Liu Family.

Liu Changlong’s father, who is also the richest man in Shin, Liu He, was sitting on the sofa watching Liu Changlong.

"Changlong, it was your insistence that I allowed you to fully control the Wild Drinks project, but explain to , why did you go out of your way to provoke Lu Xiaobu?" Liu He asked with interlaced fingers, staring at Liu Changlong.

"Father, this is not going out of my way, just a little trick," Liu Changlong spoke leisurely. "That fool Lu Xiaobu was first tricked by out of 1.82 million, boosting our liquidity."

"Although Lu Xiaobu’s sudden outburst caught off guard, because I was prepared, it not only prevented us from suffering losses."

"It even helped us use the recent popularity of Lu Xiaobu on Weibo to maximize the exposure of our Wild Drink, which is much more effective than just our own advertising."

Hearing Liu Changlong’s confident words, Liu He nodded. "Your mind is quite clear, rember, business is like a battlefield, bringing personal grievances into it could doom you. But you did well this ti."

"Thank you for the complint, father," Liu Changlong continued, "With this, the Lu Family will surely beco a stepping stone for the Liu Family."

...

Beijing ti, exactly 10 o’clock.

After a huge buildup, Wild Drink, which had swept the internet, was finally launched.

Every large, dium, and small supermarket placed Wild Drink in the most conspicuous place.

Once Wild Drink went on sale, it imdiately caused a scramble among people.

"Give a bottle of Wild."

"I’ll take a case."

"Is this Wild Drink really that good?"

"Nonsense, could anything endorsed by my husband be wrong?"

"..."

At a supermarket.

"Boss, Wild..."

"Sorry, it’s sold out; I’m on the phone reordering."

"How the hell is it all sold out! Don’t you know to stock more? I’ve been to three supermarkets and can’t find a single bottle."

"Sorry, sorry."

The boss could only smile wryly—after all, who knew the drink would beco such a hit.

Now the Liu Family’s phone was almost blown up with calls to stock up.

Stock up, sell, stock up, sell...

Trucks full of drinks left the Liu Family factory and returned empty.

And that money flowed into the pockets of the Liu Family like water.

Liu Changlong, witnessing the huge success of the marketing, let out a hearty laugh and once again mocked Lu Xiaobu: "In just this one hour, our sales have already hit one million, wonder where your drink is?"

Lu Xiaobu: "Idiot!"

Liu Changlong: "You cursing?"

Lu Xiaobu: "Did I curse? Do you want to teach you what cursing is right now?"

Liu Changlong angrily replied, not daring to get into a verbal fight with Lu Xiaobu: "I won’t compete in verbal skills with you, let’s wait and see!"

Lu Xiaobu: "Get lost, I’m not riding with you! Don’t be so bloody clingy!"

Liu Changlong, infuriated, smashed his phone and yelled: "Lu Xiaobu, wait three days, in three days, I’ll have you kneeling before !"

Liang Lan called.

"Young Master, the first batch of cola has been canned, shall we start selling?" Liang Lan asked.

"Sell it, damn him," Lu Xiaobu nodded.

"How much should we price it?"

"How much is that garbage Wild priced?"

"Five yuan."

"Alright, let’s also price it at five yuan each. So no one says we’re bullying anyone."

"Okay, Young Master!"

After hanging up the phone, Liang Lan’s eyes ignited with fierce determination—this must be done brilliantly!

Soon, Lu Xiaobu’s cola was also on the shelves, delivered to major supermarkets.

These supermarket owners, trying to avoid offending either side, took so cola, but only in small amounts and placed them in inconspicuous corners.

Obviously, the profitable Wild Drinks are given the pri spots. That whatever-it’s-called cola, dark and unattractive in appearance.

In a supermarket.

"Boss, hurry up and unload, I still need to make two more runs," the Liu Family truck driver shouted.

"Alright, alright," the boss happily responded. When seeing cola being unloaded, he instructed the workers: "Stop here, don’t rush. Go unload the Wild Drinks first, quick!"

"Hey, what do you an by this?"

The cola truck driver, annoyed, "Isn’t our product also a product? Isn’t there a first-co, first-served?"

"Done with the chatter, eh?" mocked the Wild Drinks truck driver, patting his truck. "Can you compare with us, Wild Drinks? We are here to bring money to boss, you are here to cause losses for him. He’s being nice by not kicking you out."

"You! You just wait!"

The cola truck driver, furious but helpless.

Eventually, cola was unloaded very slowly after the Wild Drinks truck had made two more trips, casually being tossed aside, clearly not valued.

"Boss, give a drink, heard that Wild Drinks are really popular, give one."

A spirited young man, Li Lei, entered the supermarket and spoke to the boss.

"Here you go," the boss, grinning, accepted the money and handed over the drink.

"What’s that?"

Li Lei had just taken a sip when he noticed the dark cola placed aside.

"It’s another drink called cola, from that Lu Xiaobu who just battled Wild Drinks online," the boss explained.

"Oh? Interesting, give one of those too, I want to compare," Li Lei looked intrigued.

A custor who had just arrived overheard Li Lei and impatiently said, "Can you hurry up? I’m waiting to pay. That cola stuff looks like traditional dicine, can it taste good? Just hurry up and go. I need to buy Wild Drinks."

"Hey, what’s with the language?"

Li Lei, known for his temper, stood his ground: "I’m spending my money, is it any of your business? Boss, give it to ."

"Here, here, here."

The boss, fearing a fight, quickly handed Li Lei a bottle of iced cola.

Psssh—

Upon opening the cola bottle, a rush of gas escaped with a sound.

First off, good or bad, that sound alone gave a strange sense of release.

Li Lei cautiously took a sip.

Result—

Glug, glug!

He couldn’t stop. The cold, unique taste of the cola stimulated his taste buds and refreshed his tired body, making him feel revitalized.

Li Lei put down the cola, exclaiming excitedly, "This is what a real drink is. Refreshing!"

"Ha, you must be a plant! Acting so pro, must be hard on you."

The person behind him started complaining again, "That junk can’t taste good, impossible!"

"Not tasty? Hey, with my temper! Then keep drinking your Wild Drinks!"

Li Lei put the cola aside and grabbed the man by the neck, forcing the Wild Drinks bottle to his mouth.

Glug—Cough, cough, cough!

The man choked and coughed, lying on the ground.

"Kid, tastes good, doesn’t it?" Li Lei sneered at the man on the ground, tossed away the Wild Drinks and told the boss, "Give ten, no, ten cases of cola, better stock up now, because they might be gone soon. Really don’t know how the heck Lu Xiaobu ca up with such a delicious drink!"
