Chapter 336 - Statement

“Uncle Niu, Great Uncle Xiao, your daily workload is just this, help me transport the lobsters down, and then there’s just feeding them in the morning.”

After loading all the lobsters onto the truck, Chen Yang didn’t rush to deliver them to the old man.

Instead, he gave Uncle Niu and Great Uncle Xiao a few instructions.

This job was fairly simple, so it wasn’t necessary to explain too much—one run-through and the pair understood everything clearly.

“We’ve got it, Yang Zi, you can count on us, leave it to us,”

the two patted their chests and said.

“Alright, that’s it for today’s work.

You guys can go back, and just come back tomorrow to feed them.”

Chen Yang smiled.

“Okay then, Yang Zi, be safe on the road, we’ll be heading off first.”

The two nodded together and then left Chen Yang’s place.

Watching Uncle Niu and Great Uncle Xiao leave, Chen Yang got into the van and headed for the county city.

Half an hour later, Chen Yang arrived at Night Snack Street, then drove into an alley and came to the back door of the old man’s shop.

Today, it wasn’t just the old man waiting, but seven or eight other bosses.

Chen Yang had seen most of these bosses before, mostly those who were there when Wang De raised his prices that day.

“Old man, I’m here,”

Chen Yang called out as he hopped off the truck.

“You’re here?

How much did you bring today?”

The old man came up to Chen Yang immediately, all smiles.

“Didn’t you say five hundred catties?

That’s what I’ve brought.”

said Chen Yang.

With these words, the smile on the old man’s face grew even wider.

The other bosses behind him also looked pleased and nodded, thinking Chen Yang was really capable.

Otherwise, why would he bring five hundred catties of lobsters?

“Come on over, everyone, let me introduce you, this gentleman is Boss Chen…”

After laughing for a while, the old man immediately played the role of middleman and started introducing Chen Yang to the other big bosses.

At the same time, he also introduced the big bosses to Chen Yang.

After introductions were made all around and everyone was clear on who was who, trading began.

“About these lobsters, they are one hundred yuan per catty, but let me say upfront, I won’t be like Wang De, threatening you guys every which way or raising prices on a whim—you can be assured of that.”

Before the trading started, Chen Yang said these words.

The reason why the other big bosses didn’t want to work with Wang De and buy his lobsters was precisely because he was arrogant and domineering, relying on the quality of his lobsters to frequently raise prices and threaten others.

Chen Yang wanted to do business with sincerity, so he made such a commitment.

The other big bosses were originally drawn to Chen Yang for this very reason, and now that they heard his assurance, they felt even more at ease.

“With these words from Boss Chen, that’s enough for me.

From now on, I’ll only work with Boss Chen.”

“Boss Chen is straightforward; I’ll also exclusively work with you from now on.”

After Chen Yang staked his position, the big bosses also expressed their stances, and then everyone started to divvy up the lobsters.

They bought at one hundred yuan per catty.

Five hundred catties sold out in an instant, and Chen Yang earned fifty thousand yuan!

The big bosses left happily with their lobsters.

Chen Yang quickly tidied up the plastic crates and also drove away from there, busy going back to work on his medicine refining.

Right after Chen Yang left, Wang De, hauling his lobsters, arrived.

Upon entering the alley, he was shocked on the spot.

“What’s going on?

Where are all the people?”

No one was there to buy lobsters, and Wang De was stunned for a while, but then anger set in.

“Damn it!

Don’t they want to do business anymore?

How dare they make me wait like this?”

“Raise the price!

They must raise the price, or they won’t know how formidable I, Wang De, can be.”

Fuming, Wang De tossed his cigarette butt on the ground, then strode toward the back door of the Night Snack Street shops.

He visited all the major night snack shops one by one.

When entering the night snack shops, Wang De was arrogant and full of swagger.

But after talking with the shop owners, Wang De was stunned.

Today, all these shop owners got tough and outright refused his dragon prawns!

It was manageable when it was just one or two shops, but after he had visited all the night snack shops, he was completely taken aback.

“What the hell is going on?

Why does nobody want my dragon prawns anymore?

Do they all not want to do business?”

Standing next to his van, Wang De started to panic.

Selling dragon prawns was a very profitable business, and if he couldn’t continue, the loss would be tremendous!

In a flurry, Wang De lit a cigarette to calm himself down.

Standing next to the van, he calmly smoked and pondered for a while before he sensed that something was off.

“Usually, they’re all begging me for product, but now they’ve suddenly become so defiant.

Either they’ve colluded against me or they no longer need my dragon prawns.”

Wang De coldly analyzed and came up with two possibilities.

After giving it more careful thought, he was certain.

“They must have found a new source and don’t need my dragon prawns anymore!”

With this thought, Wang De clenched his teeth in anger!

“Damn it!

I’m going to see who’s stealing my business!”

Fury surged through him as he threw away the cigarette in his hand and drove the van out of the alley, parking beside the road near the night snack shops to watch.

However, Chen Yang had already left, so naturally, he couldn’t find him.

At this point, Chen Yang, who was on his way home, had already arrived back and started preparing his medicine attentively.

Chen Yang had worked until two in the morning the previous night, only then finishing all the medicine Li Han had given him.

That’s why Chen Yang got up a bit late today.

It was nine in the morning when he was awakened by the knocking of Yang Caiyun’s shop assistant.

After getting up to open the door for the shop assistant, Chen Yang washed his face, brushed his teeth, had breakfast, and then quickly loaded all the medicine he had prepared at home into his car to deliver to Li Han.

Knocking on the back kitchen door of Lintianxia, Chen Yang was greeted by Wang De, who immediately brightened up at the sight of him.

“Have you arrived?”

Said Wang De respectfully.

Chen Yang smiled and then tossed the keys of the van to Wang De.

“All the key medicines for the medicinal meals are in the car, just move them down.

When cooking, just mix them in,” he said.

Having said that, Chen Yang turned and entered the hall through the back door.

Wang De took the keys and began instructing his apprentices to get busy.

Chen Yang strolled leisurely into the hotel lobby, glancing around.

He noticed that Lintianxia’s hall looked different than usual today.

There were two large signs in the hall of Lintianxia today.

Chen Yang, curious, went over to have a look and saw that they were indeed the photos of the medicinal meals from the day before, complete with descriptions and various professional commercial embellishments.

“Well, I’ll be, that was quick.

It’s barely been a night, and they’ve already put up the signs,” Chen Yang exclaimed, then after taking a few more glances at the medicinal meal signs, he took the elevator to Li Han’s office.

In the office, Li Han was holding a meeting with the hotel’s leadership.

The office was filled with people.

As Chen Yang walked in, he immediately drew everyone’s attention, including Li Han’s.

Li Han had intended to pause the meeting to greet Chen Yang, but he gave her a gesture indicating there was no need, that he would wait on the side.

Li Han caught on with a smile and continued her meeting.

Chen Yang sit on the sofa, watching them hold the meeting.

Li Han was usually quite reserved, not talking much when they were playing together.

But when she was conducting a meeting for her staff, she was the epitome of a strong woman, an iron lady.

She chastised the male and female leaders of the hotel with such authority that they didn’t show the slightest bit of temper, all very respectful.
