Chapter 132: Chapter 132: Making Money While Standing

Since he didn’t have a partner to introduce to his mother, Feng Jun could only find a more sufficient reason, “I’ve been busy with work lately, and haven’t you and dad said? A man should first establish a career before starting a family.” This was the teaching of Feng Wenhui and his wife, since their union was hard- won, they naturally did not wish for their son to live as arduously, so although Feng Jun was also the only son, he wasn’t instilled with the idea that “continuing the family line is the utmost priority.” in fact, this concept was strongly advocated by his mother, Zhang Junyi, while Feng Wenhui simply went along with his wife1 s wishes.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Junyi immediately remembered their own generator and asked with a face full of caution, “How can you make so much money. Our family has never been involved in any dishonest dealings!

The saying “No business without guile” does not apply to Feng Wenhui and his spouse, who, as small business owners, often just earned a hard living.

Moreover, they conducted their business in a small county town where all their customers were acquaintances, and once their reputation was tarnished, they’d be finished.

Therefore, her requirements for her son were also to “earn money standing upright” – -although these days, there were too few people who could achieve this ideal, especially those involved in big business; how many could declare they earned their money standing upright?

But in the world, there are always some people who insist on sticking to their principles, no matter how ridiculous or outdated they may seem.

Feng Jun knew his mother’s temperament so he immediately made a solemn promise, “I definitely earn money openly and honestly. Not to mention anything else, Xu Leigang’s father, who was the commander of the Zhengyang military sub-district before he passed away, must trust me if he dared to lend his villa to me, right?”

This reason was quite persuasive. Zhang Junyi had sharp judgment, she knew that the commander of a military sub-district was the boss of county armed forces leaders, not to mention the commander of a large city like Zhengyang.

But she still had her doubts, “What exactly is this jade business you’re doing, and why would someone be willing to lend you such a large house… This house must be worth several million at least, right?”

When asking this, Zhang Junyi had fully taken the real estate prices of Zhengyang City into account, several million was simply unimaginable for her and her husband’s shop-they couldn’t earn that much in their lifetime relying on the shop alone.

But she couldn’t imagine that the value of the villa was actually an order of magnitude higher than her estimate.

Feng Jun laughed, “I’ve just discovered a jade source that no one else knows about. But I can’t say exactly where it is.”

Zhang Junyi nodded upon hearing this, she could accept this answer. If there was a superior source of goods, business would naturally be good, “You just be careful not to let anyone find out, and if things get tough, make enough money and then get out.”

She could estimate the risks involved, and naturally advised her son to know when to let go.

“That’s not a problem,” Feng Jun said with a smile, comforting his mother, “I’m working in partnership with others, sharing the risk together. My main responsibility is management… after all, I studied business administration.” As soon as she heard there were partners involved, Zhang Junyi’s heart was essentially put at ease, “Then you also need to be diligent and show your worth…”

Her arrival brought the greatest convenience to Feng Jun, which was cooking for him every day- -in the memory of every son, the food made by a mother always tastes sweet and delicious.

Zhang Junyi stayed in Zhengyang for only five days before hurrying back home- -the store was run by just the couple, and once she left, the store was down by half its workforce. Feng Wenhui didn’t want to hire anyone, so he had to grit his teeth and endure the hardship.

During those five days, Feng Jun did nothing else, pretending to go out during the day, but actually, he went to charge up at the villa in the deserted mountain. At night, he slept and charged in Peach Blossom Valley.

During these days, Sister Hong also completed negotiations with Li Dafu and Henglong. Li Dafu bought seven pieces of jade, while Henglong bought five. The remaining quantity of jade stones was not enough to hold another auction.

These twelve jade stones sold for over 70 million yuan, which was a lot lower than what Feng Jun estimated-in fact, his estimate was indeed a bit optimistic. After all, the high prices at the last auction were mainly due to the state of mind of the bidders, which was far from calm.

Anything in the world is more valuable the rarer it is. Once the quantity increases, the price will dive; this is a market rule and does not change for anybody’s will.

In Zhengyang City’s jewelry industry, there were already individuals saying- “Boss Feng’s jades have depressed the entry price of jade stones a bit.” This comment was said in jest, but without question, if Feng Jun continued to sell jades at this rate, it wouldn’t take long to truly bring down the price of jade stones.

Sister Hong keenly noticed this and so she discussed it with Feng Jun, “It seems that in the short term, it’s not convenient to sell jade in Zhengyang anymore… I have some connections in Tiannan Province, can we sell them there?” “It’s up to you,” Feng Jun said with a laugh, spreading his arms. He had once stated he wouldn’t actively sell jade out of the province, but if someone volunteered, he wouldn’t stop them-after all, they were helping him make money.

