The thin tall Old Qiu spoke in a low voice, “Is this young friend not satisfied with the price we offered?”
Lin Xun shook his head, “No, I don’t mean that.”
Before he could explain, Old Qiu longed his face, “Young man, I have to remind you that your materials are from Chi Family. It’s no different from stealing goods. If you aren’t a friend of the third Childe, you could only get half of 64,000 gold coins most.”
He seemed to feel Lin Xun not know chalk from cheese so he said with a trace of sulk.
Shi Yu could not help frowning and said angrily, “Old Qiu, I don’t invite you here to teach my friend a lesson!”
“Calm down, third Childe. I just remind in good intention.”
Old Qiu said indifferently.
“You…”
Lin Xun stopped Shi Yu when he was about to say something and claimed with smiles, “Don’t misunderstand me. I don’t mean to ask for a better offer. Although I’m friend of the third Childe, business should have rules. So please take back the friend rate and offer me the market price.”
Those sophisticated treasure examiners were all shocked. They couldn’t believe their ears.
Even Shi Yu couldn’t help being shocked and feeling furious at this moment. He thought Lin Xun had been angry with these old men, which brought him mush shame.
His friend was put in trouble in Keystone Business. If this was easily let go, how could he make more friends in the future?
“It’s a good thing for young people to have a tough temper, but you’re abandoning yourself to emotions. Aren’t you putting us in a heartless position? What would third Childe thought of us if so? ”
Old Qiu hummed. He thought that Lin Xun was taking a retreat as a way to win the sympathy of Shi Yu. His intention was sinister to embarrass them.
Shi Yu felt the thing was a little out of control. He grabbed Lin Xun’s arm and took him into a quiet room on the side room of the hall. He whispered, “Lin Xun, don’t mind those old men. Although they are annoying, they are also really talented people. In the headquarters of Keystone Business, they only listen to my father. Even I dare not go against them.”
In the end, he couldn’t help but laugh at himself, “These are the truth. Although I’m the son of Fortune God Shi, I often feel bound to take actions.”
He sighed again, “I thought those guys could do me a favor and benefit you more. I didn’t expect that they mess it up. How can I feel at ease in front of you in the future?”
Shi Yu tried to persuade Lin Xun with mockery and catharsis. It revealed that Shi Yu, the third Childe of Keystone Business, was not as free as he seemed to be. He also had depression and worries.
When Lin Xun heard this, he couldn’t help being dumb. He replied then, “Compared to me, you should feel lucky. At least you are really worthy of your name, but I, the heir of the Lin Family, am alone.”
It was like a game of comparing who was the more miserable.
Therefore, people would feel happy when they contrasted with each other. Shi Yu was stunned by Lin Xun’s words and suddenly laughed, “I feel so happy when you say that. Let’s tell about your unhappiness to entertain me in the future… ”
Lin Xun couldn’t help rolling his eyes and shouted, “Go away!”
After laughing for a moment, Shi Yu stopped and said, “Now, listen to me first. Accept the price first when you go out. I’ll find a chance to lesson these old men later! ”
There was a chill in his voice.
As the third Childe of Fortune God Shi, he would inherit Keystone Business. Therefore, he had to find a chance to lesson those disobedient people severely whether Lin Xun had brought his issue here or not.
This was the way he must go to take the power in the future. If those old man couldn’t been subjected to Shi Yu, he would face a reduction of power.
But Lin Xun smiled, “If you believe me, listen to me this time.”
As he said, he had gone out of the quiet room with Shi Yu.
Those old people were still there, but they looked a little bit impatient. They came together because of Shi Yu’s invitation. Otherwise, they would not waste their time on a young man as they owned such a high statue in Keystone Business.
This was the headquarter of Keystone Business!
So many dignitaries were waiting for them every day!
“Predecessors, Shi Yu and I have already negotiated. These treasures will be sold at the market price.”
Lin Xun opened his mouth and decided the price directly.
All the old people were puzzled and looked at Shi Yu with doubt.
Shi Yu gnashed his teeth for a while and said, “Yes.”
Old Qiu immediately replied indifferently, “Since you’ve negotiated, then we’ll deal with it in the market price. But young man, we have offered you a better price. So don’t be regret and blame us later.”
Lin Xun answered with a smile, “Certainly I won’t.”
Seeing Lin Xun was so clam, the old people felt somewhat confused. They shook their heads and didn’t want to think more. He was just a young man of the third Childe’s friend. He wouldn’t threaten their status in Keystone Business at all even they offended him this time!
“Childe, since the matter is settled, we’ll leave then.”
