Sun Changfeng and Yuan Zhongqing's negotiation went smoothly.
In fact, it had to go smoothly. Sun Changfeng was like an idiot. His offer was so good that it was scary. How could Yuan Zhongqing not agree?
After discussing business matters, Sun Changfeng did not stay for long. He smiled at Li Dong and said, "Mr. Li, I will go back first. You can send the goods over in the afternoon."
Li Dong nodded and said, "Okay, we will send it over in the afternoon."
Seeing that Sun Changfeng was about to leave, Yuan Zhongqing quickly said, "Manager Sun, stay for a meal. Or we can go to a hotel. Aren't you looking down on me by discussing business without eating? "
Sun Changfeng quickly said politely, "Director Yuan, next time, let's have a meal together next time. I really can't today. The store is still busy. Besides, I have to receive the goods in the afternoon. I have to go back and prepare. After all, it is a matter of hundreds of thousands! "
When Sun Changfeng mentioned the last few hundred thousand, he slightly emphasized his tone.
He was not reminding Yuan Zhongqing, but Li Dong.
This deal was negotiated by you. It had nothing to do with Sun Changfeng. If you don't make a call later, Sun Changfeng has no right to transfer hundreds of thousands of funds to buy a batch of fur that is worth less than 100 thousand.
Moreover, Sun Changfeng faintly felt that Li Dong was a little silly. It was too degrading to do such a thing.
Yuan Zhongqing and the rest were not idiots. If they did not realize it now, would they not realize it in the future?
Now that this happened, they might as well just give the money. What's the point of going through so much trouble?
Li Dong glanced at him. This guy is really dawdling.
Sun Changfeng understood the look in his eyes and felt somewhat helpless. He bid farewell to the Yuan couple before leaving the house.
Before Li Dong thought of giving the money away, the Yuan couple followed behind and sent Sun Changfeng downstairs.
If not for Sun Changfeng's persuasion, the couple would have continued to send the money away.
After Sun Changfeng walked far away, Yuan Zhongqing and his mother woke up from a dream. The two looked at each other. Then, Yuan Zhongqing held Li Dong's hand and said gratefully, "Little Li, I can't thank you enough! You've helped me a lot today. I don't even know where to start expressing my gratitude! "
Mother Yuan also said excitedly, "Yes, Little Li, thank you so much!"
The couple's words of gratitude were endless. Li Dong smiled and dealt with them for a while. Then, he looked at the time and said, "Uncle Yuan, Auntie, since the matter is settled, I'll leave first."
"Leave? Xiao Li, how can you leave now? Xiao Xue will be back soon. Let's have lunch together. "
"Yes, Xiao Xue will be here soon. Xiao Li, you can't leave at noon."
Li Dong said with a smile, "Uncle and Auntie, I really have something to deal with. I'll come again next time. Also, you'd better not tell Yuan Xue about what happened today. I'm afraid she'll blame me for being nosy. I think it's better to wait until the deal is done in the afternoon. You can tell Yuan Xue after you get the money. What do you think? "
The couple didn't understand and were also a little suspicious. What did he mean by not telling their daughter?
Seeing that the two didn't say anything, Li Dong said with a smile, "Actually, I'm just saying. After all, I haven't gotten the money. If I tell her now and something happens and the deal goes south, wouldn't I be happy for nothing?"
"Something goes south?" Yuan Zhongqing said with a pale face.
Seeing his nervous face, Li Dong quickly said with a smile, "I'm just saying. Uncle, don't misunderstand me. I'm just considering that Yuan Xue is a top student in the US. I'm afraid she won't like Far away. If she doesn't agree, the deal will go south. At that time, I won't be able to say anything in front of Manager Sun, right? "
"Won't like it? How can that be?"
