The Bravest

Sanpu took Lin Jie to Sakura Pavilion to drink and told Lin Jie that he wanted to have a good talk with Lin Jie about the current relationship between Lin Jie and Gangcun.

"Oh, I have a very good relationship with Gangcun now. Gangcun even gave my daughter Yaya a big gift for her one-month-old birthday!" When Lin Jie heard what Sanpu said, he knew that after Gangcun slapped him, he started to give Zaozi to coax him.

At first, Gangcun gave up the profit share of the Yamaguchi family cooperation, which was far less than the profit from smuggling. At that time, Lin Jie just went along with it, and now he finally waited for Gangcun to re-employ him. However, Lin Jie still pretended to be stupid and waited to see what Sanpu said.

"Mr. Lin, how many years have I known you? Four or five years, I guess! I can't say our relationship is that good, but it's not bad either! There's no need for us to say these polite words."

Sanpu filled Lin Jie's glass with another cup, but did not urge him to drink. Instead, he picked up some food and ate it slowly, then began to talk about their personal relationship.

"Well, it's been four or five years in a blink of an eye. At that time, I had just entered No. 76. Miura-kun was quite caring towards me. I still remember it. If you have anything to say, please just say it!" Lin Jie cooperated and sighed.

"Mr. Lin, I'm not afraid of you laughing at me. Last time, Huang Tianfu was held responsible by Gangcun-kun, and I was also punished. Now we are sending out small batches. Seeing that a large amount of materials cannot be exchanged for money, and other competitors are about to regroup, I am anxious."

"Ah, isn't there Liu Ziming? He's also an old hand, so finding buyers and organizing shipments shouldn't be a problem!"

"Director Liu is capable, and he has been in charge of shipments during this period. However, Gangcun-kun and I are not too confident, and we are only shipping small batches. Mr. Lin should be able to guess the reason."

"Haha, it's just because I'm alone!" Lin Jie raised his glass and gestured to Sanpu, then he took a small sip to satisfy his thirst.

"That's right, it's because he is a lone man. Who would dare to give him a large amount of goods for trading? What if he runs away with the money? Where can we find him in such a vast crowd?" Sanpu smiled and drank a glass with Lin Jie.

"Oh, that's how it is. The slow delivery speed and inability to realize cash in time make it really hard to explain to Okamura-kun's partners. So, does Miura-kun have any ideas? As long as I can help, I will definitely not refuse."

"Mr. Lin, I think you should come back and continue to be in charge of this area. After all, you have many connections and channels. What's more important is that you have a good reputation over the years, and the buyers will feel assured."

After Sanpu finished speaking, he secretly looked at Lin Jie's eyes. After hearing his words, Lin Jie's eyes first lit up, then he shook his head and sighed.

"Miura-kun, I'm not afraid to tell you the truth. I really regret having a fight with Gangcun-kun. Life is hard now. I also thought about asking Gangcun-kun for mercy, but Gangcun suddenly took back the business and poached people. I don't know what the problem is? So I didn't dare to speak."

Lin Jie pretended to be innocent and helpless, and looked at Sanpu eagerly, clearly waiting for Sanpu to come up with some advice!

"Mr. Lin, you are in Mount Lu and don't know the true face. Gangcun-kun treats you like this not because he really suppresses you, but because he protects you. Haven't you figured it out yet? No wonder Gangcun is angry and doesn't allow you to get involved in the smuggling business."

"Ah! What do you mean, Miura-kun? I don't understand. Can you help me understand?"

Lin Jie quickly poured wine for Sanpu and asked for advice. Sanpu was very satisfied with Lin Jie's attitude. His mysterious method really worked.

Sanpu picked up the wine glass that Lin Jie had filled for him and drank it in one gulp. He let out a satisfied "ah" and then, under Lin Jie's expectant gaze, he spoke out Ziwu's fictitious analysis.

"Lin Sang, you should know better than me how Li Shiqun died! How could you follow his old path?"

