Liya looked at the three people chatting enthusiastically on the sofa and whispered, “Hey, let’s not talk about it anymore. I got scolded so badly.”
“Buddy, I can understand how you feel. While on the way here, I also got scolded during the entire journey. It was really tough!” Abdullah sympathetically remarked.
On the sofa, Dmitry and Archie exchanged glances, deliberately steering the conversation towards the gold mine.
“Mr. Zhou is truly outstanding. He quietly owns such a large gold mine.” Dmitry sighed, looking at Zhou Chao. Even Archie, on the side, cast his gaze upon Zhou Chao, curious about how he came to know about this gold mine.
“Haha, when I bought this ranch, it was simply chosen as a summer vacation spot. After all, the weather here by Lake Baikal is pleasant in the summer, a great place for vacationing, hunting, and fishing.
Believe it or not, the gold mine was discovered by one of my bodyguards. They were hunting deep in the forest and stumbled upon a basin containing gold. Later, a simple exploration by a survey team revealed it to be a massive gold mine.”
Upon hearing Zhou Chao’s explanation, Archie and Dmitry couldn’t help but think: “Damn, talk about luck!”
Before coming, Dmitry had thoroughly checked Zhou Chao’s ranch and the related procedures for the gold mine. Everything was seamless, all documents were in order, without any loopholes, otherwise, he wouldn’t have rushed over.
Dmitry also knew he couldn’t delay any longer; after all, it was most appropriate for him to resolve this matter as soon as possible.
“Mr. Zhou, I won’t beat around the bush. I’m here today for your gold mine. I’m sure you also understand the significance of this gold mine. I wonder, Mr. Zhou, what conditions would make you willing to sell a share of the gold mine.”
Archie chimed in from the side, “We’re all friends here. Mr. Zhou, just say what conditions you have.”
Zhou Chao hadn’t expected the two to get straight to the point. He thought they would beat around the bush before getting to the topic of the gold mine, leaving him momentarily unsure how to respond.
After a moment of thought, Zhou Chao looked at them and said, “I believe you both know the value of this gold mine. I wonder what price you are willing to pay for a share of it.” fr𝚎𝗲𝐰ebnov𝐞𝐥.𝐜o𝗺
The atmosphere instantly cooled, with neither of them speaking immediately. After a while, Dmitry spoke up, “I wonder how much of the gold mine Mr. Zhou is willing to relinquish.”
Zhou Chao’s eyes flickered with a hint of amusement at Dmitry’s words. “If both of you can afford it, I don’t mind splitting the shares of this gold mine among the three of us.”
Archie glanced at Dmitry, then back at Zhou Chao before saying, “Why don’t we schedule a time to sit down and discuss this properly? What do you think?”
“I have no problem with that. I’m just not sure what Mr. Dmitry thinks of this proposal.”
After pondering for a moment, Dmitry also realized that today could only be resolved in this hasty manner, so he nodded in agreement.
“Alright, how about the day after tomorrow?”
“No problem!” Zhou Chao and Archie both agreed in unison.
After arranging the time, Dmitry and Archie didn’t linger any longer, both wanting to go back and plan carefully to avoid making any mistakes.
After seeing them off at the villa, Zhou Chao watched them drive away before turning back inside. He wasn’t worried about them colluding privately; after all, the decision-making power rested in his hands.
Just the thought of negotiating with these two old foxes made Zhou Chao’s head buzz. After all, these people were experts in verbal sparring.
“It seems I’ll have to find someone else to handle it.. If I negotiate myself, they might just team up against me!”
