My Sweet Physician Wife Calls The Shots

"As we all know, although Naboo is small, it is rich in mineral resources. As long as the President can allocate us the mining rights for 10 mineral veins, consider this done!"

When Wei Du heard the request for ten mineral veins, his eyelids twitched a few times.

To tell the truth, at this moment, Wei Du really wanted to chase the man out. The man was asking for too much. Like a lion that opened its jaw wide, the man tried to take advantage of Wei Du's illness and take his life. Once Wei Du handed over the 10 mineral veins, thousands of accusing fingers would point at him even if he obtained Camino's recognition. The people of Naboo would probably blame him to the core.

However, the first thing he thought of was Imperial Phoenix Group--the super conglomerate that purchased 27 of their mineral mines when Naboo was still very backward and clueless. At that time, Naboo was just about to start developing its economy.

Wei Du originally did not want to do anything to Nangong Nuannuan, but after hearing Shi Zhongcheng's suggestion, he instantly felt a chill down his spine. One would do anything when prompted by anger--Wei Du made a perfect decision in his heart.

"10 mineral veins are too much. It's impossible. If I really gave you 10 mineral veins, the fingers of blame will ruin me. I can only give you 4."

Shi Zhongcheng chuckled and stood up.

"It seems that President Wei Du doesn't care about discussing matters with a nobody like me. Goodbye."

After saying that, he pretended to leave.

"Oh, why are you angry, Mr. Shi? Since Mr. Shi is here to discuss business with me, we can bargain. If you don't think this price is good enough, we can discuss new terms."

Shi Zhongcheng did not sit back down. Instead, he looked at Wei Du who was in his way, and said, "If the one who came today was Chi Yang, and he proposed the mining rights for 10 mineral veins, you might not even think of it as expensive, Mr. President. So, since you don't trust me at all, I think there is no need to continue the discussion."

"Mr. Shi, you have misunderstood me. I swear that I never had such intentions! To further develop Naboo, my country sold many mineral veins to Sab years ago. As a result, our own mineral veins are getting depleted. Therefore, whether you or Lieutenant General Chi Yang approaches me, we have not much choice in this matter. However, Mr. Shi's proposal is indeed very attractive. How about this? I'll present two mineral veins to the Shi family as gifts and two more to Camino?"

"Mr. President, do you think that Camino is lacking in mineral veins? Two mineral veins will be of no interest to the Shi family, let alone Camino."

Wei Du's eyes widened. "Once a mineral vein is excavated, it can earn at least tens of billions if it produces jade."

"Yet, can you guarantee that the mineral veins given to us can produce jade and diamonds? If you give us four mineral veins that are full of jade, we can definitely come to an agreement. However, determining jade is difficult even for gods. If we can't find anything good from our four mineral veins, will the president give us four more?"

Wei Du smiled. "If we can mine jade in just any mineral veins in Naboo, then I wouldn't have to ask another country for help. How about this? Six mineral veins. I really can't offer more than that."

"Eight. Nothing less."

"Deal."

"However, we'll select these eight veins ourselves."

Wei Du contemplated that for a while, then nodded in agreement.

"Okay, no problem."

Camino generally liked the jade stones from Naboo, but determining the presence or quality of jade was difficult, even for gods. Even if it was covered in a layer of weathered surface, no one could identify jade, let alone the things buried deep in the river bed.

Therefore, there was no difference between them giving it away and letting others pick. After all, not everyone could be as lucky as Imperial Phoenix Group.
