Back to the 1970s: Building My Fortune Through Time Trading-Chapter 457: New Partnership

"Alright, forty it is."

Zhang Jun pushed two banknotes in front of them, "Paying half now, the other half after the job is done."

Alright then, these two bratty kids, selling out their big sister for forty bucks, just wait till they get home and see what happens.

Su Jianwu grabbed the money and stuffed it into Su Jianwen’s hand: "Fourth brother, you keep this money."

Just as he said it, he felt a chill down his back, looked around but saw nothing.

As the two were about to make their escape, they suddenly heard a thud and saw Su Xiaoxiao falling from the wall.

"Thir...Third Sister? Why are you here?"

Su Jianwu was startled.

Su Xiaoxiao: "..."

Damn it, she’d climbed up to the top of the wall to hear better, but her hand went numb and she fell straight down.

"Hi~"

She got up and awkwardly greeted the few people.

Zhang Jun squinted, this girl turned out to be the legendary Su Xiaoxiao, but she just looked like a half-grown kid—could she really be that capable?

"Well, sorry to interrupt, I’m here to pick up my two brothers, we’re leaving now."

Su Xiaoxiao grabbed one in each hand and was about to run, but suddenly two men appeared in front of her, one on each side, blocking her way completely.

"You’re Mr. Su, right? Since you’re here, don’t leave just yet."

Zhang Jun squinted his eyes at her and signaled to the two men blocking the way.

The two immediately got the message and gestured invitingly: "Mr. Su, please."

Curiosity really did kill the cat.

Su Xiaoxiao sighed inwardly, had she known she wouldn’t have climbed the wall to eavesdrop.

Now that she was on their turf, she’d have to follow their lead.

Zhang Jun sized up Su Xiaoxiao: "I heard Mr. Su has supply channels for mini sewing machines and electronic watches, are you interested in working with me?"

"Cooperation? How are we cooperating?"

Su Xiaoxiao pretended not to understand.

"Simple, you give me the supply channels, and I’ll pay you a one-time fee of two hundred bucks. How about it?"

Zhang Jun smiled broadly.

Su Xiaoxiao: "..."

This isn’t cooperation, he clearly wants to monopolize the sales channels.

Two hundred bucks to buy her off? Dream on!

"And if I say I can’t?"

No sooner had she spoken than Zhang Jun’s face turned cold, and he slammed his enamel mug on the table: "Mr. Su, I’m informing you, not negotiating with you!"

"If you three siblings want to walk out of here unharmed, you must do as I say."

Facing Zhang Jun’s eyes, fierce as a beast, Su Xiaoxiao sat down at the side of the table without fear: "Mr. Zhang, I don’t think you have the capital to negotiate with me, do you? After all, the supply channels are in my hands, and if you dare do something to us three siblings, you can forget about getting those channels."

"Then I’ll just kill all three of you."

Zhang Jun slammed the table and stood up in a flash, this brazen girl actually dared to confront him, was she tired of living?

But now is an age of rule of law, especially with severe punishments against crime.

So, Su Xiaoxiao wasn’t scared by his words.

"Go ahead then, even if all three of us die, you still won’t get the sales channels for the mini sewing machines and electronic watches..."

Before she finished speaking, a dagger appeared in Zhang Jun’s hand, pressing against her throat: "You damn girl, you dare threaten me? I wasn’t raised to be frightened! Don’t you believe I’ll kill you right now."

Su Xiaoxiao was startled by the dagger that came so close, knowing Zhang Jun was just bluffing, but she couldn’t help feeling a bit scared.

She forced herself to appear calm and opened her mouth: "Mr. Zhang, how about we each take a step back, you deal with me directly for the goods, and I’ll give you the best price."

"Besides, even if I tell you the sales channels, it’s useless. The contact person on the other side only recognizes me, and even if you go, you might not be able to get the goods."

"I’ve said what I have to say, if you still disagree, go ahead and make your move."

Before Zhang Jun could agree, the little henchman next to him seemed eager to try, secretly signaling to Zhang Jun.

"Boss, it’s better to earn something than nothing. Plus, killing is illegal. We’re just in it to make more money, not to risk our own necks."

"Yeah, right, boss, this is okay too. These items bring heavy profits, we can’t miss this opportunity to earn big."

"Boss, money, this is all about money, cooperation breeds money, why not follow Mr. Su’s suggestion..."

Zhang Jun pondered with a sullen face for a moment, and then gritted his teeth: "Fine, I agree."

The brothers were right, mutual destruction would benefit no one, earning some money was better than none.

Su Xiaoxiao looked over: "Mr. Zhang, now that we’re partners, shouldn’t you let my two brothers go?"

Hearing this, Zhang Jun signaled to the little sidekick, who immediately released them, and his attitude became extremely courteous.

"In addition to the mini electric sewing machines and electronic watches, I also have quartz wall clocks available, ensuring you the lowest price."

Su Xiaoxiao suggested.

Since they were going to work together, she had to show her capability.

Quartz wall clocks? Isn’t this the newly launched, hard-to-find wall clock? Who would have thought this girl would have them too, lucky he made the right choice earlier, otherwise, he’d miss this golden opportunity.

At this point Zhang Jun looked at Su Xiaoxiao almost as if she were his God of Wealth.

He kicked the subordinate next to him: "What are you standing there for? Quickly brew tea for Mr. Su, bring out that jar of West Lake premium Longjing."

The little sidekick couldn’t help but click his tongue, this premium West Lake Longjing was something the boss didn’t even drink himself, and now it was brought out for this Mr. Su, this lass was something special.

Soon, a tea set was brought to the table, and Zhang Jun personally poured a cup for Su Xiaoxiao.

The tea aroma wafted through the air, and after a sip, the fragrance lingered, this tea was clearly not cheap.

"Mr. Su, how’s the tea?"

Zhang Jun asked with a broad smile.

"Good tea!"

Unfortunately, Su Xiaoxiao had no knowledge of tea, and despite racking her brain, all she could come up with was this single sentence.

She couldn’t help it, she only categorized tea as either expensive or cheap.

"Mr. Su, a good eye."

Zhang Jun was going all out to please the God of Wealth, going so far as to compliment avidly.

Looking at his exaggerated expression, Su Xiaoxiao thought, buddy, if you really can’t find anything worth praising, just say I’m a good person.

Their cooperation went rather smoothly, they agreed on the supply price and delivery time, and Zhang Jun even kept the three for a meal, and then courteously sent Su Xiaoxiao and her two brothers out.

"Alright, you all can head back now, no need to see us off any further."

It was already past seven in the evening when they returned home, seeing the pitch-dark house, they tiptoed into the main room, and as soon as they entered, they were startled by a figure sitting in the darkness.
