"Hahahaha, it seems you are still the same Xiao Chen as before." Master Ba was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.

"How are you, Master Eight? I haven't seen you in the past two years. How is business?" I said with a slight smile.

"It's not bad. It's no problem to make several million a year. Anyway, it's enough to eat and drink. I bought a new villa in Haicheng. It's been decorated and I'm living in it." Ba Ye said.

"Oh, that's okay." I raised my eyebrows.

"How can I compare with you? I am just reselling clothes. The sales volume of swimsuits in Haicheng is basically the same, not much better. Today's young people buy swimsuits online when they go out, and few go to physical stores.

There are a lot of them. Even in tourist areas, if you want to buy swimsuits temporarily, the low-priced ones are basically the most popular ones.

, for example, men’s swimming trunks, which have small profits but quick turnover, are the most purchased. As for women’s swimsuits, to be honest, sales have not increased much. In the past two years, they have even dropped a bit. Maybe in a few years,

I won’t do it anymore. If I can’t earn even one or two million at the end of the year, then what else will I do?” Ba Ye said.

"You have been in this business for many years, so you have some savings," I said.

"Even though I have a few houses and a villa, I don't actually have much savings. And then I gave birth to two sons. You said it would be better for my sons to live up to their expectations in the future. If they don't live up to their expectations and continue to live in poverty, I won't be able to die a happy death."

Grandpa gave a wry smile.

Ba Ye is not young anymore, he is in his forties, and his two sons are probably in their teens. He is still somewhat famous in this area of ​​Haicheng, but I heard a long time ago that Ba Ye is quitting

Jianghu is doing business in a serious manner, and with the crackdown on crime in the past two years, who dares to have enough to eat and have nothing to do to affect social security.

"Come, drink tea." I picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea for Mr. Ba.

"Xiao Chen, you used to work for Zhenmei Company. Now that you've arrived in Shanghai, you should know a lot of big shots, right? Zhou Yaosen is your father-in-law this time. For such a large listed group company, your world won't be yours from now on?"

My words have suddenly changed.

"Eight Master, as the saying goes, starting a business is difficult, but there is another saying that it is easier to start a business than to keep it. Now our company is good and we have several big projects at hand. But think about it, once one of the projects fails, how big the impact will it be?

, the title of a listed group company sounds great, but once some negative news appears, the stock market and assets will shrink immediately, so now, although I look good on the surface, you don’t know what I actually shoulder

How much responsibility and pressure." I smiled awkwardly and continued.

"So much pressure? Are you very busy?" Master Ba frowned.

"Not only is I busy, there are many things that cannot be settled, and I have to do it myself. My father-in-law looks at the results, not your process. In addition, there is a big project in hand now, and I am still the chairman, so the risks that need to be avoided are only

It has greatly increased, and many things cannot be postponed. Do I want to give myself a holiday, and sometimes I have to deal with some things." I said.

If you sit as chairman and do nothing, then of course it will be easy, but how is this possible? Since I arrived in Magic City and was assigned to the project site of Magic Town, I have been very busy, unless it is during the holidays.

Only then can I relax. After the project started, things have been more complicated. Only after this year, things got slightly better. But it was also for the sake of creating glory, and I dealt with many difficult problems, including some things with Longteng Technology, but it was good.

Now, all this has passed.

"It seems that if you want to make more money, you have to spend more time and energy. You are not like me. I purchase and then sell. Anyway, I have people in each store. To put it bluntly, it is selling goods. It is relatively simple.

." Ba Ye nodded understandingly.

"Master Ba, let's have something here tonight," I said.

"Xiao Chen, it's nice to live here, but when you talk about the food, you can only say it's so-so. It's rare for you to come here once. How about I take you to a famous hotel in Haicheng for a meal? You have to know that it specializes in food.

There is a big difference between those who specialize in accommodation and those who specialize in accommodation." Mr. Ba said hurriedly.

"Is it far?" I said.

"It's not far from the Highbury Hotel. The seafood there is excellent. I'll treat you to a nice meal." Ba Ye said with a smile.

"Okay." I nodded.

Soon, Mr. Ba and I walked out of the room. It was getting dark outside. We walked straight to the parking lot. At this moment, I saw the thin man I saw in the afternoon walking towards me, and

When he saw Mr. Ba and me, he showed a surprised look.

"First, sir!" the thin man shouted nervously and walked up to me.

"What should I say?" I looked at the thin man with a half-smile.

"You, you said you would help Mr. Xu this afternoon, do you still keep your words?" The thin man said nervously.

"Mr. Xu? The man who was cuckolded is named Xu?" I raised my eyebrows.

Of course I know that Xu Kun's surname is Xu, but I am pretending not to know it now, just to let this thin man have the illusion that I don't know Xu Kun at all.

"Yes." The thin man smiled awkwardly.

"Well, my big brother and I are going out to eat. It's already dinner time. How about we talk about this matter after I finish eating?" I said.

I won't agree to Xu Kun right away. What I want is to fish. I need to fish first, so that Xu Kun and the thin man can be more convinced of me.

"Here, this is our Mr. Xu's business card. If you come back, you can call him. But we were deceived this time. I hope you can help us." The thin man continued.

"Cheated? How come you were cheated?" I looked at the thin man in confusion.

"Wait, wait until you come back." The thin man handed me his business card and continued.

"Got it." I nodded.

Soon, the thin man said goodbye and left, and Master Ba and I also arrived at the parking lot.

"Master Ba, please excuse me. I didn't even have time to rent a car when I got here. I'm afraid I have to drive you to take me to eat." I said with a smile.

"What are you talking about? I'll pick you up and have a good meal later. I'll arrange for my brothers to take you back." Mr. Ba smiled and took out a car key. An Audi A8 in the parking lot flashed its front headlights.

.

Soon, I sat in the passenger seat, Master Ba started the car, and we drove away from the hotel.

Along the way, the sea breeze was blowing, and I looked at the scenery of the seaside road outside, which inevitably brought back some memories. When I came to discuss business with Su Ling, Pan Jing, and the others, Mr. Ba even made us drink. After that, Mr. Ba and I became friends.

Already.

"Mr. Chen, after dinner later, I will take you to the venue to have a look. The venue we have here is quite beautiful. If you like it, I can book you a night. Anyway, you come out to relax, which is rare."

I said while driving.

"Is there still such a sex market now?" I asked.
