Chapter Eighty-Three: Scare?
As soon as Pu He shouted the price, anyone with a little longer brain could see that he was obviously targeting Huan Yin. Otherwise, why did he remain silent for a long time before, and now he is asking the whole camp to make sure that no one is competing with Huan Yin, but he chose to bid again?
Huan Yin naturally knew that in the end, the only one who could fight with him would only be Puhe. Now, when he received the hostile gaze from the Pu River, he looked back with a smile and said, "I didn't expect that Commander Pu would also be interested in Brother Lu. ”
In the army, it is very dishonorable for officers of any rank to compete with the commander for new recruits. After all, the strength of the squad is already weak, and if you want to develop, recruiting new people is almost the only way. And if there is a commander competing with the captain for a newcomer, it is almost equivalent to ruining the future of this team, which is no different from direct suppression, that is, using power to suppress people. Although it is not uncommon to use power to oppress people in the army, it is almost an unwritten rule that such an obvious situation as competing with the army commander for new recruits will still attract everyone's disdain and indignation.
Hearing Huan Yin's words clearly, Pu He's face became even more ugly. He knew that if he made a move now, it would be tantamount to committing a taboo in the army, and he would be poked in the back. Moreover, he has also seen a lot of Wu Chang cast surprised or angry glances at him, which shows that many people have already had opinions about his current approach.
In fact, Pu He had been quite moved by Lu Tianjun before, but he had been holding back and not making a move, and a large part of the reason was here. But now, what can he do? Compared to losing face and committing a taboo, Lie Prajna is obviously more terrible. So, he can't help it.
Forcibly calm his mind, since Pu He has already opened his mouth, he can't control so much now. So he could only argue strongly: "I also think that Brother Lu is a rare talent, so I can't help but be tempted." Chief Xue Wu, you don't have to give in, we just have to compete brightly. ”
Pu He tried to make his tone more upright and impartial, hoping to reverse his image a little.
The expression on Huan Yin's face was still like a smile, and he bowed to Pu He from afar, and said, "Since the adults have spoken, then the lower officials are not welcome." My lord, I will give out fifteen thousand immortal jade. ”
Hearing Huan Yin's bid, Pu He showed a warm expression of appreciation on his face, but he kept sneering in his heart, thinking: "Boy, you want to fight for me, daydreaming!"
While thinking, Pu He thought and hesitated slightly, and soon spoke: "Then I will give out 20,000 immortal jade." ”
"Twenty-five thousand. As soon as Pu He's words fell, Huan Yin seemed to have been prepared for a long time, and spoke directly.
Not to be outdone, Pu He only paused slightly, and then argued: "Thirty thousand immortal jade." ”
"Forty thousand!" As soon as the words fell, Huan Yin spoke directly again.
Pu He and Huan were fighting each other, and everyone originally thought that Lu Tianjun would suffer a big loss. After all, there are only two people participating in the competition, and the final price that can be given may be far worse than everyone competing together. But now it seems that this is not the case. It has only been a dozen breaths, and the two of them have been competing against each other for a price, and they have directly begun to approach the highest price just now. This momentum is too fierce, if it continues to develop like this, I am afraid that the price will soar to the sky in a while.
Pu He swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and did not immediately come back with a price at the first time. It's not that he can't afford to make a bid, but Huan Yin even shouted the price to 40,000 without even blinking an eye, which greatly surprised him. He didn't think that Huan Yin had so many immortal jades, and even if he had, he wouldn't shout so decisively. After all, this is not a slogan for military training, and when you shout, it is all fairy jade with white flowers.
"My lord, does this kid have 40,000 immortal jade, is he shouting?" beside Pu He, a cronie whispered to Pu He.
To be honest, Pu He couldn't wait to open Huan Yin's storage bag to see if he was shouting and driving up the price. However, this is not a real auction auction after all, he is a superior and a subordinate to compete for new recruits, and now he still has the face to ask someone to check Huan Yin's assets?
"Damn, even if you're shouting, there's got to be a limit. Lao Tzu has immortal jade, if you don't believe in playing, you won't die!"
So, not long after, I saw Pu He shouting: "Fifty thousand immortal jade!"
Huan Yin's eyelids still didn't lift, as if he was shouting and playing, and he didn't hesitate to arrive: "Sixty thousand." ”
Pu He's face became more and more ugly, Huan Yin's shouting price was as easy as eating and drinking, could it be that he was really wealthy? If he continued to shout like this, his bottom line would not be far away.
