BXBX NOVEL Chapter 263 - Bargaining
Chapter 263: Bargaining
Jiang Xingchen didn’t say a word, nor did he turn around. He put on his clothes and walked out of the private room. The meal was suffocating, and the negotiation made him even angrier. He didn’t want to say another word.
Secretary Liu first smiled apologetically at Su Yan, then quickly ran to Jiang Xingchen’s side and advised with a sincere tone, “President Jiang, now isn’t the time to be angry. Actually, you should calm down and analyze it. Miss Su was right. Our company is currently in debt of 500 million. If we delay for another ten days or half a month, 500 million might turn into 700 million or 800 million. The more debt we have, the fewer people will be willing to take over our company. In the end, the debt will crush us completely. Not only will we not be able to get 1.2 billion, but your brother will also know about this. What do you think will happen then?”
Jiang Xingchen said with a dark expression, “Is it because I don’t want to sell it? It’s because they are showing no sincerity. You heard it just now. They want to buy Maoyuan for 1.2 billion. They are going too far!”
Secretary Liu nodded. 1.2 billion was indeed a low price, but with the company’s current situation, they would lose a lot of money every day they waste. If they continued to persist like this, they wouldn’t be able to afford it anymore.
In fact, Jiang Xingchen and Jiang Ming both had money. If each of them took out 1 billion to invest in Maoyuan, they could still bring Maoyuan back to life, but it was hard to say how long they could last. The brothers obviously didn’t want to spend money on Maoyuan, or else they wouldn’t have come to negotiate.
Thinking of this, Secretary Liu asked, “President Jiang, are you and vice President Jiang going to take care of the 500 million debt together?”
Hearing this, Jiang Xingchen stopped in his tracks. This sentence was like a steel needle that pierced directly into his heart and stabbed him painfully.
Maoyuan’s current situation was like a burning money hole. No matter how much money was poured in, it wasn’t enough. 500 million was nothing to him and Jiang Ming, but after 500 million, there might be another one billion, three billion, five billion to spend. This wasn’t something they could afford.
When he thought of money, Jiang Xingchen finally calmed down. The anger in his heart was also suppressed. No one would go against money. What he needed to do now wasn’t to be angry with Su Yan, but to sell Maoyuan in time to stop the loss.
Seeing that his mood was better, Secretary Liu continued, “President Jiang, in my opinion, the price can still be negotiated. Bargaining is important. Before Miss Su leaves, why don’t we go back and talk about it?”
Jiang Xingchen nodded slowly. He felt that Secretary Liu’s words were very reasonable. Although he was in a hurry to sell Maoyuan, he still had to negotiate the price. It seemed that he was so enraged by Su Yan that he lost his rationality and left without even negotiating the price.
After thinking it through, he turned around and walked back, but he stopped after only two steps. He was so impulsive when he left just now. If he went back now, where would his dignity be?
Secretary Liu smiled. “President Jiang, now isn’t the time to care about dignity. You have to make a choice between money and dignity. I personally feel that in front of money, dignity is worthless. What do you think?”
Hearing this, Jiang Xingchen took a deep breath and looked at Secretary Liu with a hint of appreciation. He felt it was good to have such a capable assistant by his side.

Jiang Xingchen sighed and said, “You’re right. In front of money, dignity is worthless. After all, it’s more than a billion. It doesn’t matter if I lose dignity once.”
In less than thirty seconds, the two of them returned to the private room. They didn’t go far, so they came back quickly. Jiang Xingchen looked at Su Yan with a dark expression. “Assistant Su Gao, I discussed with Secretary Liu. 1.2 billion is really too little. We came with sincerity. The two contracts are ready. Why don’t you give us a new price?”
Seeing that he was back, Su Yan wasn’t surprised at all. She served herself another cup of tea and said, “President Jiang, we also came with Miss Summer’s sincerity, but we can’t only be sincere when discussing business. We must also pay attention to the actual situation. You know your company’s situation better than anyone. After paying 1.2 billion to buy Maoyuan, we have to first pay off all of the debts, then stop production and reorganize, cut staff, hire workers, upgrade the product technology, add new projects, and realize transformation. The cost is an astronomical figure, but 1.2 billion for you and vice President Jiang is a sure win.”
