Chapter Fifty-Seven: Transaction

  After coming downstairs, Song Jian tied an apron around his waist and entered the kitchen. In the Great Song Dynasty era, as a prestigious imperial physician, he would never have entered the kitchen. However, in this modern age, entering the kitchen has become the standard for being a good man. Song Jian didn't want to be a bad man, so he took the initiative to enter the kitchen.

  Xu Si was peeling an apple when he saw Song Jian come in. Xu Si asked softly, "What did Grandpa say just now?"

  Song Jian swept a glance over the prepared dishes and began to move his hands, saying, "Nothing much, just chat with me."

  "Is it just a chat?" Xǔ Sī asked, apparently, Xǔ Sī had also guessed what Xǔ Hǎi Tiān was going to say.

  Song Jian nodded and said, "Yes, oh, also told me to resign, but I said I like the promising profession of being a driver, unless you fire me, I won't resign. Then your grandfather encouraged me to do well."

  Song Jian's words were extremely casual.

  Xu Si couldn't help but curve up a smile at the corner of his mouth, and his already handsome face became even more like that of an immortal.

  "Hmm, generally speaking, I won't fire you," Xu Si said softly, then lowered her head and continued to peel the apple.

  Actually, Song Jian really wanted to ask why, is a year ago's engagement so important, can it make Xu Si willing to pay for this life and accompany him for his whole life? However, Song Jian naturally wouldn't dare to ask.

  Xu Si lowered her head, but in her heart, she felt a great relief, knowing that Song Jian would not agree to leave her. A strange feeling spread throughout her body, making her ears turn red.

  Song Jian quickly cooked a lion's head, then took up the spoon again and made a famous Shandong dish, spicy chicken.

  The Sichuan and Lu cuisine methods of La Zi Ji are quite different, but undoubtedly, the flavor of La Zi Ji in the Shandong cuisine system is even better.

  Fragrance fills the air.

  Xu Si was wearing an apron, adjusting the fruit salad on one side while helping Song Jian with the other.

  Xu Haitian slowly came down from the study and sat in the living room. His old eyes involuntarily glanced towards the kitchen.

  "Could it be that these two little rascals have already had a physical relationship?" Suddenly, such an idea popped into Xu Haitian's mind. As soon as this thought emerged, he was startled and quickly pulled over Xia Lin, asking repeatedly until he knew that Xu Si and Song Jian were just in a superior-subordinate relationship, only then did he let out a long sigh of relief.

  Xia Lin hopped around serving dishes and food, very busy, four people sat down together, starting to eat.

  Song Jian treated Xu Haitian as an ordinary old man, and was not restrained, showing off his usual gluttonous style, eating twice the amount of food that the other three people had eaten in total.

  Xu Haitian stared at Song Jian in shock, then coughed and asked: "Little Song, how much savings do you have now?"

  Song Jian looked at Xu Haitian.

  Xu Haitian said, "It's like this, you're better now and can't always stay in Xu Si's house, right? So, I want to ask you, how much savings do you have? I can help you rent a new room."

  Song Jian thought for a moment and said seriously: "There are still over 200,000 yuan in deposits, but the debt is 10 million yuan."

  Xu Si heard this and kicked Song Jian under the table with his foot.

  "What!" Xu Haitian stared at Song Jian in shock, just wanting to scold him a bit and talk about the housing issue. A man wearing a black suit walked in and whispered a few words into Xu Haitian's ear.

  Xu Haitian's face turned ugly, he put down his bowl and chopsticks, saying: "Let's go, we're going now."

  He and Xu Si, Xia Lin simply said hello, Xu Haitian has gone in a hurry.

  Song Jian knew that the Xu Group seemed to be in some turmoil indeed.

  But these have nothing to do with Song Jian's affairs.

  Xu Si watched as his grandfather's figure hastily departed, and let out a faint sigh, saying: "Originally thought that my Si Yuan Tian Ran Technology Co., Ltd. would make a lot of money, didn't expect after operating for two years, profits are still less than 500,000."

  Xia Lin smiled and said, "Sister, as long as I don't lose money, it's fine."

  Song Jian swept away the remaining dishes and said, "This one-stroke white project should be able to make some money. Hmm, maybe it can even solve your grandfather's troubles?"

  Xu Si was taken aback and smiled wryly, "The crisis of the Xu Group can't be solved with just a wave of the hand. My grandfather said that at least 1.5 billion in funding is needed. Our company's total assets, including real estate, are only around 400 million. How can this project possibly make a profit of 1.5 billion?"

  Song Jian thought for a moment and didn't say anything.

  After dinner, Song Jian returned to his room and took another look at the mobile information disk in his hand.

  Turn on the computer and browse through the contents of the mobile hard drive, which is filled with a lot of content, densely packed, even for Song Jian, a master's degree holder in chemical engineering, it looks a bit overwhelming.

  But Song Jiancai didn't care about these things. After backing up the information, he took out his mobile phone, thought for a moment, and dialed a number.

