Chapter 416

Damn, how come everyone's got so much money now? They can actually afford 4000 bucks? Ye Cheng was also convinced.

Hehe, that's not because of you, Ye Lao Er.

What does that have to do with me? I didn't tell them to buy it.

You didn't tell them to buy it, but you've got money now, everyone's feeling anxious inside, suddenly such an opportunity comes up, saying you can become a millionaire—you think they wouldn't be moved?

Is this also my fault?

This is multi-level marketing; keep the villagers away from it. No, I have to go tell Chen Jinhai.

Although seeing Chen Jinhai displeases him, he still thinks he should say something about this.

Eh, not— Li Quezi hadn't finished speaking when Ye Cheng already walked off with a cigarette.

No, if you go tell them it'll have the opposite effect. Li Quezi muttered.

Ye Cheng really hadn't thought that much; he just wanted Chen Jinhai to tell everyone not to touch multi-level marketing.

However, after hearing Ye Cheng's words, Chen Jinhai put down his teacup with a completely unbothered expression and then said slowly and deliberately,

Ye Cheng, why are you also interfering with other people's sales?

I said, this is multi-level marketing, which the state has explicitly banned. Ye Cheng said, suppressing his anger,

You need to tell the villagers, spread this knowledge, otherwise if something happens later, nobody will be happy.

What could happen? Spend 4000 bucks to buy something, then as long as you sell it you earn it back—I think it's pretty good. Chen Jinhai said leisurely.

Seeing Chen Jinhai like that, Ye Cheng understood—this guy thought he was tricking them.

Forget it, anyway I've said my piece; I won't care whether they listen or not.

I've delivered the message; if this MLM spreads, I'll report it directly to the police!

Having said that, Ye Cheng turned and left without looking back.

Chen Jinhai stood up with a cold face, spat at Ye Cheng's back,

Truly black-hearted—once he makes money, he won't let others earn.

Seeing Ye Cheng come to his door voluntarily, Chen Jinhai didn't think he was well-intentioned at all; that bastard was just here to cause trouble.

He thought it over; according to He Feiyang, the earlier you buy this, the better—so he would be the upline.

Then he would get a few Chen family brothers to buy it, and they'd all be his downline.

Then they would go sell it, and it would be a rolling fortune.

The more he thought about it, the more excited he got; Chen Jinhai immediately got up to go find He Feiyang.

In the following two days, Ye Cheng still led people out to sea.

They were focused on fishing for money, going out late and returning early, but they didn't notice that Baiyun Village was already starting to get chaotic.

The first person to buy a massager from He Feiyang was Chen Jinfa; Ye Cheng and his group had been out at sea for several days straight and were resting, so they rested as well.

During this period he made quite a bit of money: one part was a private 20,000 rebate, the other was wages for piloting the boat.

But he knew this wasn't a long-term solution; the Chen family's big boat yielded little, at best just enough to get by, so he still needed to find other ways.

Coincidentally, He Feiyang came door-to-door to promote; upon hearing that as long as you sell it and find a downstream buyer, you could thereafter sit and collect money without working.

Besides, this is a good thing—doesn't it suit me perfectly?

He decided: first buy one unit, then he would approach the Chen family brothers; they've recently earned some wages from fishing, so if he recruits five of them and each of them recruits five more, he'll break even quickly.

Going forward, developing this will be much better than earning money through bitter sea fishing.

After purchasing it, he officially became a salesperson for the 'Pais' massager; he organized He Feiyang's talking points a bit, then headed to Chen Jinli's house—this was the first downline he intended to develop.

Just as he entered, he heard a lively bustle inside.

He glanced inside and saw Chen Jinhai there as well.

However...

He was also promoting the Pais massager.

"Jinhai, you bought one too?" Chen Jinfa pushed the door open and entered.

Chen Jinhai turned his head, looked, and said, "Damn, Chen Jinfa also came in holding a massager."

Chen Jinli looked exasperated, gazing at the two and said,

"No, why did you both buy this thing? Is it really that good?"

"Of course it's good! You'll know once you buy it!" The two said in unison.

Half an hour later, Chen Jinfa walked out, swearing.

"Damn, relying on being the village chief to act all mighty, huh? Forcing people to buy from you."

The two had just been arguing fiercely inside; in the end, Chen Jinhai pulled out his authority as village chief, and Chen Jinli finally agreed to buy one from him.

Since Chen Jinli had been secured, he could only go look for someone else.

One told two, two told four; soon everyone in the Chen family knew that buying the massager could make money.

Chen Jinhai had already sold two units, and his downline Chen Jinli had sold one, recouping 600 dollars; seeing the real money hit his account, he was beside himself with excitement.

This isn't faster than making money through work, huh? He's now wondering who else he can develop.

Just as he was thinking that, suddenly the doorway became noisy, a crowd rushed in—exactly those people who had previously pooled money to buy the boat, led by Chen Houda.

"Uncle, what's this?"

"Jinhai, we want to withdraw our shares." Chen Houda got straight to the point.

"Withdraw what shares?"

"It's the money for the boat; we want our money back!" Chen Houda said bluntly.

"No, we just bought the boat a few days ago, and you want to withdraw? The money hasn't even been earned yet." Chen Jinhai was somewhat speechless—who does that?

"I don't care, anyway I want to withdraw." Chen Houda plopped down heavily in front of Chen Jinhai.

"We want to withdraw too!"

"Yes, we also want a refund!"

Several others also joined in shouting.

"Quiet! Settle down!" Chen Jinhai flared up, stood up and shouted loudly, "Damn it, do you think my village chief's home is a vegetable market?"

"Speak, why do we want a refund? Our boat is still making money; now we earn less, but we will definitely earn more later."

Seeing Chen Jinhai flare up, the others dared not speak and turned their gaze to Chen Houda.

Chen Houda wasn't afraid of him either, and directly said,

"We want to buy Feiyang's massager; don't say you don't know—you bought one yourself and even sold two; this makes more money than fishing."

Chen Jinhai looked at Chen Houda and the others in surprise, wondering how so many people knew about it.

Damn!

Then who did I sell it to?

"We need to take out the money to buy the massager."

"Yes, I want to buy one too."

Chen Jinhai felt his head swelling; getting a refund isn't that easy.

Who will give the money back?

Nobody has any money.

"I have no money, and besides, wasn't it agreed that we all bought it? If you want a refund, who will give you the money? I certainly don't have that much." Chen Jinhai spread his hands, unwilling to get involved anymore.

"That won't do; you were the one who collected the money, so we definitely have to ask you for it."

"Come to me, I also have no money! Who can come up with 320,000? Nobody can!"

"Fine, then we'll sell it for cash." Chen Houda interjected.
