Because Ding Maofu understood that the boss of any enterprise could not be seen just by anyone who wanted to; especially since Shunhua Restaurant was an old and well-established name in Provincial City and had been in business for many years, the boss would absolutely not appear here lightly without particularly important matters.

Therefore, the young man before him was quite strange.

He was looking for the boss and didn't directly go to the reception to say so, not only acting sneakily, but it was also apparent that he didn't even have the boss's phone number.

So what did he want with the boss of Shunhua Restaurant?

Because whether it was for booking a meal or discussing a deal, one could completely rely on contacting the manager of Shunhua Restaurant. Seeking out the boss was a bit odd.

"Hello, sir, our boss isn't here. May I ask, what would you like to order?" After the server gave a standardized response, the tense-looking young man cautiously glanced around. The moment his gaze met Ding Maofu's, he immediately averted his eyes and then said, "Uh, anything is fine. Just bring me two dishes and a bowl of rice."

Though slightly surprised, the server still recommended two dishes, which he immediately agreed to.

After taking the order, the server smiled and said, "Sir, if you have business to discuss with Shunhua Restaurant, our manager is here. I can call him over for you."

The young man seemed nervous and after a short contemplation, he said, "Alright, call your manager over. I have a big business deal I'd like to discuss with him."

Upon hearing this, the server smiled and turned to leave.

At this moment, the young man turned his head and saw Ding Maofu gazing at him with gleaming eyes.

The young man glared at him impatiently and then turned his head away.

At this time, Ding Maofu smiled. He scooted his chair closer to the young man's table and warmly said, "Hello, friend, my name is Ding. I'm the general manager of Shunhua Catering Limited Company. I overheard you saying that you wanted to do business with Shunhua Restaurant. If you're willing to chat with me, I might be interested."

Upon hearing this, the young man impatiently said, "Shunhua Catering, isn't that just a breakfast business? My deal doesn't involve you."

Ding Maofu's eyes lit up, and, raising an eyebrow, he said, "Actually, Shunhua doesn't just do breakfast. We are also very interested in all kinds of exquisite recipe formulas and are willing to pay a high price for them."

At Ding Maofu's words, the young man was taken aback. His gaze immediately became wary, and after a brief silence, he got up and left.

Seeing this, Ding Maofu's eyes brightened. He pulled out a business card from his pocket and, while chasing after the young man, said, "Sir, don't be in such a hurry to leave. Here's my card. If you ever need it, give me a call."

Seeing that the young man didn't pay any attention to him, he became even more anxious and hurriedly said, "We're looking to buy any gourmet food formula at a fair price, and our company is quite powerful with a lot of cash on hand."

These words made the young man stop in his tracks. He then gave Ding Maofu a nervous glance, snatched the business card from his hand, and walked away without looking back.

Seeing him take the business card, Ding Maofu breathed a sigh of relief, his eyes sparkling.

Now, looking at the confused manager of Shunhua Restaurant coming over with the server, he asked in surprise, "Where is he?"

The server was astonished, "He was just sitting here."

The manager, unhappy, turned and left.

Watching their departing backs, a thrill zipped through Ding Maofu.

He even crossed his legs and hummed a cheerful ditty.

Almost at the same time, the young man holding Ding Maofu's business card left Shunhua Restaurant, turned the corner, and slid into a black Iveco.

"Hooked!" The young man excitedly passed the business card to the long-legged beauty sitting on the car seat, wearing a duck-billed cap.

With sharp eyes and a touch of surprise, she said, "That was so easy?"

Upon hearing this, the middle-aged father and son who had been arguing earlier started chuckling.

"It's unbelievable. We just said one sentence to that Ding Maofu, and he took the bait. Who would have thought it would be so simple?"

"Yeah," said the young man, his eyes shining with excitement. "I love this feeling. Without saying anything, just glowering at him coldly, then mocking him, he came at us like a rabid dog. Moreover, when I left, he chased after me saying they had a lot of cash."

The elder laughed, looking at the long-legged beauty and said, "See? That's the strength of the new player. He didn't need a scripted dialogue, he didn't need a whole crowd trying to convince him, and he didn't even need to make any contact throughout the process to make his target do what he wanted."

"So this new player's game is entirely different from ours. We play with experience, Skill, while he plays with the human heart."

At the elder's words, the long-legged beauty Liu Mei slightly furrowed her brows and said, "I admit, Shen Qiang's method is indeed bizarre but effective. However, this approach carries significant risks. Once there's a mistake…"

The elder laughed, cutting her off as he looked at the long-legged beauty, "Should an accident occur, at most the final contact will fail. Since there has been no communication and no initiative in the deal, not only does it look very credible."

"More importantly, Ding Maofu now thinks he's in control. We haven't told him anything, so even if he realizes something, the worst outcome is an aborted operation. He wouldn't be able to expose us or be certain of anything. Therefore, Shen Qiang's arrangement doesn't need a contingency plan."

The long-legged beauty sighed and then said in a firm tone, "You're right. Compared to the traps we've set in the past, where we needed many direct contacts, then convincing the target, that method is indeed inferior to Shen Qiang's approach, which completely avoids direct confrontation."

"But now, the whole plan has only progressed a third of the way. Next, we still need to make contact with the other party. So if you're already thinking that he's better than me, it's too early to say."

The elder smiled, "You are one of the top players in this industry; Shen Qiang is not better than you, his way of thinking is just a little different. And his character has created his unique style. So, from the beginning, I said, try a different style, and it may bring you new insights."

The long-legged beauty laughed, "Okay, I think you're right. After seeing Shen Qiang's tactics, I indeed have a lot of thoughts now, but I can't quite sort them out at the moment. So next..."

Pulling out a stack of cards from her bag, the long-legged beauty smiled and said, "According to Shen Qiang's arrangement, you can go have some fun now. Swimming pool, hot girls, gourmet food, he's covering everything. But we must proceed with the next step at nine o'clock the morning after next and get the money."
