The two looked at each other for a while. Peng Zhou's slightly angry expression made his cheeks tremble.
"Hmph, just say it, what do you want?" He tried to make his voice sound normal, but Peng Zhou had lost his previous assertiveness.
Liu Yifeng felt he had won. He wanted to completely subdue this person, making him afraid to act presumptuously towards him in the future and to be respectful whenever he saw him.
He had indulged Peng Zhou before because he thought he had some influence in public. If they became partners, it might even make other merchants revere him. Now, it was useless, and he had even dragged himself into hell.
Since Peng Zhou didn't care about their partnership, he didn't need to give him any more face.
However, he was still a person of principle. During their cooperation, the transportation of vegetables had been very normal, even identical to that of other merchants.
But it seemed Peng Zhou was unappreciative and hadn't realized the reason behind his actions. Instead, he kept thinking Liu Yifeng was targeting him.
"Brother Peng, I've never said what I wanted. You've always misunderstood the situation. This matter was clearly caused by you, which made many customers panic. So, you should provide an explanation."
Although it hadn't caused Liu Yifeng much trouble, it had shaken their morale. He still hoped Peng Zhou would reveal the real reason for the incident.
"Hmph, I told you, what about that miracle elixir? Why aren't you giving it to me?" Peng Zhou was really persistent.
Liu Yifeng felt speechless. "You must have watched the new clarification video. You should understand that this was not something I planned. It just happened. Perhaps heaven didn't want you involved in this project because your personal greed is too strong."
Liu Yifeng's tone was calm, but to the listener, it didn't sound peaceful at all.
"If you had told me earlier that this pill had such great efficacy, there wouldn't have been so many problems." It was the last moment, and he still refused to admit it.
Liu Yifeng truly felt Peng Zhou was perfect for being a mole; his mouth was quite stubborn. "I've already told you clearly. If President Peng doesn't believe me, you can find someone to try it. You thought I was cursing you, so you stopped contacting me. Only when you saw the efficacy of my medicine did you pester me again. Don't you think you regretted it back then? Why can't you admit it!"
In the end, Liu Yifeng laughed at himself. He suddenly felt Peng Zhou was very feminine, dawdling about things and not daring to admit what he had said. He truly lacked any manliness.
"......"
Liu Yifeng had slapped Peng Zhou so hard that he was utterly ashamed, unable to think of any words to refute.
"Since that's the case, I won't bother you anymore. Delete all those files." Finally, he let out a long sigh, as if he had made a great decision, and said to Liu Yifeng.
It was not easy to hear Peng Zhou say this. Liu Yifeng nodded helplessly.
"Since you've asked, I will naturally agree, but..."
Liu Yifeng felt that since Peng Zhou could say this, he wouldn't let him off so easily. His company had not had a peaceful time during this period.
"But what?"
Peng Zhou frowned directly. He felt he had already humbled himself, and this person dared to make further demands.
Now, he was indeed angry but afraid to speak. Although he was curious about what other conditions he might propose, he felt his leverage was more important.
"But we can't sell our vegetables to you at the current price anymore. Since President Peng is so capable of making money, he won't be bothered by a few dollars more or less."
Liu Yifeng had thought of this method long ago and was waiting for Peng Zhou to approach him. He would definitely propose the conditions he had been thinking about for a long time on such a good opportunity.
"Alright." Peng Zhou agreed readily. It seemed he truly didn't care about the money.
"However, you also have to promise me to delete any information you have about me." Peng Zhou finally regained his former seriousness at this point.
Liu Yifeng was also easy to talk to. "It's a deal."
The farce with Peng Zhou was finally resolved. He would definitely prioritize the conditions Liu Yifeng proposed in the future.
"Is it resolved?" Lu Fei had just gone to observe the recent vegetable market and coincidentally met Liu Yifeng, who was also returning.
Looking at his triumphant expression, it seemed the matter had been handled.
"Of course. Having leverage is when one is most confident. This Peng Zhou is really troublesome. If it weren't for Tong Tong's help, I wouldn't have known how to deal with him."
Lu Fei gave a thumbs-up. "You can solve any difficult problem. That's amazing. However, I just went to the market to take a look. Our vegetable production can keep up. If we have more cooperating merchants, we can still supply them."
"Very good. Let's do as you said and increase the number of cooperating merchants. By the way, the price for Peng Zhou has doubled; that was the condition we exchanged just now."
Lu Fei's eyes widened in shock. He truly didn't expect Liu Yifeng's negotiation skills to be so impressive.
Because Peng Zhou was still stubborn and hadn't mentioned clarifying the matter, Liu Yifeng didn't pursue it further as there was no loss.
In any case, this was a harsh lesson for Peng Zhou, and he wouldn't dare to do anything excessive to him next time, especially with the leverage he held, which could be obtained at any time.
A sly smile appeared on Liu Yifeng's lips. Although the files were deleted in front of him, it was a matter of Tong Tong's fingers to restore them.
As time passed, Zhang Jin's hotel had already begun its topping-out ceremony. Since Liu Yifeng was also one of the investors, he was invited to attend the ceremony.
"Mr. Zhang, long time no see. It's truly built very quickly."
Looking at the hotel that was gradually taking shape before him, Liu Yifeng was very satisfied. Including the agritainment below the hotel, the future business prospects were also evident.
Many people had come to visit today. Since it was being decorated and built simultaneously, although it was expensive, it saved a lot of time.
This was why Liu Yifeng saw the scene before him. As long as the topping-out ceremony was completed, it could essentially open for business.
"It's not good, it's not good."
