Chapter 293 Negotiating with Jiang Sheng
Being pointed at with a gun, Long Wei was shaking with fear, but Lu Yongqiang and Dadong looked calm. Lu Yongqiang even looked at Taizigang with a half-smile.
Seeing the half-smile on Lu Yongqiang's face, Taizigang seemed to be stimulated. A hint of madness flashed in his eyes, and he immediately prepared to open the safety of the pistol and shoot.
How could Lu Yongqiang give Taizigang the chance to open the safety? When he saw a flash of madness and brutality in Taizigang's eyes, Lu Yongqiang took action. He raised his hand and swung it, and a coin that he had been holding in his hand flew out and hit Taizigang's wrist like lightning.
The prince just let out a scream, and the gun in his hand fell on the table, with blood flowing from his wrist.
This incident happened too suddenly. When the prince screamed, the bodyguard behind Jiang Sheng immediately drew his gun, and Jiang Sheng also reached out to the table, ready to pick up the gun on the table.
But Dadong was faster than anyone else. When Taizigang's gun fell on the table, Dadong had already grabbed the gun on the table, opened the safety of the pistol, and then pointed the gun at Jiang Sheng.
Lu Yongqiang looked at Jiang Sheng calmly, then said in a cold voice: "Boss Jiang, I came to see you according to the rules of the underworld. I only brought Dadong with me, but you summoned hundreds of men. Even if you are ostentatious, I can ignore you.
But by pulling a gun on me, are you planning to fight me, Lu Yongqiang, to the death?"
As soon as Lu Yongqiang finished speaking, Xu Huayan said, "Brother Qiang, it's a misunderstanding! This is a misunderstanding! The child is ignorant and lost his sense of proportion and took out the gun.
Brother Qiang, we at Xinji have had good cooperation with you over the past six months. We shouldn't get into such a big fight over such a small matter. Calm down. If there's anything, we can discuss it slowly."
After speaking to calm Lu Yongqiang's anger, Xu Huayan immediately asked the bodyguards behind Jiang Sheng to put away their guns.
After the bodyguards put away their guns, Dadong took the muzzle of the gun, but he did not return the pistol. Instead, he kept holding it in his hand.
After the situation eased, Jiang Sheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief. After all, not everyone could remain calm when being pointed at by a gun.
Before becoming the leader of Xinji, Jiang Sheng was also a big name in the underworld. However, after being the leader for nearly twenty years, he no longer had much courage.
Jiang Sheng said, "Aqiang, negotiating is like buying something. You can bargain. If you're not satisfied with my terms, why don't you give me a response? You're not the type to leave immediately after a disagreement. You don't really mean to negotiate."
Lu Yongqiang pretended to be bewildered and said, "Is there any room for bargaining over this amount?
Brother Sheng, I am young and have no experience in negotiation. I thought that everyone could just state the conditions directly. If they can agree, we can talk about it. If they can't agree, then forget it. At worst, we can just use our fists to talk. If you want to call thousands of people to fight, then we can call people each. If you want to fight a life-and-death arena, then we will send people to fight in it.
In this world of martial arts, the biggest fist has the final say."
Jiang Sheng actually had the intention of giving in, but Lu Yongqiang was still sarcastically holding on to him, which made Jiang Sheng look a little unhappy.
At this time, Xu Huayan came out to ease the atmosphere and said, "Brother Qiang, we are all here to make money. Whether it's asking the brothers to start a fight or sending people to fight a life-or-death contest, it's all a waste of time and money. It's not worth it, it's too unprofitable. Let's discuss it calmly and come up with conditions that everyone is satisfied with."
Lu Yongqiang moved the chair under his buttocks back a little, then put his feet on the table, and said nonchalantly: "It doesn't matter if it's a waste of money and manpower. I've made some money over the years, and my family is quite well-off..."
Seeing Lu Yongqiang's persistence, Jiang Sheng was a little annoyed. Without waiting for Lu Yongqiang to finish his words, he shouted angrily, "Handsome Qiang, I know you have many experts under you, but I, Xinji, am not a pushover. Can you please speak properly? If you continue to be so sarcastic, then we won't talk anymore. Let's just have a fight to the death."
As soon as Jiang Sheng finished speaking, Xu Huayan immediately said, "Brother Sheng, Brother Qiang, it's not necessary. We really don't need to fight a life-and-death duel.
In this incident, Xiaogang was at fault first, but Mr. Long's men were too harsh, resulting in dozens of us being injured, and many are still in the hospital.
How about this, Mr. Long takes one million as medical expenses, sets up a few tables for the first round of wine, and we'll be done with this matter.
We will still be friends from now on, the business will continue, the money will continue to be made, and everyone will be happy."
After Xu Huayan finished speaking, Lu Yongqiang saw that Jiang Sheng did not object, so he took his feet off the table and said, "Old Xu, it takes you to be so sincere and sincere. If you had said earlier that you only need to pay 1.8 million and set up a few tables to apologize to Xinji, wouldn't we have agreed on this long ago? How could it have turned out like this and let my nephew hurt his hand again?"
As Lu Yongqiang was speaking, he turned to look at Jiang Sheng and said, "Brother Sheng, we can agree to the conditions that Lao Xu just mentioned. What about you? Do you agree?"
If you agree, I can write you a check right now."
As he spoke, Lu Yongqiang had already taken out his checkbook and a pen.
