Chapter 219: Cheap Price (1/2)
The wait was a long miserable ordeal for Zhuang Ming. He was scared that Bai Xiaofei would be able to invite an expert. If that was the case, he would suffer a great loss. Unfortunately, one would always get what one feared.
When the doorbell of the VIP room rang, Zhuang Ming’s heart almost stopped beating. And when he saw the newcomer, he lost all hope. The newcomer was Feng Wuhen! Although Bai Xiaofei and his classmates had no idea about Feng Wuhen’s real identity, Zhuang Ming knew. The moment he saw Feng Wuhen, he felt both hopeless and shocked. How did they know each other?
“It has been a while, Deputy President Zhuang, Brother Bai.”
Feng Wuhen first shook Zhuang Ming’s hand before giving Bai Xiaofei a hug. From this gesture, it was clear who Feng Wuhan was closer to. Fang Ye had also arrived with Feng Wuhen, hugging Huskie in his arms. Bai Xiaofei was not stupid enough to hope that Huskie could invite Feng Wuhen with a single letter. Thus, Fang Ye was used as the messenger.
“Sorry, Brother Feng. I couldn’t leave so I had to get my brother to invite you. You won’t blame me for that, right?” Bai Xiaofei apologized with a smile.
“Of course not. But I heard you had made a huge sum of money, brother. I will never let go of a chance to make some money off a tycoon,” joked Feng Wuhen with a sly smile.
“Since you are here, I won’t allow you to leave empty handed. Deputy President Zhuang has many good things here. If anything catches your eyes, feel free to point it out,” said Bai Xiaofei. As for Zhuang Ming, his face turned unsightly.
F*ck! What do you take me for?
“I won’t be holding back, then.”
The two smiled again and stopped exchanging pleasantries so they could get started with business.
“We may start now. I believe Deputy President Zhuang can’t wait anymore, right?” said Feng Wuhen as he looked at the porcelain bottle on the table. This bottle had attracted his attention ever since he had entered.
“If I am correct, pills requiring a bottle like this must be the Feature Locking Pill, right?” Feng Wuhen immediately revealed his insight that far surpassed others. Witnessing this, the final trace of hope vanished from Zhuang Ming’s heart.
I’m finished! It will definitely be a great loss!
“If I remember correctly, the last time one of these appeared was two years ago. At that time, three of them were sold. The highest price was 5 billion Amethyst Coins while the lowest price was 2.5 billion Amethyst Coins.”
After Feng Wuhen spoke, Bai Xiaofei turned and looked at Zhuang Ming, “Is Brother Feng correct?”
“Yes.” Zhuang Ming had to force himself to answer this question.
“Things are usually overpriced in auctions. Of course, I am not going to make things difficult for you, Deputy President Zhuang. Let’s value the pills at two billion Amethyst Coins each. If you agree, I will take all seven of them,” Bai Xiaofei bargained ruthlessly, speaking like he had not heard the highest price at all. Yet Zhuang Ming had no choice but to accept it.
“Fine!” Zhuang Ming endured. If he refused, it would probably be hard for them to continue this deal. With a smile, Bai Xiaofei accepted the pills and gave one to Feng Wuhen.
“Brother Feng, you won’t refuse my gift, right?”
Feng Wuhen hesitated, but he eventually reached out for the pill. As for the suitable bottle to store this pill, he had one in his possession.
“I’ll be taking this, then. Moving on, you don’t have to be so polite with me, Brother Bai.”
