Chapter 889: Business Deal
Akhumwang heard the red dragon's evaluation, and his face seemed to have a look of shame, and he sighed softly as he looked at the somewhat luxurious house.
"Mr. has won the award, but now it is not as good as it was back then, this is all to blame for my incompetence, if I lose this time, I am afraid that the whole family will move out of this house, this time my net worth depends on Mr. ”
When he said this, Akhumwang had a rich expression on his face, as if he was making a confession for himself. But Meng Huan Chilong sighed in his heart, Akhumwang is really not a good thing, now it is just a transaction, not to mention what he can pay, but crying poor with an outsider, just to win Meng Huan Chilong's sympathy, and then charge less money, and the price offered by Meng Huan Chilong is actually cheap enough.
Originally, Meng Huan Chilong felt that he would harm Ahomwang, but now he doesn't have any burden in his heart, Ahumwang knows what the final outcome of gambling is, he should have stopped a long time ago, and he should have done it for this family, but he has to make it like this, this is all his own fault.
Now don't cry poor with outsiders, in the eyes of Meng Huan Chilong, he still wants to gamble with money, and wants to decide his fate by gambling. For those who want to make a fortune by gambling, Menghuan Chilong thinks that it is not worthy of sympathy, because you dream of joy falling from the sky, that is, you want to get something for nothing.
Therefore, he didn't speak, but when he arrived at the restaurant, when he was waiting for the food to be served, he said: "Owner, tell me what you know, I can also know who the opponent is, what kind of ability he has, and the price I offered, can you agree?"
Akhomwang smiled hehehe, as if he was not in a hurry about this matter, but frequently persuaded to drink, and it seemed that he was a businessman, but he had a chance to win.
He didn't negotiate the price, but told Meng Huan Chilong about his opponent, who was also a Shura, named Kundalp, in Akhumwang's mouth, this Kundalpu was the bully of the mountain city, robbing other people's property everywhere in the city, and even bullying men and women, which had reached the point of indignation.
Ahomwang seemed to put himself in the trap, not knowing whether it was because of the drinking, or if he was really angry, and when he spoke of excitement, his whole face turned red and his voice became high-pitched.
Menghuan Chilong originally wanted to say a few words, to be a little polite, but seeing that Akhumwang was desperately belittleing Kundalp in order to gain his sympathy, he didn't even bother to say anything, and he and Menghuan Mountain Tiger buried their heads in eating fiercely, you must know that the food of a warrior is amazing, if you let it go, a small mountain beast is no problem.
In the end, the whole scene was Akhomwang talking wildly, but they were eating wildly. Akhumwang, who was excited, seemed to feel different, and slowly stopped, looking at the two people in front of him who were eating and drinking wildly.
Meng Huan Chilong didn't look at him all the time, and when he was full, he raised his head to look at Akhomwang and asked, "Finished?"
Akhomwang nodded instinctively.
"Good. Meng Huan Chilong said: "You can talk about the situation of the gambling fight, what realm of people Kundalp will send to fight this one, do you know?"
It was also at this time that Ahumwang reacted that the person in front of him was a businessman, and he came to gamble to make money, not to act chivalrous, so the conversation became normal.
"Kundalpu himself is the Emperor of Shura, it is said that he is only one step away from the Blood Shura, this person is very confident in doing things, in order to save money, it is estimated that he will go on his own, because I haven't heard the news of him looking for someone, but he is preventing others from helping me, and he wants to bankrupt me. ”
Meng Winding Red Dragon nodded, and then asked, "What kind of evil qi is he best at?"
Ahumwang thought for a moment and said, "Fire, he practices fire, so he has a bad temper, is easily irritable, and likes to work with people, just like an asura. ”
Meng Huan Chilong nodded, but he was thinking in his heart that the person who can slowly put a person in it and finally take away people's property will definitely not be a grumpy person.
"Then I offer the conditions, I don't know if the owner accepts, if not, then we have not negotiated this business, but we are still friends, in the future I come to the mountain city, may have to trouble the owner." His rhetoric is entirely the tone of a businessman.
Ahumwang hesitated for a moment and said, "If you want to borrow a house, there is no problem, and I can ask Ma Linhu to take you over later." If you want to borrow Ma Linhu to help you, you can do it, even if you want a few more people. It's just that the money you want is not high, but I really don't have that much money, can you have less?"
Meng Winding Red Dragon shook his head decisively. "No, I think you have also asked you to correct the dynasty, you know what price they offered, I only need two-thirds of their price, it must not be less, lower than my asking price, I refuse to help you gamble. ”
Seeing that Meng Huan Chilong replied resolutely, Akhum Wang hesitated again, thought for a while and said, "I really don't have that much money, you are a businessman, can I take things as collateral?"
