Chapter 49
Ban's Manor. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Wan Xiang Dao sat on a chair in the living room, his fingertips lightly tapping the silver-shiny invitation on the table, and a trace of uncertainty flashed across his face.
Please note that paper made from plant fibres is not yet widely available in mainland Ireland. Compared with the humble animal skin invitation, the sincerity of the delicate metal invitation is relatively a lot more!
Durant Auction House Settles? Are you trying to tease me?
Wan Xiangdao took the invitation with both hands and swept his eyes, and suddenly felt that there were ten thousand wild horses galloping in his heart.
Wanxiang Dao found that he really underestimated the shamelessness of the Durant auction house, how can you still have the face to run over?
It is worth mentioning that Durant Auction House was the first person to establish cooperation with Ban's Manor, and with its help, it became an instant hit, making Ban's Manor's potions known to everyone in Stamm's territory.
Later, the Durant auction house hijacked this favor and pulled the hind legs of the Ban Manor, changed the potion, defaulted on the gold coins obtained from the auction, and even whimsically wanted to enter the Ban Manor!
Of course, Wanxiang Dao didn't bother to pay attention to Durant's shameless face after seeing it, and directly transferred the sale of potions to the Thorn Kao Capital, and cooperated with Schiller in three or seven accounts.
After Wanxiang Dao resolutely severed cooperation, the Durant Auction House did not believe in evil, and relied on the magical plants stolen by strangers to barely make a batch of potions for auction, and the effect of the potions was very reluctant! After several fools, the eyes of the masses were bright, and they finally believed that the news of the falling out between the Durant Auction House and the Ban Manor was secretly circulating, and for a while, the Durant Auction House was once again uncared for! Their business became plummeting, and they could never return to their heyday.
Now, Wanxiang Dao rubbed the invitation in hand, his brows furrowed, and his expression was a little trance-like. To be honest, he doesn't look down on Durant Auction House anymore, the key is that it is a few powerful nobles in Stam's territory who are lobbyists for it!
Yes, Wanxiang Dao admits that he doesn't look down on this little bit of oil and water in Stam's territory, but a few local snakes in Stam's territory can naturally not be evil.
After all, on the same territory of Lord Stamm, Wanxiang Dao may not be able to use people's people! For example, sharing information, warning of enemy attacks, or something. Taking a step back, it is their own rescue of Xiaohua and their interests first, and they can still be friends if they apologize! They want interests, hehe, how can there be great benefits in cooperating with their own Ban Manor?
※※※※※※※※※
Stam Territory, Alchemy Rose Street.
A group of people from Universal Road stood outside the door of the familiar and unfamiliar Sophia Hotel, different from the anticipatory curiosity of Dino and his group, Universal Road was embarrassed.
Just half a year ago, he led the army of the Lord's Mansion to rescue Xiaohua from Kvejin in this hotel, and it can be said that he offended a large number of powerful people in this territory. Today, on behalf of the Ban estate, he sat down with this group of nobles to discuss cooperation.
Wanxiang Dao looked deeply at the signboard of the previously unattainable Sophia Hotel, and his determination to pursue power in his heart became even stronger! Without strength, this group of people would not take care of themselves at all!
Wanxiang walked into the Sophia Hotel, led by a beautiful waitress, to a luxurious suite on the top floor. In the large room of this brightly lit classroom, he met several people who were impressed: the old smoker, the one-eyed dragon, and the noblewoman!
After the enchanting lady sitting on the side saw Wanxiang Dao come in and sit down, Shi Ran got up and introduced Wanxiang Dao one by one with a smile: "Bambates, this is the old man Helian, he has all the slaves in his hands;
In the end, the noble lady stared at Wanxiang Dao with a pair of watery peach blossom eyes, and her tone was ambiguous: "Bambets, my sister's name is Sophia, you can also call me Second Lady!"
Wan Xiangdao hurriedly bent down and handed over a respectful greeting: "Second lady, hello!"
This action suddenly made the noblewoman's face instantly red and white, and she clenched her fists with all her might, forcing the dissatisfaction in her heart.
The faces of the old man Mu and the old man Helian next to him were tense, and they were trying their best to hold back their smiles, because Sophia, a woman, hated being called "Second Lady" the most, and she couldn't straighten up and become the eldest lady of the lord's mansion It has always been her reverse scale.
