Chapter 145
The Understated Dragon Lord
Chapter 145 Twenty Million
âI made a mistake earlier, I definitely canât sell this Blood Jade to Henry for fifteen million,â Daniel suddenly declared, causing another jolt of shock among the crowd.
Brittany sneered again, asking disdainfully, âSo, you admit you were bluffing? Youâre
acknowledging that you canât sell the Blood Jade for fifteen million?â
âI said I was wrong because I borrowed ten million from Jessica, and I need to repay
her fifteen million. If I sell the Blood Jade for only fifteen million, I wouldnât have
made any profit, right? To prevent that, Iâve decided to raise the price of the Blood
Jade to twenty million. That way, I can make a meager profit of five million.â
Danielâs words almost made Andrew spit out his drink in frustration. âCountry boy, do
you even hear yourself? Five million! A âmeager profitâ? Have you been shoveling
manure on the farm for so long that itâs gone to your head? Iâm a general manager,
and my total net profit from all the operations Iâve worked on for half a year is less
than three million.â
Andrew was telling the truth. ArmCorp had always been under the management of his father, Rainbow Armstrong, who only recently handed over the role to Andrew to handle a few simple business operations. Andrew initially thought that with ArmCorpâs strength, doing business would be easy, just wining and dining clients. However, after starting work, he realized business wasnât that simple. Business veterans made him no match for their doubleâfaced tactics, making all sorts of
promises that changed overnight.
Despite closing several big deals in the past six months, most hadnât recouped their investments. The three million in profit was thanks to Rainbow Armstrongâs
relationships. Without his dad stepping in to secure a solid deal, Andrew wouldâve
made no money at all.
Collaborating with Healthy Land was the closest Andrew got to a successful deal all on his own. But Danielâs appearance caused him to walk away emptyâhanded, which is why he loathed Daniel so much.
Andrew had been hustling for half a year, leveraging ArmCorpâs resources, only to earn three million. And now, Daniel, the country boy, could potentially make a clean
five million profit in just one day by flipping the Blood Jade? If Daniel WYTRACRA, Andrew felt it would be a personal insult.
So, he simply wouldnât allow Daniel to succeed,
With this in mind, Andrew said sternly to Henry, âHenry, if you buy that Blood Jade from this country boy for twenty million, that would be much more serious. I would take it as an insult to me!â
âDonât worry, Andrew. Even if I lost my mind, I would never spend twenty million on that Blood Jade from this country boy! I admit, itâs valuable, but its worth is at most five million. Twenty million? Thatâs too much. Believe me, if someone spends that much on the Jade, by tomorrow, theyâll be the laughingstock of all New York!â Andrew was quite pleased with Henryâs response,
