The betrothal gift is 100,000 yuan, what does it mean to give 200,000

Chapter 424 Hope dashed
Mingzhu City, Hanhai Restaurant.

In the corridor on the third floor.

Jiang Ning was standing by the window, holding up her cell phone, talking to a friend.

"Don't worry, Xiao Ning. I've talked to my dad about this, and he promised to give the people at the detention center a thorough warning. Auntie won't suffer any injustice."

A slightly clear female voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Thank you so much, Sister Cui. I will contact you some other day and visit you to thank you and my uncle and aunt for your help." Jiang Ning showed a rare smile on her face, and was very pleased with the news.

"What are you talking about? We have been good friends for so many years."

"That's it for now, Sister Cui. I'll make an appointment when you're free."

"Don't worry about coming to my house, just take care of your aunt's business first...bye."

The phone hangs up.

Jiang Ning breathed a sigh of relief.

Sister Cui had been her classmate for many years in junior high and high school. She was one year older than her and they didn’t have much contact on a daily basis, but fortunately they had a good relationship.

After the Jiang family got into trouble, she looked for connections everywhere and heard that Sister Cui's father had been promoted to a high-ranking leader in Mingzhu City. She then quickly found his phone number and asked Sister Cui for help in taking care of Jiang Ruxue.

The leader has a clean style and does not accept any gifts.

So Jiang Ning sensibly gave it to her classmate.

Since the other party agreed to take care of her, it would probably allow her mother to suffer less. When she thought of this, she felt better.

This is one of the few good news I have received in the few days since I returned to Mingzhu City.

Followed by.

Jiang Ning returned from the corridor to the private room of Yunting on the third floor and sat down.

The evening was the time agreed upon for the negotiation with Mr. Qi.

In order not to be at a disadvantage, she specially invited the eloquent Monana, as well as a leader from the company and the lawyer she hired, a total of four people.

I have been waiting since 6pm till now.

But there was no sign of Mr. Qi.

After Jiang Ning sat back in her seat, the waiter knocked on the door and came in half a minute later.

"Sir, do you want us to wait a while for the food to be served? Or should we wait right now?"

"Wait a little longer, I'll call you when the food is ready."

"Ok."

The waiter returned and Monana, who had been sitting upright, curled her lips, looking quite unhappy.

"This Qi guy is really too arrogant. We've been waiting for an hour and a half, and there's not even a ghost, let alone a person. How about Secretary Jiang, give him a call to urge him?"

"Forget it, the last ten minutes. If you don't come, I'll ask."

Seeing her anxiety, Jiang Ning could only persuade her kindly.

By now.

Those who come to negotiate are already in a lower position, like dough, and can be manipulated by others.

Even if you pretend to be tough, if you don't have enough confidence, how far can you go?

Perhaps, Mr. Qi, who had his own plans, knew the current situation of the Jiang family better than they did. He knew that Jiang Ruxue was trapped inside and outside, and had no choice but to give up the building with great pain.

And this separation is extremely urgent.

As long as the funds do not arrive and the lawsuit is not settled, Jiang Ruxue will suffer for another day.

It is this kind of mentality that makes it impossible to withstand the pressure during negotiations.

Deliberately delaying time is probably just a means of exerting pressure.

In fact, the man named Qi was eager to swallow up the Meiruxue Company in one gulp, without any delay.

……

At night, 8:03.

Everyone in the private room was already feeling sleepy. When they were exhausted from waiting, a burst of quick footsteps was heard in the corridor.

Then the door was pushed open with a "click".

A sturdy man with slicked back hair and about 1.8 meters tall walked in.

There were two people following behind him, both dressed in suits.

Seeing him come in, everyone in the private room stood up together. Jiang Ning forced a smile and nodded in greeting.

"Mr. Qi is here, please take a seat."

"Well," Qi responded coldly, pulled out a seat and sat down, "There was a traffic jam on the road, so we were late."

After hearing what he said, Monana immediately rolled her eyes.

If it weren't for Chen Yuan's face, she would have done her best to help Jiang Ning. Monana would not be willing to put up with this Qi guy.

I'm afraid he will just start by accusing the other person of showing off.

"It's okay, we didn't have to wait long, I'll ask the waiter to serve the food now."

"Whatever." The man surnamed Qi lowered his head and crossed his legs.

"Mr. Qi, we talked about your acquisition of the Meiruxue Building on the phone before. At that time, we said that you would complete the acquisition of the building at a price of 2.2 million. This price——"

The lawyer was about to get straight to the point and start the conversation.

Qi Yingchen interrupted her with a wave of his hand.

"Wait a minute, the previous number is no longer valid. That's what I told Jiang Ruzheng. Because the market price is changing, real estate is just like stocks, it goes up and down, and I have to make adjustments based on the market price."

"Ah?" The lawyer was stunned.

"The new price is 2.13 million, and I have prepared the contract," Qi Yingchen asked the lawyer beside him to bring the contract and slammed it on the table. "If Ms. Jiang agrees, just sign it."

"How can you do this? You can't just lower the price without saying anything, right? Seven million is gone just by talking? What a joke." Monana couldn't hold it in anymore and said with eyes wide open.

"I'm not kidding. If you agree, sign it. If you don't agree, there will be a new price tomorrow." Qi Yingchen showed a sarcastic smile.

