Two simple numbers made the whole place fall silent.
If Gongsun Qian and Qi Manqing were hired by Ye Fan, then no one in Master Gong would doubt his authenticity.
Master Gong is well-known as a giant in the food industry, with authority comparable to that of the Director of Food Safety. He will never cheat to give others a leg up.
This means that the contract is genuine.
This one-billion-dollar contract is ten times more effective than Gongsun Qian's and her group's one-billion-dollar contract, because it has truly spread to all major catering industries.
Once Taipo Herbal Tea is accepted by all parties, it will have an explosive reputation and then sweep across the country.
Shen Baodong showed fear.
Chen Ximo was dumbfounded.
Even Chen Chenxi felt tremendous pressure.
This was a fatal blow to the Shen Group.
Grandma's heart trembled and she shouted: "Master Gong, why are you going against us?"
"Confrontation?"
Master Gong was stunned for a moment, then calmly faced Grandma and the others and smiled:
"Grandma, I don't want to go against the Shen family, and I don't like grudges."
He who can conquer the stomachs of countless people with one hand does not even bother to regard the Shen Family Group as his opponent.
"You don't want to go against us?"
Grandma's voice became sharp: "You used your status and face to sign a billion-dollar contract for Ye Fan. Isn't this an act of rebellion?"
"I'm afraid most of the customers here are also Shen family customers."
"What kind of virtue and ability does Ye Fan have that allows Master Gong to steal customers from the Shen family regardless of the holiday?"
"How much money did they pay you to fawn over like that?"
She banged the cane, the wrinkles on her face tightened, she was very angry.
It was a matter of life and death for Shen's Herbal Tea, and she no longer cared about Master Gong's status.
"Grandma, there is no need to throw dirty water on me, I have a clear conscience."
"None of these contracts were forced by me, and none of them were obtained in exchange for my face."
Master Gong’s face showed pride:
"I just gathered thirty-six catering giants together and treated them to a cup of eight-level herbal tea brewed by Ye Fan."
"Everyone, including the catering giant who once mistook me for being paid to endorse me, just like you, after drinking, they all rushed to sign the contract of intent."
"If I hadn't been worried that Ye Laodi's production line was immature and couldn't brew too much herbal tea within the specified time, would you believe that the contract amount could reach 10 billion?"
He was reminded by Ye Fan that Buddha Jumping Over the Wall tasted ten times better, and it also made him more famous and wealthy.
So he knew that Ye Fan opened a herbal tea shop, so he helped out.
Master Gong picked up a bowl of herbal tea and shouted: "Today, I not only support Brother Ye, I also give a rating to Grandma's herbal tea."
“7S herbal tea!”
“No. 1 in the market!”
Master Gong announced the quality of Taipo Herbal Tea in front of everyone, which instantly made many people present scream and be shocked.
You know, Shen's herbal tea is only rated four and a half stars, while Ye Fan's herbal tea is rated seven stars. Doesn't that mean it is twice as effective?
"You, you..."
Before Grandma Tai and the others could speak, Chen Ximo rushed forward with a dash of anger and shouted to Ye Fan:
"Ye Fan, you are so shameless."
"You used your ability to make Buddha jump over the wall and secretly exchange interests with Master Gong. How shameless are you doing this?"
"Don't you know the quality of your herbal tea?"
"Is the herbal tea you modified from the Shen family's secret recipe comparable to the Shen family's authentic herbal tea?"
"I know you like to make a fool of yourself, but I didn't expect you to be so despicable that even Master Gong was brought down."
"I'm so disappointed in you..."
She scolded Ye Fan, then turned to face the audience and shouted:
"The thing is like this, Ye Fan has a secret recipe for the palace Buddha to jump over the wall."
"In order for Master Gong to teach Ye Fan to him, he helped him win the one billion contract."
"I have known Ye Fan for so long. He is just doing nothing all day long and doesn't know how to make herbal tea. How can he be favored by a bunch of catering giants?"
"Master Gong's appearance is just a double act with Ye Fan."
"My mother and Aunt Ye were also there that day. They all know that Ye Fan gave Master Gong the secret recipe."
Chen Ximo still tilted his head to Chen Chenxi anxiously: "Mom, please stand up and say something."
Chen Chenxi frowned, although she thought it was impossible for Master Gong to do this, but seeing her daughter's depressed look, she couldn't see Ye Fan being high-spirited either.
She stood up and smiled lightly:
"I can testify to this. The day before yesterday, we were having dinner in the palace kitchen, and Ye Fan wrote a secret recipe to Master Gong."
She added: "He also said at that time that the secret recipe would make Master Gong's Buddha Jumps Over the Wall even more perfect."
Several female companions in cheongsam also echoed: "Yes, that's right, we can all testify."
"Ah, it turns out to be a transaction."
"Isn't Master Gong a very upright person? Why don't you ask for a platform fee of 100 million? How can you make a deal with Ye Fan?"
"Master Gong is obsessed with cooking. Ye Fan has the palace's secret recipe, so he naturally dives into it. For him, reputation is not as important as the secret recipe."
"It's over, it's over. Although Master Gong has extenuating circumstances, his reputation will still be ruined if he operates in secret like this. No one will believe him in the future."
A group of guests started whispering and looked at Master Gong and Ye Fan with contempt.
Hearing these voices, Grandma Tai, Shen Baodong and others softened their expressions.
Chen Ximo raised his head again, looking at Ye Fan like a victorious rooster:
"Ye Fan, don't try to cheat in my hands."
Chen Ximo's pretty face was very proud: "If you want to overcome your thoughts, you have to show your true skills."
"I won't let you win by dirty means."
In her original thought, Ye Fan should be a desolate and lonely person, setting off the Shen family's scenery. If there was any improvement, it would be a treason.
Ye Fan looked at Chen Ximo with a colder eye: "You owe Master Gong an apology."
Master Gong smiled: "Brother Ye, I'm fine, but they are the ones who don't recognize your pearl of wisdom."
He was very calm, it didn't matter, and he stopped Ye Fan from defending himself.
He shook his head gently at Chen Chenxi: "Mr. Chen, you don't know what you have lost..."
"It's just him, what else do you have to lose?"
Chen Chenxi looked at Ye Fan. His nose was not a nose, and his eyebrows were not eyebrows.
"Chirp——"
Just then, another firework took off.
Then, a loud voice came over: "Tiancheng Martial League, Hu Shanhe, Mr. Hu has arrived."
"What, is Hu Shanhe?"
"This is the vice president of the Martial Alliance, one of the few people in Tiancheng. Why is he here?"
"It is said that Mr. Chen personally invited it on behalf of the Shen family, so that they could come and take a look."
More than a hundred people present suddenly became noisy.
