Chapter 117: Termination of the Gambling Contract
Su Shi took the silver ticket and the title deed back into his arms, and asked, "What about the gambling contract?" ”
Zhou Jin smiled and took out a gambling contract from his sleeve, let Su Shi look at it, and then put it on the charcoal fire for boiling tea to burn it.
She looked at Su Shi with interest and said, "It seems that you are really cautious and thoughtful in doing things. ”
Su Shi shaved the firewood with a wooden stick to make the fire burn more vigorously, and watched the gambling contract burn to ashes before he smiled: "It is related to your body, so you can't be cautious and careful." ”
Then he raised his head and said, "Is Bai Jiangchuan already angry?" ”
Zhou Jin seemed to hate this person, and when he heard the name, an expression of disgust immediately appeared on his face, as if he had seen a twisted, dirty poisonous snake.
She snorted coldly, and then said contemptuously: "He's just a puppet, and it's not his turn to call the shots about the Dongyuan Plasma Library." ”
Su Zhou didn't speak, and when Zhou Jin took out the silver ticket and land deed of 100,000 taels, he was completely shocked and speechless.
Although Su Shi told him that the condition for Dongyuan Quaku to cancel the gambling contract was that he had to pay 100,000 taels of silver and a shop, and Su Zhou also knew very well that Zhou Jin would definitely help from it.
But he still thinks that it is impossible for Dongyuan Quarantineer to agree to Su Shi's fantasy condition.
Because no matter how you look at this bet, Su Shi is the one who must lose, Dongyuan Qianku is willing to cancel the gambling under the mediation of Zhou Jin, Su Zhou has been thankful, where do you dare to expect to get compensation.
And it's such a sky-high payout.
But now that the facts are in front of us, Dongyuan Quality Library not only handed over the gambling contract, but also really paid Su Shi 100,000 taels of silver and a shop.
"Am I dreaming?"
It was only at this time that Su Zhou woke up from a dream and muttered.
No one paid attention to him, because Zhou Jin was already talking to Su Shi about another business.
"Now that the matter of the East Source Repository has been settled, can you consider my proposal now?"
Su Shi looked at Zhou Jin suspiciously, because he really couldn't understand Zhou Jin's behavior.
"Is the art of ice really so important to you? Why is it important that you are willing to exchange this boat? ”
Now Su Shi finally knows how high the value of this painting boat is, four or five dishes and a pot of wine can be sold for four thousand taels of silver, which can be regarded as a cornucopia.
Although the art of ice making seems to be magical, its shortcomings are also obvious, once the midsummer is over, it is useless at all.
It is impossible for Zhou Jin not to understand this.
What made Su Shi even more incomprehensible was that Zhou Jin's purpose in exchanging the painting boat for the ice-making technique was to collect it and not use it.
If Zhou Jin was just a businessman, Su Shi would definitely scoff at her words. Because he knew that any businessman would definitely put profit first, and since he was willing to exchange it for the art of ice making at such a huge price, he naturally wanted to use it to earn a hundredfold and a thousand times the benefits.
But now that she knows her true identity, what she said is naturally not a lie.
This made Su Shi even more puzzled.
Seeing that Su Shi actually had a time when he couldn't figure it out, Zhou Jin couldn't help but feel a burst of relief in his heart, because since he met Su Shi, it was rare to see this kind of expression on his face.
All along, Su Shi has shown calmness, confidence, and calmness, and it seems that nothing can be difficult for him.
So Zhou Jin just smiled mysteriously and didn't answer him.
Seeing that Zhou Jin was reluctant to answer this question, Su Shi suddenly smiled and said, "Actually, my heart is not big, 100,000 taels of silver is enough to satisfy my greed, not to mention that I am not very interested in the painting boat business, so I can only politely refuse your suggestion." ”
If it was in the past, Su Shi rejected her suggestion, Zhou Jin would have more or less shown some regret and disappointment, but now the expression on her face has not changed at all.
She just said lightly: "It's a pity. ”
Although she said that she was sorry, even a deaf person could tell that there was no regret in her tone.
Su Shi couldn't help but touch his nose, looking at Zhou Jin with an indifferent face, feeling extremely strange in his heart.
Because Zhou Jin's reaction to this matter was like two people.
"Why?" Su Shi couldn't help but ask.
Zhou Jin smiled mysteriously: "Because I suddenly found that it is not worth exchanging the painting boat for the ice technique." ”
Su Shi knew that this was not her sincere words, so he naturally refused to give up, and looked at her with straight eyes.
Zhou Jin finally couldn't stand his gaze, sighed, and said, "Because I suddenly figured it out." ”
"Figured out what?"
Zhou Jin asked with a smile, "Now will you use the Ice Making Technique to cooperate with the Dongyuan Mass Library?" ”
Su Shi thought for a while: "No." ”
He doesn't have a good impression of the East Origin Library, so he will definitely not cooperate with the East Source Reservoir unless he is in a special situation.
"Since you won't cooperate with the Dongyuan Reservoir, there is naturally no need for the Flower Pavilion to cooperate with you."
Su Shi couldn't figure it out again.
"Why? You should know that this ice-making technique can easily make the Flower Pavilion the first in the capital. ”
Zhou Jin smiled and said, "Why should I strive for the first place in the capital?" ”
Su Shi was speechless for a while, and he was speechless.
At this time, Zhou Jin asked rhetorically: "If your bet with Dongyuan Quality Library is not resolved, what will you do?" ”
"Naturally, it's a collaboration with the Flower Pavilion."
Zhou Jin asked again, "What if I don't cooperate with you?" ”
Su Shi smiled and said, "If you don't cooperate with me, it doesn't mean that the Flower Pavilion won't cooperate with me." ”
Any kind of industry in the capital must be mixed with a variety of forces, and Zhou Jin is just one of them.
Although she is in charge of the operation of the Flower Pavilion behind the scenes, she can refuse to cooperate with Su Shi, but when other forces know that Su Shi can bring ten times the benefits to the Flower Pavilion, it is difficult not to be moved, and they will definitely find a way to cooperate with him.
At that time, even Zhou Jin couldn't stop it.
Because the Flower Pavilion had to worry that if they didn't cooperate with Su Shi and he went back to cooperate with the Dongyuan Reservoir, then they really couldn't cry if they wanted to.
So when Su Shi left that piece of ice in the Flower Pavilion, he didn't worry about cooperation at all.
Zhou Jin sighed: "This is also what I am worried about. ”
As long as it can bring tenfold and hundredfold benefits, the forces behind the Flower Pavilion will definitely not consider the risks involved, and will definitely find ways to cooperate with Su Shi.
Su Shi couldn't help but say, "I can still find them now." ”
Zhou Jin shook his head: "You won't." ”
"Why?"
"Because you're going to have concerns, too." Zhou Jin smiled and said: "When you fight against the water, you may take risks, but now that there is no crisis, you will worry a lot." ”
Su Shi had to admit that Zhou Jin saw it very accurately and was right. In the past, he had a bet with the East Source Library, so if he used any method to win the bet, the East Source Treasure Bank could only bear it.
But now his gambling contract with Dongyuan Quality Library has been terminated, and he has also received 100,000 taels of silver and a shop compensation from the other party.
If at this time, he used the ice making technique to cooperate with the Flower Pavilion and beat the Dongyuan Quarantine, the forces behind the Dongyuan Quarantine, would definitely launch a crazy revenge.
Cutting off people's financial routes is like killing parents, and it is strange that Dongyuan Qualitative Library is desperate if he does not look for Su.
When the time comes, not only will he not be able to bear it, but even the General's Mansion may not be able to bear it.
