Chapter 988: Give to God what is God’s and give to Caesar what is Caesar’s
Du Fei stood up, shook hands with Bush with a smile, and said a few polite words before sending him outside.
Bush did not come by car, but followed the locals and rode a black 28-inch bicycle.
Saying goodbye to each other, Du Fei watched him walk away, the smile on his face gradually disappearing.
Bush's appearance exceeded his expectations.
"The ghost is really lingering!" Du Fei muttered to himself.
But I feel a little helpless, as it is not yet fifty years from now.
At that time, flower cultivation was already capable of competing with the beautiful land.
But now the strength is still too weak.
Objectively speaking, no country on earth can ignore the attitude of the beautiful land.
If the Americans were determined to engage in pornographic transactions, Du Fei could hardly think of any effective countermeasures.
It wasn't until Bush's back disappeared outside the alley that Du Fei withdrew his gaze.
He looked at Zheng Qingchun and Wu Hongqi on the side and warned, "Keep what happened just now confidential."
The two nodded, and then Zheng Qingchun said, "Manager, this matter is not trivial. Should you report it to the superior immediately?"
Wu Hongqi also nodded in agreement.
Du Fei responded and walked back.
As for reporting to the superiors, Du Fei didn't need to be reminded. Du Fei picked up the phone and called Dad Zhu as soon as he returned to the office.
Du Fei knew that a reversal of the situation would definitely ruin Dad Zhu's good mood.
But there was no way, he had to say.
And he believed that with Dad Zhu's strong heart, this little thing would be nothing.
Sure enough, hearing the bad news did not cause any emotional fluctuations in Dad Zhu.
He responded in a normal tone, thought for a moment, and asked, "What are you going to do next?"
Du Fei said, "Dad, everything depends on people. I will not give up until the last moment."
After receiving this answer, Dad Zhu laughed, "Were you not frightened by that paper tiger? Yes, you just need to have this spirit."
On the phone, Dad Zhu was not too entangled in this matter.
For him, this was originally an unexpected surprise, and it is normal for things to change now.
Furthermore, although this money is important, it is not impossible to live without it.
Simply leave this matter to Du Fei.
Du Fei has proven his ability before, and Dad Zhu believes he can handle it.
Putting down the phone, Du Fei clenched his fists.
He could hear Dad Zhu's trust, and at the same time he was not willing to accept that the tens of millions he had received were just gone.
We have to find a way!
But he definitely can't do this on his own.
The sale is between two parties, and the interests are between three parties.
Thinking of this, Du Fei first called Zhu Ting, saying that he couldn't go back that night and asked her to go back to her parents' house.
Then I went out and got on my motorcycle and went straight to the guest house where Vincent was staying.
In the guest house room.
Seeing Du Fei suddenly come to see him, Vincent's heart skipped a beat, and he had a bad premonition.
If everything was normal, Du Fei would not come at this time.
Immediately afterwards, Du Fei's words made his heart sink to the bottom: "The Americans intervened..."
Vincent burst out with a classic British curse: "What the hell is going on with those damn things?"
Du Fei sat down and told him about Bush's visit just now.
Vincent was a little furious.
Of course he knows the Bush family and even drank with Bush at a cocktail party.
Be more aware of the Bush family's influence.
When I heard it was him, my heart dropped.
Du Fei saw it and thought to himself, don't be afraid! If you are afraid, what should I do?
He immediately said, "Brother, is it possible for you to check what's going on over there? I think there's something fishy about this."
Vincent was stunned for a moment, then suddenly cheered up and frowned, "What do you mean?"
Du Fei said, "They came to me directly about this matter, which is very fishy..."
Vincent was a smart man. After hearing Du Fei's reminder, his mind recovered and he frowned and remained silent.
Du Fei waited for him to think for a while and asked, "How about it? Can you find someone to ask about the situation?"
Vincent said, "There is indeed something wrong. This is not in line with the style of those beautiful guys..."
The main reason is that Du Fei's level is too low. Although he is a member of the fire equipment company, in the final analysis, he is just a professional.
If it was really the action over there, a higher level channel should be used.
