Early the next morning, Scrooge and Rockefeller, accompanied by Carter, arrived at the Stru Company. Due to the recent bad business conditions, weapons could not be bought, so the factory was basically suspended, except for a few people guarding the machine, there were few people in the whole factory, and it seemed very quiet.

Scroo waited for Scrooge in the company's office. His secretary, Duke, took Scrooge and Rockefeller and Carter straight into the office.

Walking through the door, Scrooge noticed that the office was still luxuriously decorated, with crystal chandeliers hanging on the roof, and an oil painting on the wall against the fireplace depicting a group of white cavalry fighting the Indians. However, the desk in front of him was definitely high-end, and although Scrooge couldn't recognize what kind of wood the table was made of, the boss's desktop was actually made of a whole thick plank, and it was also made of transparent paint, which made the gorgeous pattern of the large board look particularly clear - this thing was definitely not cheap.

"You're Mr. Scrooge?" Seeing such a half-old child coming in, Stru was a little surprised.

"Yes, I'm Scrooge." Scrooge walked over to Stroud and sat down across from him.

"But are you really qualified to talk about such a business now?" Stru was still not reassured, "According to your age, are you capable of civil affairs now?" ”

"The final agreement will be signed by my father." "But I'm the one who counts." As for my ability to pay, I have a certificate from Morgan Bank here. ”

"So how could you be interested in my company?" Stroo asked again.

"I think that in the recent form, your company is running a business that is profitable. And your current predicament is mainly due to not so good luck. Scrooge added another sentence in his heart: "And you are targeted by me." ”

"So in your mind, how much is my company worth?" Stroo asked.

"If your company is running normally, it's certainly worth a lot of money. But as far as I know, your company is now in a debt crisis. So as to the question of how much your company is worth, as far as I know, if your company goes bankrupt and auctions, I estimate that the proceeds may not be able to fully pay off the debts. So, if I were to take on those debts of yours, IMHO, I'm afraid I'll only be able to give you some symbolic price. ”

"Your information is inaccurate, my capital chain does have a zài problem, but it is too much to say that I am insolvent. The money borrowed is not wasted, it is just turned into raw materials and machines. ”

"But the price of raw materials and machines is constantly falling, and your products can't be sold right now. IMHO, the products you have in stock right now are unsellable garbage. And because of the media attacks, as long as you are in the company for a day, it will be difficult for the public to restore confidence in the company's products. Even if you leave the company, it will take some time for the company to regain its reputation. So, taking over your company, I'm also very risky. "Scrooge continues to disparage Stroudge's company.

This disparagement did not come as a surprise to Struo. In fact, such disparagement confirms Scrooge's sincerity. If Scrooge just blindly praised his company, it would be insincere. Of course, he can't let others belittle the company, after all, he still wants to sell it for a good price.

"My company is not so unbearable, not to mention anything else, for the key patents alone, we have the right to use the central firearms patent, and ......" Stroo is naturally trying to find bright spots for his company.

"The patents for the center's ammunition are going to rot on the streets, and they will expire soon. It's not worth the money! Rockefeller interrupted him with a blank face.

"Well, we still have a group of experienced workers in our company. We still have ......."

"Under the current conditions, it won't cost much money to poach them." Rockefeller said coldly again. Then, everyone argued again.

……

"It's not time to talk about it yet." "I think we'd better go inside the factory and come back and talk." ”

"Okay." Stru also knows that such a deal cannot be finalized immediately.

"In addition, I need to know the number of your company's various business conditions." Scrooge said.

……

A few hours later, Scrooge and his party left Scrooge, and for more than a week, Scrooge did not contact Streo. However, Rockefeller, who was on the sidelines to help Scrooge on a voluntary basis, was not surprised. At this time, the important thing is to calm down, whoever takes the initiative to come to the door first will have the upper hand in the subsequent negotiations.

This kind of competition is inherently bad for Stru. It won't be long before his loan is due. He knew that under the current circumstances, he would definitely lose out in the negotiations with Scrooge. The best way to change this situation is undoubtedly to find a bidder. So during these days, he is also looking for new buyers everywhere he can.

To say that the hard work paid off, it really allowed Strew to find a new buyer. One named Warren? The millionaire of Draenor has expressed interest in his company. The news made Streo feel empowered, and after a round of negotiations with the venerable gentleman's representative, Stru felt that he could forget about Scrooge. Mr. Warrendrano offered a modest price, but it was a little more generous than Scrooge's intentions.

Warrendrano's representatives left with almost all of Stroud's hopes, leaving with contracts ready to be signed. However, after the departure of the delegate with all the hopes of Stroud, there was no news for several days. At first, Strut told himself that it was because it took time to get from New York to Cleveland. However, he couldn't help but worry that there would be any changes in this. This ordeal kept Stroo awake at night and exhausted.

After six days, Stru finally waited for the news: Mr. Warrendrano had abandoned the deal. The news hit Stru like a bullet and almost killed him.

In two days, two days before the loan is due, and in such a situation, the bank will never agree to his request for a moratorium. By that time......

It was already three o'clock in the afternoon when I got the bad news, and under normal circumstances, the day was already over, and the time left was not enough to discuss any complicated issues. But Sturf couldn't help it, and he drove the carriage himself, (the coachman had already been fired to save money) to Scrooge's company. However, the company told him that Mr. Scrooge was not there, that he had gone out of town, and that he would not be back until at least noon tomorrow. If there is something to do, you can come back tomorrow at noon.

Stryo knew that this was Scrooge's ploy, and the purpose was to stall for time, to let time overwhelm him, so that he could squeeze more money out of him. He knew that Scrooge was probably in the company, and he might be watching him secretly from that window. He even suspected that the representative of Mr. Warrendrano was also a ghost. But what's the use of knowing, and what's the use of guessing right? In this situation, you can only stretch your neck and ask someone to cut it, and the only hope is that people's knife skills are better and more simple.

By noon the next day, Streo was waiting at the door of Scrooge's company, and someone reported the situation to Scrooge.

"He's completely out of order, and basically wants you to surrender. Scrooge, your deal can basically be considered a success. From the gap in the curtain of the window on the second floor by the street, Rockefeller looked coldly at Scrooge who was waiting outside, and said to Scrooge.

Scrooge looked up and looked at the clock hanging on the wall.

"Well, it's almost time, we can go talk to him." Scrooge stood up and walked towards the door of his office.

"Well, it's time to kill the pigs." Rockefeller had a rare touch of humor.

Exiting the office door, Scrooge headed for the back door.

"Which way to go? The reception room is over here. Rockefeller said.

"Oh, if you don't sneak out the back door first, how can it look like I've just come back from out of town?" Scrooge explained with a grin. He was glad that Rockefeller would praise him with something like "My friend, you are so despicable and shameless," which would give him great satisfaction in vanity.

However, this wish did not come true. Rockefeller stopped, looked at him, and said, "Do you need it?" Do you think he doesn't know that you didn't leave at all? Do we still need to think about what he thinks? Even if he really thinks you've just come back, is it any good for the negotiations? No, it doesn't do any good! He just feels that we still value him and will give him more strength to persevere. So, leave those excuses alone and go straight to the reception room! ”

"My friend, you are so despicable and shameless!" Scrooge said.

"Can I see this as a compliment to me? Scrooge? But we are each other. Rockefeller smiled and walked over to the reception room.

……

The negotiations didn't take long, and as Scrooge had expected, he bought the shotgun company for a surprisingly low price of $2ooo, and a few days later the company was to be renamed the MacDonald Shotgun Factory.
