A path that is easier and more profitable than selling opium.
"It is indeed an irresistible temptation!" Sai Zhalunwang leaned back in his chair, shifting into a more comfortable position, and sighed. Then, seemingly casually, he asked, "So, Mr. Kondo, what do I need to give in order to do this kind of business?"
Kondo Kohei suddenly broke into a relaxed smile and said slowly, "I am already deeply grateful that the general is willing to help me circulate the counterfeit money. To show my sincerity, I only need a small share of the profits from this deal."
As he spoke, Kondo Kohei made a tiny gesture with his right thumb and forefinger. "Of all the goods you distribute, General, as technical support, I will only take 30% of your profits."
Sai Zhalunwang picked up the teacup on the table, not even glancing at Kondo Kohei. His eyes seemed fixed only on the pale red tea in the cup, and he casually said, "One-tenth."
Unexpectedly, Kondo Kohei nodded immediately without the slightest hesitation. "Okay!"
Sai Zhalunwang looked up at Kondo Kohei with a hint of appreciation in his eyes, picked up his teacup and drank it all in one gulp, then stood up.
Kondo Kohei immediately stood up, put his hands together in a Thailand greeting.
Instead of echoing Kondo Kohei, Sai Zhalunwang calmly extended his left hand to him. "Mr. Kondo, it's a pleasure doing business with you."
Kondo Kohei was slightly surprised, but quickly realized what was happening. He laughed and extended his right hand to shake hands firmly with Sai Zhalunwang.
"Before I leave, I have one more question." Sai Zhalunwang didn't let go. "What was the name of the person who received Mr. Kondo's technical support before me?"
Kondo Kohei felt the stinging pain from the calluses on Sai Zhalunwang's hands rubbing against his palms and the backs of his hands, but his face showed no displeasure. He answered as instructed, "His Li Caifa, and he is China person."
Sai Zhalunwang nodded slightly, withdrew his palms, and clasped his hands together. "Khokun."
Kondo Kohei smiled knowingly and returned the greeting with his palms together.
Chapter 533 Beware of Accidental Fire
In the corridor, Nai Khun and Paitoon stood there seemingly bored and listless, but in reality, their attention was always on the door of the dean's office and the two Japan doctors, a man and a woman.
Although they are still in a cooperative relationship, the two have not forgotten the teachings that Sai Zhalunwang has always given them: the Japan can be used, but they should never be regarded as allies, and they should never turn their backs on these people, otherwise what will kill you will not be the enemy's bullets, but the Japan bayonets stabbing you in the back.
Perhaps the other person thinks the same way?
Nai Khun twisted his neck, a mocking smile on his lips, and glanced at the two Japan doctors standing straight in front of the office door.
At the same time, the doorbell rang in the dean's office. Almost simultaneously, Nai Khun and Paitoon immediately abandoned their lazy demeanor and strode forward.
Inside the door, Kondo Kohei, with a humble posture and a slight bow, led Sai Zhalunwang out.
Nai Khun and Paitoon approached Sai Zhalunwang and respectfully greeted him, "Sai Ba!"
Sai Zhalunwang smiled and nodded to the two men, then turned to Kondo Kohei: "I had a very enjoyable chat with Mr. Kondo today, but I have some other matters to attend to now. Paitoon."
Paitoon lowered his head meekly and said, "Yes, Sai Ba."
"You stay here and discuss the details of the counterfeit currency circulation with Mr. Kondo. Remember, Mr. Kondo is our friend, and his words are my words," Sai Zhalunwang instructed Paitoon with an extremely cautious expression.
Paitoon solemnly responded, then bowed respectfully to Kondo Kohei, making a gesture as if to kneel.
Kondo Kohei feigned surprise, quickly reaching out to support Paitoon, and chuckled at Sai Zhalunwang, "General, you're too kind."
Sai Zhalunwang's smile remained unchanged. He nodded slightly to Paitoon then stopped insisting. Taking advantage of Kondo Kohei's slight support by his elbow, Paitun stood up and said, "Mr. Kondo, please guide me."
"We're all a bunch of roughnecks, Mr. Kondo is far superior to us. Remember, you must learn diligently from him." Sai Zhalunwang patted Paitoon's shoulder meaningfully. Their eyes met briefly in the air before Sai Zhalunwang immediately looked away. "Mr. Kondo, I apologize for disturbing you today. Since we are interested in cooperating, let's proceed as we discussed in the office. Paitoon has been with me since he was little; please take the time to guide him."
Kondo Kohei smiled warmly, "General, rest assured, I've got everything covered."
Sai Zhalunwang smiled and nodded, "Then I'll take my leave."
Kondo Kohei gestured for him to enter. Of the two Japan doctors standing beside him, the female doctor immediately stepped forward, went to the end of the corridor, pushed open the glass door, and pressed the elevator button for Tissa Charonwang.
Sai Zhalunwang said no more, called out to Nai Khun beside him, and the father and son stepped forward toward the elevator, with Kondo Kohei and the other two seeing them off. Only after Sai Zhalunwang and Nai Khun entered the elevator and the iron doors closed and descended did Kondo Kohei turn around with a smile and focus his attention on the robust Paitoon beside him.
At this moment, Paitoon was staring at the descending elevator. His face no longer showed the relaxed expression he had before; instead, his brows were slightly furrowed. He didn't even notice that Kondo Kohei was observing him closely.
Of course, this might also be due to Kondo Kohei's short stature. When he stood next to Sai Zhalunwang, the height difference was already noticeable, and now, standing opposite Paitoon, the difference was even more obvious.
"Mr. Paitoon, is something on your mind?" Seeing Paitoon's absent-minded look, Kondo Kohei asked in a smiling voice.
Paitoon out of his daze, shook his head and smiled at Kondo Kohei, "It's nothing. Mr. Kondo, my Sai Ba asked me to confirm the details of the cooperation with you. So, shall we now?"
Kondo Kohei smiled and said, "No rush. Mr. Paitoon hasn't eaten yet, has he? I specially asked someone to prepare Thailand. I originally wanted the general and his son to dine together, but they left first. Why don't we have a meal together first and then discuss the cooperation?"
