Chapter 1074 Not enough money
Chapter 1074 Not enough money
The crew members were really in a dilemma at this time.
The tasks assigned to him by the company could not be sold because he arbitrarily raised the prices.
On the other hand, when the captain saw that he might not be able to collect the freight, he began to show his aggressive side.
If these sailors who live on the sea all year round really want to throw someone into the sea, it is really possible.
Faced with the captain's threats and the Huo family's growing distance, the crew member ultimately couldn't withstand the pressure.
"Don't go, don't go. I have better equipment here and I can sell it to you."
The Huo family had already taken Chief Engineer Gao off the cargo ship and arrived at the dock.
Chief Engineer Gao looked unhappy. He was full of hope when he came here, thinking that he could really buy an industrial machine tool.
If domestic machinery factories could really buy industrial mother machines, they would surely experience a boom.
As processing capabilities become more powerful, more products can be produced.
With these foundations, how far away can large-scale export earnings be?
Unfortunately, things did not go as planned. The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.
"Chief Engineer Gao, it's okay. They are not the only ones that can produce industrial machine tools.
It doesn't matter if it doesn't work this time. I'll ask around again. As long as someone is willing to pay a high price, there will be someone willing to sell it even if there is a ban.
Fortunately, you came in person this time, so we didn't lose anything anyway."
Although Chief Engineer Gao was in a low mood, he still nodded reluctantly.
It was indeed true if he thought about it in a positive way, but he was unwilling to accept it.
It's so hard to meet a leader who understands technology and thinks so highly of him.
He didn't really care about what others said about him, after all, it was a fact that he was lagging behind others.
However, he failed to complete the task assigned by Chen Changan, which made him feel that he had let Chen Changan down.
It seems that this trip to Hong Kong Island is destined to return empty-handed.
Looking at the Huo family members constantly comforting him, Chief Engineer Gao forced a smile.
No matter what, this matter has nothing to do with the Huo family.
They have been busy for me and have also treated me well. No matter what, I can't show them a bad face.
Just as Chief Engineer Gao was about to say some polite words and send a message to Chen Changan about the specific situation tonight, he heard shouts again from behind him.
I heard that the other party has better equipment. Even if it is not an industrial machine, it is almost at that level.
Chief Engineer Gao's face lit up with joy, and then he felt Mr. Huo secretly pulling him.
Chief Engineer Gao reacted immediately and realized that he was really not good at doing business.
"Keep walking, don't look back, and ignore him."
As Mr. Huo finished speaking, no one in the group, including Xiujuan, paid any attention to the shouting behind them.
Those who were able to board the ship with the Huo family were all carefully selected.
Even someone like Xiujuan has seen many ups and downs.
After the people on the boat shouted, they did not get any response from the Huo family. They turned around and saw the captain's ferocious face again, and they became even more panicked.
This batch of equipment contains a large number of items, and he has no connections in the East. Once the Huo family decides not to buy it, he really doesn't know who to sell it to.
There is a chance to sell it if it is shipped to other countries, but on the one hand, the price will definitely not be high enough, and on the other hand, the captain next to him is afraid that he will not let this batch of goods leave the port.
Seeing that the Huo family was about to leave the dock, the boatman suddenly became anxious.
"Go and invite the Huo family back. If they don't come back, you won't get the shipping fee even if you throw me into the sea."
The bearded captain looked at the ferocious-looking crew members, hesitated for a moment, and then called a few crew members to call back the Huo family.
Looking at the large group of armed people at the dock, the captain gave special instructions when the crew got off the ship.
"Be nicer, this is someone else's territory, be careful or you won't be able to come back."
The crew member's expression changed, then he nodded and left the cargo ship.
The people on this ship don't usually do any serious business.
We often encounter situations where gangs rob each other. People who don’t have a little courage would have given up long ago.
They were usually arrogant and domineering, and there were many people wandering around the dock with weapons hidden. He was really worried that his men would not be able to come back.
Chief Engineer Gao followed Mr. Huo all the way out of the dock, but the shouting behind him disappeared.
Chief Engineer Gao was extremely anxious and wanted to look back several times, but seeing that no one around him looked back, he could only hold back.
It’s not that Chief Engineer Gao is impatient, but the country really needs industrial mother machines, and Chief Engineer Gao is reluctant to give them up.
If the country did not lack these things, he would not have traveled so far to Hong Kong Island before the New Year.
Based on the few words that person said before, Chief Engineer Gao left even faster than the Huo family.
"Please stay, our captain has something he wants to discuss with you."
Just as the crew member finished speaking, he was surrounded by a group of people. Seeing so many people surrounding him, he immediately changed his words.
"Don't be in such a hurry to leave, everyone. As you Chinese say, if you ask for a high price, you should pay it back on the spot.
Is there anything we can discuss? And the person just mentioned that they have better equipment. Do you want to go back and take a look?"
This time the crew's tone was obviously much better, Mr. Huo looked at the crew and said.
"I hope you can satisfy us this time. As you can see, this is my territory."
The crew member on the opposite side nodded hurriedly to show that they understood.
"Chief Engineer Gao, let's go back and see what these foreigners are up to."
Chief Engineer Gao nodded and said.
"Okay, let's go take a look."
The group returned to the boat again. This time, the crew members didn't dare to let them go and immediately said.
"Mr. Huo, we haven't finished our business yet, why are you leaving?"
Mr. Huo said nothing. Seeing that the other party still wanted to gain the upper hand in the negotiation, he immediately made preparations to leave.
The other party grabbed Mr. Huo and said quickly.
"Mr. Huo, Mr. Huo, please listen to me first. Our company has another shipment of goods in Southeast Asia, and this one is definitely an industrial machine.
My terms are simple: you must accept both ships' cargoes, and the price we agreed upon must be followed to complete the transaction."
Mr. Huo sneered and said.
“You guys gave me assurances repeatedly before, but look at what these are.
How can I believe what you say this time?"
"This time it's absolutely true, please believe me. The company just doesn't want to take the risk.
After all, we have to bear the risks when transporting these equipment here.
If the price is the same as in other regions, why should we take the risk and sell these devices to the East? "
Mr. Huo looked at Chief Engineer Gao. After all, the equipment was needed by Chen Changan and the money was also provided by Chen Changan.
As Chen Changan's spokesperson, any decision on the scene can only be made by Chief Engineer Gao.
At this time, Chief Engineer Gao had calmed down. He felt that this matter needed to be reported to Chen Changan.
Originally it was one shipload of goods, but now it has become two shipsloads, and I have to buy them at the original price, but the money doesn’t seem to be enough.
