Evil Emperor Zun

Chapter 1218 Negotiations
Not long after, Duanmuzhi and Yuning, who were fully armed again, stood together in Chu Tianyao's room.

"I've often heard that the Nine Venerables are suave and suave, and they are dragons and phoenixes among men. At such a young age, they made a name for themselves in the Hall of Nine Nethernesses. Seeing them today really deserves their reputation. Your presence here really makes our auction house flourish..."

As soon as Duanmuzhi opened his mouth, there was a series of flattery, his face blushed and his heart skipped a beat, which made Yu Ning very surprised.Unexpectedly, this Prince of the Silver Fox Clan, who has always had his eyes above his head, would be unequivocal in flattering others.

Chu Tianyao leaned leisurely on the sofa, flicking the tea leaves in the cup with the tea lid.

"Okay, there's no need to say more about these polite words, just tell me why you're here." He took a sip from his teacup, looking relaxed, "Don't waste each other's time."

Duanmuzhi took advantage of the opportunity and sat down on the sofa opposite, and gently and deftly changed the subject: "Nine Venerables, these are not polite words, they are all my sincere words. Your name, not only me, but our entire auction house I admire you. So this trip to find you is precisely to save your time."

"For special guests, we also have special trading methods. Presumably Nine Venerables, have you read the instruction manual?" He moved his eyes slightly, and quickly swept across the manual spread out on the table without leaving a trace take back.

"If you have any fancy items, you can tell me directly here. You don't need to pay now, just ask for a reserve price. At that time, I will definitely help you keep it... You know, as an auctioneer, you still have Lots of 'convenience'."

Chu Tianyao smiled lightly, but ignored his hint: "Before coming here, I personally contacted the person in charge of the auction house, and his answer was that everything should follow the procedure. Why can't even your boss do it?" thing," he leaned over slightly, and looked at him meaningfully, "You're a 'fake' temporary worker, but can you do it?"

Duanmuzhi froze, but when the atmosphere in the room began to tilt in an abnormal direction, he immediately returned to smiling.

"Since the Nine Venerables have seen through it, then I won't hide it. Yes, just because I am a temporary worker, if I don't take root, I can walk away even if something happens. After the auction is completed, the seller will be responsible No matter how much people want to pursue it, they will never dare to directly trouble you, the Nine Venerables... In this way, it will be convenient for you and me."

"Yes, temporary workers..." Chu Tianyao savored the word, with a deep smile, and slowly increased his tone, "It also includes the convenience of instigating the deity to fight with the Lieyan Ghost Emperor, and then leaving... 'What?"

This time, no matter how well Duanmuzhi cultivated himself, he froze completely.

Yu Ning, who had been standing behind the sofa with his head bowed, looked like a real waiter, his heart was beating wildly, and all his thoughts were "It's over, it's over".

After a while, Duanmuzhi finally came back to his senses, twitched the corners of his mouth that were a little stiff, and sat upright reluctantly, maintaining the residual posture.

"Nine Venerables, let me tell you the truth. I hinted at you earlier that the Lieyan Ghost Emperor is also here because... If you also intend to bid for Phoenix Tears, you have to pay attention to this key opponent! As for the advance The transaction is also for the sake of safety..."

This move can be regarded as a desperate move, directly stating half of the purpose.Next, it depends on whether the Nine Venerables are interested in Phoenix Tears, and whether they will be tempted by this deal...

Although Chu Tianyao had already guessed that all this pretending was because of the unprovoked "Phoenix Tears", but when the other party admitted it himself, he still couldn't help but sneer secretly.

These guys actually counted themselves in...

After a deliberately prolonged silence, he slowly put down his teacup, and replied concisely:

"I just want to buy a quiet one."

This sentence is to tell the other party plainly that he doesn't want Phoenix Tears, and he also hopes that no matter how many things they do later, he will not implicate himself again.

Duanmuzhi is obviously also a smart person, after hearing what he said, he didn't insist on it.After saying a few more polite words, he bowed and saluted, and left with Yuning.

Chu Tianyao looked at their backs indifferently, with a mocking arc on his lips, he picked up the instruction manual on the table and turned to the last page.

What he really wanted was this fragment of the Tianbaodingding.

