Chapter 1903

~8 min read 1,527 words

It has not been easy for Zhang Zhang Ermao to make a living in Jin Ling these years.

After all, he does some shady business, is often chased around like a dog, and even gets a good beating every few days; his life has not been stable.

The reason for this is mainly that he does not have a backer who can protect him.

It's not that Zhang Zhang Ermao hasn't thought about building a good relationship with people in the underworld, especially that Dong Kui who is specifically in charge of the Antique Street.

However, in Dong Kui's eyes, he is just a low-class con artist.

Not to mention that Dong Kui doesn't take him seriously, even Dong Kui's underlings don't consider him anything.

Therefore, if Ye Chen hadn't pulled him up, he wouldn't even be able to reach a character like Dong Kui.

But it's better now; now Ye Chen is letting him follow Hong Wu as a strategist, which is equivalent to pulling him up several levels at once!

If nothing else, from today on, he can be considered Hong Wu's direct subordinate, considered to be from the same school as Ma Zhongliang, and directly one level higher than Dong Kui, whom he couldn't even reach before.

Precisely because he realized this deeply, Zhang Zhang Ermao was extremely grateful to Ye Chen in his heart.

Ye Chen looked at his grateful appearance and exhorted: "Zhang Zhang Ermao, after following Hong Wu, don't go to the Antique Street to engage in these scams anymore. Although Hong Wu is still a man of the underworld, his business has now been transformed cleanly. Don't go there and have crooked ideas again."

Zhang Zhang Ermao hurriedly expressed his position: "Mr. Ye, please rest assured, I will definitely follow your teachings and will never touch these unclean things again!"

Ye Chen nodded, always feeling that Zhang Zhang Ermao's words sounded fine, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt a little uncomfortable.

On second thought, he had just scammed two billion from Bernard Elnor; compared to himself, Zhang Zhang Ermao wasn't even a small witch meeting a big witch, he was a little chick meeting a Tyrannosaurus Rex.

However, fortunately, Ye Chen didn't intend to keep the money he got from Elnor for himself, but planned to donate all of it to charity. In this way, he felt much more comfortable.

Immediately, Ye Chen called Hong Wu and asked him: "Hong Wu, where are you?"

Hong Wu hurriedly said: "Master Ye, I am at Tianxiang Mansion. Do you have any instructions?"

Ye Chen then said: "I have picked out a strategist for you. Since you are at Tianxiang Mansion, I will have him go to Tianxiang Mansion to find you in a while."

Hong Wu asked in surprise: "You picked out a strategist for me?! Master Ye, who is this strategist?!"

Ye Chen asked with a smile: "Zhang Zhang Ermao from the Antique Street, do you know him?"

Hong Wu was stunned and said: "I know him, Master Ye. Are you planning to let him be my strategist?"

At this time, Zhang Zhang Ermao beside Ye Chen looked nervous, fearing that Hong Wu would be dissatisfied with him or simply look down on him.

Ye Chen said firmly at this time: "That's right, I think Zhang Zhang Ermao is very clever and has a way of doing things. He can just partner with you and give you some new inspiration in handling certain problems."

Hong Wu said with a chuckle: "I have heard that this old boy is very ghostly, but I haven't had much contact with him. Since Master Ye has said so, this old boy must have some extraordinary qualities!"

After saying that, he immediately smiled: "Master Ye, you can just let this old boy come over to find me, and I will have a good chat with him."

"Hmm." Ye Chen then said: "I will have him go over now."

After saying that, Ye Chen hung up the phone and said to Zhang Zhang Ermao: "I have already greeted Hong Wu. You are to go directly to Tianxiang Mansion to find him now. For the first period of time, follow him to understand his current business context, think more, study more, and see if you have any unique ideas of your own."

Zhang Zhang Ermao bowed repeatedly with incomparable gratitude: "Thank you, Master Ye! I will definitely calm my heart, follow Master Hong Wu to learn and study well! Many thanks to Master Ye for your promotion and cultivation. Your great kindness and virtue, I will never forget!"

