"Why are you looking at me, go bring us some of that Monkey Wine of yours!" shouted an impatient Bai Jianjun, who had personally experienced the benefits of the "Monkey Wine".
What kind of parents are you guys….
While speechless on the inside, Bai Yang hesitated for a while before he said to his father, "Dad, you know that I'm in some sort of a trading business right now, yes?"
"So what? Just tell me what you want, I can already tell that there's nothing good coming from you by looking at your expression," replied Bai Jianjun.
"What do you mean, I'm trying to bring great fortune to you but with this attitude, I am now considering if you're worthy of my good news!" rebutted Bai Yang.
It couldn't be helped; this conversation habit had been going on for years. It was rooted so deep into their bones that they couldn't change it anymore.
Despite Bia Yang showing his unhappiness, Bai Jianjun still carefreely throws out a word, "Speak."
He knew his own son very well that the young man wouldn't commit any crime but he too, wouldn't do anything nice as well.
"Hey dad, can't you be a little more serious than this….. What I want to say is… Let's cut to the chase, we are importing some precious wood, so I want to ask if you're interested or not?"
Hearing this, Bai Jianjun immediately gave Bai Yang a mocking glance and said, "I knew it! You just started working and you're already thinking of making a profit out of me! I bet you are envious of your colleagues who hit their target so you came to me, in order to hit your target!"
With a wave to stop Bai Yang who wore an expression as if he was constipating from talking, Bai Jianjun continued, "Basically, everything in this house is yours one day, so I'd definitely support you no matter what during the starting phase of your job. Fine, I'll let myself be scammed by you, but don't do it too often!"
"....."
Bai Yang stared towards the light bulb in with an empty mind, What the hell?
But deep down, he was still very touched, parents would always side with their children, even if they knew they were being taken advantage of. Anything was fine as long as their child could stand proud in front of everyone….
But things were definitely not right here, for Bai Yang swore he was here to bring good fortune!
"You guys talk, I'll go make us our meal," said Zhen Guoping who had little interest in such talks as she walked towards the kitchen.
"Dad, the company is really importing some precious wood, you are in the furniture-making business, so I thought you might use them. If you think I'm going to cheat you then I'll promote it to someone else," sighed Bai Yang.
Of course, he wouldn't sell them to someone else, he'd rather let them rot with him.
"What kind of wood materials?" asked Bai Jianjun as he spits out his question while sipping on his tea.
"Red sandalwood, hmmm, more than 10 tons I think?"
Pu——
Bai Jianjun couldn't hold himself back from the shock he received and the tea came gushing out his mouth. For quite some time, he pointed his finger at Bai Yang shiveringly while coughing as a result of choking on his tea.
After finally regaining his breath, he pointed at Bai Yang's nose and shouted, "You can cheat me but not like that! How dare you try to sell me that much wood! I think you might as well inherit this whole house and the three of us will go beg on the streets!"
"What do you mean?" asked Bai Yang with a twitching mouth.
"I mean, I am not that rich! I can't afford that, understand now? I thought you are talking about a few tonnes of ordinary wood, so I figure that I might be able to take them down, but you are really too much! You are trying to steal all my money, aren't you!?"
Hearing this, Bai Yang was laughing in his heart. His dad always had an attitude saying that he was wealthy, it was rare to see him in such a manner. The young man took a sip and continued, "It doesn't matter, I can lower the price and sell you at the lowest market price possible if you are interested. If that is not enough, I can even personally offer you a discount, don't stare at me! Still no? How about installment? I can give you that as well, but only to you!"
At this point, Bai Jianjun's worry calmed down, and he mocked Bai Yang without even looking at him, "I finally know now, you're just a blatant liar! Are you having fun messing around with me? Do you think I'm that lucky to have such nice things happen to me? And do you think that you're the one in charge of the company!?"
Bia Yang thought, Not quite, but not far away from the truth! Company my ass! This is a one-man operation.
Then he started preparing his speech.
To be honest, he knew that it wouldn't be easy to sell the wood materials to his father, but now it seemed more than just difficult; first, his dad did not believe him, then he did not trust him later on….