Sister Hong glared at him irritably, “You’ re shirking your responsibilities so comfortably. I still need to think about selling the jade out of province… The thing is too coveted by others.”

“I don’t mind,” Feng Jun shrugged his shoulders indifferently, looking at her with a half-smile, “You’ve made your money already, and you’ve also helped your friend raise funds.”

Over 70 million in jade sales, and Sister Hong just took in over seven million in commission. Out of Feng Jun’s remaining 60-plus million, he spent 45 million on purchasing land, leaving him with over 20 million to build a villa, in other words, he did nothing more than take a trip to the Cultivation Plane and, without lifting a finger, ended up with a plot of land and even the money to build a house, with people running errands for him-the 7-plus million Sister Hong pocketed was not for nothing.

Thinking back, not long ago, he had nearly broken his legs trying to sell a piece of jade He experienced countless cold shoulders and, after getting the money, he had to pull a swift Golden Cicada shedding its shell maneuver to shake off the greedy gazes and escape potential crises.

Now, without having to make any appearances, a considerable amount of money had come back to him. The difference in situations was like night and day.

“Hey hey, it seems like you’re the one making the big bucks, right?” Sister Hong huffed dissatisfiedly, then her eyes darted about, “Don’t wor^, just keep bringing the jade back. I’ll handle the sales… Can I take full charge?” “Giving you full charge isn’t out of the question,” Feng Jun dragged out his voice, looking at her with a smile, “But in that case, you’d have control over my sales channel, and for that, you’ll have to pay a price, right?

Sister Hong felt a little flustered under his gaze but tried to remain calm as she answered, “You were planning to sell from home anyway, how important are channels to you?”

“Hehe,” Feng Jun chuckled, “But…my lifeline would be in your hands.” “Can you not be so immature,” Sister Hong snapped at him with annoyance, “Always going off on a tangent when we’re talking about business, is that really fun for you?”

“Eh, what tangent?” Feng Jun blinked innocently, looking at her, “What exactly are you thinking about?”

Sister Hong couldn’t stand his rascally tone and stood up decisively, “I’ve already told you, stop flirting with me… Just make sure there’s plenty of jade in stock, leave the rest to me.”

Feng Jun watched her graceful figure as she left, a slight smile on his face. The timing… was probably about right, wasn t it?

On the third day after his mother left, Xu Leigang sneaked over to the villa, “Look, Master Feng, what have I brought for you?”

He had acquired fifty grenades, forty artillery shells, and… a mortar!

“This was a huge risk… If you use these in the country, we’ re both dead for sure.”

According to him, getting the shells was relatively easy. The grenades took favors from three people to amass this many, and the mortar was a miraculous exchange from an old, inoperative one, costing him considerable favors. Everything was negotiable except for the mortar. The person who exchanged it also took a huge risk.

“Don’t worry,” Feng Jun said with a smile, “I’ll fight for the Cultivation Technique you want… I still have millions in your hands, what’s there to worry about?”

Even with millions… it can’t buy life, Xu Leigang muttered to himself, but he was genuinely delighted by the previous remark, “Then I’m counting on you for the Cultivation Technique… By the way, do you have any more Body Tempering Pills?”

A few days earlier, he had consumed the last quarter of a Body Tempering Pill. The effect on his body was significant; he was starting to lose weight and felt full of energy. Many acquaintances kept asking him which weight loss method he had chosen.

Xu Leigang could only smile and say, “Exercise, consistent exercise… Trust me, you can do it too.”

So he hoped to get another Body Tempering Pill-those things were really effective.

However, Feng Jun shook his head, “Not to say I don’t have it, but I can’t give it to you yet. In the future, when you acquire the Cultivation Technique and start cultivating Qi, you will need the Body Tempering Pills to aid your Cultivation… You can’t have too many of them.”

Not supposed to have too many? Xu Leigang was initially stunned, then he nodded eagerly, “Alright, no problem, I’ll follow your arrangement.” Even if he was naive, he knew one fact: If Master Feng wasn’t intending to help him get the Cultivation Technique, why would he say all this?

Anyway, even if he didn’t read web novels, he knew the adage “all medicines have their side effects.”

As they were conversing, Feng Jun’s mobile phone rang. It was Sister Hong on the line, “Wang Weimin has been released on bail due to illness…

Feng Jun was silent for a moment before he hummed softly, “Alright, I got it.” “I’ve already tried to apply pressure through connections,” Sister Hong sighed resignedly, “But Jubaozhai really pushed hard for it. It’s not appropriate to involve people too high up for this kind of issue.
