After Sun Caifu and his son left, Ye Haoran followed him out.
He didn't have any channels, he just deceived Sun Caifu. If he could deceive, he would go astray, and if he could, he would deceive him. If it didn't work, he could delay it for a while and let him think of a solution.
Walking on the street wearing a clean coat, the atmosphere of the times hits your face, and every era has its own unique color.
There are rickshaw stalls on the roadside, Tsing Yi Hua Dan theaters, street jugglers, foreigners’ dance halls and whiskey, and the actors sing all over the world, but the people’s lives are difficult.
"Hotdog! hotdog!" (hot dog)
A foreigner was riding a bicycle, wearing a shabby vest and hat, hawking hot dogs.
"Hi."
"?"
"Ye!"
Ye Haoran stepped forward and said hello: "Is Ayou OK?"
"I am fine!"
Ye Haoran glanced up and down and said, "You're not very good. You're having a bad life, right?"
The two stood on the street and chatted.
The hot dog seller doesn't speak Chinese, but Ye Haoran's English is very good.
"I feel pretty good about myself."
"American?"
"Yes."
After chatting for a while, Ye Haoran knew most of this person's information, which met Ye Haoran's requirements.
His name is Amy Cassel. He was originally a miner in the United States. Later, when the factory closed down, he took his wife on a ship and wanted to come here to make a fortune. However, he couldn't learn Chinese and ended up in a worse situation.
Amy's wife gave birth to a son for him. Since life was not good when he returned to China, he simply stayed here.
His wife worked as a maid in a British gentleman's house, and Amy sold hot dogs on the street. Their status as foreigners also allowed them to make some money.
At least it's much better than living in the United States.
Ye Haoran took him to a remote place and asked, "Do you want to get rich?"
"How to make a fortune?"
"Do you want a job that will allow you to join the upper class, whether here or in the United States?"
"Just you? Stop joking!"
Amy didn't believe it.
Ye Haoran was not in a hurry, but was going to take Amy home to chat.
The two of them chatted for a while on the way, but it was actually Ye Haoran who was trying to get some information.
Learn about the national conditions in the United States.
A war broke out in the third year of the Republic of China, which was a declaration of war by capitalism against imperialism. Several wars reduced all the imperialist royal families in Europe to nothing.
The United States is the most successful capitalist country.
The total number of private cars in Europe is less than one-third of that in the United States, which proves that the current development of the United States is indeed rapid.
The good thing is that as long as you have money, you can buy anything.
Back home, Ye Haoran and Amy sat in the main hall drinking tea.
Amy had seen this kind of ancient house, but never entered it. Only after entering Ye Haoran's home did she believe some of Ye Haoran's words.
The two continued to communicate in English, but Defu next to them couldn't understand a word.
"The business I'm talking about is very simple. My family makes fabrics. I want to sell the fabrics to the United States. How do you feel?"
Amy hesitated and said, "I'm just a miner. I don't know much about this, but it's true that many people like what you have here, which is very good."
Ye Haoran nodded, and then asked: "Can you go back to the United States first to see the market situation?"
Amy said without any hesitation: "That's no problem, but I don't have any money."
"I'll pay for it, but I have requirements."
"any request?"
Amy is a miner. He came here just to make money. Now he has no choice but to maintain this kind of life. If there is a chance to make money, or as Ye Haoran said, he can join the upper class society, of course he is willing to try it.
Ye Haoran said directly and frankly: "Let your child live with me and pick him up when you come back. Amy, you have to understand that we haven't reached a familiar relationship yet."
This time it was Amy's turn to hesitate. He wanted to make money, but he didn't want to take his son as a hostage for fear of not being able to eat or sleep well here.
Ye Haoran advised: "Don't worry, you can eat and sleep with my children, or you can let your lover come here to take care of them. What I want is to make money, not to hurt anyone."
Amy still did not agree immediately, but said, "I want to discuss it with my wife."
"Okay, give me an answer tomorrow. I'm also very pressed for time."
Amy had a meal at Ye Haoran's house before pushing her bicycle away.
Ye Haoran was just about to go back to his room when he was stopped by his second concubine.
"Haoran, where did you find the foreign devil?"
Ye Haoran didn't explain too much: "It's just for business, you don't have to worry."
The second aunt did not dwell on this topic anymore, but said: "I have a brother in Chuansha. He is your third uncle. I just wanted to take my brother over, so he was killed on the road. I just want to ask, do you want to take him over?" The master’s brother took it, after all, it was the master’s last thought.”
Ye Haoran really didn't know this situation, but he couldn't leave now.
If the immediate problem is not solved, the whole family will be destroyed, and there will be no need to pick up relatives.
But he still said: "Er Niang, please ask Laifu to send a message over there, and let Third Uncle come by himself. I can't leave now."
When he returned home, he started practicing calligraphy. Nowadays, most people still use calligraphy brushes. It would be unreasonable if he couldn't write at all.
The next day.
Early in the morning, Amy brought a mother and son to Ye Haoran's house.
"Mr. Ye, this is my lover Natasi Cassel and my child Kirk Cassel."
Ye Haoran just nodded and said hello, and asked Amy: "Mr. Amy Cassel, have you considered it?"
"It's obvious."
Ye Haoran told Defu who was following him: "Go and find a room for Mr. Amy's wife and children to live in. They will live with us for a while."
Defu said strangely: "Master, why did you take Maozi in? Our life is already very bad..."
Ye Haoran glared and scolded: "You talk a lot, just do whatever I ask you to do."
"I understand, Master."
Defu took Amy's wife and children to the guest room, while Ye Haoran took Amy out of Ye's house.
On the way, Ye Haoran warned: "You have to package yourself as a member of the upper class, so that everything you do will be much easier."
Amy was not embarrassed and said directly, "But I have no money."
"I have."
Ye Haoran took Amy to choose a decent outfit, and taught Amy how to walk, sit upright, drink tea and eat.
These are simple things that can be mastered once taught. These are just temporary things to deal with.
Finally, he took Amy to Sun Caifu's home. After entering the old house, Ye Haoran began to look around and walked all the way to the main hall where guests were received.
"Why is my nephew here?"
Sun Caifu didn't get up, but sat on the chair and asked with a smile.
Ye Haoran introduced: "This is Mr. Amy Cassel, an American broker. Mr. Amy handled the customs clearance documents."
Upon hearing Ye Haoran's introduction, Sun Caifu quickly stood up and greeted him enthusiastically.
It's a pity that the two of them speak different languages and can't communicate at all. Only Ye Haoran acts as a translator.
As for what the two said, only Ye Haoran understood, and it was not translated according to his own thoughts.
"Uncle Sun, Mr. Amy is going back to China soon, and I will just bring him to meet you."
Sun Caifu was concerned about money, so he asked, "Can the goods be put on the ship?"
Ye Haoran shook his head: "No, Mr. Amy needs to find a buyer again. The transaction before my father left is also invalid, so we can only contact him again."
"What do you mean by good nephew?" Sun Caifu was not stupid. If he were stupid, he wouldn't be where he is today.
Ye Haoran explained (): "Money is needed to operate a bribery relationship, and Uncle Sun also knows about my family's situation."
"Isn't it appropriate to charge money if the transaction is not successful?" Sun Caifu asked cautiously.
Ye Haoran said calmly: "Uncle Sun is too worried. Am I still here? This is the rule of international brokers. My family also spent a lot of money to smoothen the relationship."
Sun Caifu hesitated for a long time before nodding and said: "Okay, tell me how much you want."
