Lei Ting and An Ning came to inspect the New Jin Chinese Medicine Shop, but unexpectedly, Chong Lou encountered trouble. People from the baking school in Bei Aiguo and Cherry Country came to discuss cooperation on the supply of auxiliary materials. The two greedy people were about to negotiate an unreasonable price with Chong Lou when Chong Lou learned that Lei Ting and An Ning had arrived. He quickly asked Lei Ting and An Ning for help.
Lei Ting and An Ning arrived at Chong Lou's office. Lei Ting intended to greet the two politely, but unexpectedly, Brad and Sap wanted to give Lei Ting a hard time. They ignored Lei Ting and turned to talk to An Ning, who then took over the conversation and passed it back to Lei Ting.
An Ning: "Talk to Mr. Lei about cooperation on auxiliary materials. He will give you a reasonable price."
Brad: "OK, Mr. Lei, please tell me your offer."
Lei Ting: "Chonglou, I need to go to the restroom after drinking so many cups of tea. Lead the way."
Anning: "I need to touch up my makeup too."
Thunder: "Let's go, Mr. An."
Thunder wasn't going to put up with Brad and Sap. He grabbed Anning's arm and led them to the Chinese medicine shop's restroom. Thunder whispered in Anning's ear in the restroom.
Anning: "How annoying, let's finish our work first."
Thunder: "Haha, what are those two pretending for? Let me see the quote Chonglou gave them first."
An Ning: "I need to touch up my makeup. You go and talk to Chonglou about work first. Those two are quite capable, and Chonglou can't handle them."
Thunder: "Okay."
When Lei Ting came out of the bathroom, Chong Lou presented him with the quote. Lei Ting frowned as soon as he saw it.
Lei Ting: "Chonglou, didn't you see the quote Guo Fan gave you? That quote wouldn't even cover your travel expenses. You're trying to play games with them by offering so many auxiliary drugs. They're not my wives."
Chonglou: "President Lei, their annual demand for auxiliary materials is huge. I'm applying to President Guo, but I haven't shown them yet."
Lei Ting: "That's good. It's good that we didn't show it to them. If they had, the deal would have fallen through. Come in with me in a bit and learn something."
Chonglou: "Yes, thank goodness President Lei came. These two have come several times, and each time they negotiated the price and left."
Lei Ting: "That's normal. They're just keeping you in suspense and testing your patience. They won't leave today. They didn't even leave when An Ning and I went to the bathroom, which means they really need our supplies."
Chonglou: "President Lei is the smartest. President Guo sent me a message saying that this price is not good and that I should raise it by 30%."
Lei Ting: "Your quote is definitely not going to work. Raise it by forty percent first. Do you think I don't care about the little bit of money I make from overseas ingredients just because I supply ingredients to the baking factory? Don't you know my nickname, Mr. Lei?"
Chonglou: "I know, Young Master Lei."
Lei Ting: "Young Master Lei is a title. Let me tell you, my nickname is Lei Xiao Kou'er, remember that?"
Chonglou: "I've got it, President Lei. Don't worry, President Lei. The only thing we haven't been able to agree on is the price for their collaboration. Everything else is based on President Guo's price."
Lei Ting: "Hmm, well done. It's a waste of your talents to have a PhD in Traditional Chinese Medicine doing business negotiations. Have you ever heard of Mu Si Mountain?"
Chonglou: "I've heard of it; it's a place frequented by top-tier people."
Lei Ting: "You've really seen a lot. Tomorrow, President Lei will take you to a banquet at Mount Musi. You take your acupuncture needles; there's a girl who needs you to treat her with acupuncture."
Chonglou: "What illness does the patient have?"
Thunder: "The second daughter of Zeus's councilor, named Chiael, has epilepsy."
Chonglou: "Alright, I'll make her some perilla pills tonight and take them over tomorrow. I'll also take her pulse and give her acupuncture. Although I can't completely cure her, I'm confident I can reduce the incidence of her illness."
Lei Ting: "That's right, Chonglou. Even though we haven't had much contact, I admire you very much."
Chonglou: "Why?"
Thunder: "I just mentioned that Chia is the second daughter of Councilor Zeus. You weren't surprised by her identity, but only concerned about her illness. You even immediately thought of making medicine for her. This shows that you have a kind heart, the kind heart of a doctor."
Chonglou: "No matter who this person is, she is a patient and I am a doctor, nothing more."
Thunder: "Good, good, good, young man, you have a bright future, haha... Although you can be a bit silly sometimes, it's adorable, and your silliness is genuine..."
Chonglou: "Mr. Lei, are you praising me or scolding me...?"
Thunder: "Hahaha, I was just praising you, hahaha..."
Lei Ting laughed heartily. Several staff members in the lobby looked at Lei Ting, who was laughing heartily. This was Lei Ting, who was worth hundreds of billions. He seemed very down-to-earth. An Ning finished touching up her makeup and came over to pat Lei Ting. Lei Ting immediately stopped laughing and took An Ning's arm as they returned to Chong Lou's office. Chong Lou opened the door for them. Lei Ting sat down at the desk and chair and gestured for Chong Lou to pour tea for Brad and Sap. Brad was quite dissatisfied that Lei Ting had been gone for so long to go to the bathroom. He gestured to Chong Lou that he didn't need to pour tea. Chong Lou misunderstood and thought that Brad wanted to fill his teacup. Chong Lou poured tea while saying this.
Chonglou: "Mr. Brad, tea is not wine, so it can't be poured too full. Please drink slowly, and I'll pour you more when you're done. This is top-grade Maojian tea that I brought from my home. The aroma is wonderful when you drink it, and I don't usually give it to just anyone."
Thunder: "Hahaha... Chonglou, stop talking so much, hahaha..."
Lei Ting burst into laughter at Chong Lou's English translation. "I wouldn't normally give him tea," he said. "In Chinese, that would mean being polite, but in English, it sounds stingy and sarcastic, like they've never had tea before." Lei Ting was amused by Chong Lou's sincere silliness. Brad and Sap rolled their eyes at Chong Lou. They had drunk tea before and knew how to drink it. An Ning gestured for Chong Lou to sit down and listen quietly. After laughing, Lei Ting took a sip of premium Maojian tea and said to Chong Lou...
