BXBX NOVEL Chapter 816: Daylight Robbery
“…” Ruby looked at Connor and fell silent.
Although one billion dollars was shocking, Ruby was still willing to give it up compared to her father’s life.
Therefore, Ruby gritted her teeth and said, “Okay, one billion it is. I can give it to you, but I only have a little cash now. Can I transfer it to you?”
“Of course!” Connor nodded, then took out his bank card and placed it on the table.
Everyone looked at Connor, extremely shocked.
No one had expected Ruby to agree so readily.
Diana was very familiar with herbs. Although Red Sun Ginseng was precious, a single Red Sun Ginseng couldn’t be sold for one billion. No matter how wealthy a person was, they would not buy it at this price.
However, the Red Sun Ginseng could save Ruby’s father’s life. Thus, no matter how much Connor wanted, as long as Ruby could pay, she could only grit her teeth and agree.
Therefore, this deal was very cost-effective for Connor.
Before this, Diana was somewhat reluctant when she knew Connor would sell the Red Sun Ginseng.
But now, she felt that it was fortunate that Connor had sold it to Ruby. If it were someone else, selling it for such a price would be impossible.
Ted looked at Ruby helplessly.
Even if Ruby had treated Connor better, Connor would never have asked for such a price.
Ruby took a deep breath as she looked at Connor’s bank card. Then, she took out her phone and made a call.
A few minutes later, Ruby put down the phone and whispered to Connor, “I just finished talking to our company’s finance department on the phone. I’ll be able to transfer the money to you later. Can you give me the Red Sun Ginseng now?”
“I still have a third condition that I haven’t mentioned…”Connor glanced at Ruby and said expressionlessly.
Ruby’s eyes flashed with a trace of helplessness as she asked Connor hesitantly, “All right, what is it?”
“My third condition is that I want ten percent of the Yandell Family’s shares!”
After hearing Connor’s third condition, everyone gaped in shock.
No one had expected Connor to make such a request!
Previously, Connor said he wanted to take those herbs from Ruby and sell the Red Sun Ginseng for one billion. To ordinary people, these demands were already too much.
However, Ruby had no other choice. She needed the Red Sun Ginseng now, so she could only grit her teeth and agree.
However, no one expected Connor’s third condition to be ten percent of the Yandell Family’s shares!
“Connor, are you crazy?” After a short moment of shock, Ruby stood up and shouted at Connor.
Ruby’s suppressed emotions finally exploded. She felt that Connor had gone too far. He was bullying her!
Even Ted looked at Connor with a strange expression. He felt it was already good enough for Ruby to agree to the two conditions Connor proposed. However, no one would agree to the third condition!
“Ten percent of the Yandell Family’s shares. This is my third condition. If you agree, I can give you the Red Sun Ginseng now. But if you disagree, I will return the medicinal herbs and one billion in cash. Think about it carefully…” Connor said calmly.
“You’re crazy. You must be crazy!” Ruby shouted agitatedly, then continued, “Do you know what ten percent of our Yandell Family’s shares represent? Who do you think you are? Why should I give you ten percent of the shares?”
Ruby’s family was the most prominent in Southeast Asia. They had countless companies under them, and they were involved in all kinds of industries. Even if they were to estimate conservatively, the market value of the Yandell Family’s company was more than 100 billion!
If Connor obtained ten percent of the shares of the Yandell Family, it would be equivalent to getting tens of billions. This was why everyone felt Connor’s request was overboard.
After all, Ruby had already given Connor one billion in cash, and now Connor was asking for shares. This was literally daylight robbery.
“Connor, it’s impossible for me to agree to your condition. It would be best to find out what this ten percent share means. I advise you to change your condition!” Ruby growled at Connor.
“I won’t change my terms. I want ten percent of the shares. If you agree, I’ll give you the Red Sun Ginseng. If you disagree, you can leave now!” Connor sat firm and said calmly.
After hearing Connor’s threat, Ruby was stunned. Her chest trembled slightly, not knowing what to say. She never thought that Connor would be so determined.
Diana looked at Connor, her admiration for him was beyond words.
She felt that Connor was business-smart.
Not only did he get one billion in cash, but he also wanted ten percent of the Yandell Family’s shares.
If Ruby agreed, it would be unimaginable!
Most importantly, Connor’s attitude could not have been more firm, giving Ruby no room to bargain.
However, Diana was more or less worried. After all, if he angered Ruby, wouldn’t it be all for naught?
“Impossible. I won’t give you ten percent of the shares. Don’t even think about it…” Ruby looked at Connor and shook her head.
“Since you cannot accept the third condition, you can leave now…” Connor looked at Ruby and said.
“Connor, aren’t you going a little too far? How can you do business like this?” Ruby shouted at Connor.
“I’m sorry, but this is how I do business!” Connor smiled at Ruby.
