Here Xiao Yue was happily teasing Xiao Yu, but her mind had been paying attention to Zhao Peng, Xiao Zhan and the others, pricking up her pink ears and listening to the conversation between them without interruption, after all, it was also about his own interests. Zhao Peng's arrival, Xiao Yue and the senior management had already expected it, and they knew its intentions even better. Xiao Yue's previous proposal to hoard a large number of earth-shaking thunders, and did not sell them in large quantities at one time, was also to wait for this moment to come!

"Cough!" After Xiao Yue retreated, Mr. Zhao and Xiao Zhan had a few more words, then coughed lightly, stood up and arched his hand at Xiao Zhan, and said with a smile: "Patriarch Xiao, I came to your family this time, mainly because I had something to discuss!"

"Hehe, Mr. Zhao, if you have something to say, if you can, the Xiao family will definitely not refuse. Xiao Zhan didn't dare to slack off on the head of the Mitre auction house, and hurriedly stood up and said politely, although he knew his intentions, but the kung fu on the surface was still in place.

"Then open the skylight and say something bright, for the sky-shaking thunder made by your family, our Mitre Auction House is very interested in it, I wonder if Patriarch Xiao can transfer its manufacturing method to our auction house?" Zhao Peng smiled slightly and said his intentions.

When these words fell, some of the high-ranking families and young children in the hall were in a commotion, no one was a fool, and naturally understood that after the manufacturing method was transferred, the interests of the family would inevitably be damaged!

However, in comparison, the three elders looked indifferent, and Xiao Yue in the corner of the watch secretly praised the old fox!

"Ahem... This, it doesn't seem to be good, after all, everyone is not stupid... Cough... This is undoubtedly not in the interests of our Xiao family, and I hope to understand..."Hearing this, Xiao Zhan coughed lightly, shook his head in embarrassment, and refused without hesitation.

Zhao Peng smiled lightly, and he was not surprised that the other party would refuse, they didn't have much hope when they first made this kind of request, and the reason why they still put it forward was just the speculative nature of businessmen, who liked to test the one-in-ten-thousandth opportunity, and it was not a pity to be rejected.

Shaking his head slightly, Zhao Peng then opened his mouth to say the real bottom line: "It's in Xia Menglang, although it is impossible to give us the manufacturing method to the auction house, but we are not unable to cooperate for a win-win situation! Our Mitre Auction House Hill can act as an agent for the sales of the zuò Earthquake Thunder made by your family in other cities of the empire, presumably Patriarch Xiao also knows the channel advantages of my Mitre family, and this is precisely the shortcoming of your family, so why can't we work together to make a lot of money? I think with the wisdom of Patriarch Xiao, I may not be able to think of this layer!" ”

"Haha...!Mr. Zhao said it well, indeed... Our Xiao family has the goods, and your auction house has a way, this cooperation is good......! You must know that you are just a middleman to resell it for us, except for a little travel fee, but the goods are out of us, if you mention too much... That doesn't seem to be very kind!"

Xiao Zhan first laughed approvingly, and then pretended to be very embarrassed, and said with some embarrassment. This time Xiao Yue, who was at the bottom, couldn't help but quietly give him a thumbs up!

The corners of Zhao Peng's mouth twitched, and his gaze swept over the other three elders of the Xiao family, seeing that they looked completely indifferent and silent with Xiao Zhan's horse at the head of the horse. He already understood that the Xiao family might have expected his arrival today, and even premeditated it!

In fact, if it weren't for the fact that he didn't bother to come to the door and whisper to ask for cooperation, when they first saw the violence generated by the earth-shaking thunder, their Mitre family had already started to make people start reverse research and development. It's a pity that there is not much progress, except for a few people who were killed due to improper disassembly at the beginning, and then after disassembling it, it was found that the structure of the projectile body was extremely simple, and the core gunpowder They also found that these components were not valuable, but the proportions of its components were extremely complex and difficult to distinguish.

