Future Stamps and Coins Diary

Chapter 39: The Bombshell
At 12:9 am on December , Panxi Restaurant was already crowded with people.

With the experience from last time, Lu Feng set out at 10 o'clock this time. In order to avoid traffic jams, he avoided the lunch rush hour. After sitting down, he sent the seat number information to the two people.

"Wait a minute, we just went out." Xie Jiao'e finally replied at eleven o'clock.

Lu Feng originally wanted to order some tea, but after looking at the price, he couldn't bring himself to buy it. He sat there for half an hour, and finally saw the "Er Gen Xia Lu" coming together.

Seeing that Lu Feng was about to get up, the two men quickened their pace.

"Boss Lu, don't be so polite all the time. Come on, sit down..." Liu Sangen smiled and put a gift box on the table, saying, "It's just a little gift. Boss Lu, take it and try it."

It is impolite not to reciprocate, and the two of them naturally understood this.

But they are just local specialties, not good stuff. Friendship is the most important thing.

"Still the same things? Or some fruit platter after the meal?" This time, Lu Feng was already familiar with the process and arranged everything quickly.

"Why don't you call Xiao Xu along?" Xie Jiao'e asked curiously.

"Sister Xu said she has some things to deal with and can't get away for now. I'll invite you two later." Lu Feng responded, reaching out to put a handbag on an empty chair next to him, patting it, and took out a prepared piece of paper from his pocket and handed it to Liu Sangen, "This is the sales data for the past 14 days, as well as the price comparison before and after the price increase. Please take a look."

Liu Sangen took the paper and did not open it. Instead, he placed it on his left hand side intact and pressed it with the cup. He smiled and shook his head and said, "If there is not even this little trust, what is the point of doing business. Come, let's drink tea instead of wine to celebrate this complete success."

"cheers!"

"cheers!"

"cheers!"

The tea went down their throats, and the dishes were served. The three of them ate and chatted.

Liu Sangen and Xie Jiao'e brought new news.

"In the past two days, I have heard feedback from some old friends, saying that more than a dozen other stores have called them and asked them to come to their stores to check out the goods. If I am not mistaken, they should have taken action."

The two looked at each other. In fact, Madron had already contacted them and expressed his willingness to cooperate. The two did not want to say it clearly, and instead used the words "feedback from other old friends" to remind him.

Lu Feng waved his hand: "It's okay, let them go. They won't cause any trouble."

The prices of these two varieties have risen a lot recently. If we continue to sell them at this time, the profits will hardly cover the costs.

It can be said to be thankless.

Seeing that Lu Feng didn't care, the two didn't continue to dwell on this issue.

After all, they knew in their hearts that it was impossible to cooperate with them again because they had discovered serious problems.

"I have another professional question that I would like to ask Mr. Lu," Liu Sangen continued.

Lu Feng nodded quickly.

Liu Sangen opened his handbag, took out a set of the fourth complete set and pushed it in front of Lu Feng.

The collection was wrapped in ordinary plastic film, with only the top dimes showing.

Lu Feng took it, opened it, glanced at it, and put it down. He already knew what he was going to ask. "This is the senior set that has been on the market for some time. An old friend of mine bought this set. Does Mr. Lu see any problems?"

"Of course!" Lv Feng said truthfully. This set is undoubtedly not a regular version, but an 8050 cut version.

Liu Sangen and Xie Jiao'e looked at each other and frowned: "I didn't pay attention to it at first, but I have been in contact with the seniors of Changcheng and Kangyin Pavilion for a long time in the past few days, and I have discovered something, but I am not sure, so..."

"Don't doubt it. The truth is what you two think." Lu Feng gently took out the green 80 version 50 yuan note from the complete set and placed it on the top. He pointed to the two serial numbers of the note and said, "The difference between the 8050 four-piece cut version of the four-yuan note and the ordinary four-yuan note is actually very simple. You can tell the difference by looking at the serial number of the eight-digit 8050 note. Look... this one is 'EE'..."

Lu Feng paused and continued, "'EE' is the common serial number for the four-edition conjoined banknotes. As long as it is EE, it can almost be confirmed that it is sold by cutting out the four-edition conjoined banknotes of 8050 and replacing the original version."

Liu Sangen said in a deep voice: "In other words, what they bought were actually fakes?"

Lu Feng shook his head: "It's hard to say whether this is true or not, but strictly speaking, it's a form of deception. An ordinary 8050 sheet costs about one thousand now, and the cost of the cut version is only sixty or seventy at most. The whole set costs half of the original."

"They didn't say it clearly when they sold it, so isn't it a fake?" Xie Jiao'e became a little excited.

Only then did Lu Feng realize that the senior in front of him was a typical example of "I have a friend". In fact, the two of them were deceived and only now came to their senses.

"Do you two know why Sister Xu broke up with the other shareholders of Jiuzang?" Lu Feng asked.

"Because of this?" Liu Sangen pointed at the cut version of the senior.

The two of them are not fools, of course they understand it immediately.

Lu Feng nodded and said, "That's right. In fact, Jiuzang has always been promoting the regular version of the senior year, and I am the one who supplies them."

The two were a little surprised when they heard this. They didn't expect that Lu Feng was a professional.

Lu Feng continued, "I had already signed an exclusive supply agreement with Jiu Zang, but one day Sister Xu called me to Jiu Zang's office. That's when I learned that there was a cut-down version of the senior high school on the market, and the cost was half as much."

"At that time, the six shareholders voted, and everyone except Ms. Xu wanted to replace the original with the cut version. I told them on the spot that if they wanted to sell the cut version with such a big difference, they must make it clear to customers, otherwise it might lead to fraud. However, Ms. Xu and I were outnumbered and ultimately failed to win over the other five."

"A few days later, I learned that in order to avoid falling into this pit, Sister Xu resolutely decided to buy eight stores and start her own business with the people she had trained. Then she found me, and that's how we got the new Jiuzang."

"Then why didn't you say it earlier?" Liu Sangen was a little unhappy.

Lu Feng could understand their current mood and said with a smile: "Have you two forgotten what Sister Xu told you when you first met? Some words cannot come out of her mouth, otherwise it will be distorted. After all, she was a shareholder of Jiuzang in the past. If she says it out and it is exposed, you two will definitely think that she is doing it behind her back..."

"That's right! Even if you told us at that time, we might not believe it." Xie Jiao'e said.

"Now, you two should know the ins and outs of this matter, and also know why almost all terminal collection companies are promoting the senior year, right?"

"Fraud! This is a fraud!" Liu Sangen suddenly became excited. "Do you know how much our friends have bought?"

"In our communication groups alone, there are thousands of varieties!" Liu Sangen looked grim.

"Mr. Lu, thank you for your confession. We can't just let this matter go! We have been collecting for so many years, and this is the first time we have been fooled like this. We must make them pay the price!" Xie Jiao'e said.

After confirming that they were cheated, the two were in no mood to eat. They ended the celebration banquet hastily and left in a hurry with their things just after twelve o'clock.
