Chapter 114: Chapter 114: Just Useful

Upon hearing Zhuang Yan’s introduction, the middle-aged man named Lao Chen immediately approached Lin Yi with great enthusiasm and shook his hand warmly, while speaking with a friendly smile:

"Wow, Brother Lin, you’re really promising and talented. I’ve heard so much about you, and I’m excited to finally meet you in person today. It’s truly a pleasure."

Just as Lin Yi was surprised that the man spoke in a Cantonese dialect, Zhuang Yan timely introduced:

"Brother Lin, this is Chen Sheng, President Chen of our island’s largest Guangshuo Electronics Factory. This is President Chen’s wife. President Chen’s business is certainly no smaller than mine; over in Port City, his electronic factory is among the top."

So that’s why! No wonder he has a Cantonese accent, he’s from Port City.

Lin Yi also smiled and shook hands with the other party:

"Haha, so it’s President Chen. It’s a pleasure to meet you. I’ve heard Brother Zhuang talk about how incredible President Chen is at business; I’ve long wanted to learn from you. I never thought I’d meet you here today. I hope to seek your guidance later, please do not hesitate to advise! Haha."

President Chen, upon hearing Lin Yi’s praise, waved his hands while smiling:

"Oh, it’s nothing much. Our bit of wealth is nothing compared to Brother Lin. But Brother Lin’s skills in jade appraisal are something I truly admire."

The female store clerk overheard the conversation and was naturally taken aback.

She never imagined the middle-aged couple beside Chairman Zhuang were the famous owners of Guangshuo Electronics Factory!

They are giants just like Chairman Zhuang!

Yet this isn’t the main surprise. What’s more stunning is the young man she thought was just a sycophant seems to have a status on par with these titans!

For a moment, she was truly panicked.

What’s going on in this world! Can’t you big shots stop pretending to be humble?

Recalling the manager asking her to find a leadership supervisor, her heart sank.

She knew for sure her internship was about to end.

She was well aware that what awaited her was not a formal position but being asked to pack up and leave.

With a helpless sigh, she finally turned around and left silently.

Today’s incident taught her a valuable lesson: never judge people by their looks.

After a round of pleasantries, Lin Yi learned that President Chen indeed had sought him out.

The purpose? Partially for his jade appraisal skills, but primarily to purchase some Imperial Qian Longjing Tea.

Like Zhuang Yan, President Chen is also someone obsessed with tea.

Since Zhuang Yan flaunted his exquisite Imperial Qian Longjing last time, President Chen desperately wanted to get his hands on some.

He’s been thinking of ways to acquire some all day, but Zhuang Yan had no intention of parting with it; it’s simply too precious.

Realizing he couldn’t obtain any from Zhuang Yan, President Chen decided to turn his attention to those buying the tea.

After all, this wasn’t a secret, and fearing Chen might directly approach Father Lin, Zhuang Yan disclosed Lin Yi’s name.

Furthermore, he promised to introduce the two, and help inquire if there was more of such wonderful tea available.

"So President Chen wants the Imperial Qian Longjing. This could be difficult; I do have some, but they are reserved for my father."

Upon hearing this, Zhuang Yan awkwardly chuckled, as he had originally sourced his supply from Father Lin.

Despite hearing this, President Chen showed a face of disappointment, realizing he couldn’t leverage his relationship with Lin Yi like Zhuang Yan.

Zhuang Yan could obtain some from Father Lin, but there’s no way Chen could.

Lin Yi probably wouldn’t grant him that favor.

However, he was mistaken. After careful consideration, Lin Yi finally said:

"But seeing President Chen’s genuine desire for the tea, and given it’s our first meeting plus Brother Zhuang’s recommendation, I can’t refuse. Although not much, I’ll manage a few ounces for President Chen."

Prepared to walk away empty-handed, Chen Sheng hadn’t anticipated Lin Yi would agree so easily. He was overjoyed.

Even with assets worth billions, he couldn’t acquire the rare Imperial Qian Longjing.

After all, it’s a precious item that decreases with each sip.

Even two giants in Huaxia, should they want this tea, wouldn’t find it easily accessible.

Frankly speaking, if Lin Yi leaked the news of owning the tea, those two would quickly send someone to buy.

Not because they’re tea aficionados, but because gifting this outshines gold.

This tea is a status symbol too.

"Haha, thank you very much, Brother Lin! Your kindness will be remembered. Should there be something you need in the future, just say the word!"

Not only was Chen Sheng delighted, but even Zhuang Yan felt proud since Lin Yi also mentioned his recommendation.

It undoubtedly granted him a favor as well.

Watching Lin Yi’s cheerful demeanor, Zhuang Yan couldn’t help but silently praise:

Brother Lin’s future is limitless.

Regardless of skill, the ability to converse so adeptly is rare.

Interestingly, Lin Yi agreed to share some tea not due to Zhuang Yan’s influence.

The reason was entirely linked to Chen Sheng’s business.

Guangshuo Electronics Factory’s president—what a convenient coincidence, almost like fate sent him this!

One mustn’t forget, there’s a system task Lin Yi hasn’t completed yet, and part of his plan involves the electronics factory.

As luck would have it, just as he needed help, Zhuang Yan brought him the right person. What a stroke of fortune!

"Haha, I’ll remember your words, President Chen. When the time comes, I’ll definitely trouble you."

With understanding laughs exchanged, Zhuang Yan then proposed:

"From now on, we are brothers. Whatever benefits, we must mutually support each other a bit. Come on, let’s check out that batch of diamonds?"

Upon hearing diamonds, Chen Sheng slapped his forehead with a hearty laugh:

"Yes, indeed! I’m here to see Chairman Zhuang’s diamonds. Let’s go check them out now. Meeting the sister-in-law for the first time, I’ve brought gifts; feel free to choose any as an early present from me as your big brother. I hope Brother Lin doesn’t mind."

After Chen Sheng spoke, Zhuang Yan laughed heartily and said:
