Cultivation: I Have Studied Abroad in the Modern World

Nightfall descends, as the head chef and his team have already departed.

Zheng Fa and his three companions move a few more recliners and lie side by side in the courtyard.

The ecological environment here is excellent.

The weather today is clear and sunny, stars twinkle in the night sky, and the scent of grass and trees wafts through the air.

A gentle breeze blows from the mountainside, and their conversation is aimless but full of contentment.

“Their condition is to purchase daily, and I’ve sent you their price offer,” Old Man Bai turns his head to speak to Zheng Fa.

Zheng Fa nods; he has seen the other party’s offer as well.

He has some understanding of market prices—during his three years of high school, he would always wander around the vegetable market on weekends, buying things like roast chicken.

But the opponent’s bid is a bit too generous.

The same tomatoes, which might cost a few yuan per jin at the market, are priced at several hundred on this price list, an increase of more than a hundred times.

And this is considered a low increase.

Some vegetables have even more outrageous mark-ups.

Seeing Zheng Fa silent, Old Man Bai seems to think he feels the offer is too low and explains, “This should be their most sincere bid.”

“Hmm?

They’re this sincere from the start?”

This seems to go against the normal routine of doing business…

“It’s because of…” Old Man Bai nudges his chin towards Tang Lingwu next to Zheng Fa.

Tang Lingwu smiles shyly, “I asked my dad about the restaurant’s turnover and food costs, and I checked their supply channels.

After some calculations, it seems that they are not undercutting us.”

“This… shouldn’t it be a trade secret?”

Zheng Fa is momentarily dumbfounded.

This is practically stripping the other party bare.

“Many times, the word ‘secret’…” Old Man Bai reflects upon hearing this, “is just another expression for not being qualified enough.”
