Chapter 552: A Rascal in Negotiations
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Mr. Jiang, let’s look at the price…” Celine Trish still wanted to try negotiating.
However, Jiang Fei was sitting on the sofa with his eyes closed. It seemed as if he had fallen asleep. He did not open his mouth at all. Meanwhile, Han Tianyu shrugged his shoulders and showed a pitiful expression.
“Haih! I have never met anyone who negotiated like this!” The European beauty finally could not stand it anymore. She looked very annoyed and unsettled.
“Miss Celine Trish, there is nothing to discuss on the price anymore. If you are still interested in this deal, then we can talk about the volume of trade. If you are not, we will reach out to the Mutants Brotherhood.” Han Tianyu smiled as he said exactly where her thoughts had gone.
“You guys… Haih! Let me make a call for some guidance!” Celine Trish felt helpless. She would have to contact her superior to get their opinion. After all, the price quoted by Jiang Fei was far higher than the price that they had agreed on in the beginning.
After approximately five minutes, Celine Trish walked out from the meeting room next door. It seemed she had concluded the communication with her superiors.
“You guys have won. The world is on the brink of destruction. Our Vatican needs to grow in strength quickly. Therefore, we would like to make the trade,” Celine Trish said helplessly.
Originally, Celine Trish intended to stall on Jiang Fei’s offer to teach him the lesson that he could not oppress others with such an unreasonable price. However, the Pope insisted on acquiring the pills immediately at whatever cost.
The Pope agreed to Jiang Fei’s unreasonable offer mainly because the Mutants Brotherhood had just reported to him about the j.a.panese’s plot. A Bio-Army of hundreds of thousands and even millions of troops was not something any Metahuman organization could stand against. Therefore, the European Vatican must take action to strengthen their forces. Otherwise, they might be affected even if they were far away from Tokyo.
“What do you think about the quant.i.ty?” Han Tianyu smiled as he said.
“The maximum amount. 200 pills for 2,000 tonnes of raw uranium,” Celine Trish said with gritted teeth. This was the worst deal she had negotiated in her entire life. It was an absolute rip-off to her.
“Deal!” Jiang Fei jumped off the sofa. He had not been sleeping at all. He was merely pretending to be asleep.
“How shall we proceed with the deal?” Celine Trish asked.
“Once you have prepared the uranium, my master will collect it on my behalf. He will then hand the pills over to you!” Jiang Fei said.
“Oh? Zhuge Shanzhen will personally collect it?” Celine Trish asked in surprise.
“Of course. How else would I be able to collect that much of uranium?” Jiang Fei laughed.
“Alright. I will contact you once we have prepared the materials,” Celine Trish said and proceeded to leave Han Tianyu’s office.
Celine Trish had left in a hurry primarily because she needed to prepare the uranium materials that Jiang Fei wanted. Secondly, she was not willing to look at Jiang Fei any longer. In the eyes of the European beauty, Jiang Fei was an absolute rascal in negotiations who refused to bargain at all.
“Brother Yu, thank you so much!” Jiang Fei said to Han Tianyu after Celine Trish had left.
“I merely contacted them. That’s all I did…” Han Tianyu laughed as he shook his head.
“Hehe, if not for your great idea, I would have been bullied by these tricky b*stards.” Jiang Fei thanked Han Tianyu for coming up with the idea of stating the unreasonable trade terms.
“Hehe, the goods were necessities. Moreover, you are the only one who has them. Under such circ.u.mstances, they would have to agree with the unreasonable terms no matter what.” Han Tianyu laughed.
“Alright, let me know once you receive the news. I am going home!” Jiang Fei excused himself after seeing that the sky had turned dark. After all, his mother was still waiting for him to go home for dinner.
“Alright. Once the Vatican has prepared the uranium materials, I will contact you.” Han Tianyu nodded.
Jiang Fei left Han Tianyu’s office and went back to his house. As it was located in the same building, Jiang Fei only had to take the lift to get home. As such, he arrived at home very quickly.
“Eh? You’re here!” When Jiang Fei opened the door, he saw Si Tuying chatting with his mother in the living room.
“Yeah! Little Ying came in the afternoon to look for you, but you had already gone out.” Jiang Fei’s mother laughed as she said.
“Ah…” When Si Tuying noticed that Jiang Fei had returned, she suddenly became much more demure. The young lady had built up the courage to come look for Jiang Fei. However, as it turned out, he had not been home. However, Jiang Fei’s mother was very welcoming and the two got along pretty well.
“Little Fei, you can continue chatting with her. I am going to prepare food. Little Ying, don’t rush off. Stay here for dinner tonight.” Jiang Fei’s mother laughed and walked to the kitchen.
“Hehe, have you started missing me already?” Jiang Fei sat down next to Si Tuying and smiled at her.
For some unknown reason, Jiang Fei always felt nervous around other girls. However, in front of Si Tuying, he did not feel that way. When he was with her, Jiang Fei felt like he could be himself.
“Hmph! Who would miss you?” Si Tuying exclaimed. Her face turned red as Jiang Fei had guessed her thoughts correctly, which made her seem even more adorable.
“Little Fei, come over here. Help me with opening this can!” Jiang Fei’s mother called out.
“I’m coming!” Jiang Fei asked Si Tuying to entertain herself by watching the television while he went to help his mother in the kitchen.
“Is this Little Ying one of your kind?” Jiang Fei’s mother asked curiously after he walked into the kitchen.
“No. Although she is skilled, she is only a normal human being.” Jiang Fei shook his head.
“En! A normal girl is still better!” Jiang Fei’s mother nodded approvingly. Although Jiang Fei’s parents had never mentioned anything, they felt guarded against Metahumans ever since the time they were kidnapped.
“Hehe.” Jiang Fei laughed as he turned around to look at Si Tuying who sat in front of the television in the living room.
“Well done, young man. I never noticed how good you were with girls!” Jiang Fei’s mother teased Jiang Fei every time she handed him a can of food.
“Hehe…” Jiang Fei laughed along as he opened the cans. If it had been the Yang sisters or Sun Mengmeng, Jiang Fei would have strongly denied it. However, for some unknown reason, Jiang Fei did not deny what his mother said about Si Tuying.
“It’s alright. I am not old-fas.h.i.+oned like your father. It’s fine. I am proud of you for finding a girl who likes you! Go on, spend time with her!” Jiang Fei’s mother collected the opened cans and pushed Jiang Fei out of the kitchen.
Ba-dump… Right then, the sound of a door closing could be heard. Jiang Fei’s father had returned home.
As Han Tianyu had found a leisurely yet well-paying job for Jiang Fei’s father, he was able to leave work punctually to spend more time with his family.
“Hi, uncle!” Although Si Tuying was a very naughty girl outside, she appeared extremely obedient in front of Jiang Fei’s parents.
“Hehe, we have a guest!” Ever since Jiang Fei’s father found out about his son’s unusual pathway, he had become much more relaxed with Jiang Fei’s behavior.
“Dad, this is Si Tuying. She’s my friend…” Jiang Fei explained to his father that Si Tuying was a normal human being while he helped to hang his father’s coat.