And this, it is to blame Xiao Yue, a black-hearted guy, at the beginning, in order to prevent the family from being a hand, and even more afraid that others would quickly study the composition ratio of gunpowder, he added a lot of other useless things to it, but it did not affect the power of gunpowder. This makes it difficult for others to study dialysis in a short period of time, even if they can distinguish the original ingredients of these things.

But there are benefits, but it is not the style of the Mitre family if you don't take a bite, and sighed secretly in your heart, in Zhao Peng's own opinion, I am afraid that I will be slaughtered no matter what! But this can't be helped, after all, the only one who can create earth-shattering thunder now is the Xiao family! Although he was unhappy in his heart, he didn't dare to persecute too much, after all, Xiao Lin and the Imperial Lionheart Marshal Nalan Ji's fateful friendship was still very much cared about by the Mitre family behind him! However, he secretly decided in his heart that after he went back, he must do his best to arrange for others to find a way to find out the manufacturing method of the earth-shaking thunder, otherwise he would be too controlled by others.

"That'...... Mr. Zhao, do you still want to cooperate? Actually, you can seriously think about it before deciding, we are not in a hurry, we are really not in a hurry, hehe......" Seeing that Zhao Peng's face was cloudy, Xiao Zhan happily added again, and the three elders around him nodded very cooperatively.

Looking at the shameless appearance of the Xiao family, although Zhao Peng was full of slander in his heart, he forced a gentle smile on his face, and said in a slightly stiff tone: "Then I don't know how much commission Xiao Chang thinks is reasonable? If it's too low, the benefits of our Mitre auction venue are not big, then... It's better not to do it!"

"Haha... Mr. Zhao, please rest assured, you go and inquire, who in the entire Utan City does not know that our Xiao family is the most kind, even if he loses, he will definitely not let his partners suffer! At a fixed price, our Xiao family only accepts one hundred and eighty gold coins, and the rest is yours, how about it!" Xiao Zhan straightened his face and said very arrogantly, and the righteous look almost patted his chest and swore to death.

Zhao Peng's face turned black, a mouthful of old blood almost spurted out, his eyes stared at Xiao Zhan, and he said in a deep voice: "Patriarch Xiao! We are cooperating with sincerity, can't you also show your sincerity? How much does this thing cost, everyone is not stupid, after so long, they already know it! To put it bluntly, this thing has no value at all except for the manufacturing method! At most, we will pay you a hundred gold coins each, and we are just sorry if it is too much... Hmph!"

"Hey, hey... Mr. Zhao! You really said one thing right, that is, the most valuable manufacturing method is in our hands, at present, no one on this continent except our Xiao family can make earth-shaking thunder, if you are not satisfied and do not cooperate, it is okay, anyway, the empire is not only your Mitre family has a wide range of channels, it is a big deal that we can find someone to cooperate again! Don't tell me any bullshit sincerity, you businessmen will also talk about this? A hundred gold coins, then you might as well send the beggars directly!" Seeing that the other party directly cut the price by nearly half as soon as he opened his mouth, Xiao Zhan also laughed angrily, pointing at the other party and sneering on the spot without showing any face.

"Then Patriarch Xiao shouldn't give me anything like one hundred and eight gold coins, let alone treat us as Kaizi, at least give a 'reasonable' price!" Zhao Peng was also stubborn, sneering at Xiao Zhan and directly pushed back.

As the two of them spoke coldly, the atmosphere in the entire welcome hall suddenly cooled down, except for Xiao Yu, who was still ignorant, and the three elders who were old, the rest of the people didn't even dare to say a word, even if a thin needle fell to the ground at this time, everyone could probably hear it clearly.

Seeing this, Xiao Zhan also felt that the heat should be about the same, and no matter how he roasted it, it might backfire, forcing Zhao Peng to be anxious, and it would not be good to beat the chicken and eggs in the end.