It's a pity that Wanxiang Dao, who looked down and thought about it, didn't notice this small detail at all. His heart was still shocked by the origins of these people: a big boss in the slave business, a leader of the underworld, and the second lady of the last lord's mansion.
After all, as an upper-class person, how could the second lady come by her own temper, no, her jade hand was raised and patted a few times, and a woman with a leadership temperament walked in outside the door, and approached Wanxiang Dao with a smile.
"Bambats, this is the current ruler of Durant's auction house, Miss Devile. The second lady faced Wanxiangdao, who was sitting beside her, and raised her hand with a smile to introduce.
Wanxiang Dao snorted coldly, moved his body slightly on the chair, and said lightly: "Durant Auction House?
"My Ban's Manor is not a kitten or a puppy, you Durant Auction House can come and go at a moment's notice!
Devile stood there and her lungs were about to explode when she heard it, and she looked straight at Wanxiang Dao, who was sitting there too lazy to look at herself. What about good manners, even if you reject you, is it so straightforward, and how can this make you step down?
The second lady sitting on the side was stunned, and the old man Helian, who was smoking, couldn't come back to his senses for a long time with a cigarette stick in his mouth. The one-eyed dragon's old man Mu touched his chin and looked very playful. The second lady covered her small mouth with an incredulous look. It's really Wanxiang Dao who doesn't play cards according to the aristocratic routine, and he doesn't plan to save a little face for Devile at all!
"Bambates, you... After Devile reacted, her face became hideous, and she stared at Wanxiang Dao with resentment but couldn't speak. When had she ever been humiliated like this?
"If you're really just trying to mediate for Durant's auction house, then you're wrong, my Ban Manor won't be bitten twice by a dog!"
Wan Xiangdao stood up and patted his buttocks, looked at the second lady meaningfully and said, and walked towards the door without looking back. He had been glancing at Devile the whole time.
"Bambets, please wait a minute!" the second lady watched Wanxiang Dao step out of the threshold without hesitation, and hurriedly waved to stop him loudly.
Wanxiang Dao, who was facing away from them, raised his eyebrows, and the stone hanging in his heart finally fell to the ground. He bet right, these bigwigs can't just come for the mediation of Durant Auction House, there must be other interests!
Devil, who was not treated by Wanxiang, was politely invited out, and a group of people from Wanxiangdao sat down again to chat. After some careful experimentation, they finally cut to the chase.
"Bambats, to tell you the truth, we hope to work with Ban Manor with great sincerity, and there are potions about Ban Manor. The second lady said with a smile on her face towards Wanxiangdao, and Old Man Mu and Old Man Helian both nodded to indicate that their wishes were similar.
Wan Xiang Dao's eyes rolled, he was not surprised by the second lady's request for their cooperation, even a blind person could see the popularity of the potion in Ban's Manor! The question was what price they were going to offer?
"Bambats, as long as we can cooperate with each other, we can ensure that Ban's Manor can be unimpeded in Stam territory!" said the old man Helian took a deep puff of cigarette with a cigarette stick in his mouth, then exhaled a white smoke and said slowly.
"Then what do I have to give?" Wanxiang asked, crossing Erlang's legs, surprised.
The second lady looked at each other, and a hint of suspicion flashed in their eyes, because they didn't expect things to go so smoothly. This owner of Ban's Manor is so easy to speak.
"Ahem, Bambets, how much are you going to give us?" asked the second lady, covering her mouth and chuckling, expectantly.
Wan Xiang Dao didn't speak, but calmly raised one of the index fingers of his right hand and shook it, as if he was sure that the price he offered would not be rejected.
Sure enough, the second lady and they looked at each other and smiled, this little gardener is quite generous, how good it would be if it was like this earlier?!
"Bambats, we won't let you suffer if we take a share alone, and you will find yourself more prescient in the future!" said Old Man Mu with a shake of his head, obviously satisfied with the deal in front of him.
"Hehe, I think one thing you can be mistaken, it's that you all have a share, not each of you has a share!" Wanxiang Dao reluctantly corrected with a face, and he deliberately emphasized the tone of "one part".
The second lady's smile froze, the old man Helian stopped the cigarette stick in his hand, and the old man Mu looked at Wanxiang Dao with a smile. How can the three talents be divided? This manor owner can't brain-draw?
