After the woman changed her clothes, she closed the closet door and turned the doorknob.
This is a very strange action. The wardrobe is already closed. Why is she twisting the doorknob?
But just when Edgar Austin was filled with curiosity, the large wardrobe suddenly moved to the side, revealing the door of an alloy safe.
Edgar Austin was a little surprised, "It turns out there is a safe hidden behind the closet. It is probably where her valuables and cash are stored."
Edgar Austin did not see through the safe. Due to the material and thickness of the safe, it would be difficult to see through it and it would also consume a lot of his energy. Spending so much effort to look at a pile of cash or gold bars is obviously not worth the gain.
The woman took two steps back, grabbed the briefcase that was sitting on a chair, and then returned to the safe.
Edgar Austin's heart moved, and his left eye moved to the briefcase in the woman's hand. The briefcase was made of leather. Considering Edgar Austin's current strength, it was actually no different from a layer of paper. His left eye penetrated it instantly, and the contents of the briefcase came into his sight.
There are several things in the briefcase, including a document, a passport, a gold Parker pen, and a patent application.
The first thing Edgar Austin saw was the patent application, which happened to be facing him. That was a patent application for an automatic surfboard. The applicant for the patent is Liu Ying, who is the legal representative of Yuedong Sports Equipment Company.
Under the patent application was a passport, which also had Liu Ying's name on it, and her photo, which matched what he saw of her. There is no doubt that she is the "Sister Liu" mentioned by Chi Jingqiu.
Under the passport is the thick document, which contains the design drawings of the automatic surfboard, the parameters of various accessories, etc. The content is very large. However, no matter how large the content is, it is difficult to escape Edgar Austin's eyes. His sight is like a greedy snake, eating the top layer of paper, and then eating the bottom layer of paper. In less than fifteen seconds, He "ate up" all the paper in that document.
The door of the safe opened, Liu Ying put the briefcase in, closed the door of the safe, and then restored the wardrobe to its original position. Finally, she left her room and headed for the stairs.
Edgar Austin withdrew his gaze and thought to himself: "It turns out that the parts Liu Ying customized to Daleyza are used on automatic surfboards. This kind of surfboard is driven by electricity and can swim freely even in windless waters." , the market prospect is definitely very good. She is still applying for a patent. This novel product has not yet been put on the market and is still in the trial production and preparation stages. If I can get her order and establish a cooperative relationship with her, Then I will process all the parts for this kind of automatic surfboard in the future.”
Knowing the other party's business secrets will give him confidence in the subsequent negotiations.
He reached out and pressed the doorbell, then waited quietly.
The nanny opened the door and looked at Edgar Austin warily, "Who are you looking for?"
Edgar Austin smiled and said politely: "I'm looking for Mr. Liu."
The nanny didn't get out of the way, "Who are you? Do you have an appointment?"
Edgar Austin said: "I called Mr. Liu just now and she asked me to come here to find her. Please let me know."
At this time, Liu Ying's voice came from the living room, "Let him come in."
The nanny then took out a pair of plastic shoe covers from the shoe cabinet and handed them to Edgar Austin.
Edgar Austin put the shoe covers on his shoes, then walked in with his bag.
Liu Ying looked at Edgar Austin and then said, "Please sit down."
"Mr. Liu, I'm sorry to bother you."Edgar Austin took the initiative to extend his hands to shake Liu Ying's hand.
Liu Ying did not extend her hand to shake Edgar Austin hand, but said lightly: "I don't need to do this. I just applied hand cream, so it's inconvenient. You can sit down."
Edgar Austin retracted his hand in embarrassment and sat opposite Liu Ying.
In Liu Ying's view, Edgar Austin was just an errand boy for Daleyza, and there was no need for her to lower herself to talk to him. No handshake, not even a glass of water for the nanny to pour for Edgar Austin.
Edgar Austin didn't care about this. He opened the canvas bag he brought, took out the processed parts, and then placed the processed parts on the canvas bag for Liu Ying to inspect.
Seeing the processed parts placed on the coffee table, a smile suddenly appeared on Liu Ying's face, "Daleyza is really efficient in doing things. She brought the samples over so quickly. By the way, why isn't Daleyza here?"
Edgar Austin said: "I don't know."
"Don't know?" Liu Ying looked at Edgar Austin with strange eyes.
Edgar Austin smiled and said, "Mr. Liu, take a look at this set of processed parts first."
Liu Ying's eyes returned to the workpiece. She reached out to pick it up and held it in front of her eyes for observation.
Edgar Austin then took out a piece of printing paper and a micrometer from the canvas bag and handed them to Liu Ying, while saying: "Mr. Liu, this is processed according to your requirements, both in terms of materials and precision. Meet your requirements. You can simply measure it now. If you think the micrometer is not accurate, you can ask your company's experts to check it. I guarantee that there is no problem with its quality."
Liu Ying said: "I know a little bit about mechanical processing. This part is good, there should be no problem. By the way, who processed this?"
Edgar Austin said: "It's me."
"Is it you?" Liu Ying's eyes fell on Edgar Austin's face, with a hint of surprise in her eyes. "You are so young, is it impossible?"Edgar Austin said, "This is indeed processed by me. If you don't I believe you can go to my studio and I can do it again for you.”
