The Demanding Lin Yuan
The Demanding Lin Yuan
Lin Yuan sat on the water rhinoceros leather sofa and picked up the phone to call Qi Haitao.
He had met Qi Haitao at Sky City's private faction territory on Star Web.
Lin Yuan had initially rejected Qi Haitao's offer to meet in real life to discuss the partnership, but after the latter's repeated offers of hospitality, Lin Yuan eventually exchanged phone numbers with Qi Haitao.
Lin Yuan heard the call ring three times before Qi Haitao picked up.
Qi Haitao said in a friendly tone, "Brother, I didn't manage to get your name back at Sky City's private faction territory. May I know how I should address you?"
Lin Yuan chuckled and replied, "You don't need to call me brother. Considering that I delivered you 100 evolved Angelfish of Bliss in three days, I trust that the Sea Bliss Clan now acknowledges Sky City's sincerity. However, I can't say that Sky City has received the same level of sincerity from the Sea Bliss Clan. Do you really think you can call me brother after only giving Sky City mid to high-grade adult Angelfishes of Bliss?"
Qi Haitao's tone immediately became stern with a touch of annoyance. "What? I instructed my subordinates to give you 80 high-grade and 20 supreme-grade adult Angelfish of Bliss. I can't believe they got it wrong!"
Qi Haitao's tone changed to coaxing as he said, "Brother, I'll compensate you on our next transaction. I'll tell my men to give you 60 high-grade and 40 supreme-grade Angelfish of Bliss. My apologies about this. Haha, do you like the fish coats I personally picked out for you? They are the best that the Sea Bliss Clan has to offer!"
Lin Yuan's words were like a violent slap to the smiling Qi Haitao.
If this was any other time, Qi Haitao would never have swallowed his pride no matter how badly he wanted to work with Sky City.
However, Sky City had just delivered 100 Bronze/Epic gestating Angelfish of Bliss to the Sea Bliss Clan.
This allowed his father, who was the leader of the Sea Bliss Clan, to decide to cut off all other fey business dealings and concentrate on nurturing the Angelfish of Bliss.
He had also already sent people to the Spirit Guards with the contract between the Sea Bliss Clan and Connected Beast Park to force Connected Beast Park to pay for the price of the Sea Bliss Clan's change in business model.
It could be said that the Sea Bliss Clan was in dire need of Sky City's Creation Master resources. Otherwise, the Sea Bliss Clan would be at the mercy of Connected Beast Park's future wrath.
Qi Haitao could not help but sigh to himself. I was too shortsighted previously. Why did I give Sky City adult Angelfish of Bliss like that?
An amused expression appeared on Lin Yuan's face as he gently knocked the soft leather of the water rhinoceros leather sofa.
Qi Haitao was truly the young leader of the Sea Bliss Clan. The things he said were so interesting.
Lin Yuan was not confused about Qi Haitao's attitude toward him. After all, Sky City had demonstrated its impressive Creation Master resources to the Sea Bliss Clan.
Although Qi Haitao was seemingly admitting to the mistake, he was actually testing Lin Yuan's ability.
Qi Haitao had also shown the Sea Bliss Clan's last trump card by trading 80 adult high-grade and 20 supreme-grade Angelfish of Bliss with every transaction. He also shoved all the blame to his subordinates and wiped himself clean of all the errors from the last transaction.
It could be seen that Qi Haitao had a strong negotiation ability.
Nonetheless, Lin Yuan did not plan to argue with Qi Haitao and allow him to continue testing him.
Instead, he told Qi Haitao in a determined and straightforward manner, "Will all of the transactions between the Sea Bliss Clan and Sky City lack sincerity like this? Will the Sea Bliss Clan try to trick Sky City with female Angelfish of Bliss that can't reproduce again?"
Lin Yuan's words caused Qi Haitao to break out in cold sweat.
As far as Qi Haitao was aware, the adult Angelfish of Bliss should have been close to death by the time they arrived at Sky City in the fey storage box.
Sky City should be seeking the Sea Bliss Clan out for help now and asking their advice on how to nurture Angelfish of Bliss.
Qi Haitao had already thought of the conditions he would set in exchange for the advice.
Surprisingly, Sky City not only did not care that the Angelfish of Bliss were close to death, but they had also even closely investigated the physical condition of the Angelfish of Bliss.
One had to know that the Angelfish of Bliss were the foundation of the Sea Bliss Clan.
Naturally, if the Sea Bliss Clan wanted to rely on Sky City, which possessed so many Creation Master resources, Qi Haitao would have to prevent Sky City from getting their hands on female Angelfish of Bliss with reproductive abilities at all costs.
Just as Qi Haitao was stuck between a rock and a hard place, he heard Lin Yuan's clear and strong voice say, "In the next transaction, Sky City can pretend to forget about the Sea Bliss Clan's trick. But since you want to play dirty, Sky City will have to demand 50 high-grade and 50 supreme-grade Angelfish of Bliss from the Sea Bliss Clan."
Lin Yuan's request greatly exceeded Qi Haitao's initial expectation.
But after he was backed into a corner by Lin Yuan and had his tricks exposed, Qi Haitao breathed a sigh of relief when he heard what Lin Yuan requested.
Just as Qi Haitao was about to agree, Lin Yuan spoke again. "If the Sea Bliss Clan wants to express their sincerity, continue to send us 200 seven-colored fish coats. Additionally, I want the Sea Bliss Clan to provide Sky City with 10 complete Fantasy Breed fey carcasses with every transaction."
Lin Yuan's words made Qi Haitao's jaw drop, and he could not help but curse Lin Yuan internally. How can he be so demanding!?
Qi Haitao felt that Lin Yuan was even greedier than the Devil.
He immediately pushed what the Sea Bliss Clan could offer to the limit by demanding the continued delivery of 200 seven-colored fish coats. He even asked for 10 complete Fantasy Breed fey carcasses.
These terms would result in the Sea Bliss Clan offering a manifold of the original conditions.
