Chapter 1757: The night market (part one)

“Don’t worry, daddy’s big project is starting to see results. In just a few days, the company’s liquid funds have more than doubled, haha!” At this point, pengzhan couldn’t help but smile.

“Okay … Congratulations then …” Chu Mengyao didn’t know much about the operations of a company, but it was always a good thing to make money.

“Okay, Yaoyao, you guys have fun. Daddy has things to do, something’s going to happen …” Chu pengzhan said.

“Okay. Bye, daddy.” Chu Mengyao hung up and shook her head,””Let’s go. Daddy’s too busy. I don’t have time. ”

Lin Yi wanted to say something, but decided not to after some hesitation. He didn’t know much about business, but he heard the conversation on the phone. He felt that it was illogical for pengzhan’s company to double its capital in such a short time.

Pengzhan industries wasn’t a tech company, and they didn’t have any inventions or creations. It was impossible for their assets to double all of a sudden, but Chu pengzhan was a veteran in the business world. He shouldn’t have made any common sense mistakes.

Chu pengzhan received a call from an Mingyue right after he hung up.

“Brother an, how is it?” Pengzhan asked.

“Haha, congratulations, we’ve earned another 10% from our investment …” An Mingyue said proudly.

“No way? You’ve earned so much again?” Pengzhan said, surprised.

“Of course, this trader is an expert that Jianwen met when he was studying abroad. He has a good understanding of the futures market!” “If he didn’t offend someone when he was doing business abroad, he wouldn’t have come to me …” An Mingyue said.

“Then … Why don’t we increase the investment?” Pengzhan asked, a little moved.

“Let’s forget about the bigger one. It’s just for fun. We all have our own businesses. Let’s forget about the profit.” “Besides, brother Chu, do you still have money?” an Mingyue asked. All of your assets are real estate, right?”

“That’s true … I’ll think about it …” Chu pengzhan said with regret.

“Okay, that’s all for now. I’ll let you know if there’s any news.” An Mingyue said.

“Alright, sorry to trouble you, brother an.” Pengzhan said quickly.

After hanging up, Mingyue gave Jianwen a big thumbs up.”Jianwen, that’s a good idea, getting Chu pengzhan into the trap step by step. As you expected, he’s planning to invest more …”

“That’s natural. Who wouldn’t be tempted by such a huge profit?” “Let’s wait a bit more,”Jianwen said,”we’ll give him some more stimulation in a few days. He’ll probably be more impulsive soon.”

“En … But what if he stops when he’s ahead? Wouldn’t we be losing money?” An Mingyue was a little worried. After all, it was all a lie. She didn’t do it at all. The money Chu pengzhan brought over was still in her company’s account. She just told Chu pengzhan when she saw some futures making money.

“Don’t worry, father. The hypnotist has already given him a hint. He will definitely go crazy.” “When that happens, the entire pengzhan industries will be ours!” Jianwen said, not worried at all.

“En, I’m relieved to hear you say that!” An Mingyue nodded.

One day, Lin Yi and the group came to a small town near the highway. They were going to have something to eat and stay the night.

They were getting closer and closer to the village, but Lin Yi didn’t travel day and night. He was a practitioner, so it was fine, but Tang Yun and the others weren ‘t. If they didn’t rest well in the car, they’d be very tired the next day. They’d also spend the night in all kinds of small towns, and they’d go to the market at night. It was very interesting.

This was the first time Mengyao and Yushu were driving on a road trip. They used to travel a lot, but they didn’t know how to drive, so they never had the experience of stopping and going.

In the evening, after everyone had dinner near the express hotel, they went to the night market of the town as usual.

There weren’t many shops in the town, only a big market. You could buy all kinds of things here, and that was what the market was like. Chu Mengyao and the others lived in the big city and had never experienced it, but this place was not much different from a night market.

Of course, the market mostly sold local specialties and some daily necessities, unlike the night markets in the city that sold snacks and small accessories.

As for local specialties, no one had any desire to buy them. The trunk of the car was already full. They had planned to buy some local specialties every time they went to a place, but as they bought, they had unknowingly bought a lot. They couldn’t buy any more.

Therefore, everyone was only here to watch.

“I heard that old bastard Wang killed a legendary Black Phoenix when he went hunting today?”

“Black Phoenix? I think it’s a pheasant?”

“Who knows? but the price is so high. Only an idiot would buy it.”

“Yeah, even if it’s a Phoenix, it can’t fly after eating it!”

“You only know how to eat!”

“He killed me, what else can I do besides eating?”

“That’s true!”

Lin Yi and the group were walking around the market looking at the local specialties when they heard two stall owners talking. Out of curiosity, Lin Yi asked,”What is the black Phoenix?”

“Who knows? it’s said to be a Black Phoenix. It’s a spirit beast from the dark night mountain. Of course, it’s just a legend. I think it’s a Black Chicken!” The stall owner replied casually.

“Oh?” Lin Yi was just asking casually, but his heart jumped when he heard that it was a spirit beast.”Spirit beast? What was that thing? Isn’t it similar to the animals that can cultivate in the novels?”

“Spirit beast? I don’t know what spirit beasts are, but the older generation said that there are spirit beasts on this mountain, but they are extremely rare. It is said that drinking the blood of spirit beasts can prolong one’s life. ” “As for the cultivation you mentioned, I’ve never heard of it,” the stall owner said.

“Alright, thank you!” Lin Yi nodded.

“Shield bro, are you going to see that Black Phoenix or something?” Chen Yushu saw Lin Yi stand up and guessed what he meant.

“En, I want to go and join in the fun.” Lin Yi didn’t explain.

“It’s over there. You guys can go and take a look. But that thing, hehe, only a fool would buy it!” The stall owner pointed to a direction in the market and said.

Lin Yi didn’t say anything else, and led the girls in the direction the owner pointed …
