Dio looked at the broker with an embarrassed look and said, "If that's the case, then the fee will be calculated separately. After all, according to the mission requirements, this thing has nothing to do with me now. If you insist that I take it away, then you are transferring the danger to me. Isn't that a bit unfair?"
As a qualified profiteer who abides by the rules, this was the first time the broker had encountered such a situation. He had already admitted the loss, but the other party still refused to give in!
But in the final analysis, what he did was indeed not fair, and he did want to let the other party take the blame. As long as he was not involved in the matter in the end, this loss would not be a big deal. The only problem was that he underestimated how difficult this guy was.
"I'll give you another 10,000 star coins. Take your things and leave quickly. It's best if you never come back again." The broker said gritting his teeth.
Then Dio sneered and said, "How about I give you 10,000 star coins and you keep this thing?"
"Twenty thousand! No more. You were the one who brought this thing here in the first place. Besides, it was you who offended Ronan, not me."
"Give me another hundred thousand! I'll take the blame for you. Don't forget, you are the one who issued this task, and we have just settled the matter by exchanging money and goods. Now you insist that I take the things away. There is no such rule in your line of work, right? Aren't you afraid of ruining your reputation?" Dio suddenly showed his sharp teeth, and began to show his true colors!
The broker is now regretting very much. He doesn't regret finding Kira Yoshikage, but he simply regrets issuing this mission. If he had known earlier that Ronan was also sending people to search for the Cosmic Spirit Orb, he would never have been so stupid as to intervene. Now he is in a dilemma!
"50,000! This is my bottom line, and you absolutely cannot betray me."
"You're dreaming. You want to get rid of me with just such a small amount of money? That's not what you said at the beginning. How about I don't want a penny and you take the things?"
"You... ...!" The broker's face almost turned green with anger, but he was helpless. With his small body, there was no way he could beat the other party. This guy had snatched the Cosmic Spirit Orb back from Ronan's men, and was standing in front of him intact, which showed that he was also a tough guy.
"Stop talking about you and me, can you please tell me straight out loud? The real value of this thing is far more than 100,000 star coins. Don't blame me for being a profiteer, you profiteer." Dio was determined to give this old man a good beating. Did he really treat him like a newcomer
Once these words were spoken, the fig leaf was exposed, and the broker's momentum suddenly weakened.
Although the principle he lives by is to abide by the rules, as a businessman, isn't it natural for him to make the biggest profit possible
"Okay, that's it. I'll have someone build you a set of Pegasus armor. I still have the data from last time. I promise with my personality that I won't cut corners and will do everything according to your requirements. But I also have a condition. No matter what happens, the Cosmic Spirit Orb has nothing to do with me. I know nothing and I didn't do anything. People must know that the Cosmic Spirit Orb is not with me!"
Dio pondered for a moment. The value of a set of Pegasus armor is equal to 100,000 star coins, but there is some water in the middle. This guy really knows how to save money for himself.
But this is acceptable. After all, he can't save the money even if he goes somewhere else. It will be earned by others anyway. He might as well take the opportunity to repair the torn relationship. Maybe there will be a chance to deal with each other in the future.
Although the broker is a dishonest businessman, he strictly abides by the rules, which is why he can become big and strong in this industry, so Dio is not worried that he will do anything.
Even if something really happened, Dio was not afraid. This guy thought Ronan could do nothing to him, but in fact, Ronan was nothing. He was just a piece of shit except that he could shout "Pizza Hut, Yeah!" I just don't know how much advertising fee Pizza Hut gave Ronan, can't I give double the money to McDonald's
So if there really is a problem, Dio will definitely come back and make this old guy bleed again!
"Okay, that's settled. I want to see something within three days, otherwise don't blame me for bringing Ronan's people to have tea with you."
"Three days is not enough, it should be at least seven days. Do you think this is a child's toy?" The broker was so polite that he almost burst into swearing.
"Five days. I will send someone to get the things within five days. If you can't get them out or dare to fool me, you know the consequences!"
"You are a devil! I hope we will never meet again!"
Dio was too lazy to waste time talking to him. After giving him the ultimatum, he just turned around and left. It felt so good to get this money. He felt so refreshed all over!
Only the broker failed to gain anything and even suffered a small loss. He must be very angry now.
But to be honest, he lost nothing by "selling" his troubles for such a small amount of money!
Dio walked outside with a swagger, and the first thing he saw was Gamora waiting outside. Even the position she was standing in was exactly the same as when he was waiting for Star-Lord just now. Besides her, Rocket Raccoon and Groot were also not far away, looking over here frequently, as if they couldn't understand how the cooked duck flew away and disappeared
"Hello? I suppose you're not waiting for me? Want this?"
Dio smiled and then casually tossed up the Cosmic Spirit Ball. Although he had badly cheated the guy inside once, since he had taken the money, he naturally had to help others get rid of the disaster. He still had this kind of character, not to mention that he was still waiting to receive the brand new Pegasus armor.
So now he needs to let everyone involved in this drama know that this thing is in his hands.
Gamora's face changed slightly, and she immediately stretched out her hand to snatch it. Dio slapped her hand away and said with a chuckle, "Is that what Thanos taught you? You snatch other people's things when you don't agree with them? If you want it, you can tell me. How can I know you want it if you don't tell me?"
"Who are you?"
The sneak attack failed, and Gamora unexpectedly heard the name Thanos, which made her immediately afraid to act rashly again.
"Me? An unknown bounty hunter. I'm planning to sell this thing for a good price, so I can't give you the Cosmic Orb for the time being." Dio said with a smile. He didn't have any ill feelings towards Gamora, and even admired her a little. This should be the time when she decided to rebel.
And he was still thinking about a question, if Gamora didn't go with Thanos to find the Soul Stone in the future...
Well, it seems to be of no use. Thanos could just make another trip, capture a pair of lovers and force them to get the Soul Stone.
Anyway, there was no rush at that time and no one could stop him.
