"The Xuanfeng Alliance is indeed very far away from the White City Alliance, but they aren't that far from Qinling City. At most, they are slightly further away from Yungui City than the White City Alliance is," City Lord Zhou said.
"How much is the Xuanfeng Alliance offering?" City Lord Bai probed.
He knew that if it was the Xuanfeng Alliance, then the price would definitely be very terrifying. He didn't know if he could still bear this price!
"1.5 billion!" City Lord Zhou said.
"1.5 billion!!!" City Lord Bai took a few deep breaths. Although he knew that the offer would be very high, it had already exceeded the White City Alliance's entire profit.
Even if they added the three hundred million that they had already earned, they would only be able to match the Xuanfeng Alliance's offer.
Such a price was absolutely impossible for the White City Alliance.
Even if it was only a billion, it was already a critical point for the White City Alliance.
Although they could still work together, the profit they could make was already very low.
If the offer exceeded a billion, it would be very difficult for them to make any more profit.
The White City Alliance basically had no advantage over the Xuanfeng Alliance at a price of 1.5 billion.
"City Lord Zhou, what does Chief Cheng think of the Xuanfeng Alliance now?" City Lord Bai asked expectantly.
He could only hope that Chief Cheng would not be obsessed with money. Otherwise, the White City Alliance would definitely lose the competition.
However, the White City Alliance had only offered six hundred million, while the other party had offered nine hundred million more than them.
He was afraid that Chief Cheng did not care about money at all. Who would not care about such a large sum of money?
Therefore, even he himself had lost all confidence at this moment!
"Don't worry, City Lord Bai. Didn't I already tell you? Our Chief hasn't decided who to work with yet.
Therefore, it's not like you don't have a chance. Perhaps our Chief will be willing to continue working with you? "City Lord Zhou said with a smile.
"But the Xuanfeng Alliance has already offered a price of 1.5 billion. Why would Chief Cheng choose the White City Alliance?" City Lord Bai said in despair.
"It's hard to say!"
"The Profound Wind Alliance has a total of more than 50 cities, including seven first-class cities. Our White City Alliance can't compare with them in terms of wealth.
Unless Patriarch Cheng is willing to continue cooperating with us on the basis of our one year of cooperation, the White City Alliance will not be able to do so.
Otherwise, our White City Alliance would never be able to compete with the Xuanfeng Alliance! "Even Governor Bai himself felt that it was impossible for him to compete with such a powerful opponent.
"How about this, City Lord Bai, do you think you can still increase the price?" City Lord Zhou asked.
"1.5 billion? That's impossible. It's impossible for us to make a profit of 1.5 billion a year.
Unless our White City Alliance has 50 cities like the Xuanfeng Alliance, we won't be able to afford it! "Governor Bai shook his head.
"What's the minimum bid, City Lord Bai? Perhaps I can help City Lord Bai discuss this with our Family Lord, "City Lord Zhou said.
"This … I can't offer more than one billion!" Governor Bai gritted his teeth and said after some thought.
If the bid was too low, even if the Cheng Family did not hand the cooperation over to the Xuanfeng Alliance, they would hand it over to another alliance.
After all, the other alliances had also offered one billion. No matter what, the White City Alliance could not possibly offer a lower price than the other alliances. They had to at least reach a similar price!
However, if the Cheng Family really chose to cooperate with the White City Alliance, their profits would be significantly reduced.
However, if the cooperation was successful, even if the profits were lesser, it would still be better than before!
Governor Bai seemed to have calmed down at the thought of this!
"If City Lord Bai is willing to offer one billion, I think we still stand a good chance," City Lord Zhou said.
"Are you confident, City Lord Zhou?" Governor Bai asked.
"I can't say for sure. After all, it's up to our Family Lord to decide. Moreover, the Xuanfeng Alliance is closer to Qinling City. The City Lord of Qinling City would definitely want the Xuanfeng Alliance to cooperate with the Cheng Family, which would be more beneficial to them.
Therefore, it might be difficult for City Lord Bai to secure the cooperation, but it's not impossible! "Governor Zhou explained.
"City Lord Zhou, if you can convince the Cheng Family Lord to give the White City Alliance more missions, I'm willing to offer one billion and two billion. What do you think?" Governor Bai offered after some thought.
Given the current situation, it would be impossible for him to offer one billion and two billion.
However, if the Cheng Family was willing to provide them with more missions, especially those with high rewards, they would definitely be able to earn more.
Even if they offered another two billion, it would not be a problem.
"One billion and two billion?" Governor Zhou frowned.
"City Lord Zhou, one billion and two billion is not a small amount. Two billion is a very high price for the White City Alliance. I hope you can help us!" Governor Bai pleaded.
Indeed, one billion and two billion was a lot.
Even if the Cheng Family were to provide them with more missions, they would not need a large number of people to earn another two billion.
Therefore, if they were to offer more missions and the situation did not turn out well, they would be at a loss.
"Although I know that City Lord Bai is being very sincere, you should know that such a high price is only possible if there are more missions.
It would be better if the Xuanfeng Alliance didn't offer more missions. If that's the case, I don't think our Family Lord will agree to it! "Governor Zhou said.
"That will depend on what kind of missions the Cheng Family is willing to give us. How about this, if the Cheng Family can give us a mission that is as big as your Cheng Family's, and the kind with especially generous rewards, I can increase the price by another 100 million! What do you think? "Governor Bai said through gritted teeth.
He was going all out for this cooperation.
One had to know that the Cheng family's most attractive missions were those with extremely generous rewards. That would attract a lot of people.
As long as there were such missions, the White City Alliance would definitely attract more people. Moreover, these people would definitely be people with high social status.
In that case, they would be able to earn a lot of money!
"Alright! I know that City Lord Bai has tried his best and I will try my best to explain your situation to the Family Lord.
I can't guarantee that it will work, but one billion and three billion is indeed a very high price.
Even if it's not as good as the Xuanfeng Alliance, it's still a good chance! "Governor Zhou replied readily.
