Chapter 40: Lure the other party into the trap step by step Kovlevich became anxious instantly. He knew in his heart that if he could establish a long-term and stable cooperative relationship with Lin Chenran, then he would usher in a major turning point in his life. Wealth will accumulate rapidly like a snowball, and you can enjoy the money with peace of mind without worrying about being tracked down by certain domestic departments. Thinking of this, Kovlevich's breathing became rapid and greed flashed in his eyes. He asked cautiously: "Lin, my good friend, how much goods do you have?" Lin Chenran smiled slightly and answered confidently: "As long as you need it, no matter how much, I can meet your needs." When Kovlevich heard this, he couldn't help but gasp, his face instantly became solemn, and he showed an expression of disbelief. He originally thought that Lin Chenran was just an insignificant little character, but he didn't expect that the other party could actually say such a thing. Kovlevich frowned, stared at Lin Chenran, and confirmed again: "Is everything you said true? How much do you want?"
Lin Chenran raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a confident smile, and nodded in affirmation without hesitation. Kovlevich looked at Lin Chenran's determined eyes, and his trust in him instantly increased by several levels. Without sufficient background and strength, it is absolutely impossible to obtain such an important trade document between the two countries. "Since this is our first visit to Maoxiong, we only brought 10,000 pairs of trousers, 15,000 long clothes, 25,000 scarves, and a large number of canned fruits." “Come and test the waters and try your luck!!!” Lin Chenran spoke calmly, as if these goods were just a tiny part in his eyes. Kovlevich opened his eyes wide, his face full of disbelief, as if he had seen the most shocking thing in the world. His eyes were fixed on Lin Chenran, as if he wanted to find the answer through the other's eyes. This number was much larger than he had imagined and was completely beyond his expectations. Kovlevich's hands trembled slightly with excitement, and an indescribable excitement surged in his heart. "this" Kovlevich opened his mouth and tried to say something, but found that his throat seemed to be blocked by something and he could only make unclear sounds. His mind was in a mess, filled with anticipation and joy for the future. As expected, he is the one who possesses complete transaction approval documents! The first move was indeed extraordinary! Just as Kovlevich was immersed in joy, suddenly, his face turned gloomy, as if a basin of ice-cold water had poured over him from head to toe. He frowned, and his originally relaxed face instantly twisted into a ball. He realized a serious problem - he did not have enough liquid funds to buy the light industrial goods in Lin Chenran's hands. Kovlevich was in deep entanglement, his mood fluctuating like a roller coaster.
He was not willing to give up this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Kovlevich said with difficulty: "Lin, my friend, how about this? I will pay you 30% of the payment first, and then settle the balance after I sell this batch of goods." His voice became smaller and smaller, and in the end it almost became a mosquito's hum. Apparently Kovlevich himself was not very sure about this proposal. "Kovlevich, although we are friends, it's not that I don't trust you, but the quantity of this batch of goods is quite large." "Besides, I'm a stranger in Mao Xiong." Although Lin Chenran spoke more tactfully, Kovlevich could tell that the other party rejected his proposal. Indeed, not to mention new friends, even best brothers may swallow up this batch of goods. By then, all kinds of strategies will be used: replacing one thing with another, concealing the truth, and disappearing from the face of the earth. Lin Chenran certainly would not agree with Kovlevich's approach. Upon hearing this, Kovlevich's face showed a very painful look. “The cooked duck flew away!!!” "When a big pie falls from the sky, you can't even pick it up yourself." Kovlevich: Ah! This hurts me more than if you killed me. Just when Kovlevich was feeling extremely lost, Lin Chenran's words suddenly brightened his eyes, as if he saw a glimmer of hope. "Kovlevich, even though we are friends, we should still settle accounts with brothers." "If you can provide collateral as a guarantee, then I can consider taking 30% of the payment from you first, and the rest will be settled after you sell this batch of goods." Lin Chenran gave a sly smile. That's right, he was gradually leading Kovlevich into the trap he had carefully laid. "Collateral?" Kovlevich hesitated, and a sense of vigilance rose in his heart. Lin Chenran seemed to see Kovlevich's doubts, smiled slightly, and said softly: "Kovlevich, my good friend, don't be nervous." "If I really had a problem, your country's elite agents, the KGB, would have come to my door long ago." After hearing this, Kovlevich felt a little more at ease. Indeed, if Lin Chenran really had ill intentions, the KGB agents should have taken action long ago. Lin Chenran: KGB? Most of them have already lost their original faith and are directly reselling supplies in Eastern Europe. Thinking of this, Kovlevich couldn't help but become interested in Lin Chenran's proposal. When Lin Chenran saw that Kovlevich was interested in making a move, he was delighted and knew that there was hope. He decided to strike while the iron was hot and further introduced himself to Kovlevich: "I am Lin Chenran, the director of the 077 Mechanical Military Factory of Yan Country."
“Our factory has now been successfully transformed into a private enterprise, focusing on producing a variety of high-quality engineering vehicles.” "If you have paid attention to the international civilian engineering vehicle market, I believe you must have heard of our factory's star product - the Type 59 civilian engineering vehicle!" After hearing Lin Chenran's self-introduction, a trace of confusion flashed across Kovlevich's face, as if he was trying hard to recall something. Suddenly, his eyes lit up and he said excitedly: "Oh, it's you! I remember, I seem to have heard of the Type 59 civilian engineering vehicle before." So that's how it is! No wonder he could become the head of a third-tier military factory at such a young age, his background and connections are so strong! Kovlevich sighed in his heart, and at the same time felt a sense of relief. He knew very well that cooperating with such a person with a strong background and backing would undoubtedly bring him huge benefits. Kovlevich was very eager to open up a "trader" business of their own with Lin Chenran. If this path is successful, it will bring him endless wealth. And this wealth will accumulate rapidly like a snowball, allowing him to live a rich life. However, Kovlevich knew clearly that he must not cross the red line no matter what - state secrets must not be leaked. Only by keeping this bottom line can he enjoy all this with peace of mind. When he retires in the future, he believes that he will be able to live an extremely comfortable life in China with the huge wealth he has accumulated. Thinking of this, Kovlevich finally calmed down. He told himself secretly: "Starving kills the timid, and eating too much kills the bold." "Let's do it, brothers!!!" If Lin Chenran knew what Kovlevich was thinking, he would definitely sneer: Stick to the bottom line? Once you are corrupted by money, you will not be able to stick to the bottom line in your heart.
