"Half price! We hope Comrade Su can fulfill our order at half price."
"What?!"
Hearing such a ruthless price cut, Su Su thought she had misheard. Although she had seen strange people before, she had never seen anyone as strange as this. To actually cut her price in half was not a help in her time of need, but rather adding insult to injury!
Su Su scoffed, "If that's how you want to talk, then forget it. I'd rather let my goods rot in the warehouse than sell them to you at half price!"
"Comrade Su, don't be impulsive. If half price isn't enough, we can still talk. What do you think is a suitable price to sell it to us for?"
"Yes, look what the Du family has become. They'll try to make as much money as they can. We don't care about your reputation, so you shouldn't criticize us either. Don't you know what doing business is all about?"
The seasoned veterans exchanged glances, shook their heads and smiled at Su Su, as if to say that she was still too naive, or to mock her for being too stupid.
Su Su's face quickly flushed, and that familiar sense of humiliation enveloped her again. Was it possible for anyone to step on her head now?
"Heh, since you've brought it up, I'll just say this: I'll only offer a 10% discount at most."
"Ten percent? Comrade Su, you're being far too confident. To put it bluntly, at this price, even if you were fishing like Jiang Ziya, you wouldn't find anyone willing to take the bait!"
"That's right, Comrade Su, you're really asking for the moon! If you're only going to give us a 10% discount, we might as well buy from Jiang Wanqing. Her products are already cheap, and she has a good reputation. What do you have?"
Upon hearing Jiang Wanqing's name, Su Su's damned competitive spirit immediately surged. She frowned and clenched her fists tightly.
"Twenty percent! We can't go any lower!"
"35%!" an older boss said, hands behind his back. "Give us 35%, and I'll add another thousand orders!"
"Yes, 35% is barely acceptable. If we still can't agree on this price, Comrade Su, you've really wasted our good intentions. We won't contact you again if we want to cooperate in the future!"
These people are organized and disciplined, and they can be easily commanded. They all speak with one voice, so Su Su can't find a way to squeeze in. She frowned deeply. Sanwu was in an awkward situation where it was both feasible and not feasible. The profit was so low that it was invisible, but it was still better than not being able to sell a single unit.
To put it bluntly, this is a gamble. If she wins, Jiang Nan will live, and she will have the leverage to continue fighting Jiang Wanqing. If she loses, both she and Jiang Nan will die, and Jiang Wanqing will win completely!
Su Su quickly racked her brains, and after about a minute, her eyes lit up.
The normal methods were definitely not going to work, but she still had a backup plan!
She can make a quick buck here, extort some from Jiang Wanqing, and then she can make a comeback. Given that woman's level of confidence, she certainly wouldn't have imagined that she would resort to such a risky move at this point...
Su Su smiled, looked up at the partners again, and responded.
"Okay, 35% it is. Everyone sit down and let's discuss the details. But I have one request: I want full payment!"
"Hahaha... Comrade Su, are you joking? Your Jiangnan region has no reputation left. What if we pay you in full and you can't deliver the goods? To be frank, we're already being generous by offering a deposit. Don't be so ungrateful. This is how you do business. You're in the position of being chosen, not having the right to choose!"
The old men looked at each other and burst into laughter. Su Su's face burned. If she weren't in such a difficult situation, she wouldn't have let these old men haggle over her price!
"you……"
"Comrade Su, have you thought this through? Don't make us lose everything."
"Okay! Deposit it is!"
Su Su gritted her teeth and agreed. Now she was truly at the mercy of others and had no choice but to bow her head. In order to continue fighting with Jiang Wanqing in the future, she could only endure it.
She quickly signed contracts with everyone present. Each person received a copy, but she only looked at the first one and didn't examine the rest closely before signing them all.
"Hahaha... Comrade Su, it's a pleasure to cooperate with you!" The business partner shook hands with Su Su.
She suppressed her nausea, shook hands with each of them, and after seeing them off, she slammed the door shut and roared angrily.
"Aaaaah... Damn old bastards! You're really good at taking advantage of people's misfortune! Just you wait! I'll make you spit out every last bit of what you've swallowed!"
But right now, she has another thing to do at the same time...
Before she knew it, it was time for Nannan to start school. Jiang Wanqing contacted a local school, and Nannan started attending first grade directly. This saved time and allowed the child to formally learn elementary school knowledge.
On the first day of school, Jiang Wanqing originally intended to take her child to school herself, but something came up and she had to ask her parents to take care of the child.
Jiang Jianguo and Xue He were certainly happy to oblige. Before leaving home, they tidied up their granddaughter, put a colorful schoolbag on her back, and each held one of her hands as they headed from home to school.
However, they were so caught up in their joy that they didn't notice that someone had been following them ever since they left the house...
The journey from home to school takes about fifteen minutes, which is neither far nor near. Since it was the child's first time going to school, Jiang Jianguo and Xue He deliberately walked slowly so that the child could familiarize himself with the surrounding roads and environment.
There was a main road ahead, and the school was about 400 meters away. The elderly couple were about to lead the child across when suddenly a person with a cane rushed over and fell to the ground in front of them.
"Oh dear... my old arms and legs... help me..."
Upon seeing an elderly person lying in front of him, Jiang Jianguo first let go of the child's hand and helped the person up.
"Are you alright, grandpa? Where did you fall? Are you hurt?"
"Yes, sir, where do you live?"
When you're out and about, you should help others if you can. In this situation, Jiang Jianguo and Xue He didn't think much about it. Besides, there was still half an hour before class, and they wanted to set a good example for Nannan.
"Oh dear... I... I can't walk anymore. Could you please take me to the hospital?"
"this……"
Jiang Jianguo and Xue He looked at Nannan at the same time, and the child blinked innocently.
"Grandpa and Grandma, I can cross the road to school by myself. Please take Grandpa to the hospital."
"That won't do!" Xue He was the first to object. "We'll go together. How could your grandparents let you go alone? If your mother finds out, we'll be being irresponsible."
"Then what should we do?" The little girl, though small, was quite shrewd. She shrugged and looked at the old man. "Should we let Grandpa go to the hospital by himself?"
Upon hearing this, the old man started howling again.
"No, no, I'm in pain all over. If you're going to do me a favor, please take me to the hospital. You can bring the child with you."
