Chapter 128
I Want to Eat Meat (1)
Jiang Xing’s business was still in the development stage. He had spent a lot of money to attract customers; at most, he was just breaking even.
But Jiang Xing was not worried about losing some money in this initial stage. Once the net was cast, turning a profit and getting his investment back would only take a blink of an eye.
But darn! This paratrooper pretty boy was just as wise as him, and had the same long-term vision!
Jiang Xing had spent a lot of money to build his customer base, and that pretty boy just came and sat back while burning money to grab his customers!
The key issue was that the other party still had a lot of money! They were unfazed even after burning that much money.
But Jiang Xing’s reserves weren’t as deep, and he almost died from anger.
After he tried asking around, he found out that this crazy boy didn’t mind burning money because it wasn’t his own, so it didn’t hurt him to spend it.
The money belonged to his in-laws.
The pretty boy was a local whose ancestors came from here, but he got a rich wife and moved away with his whole family.
He came back this time to do big business, and planned on facing Jiang Xing head-on.
Jiang Xing was so angry that he had no appetite for dinner, and took a walk in the yard instead.
It was impossible to compete at burning money, and it was too late to find a rich wife to take care of him.
He could only try a different approach.
Hmph, it’s time to let this brat know that even a mighty dragon cannot defeat a local snake!
Did he live as a jerk all this time for nothing?
Jiang Xing angrily rushed out of the door.
The young and old at home were very worried, but it was a bit awkward to ask. Even if they had asked, they wouldn’t be able to understand, so all they could do was stay quiet and not cause him any trouble.
Around three to four days later, Jiang Xing finally came home.
His eyes and nose were red, and when he came back, he immediately took a hot water bath. When he came out, his beaming face was full of energy.
It seemed that he was in a good mood, but his face looked like he had just cried.
Jiang Xiumei was stunned.
This brat had been a jerk ever since he was young, and got beaten all the time. But he rarely shed any tears.
If he actually cried this time, who knew how wronged he felt?
“Xingxing, did you solve the problem or not?” She asked.
“Mom, don’t worry. As soon as I take matters into my own hands, everything will be a cinch.” He looked like a different person from the guy who was furious the other day.
Jiang Xing was very happy.
He said, “If you want to snatch, then go ahead. Small-time businessmen are very shrewd. Whatever amount of money you burn is going to be your loss. I’ve already thought about this. I’ll let the middlemen get the profit from the price difference and get the goods straight from the customers. This is the most realistic solution.”
“What’s a middleman?”
“The company has now reached the residential districts1. This way, customers can go and send stuff when they come down the building. It’s convenient for thousands of households; they won’t even have to leave their home.”
“Huh? The company can operate directly inside the residential districts? The residential districts in this town?”
“That’s right.” Jiang Xing smiled mysteriously. “I went to the mayor’s office and cried, saying that I would jump off the building if he wouldn’t agree to let me open the company in the residential districts. He had no choice but to agree.”
“Huh???” What kind of business is this? This kind of thing also works? Wouldn’t that make it messy instead?
Jiang Xiumei was stunned.
“Just kidding.” Jiang Xing said. “I just went there carrying the ‘Bravely Upholding Justice’ banner and told him that I needed some help since I encountered some difficulties when starting my business.”
“……”
“This thing is still pretty useful huh.” Jiang Xiumei said.
Well, that’s the way it was. He didn’t even care about losing his face at all.
An adult, crying until snot and tears flowed down.
But Jiang Xing didn’t care.
He patted his chest and said, “I got stabbed in my stomach and got entered into the records. How could it be for nothing?”
Well, whatever the reason was, things were finally done.
He wanted to open a new business, but he had to keep spending money to develop it.
