"When it cos to profit, isn’t it up to the construction party to decide?" Smith chuckled darkly on the other end, "Mr. Leafcastle is an expert in this field, surely he understands that if costs are compressed, profits will naturally be high, right?"
"But that will affect the quality of the construction."
Smith spoke in a casual tone, "You should know that high profits always an high risks, don’t they?"
Compressing costs ans that the entire project’s quality will definitely be compromised. This is a national-level important engineering project, and Barker has always valued quality above all. Over the years, they’ve relied on reputation and credibility.
"I won’t do such a thing." Nathan Leafcastle spoke with determination.
"I see..." Smith sighed, "If Mr. Leafcastle insists, then I can only proceed according to our contract terms. If Barker and Ashton fail to secure this project, I can only use Mr. Leafcastle’s shares to compensate for my losses!"
"You... don’t forget, we previously agreed that you would help deal with Ashton."
"I must remind Mr. Leafcastle, don’t forget, our premise is that you all secure the project. If you don’t secure it, what do you have to negotiate with ?" Smith’s tone carried an arrogant undertone, "I still hope Mr. Leafcastle seriously considers, after all, we had a prior agreent. I also don’t want to end up with that result with Mr. Leafcastle. I can only wish you good luck!"
Without giving Nathan Leafcastle a chance to speak, Smith directly hung up the phone.
"Damn it!"
Nathan Leafcastle slamd the phone heavily onto the table.
Smith’s offer was only 10.3 billion, six hundred million less than their bid.
At such a bid, profits won’t exceed 2%, let alone Smith will certainly take a portion of the profit.
Calculating this way, Barker almost has no profit at all.
If he wants to show profits to Bernardy Dalton, he has only one way—to compromise the materials used in the project to compress costs into profit.
If that happens, the quality of the project will be greatly discounted.
But if he doesn’t do this, all his shares would be transferred to Smith, and he would beco a pauper.
What should he do?!
Nathan Leafcastle lifted his hand weakly to support his head, falling into deep thought.

Jiuzhou Hotel.
The door was knocked on, Bernardy Dalton’s assistant went over and opened the door, seeing Kris Cooper standing outside, he hurriedly invited him in.
"Chairman, Mr. Cooper is here!"
"Mr. Cooper, please co in!" Bernardy Dalton smiled, inviting him into the room, offering him a seat, then spoke with a smile, "So urgently looking for , is there sothing up?"
Kris Cooper glanced at his assistant, Bernardy Dalton understood and smiled imdiately, "It’s fine, you can speak freely."
With a slight nod, Kris Cooper raised his hand to receive the docunts from Tommy Taylor, placing them in front of Bernardy Dalton.
"There are so matters, I think... you have the right to know."
Bernardy Dalton took the docunts handed over with suspicion, opened the bag, and took out the contents.
On top was a stack of photos.
The first was a photo of Nathan Leafcastle eting with Smith, Bernardy Dalton frowned, quickly flipping through the photos.
"Mr. Cooper, what... does this an?!"
"There are also so recordings inside, you’ll understand after you listen." Kris Cooper stood up from the sofa, "These materials will take you so ti to go through, I have other matters, so I’ll excuse myself now!"
