32: Chapter 32: So It’s You 32: Chapter 32: So It’s You The next day, bright and early, Chen Yang got out of bed.
The first thing he did after getting up, as usual, was to load all the wild rabbits he’d caught the day before and intended to sell onto his tricycle.
Then, taking advantage of the dim light of dawn, he headed towards the county town.
By around nine o’clock, he arrived at Lintianxia Hotel and drove his electric tricycle into the hotel’s backyard.
However, at this ti, there was no one in the back yard, and the doors were not open.
Seeing this, Chen Yang imdiately took out his phone and called Wang De.
“Chef Wang, I’ve arrived at your hotel, but your backyard gate isn’t open, what’s going on?” Chen Yang said.
“Oh, brother, you’re here so early!
Wait a minute, I’ll co right now to open the gate for you.” Wang De was first a bit surprised, then he beca excited.
He knew that the last batch of rabbits had been highly praised by the custors who had eaten them.
So he also showed off in front of his superiors, not only receiving comndation but also a raise in salary, which is why he was eager to procure another batch of rabbits.
Chen Yang sat in his electric tricycle and after a few minutes, creak, Lintianxia Hotel’s back gate opened.
Wang De, with a cigarette in his mouth and a few apprentices following behind, walked out beaming with a smile.
“Sorry, brother, for making you wait!
We usually start working at nine o’clock, which is why the gate wasn’t open.
Don’t take it to heart.” Wang De ca up to apologize with a smile all over his face.
Seeing Wang De’s courteous expression, Chen Yang knew he valued his rabbits.
“No problem, I haven’t waited long.
There are more than thirty this ti, I won’t bother counting each one, let’s stick with the old rule, let’s say five pounds each!” Chen Yang stated expressionlessly.
“Agreed!
Brother, you’re straightforward, and so am I, we’ll do it at five pounds each, forty-five yuan per pound!” Wang De didn’t think twice before nodding in agreent.
“Mhm!
Alright then, I have thirty-one wild rabbits this ti, which total six thousand nine hundred seventy-five, you can give six thousand nine for them.” Chen Yang calculated carefully, then stated the exact figure, and even rounded down for Wang De.
Hearing Chen Yang’s figures, Wang De waved his hands repeatedly, “That won’t do, brother, I can’t keep rounding down every ti.
Let’s just make it seven thousand!”
“Hehe, alright, then seven thousand it is.” Seeing Wang De insisting on giving an extra hundred, Chen Yang did not refuse—who would quarrel with money?
After a jovial agreent, it was business as usual.
Wang De imdiately took Chen Yang through the back door, heading to Lintianxia Hotel’s finance room to settle the account.
However, halfway there, Wang De enthusiastically threw an arm around Chen Yang’s shoulder and whispered in his ear, “Brother, if you ever have any ga in the future, be sure to bring it here to !
I will definitely give you a good price.”
“You can count on not to let you down.”
Wang De chuckled and patted Chen Yang on the shoulder, appearing to be on very good terms with him.
Seeing Wang De’s enthusiastic face, Chen Yang joined in the laughter and nodded in agreent.
Because the price Wang De offered was indeed fair.
And he was also quite polite, which made doing business with such a person comfortable for Chen Yang.
Besides, Chen Yang was planning to get into breeding, so having a good relationship with soone like Wang De could only be beneficial.
The two cheerfully took the elevator, and then Wang De stretched out his hand and pressed the button for the 36th floor, which was the top floor of Lintianxia Hotel.
“Chef Wang, isn’t the finance room on the second floor?
Why did you press for the top floor today?” Chen Yang asked, puzzled as he saw Wang De pressing the elevator button.
“Ah, the finance room is on the second floor, but the finance staff isn’t in today, so we have to go to our hotel’s general manager to settle the account!” Wang De explained.
“I see.”
With that explanation from Wang De, Chen Yang did not think further and directly went to the top floor, then entered the general manager’s office.
