Chapter 1799: Overthinking

Sir, I’m the waiter at the reception, Xiao Zhang. I was the one that gave you the bedsheet,
Xiao Zhang said politely.

Waiter? Give me a moment.
Yang Ming buttoned up his shirt and opened the room door.

Greetings, sir. About the bedsheet matter just now, I have consulted our boss…
Xiao Zhang stuttered due to his obvious hesitation

What’s wrong with you?
Yang Ming looked at Xiao Zhang in confusion,
Just say whatever you need to say.




Sir, our boss said that this bedsheet costs one hundred thousand yuan. It’s made out of Australian wool…
Little Zhang said carefully.

Australian wool? One hundred thousand?
Yang Ming was stunned.

Sir, don’t be angry. I’m just a waiter, and I was sent to pass on the message. The price was actually set by our boss, not me…
The waiter immediately said carefully when he saw Yang Ming’s shocked expression as he was afraid that Yang Ming would vent his anger out on him.

Your resort’s normal cotton bed sheets are made out of Australian wool?
Yang Ming was entertained by the waiter’s words. As a matter of fact, a hundred thousand yuan meant nothing to Yang Ming right now. However, even if he was rich, Yang Ming didn’t want to be scammed just like that.

Yang Ming, what’s the matter?
Jing Xiaolu walked out of the room and asked.

There’s an issue with the bedsheet. The resort’s owner asked me to compensate them with a hundred thousand yuan,
Yang Ming shrugged and told Jing Xiaolu.

Ah? Hundred thousand?
Jing Xiaolu also looked at the waiter in shock,
Are your resort’s bedsheets made out of gold?


Ugh… I didn’t set the price. It was my boss. I’m just here to pass on the message…
Xiao Zhang immediately explained.

No wonder this place is filled with scammers. So this is where it originated from!
Jing Xiaolu was naturally talking about the barbeque incident previously. She never expected this resort to be filled with scammers.
The waiter Xiao Zhang smiled awkwardly. However, he had no right to make any decision.



Yang Ming, let’s not keep the bedsheet. Let’s just return it to them.
Although Jing Xiaolu felt that it was a pity to return the bed sheet, she was reluctant to spend a hundred thousand yuan for it. She would rather not have it, simply because it wasn’t worth it.
Jing Xiaolu was this kind of person. Although she was a little vain, she was even more stingy. Although she had her own company now, her personality was still the same. Her attitude had not changed.
After hearing Jing Xiaolu’s words, Xiao Zhang knew that the owner’s guess was right. He couldn’t help but smile bitterly. Seems like the owner has the potential to become a profiteer.

Your boss is Sui Yuemin, right?
Yang Ming asked as he looked at the waiter Xiao Zhang.
Does he want to die?


Ga!
Xiao Zhang was stunned after hearing Yang Ming’s words. He never expected Yang Ming to call out his boss’s name. Does Yang Ming know the boss? Besides, his tone seems so prideful. He even asked if the boss wants to die. Who in the world is this guy?

If your boss wants the money, ask him to come to speak with us,
Yang Ming looked at Xiao Zhang and said plainly.

Yes, sir…
Xiao Zhang immediately backed out. He instinctually felt that this guest’s identity wasn’t that simple. He wanted to quickly go report it to Sui Yuemin.
Xiao Zhang didn’t even call the boss. He decided to go to Sui Yuemin’s office himself. He quickened his steps and ran towards Sui Yuemin’s office and knocked on the door.

Come in.
Sui Yuemin thought, So many things have happened tonight. It wasn’t this busy last time. Luckily I haven’t gone back to my room to sleep yet. Otherwise, no one would be in the office.

President Sui …
Xiao Zhang pushed the door open and walked into the office.



Oh? Xiao Zhang, how was it? Have they paid yet?
Sui Yuemin asked when he saw Xiao Zhang.

No…
Xiao Zhang shook his head.

You can’t even handle such a task. It was such a simple one. How could you not receive any money?
Sui Yuemin frowned.

President Sui, it went like this. I told that male guest that the bedsheet was Australian wool, and it was worth a hundred thousand yuan. The female guest said that it was expensive, and asked him to return the bed sheet to us,
said Xiao Zhang.
But the male guest suddenly said, ‘Your boss is Sui Yuemin, right? Does he want to die?’


