Liuli Pavilion, one of the two largest and most luxurious restaurants in Liyue.
Under the guidance of the waitress, Li Yan came to an exquisite and elegant private room.
There was a small round table in the private room.
There were not many foods on the table, but they were very exquisite and exquisite, and they were profoundly inspired by the four words of refinement, simplicity, purity and detail.
And next to the table, there was a beautiful woman who anyone who saw her would have to call her a natural beauty.
The woman was wearing a cheongsam with phoenix patterns, gold, white and black alternating colors, and a golden rock element god's eye on her waist. She was tall and graceful, with black sleeves and golden finger gloves on her arms.
The platinum long hair that fell to her calves was rolled up by a black and gold hairpin, and the vermilion tassels of the same color as her eyes hung from her forehead.
Her facial features were delicate, her skin was as white as jade, transparent, and exuded a fragrance like orchids. An elegant and mysterious smile hung on her perfect face, like a charming and noble queen.
It was Ningguang, one of the seven stars of Liyue, the owner of Yanyue Tianquan, Yunshang Xianfu, Yanxia Xinggong, and Qunyu Pavilion.
Behind Ningguang, stood a middle-aged woman dressed as a secretary, not very good-looking.
"Mr. Li is really decisive and let me see a good show."
Ningguang smiled at Li Yan in an elegant, mysterious and charming voice: "I have been waiting for a long time. It is really not easy to invite you. Please take a seat."
She is not a weak person, so she can naturally sense the process of Li Yan's handling of Mr. Maocai.
"It is my fault to keep Miss Ningguang of Tianquan Star waiting for a long time."
Li Yan calmly sat opposite Ningguang, and also teased with a smile: "And Miss Ningguang is joking. Who in the whole Liyue or even the seven countries doesn't want to see Miss Ningguang more? It's a pity that I am worried about the risk of losing money again."
He looked at Ningguang, with admiration in his warm and deep eyes.
In the continent of Teyvat, those who have the Eye of God are called the original gods.
Because the Eye of God can make people evolve towards the demon god, flawless and pure.
Ningguang's strength is not bad, not inferior to some demon god's followers, and the level of life evolution is very high.
Of course, if it was just this, Li Yan would not appreciate and like her, but also because of her temperament.
Ningguang was born in a humble family, but she was born with beauty and talent, and she became one of the top seven stars of Liyue mortals.
What's more commendable is that although she likes Mora, she can give up the Jade Pavilion that has gathered most of her wealth for the people of Liyue.
Ningguang smiled and said, "Hehe... How do you know that this time is not a fortune?"
"Oh... make a fortune? It's not an easy thing to make money from Miss Ningguang."
Li Yan chuckled and didn't comment on what Ningguang said.
Making money is not as simple as getting Mora for Ningguang.
The mall is like a battlefield. Every mall struggle is an irreplaceable exciting game for her. The money she earns can not only be used as wealth, but also symbolize one victory after another.
"Hehe... Let's not talk about this for now. Let's try the snacks that I asked the chef of Liuliting to make carefully."
"Although these snacks are small in size, they have been prepared since yesterday and were only completed at noon today."
Ningguang's smile became even bigger when she heard this. She really enjoyed the Mora that every big businessman had to give up in front of her.
Especially facing Li Yan, who has emerged like a dark horse in the past year, she is even more concerned.
"Okay."
Li Yan nodded slightly, picked up the jade chopsticks, and tasted the so-called chef's skills one by one under Ningguang's introduction.
This harmonious scene made the two of them look like they were not preparing to discuss a big business at all, but like good friends who came out to explore the store.
"The snacks have been tasted, Miss Ningguang, it's time to talk about business."
After a while, after Li Yan tasted all the snacks, he slowly put down his chopsticks and looked directly at Ningguang.
"Yes, sir, that's true."
Facing Li Yan's gentle and deep gaze, Ningguang smiled slightly and said: "I hope you can reduce the price of medicines, paper and cloth by 50%. For this, I can open my sales channels in the seven countries to Taisu Pavilion."
"After my observation and calculation, even if the price drops by 50%, with Taisu Pavilion's cost and production capacity, plus my sales channels, the total profit will not be lower than it is now."
"I wonder if you can consider it?"
As she said, she took out a document contract and put it on the table.
According to her meaning, she hoped that Taisu Pavilion could make small profits but quick turnover and take the route of benefiting the people.
"A 50% reduction?!"
Zhao Gui, who was standing behind Li Yan, could not help but stare at Ningguang, who was smiling, in amazement.
In his eyes, Ningguang, who was as beautiful as a fairy, was like a beautiful snake, baring her fangs at Taisu Pavilion.
Expanding production capacity to do more things and selling more, but the profit was not much higher.
Taisu Pavilion has basically achieved a monopoly in technology.
What is the benefit of small profits and quick turnover for Taisu Pavilion? The price has been reduced twice before, and now it is asking for a high price again.
Isn't this treating Taisu Pavilion as a sucker? Facing this request that sounds quite excessive, Li Yan's expression is very calm, and he even has the leisure to pick up the teacup and take a sip of the clear tea. "Yes."
Then Li Yan slowly put down the teacup and gave a clear answer. "Huh?!"
Hearing his agreement, not only Zhao Gui was stunned.
Even Ningguang, who made the request, and the unremarkable middle-aged female secretary behind her could not help but be stunned. "Really?"
Ningguang was well-informed, and quickly came to her senses and confirmed with Li Yan again.
Business is about bargaining, and she didn't expect to be able to directly reduce the price by 50% this time.
After all, she had given up a lot of interests in the previous two negotiations, but they didn't reach a complete agreement.
Unexpectedly, Li Yan agreed so straightforwardly this time, which shocked her and even made her feel unreal.
"Really."
Li Yan nodded slightly and chuckled: "But I have a condition, that is, I hope that after the price reduction of 50%, Miss Ningguang can increase the current total profit by at least double."
"Increase the profit by at least double?!"
The elegant smile that had been hanging on Ningguang's white jade face disappeared, and she showed emotion for the first time.
She was an extremely smart person, and naturally saw that Li Yan was not forcing her or shooting at random.
After the price reduction of 50%, the profit will be at least doubled than now, which means that her previous estimate was wrong.
The actual production capacity and strength of Taisu Pavilion are at least two or three times higher than what she knows.
"..."
Zhao Gui also looked at Li Yan, whom he worshipped like a god, with a look of astonishment, and was very surprised and confused.
Do the factories and shops he runs really have such a large production capacity?
"It seems that there will be a place for you in the next Seven Star Selection."
After coming back to her senses, Ningguang exclaimed with a smile, her eyes full of curiosity and surprise.
The Liyue Seven Stars were originally the seven largest merchants in Liyue.
Based on the information just learned, the power of Taisu Pavilion may have surpassed the sum of two or three Seven Stars, even she can't compare.
As the current Seven Star, she knows more about the difficulty and horror.
It is incredible that such a scale and strength can be achieved in just one year!
It may contain unimaginable secrets.
"The next Seven Stars..."
Li Yan chuckled and said, "After Miss Ningguang visits the factory of Taisu Pavilion tomorrow, we will draft a new contract."
"Thank you for your hospitality today, Miss Ningguang. I will take my leave now."
After saying that, he got up and left without waiting for Ningguang's response. Zhao Gui followed him.
"Oh, by the way, Miss Ningguang, the ointment you used today is very good."
When he reached the door, Li Yan did not stop, turned his back to Ningguang and waved his right hand, and left the Liuli Pavilion.
