Chapter 636: Chapter 464 Liu Zheng: My knife skills are truly impeccable

"Of course it’s real."

The store manager said confidently.

"Of course, this is the result of our research. We haven’t had time to collect customer feedback yet."

He paused and said.

"Why?"

"Because the Angel Fruit is a new product we just launched, it hasn’t been on the market for even a week."

The store manager said.

"I see."

Liu Zheng nodded.

Niu Ma had been busy with him all week, naturally having no time to go home, let alone visit a fruit store.

"Has your fruit passed testing by the City Hall?"

He asked.

"Of course, as a chain brand, our products must be certified by the City Supervision Department."

The store manager said.

"I see, then I’ll make a call to check."

Since it concerns having a child, especially his boss having a child, it’s better to be cautious.

He took out his phone and called Silver Wolf.

"What’s up?"

The sound of tapping on a keyboard came from the other side, so loud that Liu Zheng suspected it might be using its fist to hit the keys.

"Brother-in-law, are you busy? Is it convenient to talk?"

He politely asked.

"No problem, just routine paperwork. Go ahead."

Silver Wolf replied.

"It’s like this, the ’Busy Hours’ fruit store launched a new product called ’Angel Fruit’, and I wanted to ask if it has been tested by the City Supervision Department."

Liu Zheng said.

"Hang on, I’ll check."

The other end went silent, possibly being muted.

After a few minutes, the sound of keyboard tapping came back over the phone.

"I checked, and there are no issues found at the moment. However, its effect isn’t as exaggerated as advertised, particularly the effect on extraordinary species is lacking—the more extraordinary the species, the worse the effect."

Silver Wolf said.

"Alright then, thanks, Brother-in-law."

"No biggie."

Silver Wolf hung up.

"Manager, you seem to have left some details out, huh?"

Liu Zheng pocketed his phone, looking at the store manager with a half-smile.

Silver Wolf’s voice was loud enough for the nearby store manager to hear.

"You didn’t ask, did you?"

The store manager said, maintaining a straight face.

"What now?"

"As you heard, our product has no issues, though there might be some discrepancies in efficacy as advertised. But this doesn’t diminish the value of the Angel Fruit."

The store manager said.

"Good point, so I should just say that when I leave?"

He raised an eyebrow.

"Absolutely, after all, we didn’t do a thorough job. We’re willing to offer you some compensation."

The store manager immediately switched his tune.

"How about a membership card, is that too much to ask?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"Well, our membership card provides significant discounts, so the threshold is quite high."

The store manager was a bit troubled.

"What’s the shelf life of the Angel Fruit?"

He asked.

"It’s very long, as long as it’s stored in a cool, dry place, it can last two or three years without any problem. However, if it comes into contact with seawater, it will instantly dissolve."

The store manager said.

"Then I’ll take a hundred more."

Liu Zheng said.

"Are you sure? One Angel Fruit costs five hundred bucks."

The store manager confirmed.

"Isn’t there a membership card?"

"High-end new fruits like this don’t participate in membership discounts, but members have the priority to buy and purchase in excess."

The store manager said.

"Then go ahead and buy."

Liu Zheng nodded.

Fifty thousand it’s just, and Niu Ma’s broken horn for him cost more than that.

"Alright. Should I call someone to pack them up for you now?"

The store manager probed.

"Pack them."

He waved a tentacle grandly, full of flair.

"Got it. Hey, you, pack a hundred Angel Fruits for this distinguished guest, using the best packing. Mess up one and I’ll smash your heads."

The store manager shouted loudly.

"Yes!"

The clerk who was called out responded loudly.

An order this big benefits all the clerks, at least this month’s performance bonus will be a given.

"Do you need anything else?"

The store manager asked respectfully.

"No, that should be more than enough."

Liu Zheng shook his head.

Buying this much at once, even Niu Ma should have enough to eat for a while.

"Alright, then please sit and wait a moment."

The store manager enthusiastically brought over a chair and handed him a glass of juice.

"This is our newly launched mixed fresh-pressed juice, please help us taste the flavor."

The store manager said.

"Sure."

Liu Zheng took the juice and drank a sip, experiencing several layers of sourness and sweetness exploding in his mouth at the same time.

The sourness came first, followed by sweetness, each time the sourness made him furrow his brows, there was a trace of sweetness to make him relax his brows.

"Hmm, not bad. But the flavor is overly complicated."

Liu Zheng evaluated.

Beverages are not dishes; he still prefers something more refreshing.

"Alright, I will relay your feedback to the R&D department."

The store manager solemnly said.

The two chatted a bit more about fruits, and the clerk who was told to prepare the goods returned.

"Manager, all the goods are ready."

The clerk shouted.

"Got it. What do you say?"

The store manager responded, looking at Liu Zheng.

"Checkout."

He stood up and headed toward the cashier, the store manager quickly following behind.

"Sir, how would you like to pay?"

The cashier asked.

"Cash."

"Okay, that will be fifty thousand in total."

The cashier said.

"Hmm?"

Liu Zheng looked at the store manager.

"It’s just a small gesture from me, I hope you don’t mind."

The store manager said with a smile.

"Then I gladly accept."

His eyes revealed a trace of appreciation.

This store manager is quite flexible and articulate, a talent for delivery services.

Liu Zheng pulled out stack after stack of cash, placing it on the counter—watching the clerks grow thirsty.

"Is that enough?"

He pushed the stacked bills forward.
