The door rang too abruptly, leaning against the counter and starting to beat his head, Old Rom's huge body also became extremely wary of the knock, he was more than two meters tall but walked towards the door as light as a swallow. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The old man looked mysterious, put his ear to the door panel and said:

"Dealing with big rats?"

"With poison. ”

"Against Moby Dick?"

"With a fishhook. ”

"Against our venerable dragons?"

"Go eat. ”

In response to Old Rohm's brief question, people outside the door can immediately reply with a tasteless answer.

It's a unique code word, and that's the code and password. Natsuki thought to herself.

In this way, Rohm was satisfied to unlock the door.

Looking at his back, Pleiades said with a thirsty throat, "The time has finally come, and the next thing is to witness ......."

"—I've kept you waiting, Grandpa Rom. The other party was unexpectedly difficult, and it took me a lot of time. ”

A young girl, affectionately boasting of her victory, walks past Roma and enters the stolen goods vault.

She is a girl with long blond messy hair. Her pupils were as red as a rabbit, and mischievous tiger teeth poked out of the corners of her mouth. The petite body is easy to move, and to put it bluntly, it is tattered clothes.

"Huh?!"

Surprisingly, it's not the same as the murderer in my memory?

Pleiades couldn't help but stand up. The clicking sound made the girl notice the pleiades, and the smile suddenly faded from her expression.

"Ahh Hey, Grandpa Rom, I should have said that this time it was a big ticket, so don't wait for the crowd to be there, right? I don't understand how this kind of person got in, it's unbelievable, isn't it to steal our stolen goods? ”

When the girl talks about stolen goods, she has no shame at all.

The old man smiled: "I understand your feelings, but this kid has something to look for you-Firut, that's why I'm here." And you can't say he doesn't have anything to do with your big-ticket job. ”

Listening to Rom's answer, the girl, Firut, frowned in disbelief.

Seeing her hand unconsciously attached to her chest, you can guess that the badge is there, and Caiyue's eyes converge.

Firut's ears suddenly pricked up, and he looked at the Pleiades with wary eyes.

"Who is this little brother? I can't be sold, right?"

"On the friendship between the old decay and you, how could you do such a ruthless and unrighteous thing. It's not bad for you to let him stay, right?"

Rohm winked at the Pleiades for permission.

Experiencing the precious disgusting taste of being flattered by the old man, in the sense of blinding the tension, the Pleiades enter a little gagging little theater, and then re-face the girl in Roma's unappetizing gaze.

"Don't be so scary. It's hard work to come here, how about a glass of milk first?"

"A stupid face full of gaps...... I don't care what you're thinking, but I'm personally only interested in money. Okay, let's get to the point. ”

Firut reacted lukewarmly. The impression of the first meeting was so bad, said with a shrug.

The girl was startled, her eyebrows raised, and she was aggressive: "I'll ask Rom to ask him to arrange a meeting for me...... Anyway, I'm looking for you to ask for the gem badge in your arms. ”

Knowing the details of the theft and the stolen goods made her raise her level of vigilance against the Pleiades, but the Pleiades raised her hands to relax her guard.

This guy looks so stupid...... This is the first impression of a young girl.

"I don't shoot or kick, all I can do is have a mouth. In other words, let's negotiate. ”

Natsuki raised her fingers and pointed to the small table next to the counter.

"It's a loss for me and for you, my goal is to make it a win-win for both parties. ”

Expecting a conversational attitude, Firut nodded quickly and walked to the assigned seat to sit opposite him. Knowing Rohm, he poured milk into the cup and placed it in front of the two of them.

"I'll provide the premises and the milk, but the negotiation itself is up to you, and you don't care. ”

"I negotiated with the mentality of being slaughtered, just look at how I was ripped off. ”

Pleiades sneered at things that were not to be proud of with confidence. Firut, on the other hand, who was sitting across from him, took a sip of milk and frowned.

"Hey, Rom. This glass of milk water is so dilute that it tastes so bad that it is unpleasant to drink. ”

"Why do you and him say that the drink brought out by the old man is unpalatable......"

Rohm, who was embarrassed by the speech, stroked the head of Firut, who spoke unceremoniously, with his big palm.

Her head was touched so hard that it looked like it was about to fall, but seeing Rom's languid expression, she knew that he had no intention of harming him, and Firut was used to bearing it.

