Chapter 2555 - 1867: Milo Explodes with Rage (Part 3)
In an instant, everyone’s expressions turned complicated, and they began looking at each other.
"I know all of you are on a tight schedule. After Karan, you’ll be heading straight to the Oshan Chieftaincy." Milo smiled, swept his gaze over everyone, and signaled his assistant again to switch the screen to a report.
"If we fail to reach a trade cooperation agreement with all of you here, then we can only set our sights on a friendly neighboring country. On these matters, we’ll go talk to Oshan instead..."
Milo used a laser pointer to tap at chart after chart of data, explaining a business plan to everyone.
Everyone present couldn’t help but frown and start whispering among themselves.
It wasn’t anything else—what Milo was describing in his report was exactly the scope of the cooperation they were planning to discuss with Oshan.
The Karan business community is going to steal their business?!
As everyone knew, Karan and Oshan were both western African chieftaincies and neighboring states; the two sides had natural advantages in commercial cooperation!
Everyone immediately felt a surge of pressure.
Milo took in everyone’s reactions, a faint smile curling at his lips as he even glanced at Bai Xiaosheng.
Bai Xiaosheng sat there without saying a word, rubbing his chin as he stared at the big screen, as if he, too, were "recognizing reality."
"So now, what do you all think? Doesn’t cooperation between us become virtually inevitable?"
At that, the whole room fell silent.
"Actually, working with us won’t be a loss in the long run. Now, I’ll give you another price range—not as low as the one Mr. Bai proposed. If you find it acceptable, we can formally sign today. And of course, we’ll help you make big moves over in Oshan." Milo seized the momentum to further "stir them up."
As he spoke, he had his assistant operate the computer, projecting the various cooperation terms and price ranges he had already prepared onto the big screen.
Milo had clearly planned all of this in advance!
He’d been waiting for this very moment to play it all out!
This man had decided the entire rhythm of today from the very beginning!
Realizing this, everyone present felt a chill in their hearts.
This Milo—meticulous, thorough in his thinking, and at such a young age, terrifying to this degree!
At this point, Milo was no longer just haggling over price with a single representative, Bai Xiaosheng—he was using both carrot and stick to persuade everyone in the room!
And he had, more or less, achieved the situation he wanted.
"Clap, clap, clap."
Just as the room had fallen silent, someone suddenly started clapping.
Everyone, Milo included, instinctively looked over.
The one clapping was none other than Bai Xiaosheng.
At this moment, Bai Xiaosheng stood up, smiling as he looked at Milo.
"Mr. Milo, you truly prepared thoroughly and went to great lengths for this signing." Bai Xiaosheng said with a smile.
"You flatter me."
Milo smiled and gave a slight bow in return for Bai Xiaosheng’s praise.
"However, there’s been a small change on our side." Bai Xiaosheng said, sweeping a glance around the room. "I haven’t had time to tell everyone yet, so I thought I’d brief you all here."
That one sentence made Milo’s eyes flicker.
Everyone in the room also turned to Bai Xiaosheng in surprise, not knowing why he would say that.
Bai Xiaosheng raised a hand toward Lin Weiwei and Lei Ying.
The two immediately understood, stood up, and each carried a large stack of paper documents toward the crowd.
Because everything had been neatly prepared in advance, they only needed two minutes to hand a copy to everyone present.
The businessmen who received the documents flipped through them and were instantly stunned.
"These are contracts?"
"The other party has already signed; they’re just waiting for our signatures!"
"These clauses, this content... not bad at all..."
The crowd couldn’t help but exclaim to one another.
Milo froze for a second, looking suspiciously from Bai Xiaosheng to the others.
What contracts?
Bai Xiaosheng smiled and said to Milo, "I’m really sorry, Mr. Milo. We will be signing with the Karan business community here to fulfill Huaxia’s commitments to Karan. Whether it’s bilateral trade or expanding employment, we’ll make sure the Karan gov.ernment is very satisfied."
"Who are you signing with?" Milo stared at Bai Xiaosheng in disbelief as he spoke.
Almost all the large and major companies in the Karan business world were on his side—who the hell could Bai Xiaosheng be signing with!
Bai Xiaosheng smiled, unhurried, and said, "Not long ago, a major consortium decided to enter Karan. The Karan royal family even granted them an audience and offered extremely generous conditions—lots of policies, and they’ve already signed for land parcels and support funds at the local level. And this very morning, they obtained a new contract and plan to double their investment..."
"The Yang Corporation!"
Milo suddenly understood, staring at Bai Xiaosheng in shock.
"Yes, the Yang Corporation. This time, they’ll be providing us with a large volume of high-quality cooperation. If your side won’t bring the price down, then I’m afraid we can’t continue these talks." Bai Xiaosheng said with a smile.
All that talk about international impact and affecting international friendship—once these cooperation deals appeared, it all evaporated.
None of it was a problem anymore.
Milo’s eyes went blank, while everyone else couldn’t help but feel excited and encouraged.
Bai Xiaosheng really had the goods!
He’d actually secured such favorable cooperation!
And he’d managed to keep such major good news under wraps!
What was going on with the Yang Family this time, to dare risk offending the Karan business community and still offer such generous partnership terms!
In their astonishment, everyone found it unbelievable and had no idea how Bai Xiaosheng had pulled it off!
"Also, Mr. Milo, I think the report you just presented is really well done!"
"It’s just a pity it’s all empty talk!"
"With tensions between Oshan and Karan escalating, nobody knows when they’ll start sanctioning each other. Commercial cooperation? If your businessmen actually dare to go, I’ll be impressed!"
"Don’t assume we don’t follow the news around here."
Bai Xiaosheng said with a smile.
Everyone present immediately turned odd looks on Milo.
Milo’s face suddenly turned very ugly.
"Still, to make your case convincing, that report is full of solid, real-world material. I really appreciate that." Bai Xiaosheng smiled. "As it happens, I’ve got a pretty good memory. Your report gave me a lot of inspiration; later, I’ll use that material to negotiate cooperation with the Oshan business community. You don’t mind, do you?"
"You!"
That last line nearly made Milo explode. He pointed at Bai Xiaosheng, ignoring everyone else in the room, and said, "Are you a devil?!"
