Chapter 1209: Being Insulted
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
“Of course, I refused. The thing that Mr. Bobby didn’t dare to take, how am I capable of taking it?” Jeffers shook his head and said, “The most annoying thing is that this guy still wants to hide from me. It is obvious that he offended a big shot, and he even told me that he had a problem with cash flow! Isn’t this trying to kill me?!”
“You weren’t fooled, right!? We will not be fooled either!” Mike patted Jeffers’ shoulder.
“Yeah, thanks for reminding me yesterday. Otherwise, maybe today, I… ai , let’s not say it…” Jeffers sighed and spoke in fear.
“We are all friends. Why do you need to say thank you?” Mike waved his hand. “However, with your personal experience, we also gain some knowledge. Everyone should be careful. Li Zhichun may not have given up. He will still continue to sell us his mines!”
“Hey, now that we all know, who will take over his mines?” Everyone laughed.
After Li Zhichun scolded Jeffers, he was naturally unwilling, but there was no way. He did not understand how people lost interest in the mines that were initially very popular.
“Father, how was your talk with Jeffers?” Li Tianjia and Li Tianyu came in from the room next door and asked Li Zhichun.
“Damn, this guy actually refused me. He also said that he is not interested. Did he make a mistake!?” Li Zhichun said coldly, “All of them are like dumb*sses. I offer them with the original price, but they don’t even want it!”
“They don’t even want it?” Li Tianyu frowned. “No way? Why didn’t he want it?”
“Who knows? These people were as if they had eaten the wrong medicine. They don’t even want this good bargain!” Li Zhichun said indignantly.
“Father, I think it seems that the transfer price we offered is too low!” Li Tianyu interjected at this time. “We should raise the price and transfer it at a higher price!”
“Too low?” Li Zhichun was stunned. “It’s so cheap already; I’m selling it at the original price, but I can’t transfer it, let alone increase the price?”
“No, I think the problem is this price!” Li Tianyu shook his head and said, “It is because it is too low, so you can’t transfer the mine!”
“Why can’t we transfer? Can we transfer it if we offer a higher price?” Li Zhichun’s eyes widened; he apparently did not believe in Li Tianyu’s theory.
“Father, you are so smart. How can you not understand the truth?” Li Tianyu quickly explained in detail, “Think about it. We spent a lot of effort to bid for the management rights of these two mines. Now we’re transferring it at the original price. How can this not make people suspicious?”
” En ? You go on…” Li Zhichun nodded; he seemed to get some hints.
“Never mind the cost that we hired Li Lexin to fight for us. Even if it’s just the time we spent traveling back and forth, isn’t that enough?” Li Tianyu said, “Now when we transfer at the original price, what will people think? They will definitely think that we are either crazy or the two mines have problems! We can’t be crazy obviously, then there is only one other option; that is, there is a problem with the mines!”
“Yeah!” Li Zhichun slapped his head and suddenly realized. “I didn’t think of it before! It turned out to be like this. No wonder I thought Bobby’s and Jeffers’ gazes were a bit restless. It turned out that they were suspicious of me! I won’t sell it at the original price this time; I have to raise the price.”
“Yes, only if you raise the price, will the others think that we just want to earn the price difference, so we will only bid for these mines, then it is reasonable.” Li Tianyu nodded and said.
“Tianyu, you analyzed it well!” Li Zhichun suddenly became cheerful and refreshed, and he naturally did not hesitate to praise Li Tianyu.
Li Tianjia was a bit disdainful. He actually thought of the things that Li Tianyu said too. However, he didn’t think his father had not considered these things, but obviously, Li Zhichun was too involved in this matter, so he didn’t think of it.
After Li Zhichun came around to the idea, he was not so worried. After eating breakfast, he went to the guest house’s activity room on the first floor. Many investors would come here to play cards in their leisure time.
Li Zhichun entered the activity room, but he did not attract anyone’s attention. Everyone was playing with each other. Li Zhichun just casually looked for an empty place on a card game and sat down.
“Hey, man, what are you playing?” Li Zhichun looked at a black man closest to himself and asked.
“Black Jack!” When the black man saw Li Zhichun, his expression changed involuntarily. However, he still answered Li Zhichun’s question.
“What mine did you invest in this time?” Li Zhichun saw the black man talking to him, so he naturally chatted with him.
The black man naturally heard about Li Zhichun’s matter. After he got to know about Jeffers’ affair in the morning, he naturally wanted to stay away from Li Zhichun, but this guy just sat beside him, so the black man could only answer him casually. “I didn’t get any mines. My boxers are too trashy; I didn’t even win one match!”
