Chapter 64
The Bet

Li Ming Yi immediately straightened his expression: "Two and a half months, I can make the walnut drink pile up like mountains."

Su Ping Nan gave Li Ming Yi a meaningful look and nodded.

Leaving the office, Li Ming Yi wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. Su Ping Nan's aura was getting stronger. Just because of that last glance, Li Ming Yi, already fifty years old, was actually scared into a cold sweat.

Su Ping Nan felt a little tired. He was now in control of all the major directions. After taking a sip of tea, he felt he should go see Lin Fang.

Lin Fang, the only person Su Ping Nan had met once but felt compelled to give a gold watch to, was a sales genius.

Su Ping Nan knew this person. In the future, Lin Fang's company, Tian Nan's rather famous health product Green Energy, would be very successful. When Lin Fang came with his sales team, he asked for very harsh conditions, but Su Ping Nan still agreed without hesitation.

Lin Fang was short, with a round face. He had a comical look when he smiled. As soon as he entered, he saw Su Ping Nan carefully reading his team's information.

"Mr. Su, you're working hard."

Lin Fang greeted him politely, sat down straight on the sofa, and looked straight ahead.

"You're very good, very good." Su Ping Nan rarely stood up, personally pouring Lin Fang a cup of coffee.

"I remember you like coffee, not tea. You shouldn't have gotten that wrong."

Lin Fang's shocked expression flashed across his face. He nodded, bowed and said thank you.

"I looked into why you left Tian Bao Pharmaceutical Company. You lost a lot, didn't you?"

Su Ping Nan leaned back in his chair, his face hidden in the swirling smoke, and said faintly.

Lin Fang didn't answer immediately. He took a sip of coffee before slowly speaking: "It was just an internal struggle. Losing is losing. Those words about corruption, Mr. Su, you are a genius, I'm sure you wouldn't take those words to heart."

Su Ping Nan's eyes were like wolves, his tone steady: "The Jinxiu Arcade is a hot seller. You played a key role. I gave you a lot, but you want too much."

Lin Fang remained silent. They were both smart people, there was no need to say things so clearly.

"You have the ability, the skill, and a team that is loyal to you. Perhaps here is just a temporary place for you." Su Ping Nan continued.

"Yes, Mr. Su, you've been generous to us. It's just that Lin Fang is unwilling to let go." Lin Fang felt overwhelmed by Su Ping Nan's increasingly powerful aura and answered honestly.

"Tian Bao has deep roots. You can't compete with them. Why don't you sincerely help me?" Su Ping Nan offered an olive branch.

The look of struggle in Lin Fang's eyes was obvious. The person in front of him was young, but he could be considered a talented and ambitious man with an iron will. He was truly a rare individual, but Lin Fang had been forced out of Tian Bao after ten years. He just couldn't swallow that feeling of resentment.

Seeing the resentment in Lin Fang's eyes, Su Ping Nan smiled: "You are very good, you can do very well, but you can't do your best."

"Why?"

Lin Fang didn't underestimate Su Ping Nan in the slightest. Instead, he felt extraordinary admiration and couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Ruthlessness."

Su Ping Nan lit a cigarette, exhaled a thick cloud of smoke, and said leisurely.

"Your several key mistakes at Tian Bao were all due to hesitation. You couldn't bring yourself to do it."

Lin Fang was dejected and didn't know what to say for a moment.

"What about you? What would you do?" After a moment of silence, Lin Fang asked.

"What do you think? I have a nickname, I wonder if you've heard it?" Su Ping Nan didn't answer directly.

Lin Fang looked at Su Ping Nan's expressionless face and sighed. Of course he knew Su Ping Nan's nickname. How could someone who's been around in the underworld not know about their boss?

"Your confidence comes from your team, that's your capital. Let's make a bet, how about that?" Su Ping Nan said with a smile.

"What's the bet?" Lin Fang asked.

"I have a drink that I'm going to launch. I don't need anyone from your team. I just need half a year and I'll make it into the top five nationwide. Do you want to bet?"

"What's the wager?" Lin Fang looked at Su Ping Nan.

"If I win, you will help me wholeheartedly, break up your team, and join Jinxiu."

"If you lose, I'll give you 20 million to enter the pharmaceutical industry and start over."

"Alright."

Lin Fang didn't put up any resistance. He respected Su Ping Nan. If he lost, he would willingly let go of his resentment and join him. Their hands clasped firmly, and then they smiled at each other.

After everything was arranged, it was already dark.

Du Jiu walked in, expressionless: "When do I go to Xiangnan?"

Su Ping Nan threw a cigarette over: "If you go, it could be a fight to the death."

Du Jiu grinned: "I want to try."

Su Ping Nan's eyes were fierce: "The underworld is gone. They don't understand. You don't understand either."

He patted Du Jiu on the shoulder, who looked bewildered: "Money, is the weapon that kills silently."
