After regaining his senses, Cao Zhen cursed Huo Longquan under his breath, then caught up with Qin Chaoyang as fast as he could: "Boss Qin, don't listen to that idiot Huo Longquan's one-sided story. How could my breakfast shop possibly be sold for four thousand yuan?"

Huo Longquan's face darkened upon hearing this, but he dared not refute it.

After all, his careless remarks just now ruined Cao Zhen's plans.

Qin Chaoyang turned around, looked at Huo Longquan, and smiled: "Boss Cao, Huo Longquan and Huo Zhenzhong are your business partners now. How can you call them brain-dead?"

"Exactly, they're just idiots at best," Wang Xiaoli added.

Huo Longquan: "..."

Huo Zhenzhong: "..."

The brothers really wanted to slap Wang Xiaoli.

But for some reason, I just don't dare to take that step.

Cao Zhen looked completely bewildered: "Boss Qin, what do you mean by that? How did I become Huo Longquan's business partner?"

Clearly, in his view, the matter of him, Huo Zhenzhong, Huo Longquan, and Zhuang Biyan planning to acquire Hongxing Restaurant is still a secret at this stage, and outsiders cannot possibly know about it.

"It doesn't mean anything, you know it in your heart." Qin Chaoyang replied seriously, "Boss Cao, since a boss was only willing to pay four thousand to buy your breakfast shop before, there is absolutely no way I would pay five thousand."

"Because I'm not a sucker, nor am I stupid and rich."

"No way... you actually believed that idiot Huo Longquan?" Cao Zhen was on the verge of tears. "How about this? I'll reduce it by two hundred, four thousand eight is fine, right?"

"Four thousand two at most," Qin Chaoyang countered.

"Four thousand five hundred is the lowest price I can offer." Cao Zhen clenched his fist. "I didn't sell to that boss in Quanzhou for this price either. If you're not willing to accept it, then I'll have to sell it to someone else."

"Okay!" Qin Chaoyang readily agreed, then turned to Huo Longquan: "Brother, thanks! Thank you for cutting the price down by five hundred today. I'll treat you to drinks another day."

"You...you..." Huo Longquan was so angry that he couldn't speak.

Huo Zhenzhong and Cao Zhen were also somewhat embarrassed, and they were even more surprised that Qin Chaoyang would be so despicable as to sow discord in front of them.

Even knowing Qin Chaoyang's thoughts, they dared not say another word.

I'm afraid that if I say too much, I'll end up losing another 500, which would be a huge loss.

"Hahaha..." Qin Chaoyang laughed loudly as he watched Huo Zhenzhong and Huo Longquan's embarrassed expressions.

Wang Xiaoli and Li Mei also had teasing expressions on their faces.

Seeing that they shouldn't stay there any longer, they exchanged a glance and then pulled Qin Chaoyang toward the breakfast shop by the Dayu River.

After the three of them disappeared, Cao Zhen couldn't help but question Huo Longquan: "What the hell do you mean? Did you come here on purpose to mess with me today?"

"I didn't mean to mess with you, I just wanted to make fun of Qin Chaoyang. Who knew I'd end up shooting myself in the foot?" Huo Longquan explained with an embarrassed laugh.

"Cao Zhen, this matter can't really be entirely blamed on Longquan. After all, we really didn't know that Qin Chaoyang hadn't signed a contract with you," Huo Zhenzhong added.

The implication is that a contract has been signed.

Then Qin Chaoyang would have no way to back out.

But in reality, Qin Chaoyang is even more cunning than a monkey.

In the end, not only did Cao Zhen suffer a loss, but they also suffered in silence.

"Does signing a contract give you the right to spout nonsense?" Cao Zhen sighed. "Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's hurry up and find Zhuang Biyan. Hopefully, he won't be waiting too long at the Red Star Restaurant."

"Probably not, I know this kid well." Huo Zhenzhong led the way and got into the Santana.

Huo Longquan and Cao Zhenlian followed behind.

Soon, it disappeared down the road along with the speeding Santana.

……

After returning to the breakfast shop.

After finishing his work, Qin Chaoyang saw that it was still early, so he said to Wang Xiaoli and Li Mei, "I haven't been home for a long time, and I want to go home and visit today."

"You two can handle things at the shop."

"Okay!" Wang Xiaoli nodded.

Li Mei didn't have any objections.

After all, they own shares in the breakfast shop.

"Then I'll be going now." Qin Chaoyang walked quickly towards the main gate.

"Chaoyang, wait a minute." Tang Shuang chased after him from the kitchen.

"What's wrong?" Qin Chaoyang turned to look at Tang Shuang.

"I also want to go back and take a look. Can we go together?" Tang Shuang replied softly.

After all, breakfast shops only have business in the morning; after noon, no one comes to eat soup noodles anymore.

Going back to check won't disrupt anything at the breakfast shop.

"Of course." Qin Chaoyang smiled.

"Then I'll go pack my things." Tang Shuang turned and ran towards her bedroom.

A moment later, he came out carrying a bundle on his back.

Qin Chaoyang glanced at the sky before leading the way toward the supply and marketing cooperative.

The reason for going to the supply and marketing cooperative was clearly to buy things.

After all, I haven't been home for a long time. If I don't buy something to appease my younger sister, she'll probably start crying and making a fuss.

Oh, and he also needs to buy some daily necessities like oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, and tea for the house.

Even if his mother and sister ate very little, he couldn't turn a blind eye.

Around four o'clock in the afternoon, Qin Chaoyang appeared at the threshing ground in front of his house, carrying a load of daily necessities.

Just then, Qin Chaolu, Qin Chaoyang's younger sister, came home from school. Seeing him return, she cheered and rushed to greet him, "Brother, why did you buy so many things today?"

"Of course it's for home use!" Qin Chaoyang put down his load and took out a bag of milk candy and some fried dough twists from the vegetable basket, handing them to Qin Chaolu.

"Thank you, brother." Qin Chaolu was overjoyed and ran into her bedroom with the fried dough twist and milk candy in her arms.

Qin Chaoyang followed behind, carrying the load on his shoulder.

He only realized this when he entered the main room.

There are guests at home.

After nearly a month of recuperation, Mother Zhao Mudan...

He was not lying in bed at this time, but sitting in a chair.

Seeing this, Qin Chaoyang immediately put down his load and went over: "Mom, your leg isn't fully healed yet, why are you getting out of bed?"

"I'm just getting out of bed and moving around a bit. The doctor said I can't stay in bed all the time." Zhao Mudan rolled her eyes at Qin Chaoyang. "By the way, let me introduce you. This is your distant cousin, Xu Yi."

"He came here today wanting us to act as matchmakers for him."

"Another matchmaking session!" Qin Chaoyang thought to himself, his head aching.

But outwardly, he dared not speak carelessly. Instead, he turned to look at Xu Yi, the distant cousin his mother had mentioned: "Uncle, how old are you today? What do you do for a living?"

"I'm thirty-nine this year, and I work odd jobs at a coal mine in the city," Xu Yi replied with an awkward smile, his pimple-covered face showing a somewhat unnatural expression.

This immediately caught Qin Chaoyang's attention.

To prevent Xu Yi from deceiving him.

They even used a virtual pop-up window to view Xu Yi's personal information.
