My Apocalypse System Arrives 10 Years Early

Chapter 200: Chapter 154: I’ll Take You Guys for Something Exciting

Yao Yao smiled. ”You can just call me Xiaoyao.”

”How could I do that, Manager Yao? It must be fate that we met. Please, let me introduce our products to you. I can guarantee an absolutely fantastic price.” The female sales manager truly lived up to her reputation as a business veteran. Her thick skin was incredible. The awkwardness vanished in a flash, and she acted as if nothing had happened, pulling Yao Yao close with great familiarity, like they were old friends who hadn’t seen each other in years.

Yao Yao secretly marveled, ’Li Xiang really is incredible. If I’d known, I wouldn’t have had to go around contacting everyone myself.’

However, after her recent experiences, Yao Yao had grown as well.

For instance, she now pulled herself together and, with the cooperation of the sales manager, the two of them engaged in a lively back-and-forth negotiation. She even seemed to carry a certain commanding presence.

The main reasons were that Yao Yao could now let loose, and she felt confident.

Another subtle factor was that they had done live-fire shooting in the afternoon. They all had a blast, which helped boost their confidence.

Li Xiang understood this feeling deeply. In his past life, he had come from a poor background, which made him feel insecure whether he was studying or working. But after the Apocalypse began and he had killed a few people, the cowardice and low self-esteem ingrained in his bones completely vanished.

Perhaps it was because everyone is equal before ”truth”? The people he killed had held much higher statuses than him in times of peace, yet hadn’t they ended up lying at his feet like dogs?

The business negotiations that evening went very smoothly. Li Xiang’s team secured partnerships with seven or eight liquor distributors, obtaining very favorable contracts and placing many orders. They no longer had to worry about their future alcohol supply.

Just like with the tea, he had the suppliers deliver the goods to his house first.

With so many empty rooms, his new house would temporarily serve as a warehouse.

The three women’s business skills had also improved to a certain degree. An opportunity like tonight was something they would have never encountered in their previous jobs.

Since they started following Li Xiang, all three girls had grown a great deal in their own ways.

”Young Master Xu, thanks for tonight.” Li Xiang walked over to Xu Xuan, who had been there with them the whole time.

”Don’t mention it. It was nothing,” Xu Xuan said with a wave of his hand, signaling for Li Xiang not to worry about it.

”Want to go outside and chat?” Li Xiang gave him a look, and Xu Xuan followed him out.

Zhang Youyou was lounging lazily on the sofa, nearly asleep. Seeing them leave, she just pouted slightly and thought, ’Men... they even have to go off to whisper secrets? Who knows what kind of trouble they’re getting into.’

Of course, she didn’t follow them. Instead, she got up and went to chat with Yao Yao, Zhao Xueqing, and Lei Xiaohui. The wine suppliers had already left, and with Xu Xuan and Li Xiang gone as well, only the four women remained in the conference room.

Li Xiang and Xu Xuan went to a gazebo in the garden. Seeing that no one was around, Li Xiang took out a Golden Rattan Wood box and handed it to Xu Xuan. ”This is the thing I mentioned last time.”

Xu Xuan took it and opened it. Inside was something wrapped in gold foil. It seemed to be shaped like a small wild fruit, but he didn’t know what it was.

Li Xiang whispered, ”It’s better than the Golden Fat Spirit from before. If your grandfather is going to take it, he can only have a piece the size of a mung bean each day. Any more would be harmful rather than helpful.”

If he took too much, the Medicinal Power couldn’t be digested. It would be a waste, and it could pose some hidden dangers to his body.

That National Martial Arts Master might have a unique Magic Skill for Refinement. As for that terminally ill tycoon, he was on the verge of death anyway. Just being able to survive thanks to the stimulation of the Spiritual Medicine, to have his organs stop failing and be filled with vigorous life, was already incredible. The ”side effects” were nothing compared to a ”new life.”

”That one is for your grandfather, but I have a little something for you too.” With a flick of his hand, Li Xiang produced two Tier One Spiritual Medicines in his palm. ”These are much weaker. One for you and one for Youyou. You can eat them like little snacks.”

It was already dark, and Li Xiang’s hand had been behind his back and out of sight, so Xu Xuan didn’t notice where he had pulled them from at all.

Xu Xuan couldn’t hide his excitement. ”I get one too? Brother, you’re a true friend!”

”You’re a true friend too, helping me out so much.” Li Xiang smiled. For one, Xu Xuan had indeed helped him a lot. For another, Xu Xuan and Zhang Youyou were both people of excellent character, worth befriending.

”It’s getting late, I’m going to head out. I’ll come pick you up at nine tomorrow morning.” Having received the Spiritual Medicine, Xu Xuan was eager to find his grandfather before the old man went to sleep. Besides, he and Zhang Youyou were also keen to experience the miraculous drug for themselves.
