I Carry a Game World With Me

Master Kai looked at the box of +3 Qingfeng Tea, his mind turning to how meticulously those influential figures brewed tea of this caliber, always afraid of using even a leaf too many.

Now President Lu was actually going to give him this box of tea. He could easily find someone to custom-make a special tea caddy from gold and jade, then repackage this tea and gift it to those influential figures.

Moreover, the amount in this box was enough to be split into several gifts. Since this level of tea was so incredibly rare, they wouldn’t think he was being stingy. On the contrary, they’d be delighted.

Of course, it wasn’t as if those influential figures were desperate for this tea, but the act of giving a gift versus not giving one created entirely different impressions.

A gift would create a good feeling, which would slowly improve their impression of him, and their relationship would naturally grow stronger.

"President Lu, thank you so much. I truly never imagined your company could produce such a top-tier tea." While speaking, Master Kai reached out, picked up the tea, and solemnly placed it on the table before him.

Lu Feng played along, spinning a tale, "Processing tea of this caliber is incredibly difficult. It requires numerous steps and incurs exorbitant costs."

"I understand, I understand," Master Kai immediately nodded.

He, of all people, understood this point.

Just then, Lu Feng’s phone rang. It was a call from Yang Lin, which he answered immediately.

Yang Lin’s voice came over the phone, "President Lu, where are you now? I have a surprise for you."

"Here in Tea City," Lu Feng couldn’t help but smile.

’A surprise?’

He didn’t need to guess; he knew it had to be the finished product from the electromagnetic rice cooker technology he’d gotten from the game.

"Okay, I’ll be right there," Yang Lin said, and promptly hung up.

Back in the Tea City shop, Master Kai handed his teacup to Lu Feng again. "President Lu, I really haven’t had enough of this tea."

Normally, at a tea ceremony, one wouldn’t actively ask for more tea, as doing so implies a lower status.

In fact, such a situation would typically mean the host had been rude; a proper host should notice an empty cup and proactively refill it—about seventy percent full is correct.

But Master Kai couldn’t be bothered with etiquette. After all, the tea was just too good, and this President Lu had used a full serving for a single brewing.

Tea of this quality was meant to be savored; using a whole serving at once was pure extravagance.

So, naturally, he wanted to drink as much as he could.

This line of thinking might seem ridiculous.

But in a city like Tianzhou City, with its deeply ingrained tea culture, it was perfectly normal.

「Time passed.」

Da Fei quickly drew up a tea purchase contract.

The total transaction amount was 375 million.

A 20% deposit of 75 million was required.

Furthermore, as they had agreed, the contract specified no delivery deadline.

They would simply produce the tea as best they could and deliver it to Master Kai as soon as it was ready.

Master Kai signed it without even looking.

For one, he knew for a fact that this deal would be profitable.

For another, he sincerely wanted to build a connection with President Lu.

When Da Fei saw Master Kai sign, his face grew even more excited. He had, of course, heard about Brother Ming and Chen Bo buying villas.

Being able to buy a villa in Tianzhou City’s wealthy district was definitely something to be envious of.

Now, as long as this deal with Master Kai was completed, his own shares would be worth enough to buy a villa, with money left over for a nice car.

Yang Ming and Chen Bo were also excited. After all, they had taken out loans to buy their villas. Once this deal was complete, they could pay off the loans directly. Even if they didn’t, the money would open up a lot of possibilities.

The people they had brought with them were naturally excited too. Although they hadn’t invested much, with such a large total sum, a quick calculation told them they would still get a good amount of money—enough to buy an apartment in Tianzhou City.

This made every one of them look at Lu Feng with even more respect.

After all, it was Young Master Feng who was leading them to make this money. In fact, you could even say he was just giving them money.

With a deal like this, anyone else brought in would also make money.

It just proved they were following the right boss, and that their boss had, in turn, latched onto the right person.

After the contract was signed, Da Fei carefully put it away.

Just then, Yang Lin came rushing in, holding a crude-looking rice cooker in his arms.

Seeing this, Lu Feng understood immediately.

’It really is finished.’

Master Kai and the others, however, watched in confusion as Yang Lin placed the rice cooker on the tea table and said excitedly, "President Lu, you won’t believe how incredible this rice cooker is! I had people test it against all the major brands on the market. With the same rice, the rice we make is a whole lot tastier."

"And you don’t even need a comparison. Just one bite of the rice from our cooker, and you’ll know it’s a delicacy one rarely gets to enjoy."

These words immediately caught the attention of the others.

Yang Ming and the others all knew that Lu Feng had bought an electronics company.

Before, they didn’t get it, but now they seemed to understand that Lu Feng had a plan all along.

Master Kai also took notice, but what he specifically focused on was that the rice cooked by this rice cooker was supposedly much tastier.

That point alone, if marketed well, could make this product a market sensation.

Meanwhile, Yang Lin was already eagerly plugging it in.

You could see that rice and water had already been placed inside the rice cooker.

He had come prepared, wanting to quickly let Lu Feng and his brothers experience how delicious the rice from this cooker was.

People are like that. It’s like when a group of friends hangs out, and one person buys some fruit, discovers it’s delicious, and immediately shares it and recommends it to everyone around them.

Just ten-odd minutes after Yang Lin started the rice cooker, a distinct aroma of rice could be smelled wafting from the steam vent.

"Huh, that aroma." Master Kai was even more intrigued.

When it comes to good rice, the aroma is very important.

The rice cooker at his home was a Mitsubishi that cost nearly 10,000, famous for the fragrant rice it cooked.

But he found that the aroma from the rice his housekeeper cooked with that rice cooker was far inferior to what was coming from this crude-looking one right now.

This point alone could be used as a marketing gimmick. If handled well, there would be no problem selling it for the same price as the Mitsubishi rice cooker.

Soon, the pot of rice was cooked.

As soon as the rice was done, Yang Lin eagerly said to Da Fei, "Da Fei, hurry up and get some bowls and chopsticks!"

Da Fei nodded and immediately found Xiaoyao, asking her to go out and buy some bowls and chopsticks.

Before long, brand new sets of bowls and chopsticks were placed in front of Lu Feng and the others.

Yang Lin then served a bowl of rice to each person.

Lu Feng took a bowl and started eating right away. With the first mouthful, a look of pleasant surprise appeared on his face. It was simply too delicious.

’I never thought Deliciousness +1 could reach this level. It seems to have elevated it by a whole tier.’

Yang Ming and the others were also astonished:

"This rice is really delicious."

"When I heard Ah Lin talking earlier, I thought he was exaggerating!"

"Yeah, not only is it delicious, but the texture is so perfectly soft and sticky."

"..."

Master Kai also took two bites of the rice. After just those two bites, he decisively asked Lu Feng, "President Lu, how about we cooperate on this rice cooker? We’ll go the high-end route, sell them for 20,000 each, and I’ll handle the marketing!"
