#9 - Chapter 9: Express Delivery Pile Up

"Mr. Niu, why have you come in person?" Manager Xu of Dingxin Fortune Building hurriedly greeted Niu Xingwang upon seeing him.

"Manager Xu, are you handling the matter for Mr. Dongfang on the 6th floor?" Niu Xingwang asked.

"Ah, yes. Didn't you say, Mr. Niu, that we must provide excellent service to such important clients?" Manager Xu asked, surprised.

"Has there been any trouble?" Niu Xingwang confirmed again.

"No, absolutely not!" Manager Xu quickly assured him.

"Let's go, go up and take a look." Niu Xingwang got up and went out.

Manager Xu hurriedly followed. He didn't know what was going on, and he didn't dare to ask.

Arriving on the 6th floor, many workers were busily tidying up.

"Did Mr. Dongfang say what the renovations were for?" Niu Xingwang asked.

"He said he wanted to open a company here," Manager Xu replied.

"What are his requirements?"

"He said he wasn't picky, just wanted it done quickly and with guaranteed quality," Manager Xu replied.

"Hmm! Are the workers you found reliable?" Niu Xingwang continued to ask.

"They've worked with us many times, no problem," Manager Xu assured him.

"Let me tell you, this matter must be handled well for me. You keep a close eye on it personally, don't let there be any mistakes. Also, tell those construction teams below, if anyone dares to be negligent, they can pack their bags and get out!" Niu Xingwang instructed.

"Okay! I understand!" Manager Xu nodded vigorously in response.

He realized that if Niu Xingwang was paying attention to someone, he couldn't afford to be careless, or he'd probably be packing his bags and leaving.

…

The next day, Dongfang Chen arrived at Zhang Ge's convenience store early in the morning.

"Brother Zhang, how is it? Can you find some people?" Dongfang Chen asked.

"Two people have responded, they'll be here in a couple of days," Zhang Ge replied.

In reality, he had only contacted two people, but they were unwilling to come. However, without work, their families couldn't make ends meet, so what were they hesitating about? It wasn't easy to find such a good opportunity, missing it would mean losing it. After Zhang Ge's scolding, they reluctantly decided to come and take a look.

"No, Brother Zhang, that's too slow. Here, I'll give you 300,000 yuan first. 200,000 yuan is for this month's salary, give it directly to your two friends first. As for the rest, arrange for plane tickets and get them here quickly! I'm in urgent need, I really can't handle it!" Dongfang Chen knew what everyone was worried about, and he couldn't care less now, he would just use his money power.

If he didn't speed things up, he wouldn't even be able to enter his own home!

Packages were flowing into his house like water, and now they could only be placed at the entrance of the building, as the house was already completely full.

"Ah? This…" Zhang Ge was directly stunned, was this even possible?

"Oh, don't be stunned. Oh, right, why don't you help me first? I'll buy out all the goods in your store!" Dongfang Chen said.

"What?" Zhang Ge was startled again.

"What's going on, why is this kid acting like he's possessed?" Zhang Ge thought.

Without explanation, Dongfang Chen directly dragged Zhang Ge out of the store, told him to lock the door, and walked straight towards his building.

"Xiao Chen, what's wrong? Why are you so flustered?" Zhang Ge finally reacted halfway and asked.

"Brother Zhang, you'll know when you get downstairs," Dongfang Chen didn't explain, still walking quickly.

When they reached the bottom of the building, Zhang Ge understood.

"My god, did you buy all of this?" Looking around, the downstairs was full of packages.

"Of course!" Dongfang Chen was also very depressed.

Xiao Lin's series of operations were fierce as a tiger, directly collapsing Dongfang Chen. This was just a drizzle, a large number of packages were still coming.

It's no exaggeration to say that he alone could monopolize all the sales of the shopping festival.

"Although online shopping is convenient, you still need to be restrained!" Zhang Ge advised.

Restrained my ass!

The people coming in and out of the neighborhood were about to scold him to death. If he didn't solve it, the property management would just clear it all away as garbage.

"Brother Zhang, you can see, I can't handle it without manpower. This is just the beginning, there are still many more packages coming," Dongfang Chen said.

"My god, if you can't put it down, can't you buy less?" Zhang Ge was also speechless.

Dongfang Chen was even more speechless. The zombies were coming, he was afraid of buying too slowly, how could he buy less?

"I'll explain to you later if I have the chance. Let's start first. Brother Zhang, here are the car keys, let's each drive one. After filling it up, take it directly to your comrade's warehouse," Dongfang said.

He wanted to refuse, but Dongfang Chen said that he had bought all the goods in his store, so what was there to look after?

"Alright!" Zhang Ge reluctantly agreed.

For an entire day, they kept hauling, and new packages kept being delivered. The cycle continued until the afternoon, but they still hadn't finished hauling.

The two were exhausted. Dongfang Chen asked Zhang Ge for the address of the warehouse, then called Xiao Lin's virtual number and asked her to change all the orders that could change the address, so that they could be sent directly to the warehouse in the future.

However, there was no way to change the orders that were already on the way, so they could only be moved.

"Mr. Dongfang, is this…?" Manager Xu brought Niu Xingwang to his door.