But if I told the fake auctioneer, I'm afraid he would raise the price on the spot, use the fragments of the treasure tripod, tie himself into the same boat, and ask him to help him keep Phoenix Tears.

He has always hated being threatened... In this case, it's better not to let the other party see his cards clearly.

In addition, he had already spent an additional 82 billion on the previous "Hunyuan Broken", which already exceeded his budget for gifts.He will not participate in the whole subsequent auction.The final cost of Baoding fragments must also be controlled within 2 million!
2 million, should be more than enough for one fragment...

……

According to Xilingchen's instructions, Liu Mo walked around the downstairs hall before returning to the second floor.

None of the first-class guests in the private rooms had any intention of receiving a stranger, so she had to go to the trading hall to look for prey.

With the identity of the secretary of the president of the Lianghu Chamber of Commerce, she opened the chatterbox of many people smoothly and had a pleasant conversation.When she went back, she already had a handful of business cards in her pocket.

After the re-emergence of the Lianghu Chamber of Commerce, Xilingchen has always been a prominent figure in the business world.Especially after today, after defeating the veteran tycoon Jia Dafu in the real estate market, his worth and reputation have naturally risen to a higher level.He wants to know others, and others want to know him even more.

Everyone who can be a boss is very smart.The current Lianghu Chamber of Commerce is like a big ship in full swing. Everyone wants to borrow their sails and get a share of the pie.

Under Liu Mo's intentional hint, they regarded her as "someone who has a different relationship with President Xiling".After all, they have seen and heard a lot of anecdotes about the boss and the secretary.

Before getting to know the chairman, it is also necessary to establish a good relationship with his secretary.In order to cooperate smoothly in the future, they must give Liu Mo some "small gestures".

The bosses are naturally extravagant.Although these red envelopes are not enough to bid for the Rabbit Ear Cup, they are definitely worth a year's salary of an ordinary person.

You can earn such a large amount of extra money by attracting a few clients, Liu Mo couldn't hide the smile on her lips.Now her resentment towards Xilingchen has disappeared, after all, they are a community of interests, he is good, and she is also good.

As soon as she reached the second floor, she suddenly saw two figures flashing in front of her, which seemed to be the auctioneer and the red-eyed waiter from before.

The two looked very familiar, chatting all the way, not knowing what to say.The auctioneer was better, but the red-eyed girl would peek at the VIP room next to her every few steps, acting like a thief.

The two of them... what are they doing?Out of curiosity, Liu Mo hid behind the wall and listened to their conversation from a distance.

The two got closer and closer, and the auctioneer could clearly hear a long sigh.

"It seems that the Nine Venerables really don't want Phoenix Tears."

The red-eyed girl, Yu Ning, was very anxious at this time, and kept circling around him: "Then what should I do? In this store, the only person who can be equal to Lieyan Guidi in terms of financial resources and status at the same time is probably the only one." Nine Venerables! He refuses to bid, no one will help us hold back the Flame Ghost Emperor, then the last Phoenix Tears... Phoenix Tears..."

"What are you in a hurry for?" Duan Muzhi glanced at her impatiently, "If you still can't find someone to take pictures in the end, it's a big deal, I will take pictures myself!"

Yu Ning pointed out with a straight face: "But, how do you have so much money?"

Duanmuzhi couldn't hold back his face for a while, and pushed her forehead: "You 'little rabbit' bastard, you have to tear me down, don't you?"

His majestic prince, in terms of noble status and elegant manners, could have been as good as anyone in this VIP room!But now that he has been subdued for a long time, he feels that even his own temperament is moving closer to Nuyanbei.This is simply... Is it tolerable or unbearable!

"I don't believe it anymore. Taking advantage of the next filming, we still have a little time to ask each VIP room! We can always find someone to take the blame for us."

"What are you doing in a daze?" He winked at Yu Ning, then raised his chin towards the nearest VIP room, "Why don't you hurry up and knock on the door?"

When Yu Ning timidly accepted the order and started knocking on the door, Liu Mo, who was hiding aside, retracted her head again, leaning against the wall and falling into deep thought.

Just now... I seem to have heard some terrible news...?
……

Although she couldn't figure out what the two monsters were thinking about pretending to be the staff of the auction house, but after returning to the room, she immediately told Xilingchen about it.