"Ok, so I'll just bring samples straight to your workplace, if you think its fine, take it, if they do not meet your standards, I will bring them back, how about that?"
This was the easiest and quickest way Bai Yang could think of.
"The more I think, the more I think you are a liar, how can your boss really let you do something like this? Red sandalwood, heh, not even compressed wood could be like that…." mocked Bao Jianjun.
"Whatever, I will bring them to you later, and that's it. It's all decided. And…. I'm leaving now, bye~"
Bai Yang said goodbye to his dad and started leaving. The more he spoke, the more mistakes he would make, a lie required even more lies to complete it. Where was he supposed to find a legitimate company to trade with his father? He was planning on renting a truck and pulling the wood materials right into his dad's factory!
"Hey, don't forget the wine!" reminded Bai Jianjun.
"Of course! I will bring it along with the wood materials!"
With a wave, he closed the door and left right away.
Accompanied by the stars and the moon in the dark, Bai Yang rode his bike back to the rented villa. Along the way, he ran into a few brats on some superbike, speeding on the road, whose provocations he ignored entirely.
On the road where there were barely any road lamps, Bai Yang was very unhappy at the roaring of the superbikes.
Is there no end to these brats? I will scare you to death right now, since you can't even see my face clearly in the dark.
While mumbling in his heart, Bai Yang stomped on the brakes and disappeared into thin air.
Weng weng weng…. Peng peng peng….
Seeing Bai Yang inexplicably disappear, the brats fell into a total panic, falling onto the ground as a result.
"Holy shit, god save me!"
They scrambled back onto their bikes and started fleeing!
A minute later, Bai Yang reappeared, still sitting on his bike and grinning after seeing the debris on the ground. Ever since then, this stretch of road was rumored to be haunted by a ghost and the brats no longer dared to return.
After returning to the villa, Bai Yang scratched his head as he wondered what he should be doing….
It was barely night time over here, and on the other side, it was also night time, in which case it would probably last longer than the night time on Earth. He was not sleepy at all and he tapped on his head as he decided to deal with the affairs in his hands right now.
He went searching for places that rent larger trucks and once again, he was grateful for the all-powerful internet.
It was not difficult at all, for he found a private truck rental quickly and dialed them up. During the call, the opposite side was impatient for it was already at night, but when Bai Yang said that he was going to rent a truck for a day at the price of 10,000, the person said that he would be welcoming Bai Yang anytime and any day…..
A problem that could be solved by money was never a problem!
After this, I'll be entirely broke, but dad will definitely force himself to swallow the batch of red sandalwood after I showed them to him and with that, money!
Thinking it through thoroughly, Bai Yang made up his mind and got out again to withdraw money. After that, he almost teared up after seeing the three-digit balance in his account….
Arriving at the destination, a barbeque stall near the outskirts, where there were giant trucks everywhere that sported more than 10 wheels. With a call, a huge sized bald man stood up from the stall and waved at Bai Yang.
"Would you like to drink some, brother?" asked the bald man.
"Brother Yang, yes? Thanks but no thanks, I'm in a little hurry, where's the truck?" waved Bai Yang as he thanked the bald man for offering him some beer.
Previously, this man introduced himself as Yang Biao and like his voice, he looked extremely fierce but was still a weak chicken compared to the size of the barbarians….
He seemed familiar with his work but he looked strictly at Bai Yang, "Money first, then the key. I don't care what you're going to transport with the truck, but let me tell you this. It's on you if anything happens to the truck!"
"Of course. Here's the money, where is the key?" replied Bai Yang as he did not waste time and paid Yang Biao the cash.
He was not worried about being scammed, for he was not someone who would aggro everyone in this world.
The process was simple, first paying for the rental, then taking the key and leaving the superbike to be retrieved again after Bai Yang was done with his matters. He also told Yang Biao that if he wanted to ride it for fun, he could so long as nothing happened to the bike.
There were not as many cheats and scams among the interaction of human, who wouldn't want to live their lives peacefully if they have the chance, at least that's what most people wanted….
What are these young men doing nowadays? What are they even thinking?
Yang Biao thought as he shook his head and his eyes lit up after eyeing right the attractive superbike left behind by Bai Yang….
