After being reborn, the young master returned to his village and led his wife and daughters to prosp

"What have you thought about what I told you last time?"

"Let's wait a little longer. My dad won't agree to us being together. He gave me Uncle Hao's contact information. Their next transaction is in three days. I've already thought it through. I'll lie to my dad and say the transaction is in two days. When he brings his people to the transaction, we'll run away together. Once we're out of China, no one can stop us from being together!"

A simple conversation allowed Lin Fan to keenly perceive some key information.

The deal, the deception, only she knew...

With this information combined, Lin Fan quickly came up with many possibilities in his mind.

Unfortunately, just as Lin Fan was trying to eavesdrop on more information, the two people below casually took over the topic and began to whisper sweet nothings.

Lin Fan peeked at the corner of the wall for a long time, but couldn't hear any useful information. Seeing that the two people below were about to start fighting again, he hurriedly climbed over the second-floor balcony and left!

On the way back, Lin Fan combined the information he had just heard with many possibilities in his mind, but unfortunately, the existing information was too little to obtain a complete route!

However, this information was enough, because Lin Fan believed that he wouldn't find anything out on his own, and he didn't need to investigate things too thoroughly. He gave Cheng Hui some warnings and then vaguely told Cheng Hui some information he knew.

Once Cheng Hui receives the news, he will naturally investigate it himself. As long as the investigation uncovers the problem, Lin Fan's ambiguous words will become invaluable advice that saves lives!

After making up his mind, Lin Fan returned to Guo Cai's house and fell asleep peacefully under the care of Guo Cai's family!

The next morning, Lin Fan woke up and followed the same routine. He first taught Qing'er how to study, and then at noon, Lin Fan and Guo Cai received a message from the old man in the vest!

Cheng Hui agreed to meet with them, but he could only give them an hour. They had arranged to meet at a large restaurant in Zhejiang City that evening.

Clearly, all this face-saving was for the old man in the vest, and this face-saving also cost money. Lin Fan gave the old man another five hundred yuan as a token of his gratitude!

So the two of them spent the rest of the afternoon preparing for this!

At eight o'clock in the evening, the night was deep, and the entire city of Zhejiang was shining under the neon lights!

Lin Fan, Guo Cai, and Lao Weixin arrived at the largest restaurant in Zhejiang City.

In a dimly lit private room, Lin Fan met the legendary Cheng Hui!

Cheng Hui wasn't as scary as I imagined; in fact, he was quite handsome and still looked very charming even though he was over forty.

He had a simple buzz cut, a rugged face, and apart from a few wrinkles, he didn't show many signs of age. His hair, whether dyed or not, showed no signs of being messy or pale, giving him the youthful vigor of a young man.

He was wearing a jade thumb ring on his hand, which he habitually rubbed as he spoke.

She was dressed in trendy casual clothes, not in a suit and tie, nor was she showing her chest; she had a sporty vibe.

Aside from Cheng Hui's vision and aura, you would never imagine that he is a ruthless and powerful figure who has connections in both the legal and illegal worlds.

"Boss Cheng Hui, let me introduce you. This young man is Lin Fan, who wants to meet you!"

"This is Cheng Hui. I am honored to act as a mediator between the two of you today!"

"I hope you can all talk amicably, because harmony brings wealth!"

"Okay, what do you want to talk about? You can start now. Just pretend I don't exist. I'm a person who likes to make friends. After today, whatever happens is none of my business. I hope everyone can treat me as a friend."

The old man in the vest looked at the two people in front of him very familiarly, introduced them to each other, and then quickly spoke up, constantly trying to absolve himself of responsibility.

There's no way to do it. The most important thing in their line of work is neutrality. Even if you betray someone's information, you absolutely cannot take their opposing side.

Only in this way can they survive, and ordinary people usually won't bother someone like Old Vest just because their information has been betrayed.

Because the old man in the vest can sell you information, and one day he can also give you the information you need. You could say that the broker is a double-edged sword; he can hurt you or help you. It all depends on how you use him!

After a brief self-introduction, Guo Cai and Lin Fan sat opposite Cheng Hui across the table.

Cheng Hui was accompanied by two people whose clothing was even simpler, but Lin Fan could tell from their thick forearms and high chests that they were both trained fighters.

Moreover, these two people's ears are different from ordinary people's; their earlobes are droopy and thick, and their auricles are bulging outwards, like cauliflower.

These are typical wrestling ears, a feature only seen in underground professional wrestlers who operate on the fringes of law in Southeast Asia and other regions!

In other words, the two men standing behind Cheng Hui were both formidable fighters who had fought their way up from the bottom in the no-man's-land of underground boxing rings. Even in this peaceful era, they were among the few truly ruthless individuals who had experienced blood and fire!

"Old Vest said you're here to talk business with me?"

While Lin Fan was observing the other party, Cheng Hui took the initiative to speak.

He glanced at Lin Fan indifferently, seemingly not taking Lin Fan seriously. He tapped his chopsticks on the table while picking up food and asking a question.

Lin Fan paused for a moment, then nodded slightly and said, "That's right, I have a business deal I'd like to discuss with Boss Cheng Hui."

Cheng Hui took a bite of food and asked seemingly casually, "There are many people in this world who want to talk business with me, but very few who are qualified enough to talk business with me."

"You should understand that I'm sitting here because of Old Man Vest's influence. That old coffin-head, although he's obsessed with money, is still useful sometimes. I didn't want to offend him, so I came over!"

"You have one hour, but only if what you say next can move me. If not, you can leave, and we can pretend we never met tonight."

Cheng Hui's words showed no politeness towards Lin Fan, and in fact, he didn't need to be polite to Lin Fan.

In this city of Zhejiang, he might not be considered all-powerful, but he was certainly one of the top figures. Aside from the bigwigs in the government, he was practically invincible among the ordinary people.

Even a powerful dragon can't suppress a local snake, let alone Lin Fan, a young man from out of town who probably has no background.
