Chapter 2246

Brock was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly asked, “Only 70%?”

“The 70% is theirs! We can only get 30% and we will have to do everything according to them!” Jasper snarled.

“Do everything according to them? Isn’t that like begging for food on your knees?” Brock slapped the table and roared.

Jasper and Brook were good at pretending, but the manager was obviously not easygoing either.

“I’m sorry, Mr. Laine. If you really say that, then you foreign businessmen who come to us to mine oil are indeed begging on your knees! Even so, so many people don’t even have the chance to do so.”

The more arrogant the manager was, the happier Jasper became. Now, he had the confidence to compete with the other party. Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

“Why? You guys are too shady. This should at least be a 40-60 split, right? Otherwise, we’ll be paying so much to take such a big risk. This is preposterous!”

The manager did not know why Jasper’s attitude suddenly changed at this moment.

They had negotiated the 30-70 split just now, and that was why Brock was asked to get the stamp. However, Jasper seemed to have gained some courage and wanted to fight about the price with him.

It was a pity that the manager was just a puppet and was not qualified to set the price.

These prices were already fixed, and the manager was just here to help with the process. Therefore, the manager’s face suddenly darkened at this time.

“No way, this is how it‘s always been. We have never negotiated business with others at a different price!”

This was what Jasper was waiting for, so he followed with a cold snort.

“I guess there’s no choice then. It seems that we’re not fated to do business with you. I can’t do business with you. Goodbye!”

After Jasper finished speaking, he got up and wanted to leave with Brock. Then, the manager walked to the door and opened his mouth.

“Stop!”

“What? Have you changed your mind, Manager?” Jasper turned back with a slight smile.

“Yes, I changed my mind. Originally, I wanted to send you off, but I can’t do it now. You should stay!”

The smile on the manager’s face became more and more sinister, and Jasper and Brock took one look before they took off.

Although the two of them reacted quickly, it was a pity that they were in the territory of the bandits after all. Hence, it did not take long for Jasper and Brock to be taken down on the spot after running fora while.

After Jasper and Brock were taken down, the manager went downstairs angrily and pointed at them.

He yelled, “Who do you think you are? Do you really think you’re hot shit? It’s very rare for us to give you a 30-70 split. Other people who came here would only get 20-80 at most. Since you don’t want to talk about business, then you should just stay here!”

Jasper was still acting. His face was full of horror.

“Hey, let’s not be like this. Can we talk properly and not use force? As the saying goes, there is no righteousness in buying and selling, or let’s talk about this again, shall we?”

The manager looked at Jasper with disdain.

“What‘s there to talk about? 30-70 is the ironclad rule here, it’s just that you don’t agree.”

“I-l agree.”

“You want to agree now? It’s too late! Now it’s 20-80!”

Jasper was ‘frozen’ for a moment, and asked ‘anxiously’.

“No… How did it become 20-80 all of a sudden?”

“I’ve changed my mind. I want to get 10% of the dividend, do you think I can’t do that?”

Now, Jasper could not bear it anymore, so he also started to ‘swear’.

“Well, I was wondering why you were using force. You are not normal businessmen at all!”

Unexpectedly, the manager laughed instead of getting angry when he heard this.

“You are right. We are not businessmen, we are bandits!”
