1Lao Hu's culinary skills were indeed quite good, especially the lamb leg grilled from the Secret Seasoning mixed with Wu Tie's stew. Xiong Baiwan, this super glutton, was subdued on the spot and half of the lamb leg was taken by him alone.
The vegetables and fruits that Yang Fann gave Lao Hu, as well as the Secret Seasoning, were only enough for one meal. Lao Hu still wanted to ask Yang Fann for the Secret Seasoning.
Lao Hu came from a distinguished family of traditional Chinese medicine, and knew the importance of a secret recipe. His family had a secret recipe for treating sores and carbuncles, and it couldn't be said to be a panacea, but it could at least achieve a 95% effective rate. With this recipe alone, even if he couldn't cure any other diseases, he would still be able to live a rich life without worrying about food or drinks.
From Lao Hu's point of view, whether it was the secret medicine made by Yang Fann or the Secret Seasoning that he took out when cooking, both belonged to Yang Fann's exclusive secret recipe. Thus, he didn't even ask about them, in case he violated Yang Fann's taboo.
The reason why Yang Fann liked to eat at Lao Hu's restaurant and often brought things for Lao Hu to cook himself was because he had his eyes on Lao Hu.
After eating their fill, Yang Fann took out a few mineral water bottles from his backpack. They were filled with the bright red juice of Spatial Watermelon. Including Lao Hu, each of them gave out a bottle to let everyone eat and chat at the same time.
Yang Fann's Space of Jade Pendant was indeed worthy of being called a treasure, and Spirit Spring s in the spatial space were even more of a treasure. Not only were the vegetables and fruits grown from Spirit Spring s' water excellent in taste and rich in nutrition, they would not get fat after eating and might not even get bloated.
After chatting for a while, Yang Fann realized that Xiong Baiwan's real name wasn't Xiong Baiwan, but Xiong Lang instead. It was just that this guy had a business mind when he was young, so he was familiar with Xiong Baiwan.
"Yang Fann, you brat, as expected of a landlord, the things you grow are delicious. How about this, your brother will give you a chance to make a fortune and become a supplier of a four-star hotel. How are you going to thank me?"
Yang Fann looked at Xiong Baiwan's smug face and nodded his head in fear and trepidation. "Bear cub, thank you so much. You are such a good person. Big deal of a good person!"
"Haha, it doesn't matter if you're a good person or not. You still haven't said how you're going to thank me? Are you going to give me 100 pots of secret drug wine every month for free? " Xiong Baiwan was proud. Finally, he had Yang Fann's lifeline. After all, he was just a small landlord. As long as he found a market for Yang Fann, Yang Fann would definitely stick to him.
Yang Fann still had a fawning smile on his face: "Young Master Xiong is truly loyal, I've decided not to trouble you. Things in the ditches, if you can't make it to the stage, you can't waste the favor of a bear cub!"
"Ugh …" Xiong Baiwan was stupefied. He was going to get a supplier for the hotel that he partnered with and suppress Wei Xiaorou's anger. Who knew that this guy would reject his offer to sell. Was this guy crazy?
Why did Xiong Baiwan help Yang Fann?
It wasn't because he had eaten Yang Fann's short mouth, but to leave a good impression on Wei Changqing and Wei Xiaorou. Coupled with the fact that Yang Fann had saved Wei Xiaoyong's daughter Little Nannan, Xiong Baiwan helping Yang Fann was tantamount to repaying Wei Xiaoyong's favor.
Wei Xiaoyong was the brightest person in their generation two officers group. Rather than saying that Xiong Baiwan was helping Yang Fann, it would be more accurate to say that he was trying to curry favor with Wei Family.
As for the fact that Xiong Baiwan was neutral in the process of helping, making his seniority no longer look so poor, this was a benefit of helping. In his heart, he did not feel that there was a relationship between Xiong Baiwan and Yang Fann. On the contrary, Yang Fann owed him a favor.
Although Xiong Baiwan didn't like Wei Xiaorou the way he said he did, being able to marry Wei Xiaorou was still very helpful to his career as a government official.
Therefore, if it was possible, Xiong Baiwan would still pursue Wei Xiaorou, it had nothing to do with love. For people like them, most marriages had to consider comprehensive factors, and didn't simply use love as a criterion to marry or not.
However, Xiong Baiwan felt that he couldn't grasp the situation anymore. In his mind, Yang Fann was just a small farmer, and a small landlord in the countryside could at most be considered a local tycoon.
However, a small landlord who depended on farming to survive could reject the opportunity to make a fortune that he had given him. This meant that this brat was really insidious. His goal must be Wei Xiaorou. Otherwise, why would he give up on making money?
Yang Fann didn't care what Xiong Baiwan was thinking. With his sharp observation skills, how could Yang Fann not see the disdain in Xiong Baiwan's eyes and his flattery towards Wei Xiaorou and her father?
Therefore, Yang Fann speculated that even though Xiong Baiwan helped out, it was mainly because of Wei Xiaorou, her father, and the other two. In addition, Liu Jie, the secretary of the governor, also helped out.
As for Xiong Baiwan, Wei Family, and Liu Jie, they had already accepted his favor. Yang Fann had received the favor from Wei Family and Liu Jie, so his relationship with Xiong Baiwan wasn't that big of a deal.
Since Yang Fann refused Xiong Baiwan's blame, Xiong Baiwan was no longer confident. Why did he say to find a big hotel for Yang Fann? It was because that four-star hotel was owned by him in partnership with a few friends.
Some of them were second-generation officials like Xiong Baiwan, and they relied on their parents' influence to upgrade the hotel to a 4-star hotel in just a few years.
However, if they wanted to make the hotel even more powerful and become a five-star hotel, they would have to rely on their parents' influence.
Yang Fann's Spatial Vegetable s and secret medicine made Xiong Baiwan acutely aware of the business opportunity. In fact, as long as one had eaten the Spatial Vegetable fruit and drank the secret medicine, they would be able to sense the business opportunity.
That's why Xiong Baiwan wanted his hotel to use Yang Fann's vegetables and fruits, as well as secret drug liquor. As long as he could monopolize the market of Yang Fann's farm in Jiangnan, a five-star hotel was just around the corner!
However, the reality was cruel. Just when Xiong Baiwan was about to collect a lot of money and Yang Fann's flattery, he was hit hard by Yang Fann. The other party didn't say a word and punctured Xiong Baiwan's dream.
For a moment, Xiong Baiwan wanted to use his power to deal with Yang Fann and force him to submit.
When he was eating at Wei Xiaorou's home, he had heard that Yang Fann had saved Wei Changqing's granddaughter, Wei Xiaoyong's daughter, Wei Xiaorou's niece. As long as he dared to lay a finger on Yang Fann, he believed that Wei Family would definitely let him know what regret was.
Even though Xiong Baiwan's dad and Wei Changqing's relationship wasn't bad, that was still the old relationship. Now that Wei Changqing was Deputy Stadholder, his level had already surpassed his father's.
Furthermore, if his own father knew that he had used underhanded means to deal with Wei Family's benefactor, even without Wei Changqing's help, his own father would beat him to death!
