Father is a villainous Buddhist disciple? He'll just be beaten into the light of the righteous

Zhao Tong's eyes flashed, and then he smiled and said, "Boss lady, how would I know what kind of goods these are? I just asked my friends about the ins and outs of this business."

The proprietress clapped her hands in affirmation, "Then your friend must be referring to that batch of goods from Lingdu, but you can't get that source now, as Lingdu has stopped production."

"Production halted?" Zhao Tong asked, feigning surprise. "Why? Are sales poor?"

"What?" the proprietress clicked her tongue. "Lingdu's goods have dedicated supply channels. We..." she waved her hand, "can't get any goods at all."

Zhao Tong was taken aback. "A dedicated supply channel?"

"That's right!" The proprietress seemed to be a gossip herself, and couldn't help but chatter on. "Yes, Lingdu's products are all supplied by the distributors and stores he designated."

"He won't supply any other suppliers, no matter who they are."

The proprietress snorted and said, "I saw that their goods were selling quite well before, and I was planning to buy some, but they just wouldn't supply me with the goods."

She clapped her hands. "Don't you think that makes sense?"

"This stuff is pretty good; if a lot of people take it, he'll make money too, won't he?"

"I don't know what she's thinking."

"Tsk, you guys have no idea, even he doesn't have many authorized distributors. How can he possibly make any money?"

Liang Yun asked curiously, "Didn't you go and ask them?"

"It's really strange that they wouldn't make money even if they had the chance."

The proprietress lowered her voice and said slyly, "We were indeed quite puzzled before, but problems arose two months ago, didn't they?"

"Is there a problem?"

The proprietress clapped her hands and said, "I heard someone died from playing games, and it was a ten-year-old child who died."

"The parents started making a scene."

"Hiss... I really don't know what happened after that."

The proprietress thought for a moment, then shook her head and said, "However, since then, Lingdu's products have been discontinued, and there are almost no of their products on the market now."

"Even if there are any, they're just leftovers from before."

Liang Yun asked, "Big sister, do you know who used to sell this product?"

The proprietress chuckled. "You really want it?" She waved her hand. "Don't even think about it, you definitely won't get it."

"That's not true." Liang Yun chuckled as well. "Our boss is no stranger to money." She pointed at Shen Jiyuan and said, "Look at our boss's outfit; it's enough to open several toy stores."

"You mean he's short of money?"

The proprietress was indeed intimidated.

Shen Jiyuan's outfit certainly didn't look like that of an ordinary person. Although his face couldn't be seen because of the mask, his demeanor didn't seem like that of someone who came to the wholesale market to buy goods.

The proprietress's expression hardened, and she lowered her voice to ask, "So what's going on here...?"

Liang Yun said sincerely, "Boss lady, to be honest, we don't actually want to open a toy store. We want to open a factory and make it bigger and stronger."

"Hey..." she whispered in the landlady's ear, "You can tell just by looking at our boss, he's fallen in love with another woman and is resisting the arranged marriage within the family."

"I've already had the baby, but things have been tense between me and my family ever since."

"Isn't this also because I want to achieve something myself, so that I can give my family a way out?"

The proprietress's eyes widened. She suddenly turned her head and looked Shen Jiyuan up and down, her gossipy eyes then darting towards Shen Ji in the stroller.

He suddenly realized and made a sound of understanding.

Liang Yun continued, "We had heard before that Lingdu's products were very popular, so we wanted to find a few samples to compare with other products on the market."

"But we can't find a sample no matter what we do."

"I just heard that this wholesale market has some stock, so I came to try my luck."

Liang Yun patted the proprietress's hand, "Big sister, our boss's surname is Shen. In Jincheng, there are many families with the surname Shen..." She stopped there.

He only gave the proprietress a look that was left unsaid.

The proprietress was momentarily stunned. Aren't there quite a few wealthy people with the surname Shen in Jincheng? Which Shen family is she referring to?

But having spent so much time in this chaotic place, she naturally knew when to ask questions and when not to.

So I didn't ask any further.

"Big sister, as long as you can help us find a source of goods, you definitely won't suffer any losses in the future."

Although the proprietress wouldn't completely believe their nonsense, a businessperson wouldn't turn away every potential customer.

True or false, a one-in-half probability.

There's at least a 50% chance.

If you don't do it, you won't even have a 50% chance.

The proprietress smiled and said, "Young lady, I can't find the source of the goods for you, but if you want samples, I can sell you a set."

As she spoke, she took a set of toys from the corner of the shelf behind her. "I bought this from an acquaintance before. I also wanted to see how it differed from the things I sell in my store."

"I only bought three sets in total. I gave one away and took one apart myself."

"Here you are."

"This is the only set left, I'll sell it to you."

Liang Yun smiled and said, "That's wonderful, boss lady, thank you so much."

"How much does this cost?"

"Just give me 3,200 yuan, don't say I'm lying to you. Their goods are just expensive. I bought them for 3,000 yuan each, and I'm only making 200 yuan off you."

Liang Yun didn't argue with her about the hundred or two hundred yuan. She quickly had Zhao Tong pay the bill before leaving the shopkeeper's store with the Ultraman toy set.

I originally wanted to wander around some more, but...

"Dad, have you forgotten about us being followed before?" Shen Ji asked, frowning as he pinched the little yellow duck in front of his bicycle shed.

Shen Jiyuan was taken aback. "What?"

Shen Ji held the quacking duck up to Shen Jiyuan's face and said, "We've been wandering around inside for so long, and we've also asked the landlady about Lingdu."

"This place is a mixed bag; nobody knows if there are any informants here."

"If we keep turning around, we might alert the enemy."

Shen Jidao said, "We've already obtained Lingdu's goods, and we know that those Ultraman figures are most likely produced by Lingdu. Let's go to Lingdu to investigate first."

"Well……"

Shen Ji stroked his chin. "Uncle Zhao, I'm afraid the police station will have to investigate the matter of Lingdu's designated distributor."

After all, only police officers have the legitimate reason and qualification to conduct inspections.

"As for the source of goods for Lingdu, I'll go with my dad."

Zhao Tong immediately objected, "No way!"

These father and son aren't police officers, so what if they encounter danger?

Liang Yun shared the same attitude.

Shen Jiyuan crossed his arms and said, "Now that you've already dragged us into this, isn't it a bit too late to say no?"

Zhao Tong said, "Those are two different things."

Shen Ji smiled and said, "Uncle Zhao, it's alright, I think... we don't need to go ourselves."

"The answer should come to you automatically."
