Leveling Up With My Pet-Chapter 448 Business Boom!

Su Jie's longing gaze fixated upon the black alloys, a shimmer of envy dancing in his eyes. He approached Liu Yong with cautious curiosity, inquiring, "Mr. Liu, I am interested in acquiring this exquisite black alloy. Could you enlighten me regarding its pricing?"

Liu Yong extended a single, slender finger, using it as a visual aid to emphasize, "We sell this alloy by the kilogram, and the cost per kilogram is as follows."

As he completed his sentence, Liu Yong theatrically waved his finger before Su Jie, inviting him to look closer.

Su Jie's mind worked rapidly, calculating, "A hundred yuan per kilogram, hmm, it's somewhat expensive, but it falls within our acceptable range."

However, Su Jie couldn't resist the urge to negotiate, expressing, "Mr. Liu, while a hundred yuan per kilogram is reasonable, a hundred thousand yuan for a ton seems rather steep."

Liu Yong's lips curved into a knowing smile, followed by a gentle, dismissive shake. He retorted with a grin, "No, Mr. Su, you've misunderstood. It's not a hundred yuan per kilogram; our black alloy is far more precious."

Su Jie's heart skipped a beat, and he froze.

Could it be a thousand yuan per kilogram?

Such an exorbitant price was usually reserved for rare, imported alloys. In Su Jie's perception, domestic alloys were generally more affordable.

A crowd had gathered nearby, given the exhibition's bustling atmosphere. While Liu Yong, Su Jie, and others occupied the reception area, they were surrounded by many onlookers.

Many curious eyes had now landed upon this intriguing scenario, wondering about the cost of this wondrous black alloy that had yielded such remarkable alloy knives.

Oh my God!

It's not a hundred yuan per kilogram; it's a thousand yuan per kilogram!

Numerous spectators stared in disbelief at Liu Yong's outstretched finger as if it were an enchanted wand.

Recovering from his shock, Su Jie, the shrewd businessman, decided to bargain, "Mr. Liu, a thousand yuan per kilogram is quite steep. Could we negotiate a more favourable rate? We're prepared to place orders for ten thousand kilograms or tens of thousands."

Liu Yong responded, "Mr. Su, I apologize for any confusion, but it's not a thousand yuan per kilogram; it's ten thousand yuan per kilogram. Our pricing is clear, and there's no deception involved."

What!

Not a thousand yuan, but ten thousand yuan!

Gasps rippled through the surrounding crowd, as almost no one had anticipated such a staggering price.

It was indeed an astronomical sum!

Su Jie was taken aback yet again, shaking his head in disbelief.

"This is beyond our budget; we can't afford it."

With a tranquil demeanour, Liu Yong showed no urgency. He knew that the quality of their product was unparalleled, far superior to any imported alloy. While seemingly extravagant, the price of ten thousand yuan per kilogram still offered remarkable value for the performance it delivered.

Shortly after that, Han Guang approached, his countenance radiating jubilance. Their victory in the competition provided exceptional publicity for the Taishan Alloy Cutting Tool Group and effectively expelled Maqi Alloy Cutting Tool Group from the domestic market.

"Brother Yong!"

From a distance, Han Guang greeted Liu Yong with a beaming smile.

Liu Yong warmly replied, "Mr. Han, please join us. You've certainly made quite an impression today."

Grateful, Han Guang acknowledged, "Brother Yong, it's all thanks to you. Without your black alloy, we wouldn't have achieved this level of success. March Company would have humiliated us."

This sentiment was undeniably true.

They stood no chance against the March Alloy Cutting Tool Group without the black alloy. The victor would've undoubtedly been Zhu Xiangsheng, who had since departed in disgrace.

With heartfelt gratitude, Han Guang said, "Brother Yong, we'd like to order another 100 tons of black alloy."

A hundred tons!

Incredible!

There was quite a crowd around, and many had overheard the conversation between the two. Su Jie had balked at the ten thousand yuan per kilogram price tag, while Han Guang was ready to secure a hundred tons at once.

A staggering hundred tons!

At ten thousand yuan per kilogram, this purchase amounted to a billion yuan. 𝒇𝓻𝙚𝙚𝙬𝙚𝙗𝒏𝒐𝒗𝙚𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝒎

A billion!

This figure was nothing short of astronomical.

The news of such substantial orders spread rapidly. The word was out that the ten thousand yuan per kilogram price had spurred numerous alloy-cutting tool manufacturers to action. They had initially hesitated, but witnessing Taishan Alloy Cutting Tool Group's orders, they began flocking to the Global Specialty Materials Group's exhibition area.

"Mr. Liu, we'd like to place an order for 200 tons!"

"I'll take a hundred tons!"

"I—I'd like to buy 300 tons!"

The clamour filled the air.

There was more than just a handful at this exhibition; hundreds of alloy manufacturers were in attendance. Liu Yong and his team were soon engulfed by the clamouring crowd, all waving banknotes and clamouring for black alloy.

The range of orders spanned from dozens of tons to several hundred tons!

Witnessing this remarkable scene, Xin Feiwen couldn't help but grin with delight. After a hasty calculation, it was apparent that the total orders exceeded a thousand tons.

Liu Yong cheerfully urged, "Please line up, one by one, and sign contracts with Mr. Xin."

The contracts had been prepared well in advance, and hundreds of copies were readily available, requiring only the details to be filled in.

Xin Feiwen, flanked by two assistants, distributed the pre-prepared contracts and official seals to sign contracts with each tool manufacturer, one by one.

The queue stretched out in front of them, extending beyond the exhibition area's boundaries, with bosses waiting their turn.

Such a sight was exceedingly rare.

The anchors covering the event were exhilarated, broadcasting live as if they had struck gold.

"Oh, look at these big-shot CEOs queuing up to sign contracts."

"Seasoned industry veterans, take a gander at the line snaking outside the exhibition area."

"The price of this black alloy stands at 10,000 yuan per kilogram, equivalent to 10 million yuan per ton. Money appears to have lost its value here."

The scene was electric, and Xin Feiwen was inundated, quickly signing contracts.

Every contract took only three to five minutes to complete. As contracts multiplied, Xin Feiwen would rise, shake hands with the signee, and hand over the duly executed agreement to his assistant.

One, two, three…

Contracts were executed briskly, with more and more orders streaming in.

Amidst this frenzy, Liu Yong's attention was drawn to a blond-haired, blue-eyed foreigner, whom he suspected to be a representative of an overseas alloy manufacturer.

The foreigner's turn swiftly arrived.

Xin Feiwen, fluent in English, produced an English version of the contract and explained, "Mr Gordon, the contract terms are identical to the Chinese version, save for the pricing, which is 15,000 yuan per kilogram."

Gordon, taken aback, protested, "Why is it 15,000 yuan per kilogram for us, while it's 10,000 yuan for everyone else? That's a 50% increase!"
