Chapter 40: Talking about business

"Oh, Mr. Cheng, Mr. Zheng, I didn't know that you two were here, it was really a disappointment. Come on, come in, Junjie, go get some of the tea you brought back from the West last month, and I'm going to entertain you both. Xing Chenghui saw that it was Cheng Lei and them coming, and showed great enthusiasm, and hurriedly invited them into the house.

After arriving in the living room, they sat down separately, Cheng Lei put the bag of milk dew cake on the table, and said, "Master Xingmen, a little gift is not a tribute." ”

Xing Chenghui was very happy when he saw the bag of cakes: "This is the milk cake of the spring pastry on Cross Street, they only make ten servings a day, and the price is quite high." My wife loves to eat this the most, and it's hard for Mr. Cheng to have a heart. ”

"Where, where. It's just a little meaning...... Cheng Lei said: "For ordinary people, this cake is a bit expensive, but for the master of Xingmen, it is not worth mentioning at all." ”

"Hahaha......" Xing Chenghui laughed heartily: "Mr. Cheng, look at how rich you say I am!" But what you said is also true, this money is really not worth mentioning to you and me. I don't know if Mr. Cheng is here, what's the matter? After greeting for a while, Xing Chenghui finally couldn't help but take the lead in getting to the point.

Cheng Lei lit a cigarette and said, "The younger brother has heard of the name of the Xingjiamen and the master of the Xingmen since a long time ago, and he has always wanted to make friends but has no chance. Today, fortunately, I met the master of Xingmen at the celebration banquet of Duke Duozan, and the younger brother couldn't wait to come over and talk to the lord of Xingmen about cooperation. ”

Xing Chenghui said: "Oh? Cooperate? What kind of cooperation is Mr. Cheng referring to? ”

Cheng Lei only said two words: "oil." ”

"Oil?" Xing Chenghui somewhat understood: "Mr. Cheng is saying that you want Xing to get you some oil?" I don't know if I need petrol or diesel? Or something else? ”

Cheng Lei was very happy when he saw that he had expected that the West could already refine oil: "Yes, I asked the master of Xingmen to get some oil for us, preferably gasoline, but not to get some, but to provide us with gasoline for a long time." Presumably, the Xingmen master can transport the oil mines to the West to sell, so the Western countries must have a way to refine gasoline, and the Xingmen master must also have a way to transport the gasoline back, right? Cheng Lei said while smoking a cigarette. Their vehicles are all gasoline and diesel cylinders, he still thinks that the power of gasoline is better, and now the development level of the world, the processing level of gasoline must be higher than that of diesel.

At this time, Xing Junjie came in with three cups, first served a cup to Xing Chenghui, and then gave Cheng Lei and Zheng Bin a cup each. Then he sat next to him and started to smirk, Cheng Lei was a little puzzled, this kid didn't perform well just now, how did he become a psycho after a short period of time?

Zheng Bin took a sip of the cup, and immediately coughed, almost squirting out. However, he still swallowed it forcibly, and his expression looked more uncomfortable than eating: "This, this, this...... Where is this tea, it's obviously black coffee, oops, it's really hard to drink......"

Xing Junjie burst out laughing, and then looked at Zheng Bin's embarrassed appearance and laughed even more: "Hahaha...... I'm just waiting to see how you perform after drinking, it's okay, it's better than the first time I drank it, hahaha......"

Cheng Lei completely understood now, the reason why this kid was smirking there was actually waiting to see how he and Zheng Bin made a fool of themselves after drinking coffee! Suddenly 10,000 grass and mud horses roared past in his heart, how could such a shrewd person Xing Chenghui give birth to such a son, it was really enough for him to have a headache in the future!

At this time, Xing Chenghui was really angry: "Stinky boy, that's how you entertain guests?" Didn't you ask you to take out the good tea, how did you bring these bitter medicine-like things? ”

"Dad, isn't it what you said that this black coffee is a precious tea that can only be drunk by Western aristocrats? They are our honored guests, and of course I have to make them the tea that the most noble Western nobles drink! After saying that, Xing Junjie flashed and slipped away, leaving Xing Chenghui with a helpless and resentful look on his face.

Xing Chenghui hugged his fists at Cheng Lei and Zheng Bin and said: "Two gentlemen, the dog is stubborn, it is Xing who has no way to teach his son, please do more Haihan...... Mr. Zheng has nothing to do, let's drink a glass of water and rinse his mouth first? ”

"It's okay, it's okay, it's not like I haven't drunk it before......," Zheng Bin hurriedly waved his hand and said, "It's just that I haven't drunk it for a long time, and I'm a little uncomfortable." ”

"Oh? Mr. Zheng has also been to Western countries? Xing Chenghui became interested after hearing this.

Zheng Bin hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No, no, no, no, I just drank it at a friend's house before." ”

Xing Chenghui said with some suspicion: "I thought Mr. Zheng had also been to the West!" ”

Cheng Lei said at this time: "Master Xingmen, I think let's get back to the topic, you look at the gasoline thing......"

