"Ah Hsuan?!" Ye Wen raised his head and saw the smiling young man standing in front of him. He let down his guard and didn't mind Ye Xuan's attack just now. He asked with a smile, "Why are you here too?"
"Brother Wen, Mr Ye is staying in our shop temporarily. You guys … know each other?" Martial Addict Lin looked at Ye Xuan in shock. Ever since he had known Ye Xuan for so many years, this was the first time he had seen someone push Ye Wen back when they were fighting.
"I'm having my morning tea. Brother Wen, what are you …?" Ye Xuan stood at the side and asked even though he already knew the answer.
"Oh, I'm here to look for a friend!" After saying that, Ye Wen looked around and frowned slightly. Although he had only exchanged one blow with Ye Xuan, many people were looking at him now. Ye Wen, who had always liked to keep a low profile, didn't like it. He asked Martial Addict Lin, "Is Brother Quan here?"
"He's waiting for you upstairs!" Martial Addict Lin smiled and pointed upstairs.
"Let's go, Ah Hsuan. I'll introduce you to my friend!" Ye Wen didn't want to stay any longer. He patted Ye Xuan's shoulder and walked upstairs.
Ye Xuan smiled and followed Ye Wen upstairs.
"Ah Quan, you've been waiting for a long time, right?" Walking upstairs, Ye Wen led Ye Xuan into a private room. The door was open, and Ye Wen directly lifted the bead curtain and walked in. He saw a middle-aged man in a blue suit with wax on his hair standing behind the table, eating.
"You're always late!" Zhou Qing Quan was a little indifferent, or rather, he was used to it. He grumbled softly. When he saw Ye Xuan walking in, he said, "This is …?"
"Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot to introduce. This is Ye Xuan, a brother that I recently got to know. This is my good friend, Zhou Qing Quan!" Ye Wen introduced the two of them.
"Hello, Mr Ye!" Zhou Qing Quan saw Ye Wen's introduction and immediately stood up to extend his hand.
Ye Xuan took a step forward and shook hands with Zhou Qing Quan. He smiled and said, "Hello, Brother Quan. Don't stand on ceremony. Just call me Ah Hsuan like Brother Wen does!"
"Don't stand on ceremony. Come, Ah Quan, Ah Hsuan, both of you, sit!" Ye Wen greeted them.
"Both. Ah Quan, Quan, Ah Hsuan and Ye, Quan. Quan, Quan, Ye. Quan, Ye Quan, Quan, Ye. Quan, Ye, Quan, you. Both, Ah.
Quan looked Ye Wen and Xuan, Ye Xuan and Ye, and as, as Wen. as, Xuan, as, as, they were.
"No. However, if Ah Hsuan is my relative, that's not bad. Maybe one day, our Ye family will have a Martial Arts Grandmaster." Ye Wen smiled and waved his hand. He also praised Ye Xuan. He was really optimistic about Ye Xuan's future. Ye Xuan's martial arts cultivation was so fast at such a young age. His future was really limitless.
"Oh!" Zhou Qing Quan looked at Ye Xuan in surprise when he heard Ye Wen say that. He was very clear about Ye Wen's martial arts and character. He didn't expect that he would praise someone like that.
"Brother Wen, you're overpraising me!" Hearing Ye Wen say that, Ye Xuan hurriedly waved his hand. What a joke. The real Grandmaster is you, okay?
"Hehe!" Seeing Ye Xuan waving his hand, Ye Wen didn't continue. He took a sip of tea and turned to Zhou Qing Quan. "This tea is quite fragrant. Oh right, have you ordered anything to eat?"
Zhou Qing Quan looked at Ye Xuan, who was sitting beside Ye Wen, and suddenly said, "I have something to discuss with you!"
"Eat first, then we'll talk!" Ye Wen didn't know what Zhou Qing Quan wanted to say. However, he had just invited Ye Xuan to take a seat. He couldn't possibly chase him away now.
Ye Xuan naturally saw Zhou Qing Quan's gaze. He was wondering if he should leave, even though he already knew that Zhou Qing Quan was looking for Ye Wen because he wanted to cooperate with Ye Wen to open a cotton factory.
"Come, come, come. It's freshly made. Try it, try it …" At this moment, Martial Fanatic Lin walked in with some hot tea and pastries.
Martial Fanatic Lin put down the tea and looked at Ye Xuan discreetly. He asked Ye Wen, "Brother Wen, I heard from them that Mr Ye was sparring with Master Liao at your house. He even defeated him very quickly. Is that true?"
Ye Wen, who was drinking tea, paused and frowned. He looked at Ye Xuan suspiciously. Ye Xuan shook his head and said to Martial Fanatic Lin, "Who said that? Martial Fanatic Lin?"
