John was called into the reception room. After he came in, he said apologetically, "Sorry, I thought you wanted to talk alone."
Gao Qi forced a smile, then he said to John, "Mr. Barak, let's talk about a deal."
John stared blankly for a moment, then he asked with interest, "What kind of deal?"
"A deal that can make you a lot of money, a lot of money."
John was very surprised, "Oh? I'm very interested. "
Gao Qi thought for a moment, then he looked at Huang Fei and whispered, "Fei Ge, I'll tell you."
Huang Fei waved his hand and said, "I don't know what you're going to say. You didn't tell me in advance, but I still believe you. Go ahead."
Gao Qi said indifferently, "Mr. Barak, I want to give you a big deal, but I want technology as a shareholder. Is that what you mean?"
"Of course I can accept technology as a shareholder. If you want to rely on Mr. Huang's ability to talk business with me, I welcome it."
"No, not Fei Ge, it's me."
Pointing to his nose, Gao Qi said with a firm face, "I'll give you a piece of information. It's free, but I want to invest with Fei Ge's technology. The two of us will take 20%."
John nodded and said, "Okay, I'll listen first."
Gao Qi whispered, "We just reached a deal with Bernhard, but I insist on keeping the right to spread this information. I know that Bernhard is not a good partner, but you are."
John smiled and said, "No need to tell stories, don't keep me in suspense. Please tell me your information, and then tell me about the investment."
Gao Qi took a deep breath, then he took out an energy core from his pocket and said, "You know what this is, right?"
"I know, it's an energy core."
Huang Fei's eyes widened. Gao Qi said with an embarrassed face, "I didn't steal it, it's my … leftover, I kept it."
Gao Qi felt that it was necessary to explain, but Huang Fei said with an angry face, "Just this one?"
"Yes, just this one."
Huang Fei said angrily, "Why don't you … keep a few more, are you stupid!"
John frowned, then he said to Gao Qi, "Please continue."
Gao Qi coughed and said, "Do you know the value of an energy core?"
John shrugged and said with a smile, "It has research value, but only research value. So far, no one has found out how to use an energy core, but it's still precious because it's really beautiful. It's usually used as a gem, and because it's very difficult to obtain, the price is extremely high."
Gao Qi sighed, then he pointed to the detector hanging on the door of the reception room and said, "Look at your detector."
John looked back and said, "What's wrong?"
"Look at me again."
When John looked at Gao Qi, Gao Qi opened his right hand, and then a ball of fire appeared in his palm.
John was shocked, he immediately stood up and looked at the detector again, then he said in horror, "Why didn't the detector respond?"
Gao Qi said helplessly, "I don't know, Bernhard doesn't know either. I did a lot of experiments with him, the details are confidential, but I can release abilities through an energy core. This is the information I'll give you for free."
John was stunned for a while, then he said with a vigilant face, "Is this a magic trick? You're not trying to cheat me with a magic trick, are you? "
"I can use an energy core to release abilities, it's not a magic trick, I just can't show the real power, it will destroy your spaceship. Mr. Barak, you must know what this means after seeing my ability."
John sat back on the sofa nervously, he said in a low voice, "It means too many things. First of all, the energy core can be used as an energy source. Second, when you use the energy core as an energy source, your ability won't be detected. Also, no matter if your ability is unique or replicable, as long as you know that the energy core can be used and not purely for decoration, the price will skyrocket. I understand …"
Gao Qi said in a low voice, "That's right, as long as you stockpile a batch of energy cores now, you can make a lot of money when the time comes. How about it, I'll take 20% of the shares. It's not too much, right?"
John swallowed, he thought for a long time.
Gao Qi said in a low voice, "You pay for the energy cores, and when you think it's enough, I'll show you my ability. When the price rises, we'll sell it. How about it?"
John looked at Gao Qi and said, "Why don't you keep it a secret?"
"I need the energy cores, but even if Bernhard didn't tell me the secret, I still can't afford the energy cores. Since Bernhard already knows, and the price of the energy cores will rise sooner or later, I might as well make a lot of money while I have the upper hand. I can earn all the energy cores I need in the future in one go!"