"So be it... After all, we have been cooperating for so many years, and it hurts our feelings too much to care about these! Friendship price, one hundred and fifty gold coins, no less!" Waving his hand at Zhao Peng, Xiao Zhan said with a painful face, people who don't know still think that he is righteous.

Zhao Peng didn't directly refute this time, but groaned slightly, he was still barely able to accept this price, and shook his head with a wry smile at the moment, and said: "Okay, then one hundred and fifty gold coins, but Patriarch Xiao, you must ensure that the supply is sufficient, and you can't do less or delay! This is the minimum requirement!"

"Haha... This is easy to say, Mr. Zhao, don't worry, with the credibility of my Xiao family, I guarantee that you will be satisfied!" Xiao Zhan seemed to change his face at this moment, and he was hearty and laughed, as if he was not the one who sang black face just now.

"yes... Yes, Mr. Zhao is happy to cooperate!" Several elders no longer pretended to be deep at this time, and also laughed with a smile on their faces.

Seeing that the faces of Zhao Peng and his subordinates became more and more black, the corners of their mouths twitched......

This same scene also made the younger generation of the Xiao family's children stunned, as if something was broken in their hearts, they could see the true face of these elders today without a lower limit!

Xiao Yue in the corner smiled like a little fox, making Xiao Yu blink and look at him with doubts, completely unable to understand what was wrong with him.

No wonder he was so happy, after all, the completion of this large transaction also meant that his pocket was going to skyrocket again! I couldn't help but wonder if I wanted to change to a bigger ring, otherwise I wouldn't be able to put down so many gold coins! In fact, compared to those easy-to-use crystal cards, he preferred to hold these yellow and clear cuties directly, and this kind of quirk also made Xiao Lin and others angry.

Taking a deep breath and calming down the urge to run away in his heart, Zhao Peng's eyelids stiffened and smiled bitterly at Xiao Zhan: "Okay, Patriarch Xiao really deserves to be the patriarch, this 'heart cultivation' is extraordinary, you win!"

"Haha... Mr. Zhao is polite, let's just stay and dine together today!" As if he didn't hear the resentment in the other party's words, Xiao Zhan happily accepted the other party's appreciation and invited with a laugh.

"No, I still have a lot of things to do today, so I can't stay for long. Patriarch Xiao set the delivery date of the first batch of Heaven-shattering Thunder, and then notify us of the auction house, and we can officially sign the contract!" Mr. Zhao shook his head, rejected Xiao Zhan's 'kindness', and went straight to the farewell.

"Oh... That's a pity!Mr. Zhao, go slowly, welcome you to come again when you have time, the door of the Xiao family will be open at any time!" Xiao Zhan saw that the other party had made up his mind, but he was not reluctant, and his invitation was just a polite remark.

"Stay...!" Zhao Peng said, just about to turn around and leave, but suddenly paused again, and hesitated to Xiao Zhan: "By the way, Patriarch Xiao! By the way, I would like to remind you, it is said that the royal family is also very interested in your earth-shaking thunder, you should be careful, after all, as the ruler of the empire, I am afraid that you can't talk as well as us!"

Zhao Peng's voice fell, the entire hall was suddenly a little silent, and the faces of several high-level Xiao Zhan were also a little solemn, if what Zhao Peng said was true, then the situation was indeed a little bad! After all, the royal family was different from the Mitre Auction House, as the de facto rulers of this empire, if they really made such a request, then they really couldn't even resist and refuse.

"Thank you Mr. Zhao for the reminder, Xiao Zhan remembered!" frowning and silent for a few breaths, Xiao Zhan raised his head and arched his hand at Zhao Peng, and thanked him sincerely.

"You're welcome, then I'm leaving!" Zhao Peng nodded, didn't say anything more, also arched his hand, and led his subordinates to lift their feet and leave.

"Patriarch, I want to send Mr. Zhao!" Xiao Yue, who had been hiding in the corner and watching the play silently, suddenly stood up and spoke to Xiao Zhan, with a hint of inexplicability in her eyes.