After Li Zhichun listened to the words of the black man, his heart suddenly moved. He didn’t even get a mine. Isn’t he the target that I’m looking for? So Li Zhichun quickly talked with the black man, “That’s a pity!”
“Yeah.” As the black man finished speaking, he cursed, ” Oh hell, I took more cards!” Then, he folded the cards in his hand.
“In my hands, there are two mines. Are you interested?” Li Zhichun was about to sell the mines in his hands. “Actually, I am a middle businessman and a speculator. I have an iron mine and half a gold mine in my hands. Are you interested in it?”
“Speculator?” The black man repeated Li Zhichun’s words in monotone. It was difficult to understand the meaning of his tone.
“Yes, I’m a speculator!” said Li Zhichun. “You just need to give me some benefits, then I will transfer the mines to you. How about this? This business is worthwhile, right? At least, you won’t return empty-handed!”
“Return empty-handed? I am already returning empty-handed. I even booked the ticket for tomorrow.” The black man twitched his mouth.
“Yeah, now, you have such an opportunity. You met me due to destiny, me as the speculator!” Li Zhichun thought that the black man was tempted, so he put more effort into his sales pitch.
” Ha ha ha ha ha ha !” Suddenly, a loud voice interrupted the conversation between the two.
Li Zhichun frowned, Who is this without morality? Although this is a public occasion, he also has to consider his personal qualities, right?
“We are talking about business; can you lower your voice?!” Li Zhichun found the source of the laughter which was from a white man not far from them.
” Oh, oh! Ok , Mr. Speculator.” Mike showed a ridiculing expression. “I know you want to transfer the mines in your hands as soon as possible, because you have a cash flow problem, right!?”
“What cash flow problem?!” Li Zhichun glared at Mike; Li Zhichun was somewhat dissatisfied that Mike interrupted the conversation between himself and the black man.
“My business in Singapore is in financial straits, and I need funds, so I’m selling my mines at the original price. Oh, now you see that our black brother is easy to be bullied? You increased the price suddenly?” Mike mimicked Li Zhichun’s tone when he talked to Jeffers while pinching his nose.
“You!” Li Zhichun’s face suddenly turned red. He didn’t expect Jeffers to divulge their conversation. This made him very angry. How could this Jeffers do such a shameless thing?
“What me?” Mike was not afraid of Li Zhichun, especially since he knew from Bobby that a big shot wanted to teach Li Zhichun a lesson. Mike didn’t care more about him. So, he used all the cynicism he could. “Are you a fool, or are we fools? You offered each person a different price? Do you think it is fun to do this?”
Li Zhichun’s face was stunned by Mike for a while. He only snorted after a while. “Well, I admit it. I have a cash flow problem. I’m selling my mines at the original price. Do any of you want it?”
“I am not interested!” Mike threw up his hands, stood up, and walked directly to the door of the activity room.
“Sorry, I am not interested either.” The former black man also stood up. He didn’t want to meddle in this matter. Although he really wanted the mines in Li Zhichun’s hands, he also understood that after buying it, he couldn’t even stay here, so it was better not to buy it.
“Hey, man, I can make it cheaper. How about it?” Li Zhichun shouted.
“I really have no interest!” The black man shook his head and left without looking back.
“Let’s go. There’s nothing interesting here…” The other people in the activity room also stood up and walked to the door. Finally, only Li Zhichun was left, sitting next to the table in the activity room.
Li Zhichun didn’t understand why all the people acted as if they had discussed it before. They were not interested in the mines in his hands! Li Zhichun was really dumbfounded this time!
He originally thought that he didn’t have to worry about selling if he had the items. The current situation was that he was selling at the original price and even a lower price, but no one wanted it! What happened to these people…
It doesn’t make sense. Such a cheap bargain and they don’t want it? Is it because someone is not letting them buy it?
Thinking of this, suddenly a chill came over Li Zhichun’s body! Don’t let them buy… yes, it must be like this! There must be a behind-the-scenes person behind this!
And this behind-the-scenes person, can it be Yang Ming? As he thought of it, Li Zhichun’s body couldn’t help but start to tremble! Is the revenge of Yang Ming already started?
Yang Ming didn’t let him transfer the mines in his hands to other people. Of course, Li Zhichun didn’t think that Yang Ming didn’t let him transfer them because he wanted Li Zhichun to continue operating the mines.
