Village chief, your township enterprise sells laser cannons?

Lin Man's voice was calm and even, but when it reached Lucius's ears, it stirred up a storm in the heart of this man who dared to try something new.

In that instant, Lucius's mind raced as he began calculating his gains.

The cathode material for the 811 type ternary lithium battery costs $2.5 per ton. If the price is increased by 15 times, then the price would be $37.5 per ton.

If you sell it at the normal price, you probably won't make much money.

However, this is a completely new battery cathode material, and the news hasn't spread yet. Once it does, I'm sure there will be people internationally willing to pay a high price to buy these materials for research.

Especially those energy giants, who are one step ahead of others and release results before others, can use this information to raise stock market expectations, thereby driving up stock prices, and then cash out and leave.

There's not even a need to produce research results.

Only one message needs to be sent.

Therefore, the most important thing now is not to get the goods, but to seize the production capacity. While this young man and his team are not producing much, we should secure the production capacity first.

Take advantage of this time difference to find a few suitable people and resell these things.

As for the finished batteries...

Anyway, those guys will just take the batteries apart if they get them, so there's no need to bother.

Having clarified his money-making strategy, Lucius closed his eyes and began to organize the conditions that were favorable to him.

Two or three minutes later, he opened his eyes and said to Lin Man opposite him:

"Mr. Lin, your price is very reasonable, leaving me a lot of room to make a profit."

"I agree to the transaction at your price, however, these items need to be taken outside, and we need some additional terms to guarantee this transaction."

What do you think?

"What terms?" Lin Man tilted his head, looking at Lucius with a half-smile. Just as Lucius opened his mouth to answer Lin Man's question, he preemptively spoke up:

Exclusive agency rights? Priority delivery? Or price protection?

"I'm sorry, but I think you still haven't figured out your own position."

"To me, you're just a very ordinary middleman. If you want to get goods from me and resell them elsewhere, I'll give you a reasonable price."

"Don't even think about any other conditions. Besides, the price I'm offering is the factory price."

"Customs declaration and tax payment are none of my business."

"Actually, I prefer doing domestic B2B business to international B2C business. After all, there are not as many troublesome things. In addition, for small businesses, I do not extend credit. I do not do things like payment before delivery or production before payment."

"After I finish speaking, you can add anything at any time."

These words made Lucius's teeth itch with rage.

Because the things Lin Man said were the same lines he used when negotiating business deals with other people.

Now that this applies to me, I feel uncomfortable all over.

It was tough, but the money was practically handed to me, so I couldn't just let it go to waste.

Not making money when you can is the mark of a fool!

To prepare himself mentally, Lucius raised four fingers, but before they were fully extended, he pulled two back.

"I need 20 tons of goods, the total ex-factory price is US$750 million, you need to provide me with an input tax invoice!"

20 tons of goods...

Hearing this number, Lin Man felt a bit of a headache. A few hundred kilograms of goods were easy to handle; all it would take was setting up a workbench and spending some time.

20 tons? That means we need to replace the equipment and get it working again...

He began to calculate how long it would take to place an order, find someone to customize the equipment, install and debug it, and then produce it.

Two or three minutes passed, the entire process was organized, and the time was set. He raised his right hand and snapped his fingers lightly.

"Your shipment will take about 50 days because I need to adjust the equipment."

"To show our sincerity, I will not accept any other orders until your goods are delivered. If you are okay with that, then we can sign the order."

"If you don't think it's going to work, then forget it."

After 50 days, it's Lucius's turn to have a toothache.

This guy doesn't accept the "build first, pay later" model, which means that as the buyer, he needs to pay $750 million first and then wait 50 days to receive the goods.

Although this business is clearly profitable, $750 million is not a small amount, and 50 days is not a short period of time.

If this money sits in your account, it can generate a lot of interest, and who knows if there will be other business during these 50 days.

What if we're short of that $750 million?

What if the new business is more profitable? Could this $750 million help him earn another $750 million?

Lucius hesitated...

Across from him, Lin Man noticed his hesitation but didn't urge him. He just watched with a smile, though the smile was somewhat unsettling.

Just then, there was a knock on the door, and Mo Jun's voice came into the room: "Secretary, a hotel staff member came and said someone wants to visit you. Would you like to see them?"

Mo Jun's calls were like a pillow delivered to Lin Man when she was about to fall asleep.

He quickly coughed and called out to the door, "Xiao Jun, go down and tell them I'm meeting with guests and ask them to wait five minutes."

As the footsteps outside faded into the distance, Lin Man turned his gaze back to Lucius, smiling as he spoke again, "Mr. Lucius, make your decision quickly!"

The voice was very soft, but that soft voice was like the straw that broke the camel's back, instantly burying Lucius's hesitation deep into the mud.

I must earn this money today!

No one can stop it!

Lucius nodded, took out a company information document from his pocket, and slammed it on the table: "Give me the contract, I'll sign it!"

Upon hearing this, Wang Ju immediately stepped forward and picked up the company documents from the table.

Ednaka International Business & Trade Co., Ltd.

Company registered address: No. 198 Jianghan Road, Southern New District, Shanghai

【统一社会信用代码：91310000MA1G8H2J3K】

Company account: 622...

After carefully reviewing the company information, Wang Ju turned to her work computer, logged into the company query website, entered the company information, and searched.

In less than five minutes, the relevant company information appeared in front of Wang Ju.

[Legal Representative: Lucius Edner]

[Litigation Risks: 5 (Goods Quality Disputes)]

The information is very comprehensive, even including a photo of the legal representative.

After confirming the information, Wang Ju looked at Lucius with some surprise. This guy was quite bold, actually stepping in as the legal representative himself.

That's good, though. Foreigners registering companies in China need to have paid-in capital and a clear address; they can't use virtual addresses. At least if the monk runs away, you can still find the temple.

After closing the website, he began inputting the terms they had agreed upon into the prepared contract template.

After the input was completed, it was checked twice and then confirmed by two people to ensure that there were no errors or omissions before printing was selected.

The contract was made in six copies. Upon receiving the contract, Lin Man took his father's personal seal and official seal and began to bang them on the seal.

After affixing the seal, he handed the contract to Lucius: "Mr. Lucius, please!"
