Two realms! I have a Soul Refining Banner

Chapter 20 A Murderous Intent Arises! Who's Causing Trouble?

"Let me emphasize again, these are materials from the Baltic region, sourced through legitimate channels, and absolutely not smuggled materials!"

Chen Jie's tone was calm, yet carried an undeniable firmness.

It seems that

It is highly likely that cooperation with Olena Jewelry Store will not be possible.

Despite my repeated emphasis on the compliance of the material's procedures, the other party kept insisting on focusing on the place of origin.

The only explanation is that they want to take the opportunity to lower the price.

Zhao Wentao, the "smiling tiger," sensed the tense atmosphere and immediately tried to smooth things over with a forced laugh and a broad smile:

"Don't get me wrong! Haha—we mean no harm, we're just curious about where the material came from."

He changed the subject, fixing his gaze on Chen Jie, and tentatively asked:

"If I'm not mistaken, you should have other materials on hand, right?"

In his view, if a new mine is discovered, the output will certainly be high.

Judging from the quality of these high-end items in Chen Jie's possession, it's impossible that there's only about one kilogram of amber; there must be many more raw amber stones behind them.

The surrounding managers and appraisers nodded in agreement upon hearing Zhao Wentao's words, their eyes filled with anticipation.

Seeing that Chen Jie remained silent, Zhao Wentao continued:

"By the way, boss, what's your surname?"

"To be honest, although your batch of materials has some internal cracks and minor flaws, our Ouliana brand is indeed out of stock recently."

"We'll buy your shipment if the price is right. Give us your quote!"

finished,

He turned to the people around him and whispered a few words, exchanging their opinions.

Everyone knew that this batch of materials was top-grade water purification material.

It has a high transparency of sky blue, and the inside contains insects and coral. It is large and in perfect condition.

From any perspective, it is a rare find.

If you buy it and process it meticulously, you're sure to make a fortune.

Upon hearing this, Chen Jie revealed a meaningful smile.

He had two transactions with Huayun International and was already very familiar with the market price of raw amber.

Even at the lowest market price, this batch of samples is worth 2.5 million.

But the other party immediately said that the material had cracks and flaws, clearly trying to maliciously lower the price.

But business is business!

Bargaining is commonplace, so Chen Jie didn't take it to heart.

He said with a smile:

"Your Oulina Jewelry Store is so large and has a good reputation in the industry. Just give me a fair price. If it's suitable, I'll sell it to you."

His goal was never to sell these samples.

Instead, they wanted to use these samples to test what price Olena could offer.

If the other party offers more than two million, it is considered fair.

He could list the other party as one of his amber rough stone dealers.

If the offer is less than two million, then there is no need to continue negotiating.

Click!

Zhao Wentao picked up a pack of cigarettes from the coffee table in the living room, casually took one out, lit it, took a deep drag, and slowly exhaled the smoke from his mouth.

have to say,

This is extremely impolite behavior and shows a great disrespect to the customer.

Who would light up a cigarette and start smoking in the reception room without asking the client's opinion?

"I'll give you 100,000 yuan for this batch of goods! How about it?"

Zhao Wentao exhaled a smoke ring and said casually, "Based on the current market, even though your shipment is being used for entrepot trade, it's only worth about this much at most!"

Chen Jie almost burst out laughing after hearing this, his tone full of sarcasm:

"One hundred thousand!? Mr. Zhao, are you kidding me?"

Zhao Wentao, however, continued smoking, speaking slowly and deliberately:

"Young man, do you think I, Zhao Wentao, haven't seen through my years of experience in the amber industry?"

"Do you really think you're the only smart one and everyone else is a fool?"

"If you really had an amber mine, you would probably have opened a processing plant in Songgang long ago, instead of coming here to sell your products."

"Besides, if you had any reliable sales channels, they wouldn't be coming to you."

"If it were just a single piece of raw amber, I might assume it was from your personal collection. But to produce so many, all of them high-quality pieces, clearly indicates that this batch of goods is of dubious origin!"

He chuckled dismissively, his tone flippant:

"Stolen, huh? Haha—but it doesn't matter, I won't ask where the goods came from. As long as the goods are good, I'll pay you."

"One hundred thousand yuan is already a very fair price."