Zhou Qing Quan stopped eating and looked at Ye Xuan.
"My brother said it. If you guys were sparring, you should have told me earlier. I still wanted to be his disciple!" Martial Fanatic Lin said.
"You worship every single master!" Zhou Qing Quan interrupted, exposing Martial Fanatic Lin's words and said with a smile.
"Brother Wen, Mr Ye, are you guys sparring behind closed doors?" Martial Fanatic Lin looked at Ye Wen and Ye Xuan curiously.
"Sigh!" Ye Wen sighed and didn't answer. He was a little unhappy. He had promised Master Liao that he wouldn't spread the news. Now that the news had spread, although it wasn't him and Ye Xuan who spread the news, he still broke his promise. Moreover, Master Liao ran a martial arts dojo. If this news was spread, it would affect his reputation.
Ye Xuan didn't say anything. He just sat at the side and drank his tea. In his opinion, Master Liao deserved it. If he didn't want to spar with someone, this wouldn't have happened.
If you don't want others to know, don't do it!
Zhou Qing Quan knew Ye Wen very well. Seeing Ye Wen's expression, he raised his head and said to Martial Fanatic Lin, "We have something to discuss. You can leave first!"
As the owner of a restaurant, it was impossible for Martial Addict Lin to not understand the ways of the world. Of course, he could tell that Zhou Qing Quan was chasing him away. He smiled and said, "Then I won't disturb your discussion behind closed doors!"
After that, he walked out with the tray and closed the door.
At this time, Ye Xuan suddenly stood up and said to Ye Wen, "Brother Wen, Brother Quan, since you have something to discuss, you can talk first. I'll come back later!"
"It's fine, it's fine. Ah Hsuan, hehe. I'm just being presumptuous and calling you that. Sit down and listen. It's not a big deal." Seeing Ye Xuan stand up, Zhou Qing Quan didn't know why he stopped him.
"Yeah, Ah Hsuan. Since Ah Quan said it's fine, you should sit down and listen too." Ye Wen also persuaded.
"Then I'll disturb you guys!" Ye Xuan went with the flow and sat down.
"It's fine!" Zhou Qing Quan and Ye Wen also sat down together.
"Come, eat. Don't stand on ceremony!" Zhou Qing Quan was indeed a successful businessman. In just a short while, he seemed to be very familiar with Ye Xuan and greeted him enthusiastically.
With this kind of character, it was no wonder that he could continue to operate the cotton factory when the Japanese occupied Foshan. It was indeed an amazing thing.
"Foshan is expensive now!" Zhou Qing Quan suddenly said after drinking a cup of tea.
Ye Wen picked up a shumai with his chopsticks and finished it. He said absent-mindedly, "So what?"
"That is to say, Foshan's economy is good. Everyone has money to spend," Zhou Qing Quan said while he didn't forget to pour tea for Ye Wen and Ye Xuan beside him.
"Is that so?" Ye Wen still didn't know what Zhou Qing Quan wanted to say.
"Think about it, clothing, food, housing, and transportation are the most important. In the future, the demand for clothing will be huge. So, I want to open a cotton factory to provide cotton materials to them." Zhou Qing Quan smiled. Seeing that Ye Wen didn't respond while eating the shumai, he said, "I want to share with you!"
Ye Wen was stunned. He swallowed the food in his mouth and said with a smile, "I'm not suitable for business."
"It's fine as long as I'm suitable!" Zhou Qing Quan replied with a smile.
"I don't lack money!" Ye Wen knew that Zhou Qing Quan only wanted to share with him because he saw that Tian Tian had nothing better to do. He wanted to take care of Tian Tian. The two of them had been friends for dozens of years, so there wasn't anything to hold back.
"Actually, Brother Wen, I think it's not a bad idea to do business with Brother Quan." Ye Xuan, who had been silent all this while, suddenly spoke up.
"Hmm?" Ye Wen and Zhou Qingquan both turned their heads to look at Ye Xuan.
Ye Xuan smiled. "Brother Wen, although I've only known Brother Quan for a short time, I feel that he's good at doing business. Although you don't lack money now, who knows what will happen in the future. Looking at the current situation in the country and abroad, England, America, and other capitalist countries are experiencing economic crises. To get out of the economic crisis, they will surely sell their goods to China at low prices. This might force the current government to cancel the silver standard policy, and there might even be a war in the future. Since you don't lack money, and Brother Quan's business is doing well, then treat it as an investment. Who knows, it might come in handy in the future. "
The reason why Ye Xuan said this to Ye Wen was because he thought of the hardships his family faced after his home was occupied by the Japanese.
