“Mr. Luo Feng claims he’s the owner of National Transport and is here to help you with your troubles,” the manager conveyed, his face etched with hope. Indeed, if Luo Feng could genuinely resolve the situation, it would be a significant relief for them. More importantly, since he had introduced Luo Feng, he might receive credit if the issue was indeed settled.
After hearing this, Eld remained silent for nearly ten minutes before finally speaking, “Well, in that case, let’s meet him. I am curious to see what solutions he might offer.”
Upon receiving Eld’s directive, the manager immediately approached Luo Feng. “Mr. Luo, our boss would like to see you.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLuo Feng followed him straight to Eld’s office. Inside, Luo Feng stood in front of Eld without uttering a word, and Eld remained equally silent. After all, Luo Feng had sought him out, and any premature words might reveal a
vulnerability. Eld was in a disadvantageous position and hoped to find a weak point in Luo Feng’s stance. Yes, he was ready to make concessions. He had taken a lot of business away from Luo Feng and knew that Luo Feng’s visit was not a genuine offer of assistance. He must have something Eld needed.
However, Luo Feng continued to remain silent, making Eldred increasingly restless. “What is it? Did you come to me just to stare?” Eldred finally asked.
Luo Feng replied with a smirk, “I’m indeed curious about you. I can’t understand what kind of person would willingly jump into an obvious trap.”
His sarcastic tone made Eld slightly uncomfortable, but he didn’t show it.
“You’re well aware of the current situation. So, I won’t waste time analyzing it. Just state your terms. What do you want in exchange for your help?”
Eldred was blunt, but Luo Feng played coy. “What I want, you might not have. Tell me what you can offer first.’
Luo Feng’s evasiveness made Eld uneasy. “I can’t give you everything I possess.”
Standing up, Eld decided to cut to the chase. “Let’s not beat around the bush. What do you want? Money? Market share? Or Mike, the one behind all this?” By mentioning Mike, Eld had already made a concession.
Luo Feng responded without hesitation, “I don’t need your market. We’re a new small firm and aren’t looking for big orders. And as for money, let’s just say that I’m not lacking. The person who bought the Sheep Head at the auction was me. So you know, I’m not short on cash.”
Having eliminated two of the three options, Eld grasped Luo Feng’s intent. “You know Mike’s influence is vast. I can’t afford to cross him, so I can’t offer you much assistance.”
Eld was clearly in a bind, caught between two powerful forces.
Luo Feng reassured him, “I don’t need your help against Mike. I just want you to do one thing: arrange a meeting with Mike for me.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt sounded simple, and Eld readily agreed. However, when he learned of the specific task Luo Feng referred to, Eld’s face darkened. “Mr. Luo, what you’re asking isn’t easy.”
“Why do you think I’m offering to help you out?” Luo Feng reminded him that this was a transaction, not a friendly favor.
Eldred hesitated for a while, unable to decide. Just then, his phone rang. It was a call from a long-time client. Faced with mounting pressure, Eld made up his mind. If these issues persisted, his decades-old company might soon go bankrupt.
“Fine! I’ll do it. But I need some time. As you know, what you’ve asked isn’t straightforward, and I need to make preparations.”
Eld had given in, but Luo Feng was patient. “Take your time, as long as your company can withstand the pressure.”
With that, Luo Feng exited the room. Although Eld had agreed to Luo Feng’s terms, he remained anxious. Assisting Luo Feng meant crossing Mike. If Luo Feng faced adversity, he could leave, but Eld would be defenseless against Mike.
Slumping in his chair, Eld exhaled deeply.. If he didn’t help Luo Feng now, who else would come to his rescue?