"Oh! Manager Xu. What is it? Is there something you need from me?" Dongfang Chen was sweating profusely, carrying things onto the car.

"Oh, Mr. Dongfang, let me introduce you, this is our group's chairman, Niu Xingwang," Manager Xu introduced.

"Hello, Mr. Niu, may I ask what you need from me?" Dongfang Chen asked politely.

"Mr. Dongfang, is this…?" Niu Xingwang didn't clarify his intentions, and asked the same question again.

"Oh, there are a few too many packages, I can't fit them in my house, so I'm moving them to another place," Dongfang Chen replied while moving.

"Uh ~," Niu Xingwang had never seen such a scene before. Since he couldn't fit them in his house, why did he still buy them? Wasn't this spending money to suffer?

However, he couldn't say that, so he changed his approach:

"How can Mr. Dongfang do such rough work! You rest, I'll call a few people to help you move them!"

"Really? Mr. Niu, then thank you so much!" Dongfang Chen's eyes lit up.

"It's nothing, nothing!" Niu Xingwang hurriedly took out his phone and called people over.

Soon, a dozen or twenty people came, Dongfang Chen distributed the car keys to everyone, and all 20 pickup trucks were used, and they were quickly emptied.

Dongfang Chen also had people empty out all the goods in Zhang Ge's store at the same time.

However, today's were hauled away, but there were still tomorrow's, the day after tomorrow's…

The orders that couldn't be changed on the way would have to be maintained for at least two to three days.

Mr. Niu was also straightforward, telling everyone to come and gather tomorrow and the day after tomorrow to help move things. This flattery was well-placed.

"Mr. Dongfang, I wonder if it's convenient, shall we have dinner together tonight?" After everything was finished, Niu Xingwang stated the purpose of his visit.

There was another reason for him to invite Dongfang Chen this time, which was to understand the development matters of the Riverside Park Museum project.

Dongfang Chen also needed to explain this matter, so he agreed.

The location was set at the five-star hotel diagonally opposite the Dingxin Fortune Building: Yuding Hotel.

Dongfang Chen first went home to take a shower, changed his clothes, and then walked to the hotel alone.

"Mr. Dongfang, to be honest, I've been in the real estate business for so many years, and this is the first time I've seen such a project. If there are any aspects that are not handled well in the middle, I hope Mr. Dongfang will give me some pointers."

After taking their seats, Niu Xingwang went straight to the point.

The so-called aspects that are not handled well were impossible. Niu Xingwang said this because he wanted to know the extent of his control.

The Riverside Park Museum project was really a chicken rib project, Niu Xingwang knew it very well. These types of projects are generally developed by local governments through resource exchange. There would be no money involved, and it was rare to encounter a private enterprise undertaking it exclusively through donations. Merchants are profit-driven, who would do something that is dead and has no benefits?

"Mr. Niu is too polite. You must have received all the drawings, just do it according to the requirements," Dongfang Chen replied.

But it was precisely this kind of reaction that made people even more confused.

"Could it be that the young man in front of me is not seeking anything else, and is completely uncorrupted?" Niu Xingwang thought. At this time, he also had a big headache, and couldn't figure out the depths of the other party on their first meeting. If he rashly offered benefits and didn't handle it well, then the subsequent matters would be difficult to handle. But if he didn't express anything, and the other party deliberately found fault later, he might not be able to cope with it.

"Haha! Mr. Dongfang, it's rare to see such a young and promising young man like you! I wonder if you have a girlfriend now?" Niu Xingwang said a polite sentence, and took the opportunity to extract some useful information.

"Uh…, Mr. Niu, isn't it inappropriate to talk about this topic on our first meeting?" Dongfang Chen was also drunk, why did everyone ask about this topic wherever he went.

It could be said that this was the happiness of young people, and also the original sin of young people.

When Mr. Niu heard this, he was frightened and thought that he had asked a question he shouldn't have, and that the other party was warning him.

"I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'll punish myself with a drink!" Mr. Niu hurriedly apologized, picked up his glass and drank it all in one gulp.

"Hmm? Is he so humble? He shouldn't be at this level, right? He's putting on such a low profile, he's worthy of being an old fox. It seems I can use my fooling magic," Dongfang Chen thought. He smiled slightly, indicating that he didn't care.

"Mr. Niu! This project is not as simple as it looks on the surface," Dongfang Chen said mysteriously.

"Oh? I'd like to hear the details!" Niu Xingwang was immediately interested, this was what he wanted to know.

It was really not easy to get this young man to spit out some information!

"I wonder if Mr. Niu has seen the drawings?" Dongfang Chen asked.

"I'm sorry, I just got the drawings this afternoon and sent them to the project department, I haven't seen them yet," Niu Xingwang replied.

"It doesn't matter. Other things can't be said now, but I can still reveal some things about the drawings," Dongfang Chen said slowly, while making things up.

When it comes to the skill of improvising and acting, ten storytellers can't keep up with him.

Niu Xingwang didn't speak, nor did he eat, but eagerly waited for Dongfang Chen to make things up, no, to continue speaking. But Dongfang Chen said a sentence and ate two bites, not in a hurry, which made him anxious.