This is also the only flaw Du Fei can think of.
can say that The last straw is to guess that Bush does not represent the good land, but a certain family or a certain force.
The task of verification fell on Vincent.
After the explanation, Du Fei left the guest house, and Vincent immediately took action.
However, in this case, both Dufy and Vincent tacitly agreed not to mention Henry Norman, let alone tell him.
According to the agreement between Du Fei and Vincent, Du Fei only needs to send the equipment to Xiangjiang, and how to transport it next is Vincent's business.
There are a lot of tricks here.
As long as Vincent doesn't make any money on shipping, and Henry is responsible for picking up and transporting the goods, no one else can blame him if someone intercepts him in the middle.
But doing so would damage your credibility.
No one is a fool. Even if you can't react at first, you can figure it out after reviewing and deducing.
Therefore, it is not a last resort, and you certainly cannot deceive customers like that.
In the evening, because Zhu Ting returned to her parents' home, Du Fei did not go home after leaving Vincent's place, but went directly to Wang Yufen's place.
In the house, Wang Yufen poured a basin of hot water and was washing Du Fei's feet.
Du Fei was sitting on the kang, and Xiao Wu came to him in a cowardly manner, and put his big head on Du Fei's hand, asking for a hug.
Du Fei touched it absently, his face a little solemn.
Wang Yufen was below, sitting on a small bench, shaking the water with her hands that made a "swishing" sound, and rubbing her feet soaked in the water gently.
She could see that Du Fei's mood was not right, but Du Fei didn't take the initiative to say anything, and she would never say anything.
In the room opposite, Yu Jiajia was in a state of confusion.
Since Wang Yufen mentioned last time that she wanted her to serve Du Fei together, this was the first time Du Fei came over.
Normally I would see nothing at work, but here, for some reason, Yu Jiajia could no longer maintain her normalcy.
After talking last time, she still hadn't made up her mind.
It's not like she wasn't willing to follow Du Fei.
But the question is, is Du Fei willing to let her be a waste of time?
Although Wang Yufen said it lightly, what would she do in the future if Du Fei didn't accept it?
Why can't I meet Du Fei and I can't go to class?
And she also has concerns about Wang Yufen.
Yu Jiajia is not stupid, she has suffered from the fickleness of people's hearts.
Although Wang Yufen said well now, if she really slept with Du Fei, things might change again.
By then we won’t even be able to be good sisters anymore.
Yu Jiajia doesn't have many friends in the capital, so she cherishes her relationship with Wang Yufen.
All kinds of worries made her more and more frightened.
Du Fei came today, but she didn't dare to move forward.
Wang Yufen originally had some concerns, but when she saw Du Fei entering the room with a gloomy expression on his face, he knew that something must be going on outside.
I knew it wasn't suitable by looking at my words and colors, so I simply gave up on the idea for the time being.
Du Fei was particularly energetic tonight and made Yu Jiajia hold the rolling pin for half the night...
The next day, with the pressure relieved, Du Fei came to the work unit full of energy.
There's no news from Vincent yet, so he probably didn't sleep last night.
At the 8270 factory, Du Fei did not notify them to stop production because of this change.
As the saying goes, once you make great efforts, you will be weak again, and finally you will be exhausted.
Now the morale of everyone in the factory has just been built up, and it must not be let down.
Otherwise, people's hearts will really be scattered.
As for the transaction that was really messed up, Du Fei had no choice but to find another way to sell this batch of equipment.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Du Fei received a call.
Finally there is news from Vincent's side.
Without saying anything on the phone, Du Fei rode his motorcycle and came to the guest house.
As soon as I arrived at Vincent's house, I smelled a choking smell of smoke.
Vincent opened the door, wearing pajamas, with messy hair, unshaven beard, and two dark circles under his eyes.
Du Fei estimated that he had not slept since yesterday.
After the two met, there was no unnecessary nonsense. Vincent said directly, "It has been found out~"
When Du Fei heard this, he quickly asked, "How is it?"
Vincent said in a deep voice, "It's Senator Gurr."
Du Fei frowned, he was very unfamiliar with this name.
After all, there are hundreds of people in the two houses of the United States, and they have to change their terms every few years. They are not their own people. It is really difficult.
