Chapter 1748: Chapter 1406: Schemes, Nothing but Schemes Bai Xiaosheng demanded exorbitantly, pushing conditions to a point nearly unacceptable for Luo Danlun! Luo Danlun’s face was grim as he looked at Bai Xiaosheng, his heart full of resentment and anger. Indeed, his grandfather Luo Yuefeng had predicted this! This person really takes advantage of the situation; once the cards flip, he becomes “insatiable”! Looking at Bai Xiaosheng, who seemed at ease, and thinking about his earlier loss of control, Luo Yuefeng forcefully suppressed his instant fury and asked in a low voice, “Bai, you say the advantage is yours? Can you tell me what advantage you hold!” Bai Xiaosheng smiled. With one light remark, he again made Luo Danlun feel like he was about to explode. “I have the power to collaborate with you or not!” Bai Xiaosheng said. That remark nearly made Luo Danlun slam the table. Get lost! My Luo Family won’t cooperate with you! Luo Danlun wished he could drive Bai Xiaosheng out. Arrogant, truly too arrogant! Clearly, you came to my Luo Family to negotiate the cooperation, and now it turned into whether to cooperate or not depending on your whims. Who do you think you are! You just saved Prince Charlie, got thanked by Princess Aisha, received the royal Knight’s Medal, and might be remembered by the Queen… With anger seething, Luo Danlun recalled these new bargaining chips Bai Xiaosheng acquired, and his rage suddenly subsided, being suppressed again. Kicking Bai Xiaosheng out would be easy, but continuing negotiations with him is difficult. His grandfather also mentioned this being a business experience for him! Recalling this, Luo Danlun clenched his fist, his nails piercing the flesh, calming himself down. This negotiation is also a contest; how can I lose my cool first and break it off without self-restraint? Wouldn’t that mean I’ve truly lost to him! Thinking about being outdone by Bai Xiaosheng, Luo Danlun gritted his teeth to suppress the urge to explode. Resisting twice from the brink of explosion, Bai Xiaosheng couldn’t help but admire Luo Danlun. Truly worthy of being a scion of a prominent family; this self-control is impressive! Bai Xiaosheng silently praised. “Honest words speak no hidden truths. Yes, cooperating with you, Bai, is beneficial for my Luo Family, but it’s not essential!” Luo Danlun calmed himself and said coldly. “Bai, you know your value, but don’t overestimate your worth! And don’t overestimate my Luo Family’s tolerance for you!” “Simply put, you are valuable, but if your asking price exceeds or equals your worth, making our gains nonexistent, why should we waste time on this!” Luo Danlun plainly stated. He seemed to have an epiphany, regaining his rationality, intending to be direct and clarify his bottom line. At this moment, the eloquence and intellect drilled by Luo Yuefeng exploded from Luo Danlun. Bai Xiaosheng nodded. He showed understanding of Luo Danlun’s words and smiled, “Mr. Luo, don’t be too excited. Look, business negotiations are about you offer and I offer, you press and I raise, finding a point of mutual benefit. We can discuss slowly.” Bai Xiaosheng’s balance kept Luo Danlun from snapping. “Fine. Let’s talk!” Luo Danlun leaned forward, gazing into Bai Xiaosheng’s eyes, affirming, “Based on what you said, I’ve roughly calculated the extent of your full demands. I can tell you, we can only agree to thirty percent of your demands, no more!” Luo Danlun made a gesture of drawing the line, aiming to thwart Bai Xiaosheng’s exorbitant demands. Before Bai Xiaosheng could speak, Luo Danlun earnestly added, “Bai, since I’ve dealt with family affairs, you might be the first to visit us with a threatening posture and force our Luo Family to make business concessions. You’ve seen my sincerity and patience; I hope you’ll take the opportunity to yield!” Luo Danlun’s voice was ghostly cold, filled with threats, chilling the room’s atmosphere. Bai Xiaosheng looked into Luo Danlun’s eyes and smiled. No matter how stern Luo Danlun was, he couldn’t escape Bai Xiaosheng’s gaze, as Bai Xiaosheng could read his subtle expressions and know if he’d truly reached his limit. “Thirty percent of the conditions leave our Greater China Region at a loss, and we will have to rush a lot of things, leaving many hidden dangers. Please understand that.” Bai Xiaosheng smiled and said, “Thirty percent? Then, we’d rather do things independently here. Anyway, my relations with the royal family are good, and rallying related enterprises could achieve something, though it might conflict with Luo Family’s business.” Casually, Bai Xiaosheng seemed to counter-threat. “We have a saying in Huaxia, ‘A mighty dragon cannot suppress a local snake!’ With my Luo Family’s power in Europe, trying to infringe on our interests here might be unwise! Perhaps, it is seeking one’s own demise!” Luo Danlun arrogantly said. As a descendant of the Luo Family, he has confidence and pride. Given connections and resources, how could an outsider like Bai Xiaosheng compete against the colossal advantage that is the Luo Family!

Then, Bai Xiaosheng nodded, smiling, “Indeed, even if I mobilize all the Greater China Region’s enterprises to contend with the Luo Family, it would still be a foolish dream! After all, the Luo Family ranks right below our Zhenbei Group as a financial aristocracy!”
