Chapter 1426: Upgraded Scam

Houhai, The First Bar!

Five men and women with extraordinary bearing sat in a corner booth, chatting idly.

A woman with short hair had her arms crossed, holding a Jiang Xiaomei in one hand and taking a sip.

"Feng Duo, this guy, disappeared for more than half a year and suddenly contacted us. Could it be to pay back the money?"

A man wearing a high-neck wool sweater with long hair like a literary youth said sarcastically.

"Unless he robs a bank, what would he use to pay back the money?"

"A chicken doesn't pee, everyone has their own way." A young man said with a smile: "When it comes to making money, Feng Duo still has some ability."

The short-haired woman nodded in agreement: "If it weren't for this, I wouldn't have lent him money."

Another slightly plump woman sighed: "At the time, he just told me he was borrowing money for an emergency and would pay it back in a month with 8% interest. I didn't think too much and gave him the money."

"He told me the same thing."

The young man who hadn't spoken picked up his glass and took a sip of wine.

"Who would have thought he was setting up a scheme, using this money as bait, only to be trapped and buried by someone else."

The short-haired woman said: "I looked into the Ponzi scheme. To be honest, if Feng Duo had found me first, I might have fallen into the trap; it was too attractive."

"If Gu Bing didn't have that expert Zhou Andong by his side, Feng Duo's probability of success would have been very high."

The plump woman said: "I have been paying attention to Zhou Andong, thinking about finding an opportunity to sit down and chat with him."

The short-haired woman teased: "You're going to find Zhou Andong, aren't you afraid your old Chen will be jealous?"

The plump woman said irritably: "I just want to get to know Zhou Andong and see if there's any room for cooperation in business."

The short-haired woman looked disdainful: "I'll just ask you, is Zhou Andong very charming?"

The plump woman nodded: "I admit this. With so much talent and ability, which woman wouldn't be moved? If it weren't for the fact that I already have a child, I would definitely kick old Chen and go chase Zhou Andong."

The short-haired woman sighed: "What a pity."

"Hmm?"

Everyone looked at the short-haired woman in surprise. The plump woman blinked: "Xiaoru, you wouldn't really have taken a fancy to Zhou Andong, would you?"

"Yes!" Xiaoru admitted readily: "But it's useless; Jian Qiu got there first."

"What do you mean Jian Qiu got there first?" An untimely voice sounded from the side.

Several people looked up and saw it was Feng Duo. This guy was wearing a suit and tie.

His small leather shoes were polished until they shone, and he was carrying a black leather suitcase, looking very business-like.

"Oh my, Young Master Feng is back." The long-haired man stood up to give him a seat: "Quick, quick, sit here."

Others looked at the suitcase Feng Duo was carrying and suddenly became enthusiastic.

"I say Duozi, where have you been for the past half year? I wanted to find you for a drink, but I couldn't find you."

Feng Duo sat down boldly and placed the suitcase at his feet.

"I went to Xiangjiang, did some small business, and made some money."

When the few heard this and looked at the black suitcase at Feng Duo's feet, they guessed it was filled with money. This guy invited them out to pay back his debts.

Xiaoru asked curiously: "Looking at your glowing face, you must have made quite a bit."

"It's alright. In the past six months, I've made over ten million."

Feng Duo unceremoniously picked up the Brave the World on the table, opened it, and took a sip.

The few were shocked. Made over ten million in half a year?

You have to know, he ran to Xiangjiang because he owed money. How did this guy do it?

Seeing the shocked expressions on the five people's faces, Feng Duo was very proud.

"I'm just an agent for a big French brand's products, and they are selling extremely, extremely well in Xiangjiang."

"Just an agent for products?" The plump woman didn't believe it even more. Agent for products, and you can make over ten million in half a year?

"Yes!" Feng Duo picked up the suitcase, placed it on the table, and opened it with a click.

The five stretched their necks to look, and then they were disappointed.

There was no money inside; besides a pile of jewelry, it was all bottles and jars.

Feng Duo took the things out one by one.

"Our Wuzhou Group is the agent for the French brand Blue Spring. This is a century-old French brand, and our company is the agent for its products. There are perfumes, aromatherapy essential oils, cosmetics, watches, jewelry, and even red wine and health supplements."

Feng Duo introduced every product, especially emphasizing the aromatherapy essential oils. Different models had different effects: relieving fatigue, treating chronic rhinitis, relieving rheumatic bone pain, treating insomnia, decomposing secondhand smoke, etc...

"These things are selling quite well in Xiangjiang." After Feng Duo finished introducing them, he put everything away: "I thought, since they are selling so well in Xiangjiang, they definitely won't be bad in the country."

"So I thought of you brothers and sisters. After all, it's a business that makes money without losing, so of course, I can't let outsiders take advantage of it, right?"

"Duozi, you're right to think that way." The long-haired man nodded: "A business that makes money, of course, we should do it ourselves."

Others nodded as well. As long as it's a foreign brand, no matter what it sells, it must sell well.

If they could get the agency for this brand, it would be hard not to make money.

Feng Duo was very satisfied with the five people's reaction: "When you get goods from me, there is a discount rate. There are six levels in total. The first level discount is 20%, and the highest level, which is the sixth level, the discount is 43%."

"In Xiangjiang, most customers choose the middle level, with a discount of 38%. A one-time investment of over 62,000 HKD can purchase over 84,000 HKD worth of goods."

"Then you find people to open branch stores. As long as you find six people, each with a one-time investment of over 62,000 HKD, to open six branch stores, the company will give you a rebate. The more branch stores you open, the higher the rebate..."

At first, the plump woman listened very carefully, but as she listened, she felt something was wrong.

After all, having just finished studying Ponzi schemes, she was very sensitive to this stuff.

No matter how she listened, she felt this was a Ponzi scheme, but the method was very clever.

Previous Ponzi schemes just relied on glib tongues, but this time, Feng Duo brought products.

The plump woman squinted her eyes, leaned back, and she didn't bother to listen anymore.

The short-haired woman saw this, her heart stirred, and she leaned back.

She stretched out her finger, poked the plump woman, and leaned inward.

She leaned her head on the plump woman's shoulder and asked in a soft whisper.

"What's wrong?"

The plump woman smiled and shook her head: "Nothing."

The short-haired woman looked suspiciously at the plump woman: "No, you must be hiding something from me."

The plump woman stood up: "I'm going to the restroom."

The short-haired woman hurriedly followed. Only after getting away from Feng Duo did she open her mouth: "What exactly is going on? I think acting as an agent for their products will definitely sell well."

The plump woman smiled and said: "Feng Duo, this kid, still hasn't changed. Last time he tried to scam Gu Bing and failed, and was scammed by him instead. Now that dog thing has come over to scam us again, but the method is very clever and hard to see through." ===== CHAPTER 1427 =====
