Seeing this, Lincoln Xie became more curious and said, "Master Zhang, Master Zhu, why? Is that guy so powerful that you are so afraid to mention anything?"
Leonard Zhu did not understand Howard Zhang's meaning, so he kept quiet and he looked at Howard Zhang.
Howard Zhang sighed and said to Lincoln Xie, "Master Xie, in fact, that guy is powerful, but not that powerful!"
The descriptive words made Lincoln Xie even more curious and puzzled. He slammed the table and said, "Master Zhang, just tell me whatever it is. I'd like to see how powerful that kid is. Our Xie family has never been afraid of a person from a small town."
Howard Zhang's eyes glimmered, and then he stated, "Master Xie, since you have promised, I will go all out and tell you the truth."
Then, Howard Zhang said, "Master Xie, that fella's name is Fade Chen. A few months ago, he appeared in our lives, I don't know where he came from. I also don't know why he has a relationship with Quin Lin."
"Later, that guy concocted some kind of Life
Elixir Wine at the retirement banquet for Mr. Wu, our former mayor of Bay City. Suddenly, he became famous among the citizens here. Countless people, from the rich and powerful, competed against each other to buy the Life Elixir Wine, but the supply was very limited. With the Life Elixir Wine, he got to know many elites in Bay City. In the whole of Bay City, you can regard him as someone of great influence."
"Isn't it just a bottle of wine? Is it really that powerful?" Lincoln Xie didn't believe it.
Hearing Howard Zhang's words, Leonard Zhu immediately realized something and nodded at Howard Zhang. Then, he immediately turned to Lincoln Xie and explained," Master Xie, the Life Elixir Wine is indeed something extraordinary. Those who have tasted it couldn't get enough of it. For the sake of the elixir, rich and influential people like Mr. Wu have developed a very good relationship with Fade Chen."
"It's also because of this, that Fade Chen has become more and more arrogant recently. He has boldly declared that he has no opponent in Bay City and no one dares to touch him. Even the business of my family and Master Zhang's family has been crunched by that kid and Quin Lin. But because of those connections, we dare not do anything to him!
Alas!"
Lincoln Xie frowned upon hearing that, "Is it really that amazing? He became the master of Bay City with just that bottle of wine?"
Howard Zhang immediately said, "Master Xie, you may not know this but the wine is really good. Moreover, Fade Chen's business is growing exponentially. Not only in Bay City, but he's ready to penetrate the surrounding urban areas, including other districts."
Lincoln Xie's brows furrowed and the muscles on his face twitched.
Howard Zhang immediately winked knowingly at Leonard Zhu.
Leonard Zhu understood and immediately continued to exaggerate, "Fade Chen boasted that within a year, his elixir would break through Bay City and occupy 80% of the market in the district capital. In three years, it will become the biggest wine company in the south. In the beginning, we all thought he was talking nonsense, but now it seems that it could really be possible with the interpersonal connections he has!"
Lincoln Xie's face darkened and his hands on the table clenched into fists.
Howard Zhang and Leonard Zhu exchanged a satisfactory smile.
The two of them knew that the Xie Family had a large business empire and involved in a lot of industries. Amongst them, Lincoln Xie's father was in charge of the alcohol business. The Xie family's beverage business occupied 70% of the market share in the district capital, an absolute market leader.
The two deliberately exaggerated the significant effects of Fade Chen's Life Elixir Wine and made up all kinds of bold stories in order to give pressure to Lincoln Xie, so that he would secretly develop hostility towards Fade Chen.
Now, looking at Lincoln Xie's expression, they knew that their plan had worked.
Sure enough, after a moment of silence, Lincoln Xie looked up at them and said, "I would really like to have a look at the so-called powerful Life Elixir Wine."
Howard Zhang had been prepared. He snapped his fingers and asked the waiter to bring him a bottle of the elixir.
Leonard Zhu took the initiative to pour Lincoln Xie a glass of the wine. When the slightly yellowish wine was poured out, a whiff of fruity fragrance filled the air. Lincoln Xie's eyebrows twitched in surprise.
"Master Xie, please!" Leonard Zhu and Howard Zhang raised their glasses for toast.
Lincoln Xie nodded and took a sip of the wine. Instantly, he felt a cooling liquid slipping down his throat all the way to his stomach. Then he felt refreshed as if all his limbs and bones had been cleansed. The tiredness of his body suddenly disappeared, and he suddenly energized.
"This wine..." Lincoln Xie's eyes lit up and then he downed the glass of wine in a go.
Subsequently, he poured himself another glass of the Life Exlixir Wine and drank it up.
Just like that, a small bottle of wine was finished in no time.
At this time, Lincoln Xie still hadn't had enough, he put the wine glass on the table and sighed, "This wine is amazing. It tastes very refreshing and delicious, and it rejuvenates the mind and strengthens the body. No wonder the rich and powerful in Bay City are so addicted to it!"
Howard Zhang and Leonard Zhu looked at each other and then sighed.
"That's right. With such amazing wine, other wine and even beverage companies won't stand a chance. I'm afraid that Fade Chen will soon take over the beverage market in Bay City."
"Not only in Bay City, but some wealthy people in the surrounding cities who heard about the wine, have also come here to buy the wine."
Then they looked at Lincoln Xie. As expected, Lincoln Xie's face changed, as if thinking about something. C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
A few seconds later, Lincoln Xie said, "Master Zhang, Master Zhu. Although this wine is amazing, it shouldn't be a problem for you two to crack the concoction with your wealth and then sell the goods to take over the market!"
What Lincoln Xie meant was to test the composition of the liquid and create a copycat.
Truly a man from a family of the wine business to have thought of this method in an instance.
Howard Zhang turned and sighed, "We have also thought of this method and have sent people to try to do it, but all had failed in the end. Later, after inquiring about it, we learned that the exclusive
formula of this elixir seemed to have come from an elusive master. The composition is very unique and can't be replicated. Fade Chen seems to be the only one who has the company's formula. So, there isn't a way!"
"Can't be cracked, only one formula!" Lincoln Xie pondered over these words.
Then, he made an excuse to go to the bathroom. He took out his mobile phone and called the elders of the family, "Dad, I am in Bay City. I have discovered a huge business. As long as our company can take down this business, we can absolutely..."
