"Yes, yes, yes, just transfer the money, it's fine. Even if I don't win over Qingqing, it's not a loss. She has a wide network, and now I've followed her here to Xia Dong..."
"You have no idea! Her sister is a famous tea king's relative here at the Tea Capital, she can even get mother tree Dahongpao. They're exporting black tea to England, selling for hundreds of pounds per ounce, unimaginable wealth..."
"Annual sales are calculated in tens of billions. If things don't work out with Qingqing, I'll just go to Qingqing or the Yiyi family I knew before." Yin Pengfei sat comfortably on the massage chair, grinning as he assured his mother on the phone that he's making efforts to get married.
Under Ansheng's gaze, after hanging up the call, Yin Pengfei took out a box of cigars, sipped his tea comfortably, then picked up a tablet from the side, as the technician who followed him into the room closed the suite door.
"Tea king Chen's relative... Qingqing?" Ansheng instinctively glanced at Yu Zhenghong and said, "Did you change the family registry?"
Indeed, there was such a figure, Tea King Chen, in Jiule City.
But he himself was not engaged in tea production; instead, he was involved in the tea import and export business. Frankly, it ans purchasing tea from agricultural countries overseas, bringing it to Xia Dong for flavor processing, and then selling it abroad as Xia Dong black tea.
Tea King Chen is indeed very wealthy, but he's from the Jiule Chen family and has little connection with the Changxi Chen family, known for their oolong tea.
Jiule City governs four counties, each minding their own business, not really caring for the city's affairs, and the city doesn't bother to make nice with them either.
The whole city is quite fragnted; the Jiule Chen family born in the city won't pay attention to the Changxi Chen family.
Their only intersection likely is the quarrels and fights during the holiday street parades?
Although Ansheng gradually realized that what Yin Pengfei said was to swindle money, he still found it absurd.
Only, old Chen and Yu Zhenghong didn't know who the Qingqing Yin Pengfei ntioned was; otherwise, a fight would definitely break out.
Ah Qing's family registry was altered, and to an arch-nesis family, no less.
"......."
When entering the suite, Yu Zhenghong placed Ansheng on the massage chair, took a photo, and promptly posted it to his social dia.
"Oh~ Since hiring Master Fox, business at ho has gotten busy, draining every day, with backaches and osteoporosis setting in."
"Work hard! Make money! Big money! Keep inviting Master Fox to improve our living standards every day!"
While posting, Yu Zhenghong attached a photo of the "Hailinglong" sign and Ansheng sitting curiously on the massage chair, gazing at a line of pedicure technicians entering the room.
The social needs of middle-aged adults are much more intense than those of young people, though primarily revolving around career, family, and sophisticated showboating.
In Xia Dong, socializing involves sitting down to drink tea and talk about money-making.
Sending a direct advertisent of Hailinglong is too tacky; Chen Peipei might even strangle him.
But likening it to Master Fox fits the scene well.
Yu Zhenghong smugly put away his phone, reclining on the massage chair to indulge in a life he had never experienced before.
Foot massages were sothing Yu Zhenghong would occasionally indulge in.
But such a high-end place, he had never visited.
"Change them! I feel like getting a foot massage here is even worse than at ho!"
Ansheng gave the technicians a once-over, revealing an imdiately discontented expression.
Spending so much, technical skills aside, at least in appearance they should be able to compete against Ah Qing and Momo, right?
If not, why charge so much? The emotional value here doesn't match what's at ho!
"Huh?"
Lying on their chairs, ready for a relaxing massage, old Chen and Yu Zhenghong exchanged perplexed glances at the little fox making the fuss.
"This little custor... seems to be suggesting that our technician's service should be upgraded."
The experienced technician beside, after so thought, voiced her guess.
It's perfectly normal for a fox to be a custor.
So wealthy people enjoy inviting auspicious animals ho as spirits to bless the household with safety and peace.
Though uncommon, Hailinglong's training course does cover this.
The big boss of their establishnt has a rare mutated color golden hedgehog enshrined in the club.
......
"Oh~ it's Master Fox!"
Due to the additional cost of upgrading the service, Ansheng didn't get his wish and had to settle for a voluptuous older sister.
However, compared to old Chen and their relaxed, almost sleepy state of comfort.
Ansheng couldn't shake a feeling of unease.
The big sister washed his hands and feet, trimd his claws with manicure tools, but her small hands were mischievous throughout the service, constantly kneading his little paw pads in addition to the regular massage.
During the back and shoulder massage while soaking his feet, Ansheng constantly felt like she was petting a fox.
"So, does this an I've co here and paid to be treated like a stray getting petted?" The little fox, in sudden realization:
"Oh no! I've fallen for a big trick by humans!"
"Isn't this a scam? No, you should be paying for giving you the chance to wash my feet!"
The little fox's groan of complaint rely earned a gleeful pat from the big sister.
Compared to washing a hedgehog's feet, washing a fox's is pure enjoynt.
In the entire process, you can hear Master Fox's gentle rumbling, much like an oversized fluffy cat.
"So obedient~ No wonder it's Master Fox," the big sister cooed with maternal affection, pinching the little fox's chin.
"Master no way! I fell for your big trick," the little fox rolled its eyes and spat at the big sister.
Yet Master Fox's playful "bleh" appeared exceptionally adorable to the technician sister. She even snapped a photo, posting it to her social dia with the caption:
"Adorable little fox that sticks out its tiny tongue."
Feeling he had been taken advantage of, the little fox, unable to verbally express itself, could only gnash its teeth and bear this silent injustice.
"Tonight, get rid of them. Hmph, as if nobody knows how important it is to hire a master, not considering who controls this stretch of hidden waterways. Newbies think they can co over and steal our al tickets!—Hailinglong's big boss sneered coldly, eyeing the Golden Hedgehog, urging it to accompany Da Fei on a sea voyage tonight to retrieve the batch of 5090D that went missing recently."
"Wish Fulfilled: Missing 5090 (Captain has never suffered such a grievance since going to sea, whether the price of graphics cards drops or not, the captain doesn't care, but he truly wants to fight now)"
Amidst the technician big sister across from Ansheng, he suddenly saw a wild wish pop up in his mind, which imdiately caught his attention.
"What? The Golden Hedgehog is at Hailinglong?"
"No way! Are you planning to take out my old pal?" Ansheng's head snapped up from the massage chair in shock upon seeing the wild wish.
