“Please come in.” Tara turned around and let him in.

After he went in, he realized that her house was huge. He estimated that it should be about 180 square meters. The European-styled decoration and furniture made it look very luxurious.

How rich.

He sighed inwardly.

After greeting and making him sit down, Tara poured a cup of water for him and sat beside him.

Her soft body leaned against his.

He had never held a girl’s hand before. At that moment, he couldn’t help but feel nervous.

Sensing his anxiousness, Tara was ecstatic.

His reaction let her quickly catch a piece of information—although he was very experienced in his work, he was definitely a rookie when it came to dealing with women.

I’ve found a gem!

“Samuel, what do you want to talk to me about? There’s no one else here. You can bring up whatever you want to talk about.” Tara turned her body around and looked at him. From this angle, he was able to look at everything through her wide-open top.

He gasped inwardly. This woman was truly bold. If she encountered someone with poor mental fortitude, they would easily lose control and force themselves on her.

Taking a deep breath, he avoided her gaze and took out four bottles of liquor and a few printed flyers from his bag, placing them neatly on the coffee table.

“It’s actually very simple. I’m a salesperson at Ruby Liquor Factory. The liquor we produce is made of pure grain and of excellent quality. The price is decent as well, making it a great gift or for your own enjoyment. I hope your supermarket can purchase our liquor and promote it for a period of time.” He seriously made his request.

“!!!”

Tara had made countless speculations about his request, but she never expected him to make such a request!

Over years of hard work, her supermarket was worth more than 31 million dollars.

The 31 million dollars was about to go down the drain. But it was Samuel who had gone to great lengths to help her recover her losses, and his condition was for her to sell his liquor?

Impossible!

Looking at his handsome face, she instantly realized something.

This young man must be too thin-skinned and embarrassed to ask me for anything more!

“Samuel, you’re so funny. If you have any requests, just tell me directly. As long as it’s not against the law, I should be able to do as you say.” When she said this, her entire person was about to stick to his body.

Feeling the pressure coming from his arm, his heartbeat accelerated.

However, when he recalled her secret, he couldn’t help but calm down. This woman provided for eight university students. On average, she provided for two each year. He didn’t dare to get involved with such a person.

He dodged to the side and said firmly, “Ms. Braun, I’m not joking. This is my request. If you agree, we can work together. If not, then forget it.”

Seeing his serious expression, Tara was stunned for a long time. After a while, she asked, “You’re helping me to extend my supermarket’s lease just because you want to provide liquor to us?”

“Yes.” he nodded.

“And you don’t have any other requests?” she asked again.

“No,” he said firmly.

Tara was caught between laughter and tears.

She had been nervous for the entire afternoon, thinking that he would make an outrageous request. Then, she looked forward to it for the whole night, thinking that he had some lewd thoughts about her.

After all this, he only wanted to promote his liquor. Who would even believe her if she talked about this?

No matter what, she had to return the favor.

As the boss lady of a supermarket, she had the right to purchase the liquor. She asked, “What’s the quality and price of the liquor?”

He patiently explained, “We have two degrees of liquor—53 and 43. Newly brewed liquor of 53 degrees is priced at 23 dollars per box, and 21 dollars per box for the 43 degrees. For the liquor stored over a year, the price will be 30 dollars per box for the 53 degrees, and 28 dollars for the 43 degrees. As for the rest, I didn’t bring any samples, only a promotional picture. The liquor stored for over two years is priced at 38 dollars per box for the 53 degrees, and 36 dollars per box for the 43 degrees…”

After introducing a few years’ worth of wine, he said, “Our liquor is made from pure grain. The quality is almost the best within the same price range. Ms. Braun, you can give it a try.”

After saying that, he took out a bottle of liquor and poured it into a glass. He then said, “Look at the droplets in the glass. The liquor is evenly distributed and has a strong fragrance.”

Tara had been running a supermarket for many years. Although she wasn’t in charge of purchasing, her taste wasn’t worse than the purchasing department’s manager.

After observing for a while, she came to a rough conclusion. “The quality is considered above average. It can’t be compared to big brands, though your price is much cheaper than theirs. The price-performance ratio is still very high. Since you’ve helped me a lot, I’ll give you a promise. In the next three years, our supermarket will focus on promoting your liquor.”

Pausing for a moment, she continued, “We have the highest-selling capacity in the entire city. How about this? 300 boxes of freshly-brewed and one-year-old bottles respectively. 50 boxes each of liquor between two and four years! Give me an address and I’ll get the purchasing department to sign the papers tomorrow.”

After Samuel left the address of the liquor factory, he stood up and said, “Thank you, Ms. Braun. I won’t disturb you any further since it’s already so late. I’ll go back first.”

Seeing that he was about to leave, she felt lost.

Am I lacking charisma that badly? My hint was so obvious, and yet this kid wasn’t moved at all.

Compared to him, she suddenly felt that the male university students she provided for were dull.

…

Samuel returned to his rented apartment, and it was already 10:00 PM after he washed up.

Lying on the bed, he calculated. The total amount ordered by Fresh was close to 45,000 dollars. He could get a commission of 6,700 dollars.

His total commission had reached 26,000 dollars. His father’s surgery fees were no longer as heavy as a mountain.

It was just that there was only one Tier 1 supermarket left. It would probably be difficult to rely on the supermarkets to increase their daily orders in the future.

Fortunately, large supermarkets were great at selling. After the first batch of liquor was sold out, he could still get a commission next time. However, it might take more than a month or two to earn 62,000 dollars.

Thinking about it, he gradually fell asleep.

The next morning.

At Ruby Liquor Factory.

He arrived at the company and analyzed the liquor market in New York City while waiting for Fresh’s Purchasing Manager.

At 9:50 AM, his phone rang. When the call connected, he raised his eyebrows. It was the person he was waiting for. He had arrived.

The Purchasing Manager was Dustin Wills, and he had a lot of experience in this field.

As he was personally instructed by his boss, Dustin didn’t dare to make things difficult for Samuel. He took out the company’s official seal, stamped it, and signed the purchase contract.

After everything was settled, Samuel smiled and said, “Dustin, let’s go for a meal.”

Dustin waved his hands and said, “No, thank you, Mr. Walker. I still have to meet another client right after this. I’ll treat you to a meal next time.”

It seemed like he really had something on as he didn’t stay at the liquor factory for long. After signing the contract, he didn’t even pay Arielle a visit and left in a hurry.

Even though this purchase was personally ordered by his boss, it seemed like the boss of a small liquor factory still wasn’t held in high regard by him.

After he left, Samuel took the purchase order and went looking for Arielle.

Arielle was entertaining a guest.

The woman seemed to be about the same age as her. She had fair skin and adorable baby fat on her face. She was also one of Arielle’s few best friends in New York City.

“Who would send bottles of mineral water to a friend, Heather?” Arielle stared at the boxes of mineral water on the table and couldn’t help rolling her eyes.

Heather couldn’t take it anymore. She took out a bottle of mineral water and exaggerated. “This is no ordinary mineral water. Look at this fashionable and exquisite packaging. This clear and sweet water quality is not something an ordinary person can afford to taste! You should be content!”
