Chapter 390 – A few Female Bandits!
Translator: Lonelytree
The peanuts that Xiao Lingyu sent to Li Yuanhang were plundered by a few female bandits. The only thing left was the two catties of boiled peanuts that he had hidden with great difficulty.
After the female bandits split the looted peanuts, they began to ask, “Special Assistant Li, where did you get these peanuts? They’re so delicious. Tell us where we can buy them next time.”
Li Yuanhang rolled his eyes when he saw a few female bandits eating peanuts casually in his office. He said, “These peanuts are special. You can’t buy them even if you want to.”
At this time, Secretary Lin suddenly thought of something and asked, “Special Assistant Li, are these peanuts from the same place as the peanut oil?” If they came from the same place, then the special taste made sense.
Special Assistant Li narrowed his eyes and said with a smile, “Well, Xiao Lin is still the smart one!”
At this moment, Secretary Dong was really curious and asked, “Then, Special Assistant Li, where did this peanut and peanut oil come from?” Speaking of the peanut oil, she regretted not buying more back then. The
price had been hyped up by the other big bosses. Initially, one catty of peanut oil only cost 1000 RMB, but later it became several ten thousand RMB per catty.
If they had bought the peanut oil when Special Assistant Li first opened his shop, then they could have made a lot of profit in price difference. The price difference was a lot. It was more than their monthly salary.
Secretary Lin was the only one who had the foresight. She bought a few catties when Li Yuanhang sold them for 1000 RMB per catty. So later, everyone could only see her eat the food happily every day.
Her husband would send her lunch every day. He used the special peanut oil. Whenever she opened her lunch box, the fragrance would fill up the office. The other female bandits eventually made their move.
Secretary Lin’s husband had to make a few more servings so that his wife wouldn’t come home hungry because her food was stolen. Well, that was an exaggeration. Since they were from the same bandit clan, after the
other bandits stole her food, they would compensate Secretary Lin with their best snacks. However, after tasting the peanut oil, nothing could grab her appetite anymore.
When the second batch of peanut oil arrived, Special Assistant Li sold them for 4000 RMB per catty. Many secretaries gritted their teeth and bought two catties each. They felt so regretful. Once upon a time, they
could buy the peanut oil at the lowest price, but they didn’t appreciate it.
After spending 8,000 RMB to buy two catty of peanut oil, they used it sparingly.
They couldn’t help but wonder what kind of peanut would produce such wonderful peanut oil. At the same time, they wondered if something was mixed into the oil. Of course, they didn’t dare to ask Li Yuanhang about
this question.
However, after finding the raw peanuts in Li Yuanhang’s office, they were certain that the oil was not tampered with. The raw peanuts did taste so good!
Hearing Secretary Dong’s curious question, Li Yuanhang stared at her for a while with his sharp eyes. Then, he asked with a faint smile, “Why? Do you want to go to the source to steal my business?”
Secretary Dong was speechless. She rolled her eyes and said, “I won’t dare.” This business was a highly lucrative one. Without certain status, one would be instantly targeted by others.
Secretary Dong continued, “I’m just curious. As for this business, it’s more appropriate for you to do it yourself!”
All the secretaries knew that it was not Li Yuanhang who was doing this business. The real mastermind was Gong Tianhao. In the business world, everyone knew that Li Yuanhang represented Gong Tianhao.
Li Yuanhang nodded. “It’s good that you know your place.”
Secretary Dong, “…” Of course I do!
“Then, Special Assistant Li, can you tell us where these peanuts came from?” Secretary Dong was really curious.
Special Assistant Li shook his head and said, “About that, I have to keep it a secret.”

“Oh!” The others immediately looked disappointed.
“If you still want to eat peanuts, you can come to my place to order! Peanuts are 200 per catty, fried peanuts are 300 per catty, and boiled peanuts are 250 per catty.”
Everyone, “…”
When they heard the price, they immediately stopped.
it was too expensive.
Li Yuanhang saw their expressions and asked with a smile, “Do you think it’s too expensive again?”
Everyone, “…” That was true.
“Tsk tsk…” Li Yuanhang said with a smile, “I’ve seen you girls ordering imported chestnuts that are more expensive. Why aren’t you willing to spend on these peanuts then?” Speaking up to this point, he paused for a
moment and then said in a somewhat mysterious manner, “Let me tell you. There isn’t much stock left of the peanuts. The boss doesn’t want to sell them anymore. They want to reserve some as gifts for their friends.”
For example, Xiao Lingyu had sent him 200 catties.
“Only 1000 to 2000 catties left?” Secretary Dong and the others were surprised. “But why didn’t the boss use all of them to extract oil? They can sell the peanut oil for tens of thousands per catty.”
Special Assistant Li rolled his eyes and said, “The oil is delicious, but it can only be used in cooking. But raw peanuts are different. They can be made into snacks. Alright, let’s cut the crap. If you want to order, hurry up.
Give me a number.”
Secretary Dong swallowed his saliva and asked, “Special Assistant Li, this is too expensive. Can you lower the price?”
“Have you forgotten the incident with the peanut oil?” Special Assistant Li said somewhat speechlessly, “Let me tell you, these peanuts will only become more and more expensive. If you continue to hesitate, you’ll
regret it later.”
Speaking up to this point, he looked at secretary Dong and asked with a smile, “Secretary Dong, I remember when I sold that peanut oil, you also thought that 1,000 RMB per catty was too expensive and were unwilling
to buy it.
“However, later, you spent 8000 RMB on buying two catties. Secretary Dong, you must be rich.”
Secretary Dong, who had been ridiculed, “…”
Everyone, “…” They all had the same thought as Secretary Dong.
“Alright, all of you can go back to work.” Special Assistant Li waved his hand and began to urge them on. Then, he said, “The president has given an order. All of you will have an increased workload.”
A few female bandits immediately let out miserable cries. “Ah? The president is too much of a bully.”
Little did they know that this was because they were taking the blame for their immediate boss..