Chen Jie couldn't help but laugh. He shook his head, his tone icy:

"Yes! You're absolutely right, 100,000 yuan is such a fair price!"

There are thirteen pieces of top-quality amber rough worth two and a half million.

The other party only offered 100,000 yuan!

This is what you call fairness?

this moment,

Chen Jie completely lost interest in continuing the conversation.

He bent down, preparing to put the amber stone away.

The other party has no sincerity in cooperating at all. Continuing to talk will only waste time and yield no results.

"If you're not satisfied with the price, you can add a little more, how about it? 150,000, that's the most I can offer!"

When Zhao Wentao saw that Chen Jie was about to take away the raw stone, he quickly called out, his tone filled with urgency.

Chen Jie remained silent and continued to pack the amber stones into his backpack one by one.

"You, Olena, have absolutely no sincerity in cooperating. We have nothing to discuss. Goodbye!"

After saying that, Chen Jie picked up his backpack, turned around, and walked towards the entrance of the reception room.

Zhao Wentao never expected Chen Jie to be so decisive, leaving without a word.

The smile on his face vanished instantly, his expression turned cold, a stark contrast to his previous beaming demeanor.

"Wait! Did I say you could leave?"

He shouted sharply, his tone laced with malice, "Our company warehouse just happened to lose a batch of goods, exactly thirteen pieces of amber rough!"

"You think you can just swagger away from Olena with only a backpack?"

"Think about it carefully. If we call the police, do you think they'll believe you or us?"

"Young man, if you don't want to go inside and operate the sewing machine, leave your backpack behind!"

finished,

He instructed a young man beside him, "Xiao Wang, go to the finance department and get him 100,000 yuan!"

Chen Jie paused, slowly turned around, his face expressionless, and calmly asked:

"You mean you want to steal my entire shipment?"

Before he came, he had envisioned many possible outcomes for the collaboration.

But I never expected that such a thing would happen in a country that values ​​the rule of law.

The other party clearly wanted to forcibly take my amber rough.

Fortunately, I didn't take out 20 kilograms of goods at once.

otherwise,

The other party might go completely insane and do something even more outrageous.

Chen Jie gently shook his head, walked up to Zhao Wentao, leaned slightly closer to his ear, and whispered:

"General Manager Zhao, I advise you to be more discerning and not bring disaster upon yourself!"

this moment,

A murderous intent had already risen in Chen Jie's heart!

However, Zhao Wentao's next words forced Chen Jie to temporarily suppress his murderous intent and abandon the idea of ​​taking action.

Zhao Wentao sneered, his tone full of smugness and threat:

"You know there are surveillance cameras everywhere around Olena?"

"If I told you that the surveillance footage of you entering was 'accidentally' damaged, and only the footage of you leaving with your bag was preserved, could you explain that to the police?"

"Even if the street surveillance cameras can capture you carrying a backpack, who can prove that it contains these thirteen pieces of rough amber?"

"If you don't want trouble, leave your things here and get out!"

monitor!?

Chen Jie took a deep breath, slowly loosened his clenched hands, and forced himself to calm down.

He knew that on Earth, surveillance was the most direct evidence.

If what Zhao Wentao said is true, once he takes action, he will get into a lot of trouble and delay his important business.

He took the amber rough stones out of his backpack again and placed them one by one in front of Zhao Wentao, saying in a calm tone:

"No need for money. I'll keep all these amber stones as a gift for you."

"Now, may I leave?"

Just then, Xiao Wang, who had been instructed by Zhao Wentao to go to the finance department to get money, hurriedly returned to the reception room with a black plastic bag in his hand.

Zhao Wentao took the plastic bag and shoved it in front of Chen Jie, his tone carrying a hint of condescension:

"Kid, don't say I'm bullying you, here's 100,000 yuan!"

"Remember to be more careful next time. Don't sell stolen goods outside carelessly; you'll easily get ripped off!"

Chen Jie didn't take the bag of money; he just gave Zhao Wentao a cold look and then turned and walked away without a word.

Don't want to cause trouble?

hehe--!

Who exactly is causing trouble?

this moment,

Chen Jie's gaze was terrifyingly sinister, and the murderous intent suppressed in his heart was almost bursting out of his chest!

Zhao Wentao, if you can see the sun rise tomorrow, it's a blessing from your ancestors!
