Chapter 442: Chapter 440: Beating the Koreans (Third Update)

Lu Xiaobu’s phone kept ringing.

Grandma Jia Yi’s call: "Xiaobu, you’ve really acted impulsively, how could you carelessly make a bet like that?"

Chen Wen and Fang Li’s call: "Young Master Bu, you’ve really suffered a big loss this time, the other party is clearly setting you up! Three days, this is obviously a trap!"

Sun Wanqi’s call: "Lu Xiaobu, have you gone mad?"

Even Lin Feng made a call: "Are you asking for death? You haven’t even waited for me to deal with you, and now you’re courting death?!"

All of them did not believe and were full of regrets.

It can’t be helped that they didn’t believe, nor can they be blamed for their disbelief.

No one would believe this kind of thing if it were them.

To say that Lu Xiaobu would spend 5.34 million US dollars, investing money—they all believe that.

After all, for Lu Xiaobu, this isn’t a lot of money.

But, to say that Lu Xiaobu made America import goods worth 5.34 million US dollars—the difficulty of that isn’t just double or as simple as that.

For large items, like machinery and such, perhaps just one or two, three or four machines would do it.

But now, we’re talking about hot sauce that costs only a few dollars per bottle.

To reach 5.34 million US dollars with that, the difficulty is akin to scaling the heavens!

However, just when everyone was disbelieving,

A bunch of Americans, who had flown for more than a dozen hours but seemed neither tired nor hungry, carrying money, rushed into Lu Group.

"Lao Ganma, we want to import Lao Ganma."

A few foreigners who knew some Chinese shouted with their awkward Chinese.

And the rest of the foreigners who didn’t know Chinese were also raising signs one by one.

The crowd was excited.

The American market is eagerly awaiting right now, the sooner they act, the more they could potentially earn.

And for others, they’d probably just get the leftovers!

Customer service was scared and confused by this group of Americans.

They quickly called to notify their superiors.

The junior leaders came down and were baffled.

Well, there was nothing for it but to keep reporting up the line.

That’s how the calls went up the chain, directly up to Liang Lan.

Upon hearing this news, Liang Lan’s eyes lit up instantly.

She quickly made a call to inform Lu Xiaobu: "Young Master, the Americans are here, they want to import Lao Ganma!"

Her heart overflowed with excitement.

Actually, she too was somewhat doubtful before.

After all, from any perspective, the bet made by the Young Master seemed unrealistic and nearly impossible to achieve.

But as someone on the Young Master’s side, on such matters, she had to maintain her place on the team, keeping absolute trust in the Young Master.

That’s why she kept quiet, silently waiting for the moment the Young Master created a miracle.

Sure enough!

They came!

"They’re here, that’s great."

Lu Xiaobu’s lips curled into a smile.

Although he was almost certain in his heart, when the moment truly arrived, he felt very excited.

"Alright, I stated 5.34 million US dollars and not one cent more, not one penny less, as for the price, let’s set it at 70!"

Lu Xiaobu wasn’t polite at all when it came to fleecing foreigners.

Directly raising the price 14 times.

Take it or leave it.

This is the confidence that comes with a monopoly!

"Yes, Young Master."

Liang Lan had nothing to say about the price either, indicating her agreement.

Right now, it’s a seller’s market, and they have the final say on the prices.

What?

You say it’s too expensive?

Not buying?

Well then, we’re not selling anymore. After all, this time our supply is limited.

If you don’t buy, just watch others make money!

...

Liang Lan has gone to negotiate with the Americans.

The online debate is still heating up.

But now it is almost completely one-sided.

Just like the shameless tactics once used by Korea, they cling to this issue and keep harping on about it.

It annoys the Heavenly Dynasty’s netizens to no end, but they are powerless to do anything about it.

Jin Hu’en is also shouting his head off.

"Where’s the contract? I’m waiting for it, Lu Xiaobu. Don’t play the silent game like a coward! And don’t try to say that the deal doesn’t start until the contract arrives! The clock is ticking now!"

"Let me tell you, whether the contract arrives or not, you have to follow through. The netizens are watching keenly!"

"Stop using petty tactics like ’my brother did it’ or ’my family did it,’ it’s embarrassing!"

"We’re all public figures here. Better not to use these petty tricks!"

The Korean crowd is also echoing the sentiment.

"Oh, Lu Xiaobu has chickened out, he must follow through on his own boast, even if he has to kneel!"

"Honestly, whether it’s a hundred million or not, I couldn’t care less. I just want to see such an arrogant guy get slapped in the face by his own words and see his embarrassment as he kneels down!"

"I can’t take it anymore, I’m getting excited, this is more thrilling than watching the World Cup!"

"Time, please move faster!"

...

And just then.

The news came out.

"Numerous American retail companies come to the Heavenly Dynasty to discuss import business, reportedly in huge volumes!"

"Received secret information that the American retail companies are importing food, condiments, specifically Lao Ganma!"

"Lu Xiaobu’s strong counterattack, who says our Heavenly Dynasty’s food can’t break into international markets?!"

"According to eyewitnesses, the companies discussing business in the Heavenly Dynasty include America’s largest retail group, Butterfly Group! And the second largest, Conna Group!"

"Two of the biggest retail groups coming over, all for Lao Ganma, this is a powerful blow from Lu Xiaobu to Korea!"

"It seems Lu Xiaobu isn’t shooting blindly, he had prepared in advance. Can Lu Xiaobu successfully win the bet?"

"An exhilarating day, the start of a counterattack! Let’s cheer for Lu Xiaobu!"

...

These news pieces reached the online community, reached the ears of the Heavenly Dynasty’s people, and also reached the ears of the Koreans.

Instantly.

Everybody was astounded!

"Hahaha, who said Lu Xiaobu couldn’t do it, step forward!"

"Three days? Who needs three days? It’s barely been any time and it’s already started!"

"Good job, Lu Xiaobu! Lu Xiaobu rocks!"

"Nothing else matters, this calls for a thumbs-up!"

"Amazing! Trashing Korea!"

...

The people of the Heavenly Dynasty are over the moon.

Just this morning, they were still anxious for Lu Xiaobu, angry about his unwise decision.

But before the day was even over, Lu Xiaobu had already started his counterattack!

Tell me, isn’t he awesome?!

The netizens of the Heavenly Dynasty are excited, but the Koreans are dumbfounded.

"What the heck! This can happen?"

"Butterfly Retail and Conna Retail went to the Heavenly Dynasty?! And it’s for Lao Ganma?!"

"Holy cow! Is this for real or fake news?!"

"It must be fake news, how could it be so quick? A bet was made just this morning and it’s already started by the afternoon? Are they kidding?"

"I get it, this is definitely a smoke bomb from the Heavenly Dynasty side, just to stop Jin Hu’en from daring to take the contract!"

"Childish tricks, we’ve seen right through them!"
