Chapter 274 A Business Deal
Lei Xiaohu and Uncle Bao especially liked to stand at the gate of the villa these days, craning their necks and looking forward to seeing someone coming. Whenever someone passed by the gate, they would eagerly ask if they were here to see Zhang Nianzu...
Zhang Nianzu's complexion was getting better and better. It seemed that Lei Tingting's bed was really comfortable. One day, an unfamiliar number called in. As soon as Zhang Nianzu picked up the phone, the other party lowered his voice and said, "It's me."
Zhang Nianzu immediately asked, "Old Chiang?"
Lao Jiang smiled: "I heard it right away. Are you thinking about me so much?"
"Nonsense, besides me, the police are also concerned about you. Where are you? Do you know what you are doing?"
"I'm calling you about this - Ono Taro has an appointment with the drug lord to negotiate tonight. I know the police want to arrest him but have no evidence. If you come and film the meeting between him and the drug lord, then everything will be ready."
Zhang Nianzu asked, "Why don't you just call the police?"
Lao Jiang said, "You know why I followed Xiao Ye. He will give me Xiao Feng's indenture contract only after the deal is successful tonight, so nothing can happen to him tonight. We will deal with him after I get what I want. By then, what I am telling you now and your video will be the evidence for me to get out of this situation. I only trust you!"
Zhang Nianzu said, "How many times have you been threatened by Xiao Ye with that thing? The more you let him taste the sweetness, the less he will give it to you. Don't you understand this principle?"
Lao Jiang smiled bitterly and said, "I understand, but there is a saying that goes, 'drinking poison to quench thirst. I have come this far, and I must seek an end."
Zhang Nianzu knew that it was useless to say more, so he said, "Time and place."
"12 o'clock at night, fruit wholesale market."
Zhang Nianzu was stunned and said, "They really know how to find a place. Did the drug dealers hide the drugs in the fruit and bring them here?"
"I don't know, who are you going to take with you?"
Zhang Nianzu said: "This kind of thing is easiest for me to do alone ."
"I think so too. They will meet in front of Warehouse No. 11. Go find a place to hide first and don't get discovered."
"Don't worry about it." Zhang Nianzu hung up the phone. Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, he ate dinner as usual and returned to his room. After it was completely dark, he quietly left the villa and got in the car. When he drove to the iron gate, he was about to go down to open the door. Li Erhu, who had just finished boxing by the fountain, came over to help him open the door and got in the car naturally. He asked in confusion, "Hey, Uncle San and Ah San are not with you?"
Zhang Nianzu said, "I am going to take care of some personal matters. There is no need to mobilize a large number of troops ."
Li Erhu said "oh" and had no intention of getting off the car.
Zhang Nianzu turned his head and looked at him, saying, "Don't you need to go back to sleep?"
Li Erhu said: "I'll accompany you. It's not safe to be alone."
Zhang Nianzu laughed and said, "Am I unsafe or are you unsafe?"
"More people always mean more strength—" Li Erhu rolled up his sleeves to reveal his arm muscles, grinning, "After all, I've fought four times in a week without losing a single game."
Zhang Nianzu was helpless, and afraid of hurting people’s self-esteem by saying too much, so he drove straight to the fruit wholesale market.
There are many local fruit wholesale outlets, but if you pick out the words "fruit wholesale market" alone, everyone knows that it refers to a specific place. There are no stalls here, only large cold storages. On weekdays, the big vendors who come and go in trucks handle thousands of tons of fruit every day without showing off. Of course, they will sell you one or two pieces, but you have to endure their indifference.
Zhang Nianzu parked the car about a hundred meters away from the market, checked the battery level of his phone, and said to Li Erhu, "Stay in the car."
Li Erhu said, "Brother Nianzu, you don't want to buy some fruit? Everyone has gone off work."
"I'm going to meet a friend."
"Shall I go with you?"
