C415 The Mother-in-law Came

"And in the negotiations, there is another very important point. It is the trump card."1

"Trump card?" Yang Tao was a bit confused: "Aren't the cards and chips going on for a while?"

"Hehe, these two are not the same thing. If you have not played in the game before, you should have seen them on TV, the chips are the money on the table, the cards in your hand are the cards only you know about. With money, you will only have the qualification to sit at the game table, and the cards will allow you to see whether you win or lose, how much you win, and how much you lose." Lee Tianjiu explained.

"At the negotiating table, sometimes the chips are enough to make a business deal, but every time, the two sides would want to know or judge each other's trump cards, and once misjudged, they would lose a lot of money. If one's judgement is correct, then they can fight for the greatest benefit, so the bargaining chip determines whether they have the qualifications or not, and the trump card is the upper limit of a business negotiation."

Yang Tao nodded and said, "Uncle Jiu, I really want to understand something. Tell me, what is my trump card?"

"Your trump card is Lu Guoxing. Your goal is to get Lu Guoxing to stop receiving orders from Nine Links Pharmaceutical Group. This is your trump card." Lee Tianjiu said, "If during the negotiations, you threw out your trump card the moment you started, then it was very easy for the other party to come up with something to bargain with. You've already lost the ability to bargain with them."

"Then what should I do?" Yang Tao asked.

"There are many ways to achieve this goal. There are also many ways to gain the most benefits for yourself. Your goal is to defeat Lu Guoxing, then we can change our way of thinking. This is just my idea. I'll let you know." Lee Tianjiu voiced out his thoughts.

Hearing this, Yang Tao's eyes lit up. How could he not have thought of this idea? If it came to him, not only would Lu Guoxing be defeated, he could even start his own business.

After discussing the details with Lee Tianjiu, he left in satisfaction.

While Yang Tao and Lee Tianjiu were discussing, Soong Jia received a call from her mother.

"Hello Mom, what's the matter?"

"Jiajia, I'm already at the Huahai City. Where are you staying?" Mother Soong said.

"Ah, you're already here. Why didn't you tell me in advance, I'll pick you up." Soong Jia said.

"It's not like I'm an older person who doesn't know the way, why do I need you to pick me up? Just tell me the address and I'll go look for you." Soong Jia gave her mother the address and hung up.

Mother Soong stopped a taxi at the side of the road and reported the address. Other than visiting her own daughter, she also had another reason for coming to Huahai City this time.

That night, she had a quarrel with Soong Jia. Furthermore, Soong Jia's attitude was very tough, so she knew that it was useless to oppose it. She also didn't know what kind of bewitching soup that stinking brat, Yang Tao, gave her daughter to follow him wholeheartedly.

Hence, she felt that she shouldn't cause such a ruckus. Furthermore, she couldn't say much on the phone, so when she got excited, she hung up the phone. Hence, she decided to personally come to Huahai City and stay here for a few days to slowly persuade them.

Secondly, there was an important reason to see Yang Tao. He wanted to talk to him alone and persuade him to let go. If the man let go, then Soong Jia would have no need to persist.

After Soong Jia sent the address to her mother, she quickly sent a message to Yang Tao. Yang Tao had just come back from Lee Tianjiu's place, so when he saw the message, he quickly called back.

"Hey, Jiajia, is your mother here yet?" Yang Tao asked.

"Yeah, I just found out. She didn't even tell me when she came." Soong Jia said.

"It's okay, it's almost lunch time. I should hurry to the restaurant and get a private room so I can help your mom wash up." Yang Tao said.

"Alright."
