Rebirth of the Republic of China: The Story of the Chaebol

Not only was Sun Tong angry about the Ying government's exorbitant demands, but Carl was also very angry.

Originally, the two sides were talking well, but in the end, the Ying government caused such trouble, which made him lose face in front of Sun Tong.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Rivers, the price you offered is unacceptable to us. And because you made such a random offer without any sincerity, we have decided to put this deal on hold. We can only discuss the details later."

Although Carl looked apologetic, his tone was full of sarcasm. He didn't care what the negotiator on the other side would think. He only knew that he was fooled by the Yingguo guy this time.

"Wait, Mr. Karl, shouldn't you make a counter-offer first?"

In fact, there was quite a stir within the Ying government regarding this colonial transaction.

Some people think that since the Ying government has given up such a large colony this time, it should make a lot of money from Huayou Company.

But some people think that although the colonies they took out this time look big, they are all places of little value. If they ask for too high a price for these "scraps", it is very likely that Huayou Company will be scared away.

The two sides discussed this issue for a long time, and finally they decided to let Rivers, who was in charge of the negotiations, set the price.

Originally everyone thought that Rivers would only offer a price of 400 to 500 million pounds at most, but who could have thought that this guy would ask for 1 billion pounds right away.

How much is this?

This money is probably enough for Sun Tong to directly buy control of southern Africa from Ying Country. With this money, who the hell would buy remote places like North Borneo and Guinea Island?

In fact, Rivers had his own thoughts behind the offer. Through the previous negotiations, he felt that he had grasped Carl's mind. In his opinion, Huayou Company's previous performance was enough to show how much they valued this deal.

Although he had no idea what the purpose of Huayou Company buying so many garbage colonies was, it did not prevent him from trying to get more benefits for himself in this deal.

He set the price at 1 billion pounds, and naturally he did not think that Huayou Company would accept such an offer. According to his idea, even if the final price of the transaction was set at 500 million pounds, it would still be much higher than the 300 million pounds of the Ying government's offer. By then, the extra 200 million would all be obtained for the Ying government with his personal ability.

According to the past habits of the Ying government, he, as the main person in charge of the negotiations, will definitely be rewarded, and the amount of the reward will not be low.

But who could have thought that Huayou Company would simply choose not to play after hearing his offer.

This time he was really dumbfounded. After all, his immediate superior had emphasized to him more than once that the top government officials attached great importance to this transaction. After all, the Ying government was not having a good time now, and many departments were still waiting for new funds.

"No need for that. You quoted such an exaggerated price right at the beginning. I really don't see your sincerity in this deal. In this case, it is better to end the negotiation early to save us from wasting more time."

After saying this, Karl took his people and left the meeting room without looking back.

Seeing that the task assigned to him by the top management was messed up, the panic-stricken Rivers even forgot to stop Carl and just sat in his seat stupidly.

At this moment, the Ying government is still waiting for the results of the negotiations.

But who could have imagined that not long after, the government reported that Huayou Company's negotiation team had flown to Gaul overnight.

The Ying government was completely furious. They were still waiting for the rice to be cooked, but in the end the cooked duck flew away.

"Mr. Rivers, I would like to ask you, why did you make an exaggerated offer of 10 billion pounds to Huayou Company? When you took on this task, didn't you repeatedly guarantee that there would be no problem? Then what is going on now? In addition, why didn't you stop the person when he wanted to leave? Why did you just let him go? Do you know how much loss your death has brought to the Great Ying Empire?"

For the Ying Kingdom, except for the limited number of owners who have higher value, the value of the majority of colonies occupied by them may only be to publicize the powerful military force of the Ying Empire.

The Ying government did not pay any cost when it occupied these colonies. Now it can rely on selling these lands in exchange for a large amount of funds. This is a good deal with no cost no matter how you look at it.

But now?

The deal seemed to be on the verge of being done, but it fell through at the last minute. How could the senior officials of the Ying government accept this? You know, not long ago, they had already planned how to allocate the funds for the transaction.

Now that all of this has come to naught, it's no wonder that the group of people present are acting like they want to eat someone!!!
