"Here's the thing. Cynthion Group intends to establish a branch here. Once the branch is established, we will be responsible for production and sales, while the Morrisons will be responsible for supplying herbs and marketing," Leon said, before proceeding to explain his plan. Since he did not know the western region well, it would be challenging to dive into the market there within a short period. The Morrisons were the most powerful family in the area with great influence and once he partnered with them, Morrisons would take care of the supply and marketing, facilitating the establishment of the branch. Furthermore, Cynthion Group's alchemical pills had great market value and could easily attract unwanted attention. Since Leon was based in the southern region, he would not have much time to manage the branch in the western region and could only partner with the Morrisons to seek their protection, preventing others from trying to take over Cynthion Group. That way, the risk would
"What? That's impossible!" Leon was stunned and stood abruptly. He was about to agree to give the Morrisons thirty percent of the total profit. To his bewilderment, Georgie greedily demanded seventy percent of profit and shares. This was an unreasonable request and there was no way Leon would agree to it. "Nothing's impossible! Mister Wolf, you should that Cynthion Group means nothing in the western region. You have no backers! If you want to establish a branch here and grow swiftly, you need to rely on us! All you need to input is technology and produce some pills, and you can just sit around waiting to profit. If that’s all you're contributing, it's considered generous that we are letting you have thirty percent of the total profit!" Georgie sneered arrogantly, sounding almost as though the Morrisons were being extremely generous. "Mister Morrison, if the technology in producing alchemical pills is that insignificant, why don't the Morrisons just go ahead and establish a few
"Kid, you better know your place! Cynthion Group is just a small pharmaceutical firm in the southern region. The Morrisons are already making great sacrifices to split the profit in half! Don't get cocky!" Jayden was displeased upon hearing Leon's refusal. Though Cynthion Group gathered tremendous fame in the southern region and became the most successful enterprise in the area. However, the western region was too far away and the Morrisons did not know anything about Cynthion Group or its success. Jayden decided that Cynthion Group was a small pharmaceutical firm with no connections in the western region. Without the Morrisons' help, it would be almost impossible for them to open a branch there. Hence, Jayden and Georgie felt a sense of superiority, thinking that the Morrisons were above Cynthion Group. If Cynthion Group wanted to expand to the western region, Leon would have to agree to their terms. "Yeah, Jayden's right! Fifty-fifty is the best we can do! Mister Wolf, please
"It's fine. Elder Morrison, the chairman has left me in charge of this matter before I come to the western region. There's no way that you're getting fifty percent of the profit!" Leon said decisively. "What do you propose, then?" Caleb's expression darkened as he was displeased by how difficult Leon was being. "I'll repeat: if the Morrisons want to work with Cynthion Group, the profit will be divided by twenty-eighty! The Morrisons will have access to twenty percent of Cynthion Group's total profit made in the western region, but you will have no company share!" Leon said. He initially planned to offer the Morrisons thirty percent of the profit as a gesture of courtesy. However, the Morrisons remained arrogant and greedy without any respect for the Cynthion Group. It was clear that they did not treasure this opportunity. Leon was mild-tempered but was still enraged by their attitude. Hence, he did not hold back and insisted on offering the Morrisons twenty percent of the pro
"Well," Caleb fell into silence upon hearing Hugo's words. The profit Leon offered earlier was too low for the Morrisons to consider, but Hugo was right. the alchemical pills sold by Cynthion Group held great potential and the Morrisons would only benefit from partnering with it. It would be foolish of him to miss this opportunity and refuse to work with Cynthion Group. "Grandpa, this is a one-in-a-lifetime chance. You need to consider it more carefully," Seeing the hesitation on his face, Hugo continued. When he participated in Cynthion Group's sales drive, Leon did not intend to expand his business to the western region at the time. It was Hugo who proposed to collect herbs for Leon and therefore fought for a chance for the Morrisons to work with Cynthion Group. Everything was about to be finalized, yet Leon seemed ready to call off the deal due to issues with the profit division and the arrogant attitude the others put on. For the sake of the family, Hugo could only try
"But," Hugo refused to give up and wanted to talk to Caleb, only for Caleb to interrupt him. "That's the end of the discussion. Hugo, show our guests the way out! Mister Wolf has come a long way, so send him to the best hotel to rest! As for this collaboration, allow me some more time to consider!" Caleb said. Though he was not pleased with the terms Leon offered, with his experience, he could tell that the Morrisons would surely benefit from working with Cynthion Group. Hence, he did not turn the deal down. He intended to get Hugo to settle Leon down and leave Leon hanging for a few days. Once Leon started to feel nervous or became willing to make compromises, Caleb could agree to work with Cynthion Group. That way, the Morrisons could remain in control and keep Cynthion Group at bay to fight for the most profit. "Well, alright, then." Rendered helpless, Hugo could only give up. "It's fine! Thank you for your kind offering, Elder Morrison! I will find my place to stay, s
"Please don't say that!" Hugo's heart sank. As the eldest son of the Morrisons and the brightest among the youngest generation in the western region, Hugo was perceptive and could tell that Leon was prepared to give on this partnership with the Morrisons when he offered to pay for the herbs. This was hardly the result he hoped for. "Mister Wolf, my grandpa, and the others are just blinded by greed. Please give me some time to talk to them. Don't worry. I'll convince him to agree to work together," Hugo said sincerely. "It's fine. There's no need to force it. Let this end here!" Leon shook his head. "But," Hugo tried to debate but was interrupted by Leon. "That's the end of the discussion! Mister Morrison, as I've mentioned before, we can still be friends even if we can't do business with one another! As for the herbs you've found, you can contact me if you feel like selling them to Cynthion Group," Leon said. "Well." Hugo fell into silence. He knew that Leon came from t
After Hugo left, Renee walked over and scanned Leon from head to toe, her expression strange. "What's wrong, Miss Morrison? Why are you looking at me like that?" Leon asked in confusion and touched his face, feeling uncomfortable at her prying gaze. "Mister Wolf, you seem like an ordinary person, but you sure have guts. My uncle and the elders were all pressuring you into submission, yet you kept your composure and showed no fear at all. That's hardly ordinary," Renee complimented. Like the others, she assumed that Leon was merely a vice president and looked down on him. However, when Leon was in a discussion with Caleb, Jayden and the others pressured Leon into accepting a more favorable deal for the Morrisons. Still, Leon did not lose his composure and remained unwavering under the pressure. Renee was impressed, as Jayden and the elders were all in the Almighty State. Leon, on the other hand, was merely a young vice president of Cynthion Group. Considering his age, it was a s