Upon entering, Wang De’s deanor was very different from when he entered the finance room; he couldn’t just walk in.
He knocked on the door with all due decorum, then asked, “Is the general manager in?”
“Co in.”
Listening to the voice, the general manager was a woman.
“General Manager, today I’ve collected thirty-one wild rabbits.
Since the accountant, Song, is on vacation, I ca up to settle the account with you,” Wang De spoke softly and politely to the General Manager upon entering the office.
“Oh, good.”
The General Manager nodded and then looked up, ready to settle the account.
But at that mont, the General Manager’s gaze t Chen Yang’s.
Then, almost simultaneously, both of them exclaid in surprise and called out each other’s na!
“Li Han!”
“Chen Yang!”
This General Manager was none other than Li Han, who just yesterday still owed Chen Yang seven hundred and fifty thousand!
“What a coincidence, Li Han.
I didn’t expect you to be the General Manager of Lintianxia Hotel!” Chen Yang said with surprise.
“Yes, quite a coincidence.
Lintianxia Hotel is one of my family’s properties.
I didn’t expect to et you here!” Li Han replied with a smile, standing up, equally astonished.
Witnessing the two’s familiar interaction, Wang De was stunned.
However, he quickly ca to his senses, realizing that Chen Yang and their General Manager were acquaintances and, apparently, had a good relationship.
“Manager Li, since you’re acquainted with this brother, I’ll head down first.
There are a lot of rabbits to deal with in the kitchen,” Wang De said respectfully before turning and leaving the office.
After Wang De left, Li Han led Chen Yang to sit down at the tea table in the office.
“Chen Yang, I really didn’t expect that the person supplying wild rabbits to our hotel a few days ago was you,” Li Han remarked with surprise.
“I didn’t expect the hotel to be yours either.
Had I known, I would have contacted you directly,” Chen Yang responded with a smile, finding the current situation utterly unexpected.
“Knowing now isn’t too late.
You can still contact directly in the future,” Li Han said with a smile as he poured a cup of tea for Chen Yang, and then took out his phone: “Just now, Chef Wang ntioned settling the paynt for the rabbits, how much is it in total?”
“Hmm, thirty-one rabbits, that’ll be seven thousand yuan,” Chen Yang replied.
“Alright, I’ll transfer it to you directly,” Li Han said with a smile.
Chen Yang also took out his phone, and the two completed the transfer.
After the transfer, Li Han invited Chen Yang to taste the tea.
Chen Yang lifted the tea cup and lightly sipped it.
As he drank, a gleam of enlightennt flashed across his eyes, and the na of the tea instantly ca to mind.
Seeing the na of the tea in his mind, Chen Yang knew his opportunity to show off had arrived.
“Tsk!” Chen Yang didn’t understand tea, but he smacked his lips as if he were savoring it, and then casually said, “Nice tea.
It truly deserves its reputation as a top-notch famous tea from this province, Duyun Maojian!”
With these profound words, Li Han was taken aback on the spot.
Her smile froze on her face.
“You…
are impressive.
Can you really discern that just from one sip?” Li Han’s eyes widened, and she looked at Chen Yang with admiration.
“Hmm, I’ve done so research on tea at ho, so I understand a bit,” Chen Yang said earnestly.
As Chen Yang maintained his serious deanor, Li Han truly admired him in that mont.
And she couldn’t help but wonder with intense curiosity who exactly Chen Yang was.
Her tea was indeed, as Chen Yang had said, Duyun Maojian from this province!
But not many people were familiar with this tea, as it costs several hundred thousand yuan per half-kilogram on the market!
Chen Yang identified the tea after just one sip.
How well acquainted must he be with Duyun Maojian?
Li Han, filled with astonishnt, kept silent, not asking how Chen Yang was able to identify it.
Because she felt that even if she did ask, Chen Yang wouldn’t tell her.
And for so reason, she quite enjoyed the mysterious aura that Chen Yang carried; it was very attractive to her!
