Chapter 654: Linda
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
After leaving Prosperous Logistics, Luo Feng had barely taken two steps when he received a call from Eld.
Elder’s voice sounded noticeably older.
However, Luo Feng still had a certain respect for Eld. After all, being able to return his call so promptly suggested that Eld was still sharp-minded. Such a person could discern the overall situation clearly and had a certain foresight. Collaborating with him wouldn’t be problematic.
“Mr. Luo,” Eld began, “I’ve made up my mind. I agree to your terms. But before I act, I want to hear how you plan to help me.”
Eld waited for Luo Feng’s solution after finishing his piece.
Without beating around the bush, Luo Feng directly conveyed his plan, “Currently, your old clients mainly believe you are giving concessions to other companies. That’s why they are discontented. When they come to you again, simply decline them straight away, no matter what they say.” Upon hearing this, Eld was taken aback.
“If I do that, won’t I lose clients? Do you think they’re fools?”
“Of course they aren’t,” Luo Feng responded immediately, “In fact, they are very clever.”
Luo Feng never underestimated anyone. In the world of business, those who managed to establish and run their own companies inevitably possessed certain skills.
He continued, “If they suspect you’re conceding, a simple investigation will reveal you’re trying to suppress me. Hence, when they can’t strike a deal with you, they’ll certainly approach me. By doing so, they hope you’ll continue to suppress me, and in turn, you’ll have to offer even lower prices to meet their demands.”
By the time Luo Feng finished, realization dawned upon Eld. Had Luo Feng foreseen so far ahead? According to Luo Feng’s words, Eld was gradually delivering himself into Luo Feng’s hands.
After those old clients approached Luo Feng, if Luo Feng agreed to negotiate, Eld would be forced to slash prices to retain them. If Luo Feng declined, these clients might complain about high prices but would eventually return to Eld. After all, years of collaboration ensured a certain level of trust.
“I never imagined someone as young as you could be so strategic,” Eld remarked, a hint of admiration in his voice. “Provoking you at the outset seems to have been a mistake.”
Luo Feng did not comment on Eld’s observation.
“Mr. Eld, I’ve presented my proposal,” Luo Feng stated, “Being the astute man you are, it should be evident that I am the only one who can help you out of this predicament. Now it depends on whether you’re willing to accept my assistance.”
After a moment of silence, Eld responded resolutely, “I’ll do as you’ve said within three days. After that, I’ll accompany you to meet Mike. However, if someone approaches you during these three days, I hope you’ll assist me.” With that, both men ended the call.
Luo Feng, holding his phone, remained emotionally unaffected. While Mike was a prominent figure in Atlanta, Luo Feng’s objective in coming to the United States, and specifically Atlanta, wasn’t business-related. Mike was merely an obstacle that needed to be removed. Whether Mike stayed or left had no
bearing on Luo Feng’s mission to collect artifacts. To Luo Feng, dealing with Mike felt like a waste of time.
With a sigh of mild frustration, Luo Feng dialed Liu Jian, instructing him to gather more information and locate artifacts in the US, hoping to make some progress.
Just as he ended the call with Liu Jian, Luo Feng’s phone rang again. The incoming call was from an unfamiliar number.
Upon answering, a cold female voice inquired, “Is this Mr. Luo Feng?”
“Yes, it is. Who am I speaking to?”
“Hello, Mr. Luo. My name is Linda. We’re currently seeking to collaborate with a logistics company. After some research, we’d like to discuss potential collaboration with you. Do you have some time?”
Almost immediately, Luo Feng deduced that this must be one of Eld’s clients. “Of course,” he responded warmly, “I’m free now. Why don’t we arrange a meeting?
Soon after, both agreed to meet at Luo Feng’s logistics company.
Not long after Luo Feng’s return, a woman named Linda appeared before him. Linda assessed Luo Feng from head to toe, seemingly surprised that the man Eld had gone to great lengths to counter was such a young individual.
“Good day, Mr. Luo,” Linda greeted, “I am Linda, the Business Director of Central Commerce and Trade.”
She handed a business card to Luo Feng. Without a second glance, he pocketed the card.
“We’re here today with hopes of establishing a long-term partnership,” Linda explained, “Such an association would be beneficial for both parties..”
