"Excuse me, Boss, Yao Wang is on the phone."
"Thank you," Roderich picked up his phone in his office. He wasn't sure what the purpose of the call was. "Hello, Herr Wang. I have must have forgotten we had a business call." He turned to today's date in his calendar. Everything with the Italian brothers, Roderich was slipping a little bit.
"This is a personal business call. I have some valuable information that you might be interested in, Mr. Edelstein."
Roderich sat back in his chair. "What makes you think I would be interested?"
"My sources tell me you had a pest problem not too long ago. Not only a part of your mansion went up in flames, but you also had something taken from you. I know where the Italians are. I can even get them back to you."
"Your sources are good. I assuming you have a price."
Yao smirked. "You are quite right."
"What's your pricing?"
"For the information $400,000. For delivering them is $1,620,000. If you just want one then the price is $810,000. This is pretty cheap for me, but we are business partners. I thought I would reduce the price for you."
"Thank you." Roderich thought for a moment. "Is there an expiration on this offer?"
Yao was pleased with how this conversation was going. "Three days. Again this is because we are partners. Normally I want an answer when the offer was made."
"I will get back in touch. Goodbye."
"Have a good day."
Roderich hung up the phone. He immediately picked up the phone again and dialed a number.
"Hello."
"I need your services."
"The Italians again?"
"Yes. As well as a few others."
"I'll be over. We can talk in person."
