14 Money transferred

Next morning, John reports the result of the meeting between Ding Wei and him to his boss, Mr. Joseph in his office.

"Sir, I want to report the result of my meeting with my friend last night"

"Please, tell me about that, John. I hope the result is good"

"Young miss have good luck, Sir. My meeting with my friend resulted in a deal last night"

"Finally…so when my daughter can have her new heart?"

"My friend promise me to deliver the goods within 6 months with price 22 million dollars, and if he delivers it within 6-12 months range, he willing to paid with only 20 million dollars, Sir"

"That means my daughter still has to wait…"

"I'm sorry sir…but you know, the goods we looking for is not easy to get"

"My apologies…I'm just too anxious with my daughter condition"

"It's alright sir…I understand that"

"John…That friend of yours...can we rely on him?"

"Don't worry sir, although I haven't met him for couple years, he can be trusted. Besides, as a broker, trust is important for them"

"Hmm…did your friend ask for money to be paid first?"

"No Sir…. Yes….I mean he only asks for the down payment as operational cost"

"How much?"

"5 million dollars and another 5 million in the next 3 months"

Mr. Joseph thinking for a while after hears the price

"Fine, you can take the money from my account. I already give you full authorities on this deal anyway. Here's the account number, username, and the password. There's currently about 20 million dollars fund there, I will add 2 million more to that account later"

Mr. Joseph writes the account number and the password on a piece of paper and handed it to John.

"I will transfer the money right away so my friend can start looking for the goods we want immediately, Sir"

"Yes, thanks for your hard work, John"

John gives the salute to Mr. Joseph and leaves the room to carry out his duty. He sits on his desk and opens the computer and access the internet banking site. With the data that Mr. Joseph just gave him recently, he transfers 5 million dollars to Ding Wei's account as down payment for the goods he orders to him. After the transfer finished, he takes the phone and calls Ding Wei again.

"Hello, brother Wei"

"Ah hello brother John…what's up?"

"I just transfer to your account, the money for the down payment for our business. Please check it"

"Wait a minute…let me check it first"

"Okay"

After waiting for a couple minutes, Ding Wei speaking again in the phone

"Hello…brother John…you still there?"

"Yes, I'm still here. How?"

"I've checked my account and already see the money. Thank you, with this money I can start search order to my connection. Please wait for good news from me, I hope I can find it sooner"

"That's my hope too, brother Wei"

"Alright…see you later, brother John"

"Goodbye brother Wei"

After saying goodbye, John hung up the phone and lean on his chair. Although he trusts his friend, there's still a little worry about what if Ding Wei fail to find the goods he looking for? Can he get the money back? John just realizes that he hasn't discussed this matter with Ding Wei before. The second thing that bothers his mind, if Ding Wei fails that means young miss life is in jeopardize. Should he think about the backup plan in case if Ding Wei fail to deliver the goods? But what backup plan can be made on such a delicate matter? He doesn't know any other brokers that can provide the goods he needs except his friend, Ding Wei.