Difficult to remember.
Moreover, the status of parliamentarians is also very different.
Those who control the various committees in parliament are the truly powerful people.
This Guer Senate is such a big shot.
Not only is he closely related to the Bush family, he also has huge influence in fbl.
This time, it is mainly this person who advocates preventing Quebec from obtaining equipment from flower cultivation.
Vincent did not say any more specific reasons.
But it is not difficult for Du Fei to think that in the final analysis, it is just the word "profit".
Hearing fbl, Du Fei couldn't help but narrow his eyes slightly.
The thoughts in my mind flickered, and I seemed to have vaguely touched something, but because my thoughts were too chaotic, I couldn't unravel the cocoon.
On the contrary, Vincent had obviously thought about it for a long time before calling Du Fei.
He said dejectedly, "Senator Gale is very powerful. I'm afraid our deal..."
Du Fei understood what he meant.
Vincent continued, "Besides, Canada already knows that if we are not responsible for transporting the goods, we will definitely not pay."
Du Fei frowned, not too surprised.
Since there are people who are sincerely seeking destruction, it is impossible to only exert force on their side.
Du Fei's face became even gloomier.
Blocking someone's way of making money is like killing your parents.
This can be tolerated!
An hour later, Du Fei came out of the guest house.
The two of them had been discussing for so long, and Vincent was a little frustrated.
Facing the powerful United States, he, a heroic nobleman, could only knock out his teeth and swallow it in his stomach.
There is no way, this is the situation now.
Du Fei was not reconciled.
Come out of the guest house and ride your motorcycle back to your unit.
I called Bush immediately.
When Bush left yesterday, he left his phone number and said that he could be reached by calling this number in the next few days.
Half an hour later, Bush came over again riding the 28-inch big bar.
This time Du Fei did not call anyone else and received Bush alone in the office.
In the reception room outside the office, Du Fei made two cups of tea and said, "Mr. Bush, this is this year's new tea. Please try it."
Du Fei spoke fluent English, which surprised Bush for a while at first glance.
Bush smiled and said, "Thank you, I really like green tea with flowers."
The two chatted for a while around the tea.
Bush said first, "Mr. Du asked me to come here just for tea, right?"
Usually at times like this, whoever loses his composure first will easily reveal his flaws.
But it's not that Bush is impatient, it's that he thinks he has good land at his back and can look down on Du Fei from the perspective of strength.
Although today's flower growers are qualified to be on the table and face to face with the beautiful land, they still do not have the strength to be on an equal footing.
Du Fei chuckled and said, "Mr. Bush, Millikin is the most powerful country in the world. There is no need to go to war over this little thing of mine. I am just a business here, doing business and selling things just to make money."
Bush shrugged helplessly, "Dear Du, thank you for your compliment, but... I'm just following orders."
Du Fei frowned and simply pointed out, "Is it Senator Gore?"
Bush was not surprised, he knew that Dufy's partner was Vincent.
With Vincent's connections, it's not surprising that he could find out some information.
Du Fei suddenly changed the subject, "Mr. Bush, you must have been in China for a while, right?"
Just by his skillful movements of getting on and off the bicycle, Du Fei knew that he was definitely not new here.
"It's been a few months." Bush replied, wondering why Du Fei suddenly asked this.
Du Fei said, "Then you should know our current situation very well. We are struggling to survive between you and Su Ge, and the economy is very difficult."
Bush frowned.
Du Fei continued, "Mr. Bush, do you know how much loss we will suffer if this transaction goes wrong? How many people will not be able to eat? How many people will not be paid? How many people... will starve to death!"
Du Fei's tone was calm and he was not particularly excited.
Bush smelled a danger.
Du Fei took a breath and continued, "Someone must be responsible for these consequences. Mr. Bush, I don't want it to be you."
Bush's expression suddenly changed, he stood up abruptly, his eyes were sinister and he said, "Du, you are threatening me!"
Du Fei said lightly, "You can understand it this way. Mr. Gore, if you try to ruin my business, I will try to kill you. This is fair, isn’t it~"
"Du, your idea is very dangerous!" Bush said coldly, "No one in this world can harm American citizens without paying the price."
