Chapter 293 - Chapter 293: Chapter 293: The Medicine Material Business (2/2)
“Sir, are you here to have a meal or to drink tea?”
This fellow was obviously too enthusiastic, especially since the restaurant’s notice board clearly stated that today they only had spiced noodle soup, yet he even asked Chen Yu whether he wanted a meal or tea.
Chen Yu didn’t bother with that and directly took out an invitation from his pocket.
“I’m here to meet friends!”
Upon hearing this, the people at the scene breathed a sigh of relief and shifted their gaze elsewhere.
Soon after, a middle-aged man slowly descended from the second floor.
“You must be Mr. Chen! I’ve long heard of your great reputation, and today I finally see you in person!”
The middle-aged man appeared extremely enthusiastic; he went straight up to Chen Yu and embraced him, but no sooner had their bodies touched than Chen Yu felt a hard object pressing against his waist.
It was a small automatic weapon—if the other party pulled the trigger, Chen Yu would be dead.
“Boss Niu, what is this supposed to mean?”
Boss Niu chuckled, “It’s nothing personal, I just felt that Mr. Chen’s arrival was so timely that I couldn’t help but be suspicious! I hope Mr. Chen understands.”
While speaking, Boss Niu had frisked Chen Yu from top to bottom, only retracting the automatic weapon in his hand after making sure Chen Yu had nothing else on him.
Chen Yu deliberately made an angry face, “Boss Niu, this is a bit much, don’t you think? I came here for business, recommended by someone, and you treat me like this. If that’s the case, then our deal is off.”
As his words fell, Chen Yu walked out without looking back.
But just as he reached the door, Boss Niu hurried after him.
“Mr. Chen, please don’t be angry. We all have lived through perilous times; we are very cautious in everything we do. Moreover, the medicinal herbs we have were smuggled over from Cambodia, which the relevant departments would not approve of.”
Chen Yu snorted, “I can understand that, but your actions just now were too much. The price we agreed upon earlier has to be discounted by ten percent.”
These words vividly displayed the image of a businessman looking to profit.
At the same time, they completely lowered Boss Niu’s guard.
“Mr. Chen, we can negotiate the price. As long as you can take all the goods I have, not to mention a ten percent discount, I am willing to give you half off.”
“Where is the merchandise?” Chen Yu asked with an intentionally cold demeanor.
Without saying much, Boss Niu led Chen Yu to the back courtyard and lifted up a large tarp.
Varieties of medicinal herbs piled up like mountains, their fragrance wafting through the air, momentarily making Chen Yu’s spirit vibrate.
Among them were some rare medicinal materials, and the quantities were extremely vast.
Actually, if we get right down to it, there wasn’t anything special about these herbs, it was only their channel of distribution that was improper.
No one could guarantee that these herbs weren’t mixed with other miscellaneous substances.
