Chapter 108 Negotiation failed
Jiang Siyi looked directly into Ji Xun's eyes, because if ordinary people lied, their micro-expressions would change to some extent.
There are nearly fifty prefecture-level cities at the same level as Yushan City under Datang Mansion, and among these nearly fifty prefecture-level cities, the comprehensive strength of Yushan City is only at the mid-range level. Qianshan Group itself is far stronger than Jiang, if they want to enter the Tang Dynasty, they can choose a platform with a higher starting point and a more powerful partner.
Regarding this issue, Jiang Siyi asked Ji Xun on the night of the auction, but he was fooled by Ji Xun at the time. The reason he used at the time was not wrong, because the Liang family lost its extraordinary power and was destined to give up its position as overlord. This It is indeed an excellent opportunity for Qianshan Group to enter Yushan.
So when Ji Xun came up with this reason, neither Jiang Siyi nor Gu Ming looked into it deeply, but when they thought about it afterwards, they found something worthy of scrutiny.
Although it is indeed the most suitable opportunity to cooperate with the Jiang family to enter Yushan at this stage, the problem is that with the strength of Qianshan Group, if you want to gain a foothold in Datang Mansion, there is no need to choose Yushan as a starting point, or even There is no need to cooperate with Mr. Jiang.
Ji Xun's approach seems to be a shortcut to laymen, but in the eyes of those who are truly knowledgeable, it is somewhat of a waste of resources.
But Ji Xun seemed to have expected that Jiang Siyi would raise this question again. He picked up the tea cup and answered without too much thinking: "I completely understand Miss Jiang's concerns. To be honest, Qianshan Group can indeed have more solutions." A good choice. The reason why I chose Yushan as the starting point is mostly due to my personal reasons.”
"I'd like to know, if that's convenient."
"The ancestors of the Ji family were from Yushan. Due to the turmoil, the Ji family left Yushan. However, the ancestors left their last words and hoped that future generations could return to Yushan to settle down and start a family if they have the opportunity."
"It's rare to find someone who misses the past like Mr. Ji."
"Thank you, Miss Jiang. I wonder if Miss Jiang has any other opinions on the plan I provided?"
"We have also made a plan with specific details, and Mr. Ji can take a look at it." Jiang Siyi also took out a plan and handed it to Ji Xun, and then drank tea with Gu Ming and waited for Ji Xun's reply.
Gu Ming discovered that Ji Xun's speed of flipping the paper had always maintained the same time frequency, but on one of the pages, he stayed for three seconds longer.
"Ms. Jiang, I have no objection to the other terms. However, I am sorry that you proposed not to announce the transportation channel. In the transportation industry, if the downstream channels cannot be controlled, then many of the group's decisions may be difficult to implement. ”
Gu Ming listened to the exchange between the two and knew that the negotiation had reached the core part.
The world of Kyushu is different from the earth where he lived in his previous life. The world of Kyushu is wider, and because of the existence of monsters, even in the three states of the human race, there are many dangers outside of cities.
There are strong men guarding the city, and ordinary monsters will not attack easily. However, in the wild outside the city, you may encounter danger at any time. Therefore, in the world of Kyushu, the transportation industry is an industry with a very high risk factor.
If you want to gain a foothold in this industry, in addition to having excellent strength, you must also rely on the resources of downstream channels. They may lack a lot of force value, but they have the safest routes and transportation methods. This is the core competitiveness of the transportation industry.
After all, no matter how powerful you are, it’s impossible to arrange for Chao Van Gogh to escort every order.
Qianshan Group's largest business is the transportation industry, so Ji Xun knows the rules here very well. If Jiang doesn't hand over the downstream channels, even if they inherit all Liang's previous business, they still cannot do without Jiang's constraints.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Ji. This clause was proposed by the elders in the family, and it is also Jiang's bottom line. All other clauses are easy to negotiate, but this one is not acceptable."
"It seems that Jiang is not sincere enough to cooperate with Qianshan Group."
"I have learned from Liang's mistakes, so I have to be more cautious. Mr. Ji, please understand."
"I can understand it, but from the standpoint of the group, I can't accept it." Ji Xun's tone suddenly became tougher, changing his previous gentle and elegant attitude. This change in attitude also showed Jiang Siyi his Determination and bottom line.
"Mr. Ji should understand that Jiang is fully capable of doing this on his own. Even without the cooperation of Qianshan Group, at most it will take more effort." Jiang Siyi said without giving in.
"Miss Jiang should also understand that Qianshan Group also has the ability to enter Yushan independently, but in this case, it will have to become Jiang's competitor, which is somewhat hurtful. This is not a situation I want to see."
"The Jiang family's ability to remain strong in the Tang Dynasty has never been based on harmony and wealth." Jiang Siyi also said uncharacteristically. The change in attitude between the two made Gu Ming feel some differences, but he knew that Jiang Siyi would never make a mistake.
And after knowing the truth about Jiang Siyi's last mission, Gu Ming even suspected that what Jiang Siyi did was not entirely to find partners for the Jiang Group.
"I really didn't expect that today's exchange would have such a result." Ji Xun said, "Although I am personally willing to promote cooperation with you, Qianshan Group also has its own ranking and bottom line. Qianshan Group The group will never be controlled by others.”
"It's a pity." Jiang Siyi said.
"Then I'll take my leave. Although we will each rely on our own abilities in the future, even if the deal fails, we still have friendship. I hope we can still be friends in the future." Ji Xun said, and left the private room without waiting for Jiang Siyi's answer. The moment he opened the door, Gu Ming saw the fierceness in Yu Haoyang's eyes.
"The talks broke down just like that?" Gu Ming asked after Ji Xun left, "You didn't plan to cooperate with Qianshan Group from the beginning, did you?"
Jiang Siyi nodded, did not deny, and asked Gu Ming with interest: "Did you guess it?"
"Minister Zhang told me the content of your last mission. Do you suspect that Ji Xun is related to another Black Alliance team?"
"The timing of his appearance is too coincidental." Jiang Siyi said, "As soon as Liang fell, Qianshan Group couldn't wait to take over Liang's business. I suspect their purpose is for the transportation route."
"Is the transportation route so important?"
"Very important, especially in Yushan." Jiang Siyi said, "You may not know that there is a superconducting metal vein on the outskirts of Yushan. If you control Yushan's transportation resources, it is easy to smuggle superconducting metals. This is why Liang Shangjun can smuggle."
"Since the transportation route is so important, Beidou is safe to hand it over to Jiang?"
"Of course I'm safe. Don't I belong to Beidou?" Jiang Siyi said, and Gu Ming understood something in an instant, with a hint of shock in his eyes.
