Chapter 451 Liu Yong's Offer !
In a bustling exhibition hall, amid the murmur of voices and the clang of machinery, a familiar voice cut through the din.
"Mr. Liu!"
The words reverberated with urgency and hope, drawing the attention of many. Yet, none could quite match the eagerness in Su Jie's voice as he approached Liu Yong.
"Mr. Liu, it's me, Su Jie from the Yellow River Knife!"
Su Jie's face expressed desperate anticipation, as though he feared going unrecognized by the person he sought.
Momentarily taken aback, Liu Yong quickly recognized Su Jie, the very individual who had deemed his black alloy too expensive the previous day, resulting in no purchase.
"Oh, President Su," Liu Yong replied, his tone laced with a hint of amusement, "Feel free to drop by whenever you have a moment."
Su Jie's smile was bittersweet as he confessed, "Mr. Liu, I'm feeling quite regretful now. Why did I pass up the chance to buy your black alloy yesterday?"
Still wearing a genial smile, Liu Yong responded, "We've only got 2,000 tons in stock for now. It won't be long before they're all sold out."
Indeed, they were sold out, with nothing remaining.
Su Jie stood there, his face a portrait of conflicted thoughts, muttering to himself as he wrestled with regret.
Then, as if surrendering to his remorse, he turned to Liu Yong and confessed, "Mr. Liu, I'm regretting my decision. If only I hadn't balked at the high price yesterday, I would've ordered a few hundred tons. What a missed opportunity!"
Liu Yong chuckled and remarked, "President Su, do you still think our black alloy is expensive now?"
Su Jie's response was swift and emphatic, "Not at all! It's a steal! A product as exceptional as this could easily fetch 10,000 yuan or more per kilogram. Even at 20,000 to 30,000 yuan per kilogram, there would still be a thriving market for it."
"Mr. Liu," Su Jie implored, "We're in dire need of this alloy. Can you help us out? I'd owe you a great debt. Could you spare us one or two tons?"
Liu Yong felt a surge of satisfaction. As a seller, having customers earnestly request your product and speak so highly of it was a rare privilege.
"Boss Su, I'm afraid I don't have any inventory on hand right now. How about this? In about ten days, we'll receive a fresh batch of black alloy. Come by a bit earlier then."
Ten days!
Just ten days!
It was a far cry from the one-month wait he had anticipated. Su Jie's face lit up with newfound hope, grateful for this accelerated timeline.
With a firm handshake, Su Jie said, "Mr. Liu, thank you so much. I'll definitely be there in ten days."
Liu Yong added, "Just get in touch with Mr. Xin."
Su Jie thanked him again and exchanged contact information with Xin Feiwen before departing from the Universal Special Materials Group exhibition area.
The 2,000 tons of ferrous alloys had been completely sold out, with no further orders being accepted. However, grey-black metals were still available for purchase.
Initially, this alloy was meant for something other than export. But with the current surplus, it could satisfy both military and civilian demands.
Liu Yong had secured the exclusive right to sell 5,000 tons per month, of which 4,000 tons were allocated for the domestic market, and the remaining 1,000 tons could be exported.
While 5,000 tons may not seem like a colossal quantity, it vanished quickly at the exhibition. Numerous high-end manufacturing companies were eager for this exceptional alloy.
Several prominent domestic enterprises had already placed substantial orders, with the majority being state-owned behemoths and a few private manufacturers joining the fray.
At this exhibition, the undisputed victor was the Global Enterprise Group. They had secured an order for 2,000 tons of ferrous alloys and completely sold out their stock of 5,000 tons of grey-black metals.
These two alloys had rapidly gained recognition in the market. Initially unfamiliar to many, they had now become household names.
Amidst the vast expanse of the Pacific Ocean, the Bawang, a mighty vessel, embarked on its first journey to deliver dozens of black alloy rods, each weighing roughly twenty tons.
For most, a journey spanning over a thousand nautical miles would be significant. Yet, for the Bawang, it amounted to a mere three to four hours.
Arriving at its destination, the Bawang meticulously positioned dozens of black alloy rods on the shallow seabed. Upon seeing the neatly arranged rods, it calculated that its Master required 200 rods, equivalent to 4,000 tons of black alloy, a feat it could accomplish in two to three days.
Satisfied with its task, the Bawang then turned its attention to the wreckage of a spaceship, swimming towards it leisurely.
As it glided through the water, something peculiar caught its eye.
"Hey, what is that stuff?" Bawang wondered aloud.
The closer it drew, the more precise the object became. It was entirely black, covered in scales, and measured forty to fifty meters long. While it resembled a sea snake, it deviated in significant ways.
Overlord's thoughts raced. Could this be an enlarged sea python? Yet, he had never heard of such a colossal serpent inhabiting the ocean depths. It was an entirely novel species.
Peering through Overlord's eyes via a third-party vision, Liu Yong shared the sentiment, "Overlord, I'm not sure what that is, but I'd advise against provoking it."
The Overlord, however, remained undeterred, its enthusiasm unabated, "Master, it's not small at all! How about I try a taste?"
Liu Yong chuckled, offering a mild rebuke, "You're quite the foodie, aren't you? Are you not concerned about its toxicity?"
Undaunted, the Overlord proudly asserted, "I have a robust resistance to poison; I'm not afraid in the slightest."
As if sensing Overlord's presence, the enigmatic creature lunged at them, revealing its menacing countenance and charging forward with bared teeth and claws.
Yet, the Overlord remained unperturbed, for this encounter was brief and decidedly one-sided.
The battle between the two was swift and one-sided. The "sea python" met its fate in moments, consumed by the Overlord as though it were a mere spicy snack.
One bite, followed by another.
After a few mouthfuls, Overlord lauded its discovery, "Master, it's exquisite! I've never tasted anything like it before."
This sea creature was colossal, measuring four to five meters in circumference. Liu Yong estimated its weight to be at least seventy to eighty tons.
Yet, the Overlord remained unsatiated, having devoured the creature with ease.
"It's delectable! I wouldn't mind another one," Overlord mused.
"Master
, I'd like to explore further to see if there's another one nearby."
Liu Yong consented, "Feel free to explore. You have ample time; just ensure you transport a total of 200 black alloy rods over the next five days."
Since Overlord had moved nearly a hundred rods, five days seemed like an eternity. It began its search in the nearby waters but found no trace of another creature.
Undeterred, it ventured toward the seabed, where the ocean's depth exceeded a thousand meters. Yet, curiosity soon led it deeper into the abyssal depths, reaching two to three thousand meters below the surface.
