Zhang Wei already knew that Feng Jun only had a woven bag with him in addition to some so-called lethal weapons when he was caught by the police, but the woven bag was full of stones and dust.
However, the explosive supplier insisted that Feng Jun already had the goods. Anyway, the supplier knew that Zhang Wei’s friend had done him a great favor.
Without their involvement, they probably would have been involved in big trouble.
However, the supplier wasn’t very grateful to them, because they all knew it was a dangerous business. If they could protect the supplier well, they would be safe too.
Feng Jun absolutely wouldn’t tell Zhang Wei the truth, so he smiled. “Do you think that I’ll open a mine alone? They have helpers, so do I.”
Zhang Wei actually already had the answer in his heart, and he asked Feng Jun only to make sure of it.
It wasn’t a surprising answer, so he nodded with a smile. “Glad to know that. I’m simply worried that you didn’t receive the goods. Anyway, I don’t dare to deal with them right now.”
“I understand,” said Feng Jun. Zhang Wei was simply a playboy, and it was very normal that he was afraid of trouble. He wouldn’t mind it and only said with a smile, “Unfortunately, the money I won from you is kept in the police station now.”
“It’s fine. It’s the evidence, and they’ll give it back to you sooner or later,” said
Zhang Wei.
In fact, he didn’t want to be involved in it anymore. Anyway, the police kept
Feng Jun’s money, not his.
However, he was the middle-man in the deal.
It was his duty to help Feng Jun get the money back.
Feng Jun wore a wry smile. “I don’t think so. Even if they agree to give it back to
me, what if they abuse it beforehand?”
“We’ll still ask them to return it back to you,” said Zhang Wei. “If they dare to refuse, we’ll expose it to the news channels.”
Before Feng Jun could say another word, Wang Haifeng stopped the car. “Alright, we’ve arrived. Sister Hong wants to share a meal with you.”
Feng Jun said, “Well, I’m honored.”
Zhang Weihong treated Feng Jun very well. She stayed in a hotel nearby last night and booked a private room today to welcome him back.
No one could become successful easily, and Zhang Weihong was as smart as she was attractive.
Once the dishes were placed on the table, she said to Feng Jun, “Feng Jun, I tried to help you out last night not only because of you but also because of Liu
Shunting.”
Feng Jun was struck dumb for a second. He then raised his cup with a smile. “Sister Hong, I understand that you have your own thoughts, but I should still thank you for your willingness to help me. Let1 s have a toast!”
“Oh?” Zhang Weihong was surprised and smiled. “I didn’t know that you re eloquent until now. Alright, let’s have a toast!
When they were having the toast, Wang Haifeng said,” Probably because he didn’t have a successful career before, and his nature was suppressed.
Zhang Weihong drank up the sake in her cup and nodded. “Right, he’s even going to open a mine, so he couldn’tbe a simple guy.
“What?” Feng Jun was surprised because Zhang Weihong didn’t know what he was doing yesterday, but she already knew it right now.
He gave a glance to Wang Haifeng. “Did you tell Sister Hong that?”
“I found out yesterday,” Zhang Weihong explained at once. She then smiled and said, “You know, I have some influence. If Wang Haifeng didn’t tell me the details, I wouldn’t be willing to help you out.”
Feng Jun wore a wry smile. It seemed that he was fooled by Zhang Weihong again yesterday. Women were indeed adept liars.
Zhang Wei, however, was displeased. “Haifeng…”
He was worried that Wang Haifeng would tell other people that he was secretly dealing with explosives. Although he could handle it to some extent, it was better if no one else was aware of it.
“It’s not a big deal!” Wang Haifeng gave him a glance of disdain. “The reason. Sister Hong came to help Feng Jun out was also to give Xia Xiaoyu a response.” Hearing that, Feng Jun finally realized the real reason why Zhang Weihong, who always had a lukewarm attitude towards him, would suddenly be willing to stand out for him this time. He didn’t believe that she would do that simply for him.
It made sense if it was because of Xia Xiaoyu.
Zhang Weihong knew that he wasn’t dumb, so she snorted and said with a resigned look, “Liu Shuming was only kept for 15 days last time and was soon released, so Xia Xiaoyu is quite mad about that.”
