Chapter 1203: Rumors All Around
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
Bobby didn’t think that Li Zhichun would give up after he suffered a loss here. Since he had made up his mind to give up his business and evacuate from here, he would sell his own mine management rights to others.
Since he already knew the attitude of Yang Ming and General Kars, Bobby couldn’t sit back and do nothing. He had to do something. Bobby had to trouble Li Zhichun to make him fail in trading off the mines in his hands and to trap him here.
Thinking of this, Bobby smiled and picked up the phone in the room. Looking up the internal phone number from the phonebook in the room, he called an old friend. “Hello, Mike? This is Bobby…”
“Hey, Mr. Bobby, why did you call me suddenly?” Mike and Bobby had a good relationship. The distance between their previous mines was close, so Mike and Bobby were very familiar with each other. Although Mike’s business was not as big as Bobby’s, it did not affect the friendship between them.
“Old buddy, I am in the guest house. Are you free? Let’s have a drink together.” Bobby offered an invitation to Mike.
“Okay, no problem, buddy.” Mike naturally accepted Bobby’s invitation straightaway.
Hanging up the phone, Bobby smiled slightly. Mike was the famous “loudspeaker.” As long as he knew something, the next day, everyone around him would surely know.
Therefore, Bobby only needed to tell Li Zhichun’s matter to Mike. He believed that Mike would tell other people about it sooner or later.
Not long after, there was a knock on the door. Bobby said immediately, “Please come in.”
“Hey, old buddy, how are you!?” Mike casually walked in. “Your battle results today were very fruitful!”
“It’s okay.” Bobby said, “Your battle results are not bad, either!”
“That makes the two of us.” Mike smiled, “I can’t be as rich as you are, but the last gold mine is quite regretful. Someone else took half of the management rights.”
“Not regretful at all, hehe.” Bobby smiled.
“Come on, old buddy.” Mike said with a glare, “Do you know that it is not a good thing for two people to run the same mine together? There will definitely be differences of opinion at that time. Have you even thought about buying the management right from his hands?”
” Hehe , Li Zhichun did come to me, and it was only just before, but I refused him,” Bobby smiled and said.
” Ah ? You refused him?” Mike was stunned, and he looked at Bobby inexplicably. “No way? Have you made a mistake? You actually refused? This is such a good chance… Oh , I got it. It must be that his offer is too high; he wants to take the opportunity to extort you, so you had to refuse it?”
“It’s not the case.” Bobby shook his head. “Li Zhichun said that he can sell it to me at the original price.”
“Original price? Then you actually refused it?” Mike opened his eyes wide. “No way. Brother, have I gotten it wrong? Or, have you gone crazy? You actually refused such a good thing?”
“You didn’t get it wrong; my mind is still sane.” Bobby said, “But, ah , I dare not take over the business in Li Zhichun’s hands!”
“Don’t dare to take over?” Mike looked at Bobby in doubt. “What do you mean by not dare to take over? Are there any hidden stories in the middle?”
“Hidden stories arh… Hmm , this is too confidential. Old buddy, it’s not that I don’t want to tell you, but it won’t be good for you to know too much!” Bobby said, “All I can say is don’t get too close to Li Zhichun. Otherwise, you will be unlucky! I cannot afford to offend the person that wants to trouble him!”
” Ah ! Is there such a thing?” Mike became interested suddenly. “This is big news. Hey, man, you tell me. What is the secret in the middle?”
“I can’t reveal this secret.” Bobby waved his hand. “This kind of thing can’t be told casually. Old buddy, I can’t harm you. What I said before is not a secret, so it’s okay if you tell others. However, the matters behind these… you know, your mouth… Ha !”
“Yeah, that’s true.” Mike nodded. “In this case, I’d better not know about it. Even my old buddy, if you can’t afford to offend, I can’t afford to offend…”
“It’s good that you understand!” Bobby nodded. “Come; let’s drink and stop talking about this!”
” Ai , this Li Zhichun is also unlucky!” Mike smiled. “Let’s stop talking and drink!”
As a result, that night, after Mike came out of Bobby’s room, he entered the room of several investors who were playing dice.
“Mike, why are you here? Do you want to play too? It looks like you drank some alcohol. Where did you go to have fun?” A guy named Larry greeted Mike.
