35 Fishbone Food Corporation (2/2)
It has been ten years since he had an orange this delicious. He chewed on the soft orange as his edged and rough face showed a sign of excitement. However, he immediately turned into his usual collected expression when he met Jiang Chen’s smile.
To greet the guest with luxury like this, especially including the assistant as well, demonstrated not only his good faith but also the amount of wealth he had.
Zhao Chenwu thoughtfully looked at Su Lei who still acted calm, but her mouth was chewing non-stop. He pushed the toothpick inside a slice of orange and didn’t continue to eat.
There would be plenty of time to taste the delicacy after the business was done.
”Does it taste good?” Jiang Chen asked with a smile. He also picked up a slice of orange and put in his mouth.
”It’s delicious. To be honest, even though the Sixth Street can produce some fruits, the production is limited. Due to the radiation, it is difficult to maintain the quality of the fruit, which means only some are edible. The rest could only be extracted for nutrient purposes.” These were not secrets at all as anyone on the street would know. Zhao Chenwu did not hide any information. Instead, he was straight forward and acted as honestly as possible.
”I have heard about this before. Therefore I see opportunities.” Jiang Chen nodded.
”The canned food at the exchange office must be Mr. Jiang's move.” Zhao Chenwu said without any fluctuation in his emotion.
”You are correct. I sold it at a price of 50 crystals per can. I heard that the price was raised to 60?”
”In that case, since Mr. Jiang showed up in the inner circle and not the exchange office, you must be preparing for a big deal.” Zhao Chenwu’s face displayed a burning passion.
”Indeed, I believe my products would sell very well in the Sixth Street.” The opportunity finally came. A glimpse of confidence flashed across Jiang Chen’s face, as the person who brought up the question was important in any negotiation, for the one that took the initiative would not be at an advantage.
Zhao Chenwu couldn’t contain his excitement that he was no longer calm..
The canned food would sell out the moment it enters the market. As a capitalist himself, Zhao Chenwu would not let the profit in front of him escape.
”Do I have the pleasure of becoming your business partner?” A thought provoking smile appeared on Zhao Chenwu’s face.
”Of course, if Mr. Zhao has enough influence,” Jiang Chen responded with a vague answer.
”It looks like Mr. Jiang didn’t investigate about me.” Zhao Chenwu smiled.
”Any individual or force can become our business partner granted they meet all the requirements. Investigating every individual within the inner circle would be inefficient. I know that as long as I show up here, people with business insight into business will find me. It is only a matter of time,” Jiang Chen shook his head and said calmly.
However, Zhao Chenwu recognized the other relevant information within Jiang Chen’s words.
”Are you talking about the trade? Wait, you can provide stable supply?” Zhao Chenwu pressed his hands against the table and stood up immediately. He stared at Jiang Chen with disbelief.
[It would be impossible in Wanghai City. It must be an organization outside of Wanghai. Simulated ecosystem facility? Regardless of what it is, I must make the deal.]
”Mr. Zhao, you are acting overzealously,” Although he was ecstatic in his mind, he remained collected and said it without any emotion.
”I apologize for my manner. Allow me to introduce myself again.” Zhao Chenwu realized his actions were overeager. He fixed up his clothes and extended his right hand. ”Member of the Group of Ten Council, president of the Zhao Corporation, Zhao Chenwu. On behalf of the Zhao Corporation, I extend my warm welcome to your company’s presence regarding potential deals at the Sixth Street.”
[Oh my, part of the Group of Ten Council!]
Jiang Chen hid his surprise. These are the conglomerate that controlled all the capital within the neutral Sixth Street. Since they are part of the forces in the Sixth Street, safety would not be a concern either. The absolute neutrality is a law that was strictly enforced for more than 20 years.
He stood up and shook Zhao Chenwu’s hand to express his gratitude.
”I’m Jiang Chen. A representative who is responsible for the negotiation of the deal. On behalf of the Fishbone Food Corporation, I express my gratitude to the Zhao Corporation at the Sixth Street. Let’s put the gestures aside and talk about the details of the business.”
”Haha, Mr. Jiang is a straightforward person. This was what I expected.” Joyous by the suggestion, Zhao Chenwu happily accepted.
He originally thought Jiang Chen was a flipper merchant, common to the wasteland, with some unique products. Even if he brought him considerable profit in one trade, it would not be long term as flipper merchants wandered across the wasteland without a home.
However, Jiang Chen’s proposition was a long-term trade agreement which offered a significantly different meaning.
A stable trade route, with an external survivor camp with the product being luxury canned food, Zhao Chenwu was thankful that he took the initiative first. If he let this money printing machine escape from in front of him, he would be the laughing stock of the entire inner circle merchants.
