Chapter 17: Chapter 17: Firing You_1
Translator: 549690339
Soon, more than a dozen burly security guards came in, each armed with an electric baton.
"Beat this idiot to death for me!"
Under Liu Haitao's command, the group of security guards swarmed forward, launching an attack on Qin Feng.
But in less than a minute,
Qin Feng had knocked all the security guards to the ground, where they rolled around, wailing in pain.
Liu Haitao was stunned; his team of security guards were all trained fighters!
Could this kid really take on more than a dozen single-handedly and knock them all down in less than a minute?
If so, he must be a master of Martial Tao!
"Xue Xiaochan, not bad at all! Not only did you screw me over for thirty million, but you also hired a Martial Tao master to come after me for another seventy million. Do you think the Xue Family of the Capital can act above the law?"
Liu Haitao's words amused Qin Feng.
"Hit me with an ashtray? Send a dozen security guards to attack me? And you have the nerve to accuse others of lawlessness? Are you going to pay the seventy million or not?"
"I'll pay, alright? Isn't that enough?"
Liu Haitao had no choice but to swallow the loss in silence.
Although he was the largest distributor of Huanmei Group, he was no match for the Qin Family, and they certainly wouldn't interfere with the Xue Family's affairs just for him, Liu Haitao.
Under such pressure, he had no choice but to submit.
Liu Haitao took a check from his drawer, rapidly filled it out with the amount of seventy million, and handed it to Qin Feng.
Qin Feng received the check, glanced at it, and said, "We could have had a nice conversation about this, but you had to resort to violence. Why put yourself through this?"
"Have a nice conversation? Hah! Xue Xiaochan relies on the power of the Xue Family to bully others. It wasn't enough to rip me off for thirty million; now you've come to extort another seventy million from me. Should I be grateful to you after being completely taken for a ride?"
At this moment, Ran Jie stepped forward.
"What do you mean by saying you were cheated out of thirty million? And what's this about being robbed of another seventy million? This one billion was the payment for the whitening cream you ordered."
"The product produced by Shencao Ji is called whitening cream? More like disfiguring cream! I couldn't sell a single bottle, and it ruined my reputation."
"Whitening cream?" Qin Feng asked with curiosity.
"It's all in the warehouse; I'll take you to see. Not a single bottle of goods worth a billion has sold."
Liu Haitao led the two of them to the warehouse.
Kuoyang Shangmao's warehouse had five levels in total, three above ground and two below. Because the cosmetics from Shencao Ji were completely unsellable, just like junk, they were all piled up in the unused basement, level minus two.
The second sublevel was dark and damp, riddled with mold spots and a strong musty smell. The cardboard boxes holding the cosmetics were rotting, full of holes.
Qin Feng tore open a box and casually picked up a bottle, scanning the formula on it briefly.
He then unscrewed the cap and took a sniff.
That sniff excited him.
The warehouse of Kuoyang Shangmao must be built over a pond.
Underneath the pond, there was a hot spring, so after the warehouse was built, the second sublevel remained damp and slightly warm.
This whitening cream was made with an incomplete formula, which is why it caused problems when applied to the face.
However, the cream produced with this incomplete formula had been left in this warm, damp environment for a long time, allowing the medicinal properties to fully integrate and undergo microbial fermentation.
Now, while this batch of whitening cream couldn't be used as a product in its current state, it could serve as a main ingredient for Imperial Concubine's Beauty Cream.
Imperial Concubine's Beauty Cream was a secret recipe from the palace, exclusively used by Imperial Concubine Yang in the past.
Just by smelling it, I was only 80% sure. With cosmetics, they need to be tested by women.
So, Qin Feng looked towards Ran Jie.
"Secretary Ran, may I borrow your hand for a moment?"
"What are you going to do?"
Qin Feng couldn't be bothered to answer, and directly grabbed Ran Jie's hand.
Ran Jie was stunned.
"You lecher, what are you doing?"
She yelled while trying to pull her hand back.
But Qin Feng was holding on too tightly, and she simply couldn't withdraw it.
Finally, after applying some whitening cream, Qin Feng let go of her hand.
The patch of skin on the back of her hand, where the whitening cream had been applied, was noticeably more radiant than the surrounding skin.
"I'll need to borrow your face next."
Ran Jie was still confused when Qin Feng began to apply it again.
"You lecher! I'll definitely tell Mr. Xue when I get back!" Ran Jie stomped her foot in anger.
Because the lighting was dim, Qin Feng cocked his head and stared at Ran Jie's face.
After examining, he concluded, "Although the packaging is damaged, the whitening cream itself is fine and can still be utilized."
Qin Feng turned his head towards Liu Haitao and said, "Mr. Liu, I'm willing to buy back this batch of whitening cream for a hundred million yuan."
This statement stunned Liu Haitao.
He looked at Qin Feng with an incredulous face and asked, "Are you... are you serious, or are you joking with me, teasing me?"
"Of course, I'm serious. What's so fun about you for me to tease?"
Qin Feng's reply made Ran Jie anxious, as she hurriedly interjected, "Qin Feng, you're just an assistant, an intern assistant who hasn't been made permanent. You're not qualified to negotiate a buyback contract for a hundred million yuan."
"Whether I'm qualified or not, it's for Xiaochan to decide, not you!"
"With this kind of reckless behavior, Mr. Xue will definitely not agree. I will tell him everything you did today, word for word. He will surely fire you on the spot!"
Their conversation gave Liu Haitao an idea, and he quickly suggested, "How about this, Assistant Qin, you buy back seventy million yuan worth of goods first. The seventy million I gave you earlier, you can pay that to me for the goods. Once you've discussed it with Mr. Xue, bring the remaining thirty million and take the rest of the goods."
"When I said I wanted to buy back the whitening cream, I meant goods first, payment later. The one hundred million yuan has to be paid to Mr. Liu three months later."
"Assistant Qin, aren't you being a bit too oppressive? Not only did you take my seventy million, but now you also want to take this batch of goods?"
"Mr. Liu, don't you trust me?"
"You took my money and now you want to take my goods. Even invading soldiers aren't as harsh as you, and you still want me to trust you?"
"If you don't trust me, you're going to die."
"Heh, are you going to kill me?"
"I only work part-time as Xiaochan's assistant; my main job is a doctor, not a murderer. Looking at your complexion, Mr. Liu, you must be overworking yourself, depleting your energy. So much so that you feel weak in your legs after just a few steps.
You've visited old Chinese medicine practitioners and taken some medicinal tonics. Not only did it not improve your condition, but it also got worse. In addition to weak legs, you now run out of breath, and even have unexplained palpitations as if your heart is about to jump out. If you don't receive timely treatment, you could suddenly die!"
Qin Feng's words shocked Liu Haitao to the core.
Even his wife didn't know about his illness, how could Qin Feng know so clearly?
