Beauty and the Bodyguard

"I came here to discuss business, so I walked around on the way. Actually, I'm not here for traveling." Lin Yi said.

"I see. However, there's really nothing to recommend you to go to. At most, you can walk around the area and see the local customs." The lady boss said with some regret.

"By the way, what's that red building over there for?" "Cars coming and going early in the morning?" Lin Yi asked casually.

"Oh, you're talking about the conch group!" "That's the biggest trading company in this town, covering almost all the trading industries in the town. The raw materials of our small shops are all supplied by the conch group!" It's also the largest import and export company in this area, so there are people delivering goods and discussing business all night long. "

"So that's how it is." Lin Yi understood, but he was still a little confused. It seemed that the conch group was a local company with no shady interests on the surface. They hid it well, doing civilian trade.

However, Lin Yi didn't believe that the conch group didn't have any illegal businesses. Perhaps it was just a cover-the more they were at the headquarters, the more careful they had to be. It'd be suspicious if a large group didn't have any legal business at all!

And this kind of import and export trade was just right for money laundering. On the delivery side, as long as they were also their own people, they would quote a lower price. One loss, one profit, which saved a lot of trouble.

However, this made it very difficult for Lin Yi to investigate the building. There were people coming and going in the company, and Lin Yi couldn't sneak in. He had to pretend to be a business person, but it would be hard for him to get into the core office area like the general manager's office!

In order to prevent these proper business people from entering those areas by mistake, there would be a lot of security guards patrolling. After all, these things couldn't be shown to these people, so if Lin Yi wanted to go to the key areas, he had to think of a way!

Lin Yi thought that he could finish it in one day, but it seemed like he'd have to spend some effort now.

"What, young man? do you want to do business with the conch group?" The lady owner saw the anticipation in Lin Yi's eyes and asked casually. In fact, Lin Yi's eyes were all fake, he couldn't really show his happiness and anger on his face.

"Yeah, to be honest, I'm also in the trading business. My partner actually takes the goods from the conch group. If I take the goods from him, I'll make less money, so ..." Lin Yi said, pretending to be embarrassed.

"Hehe, I knew it. How could you not know about the conch group? So you're here to use your connections. " The lady boss didn't think much of it-she thought that she'd exposed Lin Yi's Secret. She only smiled,"Actually, the starting point of the conch Group's business is very low. If you have money, you can go and negotiate with them. Take our restaurants for example. Each of us doesn't need a lot of goods, but if we work together, we can be considered a big customer. We can still get goods from the conch group directly!"

"Oh? Don't you need someone to help introduce you?" Lin Yi asked, surprised.

"No need." The lady boss waved her hand and said,"young man, you can just go there directly. There's a reception area at the entrance of their company. State your purpose of visit and he will introduce you to the relevant person-in-charge."

"Is that so? Thank you very much, I'll go take a look now!" Lin Yi smiled politely after hearing the lady's words.

"It's not a big deal. Go, young man!" The lady boss said indifferently.

Lin Yi paid for the meal and walked out of the restaurant, heading towards the conch group. As expected, there was a reception area below the building, and there were many businessmen consulting with each other. Lin Yi was greeted as soon as he entered.

"Boss, what business do you want to do?" A service staff asked politely.

"Seafood." Lin Yi said. He'd only thought of it when he saw the trucks transporting seafood-it seemed like aquatic products were one of the conch group's main businesses.

"How should I address you, Sir?" The waiter nodded and asked.

"My surname is Yi, my name is Yi Ling." Lin Yi said.

"Oh, sure, Mr. Yi." The staff didn't care too much about Lin Yi's name, only doing the registration."Mr. Yi, how much do you want each month?"

"Around 30 million euros." Lin Yi said.

Lin Yi's price wasn't a lot, but it was definitely not a small amount. The waiter's eyes lit up! They were all the lowest-level employees and did not know the company's real background at all. However, their manager had already informed these people that if they wanted a large volume of customers, the price could be appropriately discounted as long as their monthly cash flow reached a certain amount.

Of course, these service staff seemed to be making small profits but quick turnover, but the company's purpose was very simple, which was to launder money. The more cash they inhaled, the better it was for them to operate more conveniently.

"Sir, for a customer of your level, you can meet the account Manager directly!" The staff quickly gave Lin Yi a bill and said,"Now, go to the account manager's office on the second floor and find manager Crick. He will be your business manager in the future."

"Alright, thank you." Lin Yi nodded, took the list, and left the room! Up until now, everything was going smoothly, and Lin Yi had passed the first obstacle. The next step was how to get the customer Manager to bring him to the General Manager!

However, thinking about it, it was a bit difficult. For money laundering, the business manager level was probably the top. At most, one could see the head of the business department. As for the General Manager, it was almost impossible!

However, Lin Yi could only take it one step at a time. After all, everyone knew how to brag. Lin Yi would draw out a few big plans first and see if the other party would take the bait.

Lin Yi stood in front of the manager's door and pondered for a moment before pushing the door open. A man with a crew cut came up to him immediately, smiling, Sir, my name is Crick. Are you looking for me?"

"Yes, I am Yi Ling, the manager of the Buffon family's hotel procurement department. I came here this time to prepare for business cooperation with your company. The hotel near the Buffon family is planning to change to a water product supplier, so someone recommended the conch group to me." The Buffon family that Lin Yi was talking about was a huge arms dealer family in Europe. They had many other businesses under them, and the hotel industry was one of them! (To be continued.)
