151: Chapter 151 Do As You Please 151: Chapter 151 Do As You Please Hearing noises from inside the small bungalow, Chen Yang immediately went over and walked to the door.

Just as he was about to push the door open, he suddenly heard the landlady’s voice again, “Boss Liu, the price really can’t go any higher!

If it does, my little restaurant truly won’t be able to bear the burden.”

“Caiyun, don’t act like I’m a fool!

Your little restaurant makes a net profit of at least a few thousand yuan every day, you think I don’t know that?” a voice like an old man’s replied.

“Oh my!

My Boss Liu, where does the restaurant get such huge profits?

If we didn’t count labor and materials, that would be about right!” the landlady said with a tone of helplessness.

After hearing what the landlady said, the old man snorted lightly, then said, “I don’t care.

The price of these wild mushrooms has to go up, otherwise, I’ll sell them to someone else tomorrow.”

“Please don’t, Boss Liu!

Don’t do this, my little restaurant relies on these wild mushrooms.

The price is negotiable, isn’t it?” As soon as the old man issued his threat, the landlady instantly lost her temper.

Her tone immediately softened.

“But Boss Liu, my little restaurant really can’t withstand a big hike, I can only raise it by ten yuan at most.” The landlady quickly added.

“No way!

At least fifty!

The weather is about to turn to autumn, and the wild mushrooms are becoming more scarce.

Can’t buy them at that rate!” the old man flatly refused.

The tone was very firm.

“Oh my Boss Liu, if you raise it by fifty, my little restaurant really won’t be able to stay open.

Please be kind, don’t raise it so much,” the landlady pleaded in a very lowly voice.

She was completely put on the defensive.

At that moment, the old man suddenly chuckled twice, then his attitude was not as firm as before.

“Caiyun, actually, I can look after the business of your little restaurant and not raise prices!

But that’s only if you agree to one condition.”

The landlady immediately responded, “What condition, Boss Liu?

Just tell me.”

The old man’s chuckle became more genuine.

Chen Yang, standing outside the door, could tell that this old man seemed a bit disreputable.

Sure enough, after a few chuckles, the old man quickly said, “As long as you agree to sleep with me, I won’t raise the price of the wild mushrooms, and might even reduce it a bit!”

“Ah?

Boss Liu, how could that be possible…” The landlady couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise, her voice full of astonishment.

“What’s not possible about that?

If you don’t want the price to go up, that’s the only way!” the old man’s tone changed once again, becoming more forceful.

At this, the landlady fell silent.

Even through the wall, Chen Yang could feel that the landlady was extremely conflicted.

“Hmph, Caiyun, I’ll give you three days to think about it.

Let me know your decision, otherwise, in three days I won’t supply wild mushrooms to your restaurant anymore.” Seeing the landlady remained silent, the old man snorted heavily, and then his footsteps headed towards the door.

Hearing the footsteps approaching, Chen Yang immediately straightened up and pretended to walk casually towards the bathroom.

He had just left the front of the bungalow when the door creaked open behind him.

A simple-looking man with dark skin and a somewhat ugly face walked out from inside the door.

The old man stepped outside and immediately noticed Chen Yang, but after just two glances, he walked away from the backyard.

Chen Yang paused for a moment at the bathroom door, watching the old man leave the restaurant.

He then turned back and walked into the small bungalow.

He saw the landlady still standing inside, her face full of inner turmoil.

It seemed she was still pondering the condition set by the old man a moment ago.

“Landlady, what are you thinking about?” Chen Yang walked into the bungalow and asked with a smile.

Ah?

Chen Yang’s sudden voice startled the landlady, who was deep in thought.

She thought it was the old man who had come back.

Seeing that it was Chen Yang, she let out a big sigh of relief, then patted her fluctuating chest and said with a grievance, “You scared me to death, how did you get here?”

Chen Yang smiled meaningfully, then said, “I came to settle the bill!”

