"That's all I need." I took out a thin document from my bag: "I've checked that Ford in the United States can provide this kind of equipment, but unfortunately, if I buy this equipment through normal channels, they will never sell it to a Chinese company." So I can only rely on you. ”

Mike took the information and didn't look through it immediately, he looked at me and said, "I can help you ship this kind of equipment, but why don't you smuggle it directly into China?" Rather, smuggling to Thailand? Is it necessary to take a break in between? ”

"It's necessary." I nodded: "I have my reasons. ”

"What reason?"

I smiled, "Can I not say it?" ”

Mike looked at me solemnly, then shook his head, "No! I need a reasonable explanation - I need a reasonable reason before I can do anything. What's more, it's you asking me to do something for you right now—and it's not risk-free. ”

"Okay." I sighed, "Because I'm patriotic - is that enough?" I don't want to smuggle in China, so I'd rather smuggle the equipment to Thailand, and then declare it through the normal channels, let the equipment enter China through legal channels, and I will also pay taxes to the state! Essentially, I love my country, and I don't like smuggling to hurt the interests of the country. ”

"You're crazy...... Mike looked at me, shook his head and smiled wryly, "God, you're really a strange person." So if smuggling harms the interests of other countries, you don't care? ”

"Yes." I replied simply: "It's not my own country anyway, it has nothing to do with me - maybe you can think of me as a narrow nationalist, I don't care." ”

"Well, I accept your explanation."

"Thank you." I smiled.

"Don't be in such a hurry to thank me." Mike smiled, but there was something deep in his gaze: "I also need you to help me with something." ”

"What's the matter?" My heart sank.

Although I had been mentally prepared for a long time - someone like Mike would not help me with things in vain, he must have some conditions in exchange. So I was ready to wait for him to ask for it - and of course, I knew that his conditions would not be easy.

"According to our previous agreement in the United States, in the future, I will continue to flow the Dawson family's funds into your company for your investment business, and when the money is laundered, it will flow back to the United States through legal channels. In exchange, I need a share of your company, which is also a necessary excuse for me to flow money into your company. ”

"Reasonable." I nodded: "So how many shares are you going to want?" ”

"Forty percent." Mike whispered a number.

I looked out the window with a grim face, thought for a moment, and reported a number: "Fifteen!" ”

"Thirty-five!"

"Twenty!"

"Thirty-three! This is my last offer, and it is also the lowest reserve price my family has given me! Mike said coldly.

I smiled: "Twenty-five!" I'm sorry, but that's also my reserve price! You know, if I need funds, I still have a lot of channels, I have a good relationship with many banks in China, as well as Yuanda Group, and our relationship is extraordinary! ”

"Okay. Thirty! Thirty percent! Don't bargain, I'm not going to budge! Mike sighed.

I finally had a heartfelt smile on my face: "Deal!" Just 30 percent! ”

Mike sighed, "You know what? You're really crazy. The conditions we put forward are very reasonable, but you dare to bargain! ”

"Why not?"

"Chen Yang!" Mike stared at me: "Your company, your industry in China, plus your small factory, your entire industry is worth 50 million yuan at most, that is, only 6 million US dollars!" But we, our Dawson family, will provide you with tens of millions of dollars, maybe even hundreds of millions! That's enough money to buy a few companies like yours! We provide you with so much money and yet only take 30% of your company!! ”

"Don't say that, Mike." I said lightly: "I think this is a very reasonable exchange. My company is really small, but don't forget, although you can provide me with tens of millions of dollars to inject into my company, I have given you a chance to legalize this money! Anyway, you didn't give me the money to make money, if you want to make money, you might as well continue to sell drugs and smuggle...... I offer you a chance to legalize! What's more, you still have to get the money back! It's like a bank loan! ”

"Bank loans...... You don't get so many bank loans! Your current assets are too small and you don't have enough collateral, and you can only borrow tens of millions of yuan at most. Mike said coldly: "If nothing else, the batch of equipment you need now will cost you a lot of cash!" ”

"Alright, alright." I laughed smirkedly, "Mike, since we've all come to an agreement, why don't we have a good time?" Shall I treat you to dinner in the evening? I found a great restaurant here and the food there is quite good. ”

Mike suddenly laughed, and he laughed equally deceptively: "Since I have accepted your price, will you be able to grant me a small request for the sake of our friendship?" ”

"What requirements?" I immediately raised my vigilance.

