Chapter 83

The nickname of the childhood friend that Monkey introduced to Ye Chenfeng was Li Fatzi. As the name suggests, anyone associated with the term "fat" would definitely have a physique that could accommodate a hundred rivers.

Monkey originally wanted to meet Li Fatzi at a restaurant, but Li Fatzi disagreed over the phone, insisting on going to the Chundong Teahouse in Tianhai.

The Chundong Teahouse is very famous in Tianhai. Its interior is decorated in an ancient and elegant style, with a top-notch environment. The tea used is of the highest quality. If this teahouse were to be opened in ancient times, it would definitely be a place where literati and scholars would gather to express their "artistic" sentiments.

However, the Chundong Teahouse is not a place for ordinary people to enter. It is said that even the most ordinary cup of tea costs more than 500 yuan! Not to mention the top-tier teas. The guests who come to the Chundong Teahouse are usually wealthy businessmen with more money than they know what to do with. They occasionally come here to sit, drink a cup of top-tier fragrant tea, and enjoy the refined environment of literati, hoping to remove some of the stench of money from their bodies.

When Monkey and Ye Chenfeng arrived at the Chundong Teahouse, Li Fatzi was already waiting in an elegant room, holding a teacup in his thick hand and occasionally sipping it lightly.

"Li Fatzi, it's been over a year since we last met. How come you've developed a taste for this kind of place?" Monkey felt uneasy as soon as he stepped into the Chundong Teahouse. It was too damn quiet, like a place for the elderly to enjoy their twilight years!

Li Fatzi gave Monkey a disdainful look and said in a refined manner, "Ignorant, ignorant!" As he spoke, Li Fatzi had the air of someone who was the only sober person in a world of drunkards.

"Li Fatzi, stop putting on airs in front of me." Monkey was not impressed by Li Fatzi and quickly introduced him, "Li Fatzi, this is my boss, Ye Chenfeng. You should call him boss too from now on!"

Li Fatzi put down his teacup and sized up Ye Chenfeng, who was standing next to Monkey. At the same time, Ye Chenfeng was also sizing up Li Fatzi.

With Ye Chenfeng's keen observational skills, he knew that Monkey's childhood friend was not as simple as he appeared. No one in business is easy to fool; otherwise, they would have gone home to farm long ago.

"Monkey, don't you know me? I usually like to put on airs. Who can blame me for not having the right stuff?" Li Fatzi's face jiggled as he spoke, then he gestured for Ye Chenfeng and Monkey to sit down.

"Li Fatzi, it's been over a year since we last met, and you seem to be developing a pregnant woman's figure! This time I came to you because I have a great opportunity for you. Since we are childhood friends, I thought of you first." Monkey poured a cup of tea for himself and Ye Chenfeng, then drank it all in one gulp without tasting it at all.

Li Fatzi frowned in pain and said, "What a waste, what a waste. Monkey, do you know how much this tea costs per pot? Giving such good tea to someone like you is like playing the lute to a cow!"

Ye Chenfeng picked up the teacup in front of him and sipped it lightly. The tea was fragrant and of the highest quality, sliding down his throat and into his stomach, leaving a refreshing feeling.

"Indeed, it is top-grade West Lake Longjing." Ye Chenfeng praised it involuntarily.

Li Fatzi's face, covered in fat, finally showed a smile. "Monkey, your boss is indeed worthy of being your boss. Giving him this tea is not a waste at all!"

"Monkey, tell me what you want this time. I heard you were kicked out of the Wang family. You coming to me can't be a good thing, right?" Li Fatzi continued.

Ye Chenfeng took over, "Monkey is just the intermediary. The one who really wants to find you is me. The matter is like this..."

Ye Chenfeng quickly explained the details of the Quick Beauty product. Li Fatzi was extremely excited. If Quick Beauty really had the effects Ye Chenfeng described—removing brown spots and other blemishes from women's faces after a week of use, and providing long-term beauty and health benefits with no side effects—then, with Li Fatzi's years of business experience, this beauty product would definitely cause a sensation in China, and even worldwide.

"Brother Ye, are you serious? Does Quick Beauty really have the effects you described?" Li Fatzi was no longer as unfamiliar with Ye Chenfeng. Although he didn't call him "boss" like Monkey, he directly called him "Brother Ye."

Ye Chenfeng took out the Quick Beauty sample he had already prepared and said, "This is a sample. You can take it home and try it. Contact me after a week."

Ye Chenfeng was not worried that Li Fatzi would use modern technology to analyze the components of Quick Beauty. After all, Quick Beauty was a beauty product from 500 years in the future, and current technology could not fully analyze all its components.

Li Fatzi eagerly took the Quick Beauty sample from Ye Chenfeng. His family's business was not limited to just one pharmaceutical factory, and the Li family had more than just him. If Li Fatzi wanted to become the next head of the Li family, he had to stand out among his peers.

The appearance of Quick Beauty gave Li Fatzi hope. If Quick Beauty's effects were as Ye Chenfeng described, he would definitely stand out among his peers in the Li family.

Li Fatzi personally poured a cup of West Lake Longjing for Ye Chenfeng. After a bit of conversation, the two became more familiar with each other.

Although Ye Chenfeng could sense that Li Fatzi had the shrewdness of a businessman, there was also a touch of sincerity in his shrewdness. Ye Chenfeng reluctantly accepted Li Fatzi.

"What's the matter? Li Fatzi, not showing off anymore? No matter how much you show off, you're still just a fat show-off." Monkey continued to drink the top-grade West Lake Longjing in large gulps, as if it were just plain water, occasionally muttering, "This tea isn't even as good as carbonated drinks!"

This really made Li Fatzi furious, but since they had grown up together, and Li Fatzi had moved away later, they rarely contacted each other, so they didn't hold grudges over such things.

Li Fatzi and Ye Chenfeng talked about Quick Beauty for over an hour. Li Fatzi was really interested in the product and wished he could find out all the components of Quick Beauty, but he was a reasonable person, and this thought only flashed through his mind before he dismissed it.

Monkey, on the other hand, was left out. By the time Li Fatzi realized it, Monkey had already finished three pots of top-grade West Lake Longjing, leaving Li Fatzi speechless. He swore he would never come to the Chundong Teahouse to put on airs again, for fear that he would go bankrupt from Monkey's tea drinking.
