My bathroom connects to another world

Chapter 15: Chapter 15: Da Manjin Comes Knocking



Starting a company was very simple; all it took was money. And now, Zhao Guang, who lacked everything except money, found it straightforward.

The process went very smoothly, and the company called "I am Human" was officially on the agenda. Upon seeing the name "I am Human," even though Zhao Guang was the client, others couldn't help but look at him as if he were a fool.

Where did this silly second-generation rich kid come from to choose such a bizarre name?

But it really wasn't Zhao Guang's fault; he originally wanted to name it "Earth People," but that name was already taken.

Later, Zhao Guang thought about using "Otherworldly People," but that too was taken. He settled on "I am Human" instead—after all, at least he wasn't a Beastman, right? It was just a shell company; as long as he knew what it meant, that was enough.

Just as he stepped outside, a petite urban woman with yellow glasses and a very fashionable and beautiful outfit approached him, looking nothing like his "Hacker Empire" attire.

Zhao Guang gave her an appreciative glance and then prepared to leave; she wasn't his type.

"Are you Mr. Li?"

Zhao Guang looked to the left and then to the right, "Are you calling me?"

"It seems you are not Mr. Li. Hello, I am Guo Siyu, the general manager of Da Manjin. May I take a bit of your time?"

Da Manjin? What on earth is that? It couldn't be something Manager Wang cooked up. The only people who would make an effort to find him were those involved with gold.

However, the gold was already sold, and the cash was in his bank card, safe from robbery.

"Then, let's go over there," Zhao Guang looked around before choosing the busiest stall, Lanzhou Noodles.

Guo Siyu had a face of disbelief. Was this a place to talk business? That store really didn't match her outfit either.

"Sir, no joking please; I'll choose the place. How about the cafe over there?"

Zhao Guang looked that way and sure enough, he could see it, an excellent location. Key was that it was bustling, with people coming and going, so there was no need to worry about trouble.

If it really came to a fight—well, surely he couldn't lose to a woman.

"Alright, let's go there."

The two entered the cafe one after the other, attracting everyone's attention. Most of it was directed at Zhao Guang, because his outfit was truly bizarre, even reaching the level of a mixed-style mess.

Zhao Guang couldn't see it himself, but to those with a sense of style, he looked like he'd run straight out of a backwater.

Closing the doors to the partition finally shielded them from those stares.

"I'll address you as Mr. Li for now. Our Da Manjin is a newly established gold store, and we urgently need a batch of gold. I heard that you sold a batch to Golden Mansion at a price of 208 per unit."

So, she was here to buy gold; that explained it. But this news traveled fast. With such intelligence capabilities, why run a gold shop when she could be a spy?

At that moment, Zhao Guang put on a smile, "Hello, indeed we sold a batch, but that was just to test the waters."

He continued the ruse. After all, he was just an intermediary, and they found the right person by coming to him.

"So, could you sell us a batch? We need a large quantity, and I can offer you a price of 302 per unit."

Guo Siyu kept talking before Zhao Guang could reply, "Actually, at this price, we're not making any money, and you shouldn't expect a higher price. Our store is new, and we need a batch of gold to set up a display."

Understood. Zhao Guang always found it strange that she offered to raise the price by forty yuan, which seemed a bit excessive.

When he had negotiated with Manager Wang before, let alone forty yuan, even forty cents would have been too much to hope for.

"Alright, but we don't have any stock right now, so it'll take a few days."

Guo Siyu flashed a sweet smile, "Then it's a deal, Mr. Li. Aren't you going to tell me your real surname?" As she spoke, Guo Siyu took off her glasses, revealing a face with delicate makeup.

However, Zhao Guang didn't take off his glasses, and instead, he smiled and said, "It's not important; my surname is Ma."

"Then, I'm pleased to be in business with you, Mr. Ma," Guo Siyu stressed the surname Ma heavily.

"Here's my business card; just call this number if you have the goods,"

Guo Siyu stood up to pay the bill and leave, leaving Zhao Guang in deep thought. He had initially thought that gold would not be so easy to handle, especially in large quantities, but it seemed now he might have misunderstood.

Gold is still gold, valuable no matter what; it's all about the channels.

He didn't have them, but here was one delivered right to his door.

Zhao Guang downed the cup of coffee in one gulp, not wanting to waste it, and then stood up to leave the cafe. It had to be said, communicating with a beautiful woman was indeed a pleasant experience.

Only when thinking about the Beastman side, with such a large camp and not a single beast-eared maiden, was he disappointed.

Although he was now wealthy, he couldn't just sit back and consume his resources without replenishing them; it was time to buy some equipment.

The work clothes he was wearing were just transitional; he needed to invest in professional protective gear. As for the price, what did that matter? He had plenty of money now.

He logged onto a website and went on a shopping spree, buying knives, Crossbow Arrows, and all sorts of other items.

"They didn't sharpen the arrowheads, but never mind, I'll sharpen them myself. Let's add some stun guns and pepper-spray too; a boy has to take care of himself when he's out and about—that's always right,"

As he walked along, lost in thought, Zhao Guang looked up to find himself outside a car dealership unknowingly.

"I should buy a vehicle, otherwise transportation will be a hassle."

As Zhao Guang walked in, looking here and there, he didn't find anything suitable.

"Sir, is there something specific you need? I can show you some cars."

A suggestive-looking woman approached and asked Zhao Guang.

Zhao Guang replied, "I want to buy a vehicle suitable for hauling, the more it can carry, the better." The smile on the beauty's face stiffened instantly—buying a cargo vehicle in a 4S dealership, was he trying to smash their brand?

"If you need a vehicle for carrying goods, I suggest you check the next street over; you'll find what you need there."

"Those small trucks don't meet my standards, they're too ugly, and they won't fit in my residential area,"

"In that case, how about this one? It's an extended, widened version. The configuration is..."

Before she could continue, Zhao Guang pointed at the vehicle and interrupted her, "That's the one, let's sign the contract. Full payment, and make it quick." She seemed not to have recovered from the shock; was it really a deal already?

"You could consider financing. It would be more beneficial,"

"I don't have much time; let's get on with it now,"

The bewildered beauty muttered, "Okay, okay..." How was she to react when none of her tactics had a chance to be deployed?
