Chapter 341: Chapter 341: Let’s Make Money Together

Xue Haoping and the three others instinctively looked toward the security guard.

"Were you eavesdropping on us?" a young man frowned and asked.

The security guard smiled and said, "Don’t misunderstand, I just happened to overhear. If you’re going to see Mr. Qin, you better hurry, or you won’t even get a number. So many people are looking for him these days."

"What do you mean?" Xue Haoping asked.

"I don’t know why, but recently many people have been coming to see Mr. Qin. If you also need to see him, you should quickly visit the Duan Family office to get a number; otherwise, you won’t get to meet him."

Xue Haoping and the three others looked bewildered.

"Are you talking about Qin Yi?"

"Yes, that’s right!" the security guard responded.

"Do you need a number to see him?"

The security guard laughed, "There are so many people wanting to meet Mr. Qin, he can’t possibly see everyone without a number system."

"Where do we get this number?"

The security guard replied, "Just ask anyone outside and you’ll find out."

Xue Haoping thanked him and hurriedly left the hotel.

"I thought we were the earliest to arrive, didn’t expect to be beaten to it."

"We need to hurry, or we’ll have to stay here a few more days, and it’s over a million a day."

No one’s money comes easily, and though they weren’t short on cash, they didn’t want to be suckers.

"Excuse me, do you know where the Duan Family office is?"

Xue Haoping and the three others politely asked the two men they approached.

The two men were smoking, glanced at each other, tossed their cigarettes, and smiled, "Of course we know!"

"Could you please point us in the right direction?"

"Sure, but it’s not easy to find. We can take you there, but..." the young man rubbed his fingers together.

Everyone knows what that means, pay them to do the job.

Xue Haoping and the others’ expressions darkened. Were the people of Yinfeng City all bandits?

Xue Haoping grimaced and took out one hundred, offering it.

But the young man didn’t even look, clearly signaling it wasn’t enough.

"How much, then?"

The young man grinned, "A thousand, and I’ll personally take you to the place."

"I’m not trying to rip you off. Everyone charges the same to the Duan Family office. You can ask others if you don’t believe us, just don’t say we’re scamming you."

Xue Haoping, scowling, paid the thousand.

The young man took the money and immediately smiled broadly, "Please, get in the car!"

There was an old van parked on the roadside, and the young man opened the car door.

Xue Haoping and the others looked even more displeased, gritting their teeth as they got into the vehicle.

The two men drove them through several turns, eventually stopping in front of an unmarked store.

"Here we are! This is the place," they announced to the four.

Xue Haoping and the others examined it with suspicion; there wasn’t even a sign.

"Are you sure?"

The driver laughed, "Don’t worry, we do things by the rules, we won’t deceive you."

"If you dare trick us, no one will save either of your lives," said a young man with a fierce gaze.

The young men who brought them here exchanged smiles, unfazed. They were Zhang Wenhao’s subordinates, following orders to fleece such people mercilessly.

In fact, every hotel entrance in Yinfeng City had someone leading the way. Not putting up a sign was to give these small-time gangsters a chance to earn money.

The higher-ups feast on the big cuts, they leave some broth for the underlings. Everyone gets to make money together.

This time, all the small gangs in Yinfeng City benefitted, charging eight hundred to a thousand just to lead the way made for easy money.

Xue Haoping and the others entered the signless store, finding the interior pleasantly decorated, albeit small, with a few sofas and desks.

The attendants were two beautiful girls, specifically hired by Dong Zhiping.

Beautiful things or people always lift one’s mood and make spending money feel effortless. No man wants to lose face in front of a beauty.

The two girls stood up and greeted them with a bow.

"Are you here for number plates?" the girl’s voice was sweet enough to induce diabetes, making one’s bones melt.

This time, to thoroughly fleece these Qi Refiners, they racked their brains, employing everything from beauty traps to psychological tactics.

But the aim was singular: to make money.

Facing two such beautiful girls, Xue Haoping and the others unconsciously straightened their backs.

"Yes, we’re here for number plates."

The other girl sweetly asked, "So would you like regular number plates or VIP number plates?"

Naturally, the four didn’t want to lower their status.

"Of course, we want VIP number plates!"

"Do all four of you want VIP number plates?"

They nodded simultaneously; none would admit they were lesser or weaker than others.

"Very well! You all have an extraordinary aura, clearly VIP plates are fitting for your status. Four VIP number plates cost twenty million in total."

Their smiles instantly froze.

Twenty million?

Is a single plate really worth five million, made of diamonds?

The girl, smiling sweetly, looked at the four of them, "So, which of you handsome guys will pay?"

The four were utterly embarrassed.

They had been so imposing just moments before, and now backing down would be too humiliating.

"What kind of number plates cost five million? And how much are the regular ones?"

"Sir, regular number plates cost three million, but with a VIP number plate, you can cut in line when meeting Mr. Qin. With regular plates, you have to wait. Given your status, waiting time could easily reclaim this two-million difference."

"For wealthy individuals, time is indeed valuable. So five million really isn’t much."

The four of them exchanged looks, feeling like suckers.

"Miss, who set these number plate rules?"

"We don’t know that! We’re just employees."

They exchanged another look, gritted their teeth, and agreed. To back out now would be too shameful.

Surely more Qi Refiners would come to see Qin Yi later. If the two girls used them as an example of what not to do, it wouldn’t just be their own dignity lost, but also their families’.

"Four VIP number plates," Xue Haoping gritted out.

"You gentlemen truly are young and affluent; bold and handsome in your expenditures," the girl laid on the flattery thick.

But Xue Haoping couldn’t feel a bit happy. He just felt like he’d been fleeced, and the compliments seemed like slaps to their faces, uncomfortable and irksome.

After transferring the money and getting the plates, they did not want to linger. Outside, they just stared blankly at the thin paper cards in their hands.

These weren’t even as well made as business cards, just small white cards with VIP printed on them, and a QR code beneath. Scanning it took them to a mini app where they registered their identities.

The four almost cried; they had just spent twenty million on four cards too rough to wipe with.