The landlady, looking at the smile on Chen Yang’s face, had a bad feeling in her heart.

She felt that Chen Yang had overheard her conversation with the old man.

Thinking this, she nodded and then tentatively asked, “When did you get here?”

“I came just when the mushrooms were about to get a price hike,” Chen Yang replied unabashedly with a smile.

At those words, the look on the restaurant owner’s face turned dark in an instant.

Such matters were, after all, unsavory, and now that Chen Yang knew about it, she naturally felt a bit emotional.

However, she quickly recovered.

“I didn’t expect you to hear everything,” the restaurant owner said expressionlessly, “Since that’s the case, let’s call today’s meal on the house, as my treat.

How about we don’t take this matter outside, okay?”

“Madam owner, I am, after all, a rich young master.

Do you really think I would blackmail you over the cost of a meal?

You’re really underestimating me,” Chen Yang said, shaking his head, clearly amused.

The color deepened on the restaurant owner’s face once again at his words.

“Then what do you want?

What will it take for you to act as if you didn’t hear anything today?”

The owner thought Chen Yang was about to make a ridiculous demand, but to her surprise, Chen Yang simply shook his head: “Relax, I’m not the kind of person to take advantage of others in their time of need.

I won’t speak of today’s matter.”

“Not only will I not talk about it, but I will also help you resolve this troublesome issue.”

The restaurant owner’s face was full of astonishment, clearly not expecting this turn of events.

But Chen Yang didn’t wait for her response and directly asked, “Are all the wild mushrooms in your restaurant’s fish soup supplied by that old man just now?”

The restaurant owner was even more shocked.

“How do you know that the mushrooms in my fish soup are wild mushrooms?”

“Don’t worry about that, just tell me if it’s true,” Chen Yang said with a wave of his hand.

Seeing Chen Yang so confident, the restaurant owner did not pursue further and simply nodded.

“Yes, all the wild mushrooms for this restaurant come from him.”

“How much per pound?”

“Seven-fifty!”

“Ah?

Seven hundred and fifty and he still wants to raise the price?

That’s just insatiable!” Chen Yang expressed, a bit shocked.

The restaurant owner nodded with a gloomy face, “But what can I do about it?

Wild mushrooms are very rare, and in this area, only his supply is consistent!”

Chen Yang immediately countered, “Who says he’s the only one who can supply them consistently?

I can too.”

“Ah?

You can?” The owner was shocked but quickly regained her composure, “Don’t joke around.

How could someone like you, a rich young master, possibly have wild mushrooms?”

Feeling underestimated, Chen Yang was a little displeased.

His eyes narrowed as he stared at the restaurant owner, “Madam, you’re underestimating me.

How can you be so sure I don’t have wild mushrooms?”

The restaurant owner suddenly laughed.

Her mature face lit up with a smile, exuding a mature charm that made Chen Yang’s heart flutter.

“Young man, it’s not that I underestimate you, but these wild mushrooms are really too precious.

They can only be found deep in the mountains.

How could you, a wealthy young man, have them?” she said, still smiling.

She truly saw Chen Yang as a certain hidden wealthy second-generation.

Chen Yang just smiled, “What if I really had wild mushrooms?

What would you do then?”

The restaurant owner paused.

Then she suddenly cast a seductive glance at Chen Yang, “If you really have them, then whatever you say goes.”

That look gave Chen Yang endless imagination!

“Heh, you said it yourself.

When I bring them to you, you better not go back on your word,” Chen Yang swallowed, saying.

“Don’t worry about it.

My restaurant can’t survive without wild mushrooms.

If you can supply them long term, what do I have to lose?” The restaurant owner exchanged another flirtatious look with Chen Yang.

It must be said, this intelligent woman was truly full of allure.

With just a single exchange of words, Chen Yang felt parched and a heat rising in his body.

If it weren’t for the fact that this was a restaurant, he would’ve had impulses of a criminal nature.