What? You’re saying that the male guest knows that I am the owner?
Sui Yuemin was shocked after hearing Xiao Zhang’s words. He asked,
What is that guest’s origins?


The room was reserved by a man named Zhang Kaiyuan from the class reunion. He should be a member of this class reunion…
said Xiao Zhang.

Zhang Kaiyuan? I have never heard of him before.
Sui Yuemin shook his head.
Such a boastful tone! He even asked me if I wanted to die?


That’s right. He even said that if you want the money, you have to go meet with him personally,
said Xiao Zhang carefully.

If that’s so, then I would really like to meet this guy! I’ll see what kind of person he is!
Sui Yuemin stood up as he said this. He then told Xiao Zhang,
Lead the way. I’ll go personally.


Yes, President Sui.
Xiao Zhang let out a sigh of relief. With Sui Yuemin leading the way, he felt safer. He didn’t have to worry about the guests of Room 307 making things difficult for him.


On the way to the room, Sui Yuemin started to frown and think. Who in the world knows me, and has such a boastful tone. However, even after thinking for a long time, he couldn’t think of who this person might be.
When they reached Room 307, Xiao Zhang knocked on the door.
Yang Ming opened the door and glanced at Xiao Zhang. After that, his gaze fell onto Sui Yuemin who was behind Xiao Zhang.

Sui Yuemin, how are you doing?
Yang Ming looked at him and asked plainly.
Sui Yuemin was a little surprised after seeing Yang Ming. He felt that Yang Ming was a little familiar, but he didn’t know where he had seen him before.

Who are you?
Sui Yuemin thought for quite some time, but he still couldn’t recollect who Yang Ming was. He subconsciously regarded Yang Ming as a child of someone he knew.
This person might be someone who had a high position. Otherwise, the child wouldn’t be so arrogant.

Sui Yuemin, it seems like your memory is really bad. I’m Yang Ming,
Yang Ming looked at Sui Yuemin and said.

Yang Ming… Yang Ming!
I remember! You’re Sui Guangqi’s classmate!
Sui Yuemin had a decent memory. When Yang Ming said his name, Sui Yuemin remembered the time when Sui Guangqi had his class reunion here. Someone named Yang Ming had taught Zhang Penbai and his few underlings a lesson at that time.
Yang Ming nodded,
That’s right. It’s me.




I was thinking about who you were! So you’re Sui Guangqi’s classmate. How dare you have such an arrogant tone!?
After Sui Yuemin knew Yang Ming’s identity, he started to laugh without any fear,
If you said that you were Sui Guangqi’s classmate before this, I might have given you some respect. But now, even if Sui Guangqi came here personally, I wouldn’t show him any respect as well! Xiao Zhang, tell him who this resort belongs to now!


President Sui… has already bought this resort…
said Xiao Zhang helplessly.

What nonsense are you talking about? How is this matter related to Sui Guangqi?
Yang Ming was a little confused after hearing Sui Yuemin’s words.

Didn’t you want to use Sui Guangqi’s identity to pressure me?
Sui Yuemin thought that Yang Ming wanted to act innocent, and decided to directly expose him.

Me? Use Sui Guangqi to pressure you? Is that idiot so powerful?
Yang Ming couldn’t contain his laughter after hearing what Sui Yuemin said.
Aren’t you overthinking?


Overthinking?
Sui Yuemin frowned,
Since you don’t want to use Sui Guangqi’s identity to pressure me, then I’m sorry. The bedsheet is a hundred thousand yuan. Pay according to the price. You can’t even pay one cent less.


Are you sure?
Yang Ming looked at Sui Yuemin with a smile.

You destroyed the bedsheet. Pay according to the price. What’s there to not be sure about?
said Sui Yuemin.
I heard that you both drove a BMW here. You shouldn’t be short of a hundred thousand, right? Otherwise, you can also return the previous bed sheet. We have it all in our bills!


Fine. I’ll make a phone call and ask someone to send the money over,
Yang Ming nodded and said.

Sure. I’ll wait for you to make the phone call!
Sui Yuemin looked like he was certain that he could scam Yang Ming.
Chapter 1800: Seeing Brother Bai Again
Yang Ming took out his telephone book and dialed Bao Sanli.

