Chapter 1303: Admit Defeat

Tang Chen exclaimed, “Send them gifts? They played such dirty tricks? Master, will we end up being screwed?”

Tang Ze shook his head and said, “These people are either tycoons or nobles; otherwise, they are people with high political status. The assets they own can’t even be easily counted. Those gifts are precious to ordinary people, but to them, no matter how precious they are, they are not worth their family’s reputation. So, there’s no need to worry about fairness.”

Only then did Tang Chen feel slightly relieved…

Ishii’s face was slapped, and he was extremely displeased. He cursed the decision-maker in secret, “They should have followed what I said. Hire some judges who can be controlled. There wouldn’t be such nonsense!”

Song Xian couldn’t take the group’s incessant pleading. Helpless, he could only distribute the last bit of tea to these people.

The nine judges quickly finished it in one go, then pointed to a hot water flask beside them. “We can make another pot…”

Song Xian: “…”

He finally understood what was happening. Helpless, he said, “We are in a competition. After it’s over, I’ll leave this flask here.”

When the nine judges heard this, their eyes lit up and they turned around. Although they averaged about 60–70 years of age, they quickly returned to their seats like a gust of wind!

Just as Ishii was about to ask what the outcome was, he saw the nine judges lower their heads and start writing. Then, without hesitation, they raised their placards: “China!”

The nine judges had unanimously chosen China!

In other words, all nine points were given to China, China had won completely!

Not only Ishii, even the audience who came to watch the show subconsciously rubbed their eyes and said in disbelief, “This… I’m not dreaming, right?”

Ishii could not help but exclaim, “Judges, aren’t you going to consider it? Did you write wrong?”

The French master rolled his eyes at Ishii and said, “We aren’t blind yet. We know what we wrote and which tea we voted for. To be honest, your Hiei Premium Tea is not bad. It’s domineering and very stimulating.”

The little old man added, “Indeed, Hiei Premium Tea is the best tea I’ve ever had.”

The German master said, “The Hiei Premium Tea’s domineering trait is like a drug. It’s addictive after drinking it. It has to be the number one tea in the mortal world!”

…

Upon hearing this, Ishii was even more puzzled. Pointing at everyone’s placards, he said, “In that case, why did you vote for China? I refuse to accept this!”

The German master laughed out loud. “Hiei Premium Tea is a tea of the mortal world, but the Song family’s tea is a tea from the heavens! How can it be compared?”

Ishii was instantly dumbfounded. Tea from the heavens?

Everyone was stunned. There was such a huge gap between them?

The little old man said, “The Song family’s tea is mild like jade—peaceful and tranquil. The fragrance stays in the mouth, but delights the heart. The sampling is no longer about the taste, but the concept of tea itself. It’s good tea!”

“It’s cooling. Drinking it will make one feel less frustrated. Once the heart calms down, I feel better. This is what I call good tea.”

“Although Hiei Premium Tea is more intense, and there’s all kinds of excitement when drinking it, it only makes one feel a little gloomy after a while. This tea is different. From the beginning to the end, it gives that sense of tranquility. It’s like you’re in a sea of bamboo, listening to the wind, the rain, and the rustling of the bamboo leaves. It’s so comfortable!”

…

As soon as the praises came out, Ishii’s expression turned even uglier.

However, Song Ming’s smile grew wider and wider. Finally, he laughed out loud. He patted Ishii on the shoulder and said, “Mr. Ishii, welcome to China. Where are you staying tonight? I’ll reimburse you.”

Ishii was so angry that he gritted his teeth and said, “I’m not convinced… Boss Qian said that your new tea is Seven-Inch Bitter Fragrance. I’ve drunk that tea before; it definitely doesn’t taste like this! What exactly is it?”

The moment that was said, Boss Qian, who was sitting below, was so scared that his legs gave way and he collapsed onto the ground!

Ishii’s words were equivalent to selling him out!

It happened right in front of everyone!

Boss Qian thought to himself, “It’s over!”

With that said, Ishii immediately regretted it and was about to remedy the situation…

He saw Song Ming slap him and shout, “Everyone heard it. Ishii personally said that he knows what new tea our family secretly cultivated is. He even drank it before! And all of this was provided by Boss Qian! Boss Qian, you traitor, what else can you say?”

Song Ming turned around and glared at Boss Qian furiously.

Upon hearing this, all the Chinese present were infuriated. Although the Hiei family was despicable, they were competitors. A commercial competition was like a war. Only victory mattered, so what fairness was there? To use everything they had might be hateful, but it was still understandable.

However, Boss Qian’s way of doing things was to sell out his country. He was a traitor!

Since ancient times, who was the most hated? It wasn’t the enemies but traitors!

Facing everyone’s furious gaze, Boss Qian roared, “Bullsh*t! Ishii, you are speaking nonsense! Who told you about Seven-Inch Bitter Fragrance? Don’t accuse me!”

Ishii was already on the verge of despair. He had bet everything on this competition, only to lose!

When he returned to the Hiei family, what awaited him was an eternal cold reception!

He was destined to be doomed!

Since it was over, what worries did he have? He looked at Song Xian and asked, “Master Song, I would like to know what tea is that?”

Song Xian smiled and said, “This is Frost Bamboo Tea from Mt. One Finger.”

“Impossible!” Boss Qian nearly fainted when he heard that.

Ishii gave him a fierce glare and said bitterly, “It lives up to its reputation.”

Following that, Ishii took out a USB flash drive and pointed at Boss Qian. “Slander? Just take a look at this and you’ll know. I have all the images and audio that was meant to control Boss Qian. Now, since we’ve lost and Boss Qian is no longer of use, I’ll give it to you! It’s a form of gratitude for answering my question.”

With that said, Ishii threw the USB flash drive to Song Ming. Song Ming handed it to the organizer and the organizer immediately inserted it into a machine. Immediately, the big screen played the content.

Boss Qian and Ishii sat on the tatami mat. The former took out a brocade box and said with a smile, “Mr. Ishii, I risked my life for our friendship. I came up with all sorts of methods to steal the Seven-Inch Bitter Fragrance from the Song family. This is also the tea they prepare to use for the competition this time. Take a look and see how it compares to your Hiei Premium Tea.”

Upon seeing this scene, Boss Qian’s face turned ashen…

Someone shouted, “Beat this traitor!”

The next moment, the people around him stood up, picked up a chair and smashed down.

Boss Qian screamed and pleaded for help. Unfortunately, everyone present pretended not to see it.

The Japanese also looked down on traitors. He naturally didn’t take a second look at a useless dog.

The Chinese hated traitors, so they didn’t care.

With the outcome determined, Master Chiyo stood up and said, “We’ve lost. We lost fair and square.”
