Courtyard House: Purchasing Agents' Comeback from the Great Famine

When Wang Feng returned to Villa No. 6, it was already past 8 p.m., and the villa area was still brightly lit.

"Young Master Wang."

The security guard standing guard at the door spotted Wang Feng immediately and bowed to greet him.

Wang Feng nodded to the security guards, then pushed open the villa door and went inside.

Upon entering the villa, only Ninth Master was seen in the living room, holding an account book and doing accounts; no one else was in the living room.

"Young Master Wang."

Ninth Master, who was doing the accounts, heard footsteps, looked up and saw Wang Feng, and quickly stood up.

Wang Feng sat down opposite Ninth Master and gestured for him to sit down, saying, "Let's talk while we're seated."

"Yes, Young Master Wang."

Ninth Master poured Wang Feng a cup of tea. Wang Feng took a small sip before slowly speaking:

"I have already sent a batch of weapons and two million US dollars to the second brother's side. They should be able to resolve the trouble there in a short time. Next, they may start mining the veins on a large scale. However, they are not making any money there. Whether it is buying veins or recruiting miners, it will cost money. If they are short of money, you should provide them with the greatest support."

After a pause, Wang Feng continued, "How much money do we have left? Are we short of funds?"

Upon hearing Wang Feng's nonchalant words, Ninth Master's eyes widened, revealing an expression as if he had seen a ghost.

He knew exactly how far Hong Kong Island was from Hpakant, Myanmar. When they sent a liaison officer there, it usually took three or four days to get there. But Young Master Wang didn't even take four days for a round trip. Did he have a private jet to fly to Hpakant?

However, since Wang Feng didn't say anything, he didn't dare to ask any more questions. But in his heart, Wang Feng was becoming more and more mysterious.

Seeing Ninth Master lost in thought, Wang Feng waved at him and said, "Ninth Master, I asked you a question. What are you thinking about?"

"Oh, ah."

Master Jiu snapped out of his daze and quickly said, "Young Master Wang, don't worry. We have enough money here right now. Our food processing plant is generating a considerable income every month. I believe it won't be long before our garment factory starts making a profit. It'll be more than enough to cover our expenses here and the mining operations at Second Brother's place."

Upon hearing this, Wang Feng nodded in satisfaction. It was good that things were profitable in Hong Kong. He didn't ask for much; as long as the money from the business here could be used to purchase jadeite and supply his second brother's mining operations, he would be content.

"Ninth Master, during this time, go and ask the remaining nine hundred security guards if any of them are willing to go to Myanmar. Second Brother's side needs to recruit a lot of people, but the core force must be people from our side. Those who are willing to go must be given a full settlement allowance."

"Yes, Young Master Wang, I will make the arrangements tomorrow," Ninth Master replied with a bow.

Wang Feng finished his tea in one gulp, stood up, and said:

"I'll leave everything here and in Myanmar to you. I'll be leaving Hong Kong Island tomorrow night to return to Beijing. If you encounter anything you can't handle, just stop and focus on your own safety. We'll deal with it once I get here."

"Yes, Young Master Wang."

Wang Feng nodded, didn't chat with Ninth Master for long, and went back to his room to wash up and go to sleep.

He hadn't slept well for several days in a row, so he needed to get a good night's sleep tonight. He had to rush back to Beijing tomorrow night; what a life of toil!

......

Early the next morning.

Wang Feng was awakened by Ninth Master's knocking. After getting dressed and washing up, he went downstairs to have breakfast.

After breakfast, he went to visit his father-in-law, Lou Bancheng, and brought him three cases of ginseng and tiger bone wine, which made Lou Bancheng and Tan Yali very happy.

These past few days, they have been following Wang Feng's instructions and drinking one or two ginseng and tiger bone wines every night before going to bed. The medicinal effects of this wine are surprisingly good. After only a few days of drinking it, the two of them clearly feel more and more energetic, and even their sex life is incredibly comfortable.

At noon, Wang Feng had lunch with his father-in-law and mother-in-law at Villa No. 8 and then said goodbye to them.

Upon hearing this, both of them felt a little reluctant to part. Tanya Li said with some concern:

"Wang Feng, you must be careful when you go back to Beijing. I heard that the checks are very strict lately. Also, after you return to Beijing, you must take good care of our son. We, his parents, are not by his side, and now our son can only rely on you in Beijing."

Wang Feng nodded solemnly and agreed: "Mom, don't worry, I will give my son a good talking-to. When the time is right, I will bring my son and the others over."

Hearing Wang Feng's promise, Tan Yali wiped away her tears: "Hey, Wang Feng, I believe you will treat our son well. You and our son have to work harder. Jingru has had her baby for so long, and our son's belly hasn't shown any signs of pregnancy."

At this point, Tan Yali pointed to her chest: "Mom's worried about this."

Wang Feng nodded: "Mom, don't worry, my son and I will work hard and try to bring you good news next time we come over."

"Um."

After finishing his meal, Wang Feng returned to Villa No. 6, took a nap in his room, greeted Ninth Master and gave him some instructions, and then left the Repulse Bay villa area alone. He took a taxi and went to the New Territories.

......

Two days later.

When Wang Feng returned to Beijing, he did not go back to Courtyard No. 95 immediately, but instead headed towards Courtyard No. 28.

It's a little past six in the morning. Wang Feng arrived outside Beijing at one o'clock last night and has already taken a nap in his spatial dimension.

If he can speed up in the future, he can travel from Beijing to Hong Kong Island in one night, which will be more convenient and faster.

This trip took less than ten days in total, from Beijing to Hong Kong Island, then from Hong Kong Island to Myanmar, then from Myanmar back to Hong Kong Island, and then back to Beijing. All in all, it was only nine and a half days.

He had originally planned to be away for a month, but he didn't expect the trip to go so smoothly and that he would receive such a big surprise.

Wang Feng's focus has now shifted to the second brother's side. Currently, there are basically no people mining jade veins in Myanmar. As long as the second brother and his group can establish a foothold there, they might be able to monopolize all the large mines there. Directly mining veins in Myanmar will not only save him a lot of money, but also significantly increase the quantity.

From now on, he only needs to collect the goods every now and then; other miscellaneous matters can be handled by Ninth Master and Second Master.
