"Mr. Lu, this is our latest partner. They've submitted a contract and want to provide us with a large batch of materials."
These things are in very high demand lately, so there's no need for us to keep paying extra to buy them!
As soon as Jiang Manyue finished speaking, Zhang Qi, who was standing to the side, was stunned. He looked at Lu Fan with a sense of confusion in his heart.
After all, if what he has is genuine, it means that the goods he already possesses are no longer of any use.
Moreover, Lu Fan's actions made him realize the implications of how the whole situation would unfold.
In an instant, he thought of those people and why they had suddenly changed their attitude. They had originally spent a lot of money to buy things from him, but now they were suddenly so easy to talk to, willing to let him take the goods for only a certain amount of money.
Thinking back on all these circumstances, he had long felt that something was wrong, and now this incident made him realize that this was a huge trap.
This trap had been waiting for him all along.
At this moment, Lu Fan slowly stood up and looked at the other party, but Zhang Qi looked like he might collapse at any moment.
This incident was a huge blow to him; he never expected that Lu Fan would be able to acquire so many resources in such a short time.
"Impossible, absolutely impossible. Even if you know a lot of people, how could so many resources appear out of thin air?"
Furthermore, Nanshan City has no personal grudge against you; why would they possibly give you resources?
Zhang Qi had been commissioned by the other party before, and he was well aware that Lu Fan was not well-connected there.
Given his current situation, it's easy to see from every event that what followed was completely unexpected.
Only then did he realize that it was all a trap, waiting for him to obediently jump in.
And seeing that the other party's actions were premeditated, everything they showed was for the sake of future developments.
"I'm sorry, it seems I already have what I need, and I've long since stopped liking the price you have."
Do you think my current acquisition price is too high? Now that we already have the goods, there's no need to ask for such a high price, is there?
Lu Fan smiled slightly and looked at the other party. At this moment, he was like a victor looking at the loser in front of him, and he felt a little melancholy.
He was well aware that everything he had done was a huge pitfall, and now he had jumped right in. Lu Fan was also aware of the value of the goods he was holding.
Selling it would be incredibly difficult, let alone making a profit at this price; it would be virtually impossible.
"Oh, I forgot about you, and your father. He would probably be happy to clean up your mess."
If I remember correctly, you only survived last time because of him. Otherwise, do you think you could have solved all this with your abilities?
Lu Fan stopped there, and Zhang Qi, standing to the side, broke out in a cold sweat. Although his father had helped him resolve the issue last time...
He was punished quite a bit after that, as his father was extremely strict in his upbringing.
His father had high hopes for him, and as such, he was often overly demanding of him. However, he was like a good-for-nothing, failing to meet his father's expectations in most aspects.
Now he wanted to make a name for himself in front of his father, but he never expected that this sudden turn of events would lead him into a huge trap.
Remembering that his father had already warned him not to continue challenging Lu Fan or getting involved in Lu Fan's affairs, he realized that his father was still alive.
His actions had once again violated his father's principles. Thinking about all this, he felt somewhat devastated, but he also knew very well that this matter could not be left unresolved.
"Mr. Lu, why don't you buy this at the original price, and I can give you a discount on some of the profit!"
Zhang Qi changed his usual demeanor, losing his original arrogance, and his eyes now held a hint of pleading as he looked at Lu Fan.
After all, it was simpler to ask Lu Fan for help than to ask his own father. He had just spoken to his father, and now he was going against his father's wishes. He didn't even dare to think about what kind of bloodshed would ensue if his father found out.
Besides, he had long lost the courage. After thinking it over, he looked at Lu Fan in front of him and could only accept it helplessly.
Lu Fan was slightly suspicious when he heard this, as he knew that the other party would normally have their own channels.
Even if he couldn't solve the immediate problem, he wouldn't be in such a sorry state. Besides, he knew the other party's father well, so at least he had a chance to break even.
However, since the other party has a request, his status has already changed.
"Oh dear, oh dear, what a pity. I was originally planning to do business with you, but I didn't expect this sudden change."
I've already obtained a lot of materials over there. If I take back everything you have as well, wouldn't that be too much?
With my current strength, I simply can't absorb it all; this would put a huge burden on me.
Lu Fan looked at the other person with a helpless expression, and shook his head. The decision he made made it seem as if he was really in dire straits and couldn't even come up with a little more money.
If Jiang Manyue hadn't known about the company's situation, she too would have been fooled by Lu Fan's acting skills.
He secretly thought to himself that this guy would be perfect as an actor; it would be a completely different level from his current career.
In particular, his performance skills would be far better than the public's opinion of him, but Zhang Qi doesn't think so right now.
He was well aware that he had been suppressing Lu Fan quite a bit during this period, and had done many things that were unfair to Lu Fan.
Now that things have come to this, he looked at Lu Fan and kept thinking about whether he could use other methods to process the materials in his hands.
"Mr. Lu, what do you suggest we do about this? I can't keep all the materials I have here. Returning them won't be that easy."
When he previously obtained the goods from other places, those people had already signed a contract with him stating that they would not pursue the return of these goods.
Moreover, there are no quality issues with this product, so there is absolutely no excuse.
All of this was arranged in advance by Lu Fan. As for the money earned by the others, it wasn't much; at most, they just broke even.
The goal, of course, was to get Zhang Qi to step forward and be willing to buy all the goods.
