Song Ming smiled bitterly.
It’s reliable, but it’s useless. We don’t have any evidence to prove that Hiei Premium Tea is the result of man-made genetic modifications. They claimed that they were using the best breed of tea that had been nurtured for a hundred years. Furthermore, the Japanese are very trusted in Europe. The Europeans believe them.

 

Muddle Tang said,
That means that this competition is basically doomed. Therefore, you came to Mt. One Finger to seek the tea. You want to know if this Frost Bamboo tea can breathe in life for Chinese tea leaves?

 

Song Ming nodded.
Yes, it’s hope. I hope it doesn’t turn into despair.

 

Tang Chen said,
I heard that Frost Bamboo tea was invested in by a Chinese company in Southeast Asia… Unfortunately, if we had known that there was such tea, we would have invested ourselves.

 

Song Ming said,
I’ve investigated this matter before. It’s indeed a Chinese company. However, behind this company is Vietnam’s uncrowned emperor, Nguyen Vo Hong. However, their contract is very strange. The other party is only responsible for investments and operations. As for the harvesting and production of Frost Bamboo tea, they are not involved at all. Furthermore, a portion of the income is used to improve the lives of the villagers. Most of it will be donated to charity. I really don’t understand what benefits this brings to their company.

 

Muddle Tang and Tang Chen were both surprised. They couldn’t understand the situation at all. They were going to great efforts just to do good? A foreigner helping China? They found it unbelievable!
 

…
 


Village Chief, are there such foolish people in this world?
Dog Song tugged at his crooked hat as he looked at the contract in disbelief.
 

Wang Yougui said,
Don’t ask me. I don’t know why she’s doing this. I’ve already told her that doing so won’t result in any profits. At best, she will break even and gain some reputation, but…

 

With that said, Wang Yougui looked up at Mt. One Finger and said,
If there’s a reason, there’s only one reason. The other party’s goal is not Frost Bamboo Tea, but something like what Nguyen Anh Chu said. They are only here to repay their kindness and have no motives. However, I have a nagging feeling that they have their motives… Fangzheng is the only person in the world with divine powers. Perhaps this is a reason. I really can’t imagine that just ten years ago, Fangzheng was freeloading on us. But ten years later today, a tycoon worth billions has to use such methods to curry favor and establish connections.

 

Dog Song was taken aback.
Pull connections? To invest a figure with so many zeros just to establish connections?

 

Wang Yougui nodded.
Yes, I think so, at least that’s what I feel. From the looks of it, we have underestimated Fangzheng’s influence.

 

Dog Song chuckled and said,
I don’t care about the influence. All I know is that he’s my benefactor! He’s part of the family, one we have watched growing up. Aiyah… Village Chief, what’s in the contract? Top-grade Frost Bamboo tea isn’t for sale?

 

Wang Yougui nodded and said,
Yes. From the beginning, I had already made it clear to Nguyen Anh Chu that the production of top-grade Frost Bamboo tea is too low in quantity. It’s meant for Fangzheng. No one in our village has the right to make decisions for him and sell his things. The Frost Bamboo at the foot of the mountain has already given our village a great deal of benefits. One must be content.

 

Dog Song said,
Then what’s up with the advertisements on television?

 

Wang Yougui said with a smile,
That was the idea of Nguyen Anh Chu. Not a single leaf of Da Hong Pao goes on the market every year. Yet, isn’t it sold everywhere? Top-grade leaves aren’t for sale. Our village has the inferior ones, and the price can also be raised. It can be considered a form of advertising.

 

Dog Song was left speechless.
These people who do business have brains. I think it’s best Fangzheng doesn’t marry that lass. She’s too smart.

 

Wang Yougui smiled. Fangzheng getting married? This matter… was probably just a thought.
 

…
 

On the mountain, Muddle Tang, Tang Chen, and Song Ming were chatting excitedly when suddenly, they heard a cry.
 

Everyone subconsciously looked over and saw a monkey dressed in monk robes slowly walk out. When he saw everyone looking over, Monkey pressed his palms together and said,
Patrons, it’s best you don’t wait. Although Frost Bamboo tea is produced on Mt. One Finger, our monastery has no intention of doing business with the tea. One Finger Monastery is a place of religion, not commerce. Please leave.

 

Tang Chen panicked.
 

Muddle Tang glared at Tang Chen, making him swallow the words he was about to say. It was as if he was saying:
They have the right to sell their goods. How can you force them into selling?

 

Tang Chen pursed his lips. He really couldn’t take it lying down. He had been suffering in the cold for so long, but in the end, he was returning empty-handed. What a scam.
 

Song Ming was clearly worried. Just as she was about to stand up and say something, she heard Boss Qian sneer.
Aiyo, from the sound of it, is it really because you don’t do business or do you not have the tea at all? If you don’t have the tea, why did you advertise? Are you fooling the world, treating them as fools?

 

Monkey originally thought that it would be fine once he made things clear, but he never expected someone to say something like that!
 

Although Monkey had been on the mountain for a year, he still had a feral nature.
 

If he was impressed, he was truly impressed.
 

If he wasn’t impressed? He had never been afraid of the numerous monks back at Baiyun Monastery!
 

Furthermore, he was not alone now. He had helpers!
 

Therefore, Monkey grinned and looked up. He smiled at Fangzheng and said,
Patron, firstly, it’s not us who advertised it. Secondly, even if we did, what has it got to do with you?

 

Boss Qian was stunned…
 

The others sniggered when they heard that. There was nothing wrong with Monkey’s words. No one asked you to come just because I burned money advertising!
 

Seeing Boss Qian suffer, Song Ming also smiled.
 

Boss Qian only felt his face burning red. He snorted and said,
Isn’t an advertisement meant to sell things? If you are selling things, what’s wrong with us coming to see the goods?

 

Monkey said,
America released a military video two days ago. Have you gone to buy an aircraft carrier?

 

Boss Qian:
…

 


Pfft… As expected of Master Indecent’s disciple. Indeed, he’s freaking indecent… Haha…
Someone couldn’t help but laugh.
 

Boss Qian was furious and was about to say something in his embarrassment.
 

At that moment, an adorable squirrel jumped out and said,
Junior Brother, Master wants you to go over.

 

Monkey was taken aback as he nodded and left.
 

Boss Qian did not stop him as well. He could tell that this monkey was a little shrewd and he probably wouldn’t win in an argument.
 

However, he couldn’t take this lying down… Therefore, he sneakily cast his gaze on Squirrel. Looking at the adorable little guy, he thought to himself, 
A monkey is quite a smart creature, but this squirrel should be pure and silly. The embarrassment that monkey gave me can be wiped away with this squirrel!


 

Therefore, after Monkey left, Boss Qian pointed at Squirrel and said,
What? He ran away when he realized that he was in the wrong? Since your junior brother ran away, why don’t you as the senior brother stay behind to answer my questions?