Xing Chenghui said with some embarrassment: "Mr. Cheng, I won't tell you, gasoline in Western countries is also a scarce material, and the price is particularly expensive, otherwise what profit would I have to make by transporting oil mines from us thousands of miles away, right?" ”

"But Master Xingmen, no matter how expensive it is, it has to have a price, you say a price, add your freight and manual carriage fees, and I'll see if I can accept it." Cheng Lei said quite sincerely.

Xing Chenghui took a sip of coffee, smashed his mouth and said, "Since Mr. Cheng has such a great sincerity to buy, and I also want to make a friend of Mr. Cheng." In this case, I will provide you with gasoline for a long time, and the price will be set at ten silver carens a liter! Mr. Cheng, although this price seems a bit expensive, this is the price I can do my best to make a profit for you. And in this Silver Tower City and around here, there is no second person who can get a drop of gasoline! ”

Cheng Lei nodded and said: "Since Master Xingmen said it, then he will definitely not pit us, we are friends!" Master Xingmen, I will put some deposit here for you first, and notify me directly to pick up the gasoline after it is shipped, and the cost will be deducted from this deposit, and I will take the money again when the deduction is almost over. After speaking, he gave Zheng Bin a look, and Zheng Bin hurriedly took out the Federal Bank exchange note and put it on the table next to Xing Chenghui.

"Master Xingmen, please check it, I believe you have seen more of this thing than me." As Cheng Lei spoke, he thought in his heart that the general fuel consumption of their cars was more than 40 liters of gasoline per 100 kilometers, and 1,000 gold victors was 40,000 silver culens, that is, 4,000 liters of gasoline. Each of the 10 cars in the team is divided into 400 liters, which means that each car can travel 1,000 kilometers with gasoline.

In the short term, the problem of oil is solved, but it is too expensive, and Cheng Lei feels that he must now do everything to open up the road to the West. If you can connect with the empires of the West, then many things can be easily solved.

But how could the nobles of the Western Empire look down on their petty officers in a small eastern city? I want to achieve my goals through Xing Chenghui...... This old fox, I'm afraid that Cheng Lei will know what Cheng Lei wants to do if he tells him a little, how can he help Cheng Lei to make friends with those people in the West for no reason, isn't this smashing his own job?

Alas...... Now it seems that let's build a base and then think about those things......

"Mr. Cheng, are you not satisfied with this price? If we're not satisfied, we can talk about ......," Xing Chenghui said.

Cheng Lei came back to his senses and said: "No, Master Xingmen, I am very satisfied with this price, if we can, we can get the goods from you for a long time, and please Lord Xingmen must not cut off the supply." ”

"Good! Deal! Xing Chenghui said with a smile.

I'm afraid that at least Xing Chenghui can earn eight hundred in this thousand silver Karen, profiteers, profiteers! Cheng Lei suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his mind and asked, "Has Master Xingmen ever seen or heard of Western trucks?" ”

"Trucks? It's one of those big cars with compartments, of course I've heard of them! The captain of the freight team at home told me how good the truck was, and that it could run with gas. But I said, how much oil does that thing have to drink, and how much money can a horse eat for grass? We're not drinking oil, we're drinking money! And if it's broken halfway, who do you go to fix it, right? Where is it better than our horse team, you can walk with some feed, and you can be cured if you are sick......" Xing Chenghui felt a little endless when he talked about this topic.

Cheng Lei obeyed his tirade, and hurriedly interrupted him: "I just want the master of Xingmen to find a way to get us a few trucks, and the money will be in place as soon as we get it, what do you think?" ”

Xing Chenghui looked at Cheng Lei a little strangely and said, "This truck is really not a good thing, Mr. Cheng, do you really want it that way?" ”

Cheng Lei smiled: "Since this truck is not a good thing, why should Western countries use it?" They are much more civilized and technologically advanced than those of our eastern states! And, Master Xingmen, if you say that if I don't buy a truck, what's the use of getting so much gasoline! ”

"Hahaha......" Xing Chenghui laughed and said, "Also, it's that I'm a little narrow." Mr. Cheng, this is to buy materials first and then buy horses, I really convinced you! But you have a car now, and you need to use gasoline, right? ”

Cheng Lei said with a smile: "Yes, so it can't be completely said that you buy materials first and then buy horses, Master Xingmen, this matter will be left to you." If it can be done, Cheng will be grateful. Master Xingmen, there are many disturbances today, so let's take our leave first. ”

"What is the heavy thanks, of course I should help a friend, Mr. Cheng, you just wait for my good news! I'll send someone to deliver you......" Xing Chenghui also stood up and said.

Xing Chenghui sent Cheng Lei to the gate, and sent eight black-clothed men to follow behind the command car on horseback, escorting Mr. Cheng back to the camp under the name of beauty. In fact, Cheng Lei knew in his heart that the counterinsurgency war had just ended, and the Lion King Squadron had played an undefeated reputation, Xing Chenghui wanted other forces in Yinta City to take a look, he had a good relationship with Cheng Lei, and he also wanted to use Cheng Lei's current name to make his status in the hearts of the various forces in Yinta City go to a higher level.