Feng Jun lifted his cup and drank it up. He then exhaled for a long time. “Sister Hong, do you want me to explain it to Xia Xiaoyu?”
Zhang Weihong laughed and looked at him with interest. “If you’re willing to dothat, it’ll be the best.”
Feng Jun slowly shookhis head. “I’ll see, because we don’t get along very well.” “Nonsense, she likes you very much, and she even cried because of you last time,” said Wang Haifeng.
Feng Jun rolled his eyes. “Don’t be ridiculous. You two have ruined my date. Hearing that, Zhang Weihong felt that she must say something. “Feng Jun, don’t blame me for teachingyou when we’re not close. I’m experienced, and to be honest with you, it’s actually a great chance for you to climb up the social ladder if you can marry her.”
“Right, you should be worried about whether her family will approve of your relationship,” Wang Haifeng agreed.
“Really?” Feng Jun curled his lips with obvious disdain. “I think I can be successful on my own.”
“Don’t be a fool.” Zhang Weihong shook her head. “You probably think that mining is profitable, but it’s not easy at all.”
Hearing that, Zhang Wei was surprised. “Why? Isn’t it very profitable?” “Who told you that?” Zhang Weihong smiled with disdain. “There are indeed many highly profitable mines, but too many people want to make a quick fortune, and not many mines can survive more than a year.”
Zhang Wei frowned. “Really? Is it that dangerous?”
“Yes, I know it’s really dangerous,” said Feng Jun. There were dangerous iron mines in his hometown, and they could be mined in the open pit.
Once explosives burst, it was super easy to make hundreds of thousands of yuan a day with forklifts.
However, no one could own the mine for too long, no matter how cruel the person was.
Nowadays, endless people would be willing to take great risks for a fortune.
It was impossible to occupy an iron mine, let alone a gold mine.
Zhang Weihong felt satisfied when Feng Jun stayed clear-headed. “It’s not a long-term business, so you should know when to stop and begin to live a stable life.”
“Well, I have no special feeling towards her,” said Feng Jun, feeling troubled. “In addition, I don’t want to ride on her coattails and become a freeloader in other people’s eyes. By the way, I really don’t know who has the ability to help me shorten the time towards success.”
Zhang Weihong shook her head and said nothing further about it.
Feng Jun was obviously bragging. There were too many powerful and rich people who could easily help him do that in this world.
Anyway, nobody would be serious about it, and Wang Haifeng joked, “She can be a good friend with benefits.”
Zhang Weihong smiled and held up her cup as if she didn t hear it.
Feng Jun raised his hand and drank up the drink in his cup, then filled it by himself. He said casually, “A friend with benefits? I don’t think so. She isn’t beautiful.”
“She’s tall and has a pair of long legs!” Wang Haifeng argued. “The girl you dated last time is good looking but short and not sexy. Well, it’s hard to find a beautiful and sexy woman.”
“I don’t think so. Isn’t Sister Hong a beautiful and sexy woman?” said Feng Jun. “Oh?” Zhang Weihong stopped when she was about to down her cup again. She gave Feng Jun a glance, then said with a faint smile, “Feng Jun, you’re a man of ideas.”
“Sorry, I shouldn’t have said that. I’ll drink this cup of alcohol as a punishment.” Feng Jun said, “I simply want to say that a woman like you is very rare.”
Zhang Weihong returned to be calm again. “Well, men do become bad once they have some money. Feng Jun, you dare to joke with me now.” “Sorry, I won’t say that again,” said Feng Jun and changed the topic at once. “Oh, can I teach the man called Hong a lesson? He has offended you and also threatened me.”
“Do you want to pay him back?” Zhang Weihong looked surprised. “Let it go. I think you should seize your time to make more money. I told some media to pay special attention to the case you’re involved in, so he’ll be avoiding you for a long time.”
“Thanks!” Feng Jun drank up his drink and stood up. “And I should leave now. “Wait.” Wang Haifeng raised his head and asked with surprise, “Where are you going in a hurry? There are more dishes to be placed on the table.”
Feng Jun grinned. “To make money.”
