a wife?"
"What can I do without a wife..." Zhang Da choked after hearing this, and after a while he recovered, and then a violent bullet hit the mercenary's head, "You don't even have a wife, how can you still think about saying this here!!
?”
"Hurry up and pack your things and go hunting. I'll make some money and put on a better outfit, so I can go find my wife! I'm twenty-one in real life and twenty-two in disguise. I don't care about twenty-three and twenty-four."
, why do you care so blindly about this!"
…
After not much time, the mercenary group opened the door. Fatty Li, who was in charge of opening the door, yawned. When he opened the door, he was startled when he saw a lot of people in front of him.
"Good guys, what are you doing? Are you here to pray to God so early in the morning?"
When the voice came out, everyone outside looked a little unhappy. Zhao Deming was too lazy to speak to the fat man next to Ye Fan and winked. The housekeeper on the side quickly put on a smile and came closer.
"We are the Zhao family in Yuncheng. We have made a special trip to visit Captain Ye Fan. We have something important to discuss. Please help me take care of it, little brother."
"Zhao family?" Hearing this, Fatty Li raised his eyebrows, "Did you come so early..."
After muttering something, Fatty Li didn't waste any time and turned to call Ye Fan. After a while, Chen Peng came out.
"Master Zhao, Captain Ye Fan asked you to go in and talk."
"Okay." After hearing this, Zhao Deming responded, with some dissatisfaction in his eyes.
Even if he doesn't come out when he hears the visit, let his subordinates notify him to go in. What a big show of pretension!
Shaking his hands, Zhao Deming entered the mercenary group. At a glance, he saw Ye Fan sitting there. His expression changed very quickly, and there was a smile.
"Ye Shaoguo is really as majestic and talented as the rumors say!"
"Master Zhao, you're welcome." Ye Fan held his hands and did not stand up, but just said: "Please sit down."
This subtle move immediately made Zhao Deming's dissatisfaction accumulate again.
But he was a businessman after all, and he had seen those dandies who behaved arrogantly. Zhao Deming just paused for a second and sat down with a smile on his face.
As soon as he sat down, Zhao Deming immediately raised his hands and said sincerely, with an expression that seemed to be annoyed:
"Master Ye, to be honest, I am here to apologize to Master Ye!"
"Apologise?" After hearing this, Ye Fan just raised his eyebrows, "Master Zhao, what are you guilty of?"
"It's about Mr. Ye harvesting rice." Zhao Deming spoke and sighed, "To be honest, the Zhao family is currently mining large mines in Yuncheng, recruiting tens of thousands of people, and consuming a lot of food and rice every day, so they have been
The Liushui Mercenary Group collects rice at a high price."
"Originally, the rice was enough, but I didn't expect Mr. Ye to harvest rice. Dai Laoba is also honest. The one with the highest price will get it. Let's help Mr. Ye collect the rice first. My Zhao family's rice was not collected. Yesterday, the rice suddenly ran out. I had no choice but to help Mr. Ye harvest the rice.
I can only take the rice that originally belonged to Mr. Ye from Dai Laoba."
"Zhao Deming had no intention of competing with Mr. Ye, but the incident happened suddenly and there was really no way to deal with it. I wanted to compensate Mr. Ye at a high price and hide the matter, but when Dai Laoba came yesterday, I realized that the fire could not be covered by paper."
"When this happened, I was so scared that I couldn't sleep all night, so early this morning, I made a special trip to prepare a generous gift to personally apologize to Mr. Ye!"
As he said that, the butler on the side was also very attentive, clapped his hands in time, and the servants carried the things up.
There were several large boxes of stuff. The boxes were opened and gold, silver and jewelry were placed in the mercenary group. For a moment, it was a bit dazzling.
Ye Fan didn't speak the whole time, just quietly watching the movements of this group of people.
This Zhao Deming is indeed a businessman. After a combination of punches, it seems that his posture is at the lowest level, but in fact it is just a sentence.
It was I who took your rice. I came to apologize to you because I had no choice but to do something for the workers of the Zhao family. You can't blame me. The rice is gone and there is nothing you can do about it.
This is not something that a person with no skills in speaking can say. If it were just Ye Fan himself, if it wasn't the thing behind the fight for rice, he would be let go.
"Forehead……"
Seeing that Ye Fan remained unmoved, Zhao Deming also felt something. However, he still had to bite the bullet and said: "Master Ye, please accept this apology."
"It must be collected. Since the head of the Zhao family has said that it is an apology, how can it be called an apology if it is not compensated?"
Ye Fan spoke at this time, looked at Zhao Deming in front of him, paused slightly, but slowly spoke.
"It's just that it's too small to make amends with just a few boxes of jewelry."