Universal Dao ignored their ugly expressions, in his mind he had given enough of his share, because Ban's Manor was a business that was unique in mainland Ireland! If it weren't for showing their kindness, they wouldn't have been able to get closer to him!
"By the way, I also want to be a part of the Sophia Hotel!" Wanxiang Dao frowned and added, not feeling that he was asking too much.
"Bambats, you mean to get a share of Ban's Manor in exchange for a part of Sophia's Inn?" I heard you right?" the second lady looked at Wanxiang Dao with a smile, and teased, she suspected that her ears had heard it wrong, or that the little gardener in front of her had gone crazy!
Wan Xiang Dao nodded when he saw this, and there was not the slightest impulse on his face to change his words. On the contrary, he even had a hint of flesh pain on his face.
The second lady and the others finally came back to their senses, their faces were full of tears and laughter, and they kept feeling in their hearts that young people really dare to think about anything!
After a long time, the old man Helian pulled out the cigarette stick in his mouth and said quietly: "Bambets, I promised you, but you are taking my share, and they have nothing to do with the second lady!"
When the second lady heard this, she hurriedly raised her hand to stop the old man Helian, but was stopped by a vague look from him. Only then did she realize why Old Man Mu was sitting there without saying a word. Hehe, what two old foxes!
Wan Xiangdao was depressed for a while, he stared at the old man Helian and struggled in his heart, he always felt that he had lost a lot!
Okay, the preliminary agreement has been reached, and the second lady and they have avoided it, leaving only the old man Helian pulling Wanxiang Dao to discuss many details.
It was getting dark, and the little pigs stood outside waiting, and of course, anyone could see their impatience. After all, whoever waits for a long time will be anxious, although Wanxiang Dao has already asked someone to pass the word several times and say, "It's soon, it's fast!"
"He hasn't come out yet?"
Crane nodded angrily at Taigariel's question, obviously dissatisfied with the grammal dragging.
Taigariel looked up at the dark shadow cast by the upstairs light on the window, his eyes flickering, and he felt like he had overlooked something.
The next moment, Taigale actually walked into Sophia's hotel, and when he encountered an obstacle on the way, he took out his wand and knocked it down with impunity, and after some tossing, he finally reached the room where they were discussing in Wanxiangdao.
Then, when the door was slammed open, there sat a young man with a cigarette stick and a man who looked like a universal road sitting by the window, looking panicked, apparently not expecting someone to break in so quickly.
Crane followed behind the taigare, and he witnessed the scene in front of him, where he didn't know that Universal Dao had already been transferred, and the back of the curtain did not forget to leave two puppets to mislead them, making them mistakenly believe that Universal Dao had been in this room all along. No wonder, they all sent people to send them messages again and again.
"Who are you, how dare you go wild at our Sophia Hotel?" a superintendent-looking figure heard the commotion and ran over and waved at Crane, vowing that he would never let the group go easily.
"Hehe, you're wrong, not only do I dare to go wild here, but I also dare to kill people!" Klein lowered his head and sneered vigorously, exuding a palpitating aura all over his body!
"Ah, no!"
Under Taigari's terrifying gaze, the two impostors and the director who had finished drinking were shot into a sieve by countless golden sword qi, while Crane stroked a gray long-handled broadsword and muttered, "It seems that you really haven't learned to have a long memory!"
As a result, a killing frenzy set off by Klein began to unfold in Stam territory, and it once again made people relive the memories of blood and tears years ago!
On a thoroughfare thousands of miles away from Sophia's inn, a red beast cart wrapped in blue cloth sped away. In its carriage lay a transparent ice coffin, in which Wanxiang Daozheng slept with his eyes closed, looking unconscious.
Next to the ice coffin sat two wrinkled old men, their hands resting on the ice coffin to maintain the transmission of mana. Looking at the two black magic brooches on their chests, they are obviously real magisters!
The conceited Universal Dao miscalculated, he thought that he saw through the idea of the old man Helian and his group going around in circles to cooperate, and thought that the reconciliation of the Durant Auction House was just a façade, but he didn't expect that everything was a false shot, and the plan was just to lure him over and kidnap him!
It can be described as a plan in a plan, a game in a game, and Wanxiang Road can be planted this time. Now the question is, how can he break the game? No artifact, no support, just him!