But in the end, Pu He gritted his teeth and shouted: "Seventy thousand!"
As soon as this price came out, the soldiers of the entire military camp shouted. Just kidding, a full 70,000 immortal jade, that is already a sky-high price, even if Lu Tianjun is excellent, but this price is already quite high.
Pu He didn't care about the reactions of others, his eyes were always fixed on Huan Yin's face. And this time, what made him extremely happy was that he found that Huan Yin's face could no longer remain calm as water, and his eyes flickered. And more importantly, Huan Yin didn't directly shout the price this time, as if he was choked by something.
"Can't shout?" Pu He's heart had already sneered, and the more he observed, the more he found that as time passed, Huan Yin's eyes flickered more and more, and the hesitation on his face became more and more obvious. Although Huan Yin wanted to try his best to cover these unnatural expressions, perhaps the current price really made him feel a lot of pressure, so he couldn't cover it.
After a full ten breaths, Huan Yin didn't speak after all, and he was extremely decisive and regarded Xianyu as dung. Now on his face, there are contradictions written all over it, and it seems that he is constantly weighing whether to continue to shoot.
At this time, Pu He was completely sure that Huan Yin really couldn't afford to bid, or at least he was about to reach the limit. And after a closer analysis, he immediately thought that Huan Yin's previous price increase, which seemed to be without thinking at all, was actually just for bluffing. Huan wanted to make a fool of himself, pretending not to care about the fairy jade at all to intimidate himself. But now that his financial resources are close to the limit, everything is missing.
"Hmph, let you be cunning, in front of the absolute financial resources of this commander, you have to bow your head. Pu He's heart was already full of pride. This time, he is not afraid, not only can he get Lu Tianjun, but he will not be able to complete the task assigned by Lie Panruo.
The herald is also from Puhe, how smart he is, he has long understood the current situation. Now, Huan Yin didn't speak for a long time, and it was the time to please Pu He, so he shouted: "Chief Xue, do you still want to bid?"
Huan Yin's whole body was shocked, as if he had been woken up from a dream, and he was a little at a loss. Then, he frowned for a long time, and finally gritted his teeth and said: "Master Pu, you and I can't compete with each other, I don't know when we will have a result if we continue to shout like this, or I will propose a proposal, let's gamble bigger?"
Pu He sneered in his heart: "It's a good fight, with your little financial resources, I can play for you to a dead end right away! You even dare to mention any big bets, hmph, do you think you can still scare me? But it's good to bet bigger, anyway, Lao Tzu won, and listen to him talk about how to bet." ”
So, Pu He spoke: "This command makes the competition righteous and bright, and never oppresses people with power." Now that you have a new proposal, let's talk about it. ”
So, Huan Yin said: "I think, in order to avoid repeated contentions, we both bid only once in the end. This time, we took out our hole cards and handed them directly to Brother Lu's hands. Brother Lu looked at what we both handed over, and it was up to him to decide which side he was willing to go with. And no matter which side Brother Lu chooses in the end, what we gave him can't be returned. ”
As soon as Huan Yin's words fell, many bystanders had already whispered in surprise.
"None of the things handed over can be returned, so isn't it true that if Lu Tianjun chooses a certain side, the other party will be equivalent to paying for nothing? ”
"Isn't it just giving it for nothing? The losing side gave something to Lu Tianjun, but Lu Tianjun joined the other party's account, doesn't this mean that he gave the opponent benefits? This ...... It's so exciting!"
"Oh my God, you are only allowed to bid once, you can't add more. In this case, in order to ensure that he gets Lu Tianjun, and to ensure that the price he paid will not be made for others in vain, both parties will definitely take out their real hole cards to fight. This kind of gambling, where to compete for newcomers, is completely a real fight. Then Xue Wu Chang is too bold. ”
Pu He is not stupid, so as soon as Huan Yin's proposal came out, he quickly figured out the key to the entire gambling method. However, he thinks that he has a lot of money and cannot lose to Huan Yin. In addition, after his observation before, he found that Huan Yin was already at the end of the crossbow, so he felt that Huan Yin was still scaring himself, so as to take the opportunity to capture Lu Tianjun. Therefore, Pu He finally laughed out loud and asked rhetorically: "Chief Xue Wu, is your proposal serious?"
