Chapter 132 Big Deal Closed
He didn't know why Ouyang Tian would show such an expression in front of Ye Feng, as if he had seen a ghost.
"Young Master Ouyang," Zhang Lizhuo frowned slightly, "Are you alright?"
Ouyang Tian swallowed hard, his voice strained as if squeezed out from between his teeth.
"No...it's nothing."
Ye Feng looked at Ouyang Tian, a slight smile playing on his lips, revealing a smile that Ouyang Tian least wanted to see.
Ouyang Tian was terrified!
This afternoon in the Taoist temple's production workshop.
The most humiliating moment of his life flashed before his eyes again.
His grandfather told him to call Ye Feng "Grandpa".
He cried out under pressure!
That damned Ye Feng agreed too.
He even called him "my dear grandson"!
Now Ye Feng wants to make Zhang Lizhu call him "Grandpa" again in front of him.
Ouyang Tian had only one thought in his mind.
Finished!
It's completely over!
But Ye Feng didn't say anything, he just smiled faintly.
"Young Master Ouyang, we meet again."
Ouyang Tian was stunned for a moment.
His heart was beating even faster.
It was like the calm before the storm.
However, he was glad that Ye Feng hadn't said anything.
She was actually a little grateful to Ye Feng for showing mercy.
Seeing the subtle atmosphere between the two, Zhang Lizhuo couldn't help but ask a question.
"You...know each other?"
"I know him," Ye Feng said.
"I don't know him," Ouyang Tian said.
The two people spoke at the same time, but said different things.
Zhang Lizhuo's eye twitched, and he sneered inwardly.
Having served as an inspector for so many years, he has seen all kinds of people and experienced all kinds of things.
Ouyang Tian's expression and Ye Feng's tone.
He could tell at a glance that there was a story between the two of them.
And it wasn't a pleasant story.
It seems that this young master Ouyang suffered a great loss at the hands of young brother Ye Feng.
"Alright, whether we know each other or not, it's my treat today. Come on, let's have a drink first."
Ouyang Tian picked up his wine glass, his hand still trembling slightly. He tilted his head back and drank it all in one gulp, coughing twice as he choked.
Zhang Lizhuo put down his wine glass and got to the point.
"Young Master Ouyang, let's talk about the puppets. Recently, strange beasts have been active in the southern part of Shanhe Prefecture, and Jiangcheng and Haicheng have both suffered large-scale beast tides."
"The north is not peaceful either; several garrisons have reported that they need reinforcements."
"Our Shanhe Prefecture has limited military strength, so we can only try to purchase a batch of war puppets and distribute them to various cities."
Ouyang Tian glanced at Ye Feng and then quickly looked away.
He took a deep breath to make his voice sound normal.
"How many does Inspector Zhang want?"
How many?
Ouyang Tian frowned.
The Taoist Academy's latest war puppets are very useful and sell very well; orders from several prefectures are already booked until next year.
Zhang Lizhuo's opening question was, "How many?" What does that mean?
Ye Feng spoke up.
"Young Master Ouyang, what is the academy's current production capacity? With the new production method, monthly production capacity will increase at least several times, and costs will decrease by 30%."
"I think it would be better to prioritize selling the extra production to Shanhe Prefecture?"
"These are powerful security tools; the people of Shanhe Prefecture need them," Ye Feng said calmly.
"Production capacity... is still ramping up. Currently, we can produce 100 heavy-armored golems, 300 wolf-type golems, and 500 bird-type golems per month."
Ouyang Tian said somewhat guiltily.
"So little?" Ye Feng shook his head, his tone professional.
"Jiangcheng alone needs at least two hundred heavy-armored golems, five hundred wolf-type golems, and one thousand bird-type golems. Adding the other garrison cities, this number will at least triple."
Ouyang Tian fell silent, his mind conflicted. On one hand, he genuinely didn't want to deal with Ye Feng.
But you've asked for half a year's worth of the Taoist academy's production in one go!
However, considering how much his grandfather valued Ye Feng, and the fact that Ye Feng was also the creator of the new production method, he was still disappointed.
