Chapter 91 The person you’ve been waiting for is finally here

Jin Ziming began to embed these gravels into the dust of the road, the sand in the forest, the soil in the cave, and the sand in the wilderness to prepare for various combat environments in the future.

When he returned to the branch, Sun Xia came over and said to him:

"Zi Ming, your partner is back, I will take you to meet him."

Lu Rongfei is a middle-aged man of medium height, with a darker complexion than the bronzed Jin Ziming.

As soon as Sun Xia introduced him, he took Jin Ziming's hand and said with a smile:

"Zi Ming, I've heard of you for a long time. This time Lao Gao is finally willing to match me with a capable partner. The one last time gave me a hard time."

"Senior Brother Lu, I am the person who was sent for investigation. Did you remember the wrong person?" Jin Ziming said with a smile.

"Just call me Lao Lu. What are you talking about about Shi Yun losing the order? It's not your fault. I'm very familiar with the people in Shiyun City. Qing Yumen has already made arrangements with Lao Li. You will definitely lose that order.

undoubtedly."

"Lao Lu, you are senior. Please teach me more in the future. I will work hard and hope I won't hold you back."

"Well, you and I will go to Xianglin City tomorrow. There is a big project there."

Then he patted Jin Ziming's shoulder and comforted:

"Don't worry, the risk is not big. It's not a new mine, it's a renovation project of an old mine."

The next day, the two took an airship to Xianglin City and once again enjoyed the strange mountain scenery shrouded in clouds and mist.

Looking down, the fog is hazy, misty, like blue smoke, like silk ribbons, soft and delicate.

When the wind blows, the originally calm clouds and mist begin to roll, scatter and gather together, taking on all kinds of weird shapes.

Then it was dispersed by the wind, rolled up, and floated, embarking on the next journey of transformation.

The Ribbon of Mist may be the key to the secret of Mist. To create a "Fog Sword", you first need to understand this section.

After arriving at Xianglin, Lao Lu introduced the project situation to him:

"Juxing Sect has a large high-level spiritual stone mine in the mountainous area north of Xianglin City. We have been operating there for thirteen years and have not finished mining yet, but the equipment is old.

Recently, a gold jadeite mine and a medium-grade spiritual stone mine were discovered nearby. There are many mineral points, and a comprehensive solution is needed to reconstruct the old mine and two new mines.

That would be very complicated, and the branch wants to use Zongmen’s newly launched 32-mode mining host to replace the original 16-mode.”

When they came to the station at Juxingmen, Lu Rongfei, like Old Shen, greeted everyone with a smile.

Jin Ziming is keenly aware that the customer's smile has different meanings. In the teacher's case, it is a courtesy, but here it is a friend.

Lao Lu took him around to visit and grandly launched the "rising star", which made Jin Ziming feel ashamed.

After the survey was completed, he went to live in a quiet courtyard outside the city, where he could work on the complex configuration and plan with peace of mind.

On the afternoon of the third day, after Jin Ziming finished the work, Lao Lu came back, looking unhappy.

"Lao Lu, what's wrong?"

“The ‘flies’ from Qingyu Gate came, clamoring to participate in this project, saying that as long as they were given the opportunity to quote, they would show their utmost sincerity.

Judging from the posture, he either really wants to compete with us, or he is here to bargain wildly.

Since it is an old project to be renovated and there is no bidding, Juxing Sect will negotiate the bids with our two groups and submit the plan and price three days later." Lao Lu sighed.

"If Qingyu Gate needs to replace our old equipment, the cost will be very high."

"Yes, Zi Ming, please check the plan. In addition to replacing the host, try to reuse the other nodes as much as possible. This can reduce the quotation."

After Jin Ziming revised it, the two continued to discuss.

"Based on my relationship with Xianglin, I won't give you just one quotation opportunity. Let's lower the price slightly to test the customer and Qingyumen."

Jin Ziming was frightened by this trick and asked quickly:

"Lao Lu, how sure are you?"

"At least 90%."

“It’s good to have such a high degree of confidence.

Lao Lu, let me ask you, if the other party bargains, which part of the price do we most want to keep?"

"Of course that's the discount rate that guarantees the terminal equipment. In this way, even if the price of this order is bleak, we can earn back the spiritual stones when we expand or renovate in the future."