Yuan Zhongqing quickly said, "No, our Xiao Xue isn't that kind of person. Xiao Li, don't misunderstand. Our Xiao Xue is very obedient … "
After listening to his explanation, Li Dong said helplessly, "Then it's up to you. I'm just saying. It doesn't matter if I tell her or not. Actually, I … "
Li Dong said awkwardly, "Actually, I just wanted to wait for your deal to be successful before giving Yuan Xue a surprise. Now that the deal isn't done, I'm a little embarrassed if you tell her. Uncle, it's best if you don't tell her that I was here. What do you think? "
"This …"
The couple looked at each other. What was this guy trying to do?
Give his daughter a surprise?
Could it be that this guy was going to pursue their daughter?
The couple was speechless for a while. Seeing that his explanation was getting more and more confusing, Li Dong said gloomily, "Uncle, Auntie, I'll leave first. I'll wait for you at the supermarket in the afternoon."
After saying that, Li Dong left in a hurry.
Yuan Zhongqing and his wife didn't move. From afar, they saw Li Dong get into a car. After the car left, Yuan Zhongqing was confused and asked, "What's going on? Xiao Xue's mother, do you understand? "
Yuan Zhongqing's mother also didn't understand, but she still said in a low voice, "Do you think … Xiao Li took a fancy to our Xiao Xue and came to help when he found out that our family was in trouble? Otherwise, how could there be such a coincidence? "
The couple were not fools. Previously, they were blinded by the situation and were a little muddle-headed.
But now that Li Dong and his men had left, the couple seemed to have come back to their senses.
Today's incident was too bizarre. Business was so easy to talk about.
No, it wasn't business. The other party seemed to be in a hurry to give them money. The more they thought about it, the more they felt that something was wrong.
After a while, Yuan Zhongqing said, "Then should we tell Xiao Xue?"
Yuan Zhongqing's mother hesitated for a while, then finally gritted her teeth and said, "Why don't we not tell her first? If Xiao Xue isn't willing, then the business is over. "
Yuan Zhongqing frowned and said, "But we owe him such a big favor. If we don't tell Xiao Xue, in the future …"
"In the future what? Xiao Li didn't say it directly. Favors are favors. Does Xiao Xue have to talk to him? Besides, Xiao Li isn't bad … "
Yuan Zhongqing said unhappily, "You're selling your daughter!"
Yuan Zhongqing's mother said angrily, "What do you mean? I'm doing this for this family, for Xiao Xue! If we can sell this batch of fur hides and get back more than three hundred thousand, then the debt will be more or less repaid. The remaining two hundred thousand is owed to the family, so it won't be a problem. If we don't have this money, can Xiao Xue settle down? These few days, she has lost a lot of weight. Isn't it because you fell sick at this time? I think you're trying to avoid it. The burden is all on Xiao Xue's shoulders. How can I be at ease? Now that there's a chance, and besides, it's not certain if it's what we think it is. Are we not going to do the business? "
Yuan Zhongqing's face changed from her rebuke. After a while, he said in a muffled voice, "Then we won't say it?"
"Not now. We'll talk about it after we get the money in the afternoon."
"What if it's a scammer?"
"Scammer? What can he scam? This time, I've made up my mind. Pay up and get the goods. If there's no money, he won't give us the goods. How can he scam us? If he wants us to pay, do we have the money to pay? As for the goods, we'll only trade at the supermarket. If you're really worried, you can ask two more people to come with you. Do you think he'll harm us? "
"That's true."
Yuan Zhongqing thought about it carefully. It seemed that there was no problem. Finally, he sighed and said, "Then let's not talk about it. Sigh, it's all my fault … "
Just as he was feeling sorry for himself, Yuan Xue walked over with a bag of fruits in her hand.
Yuan Xue still had some doubts on her face. Seeing her parents standing downstairs, she asked, "Dad, mom, didn't we have a guest? Why are you here? "
"The guest left."
"Left? Who came? "
"A friend. You don't know him."
Yuan Xue said with some doubts, "Really?"
