Protagonist:

Jiang Wenyu

A few minutes later, watching Li Chen eat and drink heartily, Jiang Wenyu asked again, "Who did you sell the color TV to?"

Li Chen went to a neighboring city near Chema City, similar in scale to Chema City but slightly smaller, called Huadeng City.

Li Chen swallowed a mouthful of food whole, took a sip of water, and said, "Phew... it was the boss of an electrical appliance supplier I used to deal with. A while back I heard his daughter went to study in a big city, and he even threw a banquet for it. He's a successful man, so I thought I'd try looking him up, and he actually bought it at a flat price, no haggling at all."

Jiang Wenyu nodded and said, "That's pretty good."

Li Chen laughed proudly, "Hehe, your big brother's abilities aren't small either. In terms of repair skills I'm not as good as you, but my connections are much wider than yours. If there's anything in the future just say the word, big brother's got you covered!"

Jiang Wenyu smiled helplessly and said, "Alright, from now on this little brother will be counting on you."

"Absolutely no problem!"

……

Huadeng City, overall area a circle smaller than Chema City, but its population is a bit more than Chema City. The development level here is basically on par with Chema City, but in the past half year all kinds of factories have suddenly sprung up, and the construction scope is quite a bit more than Chema City.

But overall there isn't too much difference.

At this time it was approaching eleven at noon. A man, introduced by others, arrived at a certain separate courtyard. The courtyard was inherited from the old era, with a very strong antique atmosphere.

A man wearing a white shirt walked out from inside. The man's crown was somewhat bald, but his complexion was energetic. He walked over smiling and said, "Mr. Wang, it's been too long."

The former extended his hand and shook it with him, also smiling and saying, "Boss Ma, hello."

Wang Tao recognized the person before him. His name was Ma Xianjin, one of the top big bosses in Huadeng City, with a very large electrical appliance company under him, named "Jinchuan" Company.

He had once had the fortune to share a meal with Ma Xianjin, and thus became acquainted.

"Hehe, Mr. Wang, let's go inside and talk." Ma Xianjin was a casual person, and treated people very politely.

After walking into the spacious room and sitting on that big sofa, Ma Xianjin then said, "Mr. Wang, we really haven't seen each other in a long time. How's your mall doing recently?"

Wang Tao took a deep breath and said, "Barely smooth sailing, but I've had some new ideas recently, so I came to discuss with Boss Ma."

Ma Xianjin nodded and said, "Please speak, Mr. Wang."

Wang Tao said, "I recently discovered electrical appliance repair seems to be a viable path too, but I don't understand it much myself. I tried twice with no results, but I indeed saw the opportunity in this area. So the main purpose of this visit is to ask Boss Ma to introduce a few talents who understand electrical appliance repair. Boss Ma rest assured, the compensation that should be given, I, Wang Tao, won't be stingy."

Ma Xianjin was very smart, and immediately understood Wang Tao's intention. He hesitated for a moment and said, "Hmm... I haven't touched the repair industry. My company does electrical appliance business, but to tell the truth, the technical content is very low. Most are introduced from outside; we can't manufacture them ourselves. As for repair talents... probably can only be found in big cities."

Wang Tao hurriedly asked, "Even you don't know a few?"

Ma Xianjin shook his head and said, "To be honest, even if there were talents in this area they would have long since run off to develop in big cities. Who would stay in this tiny Huadeng City?"

Wang Tao felt helpless and bitterly smiled repeatedly in his heart. He only knew one talent in this area, and that person was in Chema City specifically doing repairs.

He, Wang Tao, didn't want to miss this line of work. This was a good money-making business. Precisely because of this he thought of Ma Xianjin, this electrical appliance merchant. But it seemed there were no repair personnel here either.

Wang Tao, his plans fallen through, couldn't help but sigh. Then Ma Xianjin suddenly said, "Ah, right. Yesterday an old friend came looking for me. He told me there's a Jiang Wenyu in Chema City who repairs electrical appliances very skillfully. You can totally go find him."

Upon hearing this, Wang Tao nearly burst into tears. It was precisely because of Jiang Wenyu that he planned to get into this line, but he couldn't even hire the man himself.

Wang Tao was very helpless, and could only reluctantly say, "Good... then many thanks to Boss Ma. I won't stay longer. Another day I'll treat you, Boss Ma, to a meal in Chema City."

Ma Xianjin laughed heartily, "Good good good, then at that time I'll be respectful rather than polite!"

Wang Tao stood up preparing to leave, but just as he turned his head, a huge thing suddenly entered his sight.

It was a color television standing on a cabinet to the side.

Wang Tao froze. This color TV was really big. He estimated it had to be 18 inches at least. Boss Ma truly was a big boss; buying such a large color TV for his home was really face. Huh? Wait...

Wang Tao suddenly felt something was off. Why did this large color TV... look so familiar!

He widened his eyes and looked carefully again, then subconsciously asked, "Boss Ma... this color TV... where did you get it from?"
