The Haas Armed Forces should begin their second round of price negotiations with her within three days.
Now, seven days had passed, and Leo should have contacted her by now.
So, she took out her phone, logged into the communication tool specifically for contacting Leo, and wanted to take advantage of these two days to finalize the order.
"Huh, no messages?"
Yu Qin glanced at her phone and couldn't help but mutter to herself.
On this communication tool, Leo hadn't sent her a single message, which was very strange.
"What's wrong?"
Lucas asked from across her.
"Logically speaking, Leo should have started contacting us a long time ago," Yu Qin said with a puzzled look on her face, not avoiding Lucas.
"Seven whole days without any contact?" Lucas furrowed his brow, also finding it strange.
Yu Qin shook her head: "Yes, he hasn't reached out to me."
"They're in desperate need of weapons, why aren't they in a hurry now?" Lucas's eyes widened, further puzzled.
In his understanding,
the Haas Armed Forces were currently amidst the flames of war, needing a substantial amount of weapon supplies.
Last time,
which was the first negotiation between Yu Qin and Leo, he even inquired about the orders in question with Yu Qin.
Originally, the Morgan Group had preliminarily decided that Yu Keke would handle the military weapons trade of the Asia-Pacific Branch, serving as the supplier, but Yu Keke was arrested by the Anling Police. The incident happened so suddenly that the headquarters temporarily commissioned Yu Qin to take over, responsible for military weapon transactions in the Middle East and Southeast Asia, with Lucas assisting.
Yu Qin put her phone aside, crossed her arms, and fell into contemplation.
Lucas's conjecture was quite accurate.
Right now, the Haas Armed Forces should indeed be in a hurry, but they hadn't contacted her at all for seven days!
There must be demons when things are abnormal!
Lucas speculated, "Yu Qin, is it possible that the Haas Armed Forces found another military weapons supplier?"
"Impossible!"
Yu Qin immediately rejected the idea, "Lucas, you might not know, but currently, the large arms dealers like 'Lockheed,' 'Raytheon,' 'Grumman,' these companies, couldn't possibly supply them with weapons."
"What about the others?" Lucas asked.
"There are 'Sukhoi,' 'Grumman,' 'Finmeccanica,' whose prices are much higher than ours, and the Haas Armed Forces haven't cooperated with them before. In a short period, it's impossible to reach any partnership."
Yu Qin explained.
Lucas's brow twisted, recalling some bans.
Indeed, interests and positions determined that, for the short term, the Haas Armed Forces could only choose the Morgan Group as their arms dealer.
"So what's going on now?" Lucas pondered a bit, then asked.
Yu Qin was momentarily at a loss for words: "Well, perhaps they are still in the stage of preparing funds, which is common in military weapons transactions."
Many armed groups don't operate on cash flow.
More often, they engage in debt settlements with goods.
"That's possible."
Lucas nodded but then suggested, "How about we ask Leo and see what their situation is?"
Yu Qin opened her mouth.
She originally wanted to say confidently, 'No need,' but after the unexpected turn of events where Yu Keke's execution went from immediate to a suspended sentence, her heart filled with doubts.
Just to be on the safe side, better ask.
Thus, Yu Qin picked up her phone, dialed through a virtual IP, and called Leo's number.
Dial tone...Dial tone...Dial tone...
The call tone rang for about ten seconds before Yu Qin heard the other party's voice, "Yu, I'm very glad to receive your call."
On the other end of the line,
Leo's voice sounded very warm and cheerful, not at all in a hurry.
Yu Qin's brows furrowed, but she asked calmly, "Mr. Leo, what has you in such high spirits?"
"I ate a piece of candy tonight, you know, I haven't had sugar in so long, the sweetness flooded my taste buds, so I'm very happy."
Leo casually found an excuse to fend off Yu Qin.
Yu Qin rolled her eyes, her lips twitching slightly: "A piece of candy can make Mr. Leo this happy."
"Of course, I'm easily satisfied."
At this time, Leo was at the Baoying Grand Hotel in Anling City, having just taken a bath, ready to lie down and wait for the signing tomorrow.
Through a week's negotiations with Lin Chuan, the details of the cooperation had been settled; the original total price was 60.48 million US dollars, but Lin Chuan directly rounded it down. Tomorrow, they would formally sign.
This deal was only 60 million US dollars!
How could Leo not be happy?
If it were from Yu Qin, just 3 remote box-type rocket launchers would cost 30 million US dollars.
The same quality equipment from Lin Chuan only required half the price!
Leo truly tasted sweetness like candy.
As for Yu Qin and the Morgan Group...
Leo had long thrown them to the back of his mind. He only regretted why he hadn't encountered a conscientious and competitively priced arms dealer like Lin Chuan sooner!
Damn, he had been badly cheated by the Morgan Group before!
On this side,
Yu Qin calmed her emotions: "Mr. Leo, what have you considered regarding the weapons order we discussed last time?"
Leo replied unhurriedly, "Still considering."
"Still considering?"
Yu Qin detected something in Leo's tone and decided to put some pressure on him, "Currently, our newly developed 'remote box-type rocket launchers' are in high demand. I already have several clients inquiring about them, and two armed forces are even more eager to get their hands on the rocket launchers and put them to use."
Her implication was clear.
——If you don't place an order now, I'm going to sell to someone else. When you're left with nothing, don't blame me.
