Hearing this, Fan Chengxu didn’t speak for a while.

Wei Ruo was in no hurry and just looked at Fan Chengxu.

After a while, Fan Chengxu asked, “What’s your name?”

“Xu Heyou,” Wei Ruo replied.

“Young Master Xu.” Fan Chengxu murmured the name, then curled his lips into a smile and said, “Alright, Xu Heyou, I’ll do business with you. But I have one condition.”

“Please go ahead, Master Fan.”

“If you’re going to do business with me, then you must not sell these seasonings to anyone else in the future,” Fan Chengxu demanded.

Wei Ruo shook his head. “I can’t agree to that, Master Fan. I can only promise that within Taizhou Prefecture, I will exclusively sell five-spice powder and oyster sauce to Drunken Immortal Restaurant, but outside of Taizhou Prefecture, it’s a different matter. Furthermore, I will continue using five-spice powder and oyster sauce in my own braised food shop.”

Not only was he unwilling to sell all three seasonings exclusively to Drunken Immortal Restaurant, but he also refused to limit their sale beyond Taizhou Prefecture.

Shopkeeper Shen was a bit angry. “Young Master Xu, don’t push your luck.”

Did he think their young master was just anyone, that he could bargain so boldly?

Wei Ruo replied calmly and unhurriedly, “Since this is business, it should be a matter of mutual agreement. Master Fan can state his conditions, and I can state my own. If we can come to an agreement, we do business; if not, we don’t. There’s no such thing as being too much or not.”

Fan Chengxu chuckled lightly. “You’re right.”

Wei Ruo continued, “In fact, just the five-spice powder alone is enough to make Drunken Immortal Restaurant stand out among the many restaurants. Moreover, Drunken Immortal Restaurant’s chefs are already superior to those in other establishments. With these spices in their hands, they’ll achieve a level that other restaurant chefs simply cannot match.”

“Additionally, I can see that Master Fan is a man of great ambition. Your business empire will not be limited to Taizhou Prefecture alone. If you plan to open more restaurants in other locations in the future, I can continue supplying your establishments elsewhere as well.”

Fan Chengxu looked at Wei Ruo with a half-smiling expression.

Under his sharp and piercing gaze, Wei Ruo remained composed and at ease.

“Alright,” Fan Chengxu said. “I accept your terms. The five-spice powder and oyster sauce, aside from being used in your own braised food shop, can only be supplied to my restaurants. As for soy sauce, you may sell it to others. However, you must also train my chefs on how to properly use these seasonings.”

“Alright, no problem,” Wei Ruo agreed.

The two continued discussing their collaboration over a cup of tea.

Throughout the conversation, Wei Ruo maintained his confidence, courtesy, and unwavering composure.

Once their discussion was over, Wei Ruo left Drunken Immortal Restaurant.

After he was gone, Shopkeeper Shen turned to Fan Chengxu and said, “Young Master, this Xu fellow is being far too disrespectful to you. Agreeing to a long-term partnership with him is already a great favor, yet he still dares to refuse so many conditions.”

“What did he do wrong?” Fan Chengxu asked in return.

“For someone so unknown to speak to you like that, it seems a bit too arrogant…” Shopkeeper Shen answered cautiously.

“If he could be easily swayed, then he wouldn’t be worthy of doing business with me,” Fan Chengxu said with a faint smile.

To negotiate with him on equal footing, one had to at least possess intelligence and boldness to match.

Shopkeeper Shen was quite surprised. He hadn’t expected that such an unattractive young master would actually gain their young master’s approval.

Back at Xu’s Braised Food Shop, Wei Ruo shared the good news with Xiumei.
