Chapter 3522 I Don't Have the Final Say

"Xu Qiang, you should know how difficult it is to occupy a gold mine with your current strength. Once a powerful mercenary group is dispatched, your gold mine will change its owner in an instant, and you will lose everything."

Drake is still warning Xu Qiang. Xu Qiang will understand the interests involved after thinking about it, and he does not need to explain too much.

On the one hand, he helped Xu Qiang make a prediction, and on the other hand, he stood up and regarded himself as Xu Qiang's backer.

At least now Xu Qiang's ability is not greater than Drake in front of him. With this, Xu Qiang must be honest and sit here to listen to Drake.

"But if the two of us cooperate, the result will be different. With my reputation as a mafia, no one dares to take your gold mine. Such cooperation is simply perfect."

"Really? If we want to cooperate, I wonder how much Drake thinks I should take."

Drake is very generous. He stretched out a hand and gestured five fingers. The answer is already very clear.

"How about we split the profits of all the gold mines 50-50? You can mine with peace of mind, and I will help you remove obstacles and threats."

Xu Qiang understood his situation. Drake did not propose such a condition to him just to hear the word "rejection".

So Xu Qiang pretended to be thinking. After a moment, he seemed to have an answer. He looked up at Drake and said.

"Boss Drake, this is indeed a good proposal. It seems that there is no need to refuse it, whether for you or for me."

"I have always been friendly to my business friends. This condition I proposed will definitely not treat you unfairly. And I promise that I will help you stabilize that Freman. As long as I am here, Freman will not dare to attack you."

"Thank you, this is indeed a good idea."

Xu Qiang agreed to Drake's proposal. Drake was overjoyed. He thought it would take some effort to convince Xu Qiang, but now it seems that everything is going well.

He took out an agreement from under the table, which clearly stated the profit sharing of the gold mine and some things Drake promised to Xu Qiang next.

It seems that these were all prepared in advance. Drake did not leave a second choice for this negotiation, so Xu Qiang could only agree.

"Come on, Mr. Xu Qiang, if you sign, we will be business partners from now on."

Drake handed Xu Qiang a pen and said, Xu Qiang held the pen in his hand, hesitated for a moment, and then put the pen aside.

"What's the matter? Do you have any questions about my conditions?"

"No, no, no, Boss Drake, the conditions proposed are indeed very tempting, I will naturally not refuse."

"So what do you mean now?"

Xu Qiang put the pen aside. After signing this agreement, he became Drake's lackey. What about the fifty-fifty split? At that time, even this fifty-fifty split will not be shared by Xu Qiang.

There is a good piece of cake, why cut it into several pieces and give it to others? Drake's calculations are good, but Xu Qiang is not a fool.

"Mr. Drake, I can agree to your conditions, but the owner of this gold mine is Xiao Yi, not me, Xu Qiang. I am just managing it on his behalf, so even if I sign this, it will have no effect."

"What?"

"Boss Drake, since you are so sincere, why don't I contact Xiao Yi now and ask Mr. Xiao Yi to come over in person to discuss cooperation with Boss Drake."

Xu Qiang had no way to deal with Drake, but at the critical moment, Xu Qiang thought of Xiao Yi and said Xiao Yi's name here.

When Drake heard Xiao Yi's name, his face suddenly changed, and his expression became heavy, like a fishbone stuck in his throat, stuck in his throat, and he felt extremely uncomfortable.

The previous negotiations had been smooth, and he thought he could really easily take down Xu Qiang, but Xu Qiang changed the subject, which made Drake not know what to say.

He is an old fox, but Xu Qiang is not bad either. He brought Xiao Yi out at the critical moment. With Xiao Yi blocking him, how dare he think about the gold mine.

"I'll call now. If Xiao Yi has time, he should come over in person."

"No, no, no, that's not necessary. I don't think we need to bother Xiao Yi about this matter."

"How can this be? Isn't Drake going to talk about the gold mine? I, Xu Qiang, don't have the right to do so. I can only ask Xiao Yi."

Drake interrupted Xu Qiang's action, took his phone and put it on the table. He didn't dare to talk to Xiao Yi about the gold mine.

The two kept their distance. Although Drake was not afraid of Xiao Yi, he didn't dare to provoke him, so the cooperation on the gold mine was dropped.

"I thought you were in charge of this gold mine, Xu Qiang. If that's the case, then I'll just pretend I didn't mention it."

"This... Mr. Drake won't be angry, right? This gold mine is indeed not mine. If it was mine, I could give it to you."

Xu Qiang's words were very generous. How could Drake take such a lie seriously? He could only give up and personally poured Xu Qiang a full glass of wine with a smile.

He held his cup and gently touched it, and put the previous things aside, as if nothing had happened.

"It doesn't matter, I just made a suggestion. If that's the case, we will just pretend that we didn't say anything before, Xu Qiang, do you understand?"

"I understand... Of course I understand."

"But don't worry, Xu Qiang. I will help you explain the matter of Freeman. Freeman will give me face and resolve the conflict between you."

Drake ended with one sentence, and the matter about the gold mine had to be put aside. If he had known this, he should not have brought up this topic with Xu Qiang, and finally lost his face.

After drinking, Xu Qiang left on his own. This time, Drake specially prepared a bottle of 1982 Lafite in order to propose cooperation in the gold mine, but I am afraid that his efforts were in vain.

Watching Xu Qiang leave, Drake's face turned gloomy. How could he not understand that Xu Qiang mentioned Xiao Yi's name before in order to suppress his power.

Although Xu Qiang was alone, Drake could not afford to offend the backers behind him. A cooked duck was flying in front of him, but it was a pity that he had no chance to eat it.

"This damn Xu Qiang actually dared to play tricks on me. So what if he brought up that Xiao Yi? Do you really think I can't do anything to you?"

Drake was not in a position to take action, but now he had a ready-made chess piece in his hand, and that person was Freeman.

As long as he, Drake, said a word, Freeman would definitely not spare Xu Qiang this time, and he, Drake, only needed to wait for the opportunity to take action.
