Chapter 9

Yang Mingyan, with her mind entirely focused on the right to purchase cabbages, did not notice Zhang Dong's gaze at all.

After she added thirty percent to the original price, making it 130 yuan per large cabbage, she asked Zhang Dong again.

"Mr. Zhang, what do you think of the price I just mentioned? Is it much different from what you expected?"

"Big, really big!" Zhang Dong said, his eyes fixed in a daze.

Through the unbuttoned shirt, not only could one see the mysterious black lace, but also the even whiter and brighter skin beneath.

In fact, in the face of such temptation, no man in the world could resist looking, unless he was gay.

Following Zhang Dong's dazed gaze, Yang Mingyan looked down, and the next second, a deafening scream echoed through the office.

"Ah!!"

Yang Mingyan covered her chest with both hands, her face flushed with anger as she glared at Zhang Dong.

Zhang Dong was also stunned, feeling extremely awkward. Although the unbuttoned shirt was not his fault, being caught in the act was too embarrassing.

Outside the office, several tall male waiters, hearing the scream, immediately ran over, seemingly ready to rush in and play the hero.

However, before they could act, Vice President Ma, with a stern face, drove them away.

After driving away the male waiters, Vice President Ma couldn't help but shake his head, thinking that President Yang had made a great sacrifice for Dongzhou Restaurant!

But then he thought, if they could secure the exclusive right to purchase Zhang Dong's cabbages, even if she had to endure some inconvenience, it wouldn't be a loss.

After all, this was crucial for the future development of Dongzhou Restaurant!

With this in mind, Vice President Ma turned and left, but his face couldn't hide his envy for Zhang Dong.

Their idol, President Yang, had been taken advantage of by such a poor young man.

Vice President Ma could only sigh, thinking that life was like a chess game, and they were all just unlucky pawns!

Back in the office, after Yang Mingyan turned around and buttoned up her shirt, her expression was much colder than before.

"Mr. Zhang, what do you think of the price I mentioned just now?" Her lips parted slightly, her tone cold.

Zhang Dong also noticed Yang Mingyan's coldness.

But in response to her question, he had to answer.

He was also quite embarrassed, as he had been so engrossed in admiring Yang Mingyan's alluring figure that he hadn't paid attention to what she had been saying.

"Price, what price?" Zhang Dong's face turned slightly red, and he lowered his head.

Hearing this, Yang Mingyan bit her lip in anger.

So you were just staring at that spot and didn't listen to a word I said?

With a resentful tone, she had to repeat the price she had quoted and proposed that Zhang Dong supply her exclusively.

When Zhang Dong learned that Yang Mingyan had offered 130 yuan per cabbage, he was both surprised and delighted. He was surprised by her generosity and delighted by the prospect of making a fortune!

At this price, he could ripen a hundred large cabbages each week, which would earn him 13,000 yuan. Over a month, that would be over 50,000 yuan!

In Dongshan Village, earning 50,000 yuan a year was considered a high salary!

Looking at Yang Mingyan, Zhang Dong couldn't help but swallow hard, deeply moved by the high price.

Unbeknownst to him, his actions only made Yang Mingyan more repulsed.

Subconsciously, Yang Mingyan felt that Zhang Dong was lusting after her body!

Clenching her teeth, she began to consider whether to let the lecherous young man take advantage of her a bit more, as long as it helped her secure the exclusive right to purchase cabbages!

Yang Mingyan had always conducted business with integrity and had never shown favor to men who lusted after her beauty.

Even if they came to Dongzhou Restaurant every day, she still treated them with disdain.

But this time was different; Zhang Dong's cabbages were too important to her!

Just as Yang Mingyan was hesitating, Zhang Dong spoke up:

"President Yang, to be honest, the price is very good. However, regarding the exclusive right to purchase, I need to think about it some more."

Although Yang Mingyan had offered a high price, Zhang Dong was not rash. He needed to think carefully before deciding whether to grant her the exclusive right.

He hadn't spent all those years in college for nothing; he understood the concept of holding out for a better deal.

Hearing this, Yang Mingyan couldn't help but frown, thinking that the lecherous young man was still scheming!

She thought for a moment and decided to use a compromise to win over Zhang Dong.

"Mr. Zhang, it's understandable that you need more time to think. How about this: I'll buy this batch of cabbages at the new price. Then, Vice President Ma can take you out to relax, which might help you think more clearly."

As she spoke, she put on her trademark smile.

Her goal was very simple: if you're a lecher, I'll give you what you want.

Vice President Ma will take you to a place where you'll see things you've never seen before. Once you see the beautiful women there, you'll probably be too dazed to walk, let alone negotiate!

Hearing that Yang Mingyan would buy the fifty cabbages at the new price, Zhang Dong felt a surge of excitement. This would allow him to buy a better birthday gift for his sister!

As for whether to go out with Vice President Ma, Zhang Dong originally wanted to refuse, but he was worried that it might affect the deal, so he nodded in agreement.

"Thank you, President Yang!"

Waving her hand to indicate it was no trouble, Yang Mingyan took out her phone and called Vice President Ma.

Vice President Ma, who had done this kind of thing before, quickly understood Yang Mingyan's intentions.

After hanging up, Yang Mingyan noticed that Zhang Dong was still staring at her, and she felt a mix of shame and anger. She wanted to scold him but ultimately suppressed the urge.

Actually, Yang Mingyan had misunderstood.

Zhang Dong was just thinking about how to appropriately return the favor for the good price she had offered.

For example, he could treat her low blood sugar.

"President Yang, I have studied traditional Chinese medicine. Western medicine can't cure your low blood sugar, but traditional Chinese medicine can!"

"Oh?" Yang Mingyan was intrigued. Could this young man from the countryside really treat her?

With some doubt, she asked, "Mr. Zhang, do you know traditional Chinese medicine? How can it cure my low blood sugar?"

"Um... through massaging acupoints, especially around the pancreas. A few sessions should do the trick!" Zhang Dong said.

He wasn't lying. According to the Divine Farmer's Medical Techniques, using silver needles and pressing acupoints could have a miraculous effect, making it possible to cure low blood sugar!

Hearing this, Yang Mingyan took a deep breath, barely suppressing her urge to get angry.

This lecher, he really is lusting after my body!

"No, no need!" Yang Mingyan forced out a few words, "I think I'm fine as it is, no need to treat my low blood sugar!"

Hearing this, Zhang Dong shrugged and dropped the subject.

After receiving 6,500 yuan from Vice President Ma, Zhang Dong felt incredibly fulfilled. Now he had over 16,000 yuan in his hands!

He and his sister would never have to be poor again!

Vice President Ma was a charming person. He first treated Zhang Dong to a lavish meal, frequently toasting him.

If Zhang Dong's alcohol tolerance hadn't been good, he might have been drunk.

After the meal, Vice President Ma had the driver take them to the most luxurious club in the county... a place of red lights and alcohol!