"No need." Zhang Nianzu thought for a moment and said, "No matter what happens inside, don't come out. Wait for me to come back."
Li Erhu was puzzled, but he couldn't force himself to follow, so he had to agree.
Zhang Nianzu jumped into the iron gate of the market. There was a pleasant fruity smell everywhere. There were dim light bulbs hanging at the doors of each cold storage. He searched for a long time before finding Warehouse No. 11. He observed the surroundings and finally came to the door of the warehouse. He touched the iron door with his Midas Touch and used the force to jump to the top of the warehouse. He lowered his body and used the video mode on his mobile phone to get a feel for it. The lights in front of Warehouse No. 11 and Warehouse No. 12 intersected, and if there was anyone moving below, he could still see their faces clearly.
After lurking for a while, someone really showed up. It was Ryuta Izumi Saburo. He moved a table from a corner and placed it there. He also took out two stools and placed them on both sides of the table. The Japanese always pay attention to the sense of ceremony in everything they do. Ono Taro actually arranged the venue in advance for the negotiation with the drug lord...
After a while, a burst of fast footsteps was heard, and about six or seven people came trotting over. Zhang Nianzu lowered his head, but these people did not show their faces under the light. Instead, they concealed their tracks and hid in various corners.
Zhang Nianzu just thought it was fun. Judging from Long Taiquan Saburo's calm expression, these people should have been arranged by him, and the Japanese might have no good intentions.
As soon as 12 o'clock arrived, Ono Taro appeared accompanied by Lao Jiang. The two men just stood there, occasionally whispering a word or two. After waiting for more than ten minutes, no one came to meet them. After a long time, two people finally came to the gate. The one with a long face walked lazily, carrying a plastic bag of shelled peanuts, peeling them and throwing them into his mouth. The man who accompanied him was a man Zhang Nianzu was very familiar with - triangular eyes.
Taro Ono politely gave up his seat to the long-faced man, and then sat down straight, as if he was really going to sign some shopping contract.
The show began and Zhang Nianzu also started filming.
Ono Taro bowed deeply to the other party and said, "This gentleman looks unfamiliar. Why is it not Mr. Bian Shijie who comes to talk to me?"
Triangle Eyes said: "This is the eldest brother of the Bian family, and Bian Shijie is his younger brother."
Ono Taro said, "Because this business has always been conducted by Mr. Bian Shijie and me, please don't mind my question."
The long-faced man said lazily: "Bian Shijie is dead. I am Bian Shikai. Tell me if you have anything to say."
Only then did Zhang Nianzu realize that this person was Bian Shikai. Last time, Bian Shikai only showed up for a moment on Changsheng Street, and he didn't see his appearance clearly.
Taro Ono was shocked at first, then he coughed awkwardly and said, "Well... I had a very pleasant cooperation with Mr. Bian Shijie. It turns out that you are his brother. Nice to meet you. As for the death of Mr. Bian Shijie..." For some reasons, the police did not disclose the news of Bian Shijie's death, so Taro Ono really only found out about it at this moment.
Bian Shikai said impatiently: "Stop talking nonsense. Bian Shijie is doing business with you. The goods he needs are the ones I brought from Yunnan. They are in full weight and you are willing to pay for them. That's why I came to meet you on his behalf. What do you want from me? Are the goods sold out? You're quick!" As he said that, he grabbed a handful of peanuts from the plastic bag and pretended to give them to Ono Taro as if it was a reward.
Ono Taro waved his hands helplessly and said, "That's not the case."
Bian Shikai said: "If you don't buy goods from me, there is no need for us to meet."
Ono Taro said: "Please allow me to introduce the situation first."
"You say." Bian Shikai said boredly while peeling peanuts, "But I have to tell you the truth first. If the quantity you want is less, I am not interested. Besides, I am not coming to the mainland to do business this time."
Ono Taro placed his hands in front of his lower abdomen and said politely: "The business I want to do this time must be of interest to Mr. Bian Shikai."
