I'm afraid that this free publicity will be more effective than any future publicity she spends on herself.

After agreeing on a time, Lu Youxi hung up the phone and said to the village chief, "Uncle, Zhenxin Supermarket has agreed to put Hexing rice on the shelves!"

"That's great!" The village chief was so happy that he was at a loss for words. "I have to tell this good news to the whole village!"

"Well, when you speak, remember to thank everyone for their support. It is because of everyone's support that Hexingmi became famous and helped me negotiate the business." Lu Youxi instructed.

"I will definitely tell them. Everyone will be happy if they know that they have helped!" said the village chief.

"You can also tell everyone that I will raise the price for everyone when the time comes. I will ask the finance department to calculate the price carefully when I go back, but it will definitely be a lot." Lu Youxi said, "Let everyone feel at ease first. So that they won't have any doubts in their hearts, thinking that if we have a deal, will they raise the price? Don't let me say that I will help everyone get rich, but then I won't mention it after I really make money. Let's give everyone a reassurance first."

The village chief smiled. Lu Youxi really understood the villagers.

The villagers are actually all good people, otherwise they wouldn’t have come together to support Lu Youxi when he was wronged.

But they all have their own little calculations.

They were also very strict with money, and they remembered most clearly what Lu Youxi had said.

"Okay, I'll call back and tell everyone." The village chief said with a smile.

"No, let's tell everyone after the signing is completed this afternoon. Once the matter is completely confirmed, we will feel at ease." Lu Youxi said again.

The village chief slapped his thigh and said, "I am anxious. We need to settle the matter thoroughly before we talk about it."

The two went back to the restaurant at noon, and while eating, they told Liu Yusu and Grandma Xu about their progress.

When the two heard that they had reached cooperation with Dongshenglai Hotel and Zhenxin Supermarket, they were overjoyed.

In the afternoon, Lu Youxi and the village chief went to the Zhenxin Supermarket to discuss the details of the contract with Mr. Zhang.

As soon as they met, Mr. Zhang said, "Mr. Lu, I heard that your company has signed a contract with Dongshenglai?"

"Mr. Zhang, you are well-informed!" Lu Youxi said with a smile, but there was no surprise on his face. It was obvious that he was not surprised that Mr. Zhang knew this.

"Looking at your expression, it's not surprising that I know that." Mr. Zhang said with a smile.

"Oh, we're in the same industry. If you didn't know, I would be surprised. It's normal for Zhenxin Supermarket to grasp the news in the industry in a timely manner. But it also shows that your network of information is amazing." Lu Youxi said.

"I heard it from Shili Xiang as well. Shili Xiang contacted us out of the blue, and there wasn't anything important going on. I thought something was a little unusual. I found out after asking around."

"Then I won't hide it from you. You can definitely find out that I reduced the price for Dongshenglai by 10%." Lu Youxi said.

Mr. Zhang heaved a sigh of relief and looked at Lu Youxi with a high opinion of him. “Indeed.”

Sure enough, Mr. Zhang knew it.

"Before, Mr. Hu from Yuehaolai Supermarket treated me rudely at a dinner party, and it was Mr. Shi who rushed out and not only protected me, but also served as a witness for me. The camera that secretly filmed our dinner party was also found by the other party, a waiter from Dongsheng, who reported it directly to Mr. Shi. Mr. Shi contacted me and asked me what I thought. I wanted to see what the other party was trying to do, so I asked Mr. Shi to play along and have the waiter install the camera. In addition, in order to prove it to me, Mr. Shi installed their own camera after obtaining my consent."

"So after I was slandered, I was able to immediately produce evidence to prove myself, and I had a better chance of following the clues to find out who was scheming against me," Lu Youxi said. "After all, installing cameras in the hotel's private rooms to film customers dining would have a huge negative impact on the hotel."

"Boss Shi is willing to take such a risk to help me. I am really grateful to him. I owe him a big favor." Lu Youxi said gratefully, "Boss Zhang, I am young and may not have met that many people, but I also know that Boss Shi is a rare and righteous man who can do this. I think that if it were someone else, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to do what he does."

"When we were discussing business that day, I also gave Dongsheng a bag of rice and asked them to cook it in the kitchen to try it. I just thought that if they thought it tasted good, they would buy from me. I didn't expect that Mr. Shi actually thought it was good and came to buy rice from me."

"Boss Shi has been very kind to me, so I directly offered to give him a batch. But Boss Shi refused to agree, insisting that he should pay Dongsheng the same price I gave other companies." Lu Youxi muttered again, "Boss Shi is so righteous!"

At this time, Dongsheng came to Shi Yusheng's office.

His ears suddenly felt hot, his nose itched, and he sneezed twice.

He rubbed his nose with his index finger twice, "It's not a cold."

He had no idea that Lu Youxi was building a reputation for him.

"But I was wondering how to repay Mr. Shi. I can't do anything else but reduce the price by 10%. I had to persuade Mr. Shi to agree after much persuasion." Lu Youxi said, "Mr. Zhang, I'm really sorry about this. I did promise to give the same price to everyone. But Mr. Shi really did me a favor, I..."

"I understand, I understand!" Mr. Zhang said quickly, "This is what we should do, this is what we should do."

"Even if it were me, I would do the same." Mr. Zhang sighed.

He had some opinions about Lu Youxi before.

Lu Youxi was talking to him in a very detailed manner, saying that the price for everything was the same, and he acted as if he was very persistent.

As a result, they turned around and gave Dongsheng a lower price.

Could it be because Dongsheng came to find her first?

Is it really like she said, whoever finds her first will have a lower price? If so, wouldn't the price of Hexingmi be messed up? Besides, although his Zhenxin Supermarket was not the first to find her, it contacted her quickly and with enough sincerity.

If Lu Youxi tricked him like this, he would still be very unhappy.

So there was a tentative intention just now.

If Lu Youxi couldn't give a reasonable explanation, he really planned to go back on his word.
