Chapter 473: Chapter 473 Arrogance and Humility
Leiden’s face showed an instant of discomfort, but he quickly composed himself and continued to act superior. "Chairman Yang, are you sure you don’t want to look at the contract?"
"No need to look," Yang Yu said. "In business, as long as I’m not losing money, earning more or less doesn’t matter to me, but I must be in a good mood. If I’m happy, I don’t mind letting my partners earn more."
"But teaming up with a partner who looks down on me, nobody feels good about that, so why bother? Isn’t the point of making money to be happy? If even making money isn’t enjoyable, then what’s the point of making it?"
Leiden was silent for a long while before finally speaking. "Chairman Yang, I’ll give you one last chance. If you don’t agree, I will go to Yanjing and seek cooperation with the major families there. Although Yanjing’s geographical location is not as convenient as Tianhai, at least Yanjing is still the Capital City of your Xia Country, which could be more beneficial for our family’s business."
"I know why your family is approaching me at this time," Yang Yu said. "Those big families in Yanjing are very strong; you couldn’t possibly cooperate with just one of them. Cooperating with so many would dilute the profits too much, leaving the Klopus Family with very little."
"My situation is different. You might think that since my Business Alliance has just been established and urgently needs various orders, it would be easy to manipulate, giving you an unbeatable advantage in negotiations."
"That’s the reason for your arrogance, isn’t it? Because you feel that doing business with our alliance is like throwing us a bone to chew on, right?"
"Perhaps the Xia Country people you met in Britain made you think that the backbone of us Xia Country people is fake. Then let me tell you today, there is an old saying in Xia Country, ’The poor do not partake of alms.’
"Not to mention that I’m not short of business from your family; even if I were, I would not deal with a family that looks down on Xia Country people."
"If you’re willing to stay, I’ll treat you to a meal as a friend. But as for business, let’s forget about it."
Yang Yu’s words were measured and steadfast, leaving Leiden completely stunned on the spot.
After a long while, Leiden stood up and bowed deeply to Yang Yu. "Chairman Yang, I sincerely apologize to you; I was wrong. So, could you please take a look at the cooperation proposal I’ve brought, then decide whether to do business with us or not?"
Shen Silin and Ning Zhixin were taken aback, especially Zhixin, who had never seen Leiden so submissive, and it gave her a severe shock.
To Yang Yu, none of this was surprising; the world had always been this way.
If you show weakness, the other party will climb up on your head and defecate.
If you’re strong, they will inevitably be deferential, even willing to prostrate themselves on the ground for you to sit on.
No need to say, this cooperation must also be of great significance to the Klopus Family; otherwise, Leiden wouldn’t have admitted his mistake so quickly.
Now that Leiden had apologized, if Yang Yu didn’t forgive him, it would be somewhat petty. "Alright, bring me the materials your family has prepared and let me have a look. If it’s appropriate, we can sign the contract tomorrow."
"What? So soon?" Leiden was shocked by Yang Yu’s efficiency. "You don’t need to study it further?"
Yang Yu said, "I already said, if it’s suitable we can sign. If it’s not, we’ll certainly need to negotiate properly."
Leiden clearly understood what Yang Yu meant by "suitable," but the family’s previous business partners were not as straightforward as Yang Yu.
Even if they were interested in cooperation, these partners were reluctant to commit too quickly, fearing that doing so would put them at a disadvantage in negotiations.
Leiden had never seen anyone like Yang Yu who was willing to sign on the spot if things were suitable.
Leiden inhaled deeply, then spoke. "Chairman Yang, give me your email, and I will send the project proposal to your inbox."
"Fine," Yang Yu provided his email, and Leiden immediately sent the documents to him.
Yang Yu flashed a slight smile. "Let’s go eat. By the time we finish the meal, we should have a preliminary result."
Once again, Leiden was astounded. "Mr. Yang, won’t you have to look at it yourself?"
"No need," Yang Yu spread his hands, "I don’t really understand business matters, it’s better to leave it to professionals. I’ll just go have dinner."
Leiden: "..."
Yang Yu wasn’t deceiving Leiden; it was Xia Yu and Shen Silin who were more professional in business matters.
Shen Silin was skilled in strategizing people and connections, while Xia Yu was the true business prodigy.
With Xia Yu involved, Yang Yu didn’t need to worry.
After being dealt with by Yang Yu, all of Leiden’s arrogance had vanished, and a kind smile appeared on his face.
Shen Silin couldn’t help but chuckle to herself; these foreigners needed a good handling!
Yang Yu brought them to Jinmao Hotel for a meal, talking while eating.
Ning Zhixin casually asked, "Selin, when are you getting married?"
Shen Silin smiled and said, "I’ll wait until Yang Yu has settled those big families in Yanjing, then we’ll get married."
If Shen Silin had said this before, Leiden and Ning Zhixin would have thought she was boasting.
But after witnessing Yang Yu’s commanding presence, they no longer felt the same way.
He is a very special man; whatever he wants to do, he will undoubtedly achieve it.
"What about you?" Shen Silin asked in return. "When are you getting married? I need to plan my schedule in advance, as going abroad isn’t so convenient."
"After Leiden officially becomes the heir to their family," Zhixin said. "I won’t hide it; there are three brothers competing to become the family heir. Whoever brings back the most benefits from business talks will become the heir."
"I see," Shen Silin sighed, "But what if, I’m just saying, what if Leiden doesn’t become the heir, then what about you..."
"We’ll still get married," Zhixin smiled. "But I’ll make him come back to Xia Country with me, to avoid the boredom of staying in the family."
"That’s good," Yang Yu smiled knowingly. Just then, Xia Yu’s call came in. "Yang Yu, this cooperation proposal is fine; the problem lies with the Klopus Family."
"How so?" Yang Yu did not avoid Leiden, turning on the speakerphone so Leiden could also hear what Xia Yu had to say.
"Klopus is indeed a great family in Britain, but compared to their glory a few hundred years ago, they are now on the decline," Xia Yu explained. "The family still has some substance, but there’s intense internal strife."
"Simply put, even if we sign this contract, it may not lead to a smooth cooperation."