He adjusted his sleeves, not caring at all about the increasingly ugly faces of the people in the private room. "I agreed with Jiang Ruzheng before, but he didn't want the price. There's nothing I can do. It's impossible to ask for that price now. After all, the market fluctuates."

Looking at his expression, he had no scruples, as if the Jiang family had no other options but to sell the building.

Like cutting off an arm to survive.

Jiang Ning originally planned to raise the price through negotiation. Although she expected Qi to take advantage of the situation, she did not expect that the other party would treat the most basic business rules as a joke and act like a gangster.

This blocked what she wanted to say and she was unable to react for a while.

"Mr. Qi is a senior in the business world. I am just a junior and I dare not say that I know more than Mr. Qi, but it is not appropriate to just sign the contract. Let's negotiate and try to reach a price that both of us are satisfied with..." After reacting, Jiang Ning said tactfully.

"Hmph, there's nothing to discuss," Qi Yingchen snorted coldly, "If you're willing to sign, then read the contract. If you're not willing, don't waste my time. I have a meeting tonight."

Coincidentally, at this moment, the cell phone in the pocket of the assistant he brought with him rang.

The "ring, ring, ring" sound was very harsh in the tense atmosphere of the private room.

The assistant took a look in his pocket.

"Boss Qi, the CEO of the company is urging us."

"I'm busy with work, and I really don't have the time to talk more. Five minutes," Qi Yingchen looked at his watch, "If you don't agree, let's make an appointment another day."

"If Mr. Qi has this attitude, there is really no way to talk." The lawyer said in a deep voice.

"Then let's not talk about it! Business is business, and no one is asking you to sell it."

"you--"

Seeing that a quarrel was about to break out at the dinner table, Jiang Ning quickly spoke out to stop it.

She suppressed her temper, stood up and took the contract, and everyone at the table was looking at her.

In full view.

The paper flipped over with a "whoosh".

Jiang Ning, who actually saw the contents of the contract, frowned deeply.

"It says here that the purchase price... includes the equipment in our factory and the facilities in the building???"

"Yes, Miss Jiang, your uncle explained earlier that after the Mei Ruxue Company went bankrupt, he no longer had any intention of getting involved in business, and asked me to purchase the products and facilities of those factories. I also gave a suitable price and included it in the contract."

"But the equipment in those factories is very expensive, not to mention the buildings. The price you gave is totally insufficient. Even if we sell them one by one, they are worth tens of millions. The market price is very clear." Jiang Ning's eyes were full of confusion.

"Boss Jiang is already in deep trouble and has no intention of making a comeback. These things are nothing but junk. I'm doing you a favor and buying them up. How can I say that what I give you is not enough?"

"You're going too far!" Jiang Ning finally couldn't help it and looked at Qi Yingchen with a gloomy face.

This is no longer simply taking advantage of someone's misfortune.

He is totally adding insult to injury.

"Miss Jiang, let me remind you that the five minutes are almost up."

"Then please go ahead, Mr. Qi."

"Okay," Qi Yingchen stood up and said sarcastically, "Next time you come to me, the price won't be this high. If you don't sell it to me, who else will be willing to buy your junk?"

Half a minute later.

With a "bang" sound.

The group slammed the door and left.

The waiter had just brought the dishes and was standing at the door when he witnessed this embarrassing and tense scene.

This can no longer be considered a negotiation, but rather a unilateral notification.

As the saying goes, a tiger in dire straits is bullied by dogs. Jiang Ruxue is neither a tiger nor a dog. She and the current Meiruxue company have become a sick cat.

Qi Yingchen had a good plan. Not only did he want to purchase the building at a low price, but he also wanted to give back the equipment worth tens of millions to several brands that he was cooperating with. Of course, they were happy to receive them in their own factories and pick up tens of millions for nothing.

Although Jiang Ning said harsh words, she was still furious after the people left.

But, after calming down.

She couldn't help feeling a little desperate.

Things have come to this, just as Qi Yingchen said, who else can I sell it to if not him?
There are not many people with proper qualifications in the whole Mingzhu City. She had tried to contact them before, but those people were very interested at first, but after hearing the specific location, they hung up the phone as if avoiding the plague.

Even if you use your toes to think, you can tell that someone must have made arrangements in advance.

Leaving the Jiang family no choice.

She originally wanted to negotiate a suitable price in the afternoon, sell the building, and borrow some money.

All added up, it was enough to pay off the debt.

But at noon and in the afternoon, both of these ideas were shattered.

Suddenly, Jiang Ning felt extremely helpless. Depression and sadness filled her heart. But she didn't even have the qualifications to cry. After a short respite, she had to regroup and sort out this mess.

If she escaped too, Jiang Ruxue would have died of old age in prison.

……

In the private room.

Jiang Ning lowered her head, immersed in a depressed mood.

The people around looked at each other, not knowing how to persuade him.

There were many dishes on the table, but no one started eating. After the waiter served the dishes, he left in a hurry without saying a word.

"Well... let's eat first. We've been waiting for so long." Jiang Ning forced a very stiff smile and raised her head and said, "We'll discuss it after we get back. There will always be a way."

"Yes, there is always a way."

Monana also echoed.

However, at this moment.

The phone rang again, and an unfamiliar number appeared on Jiang Ning's phone screen.

She cast her eyes to the table.
