Chapter 546: Threat
Peter actually sat on the ground and raised the price, which was completely inconsistent with the spirit of the contract, and for the merchant, it would damage his reputation.
Mr. Sun was very dissatisfied, and asked on the spot: "Mr. Peter, maybe you have the pain of raising the price, but in the end, you are damaging your aristocratic image, please think twice!" ”
These so-called aristocrats have always valued their reputation, and Mr. Sun had no choice but to take this out and talk about it.
According to their previous agreement, this time they need to purchase more than a dozen medium-sized warships, two of the largest and newest warships. In total, there are nearly 20 ships, which is not a small amount, and the money required is more than 100 million yuan.
If Peter had risen a little more, it would have been astronomical. As such a wronged leader, being slaughtered at will like this, no one will be happy if they encounter it.
Mr. Sun tried to convince Peter that he would not raise the price. But he obviously underestimated Peter's determination, no, hearing that Mr. Sun was talking about his aristocratic status again, he immediately turned his face: "Dear Mr. Sun, if you can't accept the price I offered, then we can terminate this transaction at any time." ”
Mr. Sun's face changed suddenly, and he immediately fell into a dilemma, the Beiyang regime urgently needed these warships. Nowadays, the sea is becoming more and more unpeaceful, and without these warships, the Beiyang regime would not have the right to control the sea, which is very disadvantageous.
After thinking about it, Mr. Sun couldn't make up his mind, he looked at Ye Shaolong and asked him with his eyes what his plan was.
Ye Shaolong knew that Mr. Sun did not make two preparations this time, but only traded with Peter's family, and did not prepare for the future at all. Thinking that this news was also in Peter's hands, they would dare to threaten it like this.
Ye Shaolong had a plan in his heart, stepped forward and came to Peter, and introduced himself with a smile: "Hello Mr. Peter, I am the leader of the Yejiabao Army, and I am also one of the representatives of the Beiyang regime this time. Based on the price increase you just said, I'm sorry, we can't accept it. ”
When Peter saw a young man coming up, he was very disdainful: "OK, then our trading will stop immediately." ”
Ye Shaolong's eyes flashed with a hint of fierceness, and he smiled coldly: "It's no problem to stop at all, but Mr. Peter must return the deposit we gave before, ten million taels of silver, not a tael." ”
Peter did not back down, and immediately laughed: "You can't buy it, we have already built the battleship, and now you have to get the deposit back, sorry, it's impossible." ”
Ye Shaolong was not in a hurry, and sneered again: "Mr. Peter thinks that in this way, he can hack our ten million taels of silver, no, no, no, you underestimate us too much." If you don't return these ten million taels of silver to us, or sell us the battleship at the price agreed before. In that hour we will have someone stab another general about Mr. Peter's dealings with us. ”
Peter's face changed slightly, and he carefully looked at Ye Shaolong's face, as if he was gauging whether Ye Shaolong was lying.
But there was no flaw in the expression on Ye Shaolong's face, and Peter naturally didn't see anything. After hesitating for a long time, Peter finally didn't dare to bet, his tone was not as tough as just now.
"Haha, dear Mr. Ye, we can still negotiate the price!" Peter's face changed faster than he could turn a book.
Ye Shaolong was reassured, he was not prepared to compromise like this, and said with a smile: "Since Mr. Peter is willing to sit down and talk fairly, it would be better." But first of all, I would like to state that we have to give us a little more on the original price. If Mr. Peter can't do that, then there's no need for us to talk about it. ”
Peter's face immediately turned hideous, and his calm and aristocratic bearing was completely left behind at this moment. I didn't expect the young man in front of me to be so sophisticated, and he had to be unforgiving.
Mr. Sun saw that Ye Shaolong took revenge on Peter fiercely, and several people were very relieved, but Ye Shaolong's inch by inch, they were also worried that they would completely annoy Peter when they waited.
But it was clear that Mr. Sun's concerns did not arise, and Peter seemed to really care that the deal would not be known to their political enemies.
So, in the end, in desperation, Peter agreed to give a little profit, and lowered the original price with the price he had just proposed to increase.
Ye Shaolong accepted it when he saw it, and did not force Peter again, but when he paid the money, he discussed with Mr. Sun, obtained his consent, and directly took out half of the money that was given up and stuffed it to Peter privately.
Peter was very surprised, but Mao Wenlong smiled and said, "Dear Mr. Peter, this is what you deserve, you have saved us a lot of money." And I, Ye Shaolong, am a person who knows how to repay kindness, you see these are our sincerity. We have always retaliated against our enemies. At that time, we were warm and generous to our friends! ”
For Ye Shaolong, half of these unexpected money is given away, and they still have half to earn. By the way, it is a good thing that I can get closer to Peter, and there is no reason not to do it.
Sure enough, Peter still had a bitter gourd face just now, and he looked at the large stack of silver tickets that Ye Shaolong stuffed him, and his heart was already happy.
He didn't expect that the money was originally his, even if Ye Shaolong took out half of it and gave it to him privately, he still lost half of it.
But Peter is not without any benefits, after all, this money was given by Ye Shaolong in private, which means that this money is all obtained by Peter privately.
There is no need to share it with others, although the public will lose something because the price is cut, but those are nothing compared to Peter's income.
The transaction went very smoothly next, Peter didn't make things difficult for Ye Shaolong anymore, fifteen medium-sized warships, and two large warships could be picked up at any time.
When Peter left, he removed all his men, and the small, deserted dock was temporarily taken over by the League's men stationed in Xiangjiang.
Mr. Sun, Ye Shaolong and others returned to Xiangrui Restaurant, and immediately sent a telegram asking the people from the provincial capital to come and drive the battleship away as soon as possible. After all, here in Xiangjiang, there may be accidents at any time.
On the same day, Mr. Sun hurriedly went back to China, but Ye Shaolong stayed temporarily. He plans to stay in Xiangjiang for a while, and if possible, he also wants to buy some properties right away so that he can prepare for the relocation of his family in the future.
Ye Shaolong's means of negotiating with Peter were later learned by Fluke from Mr. Sun. Now he is even more optimistic about Ye Shaolong, and when he heard that he intends to buy a property in Xiangjiang, he was immediately very pleased to take him to meet the bosses in the business world.