Xilingchen didn't answer her question, instead, after a short thought, he asked her to invite those two people to the room for a talk.

When Duanmuzhi stepped into the door, the first thing he felt was a kind of... treacherous business negotiation.

"Mr. Xiling, you must have won a business war. You must be proud of yourself. Why are you here looking for me?"

He considered his words carefully, while sitting down on the sofa, his heart was still full of vigilance.

Perhaps, this is the aura of the businessman.

Even if he doesn't have to say anything, just sitting in front of you, you can feel that he is calculating you.

He doesn't understand the conspiracy in the mall.So now the only thing he can do is to keep his wallet tight...

Xilingchen also seemed to have a panoramic view of his embarrassment, and smiled lightly, calmly.

"Smart people don't speak dark words. I know that your goal is the auction item 'Phoenix Tears' in the second half. For this, you need someone to help you restrain the flame ghost emperor. Your ideal candidate is the Nine Venerables of the Nine Nether Palace, It's a pity he turned you down, so you're now struggling to find a new assistant."

"You..." The vigilance in Duanmuzhi's heart rose again by a few percentage points, "How do you know?"

Are all human merchants this scary?I didn't say anything just now, why was he seeing through most of my thoughts?

Before he could ask, Xilingchen spoke out again.

"I can help you."

"I remember a popular saying in the auction house that money that has not been sold is not considered a real loss. Therefore, it is just a price increase. If I can walk Jia Dafu once, I can also walk others a second time."

"Bidding for the VIP room only has the price, not the status. As long as I bid here and get entangled with the Lieyan Ghost Emperor, he will probably think that the one competing with him is the Nine Masters."

"I will stop before he gives up. There is a lot of extra money for nothing. After the auction is over, he will probably go to the Nine Venerables to settle the score. At that time, your goal of 'fighting the snipe and the clam' can also be achieved. "

This is exactly what Duanmu Zhi wanted.Now he couldn't care how Xilingchen knew about it, he just nodded excitedly.

"That's right, that's right! Mr. Xiling is really generous and generous, and he is so anxious about others' needs. No wonder he can stand tall in the shopping mall at such a young age. Then I will thank you here first..."

He was so eager to thank him because he was worried that Xilingchen would make other requests.

However, he was still no match for a young mall veteran.

"I haven't finished." Xi Lingchen smiled lightly, his smile was kind, but inside he was as dangerous as he looked.

"My condition is that I will help you raise the price, and I will definitely not let Lie Yan Guidi dominate alone, but after the matter is completed, I will take one-tenth of the total price as my reward .”

"One-tenth of the transaction price? Are you crazy?" Duanmuzhi was so startled that he almost jumped up, "You just sat in the VIP room and raised the price, and you didn't actually sell the funds. What did you pay? You directly Ask for one-tenth of the total price... Is your appetite too big?"

Xi Lingchen sneered: "To put it bluntly, you just think the money is not worth it?"

Duanmuzhi nodded fiercely: "Yes! If it's just to raise the price, even if I just open a VIP room, I'll call her..." He pulled Yuning's shoulder and pushed forward, "I'll tell her to stay in and give the room to you." If I raise the price, I can still hold back the Flame Ghost Emperor, why do I have to pay so much money to invite you?"

Xi Lingchen ignored his anger, it seemed that the more anxious his opponent was, the more pleasing he was.

"Yes, you feel that you have lost money when I take this money. So what if the same price is used to buy your head?"

Duanmuzhi's face suddenly turned cold, and his ten fingers resting on the table were also tense: "What do you mean?"

If he was just an ordinary human businessman, I wouldn't be too jealous of him.What he is afraid of now is only the strength of the other party who is also in the sky-reaching realm...

Xilingchen smiled.This smile was mocking Jia Dafu before.Duanmuzhi never thought that when he faced it in person, his smile would be so cold and terrifying...

As if, an elegy before the enemy's funeral.

"The conversation you had at the door of the VIP room just now," he took the jade slip from Liu Mo's hand, and briefly showed it to the two of them, "including how to use the Nine Masters to fight against the Flame Ghost Emperor and obtain Phoenix Tears... Unfortunately, it has all been recorded."

"If I give this recording to either of them, I'm afraid they will all be vying for your head?"
