It seems that people from the three groups came in through different doors, so no one saw each other face to face. With screens and bamboo curtains in front of them, it was true that they couldn't see each other's appearance.
Jian Ruocheng's attention was always behind the screen.
Ever since the mysterious master directly called out Nan Yan's name yesterday, he couldn't feel at ease. In addition, the inexplicable and familiar aura of the other party made him even more uneasy.
However, just looking at the figure, it is impossible to guess who it is.
Even his voice was unfamiliar.
"Everyone,"
The person behind the screen spoke: "I think you all already know that what I am going to sell this time is a batch of refined ironware. There is only one batch of things, but there are both of you as buyers."
"..."
"This seat is doing business fairly, so naturally I have to give both of you a fair chance so as not to mess up the rules."
"..."
"So, the three parties are here to discuss clearly, what kind of sincerity you can show to impress this seat, and you can sell it to anyone."
Hearing this, Nan Yan raised her eyebrows slightly.
She subconsciously looked at Jian Ruocheng. At this moment, Jian Ruocheng's eyes flickered.
Jian Ruocheng frowned slightly.
Apparently, they all thought that the iron box that Zhu Xuan gave him before leaving was for this negotiation. Since the other party has asked them to show sincerity, at this time, Jian Ruocheng should show it.
However, Jian Ruocheng is as stable as Mount Tai.
It seems that they want to see the "sincerity" of the other party.
However, the other party was still as motionless as a mountain, neither side made any movements, only the sea breeze was blowing in from the window, blowing the curtains around them continuously.
Although it is still blue and white, it is like a ghost in people's hearts.
The people behind the screen were also quiet for a while, and when they spoke again, there seemed to be a sneer in their voice, and they said, "It seems that both of you have become more polite."
"..."
"Or, do you want to be humble to each other?"
"..."
"If this is the case, then I will naturally take a trip to the sea."
There was a slight noise behind the bamboo curtain opposite.
Obviously, they didn't want to return empty-handed.
Jian Ruocheng raised her head, looked at the opposite side of the bamboo curtain, and said with a calm smile, "I wonder what kind of sincerity you can show?"
Although the other party was a little restless, he didn't speak immediately.
I just vaguely saw two figures reflected on the bamboo curtain, one was taller and stronger, the other was thinner, the thin figure seemed to be attached to the tall figure, after a while, a sharp voice sounded: "What about you guys?" ?”
Hearing this voice, Nan Yan frowned.
The other party's words were obviously a little blunt.
But Jian Ruocheng still smiled, and said politely: "I came here by order. This batch of ironware is very important to us, so we are determined to get it."
The other party responded quickly this time: "So do we."
"If that's the case, then it's easy to handle."
The master sitting behind the screen said lightly, he clapped his hands, and a servant holding a tray walked out from both sides, walked to their desk, and put down the things in his hands.
It is pen and ink and paper.
The other party immediately said: "What does this mean?"
The person behind the screen said: "Both sides are bidding, and I don't want you to hurt your peace. You might as well write the greatest sincerity you can give on this piece of paper. After reading it, I will make my own decision."
Hearing this, Jian Ruocheng frowned slightly.
You know, writing the price on paper is different from verbal bidding.
Verbal bidding is alive and can be changed at any time, but written on paper, there is almost no room for increase or decrease.
The person behind the screen wants to solve this matter once and for all.
However, how do they know each other's strength
Since both sides are determined to win, I am afraid that there are not many things that can be produced.
Nan Yan glanced at him, and said in a deep voice, "How much do you want to write?"
Jian Ruocheng didn't speak.
On the other hand, behind the bamboo curtain opposite, for some reason, she felt a very low breath, so strong that Nan Yan couldn't help but raise her head and take a look.
Although the bamboo curtains were dense, they were all covered up.
But there are some things that still seem to come through the air, through the gusts of sea breeze.
Jian Ruocheng thought for a while, then picked up the pen in his hand.
The other party seemed to have already picked up their pens. After a rustling sound, both sides began to write pens. Two attendants came over and put the paper they wrote back on the tray, and then sent it behind the screen.
It can be clearly seen that the figure on the screen picked up two pieces of paper and looked at each one.
Nan Yan held his breath.
In an instant, a chuckle was heard from behind the screen.
"Interesting, interesting."
Jian Ruocheng looked up at the figure: "How?"
That voice also came from the other side of the bead curtain: "What choice do you make?"
The person behind the screen said with a smile: "On one side, you write that no matter how much the other party bids, you will add another ten thousand taels; on the other side, you write that no matter how much the other party bids, you will double the amount."
"..."
"..."
The scene was a little awkward for a while.
Nan Yan couldn't help but glance at Jian Ruocheng, and then looked across.
Chess meets opponent.
Although the words written on the paper are dead, the content of the words can be alive. Jian Ruocheng played a trick on this, but he didn't expect that the other party had the same idea.
But it can also be seen from this that the opponent's strength is extraordinary.
After all, this batch of ironware is worth a lot. Whether it is an increase of 10,000 taels or double the price, the calculated amount is sky-high.
On King Ning's side, it was naturally because of the upcoming war that iron weapons were indispensable.
And what about the other party
The person behind the screen chuckled and said: "It seems that both of you are sincere, but this seat is a bit embarrassed. Should I get double or take the extra ten thousand taels."
"..."
"Or—" he said with a half-smile, "one and half of you?"
The person on the other side seemed a little anxious, and there was a little anger in his voice: "If it's only half of the iron, we don't have to travel thousands of miles—"
Before he finished speaking, he was suddenly stopped by the people around him.
But at this moment, Nan Yan suddenly got up and walked out from behind the bamboo curtain.
Everyone present was startled.
Jian Ruocheng said subconsciously: "Nanyan—"
The person behind the screen also said, "What are you going to do?"
Nan Yan walked towards the other party's bamboo curtain and said, "Your Excellency can choose slowly, but here I have a personal grievance to settle!"
After speaking, she walked over and lifted the bamboo curtain.
His eyes were fixed on the figure caught off guard behind the bamboo curtain.
"Long time no see, 'cousin'."
