Chapter 2628: Chapter 1900: Words that Strike the Heart (Part 2)
Chen Feiqiu didn’t give Vanas this opportunity; he said to Bai Xiaosheng in front of him, "You are the special business consultant appointed by my father, and you are involved in this matter, not to mention my close friend. You speaking on my behalf is more than welcome; you can decide everything! If you say this matter is settled, I’ll immediately report to my father. Your decision is my decision!"
After speaking, Chen Feiqiu glanced at Vanas.
Vanas immediately felt choked with words.
"Mr. Awak Wak Lakla, saying this is not quite appropriate." Nearby, Alger forced a smile and interjected, "Just a consultant, how can he make decisions for you..."
In Alger’s eyes, letting that Huaxia person decide this matter would undoubtedly be very detrimental to them!
As soon as Alger spoke, Vanas felt his heart sink and couldn’t help but use his eyes to stop him.
What is the situation now, does Alger have a place to speak? He still doesn’t understand his situation!
Vanas wanted to curse his foolish nephew.
Chen Feiqiu turned to Alger, his gaze icy.
"Are you accusing me of being wrong in my own house, or are you saying my father’s decision is incorrect?"
"I didn’t mean that, I just..." Alger’s face changed and he hurriedly said.
Vanas wished he could cover his nephew’s mouth.
One wrong word wasn’t enough; he has to continue!
"What do you mean, is there a place for you to speak here, Mr. Alger!" Chen Feiqiu said coldly, "Or are you saying you feel there’s no need to negotiate?"
Alger was frightened by Chen Feiqiu’s look and words.
Vanas quickly smiled and said to Bai Xiaosheng, "I also agree with Mr. Awak Wak Lakla’s decision. Mr. Bai, please express your opinion!"
Bai Xiaosheng watched this scene unfold, smiled faintly, and glanced at Chen Feiqiu.
Only then did Chen Feiqiu’s expression return to normal, making a "please" gesture to Bai Xiaosheng.
Bai Xiaosheng did not stand on ceremony and spoke.
"Regarding Mr. Alger’s previous actions, whether he’s intentional or not, whether he’s coerced or not, we’ll look only at the results, not the reasons!"
Bai Xiaosheng said slowly.
"The fact is, his actions have caused serious reputational damage to me, the leader of the Huaxia Commercial Delegation, and made Oshan’s commercial department a laughingstock among the public and internationally, greatly undermining the dignity of Oshan Chieftaincy and the prestige of the Grand Chieftain!"
"What we need to discuss now is how to settle this matter!" Bai Xiaosheng’s voice was cold.
Vanas wanted to calm things down and make a big issue small.
Bai Xiaosheng instead wanted to highlight the severity.
Vanas’s expression changed slightly, forcing a smile and saying, "What you’ve said is perhaps too serious..."
"Concerning national dignity, any so-called minor issue you mention is actually a very serious matter!" Bai Xiaosheng said gravely, "If Mr. Vanas doesn’t recognize the seriousness of this issue, then I think there’s no need to talk!"
Chen Feiqiu cooperated perfectly, and upon hearing there’d be no negotiation, he immediately acted as if to get up.
Alger was taken aback.
Vanas also quickly said, "No, no, it was my way of expressing it. Actually, Mr. Hogson attaches great importance to this matter. It’s a big issue involving Oshan and Huaxia!"
Vanas has now redefined the nature of the matter.
Only then did Chen Feiqiu sit back down.
"Since it’s a big matter, we feel it shouldn’t be hastily concluded and must be treated seriously, so that we can reflect and move forward without repeating mistakes, right." Bai Xiaosheng said with a smile, "And Mr. Vanas, what you mentioned, about the Hogson Family increasing their commercial investment in Oshan within five years, is clearly not a very good attitude, it’s too vague, don’t you agree?"
Bai Xiaosheng had already seen through Vanas, a businessman clearly playing business tricks—"asking sky-high prices to settle on the ground."
However, it’s done in reverse.
Thus Bai Xiaosheng wouldn’t be polite, forcing him to correct his stance.
Chen Feiqiu was right earlier; Alger dug his own hole but hadn’t yet gotten the deserved punishment.
And Bai Xiaosheng didn’t plan to personally punish Alger; he aimed at affecting his family, making them bleed, naturally leading to someone punishing Alger a thousandfold in his place.
Moreover, Bai Xiaosheng had decided before coming here to take down the Hogson Family, to contribute to Oshan, present a "gift" to gain the Grand Chieftain couple’s recognition, and proceed with subsequent grand cooperation.
Vanas saw Bai Xiaosheng aggressively assert under reasonable grounds and could only bow his head first.
This Huaxia person’s eloquence is terrifying, seemingly hitting the bullseye with every word.
Vanas became extremely cautious of Bai Xiaosheng.
However, Vanas still had confidence because he came with a heap of "benefits," all promised by Alger’s father Hogson, originally intended for Oshan here.
Vanas simply wanted to squeeze them out like squeezing toothpaste, to obtain the smallest concession in exchange for forgiveness from Oshan.
"Then, let’s do this." Vanas looked at Chen Feiqiu, seeming to make a big decision, and said, "Our Hogson Family will invest in ten factories within Oshan this year, with a total investment not less than two billion US Dollars, providing fifteen thousand jobs, and not requiring special favorable policies, how about that..."
Chen Feiqiu, listening on the side, was moved.
This price is genuinely not low.
Currently, Oshan’s business is sluggish; this investment will certainly boost some economy.
Bai Xiaosheng listened, seeming unreactive, his expression unchanged, and said calmly, "As far as I know, the Hogson Family has twenty factories in Karan, with a total investment of eight billion US Dollars. And in Oshan, solely the industry overseen by Mr. Alger is equivalent. So your proposed new investment seems rather insufficient."
