Chapter 321 - Negotiations
Opening Chapter 321 of "Peach Blossom Divine Medical God": The meeting roomâs large table was very long, the kind that could seat at least... Read on for more!
The meeting roomâs large table was very long, the kind that could seat at least forty to fifty people when combined on both sides.
Just one side could seat more than twenty people.
About ten members of the Gu Family had arrived; they were seated on the left side, mostly filling up their side.
On Chen Yangâs side, only he and Wu Kexin were present, appearing somewhat outnumbered.
However, Chen Yang didnât show any unease, he held his head high and his chest out, not the least bit intimidated by the people opposite him.
âAhem, Iâve gathered everyone here today and I wonât waste any more of your time, letâs get straight to the point and talk about the issue with the land in Liuhe Village.â
The mayor coughed twice and looked directly at Chen Yang, âChen Yang, Iâve already discussed the negotiation terms you relayed through Kexin with the general manager, and she has agreed to your conditions for an apology.
Do you have any other conditions?â
The mayor first inquired about Chen Yangâs thoughts, and his tone was very pleasant, which made Chen Yang feel quite positive about him.
âAn apology is a prerequisite.
As long as the apology is sincere, we can discuss the price in detail.â
Chen Yang said with a light smile.
At the same time, his gaze casually shifted toward the lady from the Gu Family opposite him.
Noticing Chen Yangâs gaze, the lady smiled, âMr.
Chen, since we have agreed to your conditions, naturally we will fulfill them.â
After speaking, the lady turned to look at Gu Ming, who was sitting in the third position on their side.
âGu Ming, arenât you going to apologize to Mr.
Chen?â
The ladyâs expression was stern, containing a scolding tone.
Usually, Gu Ming was quite arrogant and dismissive.
Yet, under the ladyâs scolding, he showed no temper, although he clearly appeared quite displeased.
Under the pressure from the lady, he reluctantly stood up and bowed to Chen Yang, âIâm sorry for attacking you repeatedly before, I apologize.â
Gu Mingâs apology was reluctant, but seeing his demeanor eased Chen Yangâs resentment.
âHmm, youâve apologized to me, what about Mr.
Zhang?
He wanted the land, and yet someone drove a car into Mr.
Zhang, the mayor should have mentioned that to you too, right?â
Chen Yang nodded slightly, acknowledging Gu Mingâs apology, but he also brought up Mr.
Zhang.
âOh!
The mayor mentioned that, Mr.
Chen, rest assured, on our way here, weâve already sent someone to apologize to Mr.
Zhang and brought some compensation.â
The lady answered with a gentle smile, creating a very pleasant impression.
But Chen Yang was not blinded by this impression.
Being the general manager of the Gu Family, she was definitely not a pushover.
How could Chen Yang trust her just because she smiled warmly?
And just as Chen Yang was having doubts, his phone rang in his pocket.
âMr.
Chen, it should be our people who have obtained Mr.
Zhangâs forgiveness.
This call is to inform you.â
Before Chen Yang could take out his phone, the lady had already spoken.
Chen Yang did not respond to her but took out his phone to find that it was indeed Zhang Xueying calling.
This made Chen Yang internally sigh about the lady before him; she was indeed a significant figure, seemingly guessing that he wouldnât trust her.
And she had prepared in advance, arranging for someone to call him.
Such thoughtful planning.
After a brief moment of reflection, Chen Yang answered the call without changing his expression.
âBrother Chen Yang, suddenly a bunch of people came to our house, saying they were the ones who hit my dad last time, and this time they came again to apologize and compensate.
Did you know about this?â
As soon as the call connected, Zhang Xueyingâs voice came through, explaining the situation at home.
âIâm aware of the situation.
How is Old Master Zhangâs health now?
Should be nothing serious, right?â
Chen Yang asked calmly.
âItâs all good now, Brother Chen Yang.â
Zhang Xueying replied.
âThatâs good to hear.
Then Iâll hang up first, as I have some issues to deal with here.â
Knowing the situation over there, Chen Yang didnât feel like saying much.
After all, everyone in the conference room was watching him.
âWait a moment, Brother Chen Yang.
Those who came to apologize also brought three hundred thousand as compensation for my dad.
Should I accept it or not?â
Just as Chen Yang was about to hang up, Zhang Xueying suddenly asked this.
Hearing about the three hundred thousand, Chen Yang was momentarily taken aback.
Those ladies were thorough in their actions.
He had only asked for an apology, yet they had even offered compensation.
This certainly refreshed Chen Yangâs impression of the Gu Family considerably.
âSince itâs compensation, go ahead and accept it.
Buy some supplements for the Old Master and some treats for Xiaoxiao.â
Chen Yang glanced at the wealthy woman and then answered.
âOkayâŚ
then I will accept it.â
Then Chen Yang hung up the phone.
âHow is it Mr.
Chen, we came to meet with you in person with sincere intentions.â
As soon as the phone call ended, the wealthy woman immediately spoke up with a smile.
Chen Yang nodded, âI have felt your sincerity.
Letâs talk about the price for that parcel of land now.â
The Gu Family showed sincerity, and Chen Yang was not going to drag things out.
He directly indicated that they could start discussing the price.
This made the wealthy womanâs smile even broader.
âGreat, since Mr.
Chen is straightforward, we wonât drag things out either.â
With a broad smile, the wealthy woman said, âI heard Mr.
Chen leased that piece of land for one hundred thousand.
Iâll offer twenty times that amount.
What do you think?â
Upon hearing the bid, the mayor sitting between them gasped in astonishment.
He was shocked beyond belief; he had never expected the Gu Family to start with an offer of two million!
Surprised as he was, he did not speak out, as it was a negotiation between Chen Yang and the wealthy woman.
He was only supposed to mediate if they couldnât reach an agreement.
After the wealthy woman made her offer, all eyes in the conference room turned to Chen Yang.
Almost everyone thought that Chen Yang, a farmer, certainly wouldnât be able to resist such an offer.
But to everyoneâs surprise, Chen Yang just smiled and shook his head, âThis price is too low.
It wonât work.â
The moment Chen Yang spoke, everyoneâs expression changed, except for that of the wealthy woman.
âChen Yang!
Our Gu Family has already shown enough sincerity.
Donât overstep your bounds!
Two million is already our limit.
If you donât agree, we might just walk away.â
Gu Ming couldnât help but speak up, feeling that Chen Yang was inflating the price on purpose.
âExactly, our Gu Family has already shown ample sincerity.
Doing business like this is really pointless!â
After Gu Ming spoke, the young woman sitting next to the wealthy woman, in the second position, chimed in as well.
Her expression was very displeased, and her eyes even held a trace of disdain.