Giving Ye Feng this face isn't out of the question!
"no problem!"
Zhang Lizhuo watched this scene from the side, and a slight smile secretly crept onto his lips.
He didn't know what had happened between Ye Feng and Ouyang Tian.
But he knew that Ye Feng was trying to get him the best possible deal.
"Thank you very much, Young Master Ouyang!"
"What about the price?" Zhang Lizhuo asked at the opportune moment.
"Look, we're buying in such large quantities, shouldn't we get a discount?"
Ouyang Tian's lips twitched.
He glanced at Ye Feng, then at Zhang Lizhuo, his heart bleeding.
"10% off".
"20% off".
"85% off. I can't go any lower." Ouyang Tian's voice carried a hint of pleading.
Zhang Lizhuo turned to look at Ye Feng.
Ye Feng nodded slightly.
"Deal," Zhang Lizhuo said with a smile.
"Young Master Ouyang, it's a pleasure doing business with you."
Ouyang Tian extended his hand and shook hands with Zhang Lizhuo.
He forced a smile that looked more like a grimace.
But tears were flowing in his heart.
He tolerated being forced by his grandfather to call Ye Feng "Grandpa".
Now Ye Feng is forcing him to lower the price again, and he's putting up with it.
Who told Ye Feng to know everything?
However, if this deal goes through, the Taoist temple will make a lot of money. Grandpa probably won't scold him, right?
Ye Feng looked at Ouyang Tian's frustrated expression and a slight smile appeared on his lips. This meal was worthwhile.
After a few rounds of drinks, Zhang Lizhuo finally couldn't hold back any longer.
"Brother Ye, what exactly is your relationship with Young Master Ouyang? He seems quite afraid of you?"
Ye Feng smiled and said, "It's nothing. It's just that this afternoon at the Taoist academy, his grandfather asked me to teach him weapon crafting."
"His grandfather? Dean Ouyang?"
"Yes. Dean Ouyang calls me 'little friend'."
Ouyang Tian suddenly stood up, his face ashen.
"Inspector Zhang! I suddenly remembered I have some things to take care of at home. I have to go now!"
After he finished speaking, before Zhang Lizhuo could react, he rushed out of the private room as if he were fleeing.
Zhang Lizhuo looked at the wide-open door, then turned to look at Ye Feng.
"Brother Ye, what did you do to him?"
Ye Feng picked up his wine glass and took a sip.
"It's nothing. I just taught him a little about how to be a good person."
Zhang Lizhuo looked at Ye Feng's innocent face and couldn't help but shiver.
He recalled the scene in front of the monument at Nanshan in Jiangcheng, where Ye Feng chopped off the head of the blue dragon with a single stroke.
He recalled Ye Feng's tone when he told him, "This is a gift for Brother Zhang, not for Inspector Shi."
This young man looks like the boy next door when he smiles.
They are ruthless in their actions and meticulous in their speech.
You can offend anyone, but you must not offend him.
"Come on, let's drink!" Zhang Lizhuo raised his glass, smiling broadly.
"Brother Ye, I really need to thank you for helping me secure this big order at such a favorable price."
"Brother Zhang, you're too kind."
The two clinked glasses.
Outside the window, the city of Shanhefu is ablaze with lights at night.
Looking out at the myriad lights of the city, Ye Feng pondered whether he should bring the Daoist Academy to build a puppet production base in Jiangcheng.
Ouyang Tian stumbled out of the Taoist temple and glanced back in the direction of Tianxiang Tower.
He's never been so humiliated in his life!
He never wanted to see Ye Feng again in his life.
"Fortunately, Ye Feng isn't too bad; at least he saved face for himself and didn't reveal what happened."
However, he knew that he would see Ye Feng again.
Grandpa said he would go to Jiangcheng to see the city after the performance review meeting.
He'll definitely have to go with them then. The thought of seeing Ye Feng again is daunting.
He couldn't stop his tears from falling when he had to call him by that name he didn't want to use at all.