As soon as Sanpu opened his mouth, he started to threaten Lin Jie, which really scared Lin Jie. However, he reacted quickly. Sanpu wanted to lead him into a ditch first, and then pull him out so that Lin Jie would be grateful to him.

However, one should still cooperate well, so Lin Jie's frightened expression was just right.

"Please, Miura-kun, this is not a joke. Please tell me what went wrong and how I followed Li Shiqun's old path. Please."

"Haha, Mr. Lin, have your influence grown in the past two years? Have your subordinates' tentacles spread wider and wider?"

"Miura-kun, I am doing this just to expand my business, and all of this was done under the supervision of Okamura-kun. I really don't have any other intentions!" Lin Jie complained to Miura.

"Mr. Lin, of course Gangcun-kun knew all this, but someone wanted to use you as an excuse to cause trouble for Gangcun-kun, and then Gangcun took action personally to suppress you in order to protect you, thus ruining the other party's plan."

"Is that so? And then what?"

"Mr. Lin, Gangcun-kun's original intention was to have you reduce your power and keep a low profile for a while, but he still wanted to hand over the business to you. After all, you are his brother-in-law! You are more trustworthy than outsiders, right? But in the end... well."

Seeing Lin Jie's anxious expression, Sanpu deliberately paused, sighed, and acted as if he was angry at Lin Jie for not fighting back, waiting for Lin Jie to beg him to continue.

"Miura-kun, stop keeping me in suspense and tell me what I did to make Okamura-kun angry."

"Mr. Lin, don't blame me for being blunt. First, you didn't understand Gangcun's intentions and had a big fight with him. Second, you deliberately made trouble for Huang Tianfu, which alerted the enemy. Not only did you destroy Gangcun's plan to lure the enemy out of his hole, but you also let him eat the bait. Third, you didn't have enough self-control. You lost your composure and messed up the inspection team, reducing its strength. Aren't these three points enough?"

Facing Sanpu's false accusations, Lin Jie did not even think of refuting. Since Sanpu came to him today, he must be re-employed, so Lin Jie also gave Sanpu a face and gave Gangcun a way out, so Lin Jie very sincerely asked Sanpu for help:

"Miura-kun, you should have reminded me earlier! What should I do now? Please give me some advice and say something good to Gangcun-kun. If I can regain Gangcun-kun's trust, I will reward you handsomely in the future!"

"Mr. Lin, we have worked together for many years, so there is no need to mention such a generous reward. I also asked for favors from Mr. Gangcun, and I have thought of a solution for you. It depends on whether you are willing or not."

As expected of Sanpu, who has been working as a secretary for a long time and has learned some leadership skills, he just seriously listed the three major mistakes of Lin Jie, and immediately put on an appearance of concern and loyalty.

"Miura-kun, just tell me what method it is, and I will definitely do it." Lin Jie patted his chest and promised.

"It's actually very simple. You can take Miss Kyoko and Little Princess Yaya to visit Mr. Gangcun and Miss Meizi, and then take the initiative to apologize to Mr. Gangcun."

"What if Gangcun-kun still can't forgive me?" Lin Jie asked hesitantly.

"Then why don't you take the initiative to give up part of it? Have you forgotten that the smuggling business has been handed over to Liu Ziming? If you give in a little, won't it be a good opportunity to save Gangcun from being too embarrassed? This is the way to be considerate!"

"Yes, if I take the initiative to give in, Gangcun will not let me suffer too much. Giving some to Liu Ziming will also prevent people from getting too jealous. What a good idea!"

Lin Jie slapped his thigh, excitedly poured wine for Sanpu, and then filled his own glass as well. He raised his glass and sincerely thanked Sanpu: "Sanpu, I won't say any more nonsense. Thank you."

Lin Jie finished his drink in one gulp, and then drank two more glasses. Lin Jie's three consecutive toasts made Sanpu think that he had exceeded his task today, so he simply toasted Lin Jie a glass in return.

"Hahaha." The two laughed out loud and felt that the trip was worthwhile.
