~4 min read 603 words

Lin Dafa echoed with a laugh, "As long as I didn't disturb your rest, Old Zheng."

Zheng the Eunuch laughed, picked up his teacup, took a sip of water, and said, "What's the matter today, making such a big fuss that you, Old Lin, the old man who has retreated behind the scenes, had to come out in person?"

"Nothing much. I was just bored at home, so I came to see you, Old Zheng." Lin Dafa's words were very pleasant to hear.

"If that's really the case, then I, Zheng Liangyu, am truly flattered," Zheng the Eunuch said with a loud laugh, then picked up the pack of opened Soft Zhonghua cigarettes from the table, about to give one to Lin Dafa.

Seeing this, Lin Dafa hurriedly stood up, took out a pack of cigarettes, walked forward, and handed one to Zheng the Eunuch, saying, "Old Zheng, smoke mine, smoke mine."

"They're all the same, they're all the same." Zheng the Eunuch smiled and accepted the cigarette Lin Dafa handed over. Looking at the filter, he said with surprise and a smile, "Old Lin, you're not simple. This kind of cigarette is usually hard to buy even with money. I didn't expect your grade to be getting higher and higher, Old Lin."

Lin Dafa smiled, handed over his lighter, helped Zheng the Eunuch light the cigarette, and said, "Old Zheng, don't you like smoking this cigarette? I specifically asked a friend in Yunnan to help me get two packs and brought them for you." Saying this, Lin Dafa turned his head and gave his daughter-in-law, Zhang Hui, a wink.

Zhang Hui understood and stood up from the sofa. She carried a plastic bag, took out the two packs of cigarettes inside, and placed them on Zheng the Eunuch's table. Seeing the two packs of "Da Zhongjiu" cigarettes on his desk, which were basically impossible to buy on the market—it was said that they cost 8,000 RMB per pack, but the production was extremely low, and it was hard to buy even with money. Last time at dinner, Lin Dafa had given this kind of cigarette to Zheng the Eunuch to smoke. The old guy, who liked smoking, knew the quality of the cigarette as soon as he smoked it. After the first puff, he felt it was a top-grade cigarette. At the table, Lin Dafa said that a business partner had given him a pack of "Da Zhongjiu." The old guy just said casually, "Then, Boss Lin, send me two packs to smoke another day!" He had just said it casually and really didn't expect Lin Dafa to take it to heart. Today, he had specifically brought two packs. The two packs of cigarettes together cost less than 20,000 yuan, but the effort spent to get two packs of such extremely precious top-grade cigarettes was far more than 20,000 yuan. Facing Lin Dafa's such heavy friendship, Zheng the Eunuch was truly moved for a moment. He glanced at the two packs of "Da Zhongjiu" on the table and said gratefully, "Oh my, Old Lin, I just said it casually last time. I didn't expect you to really take it to heart."

"Of course. What is our relationship? Since you like this flavor, Old Zheng, I happened to have a friend doing business in Yunnan, so I asked him to get two packs for me and specifically brought them to you, Old Zheng." Lin Dafa spoke very lightly. Any smart person, when asking for help, would never say how much effort they had put in, so as not to put pressure on others.
