A single man checks into a couples' room; his life of ease and comfort begins.

The most popular clothing items in Northeast China include mink coats, sheepskin garments, and top-grain cowhide jackets.

If it's a mink coat, this is the wholesale market; if you buy it from a department store, it would cost tens of thousands of yuan.

Hao Qiangzhuang was also lucky to stumble upon his cousin and his wife, whom he hadn't seen for many years.

Although they are dishonest people, they will still try their best to please Hao Qiangzhuang for the sake of profit.

Before long, Liu Liangying returned with a boy of about ten years old. The boy was pulling a cart made from swivel wheels, fixed wheels, square tubes, sheet metal, and iron pipes, which was loaded with several bags.

The pockmarked man came over, grabbed Hao Qiangzhuang's hand, and said with a smile, "Brother! Your sister-in-law has prepared everything. It's all top-quality goods. If anyone else bought it, they would only get fakes."

These words served as a reminder to Hao Qiangzhuang. He glanced at Miss Iris, frowned, and said, "This isn't the land of beauties. Don't dress so provocatively. Hurry up and call me cousin and cousin's wife. Later, your cousin's wife will help you pick out some nice and suitable clothes."

Miss Elise blushed, lowered her head, and reluctantly greeted the pockmarked man with a "Hello, cousin," before turning to Liu Liangying and saying, "Hello, cousin's wife."

The pockmarked ghost nodded with a smug, unconcerned look, "Alright, alright, alright."

Liu Liangying walked over and took Miss Iris's hand, her face beaming with happiness. She glanced at Hao Qiangzhuang and said with a smile, "Sister-in-law, you're so beautiful, like a fairy descended from heaven."

Miss Elise couldn't resist the praise. Liu Liangying's few words made her feel incredibly happy, and she kept glancing at Hao Qiangzhuang.

After Miss Elise went with Liu Liangying to pick out pretty clothes, Zhang Mazi, with a sly grin, dragged Hao Qiangzhuang aside and said, "Qiangzhuang, I didn't expect that after not seeing you for several years, you really live up to your name, you've become strong."

Ma Zi Gui had only come to Shenzhen to work a few years ago, but Hao Qiang Zhuang hadn't seen him for over ten years.

Not only had he grown into an adult, but the pockmarked ghost in his memory had also changed; he was now sleazy, greasy, and had a somewhat disgusting appearance.

People back then valued family ties and emotions. Sometimes, if your own relatives looked down on you, they would give you the cold shoulder when you visited them, even during the Lunar New Year. In order to maintain the family ties with your parents, you still had to swallow your pride and go.

Therefore, sometimes, people cannot explain or articulate their thoughts.

Hao Qiangzhuang scratched his head and said with a smile, "Cousin has become more and more prosperous these past few years. I could tell you were a big boss at first glance."

The pockmarked man chuckled and said, "By the way, what country is your foreign wife from?"

Hao Qiangzhuang said, "Beautiful Chinese!"

The pockmarked man exclaimed in admiration, "Beautiful Chinese, truly beautiful!"

After exchanging compliments for a while, the pockmarked man couldn't help but ask, "Strong! What do you do for a living now?"

Hao Qiangzhuang glanced at Miss Iris and said with a smile, "I'm afraid you'll laugh at me, cousin, but I'm just a gigolo."

It was because of Hao Qiangzhuang's words that the pockmarked ghost harbored evil intentions and his gaze fell intently on Miss Iris, who was picking out new clothes with Liu Liangying not far away.

The pockmarked man's mind raced. He thought to himself, "This foreign girl must be a rich heiress. If I could snatch her from Hao Qiangzhuang, hehe..."

As Ma Zigui thought to himself, a wicked smile involuntarily crept onto his lips as he raised his left hand and touched his chin.

How could Hao Qiangzhuang not notice the ghostly appearance of the pockmarked ghost?

When I was a child, my family was poor and my parents were too honest, so they suffered a lot of cold treatment and saw the discriminatory looks from others.

As long as you don't harm me, I'll see through things but not say anything. This is Hao Qiangzhuang's bottom line and his way of dealing with people.

But if you harm me, then that's a different story.

Hao Qiang patted the pockmarked man on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Leaving aside Miss Iris's family, she has assets worth millions. If you like, cousin, I can give it to you."

Upon hearing this, the pockmarked man almost jumped up in excitement: "A million-dollar fortune?"

He suppressed his inner impulse, thinking that Hao Qiangzhuang couldn't possibly be that wealthy. Now he knew that he was completely dependent on the foreign woman in front of him.

"How could I possibly accept this?"

The pockmarked ghost really thought Hao Qiangzhuang was going to give Miss Iris to him. He could already imagine the glorious scene when he brought Miss Iris home.

In fact, Hao Qiangzhuang was using a strategy of retreat as a means of advancement. If he hadn't done this, and Ma Zigui had actually managed to win over Iris, Hao Qiangzhuang would have felt guilty. After all, Miss Iris was Qin Xianglan's sister, and she was just pretending to be his girlfriend so that he could save face and show off when he went back.

However, given the current course of events, it would be incredibly easy for Hao Qiangzhuang to win over Miss Iris.

Next, we'll have to see Hao Qiangzhuang's practical demonstration.

Hao Qiangzhuang put his arm around the pockmarked man's shoulder and said with a smile, "Cousin, Miss Ellis's parents are members of the American Mafia."

Of course, this was just something Hao Qiangzhuang made up to scare the pockmarked ghost.

The pockmarked man stared at Hao Qiangzhuang with a hint of disbelief and said, "Don't scare your cousin."

Hao Qiangzhuang continued, "Don't let my current glamorous appearance fool you. Being Miss Iris's boyfriend is a high-risk job. I'm her eleventh boyfriend this year."

It's only March now, and to Ma Zigui that she's had eleven boyfriends in three months sounds a bit exaggerated.

The pockmarked ghost chuckled and asked, "She changes boyfriends so frequently, aren't you at risk of being replaced at any moment?"

Hao Qiangzhuang said with a bitter expression, "It wasn't that I was replaced, it was that I was killed."

The pockmarked ghost had heard of the Mafia before. Some of his colleagues had come into contact with them, and there was indeed a Miss Ellis in the Mafia who would shoot and kill her boyfriend if she was not satisfied with him. This even made international news at the time.

Now, even the pockmarked ghost was somewhat skeptical. Recalling how Miss Ellis had attacked him without warning, the pockmarked ghost became a little scared.

The United States is now a world-dominating power, so we dare not provoke them, lest we end up with our heads separated from our bodies without even knowing why.

But when I saw Ellis, she was really open-minded, probably because she used to be an underwear model! She didn't even go into the fitting room when trying on clothes, she just took off her outer clothes and started changing right outside.

At this point, the pockmarked man's brain started to swell with blood, and a million thoughts raced through his mind, the most prominent being: "Damn it, even if I die, I'll sleep with this foreign devil!"
