"Oh! Darling! This is so beautiful!"
The young foreign woman jumped up excitedly,
wrapped her arms around Wang Chaoxhangye's neck, and her legs around his waist, lowering her head for a deep kiss!
Wang Chaoxhangye enjoyed the long kiss,
holding the foreign woman's legs, he walked toward the deck, ready for a playful dive.
At this moment,
there was a knock on the door.
"Hello, may I come in to deliver the fruit platter?"
The butler's friendly voice came from outside the door,
"Oh no. ~"
Wang Chaoxhangye, like a child deprived of candy, tilted his head, gave the foreign woman a regretful smile,
then put her down,
opened the door,
and saw the butler carrying a three-tiered wooden rack walk in.
In the middle of this wooden rack was a bucket filled with ice, with a bottle of red wine inserted at an angle.
The three tiers of the wooden rack displayed various fruits, biscuits, pastries, and two small bowls of exquisite sorbet.
On the sides of the bucket, small handles extended outward,
each hanging a wine glass symmetrically.
"This is our hotel's signature star sugar frosted biscuits and fresh fruit milk sorbet, the taste is excellent!"
The butler gently placed the platter on the dining table,
then quietly closed the door as Wang Chaoxhangye and the foreign woman watched.
Wang Chaoxhangye took out the bottle of red wine from the ice bucket, glanced at the label,
raised his eyebrows,
"Wow~"
"Nice!!!"
The foreign woman sat by the dining table, gazing at the sea, picked up the sorbet and tasted a small spoonful.
Her face immediately lit up with delight.
She scooped another spoonful of sorbet and directly fed it to Wang Chaoxhangye.
The cool, smooth sorbet quickly melted in his mouth, blending the light milk flavor with the fresh sweetness of the fruit, paired with the azure sea and endless blue sky, bringing a unique taste of Little Majia Island.
Wang Chaoxhangye sat beside the foreign woman like a big golden retriever,
his face full of anticipation and pride,
his blue eyes looking at the foreign woman and then at the bowl of sorbet in her hand, with a look of waiting to be fed.
"Hey, that bowl is yours."
The foreign woman pointed to the bowl on the table, turned around, looked at the sea, and scooped another spoonful of sorbet for herself.
But just as she took a bite,
Wang Chaoxhangye's head followed her arm, directly diving into her chest, lying on her lap, and softly whispered,
"Baby~~"
The foreign woman looked down at Wang Chaoxhangye,
half a minute later,
her stubborn expression suddenly softened, and she gently fed him a spoonful of sorbet, then ruffled his hair,
"Hehe."
Wang Chaoxhangye grinned, stretched his neck up, and kissed the foreign woman's lips.
The bright sunlight shone on the clear water, the waves rolled with fine white foam, playfully enticing the honeymooning foreign couple inside.
The foreign woman pushed Wang Chaoxhangye away, gently tapped the freckles on his face,
quickly finished the sorbet in the bowl,
then changed into a white bikini from her suitcase, her long brown legs swiftly running down the stairs, and leapt into the sea.
Wang Chaoxhangye watched the foreign woman's happy figure, turned to change into his swim trunks,
and just as shamelessly leapt into the sea, frolicking with his wife.
...
Nanjing Guangkuo Aquatic Products Company
"Is the information accurate?"
Xu Yong sat behind his desk, looking up at his secretary with a very unpleasant expression.
"Just received the news, their office address is in an office building on Prosperous Avenue, Nanjing, but the warehouse location is still unknown."
The secretary reported truthfully.
"Okay, I got it."
Xu Yong nodded.
The secretary sensibly turned and left, closing the door behind him.
"Sigh..."
In the quiet office, Xu Yong let out a long sigh, took off his glasses and threw them on the desk, rubbing his eyes.
"Damn it!"
That damned Chen Jianhai!
Xu Yong cursed through gritted teeth.
35% profit, a vast market, abundant channels, and advanced fishing technology,
he was almost spoon-feeding Chen Jianhai,
just one nod from Chen Jianhai,
and he could use Little Majia Island's red sea bream to captivate the foreign market, establishing the Nanjing Guangkuo brand abroad and achieving initial international business expansion.
But who could have imagined Chen Jianhai would reject him!
Trouble never comes alone!
Losing the northern bay of Little Majia Island was unfortunate,
but the real enemy had already quietly taken root in Nanjing.
Previously, the Nanjing municipal government had been planning to attract investment, constantly seeking another economic growth point besides tourism.
But they hadn't found a large-scale company that fit the bill and wouldn't pollute the environment for a long time,
then an event called "Little Horse" brought attention to Nanjing,
and a super large aquatic product chain company also set its sights on this prime location.
That company, named "Wang Dynasty Fishery," was best at creating deep-sea ranches,
its subsidiaries involved in various high-quality aquatic products, transportation, feed, and other areas, making it a formidable competitor.
Facing such a strong opponent,
even someone as resilient as Xu Yong felt immense pressure, unsure if he could maintain his existing base advantages.
"Ding-dong~"
The phone rang,
Xu Yong opened his phone, a message popped up,
it was from the foreign channel intermediary, inquiring about the supply of premium fish.
Xu Yong felt overwhelmed, wanting to send a few polite words to delay,
but just as his fingers hovered over the screen, he shook his head and locked his phone, tossing it aside.
"Sigh... I'll go find Chen Jianhai in a few days to see."
Xu Yong sighed,
business negotiations are never smooth the first time, if it doesn't work once, find another opportunity to talk!
Times have changed, society is developing faster and faster,
who could have imagined it wouldn't take thirty years for the tables to turn,
it only took six months,
for that small hotel owner Chen Jianhai, who once negotiated to buy fish below market price,
to now become the one strangling his development lifeline.
"But..."
"Why would a hotel owner randomly ask about small fishermen?"
Xu Yong frowned,
in his anger, he hadn't realized it at the time,
but now thinking about it, there's no connection between the two!
The hotel's supply and the fishermen's catch are two different channels, there's no possible interaction!
Chen Jianhai's inquiry must have been prompted by something he saw,
Xu Yong suddenly slapped the desk,
the islanders of Little Majia Island!
Xu Yong immediately picked up the office phone,
"From now on, the price for buying fish from Little Majia Island's residents will follow the market average."
"...Wait, include Da Cai Gui Island too!"
Before he finished speaking,
the secretary's voice came from the other end of the phone,
"Mr. Xu, today the market report came in,"
"the two islands you mentioned have clearly stated they won't cooperate with us or supply us with fish since yesterday..."
What?!
Xu Yong's pupils contracted, and he froze in place.
