Chapter 256 Beverly’s Invitation
"One thousand gallons of brandy, five hundred gallons of whiskey, settle in cash."
The two of them thought that Cheng Mu would only buy one or two hundred gallons for the first time. Unexpectedly, the amount exceeded their expectations, so they were stunned for a while before they realized what was going on.
"This...how long will it take you to consume so much wine?"
"If nothing else, I will come almost every week, but your price will be cheaper for me."
"Cheng, as a processing factory, our profit margin is also very low, but in order to show our sincerity, we can give up another 5 points on the price."
"This is the lowest price. Even if we purchase larger quantities in the future, it will not be lower."
"No problem. Calculate how much it costs, and then help me carry the wine to my car parked outside."
"Okay, you sit down for a while and have some snacks. I'll make arrangements now."
………
After about half an hour, all the fifteen hundred gallons of wine Cheng Mu needed were loaded into the car.
During this period, the black and white brothers also invited Cheng Mu to stay away from home that night and go to a nearby nightclub to chat about life. Of course, Cheng Mu sternly refused, making them think that Cheng Mu was a gentleman.
The main reason was that Cheng Mu was thinking about Yun Qi and Little Green Tea.
When you meet a beautiful woman, you can just look at her, but you can't really do anything.
However, the black and white brothers are quite sensible, and they look like serious illegal businessmen, without so many twists and turns.
If there are no surprises in the future, Cheng Mu plans to get the goods here.
It's half an hour's drive from Patrick Village to my home. Fortunately, there aren't many drunk driving enforcement agencies in the beautiful country.
Even if there is, just put some money in and forget about it.
More than an hour is neither long nor short.
By the time Cheng Mu returned home, it was already dark.
The people in the room were still worried that something had happened to Cheng Mu after not seeing anyone for so long.
Fortunately, they still have confidence in Cheng Mu's ability.
They saw Cheng Mu driving back in a new car with many large barrels in the back. Although they didn't know what was in it, it must be something useful to them.
So everyone in the room rushed out in droves.
They were all still in high spirits, the attack last night was still fresh in their minds, and they were both nervous and excited.
So when Cheng Mu told them that they needed to move things, they were full of energy.
It took almost half an hour for everyone to finish moving the wine.
Including Cheng Mu himself, he was already growling with hunger.
I originally thought about going to a restaurant to have a big meal, but considering that there were so many of them and they were too conspicuous, I let the two of them go out and buy some food.
………
After everyone finished eating, they began to lie down and chat on the second floor. A few people were left on the first floor to deal with the customers who came to buy drinks. Another function was to see if there were any emergencies nearby.
Although the chance of discovering what happened last night was very low, we had to guard against it.
The current wine in the warehouse plus the remaining wine is enough for them to consume for a week, so they basically don't have to go out during this period.
To be on the safe side and to learn from past mistakes, Cheng Mu decided to send a group of people to keep watch at night, and then everyone could alternate the vigil.
As the boss, Cheng Mu should naturally take the lead. If nothing else, he should have participated at least on the first night.
So after everyone else went to bed, he stayed on the first floor with a few people, playing cards and chatting.
Just bragging, chatting and playing cards like this, the whole night passed quickly.
By six or seven in the morning, people were waking up one after another. After Cheng Mu and others had a quick bite, they went to bed.
………
Cheng Mu didn't wake up until two or three in the afternoon. The first thing he did when he woke up was to open his panel. [Gang Loyalty: Hongmen Qingmudang (67%)]
[American Iihe Level: lv2 (161/500)]
[American Iai effect: it can moderately increase the speed of drawing a gun and the accuracy of shooting]
[Glib tongue level: lv2 (2/100)]
[The effect of a eloquent tongue: it can moderately increase the chance of persuading others]
As time went by, the glib got an upgrade.
Cheng Mu is currently thinking about when he can get the next skill.
These two skills alone will not be of much help in unifying the five major gangs.
"Boss!"
While Cheng Mu was thinking about these things, a voice from downstairs interrupted his thoughts.
"What happened?"
"I met Officer Beverly when I was out doing errands just now, and he asked you to go to his house for dinner tonight."
What does he want from me? Cheng Mu's weekly money was delivered on time, so Cheng Mu was a little unclear as to what he was looking for.
"Okay, I get it."
Anyway, you’ll know if you go there at night and take a look, it’s only a few hundred meters away.
………
Cheng Mu got up and didn't think much about Beverly. He washed up and ate some bread bought by others in the morning.
Then he drove the pickup truck he bought yesterday in the direction of the shooting range near the black market.
He was thinking about the development of gangs while driving on the road.
Since their liquor business has grown, some hoodlums from the Grand neighborhood have wanted to join their gang.
However, these people were all declined by Cheng Mu.
The things they are currently doing as a gang can only be done by core members. If they recruit other members rashly, they will be able to do what they want.
If the news leaks out, it will be a disaster for their gang.
But if you want to develop a gang, you must recruit other people.
But these are things they will consider in the future. At present, a dozen people can handle all the affairs of their gang.
While thinking, Cheng Mu had already driven the car to the shooting range.
He walked into the shooting range, fired a pistol as usual, and left as usual.
When Cheng Mu returned home, it was already past five o'clock in the afternoon.
He went to the bathroom to take a shower, tidy up his appearance, and then walked out of the room, preparing to go to Officer Beverly's house.
He went to buy some gifts first, and then turned back to Beverly's house.
Although the two of them were already very familiar with each other, Cheng Mu still understood why Li Duoduo did not blame them.
Cheng Mu knocked on Beverly's door with a bunch of gifts.
It was Mrs. Beverly who opened the door. Cheng Mu had been here several times, so Mrs. Beverly directly invited him into the room with a smile.
"Beverly hasn't come back yet, please sit down for a while and I'll prepare dinner."
Cheng Mu had nothing to be embarrassed about. After sitting in the room and playing with the two children for a while, Beverly came back.
To his surprise, Beverly didn't ask him for any requests during dinner. Instead, she talked to him about the turmoil that happened two nights ago and asked him to pay attention to his safety.
