Chapter 45

Cough cough…

Upon returning to the villa, Bai Yang unconsciously coughed a few times….

“The air quality here can’t be compared to the air in that world, I actually felt uncomfortable back here after staying over there for some time.”

While he mumbled, he sank into the bed as soft as marshmallow as if he had no bones in his body.

His mind was all messed up right now; the gory scene appeared in his mind from time to time, another second later, he was worried about the problem surrounding the villagers, all the worries now squeezing into his head….

He thought and thought, forcing himself to stay awake and realized that there seemed to be a lot of things waiting for him to settle them; with that many things on the list, he suddenly had no idea on where to start first.

Bah, I’m a rich man now! So why do I have to do everything myself? I can just pay someone to do the things for me! Find someone to do my errands! Why am I troubling myself over problems that could be solved with money… Hmmm, if there is something, the secretary will do them for me, when it’s free, I can do the secretary…. Ehem, stop, I already have Xiao Mao…..!

The thing was who was the suitable candidate that could help him do his work? After thinking for some time, he smacked his head as he figured out something; Xiong Da! That bear-like human was definitely the most suitable candidate!

I will just buy him and the whole plant over, and I will become the boss, I can do what I want and how I want. Xiong Da is just a simple guy, he wouldn’t ask much about what I’m going to do. Besides, the plant itself is quite isolated and huge, it fits my need perfectly….

With this in his mind, he took out his phone to call Xiong Da, only to find that his phone’s battery died out….

A few minutes after he inserted the charger to the phone, he switched it on and before he could even do anything, a massive amount of notifications about missed calls and messages came charging in, forcefully making his phone lag out!

He speechlessly waited for a few moments before the phone finally returned to normal and Bai Yang took a quick glance. He noticed that there were a lot of notifications but they came from only a few people.

Among the missed calls, two had come from his dad, one from Liu Qingshan, two from Song Guotao, five from Xiong Da and the rest were from freaking Song Yidao…..

As for the messages, apart from two garbage messages from the telecom company, they were all from Song Yidao, all in the same pattern, asking if Bai Yang was there if he was free and to have him call Song Yidao as soon as possible….

But family was of utmost importance, so Bai Yang returned the call to his father right away.

“Dad, you’re looking for me?”

It was best to continue his role as a good son, after all, it was not easy for his parents to raise him.

“Nothing much just wanted to tell you that I’ve already transferred the third installment into your account, so you can check.”

“Ok.”

If his dad did not bring this up, he would’ve forgotten it.

“Oh ya, where did you go yesterday? How dare you miss my call?”

“Ermmm, I was too tired after work and I forgot that my phone’s battery died.”

He scratched his head and started sprouting nonsense.

“Brat, when will you really grow up? Better take care of yourself out there, don’t make us worry.”

“Yes yes yes, you are right. Anything else dad?”

Dad, your son, I, am very busy, can you stop wasting my time?

Despite complaining, he was still very patient, be it how busy he was, he would never grow impatient at his parents.

“Hehe, son, I have good news, wanna give it a guess?”

Bai Jianjun suddenly said mysteriously.

Bai Yang widened his eyes and shouted, “Dad, are you going to give birth to a new child with mum? Uh oh, that’d be great!”

“Get out of here! What are you even thinking, let me get to the point. I’m rich! The wood materials I bought from you, I made them into expensive furniture, more than 10 sets of them, and after selling only 9 sets, I’ve already made 48 million! The remaining ones were already booked by someone else and all I need is to wait for the money! Hey…. Don’t you think there are a lot of rich men out there? I feel like this little factory of mine is really just a child’s play!”

Bai Yang was speechless and he thought, So you are now bragging this to me?

“Ehem, first, congratulation dad, and second, can I now stay at home and be a useless fool that will continue living uselessly using the wealth you accumulated?”

“Hey, start dreaming, stop your foolish thought. I want to know if there is any more wood of that same quality in your company right now.”

Bai Jianjun did not feel embarrassed at all and he asked straightforwardly, what was there to be embarrassed of?

Bai Yang knew that his father had the sweet taste of it now, and he replied, “Not at the moment, but if you need it, I can ask the company to import some again, except that you will have to wait for a bit. I will call you when the materials arrive?”

“Good good, but the payment?”

“Just like last time!”

Replied Bai Yang without even thinking!

Dad dad, only your son would guarantee you such a brain dead trade, you are only receiving this special treatment because you are my father….

“Brat, you sure it’s fine?”

“If you’re worried, I can organize a meal between you and the boss when he is free so that the two of you can talk about it.”

Bai Yang hurriedly found himself an excuse, his dad was no fool; the man knew it crystal clear in his heart, so he discreetly brought this up right now.

Guess I will have to find someone to pretend that he is the boss of the company to maintain this lie, a lie will have to be reinforced by even more lies, this is really tiring….

“Okay, I’ll be getting back to work now. See you dad.”

After hanging up the phone, Bai Yang scratched his head again and thought, Is selling furniture that lucrative? A few sets of furniture for so much money?

