287 Taste Test (Part 2)

“Everyone, please take a look. This is the item used to make tofu.”

“Zhao Zhan, you’re overstepping the line right now. The raw material for making tofu is soybeans. Based on what I know, only you have this thing.” The relaxed expression on Lin Chenzhi’s face was gone. He looked at Zhao Zhan with a sharp gaze. He deduced that Zhao Zhan has gathered everyone to play a big game of chess today.

“I’ve opened my door to do business, and I’ve never lied to you. I’ll give you the right to choose whether to cooperate or not later.”

Zhao Zhan continued to introduce the rest of the items.

“Zhao Zhan, I will be the first to cooperate with you!” Shopkeeper Zhou picked out a few things that could be used in his inn and signed a contract with Zhao Zhan. “As for things like tofu that require a lot of effort to make, I believe that after today’s meeting, we will be able to easily buy tofu in Huai County.”

“Thank you for your reasonable words.”

The others had already thought of the key points when Zhao Zhan had introduced them. As soon as the contract was signed, they stood in front of Zhao Zhan, discussing future plans with each other.

Only Shang and Lin Chenzhi had not moved.

“There’s still time to think things through. What’s the point of rushing into things?”

Shang’s face was dark. He had been in the business for decades, and if he were to cooperate with the other party, he, who had always been the dominant one, would be instantly countered by Zhao Zhan.

Lin Chenzhi hesitated for a moment before stepping forward. “Zhao Zhan, you didn’t do anything today, yet you received a large sum of silver. Other than the security fee, there’s also a five hundred alliance fee. What a brilliant move.”

Zhao Zhan couldn’t be bothered with him. He looked up at Lin Chenzhi and asked coldly, “Do you not want to pay?”

Lin Chenzhi gritted his teeth, but he had no choice but to painfully produce 500 silver for Zhao Zhan. “Here you go.”

“This will be the content of the contract. Lin Chenzhi, please take a good look at it. You are in charge of the transportation of all the goods. Also, you won’t get to have the brine as it won’t be able to hold from here to Bei City.”

“Then what would I gain with this five hundred alliance fee?”

“Of course it’s to join all of my Hundred Flavors Restaurant’s products. In the future, as long as you have your eye on something, I’ll provide it to you at a discounted price after joining the alliance.”

Lin Chenzhi looked at the limited items on the contract and for the first time, he could not contain his anger. “Zhao Zhan, that’s perfect!”

“Thank you for your praise.”

Shang had always been a suspicious person. Shang flicked his sleeves and turned to leave after he heard the conversation between Zhao Zhan and Lin Chenzhi, .

He, Shang, would never be controlled by a country bumpkin like Zhao Zhan!

“Zhao Zhan! You’ve done well! With these contracts established today, our shop’s business will boom!”

“I’ll still need Tianliu and Xiangjun for the maintenance.”

Zhao Zhan’s heart trembled from the excitement.

“My wife must be waiting for me, please excuse me.”

“Zhao Zhan, please!”

Li Xiangjun smiled, “Alright, stop looking. Zhao Zhan would definitely want to share the news with Jiaojiao first.”

“Xiangjun, I’m the same as Zhao Zhan.” Fang Tianliu went forward to grab Li Xiangjun’s hand. “You’d be the first to hear from me too.”

The two of them looked at each other, and there was an inexplicable feeling in the air.

Zhao Zhan walked slowly at first, but then he couldn’t hold back the joy in his heart and walked quickly. When he ran back to his room, he stood at the door and panted to calm his heartbeat. Then he opened the door.

Her eyes were covered.

Zhao Zhan was taken aback. He could no longer hide the smile on his face. Afraid that the other party would be startled awake, he bent down and said, “Jiaojiao.”

“Zhao Zhan, don’t move.” Yue Jiaojiao used a black cloth to cover Zhao Zhan’s eyes. She took a step back to take a look and nodded in satisfaction. “It looks pretty good.”

The cloth was tied into a black bow on Zhao Zhan’s ear.

Coupled with Zhao Zhan’s sharp eyes, the contrast was inexplicably cute.

“Zhao Zhan, come with me,”

Yue Jiaojiao held Zhao Zhan’s hand and walked to the table. She tugged at his clothes and made him sit down. “Do you smell something?”

Zhao Zhan honestly took a few deep breaths, thought about it, and asked tentatively, “Is that milk?”

“Try it.”

She brought the spoon to his lips.

Zhao Zhan opened his mouth and consumed it. It was soft and had a faint sweetness to it. It was a taste that he had never tasted before.

Yue Jiaojiao had already removed the cloth covering his face.

On the reddish-brown table, there was a round object that looked beautiful.