Ye Chen scolded with a smile: "Alright, stop being so flowery here, go quickly."

Zhang Zhang Ermao's eyes turned red, and he couldn't help but shed two tears, then hurriedly wiped them away with his sleeve, sighing: "Master Ye, you don't know, for these years, I, Zhang Zhang Ermao, have been like an orphan without a father or mother. Not to mention the Antique Street, everywhere I go, I have to nod and bow, and flatter others. In the end, it's because I don't have a backer. Anyone who is a local in Jin Ling can bully me and squeeze me... I really didn't expect that I could still follow Master Hong Wu and follow you in this life..."

Speaking of this, he couldn't help but wipe his tears again, then said seriously: "Master Ye, saying these things makes me look like I have no backbone! In short, please rest assured, I will definitely not let you and Master Hong Wu down in the future!"

Ye Chen nodded and said: "Having a backer is naturally a good thing, but you must also remember the days when you had no backer. Never bully other poor people just because you have a backer. Don't let yourself become the person you hated the most at the beginning."

Zhang Zhang Ermao nodded repeatedly and said humbly: "Master Ye, please rest assured, I understand this ten thousand times!"

Seeing that his words came from the bottom of his heart, Ye Chen smiled slightly and said: "Alright, go quickly."

Zhang Zhang Ermao bowed ninety degrees to Ye Chen and said gratefully: "Thank you, Master Ye, then I will go to see Master Hong Wu first!"

Zhang Zhang Ermao, with an excited heart, took a taxi to Tianxiang Mansion.

Just as excited as him was the male sales associate named Vivian in the Hermes store.

Just a moment ago, the store manager, witnessed by all his colleagues in the store, calculated the sales commission for this order today.

With a total allocation amount of over 996,000 yuan, his commission was as high as 298,000.

This order not only broke the store's highest record for allocation amount but also broke the store's highest commission record.

Vivian was naturally extremely excited. Without thinking, he immediately took out his phone and called a friend who worked in a used car dealership, planning to buy a used Porsche 718 sports car he had long admired.

Although this sports car is the cheapest Porsche model, with a price of only several hundred thousand RMB, it is a very noble existence in the eyes of most fashionable young people.

Especially on the streets at midnight, the moment the convertible top is opened, it makes many young people feel a unique and noble atmosphere.

Therefore, in some coastal cities, this car is definitely the most popular model in rental agencies.

As a sales associate for a top luxury brand, Vivian has always prided himself on being at the forefront of fashion. Being WeChat friends with many wealthy ladies and big spenders, what he craved most was to drive his own Porsche 718.

Buying a brand-new Porsche 718, including options, would cost around 700,000 to 800,000 yuan, not counting the tens of thousands in purchase tax, which was indeed difficult for Vivian to afford.

Although his income as a sales associate is not low, because he likes high consumption in his daily life, it is difficult for him to save money every month.

A used car is much easier. He set his sights on a two-year-old used 718. The color and configuration met his requirements, and the price was just over 600,000.

Vivian had about 100,000 yuan in savings. He calculated that once the commission of nearly 300,000 was issued next month, he could pay half of the down payment first and bring the Porsche 718 home.

After his friend at the used car dealership answered the phone, he hurriedly asked: "Xiao Bin, has that red 718 in your store been sold yet?"

The other party said: "It hasn't been sold yet, but a customer is already preparing to place a deposit."

Vivian asked anxiously: "When did they place the deposit?! Did they pay the money?!"

The other party said: "It seems they paid an intention deposit of 10,000 yuan, saying they would finalize it within today."

Upon hearing this, Vivian immediately breathed a sigh of relief and said hurriedly: "Since it's just an intention deposit, it's fine! Xiao Liu, don't sell this car to him, sell it to me, I want it!"