"Wait a minute." Liu Ying interrupted Edgar Austin, "Daleyza said she has a very powerful friend. Is she talking about you?"
Edgar Austin nodded, "She's talking about me. My name is Edgar Austin, and my studio is called Thunder Horse Studio. I have processed very important high-precision machining parts for Dongfang Heavy Industry, and I have also worked for Beechcraft." The company has processed parts. Our quality and reputation are guaranteed.”
Liu Ying looked straight at Edgar Austin, and suddenly smiled again after a while, "I understand, I asked Daleyza to place an order, and Daleyza asked you to process it, but you bypassed Daleyza and came to me, thinking Sign a contract with me directly, is that right?”
Edgar Austin also smiled, "You give me three hundred and one, and she gives me two hundred and six. After completing the order, she will take 8% of my commission. My workers and I can't make as much money as her even though we work so hard." .So, why don’t I talk to you directly? Mr. Liu, you are a very smart person, you should be able to understand why I do this."
"Little brother, it's not good for you to do this, it's against the rules." Liu Ying said.
"What's wrong with the rules?"
"I placed an order with Daleyza. She plays the role of an agent in this business. If you want to make money, you can only make money from her, not me." Liu Ying said.
Edgar Austin was silent for a moment before saying, "I understand. You placed the order with her because of her position in Dongfang Heavy Industries. Can she speak in front of Chairman Ning?"
Liu Ying didn't say yes or no, she just looked at Edgar Austin.
Edgar Austin continued: "Mr. Liu, you are interested in the future cooperation relationship, but I can tell you that Dongfang Heavy Industries is currently negotiating with the Veronica family's Wanxiang Group for a large-scale wind power station project. Your company's order I'm afraid they still look down upon you. Even if Dongfang Heavy Industries is willing to take your small order, they may not do their best. What should you do if you wait for it but don't have the parts to assemble your product?"
Liu Ying's eyes hesitated.
Edgar Austin added: "We are different, we have technology and talents, we are an emerging team, and we just meet your needs. In fact, as far as your product is concerned, all parts can be processed at our place. Mr. Liu, there is no need for you to go to a large state-owned enterprise like Oriental Heavy Industries, it is a very wise choice to go to us."
Liu Ying said: "Little brother, we have just met for the first time, but you want to talk to me about such an important matter. Apart from your name, I know nothing about you. What kind of studio is yours?" I don’t understand either, tell me, why should I believe you?”
Edgar Austin said: "You can give me an order of 10,000 yuan. After I complete it, you can give me a new order."
Liu Ying smiled and said: "Little brother, are you kidding me? When has my company ever done business like this? Do you think it's just a child's game of house?"
Such words lacked respect, and Edgar Austin felt a little uncomfortable, but he could still hold it back. He wanted to win an order from Yuedong Sports Equipment Company, which would be of great help to his career. He couldn't give up just because he felt a little uncomfortable. He lowered his stance again, "Mr. Liu, I just provide a plan that can prove my sincerity and the strength of my studio. If you are not satisfied, I will provide another plan. You can think about it again and we can cooperate." If so, it’s actually a win-win situation.”
"Let's do this. I'll call Daleyza. I'll talk to her and then get back to you, okay?" Liu Ying put the parts that Edgar Austin had processed personally back on the canvas bag, along with the micrometer and the ones printed by Edgar Austin. The information was pushed in front of Edgar Austin.
This means seeing off guests.
She said she would reply after contacting Daleyza, but she didn't even bother to ask for Edgar Austin's contact information. Her attitude was actually very clear. She would not cooperate with a small person like Edgar Austin.
Edgar Austin slowly put away the workpiece and stood up, "That's it, goodbye Mr. Liu."
"Well, I won't give it away." Liu Ying responded lightly, then got up and walked towards the child playing with toys, "Oh, mommy's baby, come to mommy and let mommy give it a hug."
The child looked back at Liu Ying, then went back to playing with his Transformers.
Edgar Austin took two steps and then stopped. He took out his mobile phone, dialed a number at random, and then said on the mobile phone: "Hey, Kaiden An, you contact that sports equipment company immediately and tell them that I have It’s a great idea to give them, but we have to make their parts.”
There was actually no Kaiden Barlow's voice on the phone, only the sound of the system prompting that the number was empty.
But just with this call, Liu Ying, who had just walked to her son, suddenly turned around and looked directly at Edgar Austin.
Edgar Austin continued: "What idea? Automatic surfboard, isn't this idea great enough? Tell them that I still have a processed transmission part in my hand... Okay, okay, I'll be right back."
After saying that, Edgar Austin pretended to hang up the phone and strode towards the door without even looking at Liu Ying.
"Wait a minute -" Liu Ying suddenly ran over and blocked Edgar Austin's way.
Edgar Austin frowned and looked at her, "What do you want to do?"
Just now he begged Liu Ying to cooperate in a low voice, but now he didn't even bother to call Mr. Liu.
"You can't leave!" Liu Ying looked very nervous, "You have to say something clearly before you can leave!"
Edgar Austin sneered, "What a joke, I'm not your prisoner or your subordinate. Do I need to explain anything to you?"
"You--" Liu Ying suddenly became angry on the spot. There had been a time when she, the dignified Mr. Liu, had been so angry!