"You're more in tune with you than you expected, and it's lonely to be left out in the cold. ”

"Lord Rom has a vicious face that wants to find a fight, don't say such girlish words. ”

"You've been finding fault with the old man since you entered the door, but you shouldn't want me to fight with him!?"

Firut's words stunned Pleiades. He looked up at the bald old man, and then lost his fighting spirit.

Although he is easily misunderstood because of his fierce eyes, he can't compare to a huge grandfather who is more than two meters tall.

"Ahh Sorry, little brother. ”

"Although I would love to see the cute title of little brother as the establishment of peace talks, please spare me first. In the future, unintentional words hurt people...... What's wrong with you, Grandpa Rom?"

"You two can't gang up to make the old man angry, right?"

Rohm was smiling, but his forehead was bruised. Pleiades and Firut looked at each other and shrugged their shoulders, making Rom sigh deeply.

"Ahhhhh......h Come to think of it, acquaintances of the same generation as Firut are all treacherous and cunning people. ”

“...... Grandpa Rom, count me on you, don't talk about your inexplicable and embarrassing concerns. ”

"It's still the same generation...... It's no wonder that everyone is the same age in the old man's opinion. ”

Glancing at Firut and looking anew, her poorly developed figure looked to be only twelve or thirteen years old, or at most fourteen years old if the criteria were relaxed.

To be friends or acquaintances with her, the age gap is uncomfortable enough.

Ignoring the analysis of the Pleiades, Firut and Rom, who were full of stubbornness, continued to bicker.

"If you care about that kind of thing, you can pretend to be a lone wolf. When the old decay is not in good health and there is no way to support you well, what will you do when the time comes?"

"You said that a few years ago. Except for the head that says the same thing many times, the rest of the world will not be so fast. Before that......"

"Before that?"

The Pleiades caught the end of the words where the arrogance disappeared, which angered Firut. She looked up forcefully.

Feeling that it was an atmosphere that should not be heard or welcomed, he coughed and cleared his throat. It's almost time to fix the off-topic parts a bit.

"So, let's start the negotiation again. That's, Firut, right, you have the badge with you. ”

“...... Well, there is. ”

Faced with the pleiades that go straight to the point, Firut responds briefly and crisply.

She reached into her arms and took out an object and gently placed it on the table.

- The badge that the Pleiades have been looking for is a badge with a dragon as a pattern and an extraordinary image.

The size is just enough to fit in the palm of your hand, and the material is impossible to judge, but the figure symbolized by the pterosaur is quite complicated, and the unique feature is that the dragon's open mouth holds a red gem.

The red gem in the center of the badge emitted a hazy glow, and the Pleiades couldn't help but look at it in amazement.

"Alright—"

Filut's call brought back the consciousness of the Pleiades that had fallen into silence. As if to show off to Ang, she pressed the end of the badge on the table.

"It's your turn to show your trump card this time. The badge is such a high-end thing, and it took me a lot of hard work to get my hands on it. If the hole cards are equal, everyone will be happy?"

"It's not advisable to test me with a bad smile. But I only have one trump card, after all, I'm a poor bastard who prospers and declines!"

The proud pleiades were exchanged for Firut's bitter gourd face.

It's still the same, as long as you hear the "poor bastard", everyone will put on a disgusted expression. Pleiades thought.

The emotions in his heart were put aside for the time being, and Pleiades showed his only and strongest trump card according to the declaration.

Looking at the phone that was being struggled on the table, Firut's expression was as confused as expected. Satisfied with this response, the Pleiades turned on the phone's camera function.

"Look at the move! Nine consecutive shots in one second! The legendary hand speed god can do the stunt of eight beats in one second, which is called 'eight consecutive kills', and I am even better. ”

The girl screamed: "Wow, wow, hey, what kind of sound is this, it's very harsh!"

The white light shimmered, and the mechanical shutter sounded rapidly.

The indecent way of taking pictures made Firut look like she wanted to complain, but Pleiades handed her the phone screen before she could open her mouth. When she saw herself on the screen, her eyes widened.

"This is ......"

"That's right, you've been copied! This is the Meteor that can cut through time and leave a shape, and I'm going to trade this for that badge with you. ”

At the beginning, show the biggest hole card and take advantage of the momentum to give yourself an advantage in the negotiations.

The basic purpose of negotiation is to cooperate with the situation and let the other party decide on the necessary forceful means.

Of course, this method is the same as announcing to the opponent at the beginning that there is no trump card stronger than this, and in essence, the Pleiades are practiced verbally.

