Chapter 262
Elijah on the phone went silent.
Joey awkwardly handed the phone to Violette.
Violette turned on the speaker and placed the phone on the table.
"Mr. Bourne, hello."
Hearing Violette's formal greeting, Mike tried not to laugh, while Joey was speechless.
Then, on the other end of the line, Elijah's even more formal voice came through, "President Dennis,
hello."
Violette was stunned for a moment.
Mike picked up his water glass and took a sip.
Joey also picked up his glass, but it was empty.
"I feel it necessary to explain to you that we haven't been taking advantage of you guys." Violette
adjusted her emotions and spoke calmly, "Our factory was just established not long ago, and we don't
have enough equipment and staff. At the moment, we really can't complete the order quantity you
asked for. Getting merchandise from abroad can guarantee quantity and time, but our prices are higher
abroad than domestically."
Hearing Violette's explanation, Joey's emotions cooled down.
What she said was the same as what Mike had said, but hearing it from Mike made him especially
angry.
"Since this is our first big domestic order, I can offer you the products we get from abroad at domestic
prices." Violette spoke again into the phone.
Mike was shocked.
Why gave Elijah a discount?!
Joey breathed a sigh of relief.
That was more like a gesture of good faith in cooperation!
On the other end of the line, Elijah's cold voice came through again, "I don't like discounted items."
Everyone in the conference room was dumbfounded.
The other meaning of Elijah's words was - I'm not short of money! Giving me a discount? Are you
looking down on me?
Mike clapped and applauded!
"By the way, let me tell you about our payment method. Pay 50% of the cost as a deposit first. The
remaining balance will be paid in full within three days after delivery." Mike spoke up.
Joey was indignant, "Your deposit ratio is too high!"
Purchasing manager: "Yeah! Normally, 30% is already quite high, and you guys are asking for 50%!"
Elijah: "Send me the bill, and I'll pay it all now."
Joey and the purchasing manager were both speechless.
There was no need to send two people to negotiate with the boss's attitude!
He clearly wanted to give Violette money...
Oh!
They got it!
The boss just wanted to give Violette money.
Otherwise, what would she do if her company went bankrupt without orders?
The boss was really racking his brains!
After signing the contract, Violette offered to treat them to dinner.
Joey wasn't in the mood and wanted to leave, but the purchasing manager happily agreed.
"Joey, why are you looking so glum? Buying our drones, and you guys won't lose out." Mike tried to
comfort him, "You'll know when you receive the goods. Our drones have amazing endurance. And our
intelligent system is also a key factor that sets us apart from other brands..."
Joey raised his hand, interrupting his self-praise, "Let's go eat!"
The Bourne Group.
Brandon learned the news that Elijah was going to spend 100 million to buy products from the Dennis Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
Group.
"Elijah, do you really want to buy drones, or do you want to give Violette money?" Brandon couldn't
figure it out, "Didn't you guys break up? You even said the other day when you were drinking that
you're never going to see her again."
Elijah: "When I used to give my employees laptops, phones, and other digital products, why didn't you
question me?"
Brandon nodded, "Seems like Violette's drones are pretty good."
Elijah: "Or did you think AN Tech's performance was fake?"
At that moment, the phone on the table rang.
Elijah glanced at the caller ID, picked up the phone, and answered the call.
Brandon, holding his coffee cup, took the hint and left.
