FID – Chapter 515

Chapter 515: A Scourge of a Millennium Couldn’t Die So Easily

  ”Young Boss Qian has repeatedly uttered provocations here, without any semblance to a guest. My family can’t afford to greet such a Big Buddha, please!”

  Because of Qian Wanjin’s deliberate provocation and fanning the flames, the living room was crowded with people. A cacophony of swearing ensued, and it created a lively scene.

  Looking at Liu Huai, who was sitting in the main, his face was so ugly that there was no way to describe it in words.

  ”Shut up!” With a stern shout, Liu Huai looked at Qian Wanjin coldly, biting every word, “Someone, come here, see him off!”

  ”Relax, Patriarch Liu,” Qian Wanjin said unhurriedly after seeing enough excitement. “Actually, there is one more thing that I want to talk to you about on my visit today. I heard that Patriarch Liu fell sick in bed this time, and it is related to the batch of goods you just brought back, did I hear that correctly?”

  Liu Huai’s chest rose and fell violently, and he nearly broke his posterior molars.

  Qian Wanjin is doing it on purpose!

  He only brought up the fabric issue when he was about to be kicked out of the house. Why did he wait until he was pissed off before he spoke about it?

  ”My Liu family did buy a batch of goods, but it doesn’t seem to have anything to do with Young Boss Qian’s family!” How dare he play the devil in his territory, and cast his covetous eyes on his batch of fabrics! He’d let him have a taste of what it meant to be anxious!

  ”It turned out to be true, I thought the rumors outside were just rumors.” Qian Wanjin nodded in all seriousness. “The Liu family used to do tea business, but now you can’t anymore, so do you want to switch to cloth business? Patriarch Liu, although I am a junior, I would like to take the liberty to advise you that you should be careful when changing careers. Differences in profession can make you feel worlds apart. Look, look at what happened to you this time. Something went wrong, right? You spent such a fortune to import a batch of special-grade goods, but everything ended up with problems. It is because you are unfamiliar with this trade, so you were pitted. You must take this lesson as a warning in the future. Don’t be gullible and trust others easily. If you really want to buy fabric, you can look for Fu Yuzheng. She is also in this business. We are all in the capital, and we are acquainted with each other, so if you do business with her, she will definitely not swindle you.”

  After speaking, Qian Wanjin stood up and shook the folds of his clothes. “Patriarch Liu is not feeling well, so I won’t stay any longer. It just so happens that I also need to rush to the cloth shop to help sort out the goods, the special fabrics, that will be transported to the palace. I won’t disturb you any further, farewell.”

  ”Stop right there! What did Young Boss Qian just say?” Liu Hai’s eyes turned vaguely red, and he tightly grasped the armrests on both sides.

  ”Oh, I said I’m going to help Fu Yuzheng sort out the special fabrics and send them to the palace tomorrow. It just so happened that she planned to buy silk fabrics for dyeing this time, but she didn’t expect that the supply wasn’t enough. Fortunately, there is a batch of stock in the warehouse, which can be used at this time. Otherwise, things would have escalated, and that huge deal isn’t something we couldn’t afford to take responsibility for.”

  Liu Huai watched Qian Wanjin leave arrogantly, and slumped softly in his seat. He stared blankly in front of him, his eyes darkened, and he passed out again.

  He initially thought that Qian Wanjin came to ask for something. He even entertained the thought of clinging to a life and death struggle. He would let both sides suffer irreparable damage and also let his enemies share a piece of his misery and despair. He never expected that everything was all in vain. 

  They had long been ready!

  On the surface, they pretended to be helpless, making them mistakenly think that they were at their wits’ end, yet gloated in the dark. In fact, it was just a deliberate attempt to mislead them with prevarication and confusion.

  Like a cat teasing a mouse, they just led them on a merry goose chase!

  In this big play, only he, Liu Huai, played the jumping clown!

  The other members of the Liu family were also stunned by the information revealed in Qian Wanjin’s words.

  So, they specially sent spies to keep an eye on Fu Yuzheng’s little cloth shop, yet all they got was fake news?

  So was it a smoke bomb that their opponent released to fool them?

  They also wanted to step on the special supplier position this time, seize the opportunity to turn over and trample on Liu Yusheng, Liu Zhixia and Feng Qingbai.

  Even before that, they had been complacent that their plot was about to succeed.

  In the end, nothing happened at all.

  What happened was that their Liu family has suffered a crushing defeat.

  They lost horribly.

  ”Patriarch, it turns out that they were already prepared, so what should we do! … Patriarch, Patriarch!” Someone subconsciously sought Liu Huai’s direction. He turned to look, only to find that their Patriarch had passed out of anger.

  Xinliu Manor.

  Qian Wanjin got off the carriage and rushed straight to the hall, saying, “Lucky Nannan, it’s a pity you didn’t come with me today. Otherwise, you would have watched a big show. You have no idea how angry that immortal Liu Huai was with me. If eyes could kill, I’m afraid he would have killed me hundreds or thousands of times. Unfortunately, I dared not speak more to anger him. Seeing how his old thick face enduring not to change shapes, I really feel good.”

  That old immortal used to play tricks in front of his father. Oh, how the wheel of fortune turns. His present predicament served him right.

  In the hall, Liu Yusheng was helping Grandma Liu and Chen Xiulan cut fabrics to sew baby clothes.

  Hearing Qian Wanjin’s chortles, it was obvious he was ecstatic that his voice almost fluttered. She smiled. If she had tagged along, that old fox would have easily seen through her true intentions.

  Only by not showing up and creating the illusion that she didn’t really care much could let Liu Huai unable to figure out whether she wanted to obtain that batch of fabrics or not.

  Looking at the person who had already reached the door, she asked smilingly, “You look in fine feather, happy?”

  ”I can’t be any happier.” Qian Wanjin walked into the hall, sat down next to Liu Yusheng, and said, “You said retreat for the sake of advancing, so I deliberately didn’t mention the matter of buying that old immortal’s batch of fabrics in front of him. I only told them that Yuzheng had long been prepared, and even if she could not acquire the fabrics, it would not affect the transaction this time. That old immortal maintained his arrogance, but after hearing my words, his face dramatically changed. Even dyeing isn’t that fast.”

  Liu Yusheng couldn’t help but give Qian Wanjin a big smile right away. “Well done, Xiao Jinzi!”

  She only said one sentence: retreat to advance. Qian Wanjin came up with what to say and do, and the whole thing was dealt with. It could be said that it was seamless. It was truly perfect.

  And Qian Wanjin’s nondescript metaphor of dyeing made Grandma Liu laugh with Chen Xiulan. “I heard that Liu Huai was so angry that he vomited blood before and couldn’t get up from the bed. You’ve compounded his anger, can he get better?”

  ”Grandma, Aunt Liu, you don’t have to sympathize with him. He’s the scourge of a millennium. Liu Huai can’t die so early.”

  Grandpa Liu, who was focusing on playing chess next to them, looked at Liu Dalin and said, “Is it really useful to run to their home to piss him off like this? What if he was angered to a point where he wants everyone to perish together?”

  Liu Yusheng smiled and said, “It might be possible for someone with a temperament, but Liu Huai definitely won’t do so. First of all, he is a person who puts his interests first, and secondly, he is also the clan patriarch. There might be things that he is willing to do, but his family aren’t. Those people are accustomed to being pampered with brocade clothes and jade food, and now that the family is in such a dire crisis, threatening their interests, how could they allow Liu Huai to act willfully? There’s bound to be trouble.”
