Sweet Love novel Chapter 31

Two hours later, Rayburn greets Rolf, the German representative, again. Just after seeing them off, Rayburn’s door is knocked on by Yusef, who then walks into this office.

Rayburn sits on the chair and looks at the visitor. He is not surprised at all, instructing Rose, “Two cups of coffee, please. It's rare that Mr. Yusef comes here, remember to use the best coffee beans."

Yusef is younger than him, but Yusef’s position is more necessary than his. Therefore, even if Rayburn believes that he is one of the secrets of this company's success, he still needs to show his respect on the surface.

Chuckling, Yusef walks to the sofa near him and sits down, "Come on, uncle Fackler, don't stand on ceremony. I just want to ask about the current situation and will leave soon."

In any case, Rayburn was once his father's right-hand man, so Yusef always calls him uncle in private.

Rayburn asks knowingly, "What is wrong?"

With an ordinary tone, Yusef raises his eyebrows slightly, "Has the price with German representatives been determined? I just saw them leaving when I came."

The division of projects in the Penn’s is very clear. Yusef, Rayburn, and Eliot never intervene in projects that other people are responsible for, otherwise it may cause confusion and entanglement, making everyone unhappy.

This is a customary rule in the company, and Yusef knows this well. As long as it is not his project, he will not ask at all and only examine the final result.

But this time, he not only asks, but also goes to Rayburn's office specially...

Rayburn glances at him, "The price is fixed, and now we are going to sign the contract. Once we have the contract ready, there will be no problem."

"Sounds good." Yusef says lightly, just as Rose comes in with coffee and hands him a cup.

After Rose leaves the office, Rayburn looks at Yusef and asks with a smile, "Yusef, you come here…not just want to know how the project is going, right?"

Yusef chuckles softly, slowly putting down the coffee cup in his hand, "I want to know whether Uncle Fackler is satisfied with the final price. After all, my clumsy secretary gave Uncle Fackler a lot of additional trouble, didn’t she?"

Rayburn stands up, picks up the documents on the desk, hands the documents to Yusef, who is sitting on the sofa, "This is the final quotation from the other side, and the price per piece is actually 0.06 higher than my expect."

Rayburn doesn’t continue to say, but apparently there is dissatisfaction in his tone. Regardless of the fact that a single accessory is only 0.06 higher, it will increase the price of the final product a lot, which affects the sales and competitiveness in the market to a certain extent.

Yusef glances at the data on the file, raising the corner of his lips. "Uncle Fackler, learning about their technology is not the only way. Nowadays, there are more and more technical teams emerging in China. As long as we get these goods, it’s very easy to figure out the cardinal principles. Therefore, if we don't affect their foreign markets, we’ll be able to produce our own accessories."

He puts these documents on the coffee table and stands up, "Since the price has been negotiated, it cannot be adjusted anymore, but we can change ourselves. Never forget to think outside the box."

Rayburn's face darkens, " It's easier said than done. We could subtract this 0.06 if your secretary doesn’t..."

Suddenly, he breaks off in mid-sentence, seeming to realize that his attitude is too agitated and looking at Yusef's face.

Yusef doesn’t show his emotions at all, "No matter what, things have happened. Uncle Fackler, even if I really fire her now, it won't help anything."
