City's Best Divine Doctor-Chapter 1792 - 1752: Plans for Cooperation

The two bodyguards had been following Boss Yang for many years, often dealing with those Myanmar people. They knew very well what kind of nature those people had.

However, Ye Qiu was unconcerned. Doing business meant greed, but the real trouble was when you didn’t stick to the contract while being greedy.

When Wu Mao came out of the room, it turned out that he felt unwell and went back to take some medicine.

"Boss Wu, are you feeling unwell? Is it asthma?"

Ye Qiu said directly.

Ye Qiu had treated asthma before. In Traditional Chinese Medicine, asthma and wheezing are treated separately.

However, in Western medicine, they are classified as one disease.

"Yes, it’s asthma, hereditary. It’s uncomfortable when I smoke, and it’s also uncomfortable when I don’t." Ye Qiu noticed the yellowish teeth and fingernails, indicating frequent contact with stones, tobacco, alcohol, and even local opium.

Asthma was mostly uncomfortable during attacks, unable to cough or breathe properly. After Wu Mao drank the medicine and then some tea, he felt much better.

Boss Yang’s two bodyguards looked at the other’s appearance and didn’t touch the cup again, feeling it was unclean.

"Sir, you just mentioned needing a large import of raw jadeite stones. We can cooperate, even for billions or ten billion scale. I’m very familiar with the officers over there."

With those ordinary raw stones, a dozen pieces a pound, the profit is still divided in half, as these jadeite stones here aren’t very valuable. Many are even thrown away as waste because they are discarded after mining. The boss only thinks it’s a waste, so they re-sell them.

Actually, this whole gambling on stones involves finding jadeite and jade within discarded waste. Any stones with substantial jade content have long been picked out.

"Of course, that’s fine. I might need a lot, and if we can negotiate the lowest price, everyone benefits."

Wu Mao agreed.

Business here required transporting to Ruili first, and then to other places. But in Ruili, Huaxia people definitely had a monopoly, leaving no chance for these Myanmar locals.

As Ye Qiu prepared to leave, he clearly intended to check out other stores.

When Wu Mao personally escorted Ye Qiu out, Ye Qiu said, "Of course, if we could meet that officer, it would be best."

"I’m afraid that’s not possible."

In essence, the other party could only act as an agent, earning money for the senior officer. If Ye Qiu directly met the senior officer and then didn’t cooperate, what would become of him?

"That’s fine. I’ll take a look first and find you later."

After obtaining the business card, Ye Qiu left the jade store to visit other similar stores. Actually, the situation was generally the same; these people likely all acted as agents selling jadeite stones for those warlords, including raw stones.

In Myanmar, even in the Golden Triangle, resources were scarce. Previously relying on drugs, with global crackdowns, drug availability was less. They now rely on raw materials like jadeite, jade, and mahogany for sales, which they sell across the border to the major Huaxia bosses, who then make money to buy weapons and maintain stability.

The situation here was almost the same everywhere.

Without those raw jadeite stones or mahogany, one could only rely on the casino to make money. From Yang Guang’s two bodyguards, Ye Qiu learned there were many casinos run by Chinese people. However, they also earned money from domestic bosses, as the locals had no money.

The local military taxed these casinos.

Although Ye Qiu didn’t visit, the business model here was basically like this.

"They fight wars here annually, several times a year. It’s just that it doesn’t get much media coverage domestically." Before Ye Qiu arrived, he was indeed unaware of the situation here.

He never thought making money here could be so easy, especially with his resources and money.

Of course, for an ordinary person coming here, the likelihood of being deceived was very high.

At the next jade artifact store, Ye Qiu asked about the prices of rough jadeite stones, and they were generally similar, with not much difference. The cheaper ones were over twenty bucks a pound, more expensive ones fifty to sixty a pound.

So why don’t people from Ruili come here to play?

The key issue is that money comes and goes with difficulty, especially when there’s a lot of money involved.

Ye Qiu knew that even if he won a lot of jadeite stones here, bringing them back would be difficult, so he had only one option: to sell to locals.

However, selling to local merchants would surely yield less profit than selling to those bosses.

Nonetheless, Ye Qiu intended to sell directly and immediately cash out.

After all, making money here was so easy; Ye Qiu wouldn’t come for nothing!

After wandering around the Jade City in Muse, nearing lunchtime, Ye Qiu was ready to eat here. When he returned to find Wu Mao, Wu Mao wanted to invite him for a meal.

"Boss Wu, I can actually help you cure your disease easily."

"You can cure my illness?" Wu Mao asked incredulously.

"Yes, I’m a doctor by profession, but I’m just swinging by this time to have a look around."

When they arrived at the largest hotel in Muse, as the four sat down inside, Ye Qiu noticed that money really did make a difference here, allowing one to do as they pleased. Various wild animals were available and could be eaten without anyone checking.

However, Ye Qiu didn’t eat those wild animals; he wasn’t interested in them. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

He just asked for authentic Sichuan cuisine to be prepared.

"Boss Ye, how did it look after checking out the stores?"

"Oh, they’re all about the same. But I want to play some stone gambling, the kind where you see through a window. I’ll sell whatever I win directly to the store. What do you think?"

"It’s possible, but gambling on stones is very risky, even with windows."

"I have billions in cash right now; I’m not afraid of losing some money!"

Billions in cash?

Wu Mao was somewhat in disbelief.

This young man was truly wealthy, likely a second generation of rich families from back home.

After the four finished their meal and Ye Qiu and Wu Mao returned to his store, when Ye Qiu easily cured his asthma, Wu Mao was still in disbelief at how this young man did it; at any rate, the discomfort from asthma disappeared.

"Boss Ye, what kind of medical skills do you possess that they’re so effective?" Wu Mao asked incredulously.

"Traditional Chinese Medicine. I’m here this time to treat the twin daughters of Boss Yang Guang across the border."

Yang Guang was the richest man in Ruili, famous even in Myanmar, not to mention Muse. No wonder Wu Mao thought the license plate on Ye Qiu’s car looked familiar.
