Negotiation

Ava bought a cup of tea for Henry and said with a smile, "Mr. Tang, Please try the tea."

Henry smelled the tea first, which smelled sweet to him, so he took a sip and immediately the flavor of the tea filled out his mouth. He instantly knew it was one of the best Tieguanyin. This kind of Tieguanyin was also very rare in the market so he wondered how they got their hands on this and why would they go through such trouble to get it for him. is it just for the lands?

"It's really the best Tieguanyin. Thank you Mrs. Sherman." Henry Tang smiled a little and his face looked more relaxed after drinking the tea.

"Mr. Tang, I have heard you are very good at recognizing Authentic tea and an authentic piece of Antique," Ava said showing her curiosity. Henry Tang was known for his keen eyes for authentic Antique pieces, so Ava took the chance and praised him.

"Oh…does antique interest, Mrs. Sherman?"

"I do know a little, especially like the official kilns in the Southern Song Dynasty," Ava said with a calm smile and hid well her lies. In fact, after her talk with Daniel last night she did a little research and memorized as much information about Antique, as she could so she could impress Henry Tang today.

"Really? I didn't know Mrs. Sherman would be interested in antique potteries." Henry Tang put down the teacup and looked at Ava with great interest. After all, not many young people show interest in antiques like song dynasty potteries these days.

"Yes, actually my father is very interested in antiques and he collected many official kilns, that's why I know a little about them."

"Ah…so that's the case. It's good that you young people still show interest in this kind of thing. I have also collected many in my lifetime, it's a pity that I had to sell them not long ago, otherwise, I would love to show them to you."

"Mr. Tang, I think it's OK. Maybe you will have the chance to collect more antiques in the future and treasure them for life. Mr. Tang, may I ask you something about the Land?" Ava looked at Henry with clear eyes.

Henry Tang carefully looked at the woman in front of him, her eyes were clear and pure there was nothing calculative about them, so he couldn't help but say yes to her, "Yes, Mrs. Sherman, what do you want to ask?"

"Why aren't you telling us what Knight International offered you? If you tell us it's going to make you more profit, isn't it? I mean, didn't you say whoever pays you more, you will give them the piece of land? That's exactly what we want, we will give you two million more of what CEO Knight is offering. Wouldn't it be your profit?" Ava and Daniel have already discussed this before coming here. Since the market price of the land was 350 million, Daniel analyzed, Oliver wouldn't offer more than 400 so he was willing to pay 600 million even though it was beyond their project budget. Thus Ava unofficially made the offer.

"It's just a piece of land, why would you pay so much and why should I trust you? I have business ethics, I can't just go back from my word now, can I?" Henry Tang said with half confidence. But he already calculated in his mind if he gets 700 million for this land then he won't have to worry about living a good life anymore.

"Mr. Tang, A&D group and Knight International are business rivals, so it's normal to compete against each other, isn't it? It's just simple business, I can guarantee you, if you call CEO knight right now and tell him that we have been here to talk about the land, he will also raise the price. If you don't believe me try it after we leave. Moreover, if CEO Knight decided to back off, we can still settle to the same amount and I will take the land." Daniel took a sip of tea and said with a smile.

"OK, I'll think about it and let you know." Henry Tang said, even though he was not sure about this but for such an amount of money, he will have to think it through.

Daniel clearly saw Henry's resolution breaking, he was confident he will have a positive answer very soon so he happily stood up and said modestly, "Alright Mr. Tang, we will leave now. Please think about it. I'll wait for your call."

Ava walked along with Daniel and was in a good mood thinking of the positive outcome. Daniel opened the car door for her, and as soon as they both were seated Daniel drove away. Today Daniel was very surprised by the way Ava negotiated with Mr. Tang. He didn't even know she was capable of negotiating so smoothly.

"Ava, aren't you afraid of going against Oliver?" Daniel suddenly asked looking at Ava.

"Well, what else can he do to me? He made me suffer so much, why can't I make him suffer a little?" Ava said with a half-smile. It's not that Ava was not afraid of Oliver's wrath but she was so tolerant of him that she didn't think Oliver would be able to find more ways to torture her. Daniel has done so much for her, if she could help him in any way she definitely will and that's why she helped Daniel with this piece of land. Oliver has everything, he doesn't need more but Daniel has just started to expand his business, and this piece of land can bring fortune to him. That way Ava would feel less burdened and less guilty toward Daniel. If she knew Oliver would still be waiting for her to come back then she wouldn't have entangled Daniel with her three years ago. He probably would have had a good life here if she didn't ask for his help back then. Now if Oliver decided to destroy him for this Ava won't be able to see it.

"But what if Oliver raises the price?"

"Then we will have to give up, we can't offer more than 600 Million. Don't worry Danny, if that happens then we will find more opportunities in the future. I will always support you no matter what." Ava said lightly.

Daniel's heart was full of bubbles to see Ava supporting him so unconditionally and even consoling him. Now he was even more determined to win. Even if he couldn't win this bidding he won't stop and keep competing against Oliver.
