Leveling Up With My Pet

248 Conference Room No. 2



The price, undeniably, was far from affordable, prompting the urgency to make a phone call.

The charismatic leader, Liu Yong, confidently led the group out of the conference room, leaving a sense of anticipation lingering in the air. Being proactive, Walter Jeff swiftly grabbed the phone and dialled Mr Mel Parker's number, meticulously relaying the situation at hand.

In the reception room, tension filled the air as the representatives from Diya Company engaged in intense discussions. Meanwhile, Kanter, the enigmatic figure, remained silent and contemplative, profoundly pondering the weight of the decision before him.

Gobert, typically the silent observer, finally spoke up, offering a suggestion to the boss. "Boss, considering the circumstances, I believe we can accept Global Shipping Group's conditions."

Kanter responded slowly, weighing the pros and cons. "But 1,000 tons per year is excessive. We can neither consume nor utilize such a massive amount. One or two hundred tons, at most, would be sufficient."

Gobert, having pondered the matter beforehand, presented his thoughts. "We don't necessarily need that much for our own use. We can sell the surplus to other cosmetic companies at a higher price, say $15,000 or even $20,000 per kilogram, and profit from the difference."

A glimmer of hope flickered in the eyes of the Diya Company members, but Kanter shook his head gently. "1,000 tons is too vast. Even if we sell it to other companies, we would need to invest $10 billion upfront—an astronomical sum."

Indeed, such substantial capital would entail significant risks.

Kanter added, "If it were 500 tons, I could agree to the terms offered by Global Shipping Group."

He leisurely sipped his coffee in Liu Yong's office, having already presented the conditions. At this point, he only needed to wait for the outcomes—ideally, both companies accepting the offer. However, if they declined, he remained assured that they would eventually come to desire the very thing he possessed.

Much to Liu Yong's surprise, the response arrived sooner than expected. Shortly after finishing his coffee, Qiu Yang knocked on the door and entered. "Boss, they have considered the offer and wish to further discuss it with us."

Liu Yong waved his hand dismissively. "Inform them all to gather in Conference Room No. 2. I will personally address them."

Having already devised a plan, Liu Yong knew precisely how to approach the negotiations.

Conference Room No. 2, more spacious than the previous one, easily accommodated the assembled group of 50 to 60 people. All eyes were fixed on Liu Yong, eagerly awaiting his speech.

Liu Yong surveyed the room, projecting his voice with confidence. "Ladies and gentlemen, I have a proposal. Since both of your companies seek the fish oil derived from this rare white fish, a solution can be reached. Each company will commit to purchasing a minimum of 500 tons per year, priced at $10,000 per kilogram."

Kanter, upon hearing this, breathed a sigh of relief. The reduced quantity alleviated a significant portion of his burden. Being an astute businessman, he quickly honed in on a crucial point and stood up. "Mr. Liu, will your company exclusively sell this deep-sea fish oil to only our two companies, ensuring it won't be available to other businesses?"

Liu Yong responded with certainty. "I promise you that for the next three years, we will exclusively supply our products to both of your companies. As for the period beyond that, we can reassess the situation when the time comes."

Three years seemed more than reasonable.

Kanter readily agreed. "No problem. I accept your conditions, and we can proceed to sign the contract now."

On the other hand, Walter Jeff stood up, his plea evident. "Mr. Liu, may I have ten minutes? I need to step outside and make a phone call."

Clearly, he lacked authority in this matter and required instructions from the venerable Mr Melpark.

Liu Yong graciously assented. "Certainly, take your time. You have ten minutes."

Walter Jeff expressed his gratitude, excused himself to make the call, and returned within minutes. "Mr. Liu, we agree to your proposal."

"Excellent. The matter is practically settled," Liu Yong exclaimed, visibly pleased.

After all, sealing a deal worth $10 billion was an achievement of colossal proportions that his generation had never encountered before.

Liu Yong continued, his voice resonating with enthusiasm. "Now, let's delve into the specific details."

With the overall framework finalized, the subsequent negotiations proceeded smoothly. Liu Yong was right; the Global Shipping Group held all the cards in this seller's market.

Before noon, all aspects had been negotiated, and all three parties signed a formal contract.

The signing of the contract brought not only joy to Qiu Yang, Hu Shijun, and others but even Liu Yong himself couldn't help but revel in the success—a whopping $10 billion!

At noon, Liu Yong treated his guests to a celebratory meal at a high-end restaurant, marking the triumphant culmination of their cooperation.

In the Great Trench, the Overlord plunged once again, brandishing its colossal spear as it swam more profoundly into the abyss. It continued its journey until it reached a depth of over 3,000 meters, where it finally came to a halt.

This depth seemed sufficient. The Overlord could already detect the presence of the elusive strange white fish within its perceptual range. However, the ones measuring over ten or even twenty meters in length were not the intended targets.

The Overlord sought a massive fish, surpassing 30 meters in length and weighing at least a hundred tons.

Each of these colossal fish harboured a staggering 40 to 50 tons of fat within their stomachs. To obtain 1,000 tons of fat, approximately 20 of these gargantuan fish would suffice.

The Overlord swam slowly, meticulously scouring the area for its prey.

It didn't take long for a suitable target to appear within its perceptual range—a strange white fish measuring 30 to 40 meters long and weighing nearly 200 tons.

That was the one—the creature the Overlord had been seeking!

With remarkable speed, the Overlord surged forward, and the strange white fish, recognizing its impending doom, attempted to escape with a flick of its tail.

The Overlord's reputation was formidable within this trench, and these strange white fish were mere ingredients in its grand survival scheme.

The overlord, weighing over 200 tons, effortlessly outmatched and overpowered the white monster fish in terms of tonnage or speed.

There was no escape!

Drawing near, the Overlord lunged forward, its colossal spear piercing through the white fish's body with lethal precision.

Morning arrived, and Liu Yong rose from his slumber, freshened up, and surveyed the living room and dining area. His parents must have gone out for their morning exercise, as they were yet to return, leaving breakfast temporarily out of the equation.

Grabbing his mobile phone, Liu Yong sent a message to his parents before heading out.

The Cullinan awaited him, carrying Kang Zhenggang and He Qiang on board.

Liu Yong gestured dismissively. "Let's go, neither of us has had breakfast yet. We'll find a place to eat first."

They departed, and Kang Zhenggang inquired as he drove, "Boss, where would you like to have breakfast?"

Liu Yong responded, "I've heard of a high-end breakfast restaurant. Some people jokingly claim that even the building's rent collectors dare not have breakfast there every day. Let's check it out."

Qiang said, "That sounds impressive; I'd love to see it."

Approximately 20 to 30 minutes later, they arrived at the restaurant's entrance.

Stepping out of the vehicle, Liu Yong's initial impression of the establishment was positive. Waving his hand, he exclaimed, "Let's go inside."

Entering the restaurant, they were struck by its upscale ambience and grandeur.

Oddly enough, despite the high prices, the place appeared busy, with seven or eight tables already occupied. It seemed that Huahai City boasted a fair number of wealthy individuals.

The three of them found a table and sat down. Liu Yong gestured and said, "Order whatever you like. It's on me. Don't hold back."

Kang Zhenggang and He Qiang each picked up a menu displaying the breakfast options and soon wore expressions of astonishment.
