A small bracelet, and someone actually offered two million for it, and it’s still negotiable?

This almost made Old Ye’s jaw drop. Not long ago, he still wanted to ask Tang Zhendong: Where did you get such a shabby bracelet? It’s so ugly, did you pick it up somewhere?

This ugly bracelet, and the old man in front of him offered several million for it. This almost made Old Ye think he was dreaming.

"Hehe, Mr. Rong, you are a connoisseur. This treasure is a feng shui object that I painstakingly acquired. I wear it every day to nurture it. Mr. Rong, I’m sorry."

"Hehe, it’s fine. A gentleman does not take what others love. Since you don’t intend to sell it, I won’t force you. I’m just happy to have seen something I love. Don’t mind, don’t mind."

"Haha, Mr. Old, you’re too polite."

......

On the way out, Old Ye still looked annoyed, "Xiao Tang, Mr. Rong offered at least two million. Why are you so stubborn? Selling it would be great."

"Haha, this isn’t just a regular bracelet; it’s a feng shui talisman. Do you understand what a talisman is? It contains incredible energy. Yesterday, when you were frightened at the Qian family’s mansion, I patted you with this hand, and it’s because this bracelet has the power to calm and soothe that you were able to calm down immediately."

Old Ye slapped his thigh, "I get it. So you need this bracelet to save Qian Wenmei? But that doesn’t make sense. Why did you buy the Five Emperors Coins? I don’t understand."

"The Five Emperors Coins are the best objects to use for saving Qian Wenmei, as they have been handled by thousands of people and are full of positive energy."

......

"Xiao Tang, our business has been great lately, and my brother knows it’s all thanks to you. So I don’t feel right about splitting the profits equally. How about we split it 40-60 or 30-70? You decide, and I’ll follow your lead."

Lately, Old Ye has thoroughly understood Tang Zhendong’s abilities. Even though Tang Zhendong hasn’t started treating Qian Wenmei or changing the fortune of the Qian family’s mansion, just the simple bracelet on his hand is worth several million. Old Ye admits that he has seen countless people, but he was wrong about this one.

"Haha, Brother Ye, you’re my master, and I’m your apprentice. All my skills are from you. It’s already a great honor for me that you don’t take the larger share. How can an apprentice take the larger share?"

"Come on, Xiao Tang, things were different before. I didn’t realize you were a hidden feng shui expert. Your abilities, others may not know, but I do. Even the famous Master Dade, who is well-known in the feng shui community in Haicheng, couldn’t figure out what you saw at a glance. I feel that you will eventually achieve great success. It’s better for me to step back now rather than be kicked out later."

"Brother Ye, I call you Brother Ye not out of disrespect, but out of respect for your character and conduct. When I was selling fruit, I often secretly observed how you interacted with people, how you conversed, and how you read people’s minds. You are a great teacher in these areas. Natural sciences are rigorous, but humanities are the true great learning. I have learned a lot from you, especially in terms of communication and experience. You will always be my teacher in this regard."

Old Ye, seeing how serious Tang Zhendong was, no longer insisted, "Then I’ll accept it with some embarrassment."

"Haha, Brother Ye, don’t say that. Let me explain. For our partnership, you play a crucial role. We are the best team. Don’t underestimate yourself. For example, when we go out and say we are fortune tellers, who do you think people will believe? Definitely you, because you look more like a master. I, on the other hand, look like someone who can’t be trusted. So in our partnership, you are the front man, and I do the behind-the-scenes work. It’s like you are the director, and I am the screenwriter. You get the fame, and I do the work."

Old Ye was also amused by Tang Zhendong’s words, "You’re quite a smooth talker. If I follow your logic, I declare that you have graduated. This flattery is so subtle and makes me feel so good. I understand your intentions. Alright, I take back what I said earlier."

The two walked and chatted, and without realizing it, they headed towards the small alley next to the train station. This was where they started, and it was a place worth remembering.

"Brother Ye, do you remember what I told you the day before yesterday?"

"What was it?"

"Our business is doing well now, and we can’t just sit here waiting for customers. We need a storefront. At least we can move from the street to a proper shop."

"Xiao Tang, I didn’t consider this before, not because I didn’t think about it, but because of my limitations. In the past, doing business relied on deception, but now that you have real skills, we should set up a shop. This will help with repeat customers, make it easier for people to recommend us, and make everyone believe in our capabilities. We won’t be moving from place to place anymore."

"Good, Brother Ye, you said it well. Your summary shows great foresight and insight, saying what I wanted to say but couldn’t."

"Alright, let’s get to the point. Where should we rent a place?"

"Right next to where we set up our stall, there’s a snack shop that’s not doing well and is looking to rent out." Tang Zhendong had this idea after seeing the snack shop that was looking to rent out.

"Snack shop? Our businesses seem quite different." Old Ye was a bit hesitant.

"Who cares if they’re different? We can renovate it. Besides, this is just a starting point. We need to use this point to achieve greater profits."

"Alright, let’s go take a look." Old Ye now seemed to follow Tang Zhendong’s lead.

The snack shop for rent was originally a spicy hot pot shop. Tang Zhendong immediately liked it because there was a large iron bucket at the entrance, with red-hot coals burning inside, roasting the spicy hot pot. Such a shop embodies the principle of fire bringing prosperity, making it hard not to succeed.

"Boss, are you really looking to rent out your shop?" Tang Zhendong walked around inside and then came out to ask.

"Yes, I don’t want to do it anymore. It’s too tiring, and I want to rest." The boss looked tired, but the main reason was that the business wasn’t good. If it were good, no one would want to rent it out, and it wouldn’t feel tiring.

"Tables, chairs, and equipment, plus a year’s rent of 20,000, all included."

"Too expensive. At most 15,000. I don’t want the tables and chairs. Just clear it out."

"Alright, deal." Mobile users, please visit http://m.piaotia.net