John nodded and said in a low voice, "That's a smart approach, because Bernhard will definitely buy a lot. The market for energy cores is actually very small. As long as he buys a lot, it will definitely cause the price to fluctuate. Even if the price rises slightly, it will cause people to be reluctant to sell."
Huang Fei finally said, "How many times do you think the price will rise once the news comes out?"
John said indifferently, "At least ten times! Although the price of energy cores is already very expensive now, you should know that people thirst for power. If energy cores have investment value, I don't even dare to imagine how high the price will rise. Oh, I know what to do to maximize the benefits! "
Gao Qi immediately said, "What do you want to do?"
John said, "Let's talk to him about the shares first. You just gave me a piece of information. No matter what, you can't take 20% of the technology shares."
Gao Qi smiled and said, "That's right, so I gave the information for free. But if I don't personally demonstrate the use of the energy cores, how can the price skyrocket? So I'm the core of this business opportunity. I'm the promoter, I'm the key! "
John was silent. Gao Qi smiled and said, "I only want 20%. You can't think that I'm greedy, right?"
Huang Fei frowned and said, "30% is reasonable."
"Okay, 20%!"
John quickly made the decision. He said to Gao Qi very seriously, "When we get off the spaceship, demonstrate your ability to me. If I confirm that you're not doing magic, then we have to act immediately. Bernhard won't wait for too long. We must set up the plan before he does."
Gao Qi nodded and said, "Okay, trust me. I won't let you down. How much do you plan to invest?"
John said indifferently, "I can immediately take out 800,000 grams of gold. If I pawn my spaceship, I can get 3 to 5 million grams of gold. I plan to get 6 million grams!"
Huang Fei looked at Gao Qi and whispered, "How much is 6 million grams?"
Gao Qi silently calculated and said, "Six tons!"
Huang Fei took a deep breath. When he looked at John again, his eyes were full of admiration.
John continued, "Bernhard bought two Holy Beast energy cores. I bought one of them for him. It cost about a ton of gold. Now, Bernhard will definitely buy energy cores at a high price. He will definitely snatch all the Holy Beast energy cores that can be sold on the market. We can't compete with him."
Gao Qi and Huang Fei remained silent. In front of the real boss, it was better not to expose their knowledge.
John stood up and paced back and forth. "If we compete with Bernhard, we won't get any benefits other than messing up the market. He can buy a Holy Beast energy core with 10 tons of gold. He has the strength and courage to do so."
Gao Qi whispered, "What if we hurry up and buy a few now?"
John shook his head and said, "That's going against him. Trust me, don't do that. We can make money through the energy core business, but we can't go against Bernhard. So, we have to give up on buying Holy Beast energy cores. Although we can sell them to Bernhard and make a lot of money, we can't do that."
After pacing back and forth a few steps, John said with a calm face, "If we know the information in advance, we'll have the upper hand. But since we can't compete with Bernhard, we can only buy less conspicuous and expensive energy cores. According to the average price of 1 kilogram of gold, we can buy 6,000 energy cores …"
After saying that, John swallowed his saliva and smiled bitterly. "Six thousand, there's not that many in the entire market …"
Huang Fei said, "That's right! How can there be so many energy cores? How are we going to make money then? "
John shook his finger and said, "First, we'll buy as many as we can. We'll seize the middle and low-end resources and let Bernhard have the high-end resources. After that, we'll start from the source of the energy cores!"
Gao Qi couldn't help but ask, "How?"
John said with a serious face, "Earn the hard-earned money. I'll invest and form a professional team to hunt exotic beasts. If energy cores are a kind of mineral resource, then we'll be miners!"
Huang Fei couldn't help but say, "Miners? That's fine. "
John said with a ferocious face, "By the time people realize that energy cores can make a lot of money, we'll have already killed all the exotic beasts that are easy to hunt. As long as this secret can be kept for a year, I'll be able to build a professional team with scale, strength, and experience. By the time others decide to enter this industry, I'll already have an absolute advantage. This isn't a short-term business, it's a long-term business. It's an industry!"
Gao Qi and Huang Fei looked at each other and understood the meaning in each other's eyes.