Brother Yang, what’s the matter?
Bao Sanli originally wanted to sleep. When he heard the phone ring, he felt like complaining about who was calling him so late at night. When he saw that it was Yang Ming, he suddenly felt energetic.
After Bao Sanli knew that Yang Ming was about to perform a dangerous mission, his attitude towards Yang Ming didn’t turn cold. Instead, he became more respectful and enthusiastic. Since he recognized Yang Ming as his boss, he would be loyal to him for the rest of his life.

Baozi, who’s responsible for our company in Jidun City?
Yang Ming asked. After Guo Jinbiao in Jidun City had been eliminated by Yang Ming, his territory was being managed by Bao Sanli.
Although Yang Ming let Bao Sanli end all of his underworld businesses afterwards, they still had control over the underworld forces. They did not do any illegal business anymore. Instead, they started to focus on nightclubs, hotels, KTV and other industries.

Jidun City is managed by that brat, Zhang Penbai. He was originally from Jidun City, so I sent him there,
said Bao Sanli.

Zhang Penbai? How can that be? It’s him!
Yang Ming immediately laughed after hearing this.
Alright. Ask him to send a hundred thousand yuan to me at the Immortal Resort. I’m in the villa building, Room 307.


Alright, I’ll ask him to do so,
Bao Sanli immediately agreed. He didn’t ask Yang Ming why he needed the money. After following Yang Ming for a long time, he knew Yang Ming’s habits. If Yang Ming wanted to say something, he would naturally say it. If he didn’t want to, there would be no point in asking.
After hearing Zhang Penbai’s name, Sui Yuemin’s face turned gloomy. Zhang Penbai was not a stranger to him. Last time, this person was working under him. However, because of that time where he meddled in Sui Guangqi’s affairs and caused a conflict with Yang Ming, Sui Yuemin fired him. According to rumors, he was working under a very powerful brother in Song Jiang City. After that, there was no news about him anymore.
Coincidentally, Zhang Penbai was dispatched to manage this place after the boss of Song Jiang City destroyed JIdun City’s boss, Gui Jinbiao. Zhang Penbai also had lots of issues with Sui Yuemin. After taking over Jidun City, he came to trouble Sui Yuemin’s every two or three days. Although Sui Yuemin was angry, he didn’t dare to do anything. How could he dare to offend Jidun City’s boss?
Sui Yuemin regretted not treating Zhang Penbai well previously. However, who could have expected that Zhang Penbai would undergo such a drastic change?
Afterwards, Sui Yuemin had no choice but to beg his big brother Sui Yuejin to help him apologize. He even invited Zhang Penbai to a meal. Afterwards, he promised to give Zhang Penbai a certain amount of commission every month. Zhang Penbai let Sui Yuemin off the bat simply because he respected Sui Yuejin and the Sui Family. He didn’t even consider Sui Yuemin as a member of the Sui Family.
At this time, when he heard Yang Ming calling someone named Baozi and ordering him to make Zhang Penbai send a hundred thousand yuan over, Sui Yuemin was stunned.
This can’t be, right? Yang Ming knows Zhang Penbai? He let Zhang Penbai send the money over? Does he still want his life? Is Zhang Penbai’s money that easily acquired? Every month Zhang Penbai doesn’t even care about the money I give him. I even have to smile apologetically to him!
If Zhang Penbai were to come here to deliver the money, and if I were to receive it, can this resort still operate?
Sui Yuemin broke out in a cold sweat when he thought of this. However, after thinking for a while, he thought, This isn’t right! I must be overthinking. At that time, Yang Ming was the one who defeated Zhang Penbai and his underlings, which caused me to fire Zhang Penbai. Zhang Penbai should be opposing Yang Ming instead. It’s impossible for the two of them to have any relations.
That’s it! It must be a different person. There are too many people with the same name. How can there be such a coincidence? This Zhang Penbai can’t be that Zhang Penbai.
Besides, what identity does Zhang Penbai have? He already owns four to five nightclubs and KTVs. How is it possible to ask him to send money over at midnight?
Before this, Yang Ming said
The person responsible for our company in Jidun City
. If that’s so, this Zhang Penbai must just be a liaison staff from a branch office. Meanwhile, the Zhang Penbai that I know of is an underworld boss.
After thinking of this, Sui Yuemin finally calmed down,
Have you finished speaking? When will he deliver the money?


