After reaching the county town, Xia Liu immediately asked around for the most luxurious hotel in the county and headed straight for it without pause. Longteng Hotel, the only five-star hotel within a hundred miles, stood before him. Standing at the hotel entrance, Xia Liu looked fervently ahead; he had an intuition that the oysters could be sold here! Unfortunately, he hadn't even made it through the doors when security kicked him out. It wasn't surprising, his clothes were bought in the town, which definitely weren't stylish, and he was carrying a basket on his back, no ghost would let him into a five-star hotel. But Xia Liu didn't give up. He purchased a bag at the market and changed into a new outfit, which finally convinced security to let him in reluctantly. "Sir, we have specific suppliers, so I am sorry," the hotel receptionist firmly refused Xia Liu. While looking at the two beautiful young women at the front desk, Xia Liu smiled as he explained the oysters, but the result was the same. Xia Liu understood that these two chicks weren't the chiefs; even if he praised the oysters to the skies, it would be useless. So, he asked for a private room. With over a hundred thousand in his pocket, this kind of expense was easy to handle, and if his plan succeeded, he would make even more money in the future. He ordered several dishes and, when they arrived, had the waiter take them away to be redone—naturally, he would pay for them. After a few repetitions, the waiter sensed something was off and immediately notified the manager. "Okay, got it. I'll go down and check now." Manager Huang responded briskly as she hung up the office phone and headed out the door. Based on the waiter's description, Huang Xue instantly pegged Xia Liu as a troublemaker; normal people wouldn't just throw away their food and still agree to pay for it. In the private room, Xia Liu quietly calculated his upcoming dialogue; with his sharp hearing, he had already heard the waiter reporting to the manager. It was crucial for him to secure this target! "Miss, bring me a bottle of wine that costs about ten thousand." Although he didn't know whether the manager was male or female, he still had to keep up appearances. Looking at Xia Liu's careless smile, the waitress was so nervous she didn't dare to make a move. She too thought Xia Liu was here to cause trouble. If she brought out a bottle of wine that cost thousands, she might end up paying for it herself. ... Xia Liu gave a strained smile and pulled out his card, "The PIN is six eights. Please settle my bill for what I've had, and don't forget to bring that bottle of wine." This time, the young woman was even more shocked. Her trembling hands took the card; she didn't dare go against the customer's wishes, so she hurried out. Regardless, she needed to see if there was money in the account. If there was, the hotel couldn't afford to offend such a customer. No sooner had the waitress left than the door to the private room was swung open. This time it was Xia Liu who was taken aback. He saw a woman walk in, the kind that made one's mouth water at a single glance, with her delicate short hair and the way her lips moved in an incredibly alluring manner. Her OL-style short suit also exposed her legs to the air, a fragrant scent wafting in. *gulp…* Xia Liu forcefully swallowed his saliva a few times; Huang Xue's first impression on him was of a seductive fairy, a national calamity, and that strong urge he felt was the best proof. "Sir, I am the manager of the hotel. I hope I'm not disturbing you?" Initially very angry, Huang Xue still kept a pleasant smile on her face and spoke in a gentle voice for the sake of the hotel's image. This wonderful voice pulled Xia Liu out of his daydreams, "No, no, please take a seat." Huang Xue did not sit down but continued to smile and asked, "Sir, are you dissatisfied with the hotel's cuisine?" "No, I've been quite satisfied with everything." "Then according to what you're saying, you're here to cause trouble?" Huang Xue's face suddenly turned grave, and if Xia Liu nodded, she would make him pay a painful price. "Manager, please don't be rash, I'm just a farmer, how could I possibly have the audacity to cause trouble here?" Xia Liu let out a forced laugh, feeling somewhat anxious inside. Why hasn't that waiter come back yet? If he offended this fairy before him, he could kiss this deal goodbye. "A farmer?" Huang Xue was somewhat speechless. If he was just an ordinary farmer, how could he possibly come to such a place, and even resort to that kind of crude method to stir up trouble? "Yes, yes, I'm from Osmanthus Village in Pinglan Town, I came here today mainly to..." Thump, thump, thump... Just as Xia Liu was busy trying to explain, a series of knocks interrupted him. Turning to look, it was that waiter, coming in with a bottle of high-level red wine. "Xiaohua, what's this?" Huang Xue was a bit confused. She had clearly instructed this waiter to keep an eye on Xia Liu, and not to serve any more items. Yet here she was, bringing in a bottle of red wine from the store worth over ten thousand yuan. What on earth was going on? "Manager, this gentleman has just settled the bill, and he also wants a bottle of red wine that costs over ten thousand yuan," Xiaohua said, somewhat excited. The store had a clear reward system; if someone managed to sell a bottle of expensive wine, they would get a bonus of a thousand yuan. "Settled the bill?" Huang Xue's brows furrowed tightly; she was once again baffled. What exactly was this young man playing at? Xia Liu smiled without saying a word, this was precisely the effect he wanted; now, this fairy would sit down and talk. Huang Xue took the red wine, had the waiter leave first, then she promptly apologized to Xia Liu and even knocked two thousand yuan off the price of the wine, as a gesture of sincerity for her earlier behavior. Xia Liu refused Huang Xue's offer, opened the red wine, and invited her to sit down. He then laid out the purpose of his visit. Upon learning Xia Liu's purpose, Huang Xue became even more puzzled. Damn, a farmer pushing his products, intentionally spilling the food to get an opportunity to meet with her, and then asking for a bottle of wine worth over ten thousand yuan, was all for just one chance. This was absolutely incredible. Huang Xue was very curious about Xia Liu's products and asked him to introduce them. Xia Liu was not vague about it at all, reaching under the table, he took out several oysters from a bag. "Manager Huang, these are pure wild oysters, I wonder if your establishment might be interested?" "Wild?" Huang Xue was familiar with this item. J County was close to the coastline, and many tourists would order oysters when visiting. Unfortunately, wild oysters were almost non-existent now. The word 'wild' made her sensitive. Xia Liu nodded, realizing from Huang Xue's expression that there was a chance. "You tell me these large oysters are wild, do you take me for a fool?" Huang Xue's face was lined with frustration. She had been a manager for some years, overseeing the kitchen among other things, so with her extensive experience with raw ingredients, after observing for a while, she was convinced that the oysters Xia Liu brought were farmed and had been heavily fed, otherwise how could they be so large. "Manager Huang, how about we make a bet? If these oysters are wild, you will purchase my goods in large quantities." "Heh, if they truly are wild, not only will I take your goods, but I will also urge you. As for the price, not less than fifty yuan per half kilogram!"