As expected, they weren't professionals when it came to doing business.
Hardedef clapped his hands and laughed. "Control the source of energy cores, not hoarding them. Bernhard is the buyer, and we are the seller. This is a cooperative relationship, not a competitive relationship. Once we have hunted enough energy cores, hehe …" Hardedef laughed loudly. "That's right," he said loudly.
Huang Fei couldn't help but say, "We'll be rich!"
John just smiled, but Gao Qi said in a low voice, "Not only will we be rich, but the world will change. Mr. Barak, you're thinking too much. I don't dare to ask for twenty percent of the shares anymore."
Huang Fei looked at Gao Qi in disbelief. Then, just as he was about to scold him, John said in surprise, "Your … parents are businessmen?"
Gao Qi shook his head.
John frowned and said, "Don't worry too much. I'm very committed to the contract."
Gao Qi still shook his head and said in a low voice, "No, I don't believe in the contract. I only believe in the law of the jungle. I'm still young and don't want to die early."
John thought for a moment, then he said seriously, "Then, until the day your secret is revealed, I'll give you twenty percent of the shares. After that, you won't have any shares. What do you think?"
Gao Qi said in a low voice, "That's still a bit much. How about … a fixed amount of one million grams of gold?"
John didn't say anything. He just stared at Gao Qi and stared at him.
Gao Qi carefully said, "I'm not greedy. I thought you'd just take out some gold and hoard some energy cores. That way, I'll get a few hundred thousand. But I didn't expect you to be so ambitious. The business you're talking about is worth tens of millions or even hundreds of millions. I don't dare to get involved because I think that if you don't kill me with so many shares, you'll be too … stupid."
Huang Fei's expression finally eased. He helplessly sighed and said, "That's right. If it were me … Yes, I'd definitely do it."
John sighed again, then he smiled and said, "I really didn't expect you to be so calm. I've seen a lot of young people, and I've also seen a lot of rational people. But it's the first time I've seen someone so smart and rational at such a young age."
After seriously praising Gao Qi, John said in a deep voice, "I can't give you one million gold first because I need to invest the funds into production. But I can guarantee that you'll get one million grams of gold. I'll give it to you when the secret is revealed. As for the shares, we'll talk about it later. What do you think?"
Gao Qi thought for a moment and said, "That's good. That's good."
One can be greedy, but one can't be too greedy.
One has to understand the principle of eating as much as one can eat, or one will die from overeating.
If John was serious, and he really wanted to put everything he had into the energy core business, then the more benefits he gave, the more evil intentions he had. Because if he really controlled the source of the energy core, he had too many ways to swallow Gao Qi's shares. He might not even need to pay a single gram of gold.
Gao Qi's value was that he could prove the value of the energy core. And after he proved it, unless he had enough power to protect himself and his wealth, John would reveal his true intentions.
Therefore, John was definitely not a kind person. He easily agreed to Gao Qi's conditions. It could only be said that he didn't have good intentions. He had already planned to take advantage of Gao Qi.
After confirming that Gao Qi wasn't a greedy person, John decided to give Gao Qi the respect he deserved. The respect he deserved for a cautious and smart person.
John walked in front of Gao Qi and extended his hand.
Gao Qi stood up and shook John's hand. Then, John said calmly, "After we get off the spaceship, show me your ability. As long as it's not magic, let's sign a contract. I'll submit the contract to the Bounty Hunter Guild as a guarantee so that you can rest assured of the safety of your funds and your own safety. I'll pay for the guarantee."
Gao Qi said sincerely, "Thank you, I promise I won't let you down."
John let go of Gao Qi's hand and smiled. "Bernhard must have wanted to sign a confidentiality agreement with you, but you definitely didn't sign it."
Gao Qi said without hesitation, "Yes, although Bernhard is the richest man in the world, I think you're a better partner because you're a businessman, and Mr. Poulenc … is a scientist."
John laughed, and then he said with relief, "Smart choice! I'm a businessman who pursues profits, but at least I'm not crazy. The fact that you can see this clearly shows that you're a smart guy. God, I really admire you more and more. "