As Lu Yongqiang finished speaking, Jiang Sheng hadn't spoken yet. The prince just covered his injured wrist and opened his mouth to speak...
But before he could say anything, Jiang Sheng used his eyes to signal him to shut up, and then said, "Lao Xu, take Xiaogang out to treat his injuries first. I'll talk to Aqiang for a few more words."
As soon as Jiang Sheng finished speaking, Taizigang became unhappy and was about to lose his temper. Lao Xu immediately called a bodyguard, and then the two of them forcibly dragged Taizigang out of the room, covering his mouth while dragging him away.
After the prince was carried out, Jiang Sheng said, "Aqiang, we at Xinji don't care about the 1.8 million yuan medical expenses.
How about this, Aqiang, you can give me an extra 20 million worth of goods every month. We don't have to pay Mr. Long for the 1.8 million. We just need him to set up a few tables and make up for our Xinji's face."
After Jiang Sheng finished speaking, Lu Yongqiang pondered for a moment and said, "Brother Sheng, my winery is too small and the production is really limited. I really can't manage the extra 20 million in goods every month.
Of course, since Brother Sheng has offered to take care of my business, I can't help but give him face. I'm thinking of a way to give you an extra 5 million worth of goods every month. But since I'm giving you face, you have to give me some face too. Since the 1.8 million compensation has been waived, can we also let the first round of drinks go?"
Although Lu Yongqiang produces blended wine, it is based on real wine and uses chemicals to enhance the taste. It is not red wine blended entirely with chemicals. The output is limited and cannot be provided in unlimited quantities.
In order to expand production, Lu Yongqiang has been acting as a middleman, purchasing as much red wine as possible from other wineries and then processing it with chemicals.
Because the purchase volume is so large, it has attracted the attention of many local people. The profits are tempting. If he continues to expand production, Lu Yongqiang is afraid that it will be difficult to keep this business in the local area.
Therefore, Lu Yongqiang controlled the production to 200,000 bottles of red wine per year, and Lu Yongqiang controlled the ex-factory price to 3,000 yuan per bottle. The annual sales volume was 600 million yuan, and Lu Yongqiang's profit was about 200 million yuan.
After cooperating with Xinji, Lu Yongqiang provided Xinji with goods worth about 10 million every month, and the rest of the goods were all given to Felix, the foreigner.
The reason why Lu Yongqiang gave most of the goods to Felix, the foreigner, instead of Xinji, was because Felix, the foreigner, had a wide sales network and could sell the wine to many countries in Southeast Asia, while Xinji could only sell it locally in Hong Kong.
In addition, Lu Yongqiang sold the wine to Xinji at a price of about three thousand yuan. After Xinji received the wine, it would repackage it and then sell it at a price of six or seven thousand yuan.
Just from the goods provided by Lu Yongqiang, Xinji can earn 100 million to 200 million yuan every year. Everyone is in the Hong Kong city. If too many goods are given to Xinji and Xinji makes too much money, Lu Yongqiang will always feel that he is in a disadvantageous position.
After Lu Yongqiang met Felix, a foreigner, he found a new way to sell his wine. At that time, he even thought about breaking off cooperation with Xinji.
The reason why Lu Yongqiang didn't break up was that he felt there was no need to offend anyone.
Now Jiang Sheng is asking for an extra 30 million worth of goods every month. Not to mention that Lu Yongqiang doesn't have so much goods, even if he did, he wouldn't give it to Jiang Sheng.
The reason why Lu Yongqiang agreed to give Jiang Sheng an extra five million worth of goods was that he was plotting against Long Wei.
Since Lu Yongqiang is interested in developing in the entertainment industry, and Long Wei is an international superstar, Lu Yongqiang doesn't mind letting him owe him a big favor, which can also be regarded as paving the way for his development in the entertainment industry.
As Lu Yongqiang finished speaking, Jiang Sheng said, "Aqiang, we can let the first round of wine and compensation go, but five million worth of goods is too little, should we have at least ten million?"
Lu Yongqiang shook his head and said, "Brother Sheng, really not. My winery's output is too small. We can only produce this much wine every year. Being able to allocate an extra five million per month is already the limit.
If Brother Sheng doesn't want to, then forget it. I'll have Mr. Long compensate you two million. When the time comes for the first round of drinks, I'll personally toast you a few more glasses. That's enough to give you face, right? "
After hearing what Lu Yongqiang said, Jiang Sheng immediately said, "Okay! Okay! Okay! Five million is five million. Then starting from this month, Aqiang, you will give me an extra five million worth of goods."
An extra five million in goods every month is actually not a small amount. An extra five million every month means an extra sixty million a year. With this batch of wine, Xinji can earn at least forty to fifty million.
Although Longwei's compensation and the opening banquet did give Xinji face, could this little bit of face be worth tens of millions?
Lu Yongqiang hesitated for a moment and said, "OK! I'll ask Duxie to get the goods for you when I get back.
"Brother Sheng, we've reached an agreement now. There shouldn't be any further backlash from the young master, right? If it's the same as last time, it would be a slap in my face. I won't let it go so easily."
Jiang Sheng shook hands with Lu Yongqiang and said, "I'll have someone follow Xiaogang. If he dares to cause trouble for Mr. Long again, I won't have to do anything, Aqiang. I'll break his legs myself."
