After he hung the phone, Hans gave Li Du a bizarre look.

”What’s up?” Li Du asked.

”We’re not going back yet. Someone is coming to us regarding a deal. Topic of interest is this.” He pointed to the case that Godzilla was holding. In it were the bottles of rose oil.

Li Du soon understood. He said with a smile, ”Business has come knocking at our door?”

Hans nodded. ”Correct. For once, it has come knocking on our door. It’s a blessing from God for us to make more money.”

The other party seemed to view this as an important deal. Soon, an S-class Mercedes-Benz arrived. A pair of middle-aged people, a man and a woman, alighted and walked over to them.

After they met, they introduced themselves.

The two belonged to a fragrance company called ”Siguaraya.” The man was Hill Crestet, the senior purchasing manager. The woman was Alice Humphrey, an aromatherapist.

Hill seemed to be in charge of the situation. He shook hands with Hans and Li Du and went straight to the point. ”I’ve heard that you guys have found some rose oil, so I had come to see if we could possibly make a deal.”

Hans exaggeratingly stretched out his arms and said, ”Sure, of course. We’re planning to return to Flagstaff. If we were to return with Franklins instead of some small bottles, that would be best.”

They had just checked out of their rooms, so they went to a nearby coffee shop. They asked for a private room of their own. They then brought the suitcase in to discuss the deal, and to validate the quality of the rose oil.

The room was not big enough, so Li Du told Big Quinn and Godzilla to head off for a break. The two thought for a moment, and went to stand at the entrance. Their arms were crossed, taking the role of bouncers.

Li Du noticed the two of them when he left the room to go order some coffee. He laughed, ”There’s no need for this, just go take a break.”

Big Quinn said, ”Boss, we need to stand here so that you guys seem more imposing when securing the deal.”

Li Du patted his shoulder and said, ”I’ll give you a bonus when we get back. One for each of you.”

Big Quinn seemed more enthusiastic. When the owner of the restaurant saw him, Big Quinn met his stare with a smile. The owner hastily turned away.

Twenty-four bottles of rose oil were placed on the table. Besides the one that had been opened by Hans, the others were sealed with wax.

Alice opened the unsealed rose oil and inhaled deeply. She then nodded and said, ”Yes, it’s rose essential oil. More precisely, rose otto.”

”Alright, gentlemen,” Hill said, ”we need to perform some preliminary tests for the rose otto. If we don’t we can’t give a price.”

”We’ll need to unseal the bottles for the tests, right?” Hans asked.

If it were necessary, then they had to carefully consider this.

The two had introduced themselves, and no one else was available to verify their identities. It was unclear if they were who they said they were. If the bottles were opened, and they decided not to buy them, then it would devalue their rose oil.

Hill said, ”There are two tests that we’ll be doing. First is the physical test—there will be no need to open the bottles. The second test, a chemical test, requires opening the bottles.”

He paused for a moment. ”However,” he continued, ”as long as the first test is done, we can begin negotiating. If you guys are satisfied with the price, then we can go into the second test.”
