"The man is Lin Yongqiang, the founder of the once best-selling 'Yongqiang Brand' in the province."
"Yes, he has suffered losses at the hands of Hu Xiaobei before."
"And not just once."
Seeing these barrage of comnts, Ling Keke was sowhat enlightened.
In that instant, she also understood why this man had such a pained expression on his face as soon as he appeared...
"What's ant to co will always find its way!"
Watching Lin Yongqiang and his lackeys appear, Hu Xiaobei narrowed his eyes slightly.
At this mont, Hu Xiaobei noticed Guo iyu trembling beside him.
Knowing she was angry, Hu Xiaobei reassured her, "Sister-in-law, I'm here. As long as Lin Yongqiang dares to seek death, I'll make him pay."
"Yes!"
While Guo iyu gently agreed, Hu Xiaobei looked at Lin Yongqiang.
Then, Hu Xiaobei heard Lin Yongqiang speak directly, "Brother Xiaobei, I heard you're opening for business today, so I hurried over. I'm not too late, am I?"
"Not at all, to tell the truth, I thought you were busy and wouldn't co."
"I am indeed very busy, but I still had to co. After all, we're brothers!"
"Heh! You're over here, but who's dealing with all those mbers canceling their mberships? I've heard your company doesn't have much cash because all the mbers withdrew their cards at once. Shall I lend you three or five hundred to tide you over?"
"You... Sharp-tongued! Of course, I won't lower myself to your level. I brought you a gift."
As he spoke, he clapped his hands lightly, and soon after, a few people carried a bell over.
After the bell was placed down, Lin Yongqiang smiled and said, "This is a fine bell; you must accept it."
"Sending funeral gifts? How venomous!"
"That's for sure!"
"There really are no friends among competitors, only hatred."
As Lin Yongqiang spoke, those present couldn't help but shake their heads slightly.
"I don't need this. You should keep it for yourself."
Saying that, Hu Xiaobei didn't continue to engage with him but said softly, "Everyone, our Xiaobei Brand isn't just great with fruit flavors; the vegetable flavors are also fantastic. Today, I'll give a proper demonstration in front of everyone."
As he spoke, Hu Xiaobei signaled, and soon five staff mbers busily lit the stove, and shortly, the five pots began to heat up.
Seeing this scene, Lin Yongqiang sneered, "Idiot, you're not planning to cook right here and then claim your vegetables taste good?"
As Lin Yongqiang mocked, his entourage chid in!
"Exactly, it's absurd!"
"Right, any top chef can make even the worst vegetables taste great."
"True."
Hearing such mockery, Hu Xiaobei said, "I know this is what everyone thinks. However, I don't intend to let a chef do the cooking. I'm just going to boil the vegetables simply, and then you all can taste for yourselves."
Hearing Hu Xiaobei say it was just a simple boil, soone in the crowd suddenly spoke up, "Just boiling? With plain water?"
"That's right!"
As he spoke, Hu Xiaobei clapped his hands, and soon, several people ca over carrying buckets of water.
Hu Xiaobei glanced at Lin Yongqiang and said, "Chairman Lin, this is ordinary water. If you don't believe it, you're welco to inspect it carefully."
Lin Yongqiang indifferently replied, "I believe you! No need to check."
Despite saying that, he still eyed the water carefully, convinced it was indeed just plain water...
After the water was added to the pots by the staff, Hu Xiaobei said blandly, "Folks, cooking can be a real headache for many people, and it's difficult for so to master in a lifeti. Moreover, adding too many condints can destroy the food's nutritional value and even so can impact health."
Hearing Hu Xiaobei speak, everyone nodded in agreent.
They knew this to be true, but it seed there was no choice, for without condints, the food prepared just lacked any taste, and eating it was like chewing wax.
As everyone nodded, Lin Yongqiang scoffed disdainfully, "We understand the principle, but what's the use of this drivel? Are you saying the vegetables you sell can be eaten without any condints?"
"That's right!"
As his subordinates echoed him, Lin Yongqiang sneered with satisfaction, "If you can't do that, then don't spout this useless talk here."
"How coincidental, the vegetables I've cultivated can be eaten without any condints whatsoever. And they will definitely taste fresh and delicious. I know many people don't believe it's true, so now I'll demonstrate it right here. I have prepared so Chinese cabbage, lotus root, bamboo shoots, spinach, and celery. Shortly, I'll add them directly into these five pots."
Having said that, Hu Xiaobei walked up to the pots and said, "As everyone saw a mont ago, there's only plain water in these pots. I'll add the vegetables, and then you can all wait to taste."
"Is that even possible?"
"Right, it can't taste good without condints."
"I think so, too!"
The people present knew little about Hu Xiaobei's Xiaobei Brand vegetables, so they whispered among themselves...
Hearing their murmurs, the corner of Hu Xiaobei's mouth curled into a slight smile...
Previously, the Nine Wood True Qi within Hu Xiaobei's body had undergone so mutations.
Thus, the transformation of the vegetables went deeper, and as such, these latest crop of vegetables could indeed be showcased in their deliciousness without any added condints.
"I really can't believe you can eat them without condints! I'll just sit here and watch, curious to see how you make these tasty using only plain water."
Sneering, Lin Yongqiang just sat down...
Lin Yongqiang thought Hu Xiaobei was just spouting nonsense, therefore absolutely disbelieving.
Not only Lin Yongqiang but also the lackeys that ca with him were utterly incredulous...
...
"Since you don't believe it, then you'd better watch carefully with those dog eyes of yours!"
With that said, Hu Xiaobei gestured, and soon the staff poured the prepared vegetables into the pots...
As the staff added the vegetables and covered the pots, Guo iyu's lips curled into a faint smile...
At this point, she had no doubts whatsoever.
Because she completely believed in Hu Xiaobei.
She felt that if Hu Xiaobei said it could be done, then it surely could be done...
She didn't need to do anything, just wait and watch peacefully...
She had absolute confidence in Hu Xiaobei, but many people present and those watching the live broadcast on TV didn't share the sa level of confidence in Hu Xiaobei.
Ling Keke also had her doubts...