But he understood what his dad meant when he said that there were so many rich people in this world; they only bought the most expensive and best without bothering much about the price, and he was basically doing the same….

Anyway, he got back to his own important matters, cast everything else aside and rang Xiong Da, “Hey, Boss Xiong, you’re looking for me?”

Let me call him first and gain the advantage of making the first move, hehe….

“Oh hey, Boss Bai! You’re really a busy man! Ehem, the thing is, I’m bored so I’m thinking of treating you a meal?”

Do you think I will buy that? You are definitely trying to get more orders from me because you can’t find any customers, but this is what I want!

“Oh? I’m free now, how about the Imperial Palace Fine Cuisine we went to before?”

Of course he was free, he was here specifically for Xiong Da….

On the other end, Xiong Da’s voice stuttered right away and he said again, “Boss Bai, how about we go to the outskirt’s Farmland House? Its environment is good and their food is good.”

“Okay, just tell me a place and I will be on my way….”

In Giant Bear Metal Processing Plant, Xiong Da put the phone down with a slightly clueless mind, as he felt that everything was going so smoothly that it became unrealistic.

But after looking at the faces that were staring at him, he clenched his fist, his bone let out explosive noise as he clenched and he said, “Brothers, I’ve managed to ask Boss Bai out, and it will all depend on ourselves if we want to get more business from him!”

“Brother Xiong, just sit back and watch, we will definitely get more business from Boss Bai, even if we have to pay dearly for it!”

The muscle men around shouted, as if they were going to enter the battlefield once more.

“Get into the van and let’s go!”

Xiong Da waved his hand, like a general that was leading his men charging into the battlefield!

As for Bai Yang, he was very speechless after hanging up the call, Why are you so stingy? Did you not just earn more than a few million from me back then? Can’t you just treat me in a place that is slightly more high class?

After setting up his GPS navigator, Bai Yang locked the door and went straight to the destination, in that ostentatious Bugatti.

He arrived in half an hour, and he realized that it was a little farm that was located right beside a lake and a mountain, the environment was really good.

Without bothering the bystanders who were looking at his car, Bai Yang looked right towards Xiong Da and another few who were all standing at the entrance like some mafias. He closed the car’s door and walked towards them.

“Boss Bai, sorry for the inconvenience, please forgive us for that. This way please, the food is ready, you who are always eating on luxury food needs something else less heavy to balance your diet.”

When a giant acted so polite and nice, he would give off this weird feeling, anyhow, Bai Yang couldn’t stand it.

“Heh, let’s see what are you up to!”

Bai Yang was definitely smart, from the looks of it, he already knew that they were plotting something, he was not afraid of them playing dirty; after all, he had already experienced a lot of huge events, and even if there was no more options left, he could still disappear into the thin air!

After entering the booked room, all kinds of lighter food were served quickly!

Bai Yang was stunned, as the food was very light, there was no meat at all, what were these guys doing?

“Manager, bring us some beer!”

Xiong Da stood up and shouted, he seemed to be very generous in ordering the food but his expression showed that he was not genuinely being generous….

“Wait wait wait, I’m driving, I can’t drink!”

Bai Yang hurriedly stopped Xiong Da, as this was clearly plotted!

“Ermm, then Boss Bai can drink tea, while we drink beer!”

Xiong Da awkwardly said and signaled the waiter to bring them a pot of tea.

Can you be any more obvious than this?

Bai Yang was speechless.

He tapped his finger on the table later and smiled, “Fine, let’s skip all of these, I’m tired of watching your acting even if you are not tired. Tell me, what do you want?”

Xiong Da smiled awkwardly at Bai Yang, before nodding at two other big guys and they both left after closing up the door.

Bai Yang vaguely heard them chasing the waiter away after that….

Right after that, Xiong Da sat on the chair uneasily and embarrassedly said to Bai Yang, “We need money, a lot of it….”

“And?”

Bai Yang nodded to express his empathy on this matter, I’m in need of money as well, even Bill Gates needs money…..

But he too, was very puzzled, What is this? Someone is delivering a pillow to me just when I get sleepy?

But after thinking it through, he felt that things were not right and he asked, “Are you messing around with me? You earned at least a few million at least from me back then, and you’re telling me you are in need of urgent money?”

“Something happened, that amount of money is far from enough, so….”

Xiong Da smiled bitterly as he scratched his head, to the point that he almost scrapped away his skin.

“Fine, then?”

Bai Yang asked again.

“That’s how it is, we’re just figuring if there’s anything we can do for you, Boss Bai.”

Xiong Da’s face flushed greatly; to have such a muscular and explosive man to throw his pride away and beg for business, it was really a difficult thing to do.

“So you are not trying to borrow money from me?”

“Ermm, no… We just want to do business with you again…”

At this point, Xiong Da turned towards a brother standing at the side.

The brother on the other hand, was about to cry, Big bro, Boss Bai does not seem like a difficult person to talk to, you’re the one that made it so complicated!

“I think… How about you just sell me the whole plant?”

Bai Yang rubbed his fingers on his chin and turned towards Xiong Da.

“Ah?”

Xiong Da couldn’t react in time…..