Meng Huan Chilong thought for a moment and said: "Although I am a businessman, I make goods that the war clan country needs, it depends on what you use as collateral, and I can also refuse what is useless to me." ”
Seeing that he answered so resolutely, Ahumwang didn't dare to play more tricks, because now there is really no one to help him, if it weren't for Ma Linhu knowing this Zhan Clan, and this Zhan Clan was still down, he was afraid that this gambling battle would not be able to be carried out, and he would have lost all his property.
Therefore, he was much more honest and said in a low voice: "I really don't have that much money, my main business is a manor outside the city, and I have to leave some money as capital." So, I'll have to mortgage you with a blacksmith's workshop in the city. I don't know how to cast, and I'm not good at business, and the workshop has been closed for a long time, and if you wish, you can give you the title deed now, so that the transaction between us can be established. ”
Hearing this, Meng Huan Chilong couldn't help but feel a move in his heart, he learned the casting technique from Wu Yuanying in the Wuzu Temple, and the fire essence in his body was basically recovered, and he could also use this kind of fire, but he didn't practice it a lot.
The most important thing is to escape with the Wu slaves at that time, and they must have weapons in their hands. But whether it is himself or those slaves to buy a large number of weapons, I am afraid that it will also arouse the suspicion of others, if I can build it myself, it will be very convenient. ”
He tapped his fingers on the table and asked, "How big is your workshop, are there any materials in it, and how much are you going to mortgage?"
Ahomwang quickly replied: "It is also a courtyard, with a shop in front and a workshop in the back, covering an area of about an acre, and there is everything in it, but there is a shortage of people." I would have liked to have you live there, too, so that your entire caravan could be accommodated. The price, I think it can be equal to your offer. ”
"No way. Meng Huan Chilong said very simply: "I just want this workshop, and I have to transfer it out, it will take time in the middle, so it must not be the price you said, it can only be counted as half." And can you reopen this shop? How many of the basic materials are used to make iron? It's really not good, we'll go and count it after we see it, and if you don't agree, then you should give me cash, and I'll get some money. ”
When Akhumwang heard this, he hurriedly said: "Okay, according to what you said, it is worth half of the money, and after the rest is finished, I will give you cash again, how about it? ”
Ahomwang's performance, he didn't need to think about it and knew that there were not many materials in it, but he didn't want to make money through gambling, but wanted to find a foothold for himself, so that he would have more room for turnover in Houshan City.
"Okay, this business is closed, I will take this job, but I won't stay long in Houshan City, and I will return to Houshan City, you can make an appointment with Kundapur on the time of the gambling fight, and then let Ma Linhu inform me, I want to end this matter as soon as possible." ”
Ahumwang nodded repeatedly. "I know, I know, I'll get you the deed now, and then let Ma Linhu accompany you to see the workshop first, and you can rest there at night. ”
By the time Meng Huan Chilong, Ma Lin Hu, and a few Wu slaves came out of the courtyard of Akhomwang, it was already mid-afternoon. And bringing a few more witch slaves is also to clean up the workshop.
When he arrived at the place, Meng Huan Chilong realized that this place was on the edge of the mountain city, a street that was not too wide, whether it was a road or a building, it seemed to be very sloppy, looking extremely rough, giving people a dilapidated feeling. There are a lot of storefronts on the street, most of which are related to livelihood, such as food shops, ready-to-wear stores, etc., but the level is not high, and those storefronts are very narrow, and they look like small shops.
There are not many people on the street, only a few people walk by occasionally, and the people who want to come to this place are very poor, most of them are busy earning money, and the rich people don't come here, so there are no people on the street.
Meng Winding Red Dragon did not feel disappointed, but felt that this place was just right for him, because it was not easy to attract the attention of others when he went in and out here. Like Yao Houli is looking for such a place, it is convenient for them to hide.
Ma Linhu opened the door of the door workshop, and a cloud of dust was raised, this small shop has indeed not been entered for a long time.
Everyone waited outside for a while before entering the door, as soon as they entered the door, there was naturally a row of counters, which was the same as most stores, the store hung some iron products, but the goods were too miscellaneous, in addition to weapons, more than some daily necessities, and even farm tools.
Meng Huan Chilong did not stop, passed through the small storefront, came to the back, and found that there was a large yard behind it, but now it was a yard, with a mess of things, iron ore for making utensils, and firewood and the like, but there were rows of houses all around, and if all the people lived, they could live hundreds of people.
That is to say, although this workshop is not the size of an acre, it is larger than half an acre, and it looks like it is two-thirds of an acre in size.
After walking around the yard, I didn't find any fuel items for casting, so what kind of iron did I have to make? In the Lei family's workshop, in addition to using ground fire, the common thing is the burning material of scorched mud, which is also brought out by the volcanic eruption.
Coke mud is very easy to burn, because it heats up quickly, and it burns at a high temperature of several thousand degrees, which is very suitable for casting.