Yuan Xue said with some doubts, "Mom, Dad, did you see the Audi at the entrance of our community? Why do I feel that it looks familiar? "
"Audi?"
Yuan Zhongqing vaguely knew that it was Li Dong's car. But when he thought of his wife's words and saw his daughter's tired face, he coughed and said, "Really? I didn't think much of it. Isn't Audi the same? What's so familiar about it? Let's not talk about it. Let's go upstairs. "
Although Yuan Xue felt a little strange, she didn't think too much about it. She nodded and said, "Then let's go back. If I knew that the guest had left, I wouldn't have bought the fruits. I spent tens of dollars. "
Hearing his daughter's words, Yuan Zhongqing's eyes turned sour and tears almost flowed out.
In the past, when his business was good, he was obedient to his daughter and doted on her. He never had to worry about money.
But now, his daughter had to spend tens of dollars every time she bought fruits.
Yuan Zhongqing's mother, who was beside him, also looked sad. The poor raised their son and the rich raised their daughter. They only had one daughter, and they doted on her to the bone.
Now, her daughter had delayed her studies for the sake of the family. She was so busy that she felt dizzy. The old couple was really too useless.
The more she thought about it, the more Mother Yuan felt that she couldn't tell her daughter about Li Dong.
She understood her daughter's character. If she knew that her classmate came over to help and bought their fur at a price several times higher than the market price, her daughter would definitely not agree.
If it was in the past, Yuan Zhongqing's mother wouldn't want to earn this money either.
But now, Yuan Zhongqing's mother gritted her teeth. If they earned it, then so be it. Who asked them to be so useless?
Moreover, she comforted herself in her heart. Maybe it was true. Faraway Supermarket was a big supermarket. They were rich, so why wouldn't they be willing to pay a high price?
Yuan Xue also saw the change in the couple's expressions.
Seeing that her unintentional words had caused their expressions to change, Yuan Xue looked apologetic. She then said, "Dad, Mom, don't worry. I'll settle this matter soon. Recently, business has been good. Also, the father of a classmate of mine heard about my matter and is willing to lend us a few hundred thousand dollars. We can put this matter aside for now. "
Yuan Zhongqing's parents were stunned when they heard that.
Her classmate's father was willing to lend her money?
Why did this scene seem so familiar? Also, Xiao Li came to help just now. This …
The couple didn't know what to say. They were stunned for a moment and didn't say anything.
Yuan Xue didn't explain further. Her right hand gently pinched the necklace in front of her chest. She was hesitant at first, but then she became determined.
Originally, she didn't think about selling the necklace. But now that her parents were in such a state and the debt collectors were chasing them all the way to Dongping, if the two shops in Dongping were to be ruined, her parents would be furious.
At worst, she could just pawn the necklace. After all, even if the price of a diamond necklace wasn't high, she could still raise a few hundred thousand dollars.
She could just redeem it when she earned some money in the future.
Although that was what she was thinking, Yuan Xue's eyes revealed a trace of unconcealable sadness.
Actually, this was all her wishful thinking. If the necklace was pawned, it definitely wouldn't be kept for long. Where would she get the money to redeem it?
No matter how capable she was, she was still a student.
A few hundred thousand dollars sounded simple. In fact, if it was that simple, she wouldn't be in such a difficult situation now.
This necklace had changed hands a few times.
Perhaps, this would be the last time.
If she pawned the necklace given by Li Dong, the fate between them would probably be completely broken.
Yuan Xue bit her lip and stopped thinking about it. She was afraid that she would regret this decision.
…
At noon, the Yuan family of three didn't have much to eat.
Yuan Zhongqing and his parents were thinking about the afternoon business, while Yuan Xue wanted to pawn the necklace as soon as possible to repay the debt.
Both of them had secrets in their hearts, so they didn't talk much at the dining table.
Usually, Yuan Xue or Yuan Zhongqing would definitely notice the abnormality in each other. But today, the three of them were immersed in their own world and ignored each other's abnormality.