"Citizen?" Du Fei sneered, "Don't say it so high-sounding. You are just a small group of powerful people. Don't forget how Martin died last year."
Bush's momentum faltered.
Du Fei added, "Besides, you can't represent the good land. If Mr. Gale is found dead at home today, I will definitely not be the happiest person."
Bush pursed his lips and stared at Du Fei with sharp eyes: "What do you want?"
Du Fei looked at each other and said, "Give to God what is God's, and to Caesar what is Caesar's. No one can make me lose tens of millions with just a few words."
After saying that, Du Fei relaxed and leaned back, "Of course, Mr. Bush, as you said, I will pay the price after you die. It may be the Second Korean War, or a round bullet, who knows
Here~"
Bush pursed his lips and looked at Du Fei. After a long silence, he squeezed out two words through his teeth: "Crazy!"
Du Fei smiled, this was exactly what he wanted.
Why are those who are barefoot not afraid of those who wear shoes? To put it bluntly, it means that they have no worries and can take it easy.
Bush also understood that Du Fei was blackmailing.
But he cannot ignore that he is the heir to the Bush family and will become a senator or even a leader in the future.
Moreover, his visit this time was just a request from Senator Gore. It was not a serious official business, and he could not commit any crime.
Bush took a deep breath and adjusted his mood.
As worthy of receiving an elite education since childhood, Bush is now a mature and serious person.
It took him a few breaths to control his emotions, and he had enough time to say, "Du, I have no intention of being your enemy."
This remark was a double entendre, referring to both himself and the Bush family.
Du Fei said, "Of course, I don't want to either. As I said just now, the United States is the most powerful country in the world. It doesn't even need to be added to the list. No one wants to be your enemy." Du Fei said with a sneer, "But
You don’t want people to live anymore, why don’t you want people to resist before death?”
Bush's face remained calm. "What do you want?"
For him, this moral accusation means nothing.
Du Fei continued, "It's very simple. What's mine is mine. I don't care what others do, but I can't suffer a loss."
Bush looked at Du Fei. He had long felt that Du Fei was different from other flower growers.
When he comes into contact with other people, he always likes to talk about doctrine, ideals, and destiny.
Du Fei, on the other hand, was obsessed with profit.
He understood that those harsh words Du Fei said just now were just a means of negotiation.
Bush said firmly, "Du, I don't know how much you know about Mr. Gore, but he will never allow a piece of equipment to enter Quebec."
Du Fei smiled and said, "Mr. Bush, that's not important to me. I only know that this transaction will bring me a profit of 20 million US dollars."
Bush frowned, understanding that this was Du Fei's price.
According to the current exchange rate, 20 million U.S. dollars is equivalent to 70 million yuan.
In fact, it has greatly exceeded the original amount of this transaction.
Bush shook his head and said, "This is impossible. Twenty million is too much."
When Du Fei heard this, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Since there are too many, let’s talk about it.
Du Fei said, "Of course, but for the powerful United States, it is certainly nothing. I heard that in your Hexagon Building, a wrench costs thousands of dollars, and a coffee cup costs fifteen hundred dollars."
Bush's face looked a little ugly.
Of course he knew the filth inside the Hexagon Building, but it was still very embarrassing for him to be exposed by an outsider in front of his face.
Du Fei smiled and said, "I heard that Mr. Gale is very influential in fbl. He is a brave fbl agent who went deep into the tiger's den, created the dragon's pool, and destroyed the enemy's evil conspiracy to export dangerous equipment to Canada. For such a great achievement, he spent two thousand
Ten thousand yuan is not excessive, right?"
Bush frowned and remained silent.
Du Fei then said half-jokingly, "I can still cooperate. For example... I'll issue you an invoice for 50 million. You go back and get the big head, and I'll take the small head. How about that?"
Bush couldn't laugh or cry, "Du, you really can joke."
After saying that, he stood up and said, "I will report this matter to Mr. Gale. I will take my leave now."
Du Fei sent him outside with a smile, without any of his previous tense attitude.
While watching Bush walk away, Du Fei suppressed his smile and turned back to the courtyard.