He’ll be here in a while.
Yang Ming never expected Sui Yuemin to still remain so calm even after he mentioned both
Baozi
and
Zhang Penbai
. He was a little surprised.
Could it be that Sui Yuemin is doing really well right now, and does not even care about Zhang Penbai? Or could it be because Zhang Penbai is doing quite badly in Jidun City, so everyone doesn’t respect him at all?
If Zhang Penbai was really doing badly, Yang Ming would be willing to give Sui Yuemin a hundred thousand yuan.

A while? Fine, I’ll wait here. I’ll see if he comes in a while or not!
said Sui Yuemin.

Suit yourself. This is your hotel, so I won’t be entertaining you.
Yang Ming wanted to close the door.

What are you doing? You’re asking us to stand outside?
Sui Yuemin wanted to raise his leg to enter the room. However, he kicked Yang Ming’s door instead.

I rented this room with my money. You have no right to enter now, right?
Yang Ming asked.

This…
Sui Yuemin thought for a while. Yang Ming had a point. Although he felt a little angry, he held it back when he remembered that he would receive a hundred thousand yuan later.
Zhang Penbai was in the sauna right now. An underling rushed to him while holding a phone,
Brother Penbai, Brother Penbai, phone call, you have a phone call!


What phone call? It’s so late at night. Can’t you see that I’m in the sauna?
Zhang Penbai frowned.

It’s Brother Bao’s phone call!
The underling quickly said.

Ah! Quickly give it to me!
Zhang Penbai quickly stood up when he heard that the one calling was Bao Sanli. He snatched the phone from the underling’s hand and picked up,
Hello, Brother Bao. I’m Penbai. Do you want me to do anything?


Brother Yang is at Room 307 in the Immortal Resort. Give him a hundred thousand yuan right now.
Bao Sanli did not explain anything to Zhang Penbai. He just gave his orders.

Brother Yang? Oh… alright, alright. I’ll go now!
Zhang Penbai was a little stunned when he heard
Brother Yang
. However, he immediately knew who Bao Sanli was talking about. It’s Yang Ming!
Previously, Zhang Penbai didn’t know about Yang Ming’s identity. It was only when he was dispatched to Jidun City to take control over it that he heard from Bao Sanli about Yang Ming’s identity. He felt both fortunate and afraid.
I never expected Yang Ming to be my final boss!
From then onwards, Zhang Penbai had always wanted to find a chance to help Yang Ming do something. However, he had no chance to do so in Jidun City. Now that Bao Sanli had given him this mission, Zhang Penbai was very happy.
He immediately rushed out of the sauna room and wore his clothes. He then told the underling that had given him the phone,
Quickly go prepare a hundred thousand yuan. After that, follow me to the Immortal Resort. The boss needs it for an emergency!


Boss? Is it Brother Bao?
The underling asked subconsciously.

It’s not Brother Bao, but his boss! It’s our big boss!
Zhang Penbai glared at the underling,
Why are you asking so much? Hurry up! Let me tell you, if you delay this official matter, I won’t let you off the bat!


Ah! Yes!
The underling didn’t dare to ask anymore, and quickly went to prepare the money. He was confused about the identity of Brother Bao’s boss. Why do I not know of him? However, after seeing Zhang Penbai’s facial expression, he did not dare to simply ask.
Very quickly, the underling took a bag of money and ran over,
Brother Penbai, it’s ready!


If it’s ready, then let’s go!
Zhang Penbai nodded and quickly went out of the bath’s door. He then sat on the passenger seat of a Mercedes Benz.
The underling sat on the driver seat and started the car. He then drove towards the Immortal Resort.

Hurry up! Drive faster!
Zhang Penbai kept pushing the underling to drive faster, and complained that he was driving too slow.

Brother Penbai, do you think that Brother Bao’s boss lacks this hundred thousand yuan? Why have I not heard about Brother Bao having a boss? Could it be a liar?
The underling asked with confusion.

He’s not a liar! Brat, if you keep spouting nonsense, watch how I’ll kick you out of the car!
Zhang Penbai was immediately angry,
What do you know? Do you think you can see someone of that level? Not to mention his boss, you haven’t even seen Brother Bao a few times!


Alright. Brother Penbai, I’m sorry…
The underling quickly apologized. He thought about it, and realized that it was practically like that. He was just an underling. How could he come in contact with someone of that caliber?
