Beastmaster of the Ages - Chapter 5911
[5818: The Lion Opens His Mouth]
“Trade?”
Li Tianming didn’t expect that this ‘competitor’ was quite ‘polite’.
“How do you trade?” Li Tianming asked casually while sitting still.
“It’s not complicated.”
The young man in the golden robe was very proud. This was the confidence from the bottom of his heart brought by his top background.
He stared at Li Tianming’s eyes, especially the ‘golden book’ Hunyuan pupils on the left and right sides, which seemed to be turning faces and pages, and the sense of oppression increased invisibly.
Then, he said word by word: “I will give you the Mo Xingyun sacrifice, and you will leave here directly.”
Li Tianming was naturally not affected by this kind of Hunyuan pupil oppression. Although they might be about the same age, the other party was just a kid in his eyes.
So, he was a little surprised and said: “Is it that simple?”
“Indeed, it’s that simple.” The young man in the golden robe was quite satisfied with his attitude. After all, Li Tianming did not show any resistance.
“Then, how much will you give me?” Li Tianming asked immediately.
The young man in the golden robe glanced at him and said, “You are Chanbao’s uncle, and you are also my elder. I asked you to go back and rest, but I can’t lose my frame of mind. Here, I am willing to pay 500,000 Mo Xingyun sacrifices. Please explain to Chanbao later that your temporary departure is for personal reasons, not my fault.”
This was quite decent, but Li Tianming was a little disdainful. He leaned back in his chair, shaking the wine glass in his hand, staring at the nectar in the glass, and said casually, “It’s only 500,000 Mo Xingyun sacrifices, you are sending away beggars.”
The young man in the golden robe was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then his golden face slowly became solemn and cold. His aura surged, staring at Li Tianming, his voice was like iron, and he gritted his teeth and said, “Did you hear it wrong? I said 500,000 Mo Xingyun sacrifices, I just need you to leave.”
“Of course I heard it right.” Li Tianming looked around and said seriously, “You also know that I just arrived. This Qushui Banquet is my chance to make friends, integrate into Hunyuanji, build connections, and show myself. Such an opportunity, no amount of money can buy it. As the saying goes, a circle of friends is worth a lot of money. Such an opportunity, at least for me, is much more valuable than the 500,000 Mo Xingyun Festival!”
The young man in the golden robe heard this and wanted to laugh and get angry at the same time, with mixed emotions.
What he wanted to laugh at was that you, a foreigner, were shunned by everyone, and you had a trivial connection! What
made him angry was that he didn’t think that this wide connection was true, because from the beginning of the banquet until now, Li Tianming had never left this seat, let alone communicated with others, and didn’t give him a good face when facing himself. This was not the appearance of building connections at all.
However, when Li Tianming used this rhetoric, his heart quickly cooled down. After thinking about it, he roughly determined that there were two possibilities for Li Tianming’s saying this.
First: He wanted to take the opportunity to ask for a big mouth.
Second: He had ideas about Xue Jingchan!
For the young man in the golden robe, Wen Tianyao, these two possibilities were intolerable, and both were serious provocations to his status and authority!
However, he couldn’t just fight at this Qushui Banquet to let Li Tianming see the pros and cons, and he obviously still had the idea of using this Qushui Banquet to take his relationship with Xue Jingchan to a higher level, so after thinking about it, he still held back the anger in his heart.
Although Li Tianming’s contented look had already made him want to kill him, he held back!
After holding back, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and his voice was empty, and he said lightly: “Li Tianming, do you really recognize me?”
“Of course I know you, you are the Shangyu of Haowen Academy, and your father is a deputy third-rank official, one of the controllers of Haowen Academy. To be honest, I have never seen such a high-ranking imperial official in my life.” After Li Tianming finished speaking, he looked at Wen Tianyao again and said seriously: “So, with your status, if you want to buy me an opportunity to make connections, the price can’t be too shabby, right? To be honest, I really need this opportunity.”
His statement made Wen Tianyao a little confused. Was what he said true or was he teasing himself?
If it was true, then it might be excusable. He knew his status and just wanted to ask for more money. This kind of short-sighted behavior of a villain is stupid, but it is also common.
But if it was teasing himself, it would be several times more angry.
So, Wen Tianyao still decided to give him a chance, so he asked coldly: “Then name your price.”
“Since Brother Wen is so generous, I won’t hide it. I’ll be honest. The price I want is…” Li Tianming stretched out five fingers and said: “Five million Mo Xingyun Offerings.”
There was no way, he was too short of money!
Not only was Zizhen short of money, he had no funds for his own cultivation, and Lin Xiaoxiao also needed a certain amount of Mo Xingyun Offerings.
Five million Mo Xingyun Offerings, although for Zizhen, it was only enough to fill the gap between his teeth, but for Li Tianming and Lin Xiaoxiao, it would still be useful for a while!
It was not easy for Yueli Lian to take out this money, but a nobleman like Wen Tianyao might have it if he gritted his teeth to death?
To put it bluntly, this was indeed Li Tianming’s psychological price. If he was asked to stand up Xue Jingchan for less than five million, he couldn’t do it. After all, as someone’s uncle, he had to have some integrity.
However!
His real psychological price, to Wen Tianyao, was a provocation, an irritation, a lion’s mouth, and a death wish!
Hearing this number, Wen Tianyao’s face changed on the spot. His eyebrows were furrowed, his face was distorted, and the golden book kept turning pages, indicating that he was really turning against him.
He stared at Li Tianming and said coldly, “So, you mean, you are openly competing with me for Chanbao?”
“Don’t get me wrong.” Li Tianming shook his head and said, “Don’t say such unethical words. I am her uncle, and I have a wife and daughter, and there are quite a few of them.”
After that, he said seriously, “In my heart, my opportunity to integrate into the Hunyuanji circle is indeed worth five million. Since it is a transaction, there is a possibility of negotiation or failure. I also know that you are in a high position and it is not easy to offend you, so if you want to bargain for another 100,000 or 200,000, I can accept it, but don’t take it too far. If some rumors are spread, I am afraid that my master and teacher will eat me alive.”
After he explained this, Wen Tianyao found the reason!
This guy doesn’t have ideas about Xuejingchan, this guy is just a money-grubber who wants to open his mouth!
Although it is not extremely hateful, it is hateful enough!
Seizing the opportunity, he directly asked me for 5 million Mo Xingyun Festival, and only gave me 100,000 or 200,000 bargaining space?
If he is really willing to offer this price, he can cut it down by 200,000 yuan!
