Chapter 570: Protecting Husband Xiaoqi (Part 2)
Simon raised his eyebrows in surprise again.
"Mr. Xi," he said, looking at Xi Jiu with a questioning look in his eyes, "given your status in China, it shouldn't be difficult for you to purchase the R7 from the official design institute."
"It's really not difficult." Xi Jiu said slowly, his big hands still on the little girl's soft hair, "But I want my baby to make money."
Ruan Qi submitted the drawings to the Huaguo Design Institute, which actually offered a share of the profits. However, the design institute was not a profit-making organization, so the share it could offer was still less than that of the wealthy Solomon.
Ruan Qi handed the R7 over to the design institute as a gesture of goodwill, but Xi Jiu didn't want her to lose too much of her personal interests.
He wanted the girl to earn more money.
"I have too many people under my command, so I need to purchase a large number of R7s. In addition, I also hope to establish a long-term cooperative relationship with Solomon. From now on, all the weapons used by my subordinates will be ordered from Solomon."
Xi Jiu spoke slowly, but his words surprised the other two people in the ward.
How many people does Xi Jiu have?
countless.
In addition to the Xi family, Q base and Eagle tribe that are exposed in the open, the hidden forces in Xi Jiu's hands that cannot be exposed are also so huge that it makes people's scalp tingle.
With so many forces and so many people, how many weapons are needed?
Countless.
This is a huge deal. Any arms manufacturer that can make this deal will wake up laughing in their dreams.
Of course Simon would not miss this opportunity.
He sat up from the bed with difficulty and was about to speak when Ruan Qi hurriedly grabbed Xi Jiu's hand.
"Jiujiu, you don't have to do this for me. Solomon's weapons are good, but they're quite expensive. Buying them in bulk will cost a lot of money. Would you mind thinking about it?"
Simon Austin: “?!”
Why is there a traitor here?!
Seeing Solomon's second boss foolishly pushing away such a big business, Simon's face turned even paler with anger.
He cursed fiercely in his heart, "Girls are too old to be kept at home," and said to Ruan Qi with gritted teeth, "Qisha, have you forgotten your identity? You are Solomon's boss!"
"I know." Ruan Qi turned her head with an innocent look on her face. "But I'm telling the truth. Solomon's weapons are indeed more expensive."
“…” Simon was so angry that he fell backwards.
He leaned against the hospital bed, pointing at Ruan Qi with trembling fingers, feeling very disappointed. "How are you going to make money if you don't charge a high price? You're going to give away such a big deal?!"
"Of course I want Jiujiu to cooperate with Solomon." Ruan Qi blinked and said slowly, "But your price is too high. I feel bad for Jiujiu spending so much money."
"But you are the one who earned this money! Don't you want to save more for your dowry?!" Simon was furious.
Ruan Qi: "My dowry is already big enough. And Jiujiu's money is mine, so of course I have to save some for him."
Simon: “…”
Boss Solomon is about to have a stroke because of this ungrateful second boss.
He pointed at her and said "you" for a long time, but couldn't say a word.
This guy is just pure love-brained! He doesn't even want money!
Simon was so angry that his face turned blue. He wanted to divide Solomon's property with Ruan Qi on the spot and break up with him.
Xi Jiu looked at the little girl who was eager to protect her husband, smiled happily, and raised her hand to pinch her soft earlobe.
"Baby," he bent down, his dark eyes looking at her intently, "I just want you to make my money."
Ruan Qi: "But Solomon's market price is very high..."
"It doesn't matter." Xi Jiu's thin lips curled slightly. "If it's a little more expensive, you can earn a little more. Just think of it as pocket money from me, okay?"
The girl didn't have high material needs. She only needed enough clothes and shoes to wear, and she didn't wear much jewelry. The only things she cared about were yogurt and ice cream, which she could buy in bulk for just a few hundred yuan.
So, after the two of them had been together for so long, Xi Jiu really had no way to spend money on Ruan Qi.
This made the big boss Xi, who had a huge amount of money, very depressed.
He rubbed the little girl's head: "Baby, I want to spend money on you."
The man's tone was sincere, yet a little humble and aggrieved.
Ruan Qi, who was eager to protect her husband, couldn't stand it anymore.
Isn't it just about spending money?
Spend! Spend as much as you want!
As long as Jiujiu is happy!
Ruan Xiaoqi, who had no principles, immediately changed his tone: "Jiujiu, don't be upset. If you want to spend money, just spend it. I'll let Simon discuss cooperation with you. From now on, any weapons you want can be ordered from Solomon."
After she finished speaking, she was still a little worried and looked up to warn Simon: "Be cheaper! Don't take advantage of Jiujiu!"
Simon: “…”
He couldn't stand it any longer and rolled his eyes twice.
Once Qi Sha is married off, she is like spilled water. Solomon’s second-in-command can no longer be kept.
…
In the end, Xi Jiu and Simon reached a cooperation agreement at a price 30% lower than the market price.
Although there was a 30% discount, the quantity of weapons ordered by Xi Jiu was very large, so Solomon could be said to have made a huge profit.
Simon looked at the electronic contract he had just signed and felt so happy that even his wound didn't hurt much anymore.
Satisfied, he locked his iPad and looked up at Xi Jiu and said, "After the order is placed, the goods will be shipped within two months. The balance will be paid then."
Xi Jiu nodded slightly and responded.
Seeing that the two had finished discussing their cooperation, Ruan Qi said to Simon, "Kerry has returned to Solomon. He's at the company, so you don't have to worry. On the other hand, over at BC Manufacturing, the Thomson people have been coming to Solomon these past few days, making a fuss and asking you to give them an explanation."
Hearing this, Simon sneered, "What explanation? Thomson wanted to kill me, and I haven't asked him for an explanation yet. Tell Kerry that if the BC-made people come again, just kick them out. Don't give them face."
Ruan Qi nodded.
Almost everything that needed to be explained had been explained, and the laboratory still needed to develop an antidote, so Ruan Qi stood up with the help of a chair.
"Simon, rest and recover. I still have to go to the lab. I'll be leaving now."
…
Xi Jiu carried Ruan Qi out of the ward.
After returning to the laboratory, Ruan Qi thought for a moment and took out his cell phone from his pocket.
Her previous phone had been broken during the gunfight the night before, so her current one was a new one. Ruan Qi logged into her ID, and her previous phone's address book was synced to her new one.
She found a number in her address book and dialed it.
The phone beeped twice and was quickly picked up.
An old but gentle voice sounded on the phone: "Miss Qi Sha, is that you?"
"It's me." Ruan Qi held the phone, her lips curled slightly, "Mr. Davis, good afternoon."
Old Duke Davis on the other end of the phone breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the little girl's voice.
"That's great! I knew good fortune would come to those who are lucky. Miss Qi Sha will be fine. By the way, how is Mr. Austin? I heard about what happened the night before and was very worried about you."
The assassination of Solomon's boss on Third Avenue had spread throughout the circle since the night before.
Jennifer, the wife of the old Duke Davis, was a person with a quick temper. After learning that the little girl she had saved was in danger, she kicked her husband out of bed at night, swept him out of the house with a broom, and asked him to go help Ruan Qi.
So, poor old Duke Davis looked for Ruan Qi for two days and slept in the basement for two days.
