Chapter 153: Signing the Agreement at a Low Price (2/2)

After a confusing game, the last move was nothing short of a masterstroke.

He immediately cursed and took the opponent by surprise.

Checkmate, no solution!

The problem with chess was solved.

But an agreement is not like chess; after one game, you can play another.

Manager Ma was completely stunned.

He didn’t have time to accept the cigarette offered by the old man, hurriedly walked downstairs with his female colleague, and after carefully reviewing the agreement several times to confirm its legality and validity, he immediately gritted his teeth and questioned, “How can you sign this… My good buddies couldn’t secure this price, oh… oh… if the boss finds out, he’ll kill me!”

Indeed.

The boss had repeatedly said that the lowest price should be four hundred thousand, and it must be a genuine friendship price.

For anyone else, even if the property was empty, it couldn’t be less than 450,000 a year.

Manager Ma was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.

Meanwhile.

Zhao Qingfeng also approached with Huang Hao.

He appeared relaxed, as if signing a significant agreement was as simple as buying a pair of socks.

Huang Hao, on the other hand, was panicking, trembling as he handed the purchased Coke to Manager Ma.

Manager Ma was thirsty and needed to calm down.

The Coke wasn’t chilled, but drinking it didn’t make him feel warm; instead, he felt exhilarated and cool!

“Your name is Zhao Qingfeng, right?”

Manager Ma remembered the name on the signature.

“Yes.”

Zhao Qingfeng shook hands, calm and composed.

“Eh?”

Just as Manager Ma was about to say something, he suddenly remembered who Zhao Qingfeng was, “Aren’t you that young guy from the Zhao family? Are you really renting or just pretending to impress your aunts by causing trouble here?”

His thoughts didn’t matter.

Zhao Qingfeng didn’t explain but politely said, “Old Ma, thank you for giving me the lowest price today. I didn’t expect you to be so generous. I’ll find a way to thank you properly in the future.”

After saying this.

Zhao Qingfeng left stylishly with Huang Hao.

Manager Ma was slightly stunned, then hurriedly followed, shouting, “Zhao Qingfeng, it’s not too late to back out now. The agreement is legally binding; this is no joke!”

Zhao Qingfeng smiled slightly, “Manager Ma, I won’t back out. It’s just empty space to you anyway, and I’ve paid a deposit and signed a 10 million penalty clause. If I can’t pay by August 10, it’s just a month wasted for you, and you still profit, right?”

Manager Ma thought about it and agreed.

But how to explain this to the boss?

Seeing him lost in thought, Zhao Qingfeng added another comment.

“Old Ma, you are exceptionally capable; you’ll surely find a way to explain it to the boss.”

“Since I’ve put you in a difficult position, I can’t be ungrateful.”

“Here’s what we’ll do: once my supermarket opens, I’ll personally give you a 20,000 yuan recharge card.”

“And I plan to do more than just open one store in this mall. I have other businesses in mind, and I’ll need your support.”

Really?

Manager Ma felt like he was on a roller coaster, utterly confused.

He also felt completely fooled, but couldn’t pinpoint how…

Regardless, the agreement was clear.

Manager Ma frowned, since the other party promised benefits, he couldn’t complain too much and asked Zhao Qingfeng about his future plans.

Specifics?

There were too many to mention.

For example, buying land in the county to build high-rises, constructing villas in scenic suburbs, or opening KTVs, amusement parks, internet cafes, restaurants, etc., he aimed to create a dreamlike living environment for everyone who treated him well.

But for now.

Aside from rushing to fulfill his mother’s dream on her birthday, there was another matter.

“Maybe open a shoe store.”

Zhao Qingfeng smiled, shook hands with Manager Ma, and then said goodbye.

“You kid, that’s 10 million, 10 million! Let me tell you, Zhao Qingfeng, be careful, don’t bite off more than you can chew!”

Manager Ma’s voice followed behind, the sheer amount of 10 million astonishing passersby.

Millionaires were rare in the county.

10 million?

They must be talking about game currency from Lianzhong Chess & Cards!

…

Ten minutes later.

Zhao Qingfeng and Huang Hao waited at the entrance of the Xtep store for Bashin and Chin Gentsai.

“Are you ready?”

He raised his eyebrows at the two.