"I see, it's not bad. Lord Roma, how much can this meteor be sold for?"

Firut, who couldn't help but nod his head at the screen, reacted extremely flatly, and Pleiades was taken aback by this.

Not only did his eyes glow, but he didn't even reach for his phone. Her interest is not in the functionality and rarity of the phone, but in the bottom line it is only about how much money it can be exchanged for.

"Is the romance of high-tech limited to men even in another world?

"It's noisy, don't be chattering over there. As far as I'm concerned, this is something I haven't seen...... If only it could sell more than this badge, it would be a long live life. In this respect, I trust Roma. ”

"Well, I don't know the correct amount, but in terms of conclusion, the two are not comparable at all. Although I also think that badge can be exchanged for a lot of money...... But still lost to Meteor. In short, the old man concluded that the negotiation was a bargain for Firut. ”

"yes, yes, that's good—"

Roma's assurances put Firut in a good mood.

Although the reaction was a little different from what was expected, the goal was about to be achieved, which made Pleiades very satisfied.

However, just as Aung quickly reached for the badge, Firut stopped him.

"Wait, that's the end of the trump card. But I'm not done yet, right?"

“...... It's not commendable to declare that you want to raise the price. That said, even if you want to raise the price, it's useless, after all, I'm the best in the world. ”

"People don't have bad intentions to that extent. Lord Roma said so, and I agree that your 'Meteor' is worth more than this badge, but you said that only this trump card is a lie, right?"

Firut stood up and looked down at the Pleiades who were sitting in his chair.

A pair of red eyes sparkled as if they were valuing. Looking at her like that, cold sweat slid down her back.

As a trump card in negotiations, the mobile phone with the greatest power has been unveiled. However, there are several other things that should be valuable in this world as well. Originally, I planned to use these things as a record when the negotiation was unfavorable, but I didn't expect that-

"Don't worry, I told you, didn't I'm going to take any more money out of you. As long as that thing can be exchanged for money, I'm satisfied. ”

Laughing at the anxious Pleiades, Firut clapped his hands gently. Her reaction was suffocating, and she took a deep breath while keeping her eyes peeled to keep her from noticing her wavering.

"So, what do you mean by price increase?"

"Well, it's very simple, I'm not the only one I'm dealing with, brother. ”

A question mark appeared on the Pleiades' head, and Firut raised his index finger in answer to his question.

"Originally, I would steal this badge because I was entrusted by someone, and the other party said that I was willing to give ten holy gold coins in exchange for this badge. ”

"Did you take someone else's theft commission? So it's worth ten gold coins? I don't know the market......

Glanced at Rom. Sensing Pleiades' intentions, he nodded and replied:

"This badge, the old decay can be sold for four or five gold coins, and if it is bargained, it may be sold for three. ”

"In that case, is it just a doubling acquisition?"

"No, she just said Holy Gold Coins. Unlike the gold coins in circulation, the Holy Gold Coin is made of the rare material Holy Gold, so ten Holy Gold Coins are worth about twenty gold coins. ”

"Quadruple acquisition!?"

"Surprised, the lowest price of the meteor you brought is also twenty holy gold coins. Depending on the situation, there may be collectors who are willing to pay a higher price. But that's a different story. ”

The price of goods in this world is incomprehensible, I thought that gold coins were already the highest level of currency, but I didn't expect another holy gold coin to jump out, and what was surprising was that the mobile phone was worth twenty.

"Since the value of the meteor is so high, let's say sorry to the client and refuse it. ”

"That's why I said I was going to raise the price. ”

Firut's arrogant expression twisted into an even worse smile.

"The little brother is willing to exchange for something so ridiculously expensive, if he really wants it, won't the other party probably add the corresponding reward?"

That is to say...... If the other party is willing to pay a price higher than twenty Holy Gold Coins......"

"If you don't show me the rest of your deck, you won't have to win. ”

Firut asserted briskly. Revised, her expression was not bad, but extremely bad.

The negotiations came to this point, and the unstable development began to cover the face of the Pleiades.

"So, where is the client? Is there an appointment about when the delivery will be made? Can you invite the other party to the negotiating table?"

"Of course, it's just that it's not good for my brother, and my earnings may also be reduced. Also, there is no need to worry about the negotiation place, it is here. ”

Tapping his fingers on the edge of the table, Firut leaned back in his chair and looked up at Roma with a look of victory.