“I just came out of Bobby’s room.” Mike said, “Hey, let me tell you some amazing news. Did you know? Li Zhichun actually went to Bobby to sell him his half of the mine’s management rights.”
“What’s so amazing about that?” Larry said disapprovingly. “If two people work together, there will not be good results. It is better to sell to each other. If I were Li Zhichun, I would do the same.”
“The amazing part is not this. Oi, buddy, let me finish!” Mike waved his hand and continued, “The amazing news is that Bobby actually rejected Li Zhichun’s proposal; he rejected it!”
“The selling price is too high; it is normal to refuse. Is there anything weird about this?” Larry continued.
“Hey, can you let me finish?” Mike glanced at Larry. “The key point is that Li Zhichun said that he would transfer the mine to Bobby at the original price, but Bobby did not accept it.”
” Oh ? No way, right?!” The people present finally made an exclamation listening to Mike’s words. This was really amazing. Yes, nothing could be more shocking than this news.
“I say, Mike, are you kidding me? This is not funny!” Larry obviously didn’t believe it. After all, this was a rare opportunity. Would Bobby actually refuse it? How was this possible?
Either Mike was lying, or else, there was a hidden story!
“Why would I kid you?” Mike waved his hand in dissatisfaction. “Don’t you know my character? Indeed, I love to gossip, but which of my stories have been fake?”
“This is also true!” Larry nodded. Looking back, Mike didn’t seem to have deceived anyone, so he said, “Are there any hidden stories in this matter?”
“There are, of course, hidden stories.” Mike said smugly, “It is said that Bobby had been warned by someone not to get too close with Li Zhichun, and not to meddle with Li Zhichun’s matter. Otherwise… ”
“Otherwise?” Larry asked, urgently.
“Otherwise… Bobby didn’t say it, but obviously, Bobby didn’t dare to deal with Li Zhichun. I don’t know which powerful character told him and had him be so careful!” said Mike.
“No way, right? Even Bobby is scared?” Larry was stunned. “A person that Bobby does not dare to provoke, who else dares to provoke?”
“That’s right. Ai, it seems that I have to stay away from Li Zhichun in the future, so as not to get into trouble,” said Mike.
“Yes, you are right. Fortunately, you told us about this. It seems that we have to stay away from Li Zhichun!” Larry nodded and spoke sincerely.
Everyone also agreed. So, by the next morning, the news had spread. Li Zhichun’s rumors that he had offended strong forces had spread through the entire guest house. The person that even Bobby could not afford to offend, they naturally could not offend either.
Li Zhichun certainly did not know. No one in the entire guest house now dared to get close to him. Li Zhichun returned to his room with great disappointment.
“Father, what happened?” As Li Zhichun entered the house, Li Tianjia and Li Tianyu greeted him.
” Ai , don’t mention it.” Li Zhichun waved his hand in frustration. “Hell, Bobby actually refused! He refused my request; he did not want to buy the rights to operate from my hands.”
” Ah ? Did Bobby refuse you? He is not willing to buy the management rights in your hands?” Li Tianjia was somewhat inexplicable. “Why? Was the price you offered too high?”
“Too high?” Li Zhichun shook his head. “What is too high? I quoted him the original price, but he did not want it!”
“What? He refused even the original price? What does he want?” Li Tianjia was anxious when he heard it. “Could it be that he knew that we did not want to do a partnership? Is he trying to have us sell it at a loss?”
“He didn’t even want it at a price where we had a loss!” Li Zhichun said with hatred, “Bobby said that he does not want it even if we lose money; he is not interested in this gold mine.”
“Then if we don’t sell it to him, we can sell it to others!” Li Tianjia said, “I don’t believe that we can’t find other buyers besides him!”
“Yes, I will contact other people again!” Li Zhichun nodded. “Even if he wants to buy, I won’t sell it to him. It’s not that the mine in our hands can’t be sold!”
As Li Zhichun thought of this, his original gloomy mood got better. He planned to contact other people tomorrow morning.
However, what he didn’t know was that in the guest house, there had been many rumors… There were different versions… Some even said that Li Zhichun was a liar, attempting to deceive Bobby, but then he was rejected as a result…
Of course, this was just one of the versions. There were many different versions. Li Zhichun naturally did not think of this. If he knew it, who is sure what reaction he would have? Would he cry or laugh?