  The phone had just rung when a lazy voice came from the other end.

  "Song Jian? Hehe, I just woke up from my nap and you're already calling me." On the other end of the line, Park Tae-hui sat up on the couch, her silky nightgown slipping down her slender figure.

  "I've got the gene sequence," Song Jian said directly.

  Park Tae-hui's face suddenly turned red, but she didn't open her mouth immediately. Instead, she was silent for a second before chuckling and saying: "Congratulations to Song Jian, the little handsome guy! Oh, but this gene sequence actually doesn't have much use. As a graduate student at the University of California, you should know that it's just a gene sequence..."

  "Cut to the chase, state your terms. If we can accept them, we'll make a deal. If not, I'll just hand it over to Feilu or Glanck Biopharma instead." Song Jian said in a deep voice, interrupting Pu Tianhui's words.

  It's clear that Park Tae-hui is trying to lowball, wanting Song Jian to know that the gene sequence in his hands is useless, but Song Jian directly threw out two other top-notch pharmaceutical companies in the world.

  Park Tae-hui didn't get scared immediately, she chuckled and said: "Song Jian, don't be too clever for your own good. You should know that Fei Rui company is the one who harmed your parents, and as for Ge Lan Ke company, they have always had an unclear relationship with the underworld. Do you think you can gain anything good from them? If you're not careful, you'll end up like your parents."

  Song Jian smiled slightly and said, "You don't need to think about it anymore. I'm very clear about the value of this mobile information disk in my hand. You make an offer, remember, you only have one chance. If your offer is not satisfactory, I will immediately contact other pharmaceutical companies. Oh, by the way, I'm still being quite good to you, at least you have priority over other pharmaceutical companies."

  Park Tae-hui gritted her silver teeth and stood up, she didn't expect Song Jian to not give herself a chance to haggle at all, only once, which means Song Jian forced Park Tae-hui to reveal her trump card all at once.

  "Hmph, you're ruthless!" Park Tae-hui hummed a sentence, but she also knew that Song Jian had indeed given herself priority.

  "If I get this genetic information, I'll make sure it's one-of-a-kind!" Park Tae-hui emphasized.

  Song Jiandao said: "Of course, don't worry, you big companies, I dare not mess with you. I guarantee that if our transaction is successful, I will definitely not sell this information to others."

  "Alright!" Park Tae-hui took out his phone and walked to a file cabinet, quickly pulling out a document. He opened it and said in a low voice, "Listen, this is our company's bottom line. We can only offer 500 million in cash, plus a 1% profit-sharing dividend."

  Song Jian thought for a moment, knowing that Park Tae-hui would not retreat much further. The gene sequence was important, but obtaining the gene sequence did not necessarily mean that cancer drugs could be manufactured. If other pharmaceutical companies also cracked the cancer self-destruction gene sequence during this period, then the information in his hands would be worthless.

  Soldiers value speed, and business is a battlefield; 50 million is actually equivalent to a gamble.

  As for the 1% profit distribution, Song Jian didn't take it to heart. This thing, put simply, is just a rumor. Profit distribution requires making a profit first, and from gene sequencing to marketing effective gene drugs, at least seven or eight years are needed. In other words, only after seven or eight years can Song Jian get the dividend. Moreover, profits are generated after deducting costs, and how much cost was spent on developing the drug is up to the other company to decide, so it's also up to them to decide how much dividend Song Jian can get, and outsiders have no way of judging.

  50 million, at least it can solve Song Jian's current predicament.

  Song Jiandao said, "Alright, it's a deal. However, I need to ensure the confidentiality of this transaction, which means that apart from you, I don't want anyone else to know that the genetic sequence information in your hands came from mine. You understand, this is not beneficial for me, nor is it beneficial for you. By keeping my safety intact, I am also preserving the uniqueness of that piece of information."

  "Hmm, I see!" Park Tae-hui hummed.

  "I'll send you my card number, you transfer the money first," said Song Jian.

  Park Tae-hui didn't worry that Song Jian would run away, seeing the transaction was successful, she also let out a sigh of relief and restored her usual coquettish attitude. "Tsk tsk, Song Jian, 500 million won, I think your card must be an ordinary permission bank card, I'm afraid it can't transfer such a large amount of money at once, do you want me to go to the bank counter for this mere 500 million won?"

  Song Jian smiled and said, "Don't worry, my card privileges have been upgraded. You can transfer the money online directly. Oh, after the payment is made, we'll discuss further matters."

  "Hmm, alright, you go check the accounts in ten minutes." Park Tae-hui hung up the phone.

  "Yes!" Park Tae-hui pumped her fist in excitement, "Roh Kyo Pharmaceutical Group, this is your chance!"

  Soon, Park Tae-hui finished the transfer and then ordered her subordinates to draft a contract. After finishing these tasks, she picked up her phone and made an appointment with Song Jian at their usual meeting place.
