Heart of Empire Chapter 66: Negotiation


"I don't agree! Dane! You vampire! You bastard! You shameless! You're going to take 90% of the profits if you talk? You're kidding me!"

Dane sat comfortably on the reclining chair, holding a glass of wine in his hand, and the light smile on his face did not change at all because of the furious look of the halfling with a pair of eight beards in front of him. .

This halfling is naturally Goodell.

Earlier, he saw Dane among the crowd surrounding his store, and he welcomed the God of Wealth very enthusiastically, and personally took him to the living room on the second floor of the store, and took out the He entertained Dane with the fine wine from Shire that he had treasured for a long time. There is of course a reason for being so attentive.

Two weeks ago, when he saw the two boxes of black crystals sent by his compatriot, Captain Hull of the Long Sail following Daingan, he realized the huge profits that these things could bring . When Hull proposed the sky-high price of one thousand gold coins for a box of black crystals, he agreed without even frowning. As an excellent businessman, Goodell knew that the black crystal bought with 2,000 gold coins would at least double the profit he would be able to bring him in the future if he handled it well!

Sure enough, his 'stock' store, after starting to sell black crystals publicly, quickly became crowded with people. The hunger marketing strategy was used just right, bringing his store a two-week period of popularity , the daily turnover is at least several times higher than usual.

He knew that the black crystal flowed from Dane's hand, and he also learned from Hull that Dane still had a lot of black crystals in his hand.

This is the God of Wealth! Seeing that the God of Wealth is coming, how can we not entertain him? He also hoped that he could get more black crystals from Dane.

After seeing the huge profits that magic minerals brought to the shop, Goodell was even ready for Dane to speak loudly. What he thought was that even if Dane raised the price by 50%, and sold a box of black crystals to 1,500 gold coins, he would still be able to accept it with gritted teeth. But unexpectedly, Dane was far more greedy than he imagined!

Because Dane doesn't plan to sell him the goods directly, but plans to take the model of cooperative sales, but the profit sharing ratio...

"Hey, Goodell, my old friend, how can you be so rude? Let's make money together... You see, I don't want a penny of your payment, and I promise to provide you with plenty of money. For the source of goods, you just need to sell them. You can directly get 10% of the final profit, which is quite a reasonable figure.”

"Get out!" Gudel said, blowing his beard, "I would rather you ask for more price! Only give me 10% of the profit, why don't you die? Then I will become a white man for you!" Are you working part-time? You are trying to kill me, you!"

"Come on, you." Dane sat up straight and said, "Don't be cheap and act like a good boy! 10% of the profit is not low, and I will deliver all the goods, so you don't have to worry about it. The delivery is also mine. You don’t have to worry about finding a way to get a ship to bring it to you. All you have to do is sell it as an agent. Don’t think I don’t know how popular magic minerals are in the market! If you leave me, where will you find it?"

The halfling stared at Dane, and said: "Then this ratio is too low! If the profit of a box of black crystals is calculated at the cost of one thousand gold coins, I can only earn seven or eight hundred at most. You took so much money out of thin air, and I only have a profit of a little over a hundred after selling a box, which is really a loss!"

Dane curled his lips and said, "Well, because we are old friends, I only present this opportunity to make a fortune to you. Since you are so greedy, then I have no choice but to go Find someone else..."

After all, Dane put on an appearance that he was about to leave, as if he really didn't intend to continue the conversation.

Looking at this posture, how can Goodell let Dane really leave like this? He quickly stopped in front of Dane, his short body was not even higher than Dane's thigh, he could only hug Dane's leg, and said repeatedly: "Don't, don't, don't... There is something to discuss, let's do it For business, don't disagree like this, just leave!"

Dane lowered his head, looked down at the halfling man hugging his thigh, and said, "Then do you agree or disagree?"

Goodell's face has turned a bitter melon color, and he is really a little tangled in his heart. A 10% profit is really too little. Magic minerals itself is a hugely profitable industry, but after 90% of the profits are taken away for nothing, the remaining money is about the same as doing ordinary business.

But after all, it is a profitable business, and Goodell doesn't want to just let the opportunity go. So, he could only say: "Boss Dane, let me tell you the truth, the 10% profit is really too little, it's not just me, you can go to various chambers of commerce and shops in Shawan Harbor and ask, don't worry about it." No matter how good things are, no businessman is willing to accept such conditions."

Frowning, Dane drank the red wine in his hand and said, "Does that mean there is nothing to talk about?"

"No, no, listen to me first!" Goodell let go of Dane's thigh, ran to the side, and snatched the red wine bottle that the maid was holding in his arms. Flatteringly poured it for Dane himself, comforted Dane and sat back on his seat, and then said: "10% is really too low, at least I want 20% of the profit. However, I can do one thing, that is, in the future There is no need for you, Boss Dane, to work **** transportation. I organize the ships myself and transport the goods to Comilla Island. All the expenses are mine, and any problems at sea are also mine. Do you think about it? ?”

Looking at the dwarf, Dane thought about it, and felt that this should be the lowest line that Goodell could accept. In fact, this price is basically at Dane's psychological price~IndoMTL.com~even higher. Selling is not an easy thing to do. How to maximize the value of a product, Dane is far less clear than Goodell. After all, he is a professional and has worked hard in the business world for so many years. In fact, not to mention 20% profit, Dane can accept 30% profit.

However, doing business is all about asking for a lot of money and bargaining on the ground. If you can get more profits, why not do it?

"Well, since you've already talked about this, I'll accept it reluctantly. You have to remember, it's because of the friendship between the two of us back then that I agreed to you. Otherwise, hum..."

"I know, I know..." Goodell smiled obsequiously, but his heart was already suffering. If he had known that the black crystals could be produced on Comilla Island, he wouldn't have been able to sell such an island for a few hundred gold coins even if he was killed. The selling price of an island is only the cost of a box of black crystals, the difference is really too big!

I was slapped in the face decisively...Let me think about the hero system slowly. It can be done if it is done, which is equivalent to upgrading the existing talent system to a higher level. Talents are specific affairs officers, and it is very reliable to manage production development and be an excellent military officer. As for heroes, they can lead the army alone in the future and serve as governors sent abroad after the territory grows, which is definitely necessary. As for what to do, we will wait and see.

For the next plot, there is no chance for the hero to appear. I still have some time to design slowly~IndoMTL.com~ Read on ~IndoMTL.com~ for mobile users.
