Chapter 766 — Negotiation Shu
The Blossom Guardian · Page 1 of 2
"Two million? That little?" Shen Yushu spoke up. She was turning it over in her mind: she could not have come for nothing, could she? She had to give full play to Negotiation Shu's advantages! But the truth was, she really did not know how to negotiate. Claiming to be Negotiation Shu that morning had been nothing but nonsense; in reality she had simply come along for the fun of it.
"Of course, two million is only the figure we proposed. If you find it unsuitable, we are open to discussion." Su Jiaonang had not expected that before Tang's mother could say a word, Shen Yushu had spoken first!
Even so, he kept one principle firmly in mind at this moment: no matter what demands the other side's people raised, the first order of business was to steady them. Once Zhang Yuzhou had finished installing the time bomb, everything would be smooth sailing.
"You should at least give us two hundred million, shouldn't you?" Shen Yushu thought it over, and suddenly recalled a phrase often heard on television — ask for the sky, settle on the ground. So she simply threw out the figure of two hundred million, which promptly sent Su Jiaonang rolling his eyes in shock!
Two hundred million? Why don't you just go rob a bank? Two hundred million? Isn't that a bit much? Is that place of yours a bungalow or a skyscraper?
Zhao Qibing frowned as well. Although he had already decided that he could agree to a reasonable number of Wei Zhao's outrageous demands, surely it could not go this far beyond reason? Two hundred million? What kind of joke was this? Even if he agreed, Wei Zhao would never believe it — it would only make him suspicious of his motives!
So Zhao Qibing could only say, "Little girl, at that price, you don't seem to be bargaining in good faith, do you?"
"Oh, but I heard your skyscraper went boom and collapsed, and you didn't even care — you just built another one!" Shen Yushu blinked and said, "A building like that must be worth at least a hundred million, right? So asking for two hundred million isn't much at all!"
Zhao Qibing's eyes went wide. What kind of nonsense was this? Those were two entirely different matters! And "the skyscraper went boom and collapsed"? Did he want it to collapse? If not for that bastard Wei Zhao, why would his skyscraper ever have collapsed?
Zhao Qibing was so furious his teeth itched; he wished he could bite Wei Zhao to death in one go.
"The skyscraper is worth only a hundred million, and your bungalow — is it a house of gold and silver? You think it's worth two hundred million?" Zhao Qibing scowled.
Beside them, Tang's mother's eyes had gone wide as well. Were these two here to negotiate at all? They had plainly come to make trouble! If they kept this up and made the man angry, what would happen if he refused to pay a single cent?
But Wei Zhao had not spoken a word, and Tang's mother had no way to say anything either. She could only pray silently: two million would already be good enough — please don't let even the two million go down the drain!
"If your skyscraper collapses one more time, that makes two hundred million, doesn't it?" Shen Yushu counted on her fingers, doing her arithmetic. "When is your skyscraper going to collapse next? Be sure not to forget to invite me to watch."
"What kind of calculation is that?" Zhao Qibing was beside himself with rage. He wanted to demand whether Shen Yushu had come to make trouble. But then he remembered that these people before him would soon be blown to bits by the bomb, and his mood instantly turned cheerful again.
"Oh, then how much will you pay?" Shen Yushu could not be bothered to talk to him anymore; it was not fun at all.
"Three million — that is the absolute limit of what we can bear!" Zhao Qibing held up three fingers. Naturally, he could not simply hand Wei Zhao that many advantages all at once. He had to stall for as much time as possible, waiting for Zhang Yuzhou to finish installing the time bomb.
