395 The farce ends
Tom, a Westerner, made a statement eloquently, but in Para's sight, he found many flaws.
One of the biggest problems is that when Paran's fierce eyes look at this red-haired and blue-eyed guy, the other party's gaze avoids him from time to time, and many times he involuntarily drifts towards Ma Yufei next to him.
“……”
Para, who was aware of these circumstances, already had a conclusion in his heart, and at this time, he was not so surprised by Ma Yufei's presence.
"Are you sure Mr. Meng Fei didn't reveal the truth to you before?"
Para remained silent and continued to follow the established procedure.
"I promise as I sir!"
Tom looked inwardly and replied calmly, but who his eyes were was Ma Yufei who floated to his side again.
And Ma Yufei on the side, obviously saw that this partner was not successful, and the look of innocence on his face flashed, but he also remained calm and continued to smile without saying a word.
"Very good, I have also known the statements of both sides, so let's use actual evidence to speak!"
Para nodded, and when she had each of the parties tell each other to tell what had happened in their own voices, he turned to all of the cargo that had just been unloaded into the docks.
"I'm going to unpack some samples of the goods, Mr. Meng Fei has no opinion, right?"
"No, no."
Meng Fei nodded, without the slightest worry in his heart.
"All the merchants present also please bear witness to see if the goods carried by Mr. Meng Fei are as Mr. Tom said, and there is a problem with the goods."
"Unboxing!"
Under Parra's command, the security team members, who temporarily serve as assistants to maintain order at the scene, skillfully disassemble the samples of various goods in the stacked goods.
"Let's all come and see the quality of these goods and see if they are intact!"
Para not only inspected and inspected the quality of the opened goods himself, but also invited the merchants who were still present and were interested in watching the excitement to participate in it.
"Everyone is an expert on this, and there are some of them who are more professional than me, and I want to hear everyone's judgment."
The merchants present understood that there might not be a strong person to speak to them, but just to check the value of the goods as they are now, they will still be willing to stand up and check it.
"This silk workmanship is good, it is almost comparable to Suzhou material, and if you want to talk about color, you have to fight with it!"
"This silk doesn't feel damp either, it's quite intact, it's good."
"I'm afraid this tea is Wuyi Da Hong Pao, the shape is tightly knotted, and it smells fragrant, at least it has to be regarded as the best grade!"
"It's commendable that the jar is sealed with a bamboo tube, and this preservation method alone requires a lot of Chen Ben, if you want to let it get wet, I'm afraid that the whole ship will sink to the bottom of the sea!"
"This cinnamon ............"
Samples of the goods that were immediately disassembled were circulated among the merchants, and all kinds of comments were confided from the mouths of these merchants who often dealt with these things, and most of them nodded in agreement.
There are few negative remarks about the straw mildew of the barrier caused by the immersion of the inside of the porcelain wooden box, but in the eyes of these experts, it is not a big deal to start with sincerity.
At this point, if everyone still can't figure out who is right and wrong in the end, then they will have to live up to their title of businessman.
"Mr. Tom, it seems that in addition to the porcelain packaging, which is relatively consistent with your statement, the current situation of the rest of Mr. Meng Fei's goods is inconsistent with your statement!"
"And everyone knows that porcelain, unless it is damaged by factors such as violent shaking, there are almost few other factors that cause its quality problems!"
"As for the dampness of its packaging, as a cargo that most people transport in this way, I really can't think of any merchant ship that is porcelain and not like this."
Para slowly gave her judgment, which made the merchants present applaud, and also made the constant tension of the mind feel relieved, and finally someone said a fair word for them.
"Therefore, even if you act according to the contract signed by both of you, they have not actually broken the terms of the contract between you, and as for the loss caused by your belief that the other party is cheating, at most the other party will pay you the cost of repackaging porcelain."
"According to the current cost of packaging in Manila, the total value of labor plus material costs does not exceed one hundred taels."
"Therefore, I think that the contract between you and you is still valid, and Mr. Meng Fei will deduct one hundred taels from the total price of the goods as the cost of Mr. Tom's reloading of porcelain."
"Good! Good! Well judged! ”
If everyone was misled before, and Meng Fei, a newcomer, was a stupid person who liked to play tricks, as Pala slowly restored the facts in front of everyone and proved Meng Fei's innocence, the businessmen present gradually developed some sympathy for Meng Fei and them, as well as the same hatred for the same Chinese people, and cheered for Meng Fei and them.
"Hey, Chief Parako, your judgment is not authentic, there is obviously a problem with the other party's goods, at least the problem of this porcelain is in front of us, we are not wrong to act according to the contract!"
Tom didn't dare to say a word under the aggressive eyes of a bunch of yellow people beside him, but Ma Yufei, who couldn't stand it when he saw that his expectations were disappointed, hurriedly jumped out.
"Ma Yufei, what's going on with this matter, don't you have any points in your heart?"
When Pala saw that Ma Yufei jumped out again, he was angry, staring straight at the other party and saying a word.
If it weren't for Ma Yufei having his own behind him, he would have already arrested this scum among the businessmen and tortured him.
But in the end, Pala still took a step back, although Meng Fei and the others got out of the predicament, but at the same time, they did not continue to track down the truth behind the matter, just to save some face for Ma Yufei.
“…………”
Ma Yufei's heart was empty for a while, and then he looked at everyone's gaze as if he knew everything, and finally he could only walk towards the city without looking back with a blue face.
"Shopkeeper, don't go! Don't leave me! ”
Tom, who is now reduced to a supporting role, as soon as he saw that the main messenger of the matter left, the truth was just a down-and-out Western nobleman, and his heart trembled and hurriedly caught up with the other party's back and left together, he had no way to take out the rest of the money to pay Meng Fei and them.
A joke ended in Ma Yufei's failure, and the funniest part of it was that Ma Yufei was reluctant to pay the deposit before, as well as the businessman's thoughts that he was reluctant to Meng Fei's goods, and finally came back and obediently completed the transaction with Meng Fei.