"Yes, a host can be used for a long time and covers a wide area. Long-term profitability still depends on terminal equipment.

Lao Lu, I suggest that you use the opportunity of the first quotation to shift the attention of Juxing Sect to the mainframe.

On the one hand, we focus on recommending the powerful performance of the 32-mode new console.

On the other hand, quote the host at the normal price or even at a higher price.

As for the terminal equipment discount we wanted to guarantee, it was actually a little lower than last time."

"You mean to use the host to attract firepower, and from the next round onwards, we will openly discuss the price of the host and covertly guarantee the price of the end product?"

"Yes, the sect has a preferential policy on the exchange of old machines for new ones.

If we negotiate like this, we don’t need to apply for special business from the headquarters, and we can keep the price for future expansion, so why not?”

Lu Rongfei nodded slightly and finally agreed to this strategy.

Three days later, as expected, Qingyumen quoted a low price.

The total price of the other party's newly built system was slightly lower than that of Lingyun's old one. Lu and Jin were called to Xianglin's station.

"Rong Fei, your offer this time is not sincere." Great Elder Long Qingshan said in a deep voice.

"Elder Long, you know very well that the Qingyu Sect is here to make us lose money. Our products and technology are better than theirs. It is impossible to jump in even though we know it is a trap. We will lose blood in that way."

"I don't care whether there is vicious competition between your two families. I only care about the interests of the Star Gathering Sect."

"If Qingyumen replaces our equipment, how much time will it take?

Moreover, there is a lot of manpower and material investment, which cannot be reflected in the quotation at all.”

"Rongfei, you don't need to think about these issues. Let's focus on the price itself." The second elder spoke.

"Elders, I also hope that the Star Gathering Sect can obtain the latest and best technologies and products with the least amount of spiritual stones.

Of course, we also understand the requirements for stationing there. Zi Ming and I made a special business application yesterday.

The Leiming branch has specifically agreed to discount the price of the most expensive new-generation console in half based on the last quotation, so that the total price is reduced.

You see, we are very sincere, right?" Lu Rongfei talked eloquently.

The two elders looked at each other and said:

"You guys should go out first and we'll discuss it internally."

That night, Lao Lu learned of the outcome of the Juxing Sect’s discussion:

They are very interested in the new 32-model console and are too lazy to change partners, but they still feel that the total price is too high and want to bargain.

If the Lingyun Sect disagrees, they will divide the bids and hand over the renovation of the old mine to the Lingyun Sect, while handing over the two new mines to the Qingyu Sect.

In fact, this afternoon, Jin Ziming confirmed with the branch that due to the huge scale of this project, 32-mode mainframes can be given away for free.

But in order to make it look like they were "applying" to the headquarters for special business, the two stayed up for an extra day before reporting the final price:

"The new system is all free of charge, but in view of the huge cost burden, in order to ensure the quality of construction and mining, this mining area is required to maintain the discount rate of this contract unchanged when adding or replacing terminal equipment in the next five years."

After discussion with the Juxing Gate, they finally agreed to this plan.

"Zi Ming, it's my first time to work together. It's a pleasure." Lao Lu said cheerfully.

"Lao Lu, you are very capable and have taught me a lot."

"Let's stop flattering each other."

After Jin Ziming returned to the branch and informed Hall Master Wang and Lao Xiao of the good news, he was about to ask for leave to practice, but Xu Leilei came to see him unexpectedly.

Seeing the healthy blush on the beauty's snow-white and delicate cheeks, Jin Ziming, who was in a good mood, couldn't help but praise:

"Leilei, you are rosy today and look very attractive."

"Tch, go ahead and trick those little girls who have just debuted. Sister, I am already immune." Xu Leilei said with disdain.

"Oh, believe it or not."

"Someone is looking for you outside, claiming to be from the Wang family. He was here the day before yesterday, but you were not there.

That person said that he was here to take over his life, but he is still doing so, Jin Ziming, it seems that you are quite impressive outside?"

Xu Leilei glanced at him suspiciously.

Jin Ziming said in his heart, "It's finally here" and immediately replied:

"Okay, I'll go out to meet him."

When I came to the door, I saw an elegant-looking, slightly embarrassed young man standing there. His cultivation was at the middle stage of the Golden Core.

Xu Leilei pointed at Jin Ziming and said:

"Well, this is the person you are looking for."