Mike put away his smile and said, "My request is: when you return the funds to us after you have used them, the money will ...... You have to give this money directly to me, not to the family...... Do you see what I mean? ”

My heart sank, and I said coldly: "Of course I understand the difference, do you want to swallow this money?" …… Mike, I'm risking too much to do this...... Unless you give me a good reason. ”

"Okay." Mike's tone was very serious: "You know my situation in the family, some people don't want to see me inherit the position of the patriarch...... My father was supportive, but he wasn't in good health, and some of the more powerful family members had recently become less and less respectful of my father's authority – Buck was one of them. ”

"I understand." I nodded. Buck's daring to disobey the family's orders and insist on killing me not only shows that he wants revenge, but also shows that he is strong enough to ensure that even if he disobeys the family's orders, there will be no dangerous consequences.

"So ......" Mike's voice became muffled, "what my father means is that through this plan of ours, our cooperation, he hopes that I will be able to hold more real power. These funds flow out through the family, and when they are recovered, they go directly to me, because I am the heir to the family, so I can receive these funds in the name of righteousness, and the other people have no right to say anything, even if they are dissatisfied, they can't do anything, because after all, I am still the heir, as long as they don't officially rebel for a day, they can't do anything to me. And I can take this opportunity to control the family's financial lifeline and fight for more chips for the future - this is what my father meant. ”

"Reasonable." I nodded, thought for a moment, and then said, "Okay, I can accept your explanation, but you know what? I'm too risky to do that! Those members of the clan who oppose you, they may not be able to do anything to you, but they can skip you and deal directly with me! They won't watch you take control of the family's economic lifeline, they will definitely find some way to sabotage it - they can't deal with you, they can't kill you, but they can't kill me? I'm just an ordinary businessman. ”

"I understand." Mike nodded: "But you are in China, and it is not so easy to kill you in China!" Not to mention anything else, even if they send their family's gunmen to China to find you, China's gun control is famous all over the world, not to mention, a foreigner with yellow hair and blue eyes, if he wants to kill people in China, it is too difficult and too conspicuous, do you understand what I mean? And, if they find a killer, it can only be an assassination, and I'll get the news, I'll let you know beforehand, and I'll protect you. ”

"But that doesn't completely avoid my risk, Mike." I looked him in the eye and said lightly.

"Okay." Mike simply said, "Tell me about your conditions." After thinking about it, he added: "Don't mention the conditions that are too excessive." ”

"It's simple." I said lightly: "Thirty percent just now, reduced to twenty-five percent, it's as simple as that!" ”

Michael's face changed slightly, and then his eyes narrowed, and his gaze at me became sharper.

For a moment, I even felt chills run through my body - Mike's gaze, I had seen it in his eyes when I watched him kill.

"Okay." Mike said lightly: "I promise your conditions." He withdrew that gaze and whispered, "You're a good bargain, and you're smart—but smart makes me like you and hate you." ”

"Huh." I smiled faintly and didn't say anything.

Mike took a deep breath, and suddenly a pleasant smile appeared on his face.

"Okay, now that we're done talking about work, can we say something happy? What does the hotel you mentioned look like? …………”

He smiled very naturally, as if what had just happened had never happened.

During the whole time of our conversation, Yang Wei kept driving, didn't say a word, and didn't even glance behind him. But I found that when Mike changed the topic and mentioned the hotel, Yang Wei's brows inadvertently wrinkled slightly......
