Chapter 234 Fei Rui’s Incredible Rhythm
Tang En is now 80% sure that those people in disguise are coming for Sethman and the others.
There are many people with first-class strength. They planned it several days in advance and infiltrated the banquet by pretending to be waiters... For such a big project, except Sesman and the others, no one here is worthy of this treatment.
However, although he is willing to cooperate, Tang En can only wait now. If he rushes up to greet him rashly, the response will be a merciless killing.
At this time, those who entered in disguise did not make any big moves. Instead, they calmly stayed away from Sethman and stood far away in various corners, corridor entrances and other locations.
Tang En nodded slightly when he saw this. It was obvious that they also knew how powerful Xia Wei'an was and were worried that their identity would be discovered if they got close. Tang En believed that this situation would not last long. Since they had gone to such trouble to enter the banquet, they would definitely take action here.
What is missing now is an opportunity.
Do you want to be induced...Twain frowned slightly, raised his crystal wine glass and knocked his teeth. These people must have their own plans, but Tang En can't trust them. All he wants is for a conflict between the two parties, and then he takes advantage of the chaos to take action... "Hello, your wine!"
Tang En looked away without any trace, and looked at the waiter beside him in surprise: "I don't think I ordered a drink."
"A gentleman asked me to deliver it. He said he was your friend... It seems I made a mistake. I'm sorry!" The waiter looked stunned, then bowed to apologize and turned to leave.
"Wait a minute." A sudden thought occurred in Tang En's heart. He waved and took the white porcelain wine glass on the tray, nodded and smiled, "Sorry, I just remembered that that gentleman should be my friend. Well, thank you!"
"You're welcome!" The waiter nodded and left immediately.
After twirling the wine glass, Tang En raised his eyebrows, took out a folded piece of paper from the bottom of the glass, unfolded it, "Outside the side hall No. 3."
This is... "Arthur." "Your Excellency Arthur."
Looking at Bosco and Fei Rui who came hand in hand, and the note they held in their hands, Tang En touched his forehead, damn, he almost forgot to negotiate... After thinking for a moment, he stood up and said: "Let's go, let's go Go now."
Those guys who came in disguise made it clear that they would not take action now. In this case, it would be beneficial to the negotiations. Because once a fight breaks out, the first negotiation will have to be cancelled. Since it was an assassination, innocent casualties were inevitable. Who knows if the seller was among the unlucky guys who were implicated and died!
Side Hall No. 3 is the one on the right side of the main hall. There are many people discussing business here, and the people coming and going are not noticeable.
After exiting the side hall door, an old man with a sallow face was waiting here. Seeing them nodding slightly, he immediately walked out, and the three of them naturally followed him knowingly. Tang En could tell that the old man's face was disguised and that he was quite skillful, but this was completely normal. For smuggling, it was natural to keep his identity secret.
Outside the side hall is a promenade garden. I don't know if it is caused by magic. The temperature here is not low, and I don't feel the cold wind at all. In such an environment, the flowers in the garden are naturally blooming, and various fragrances are astounding when you walk among them.
There were guards in the corridor, but now they seemed invisible, allowing them to penetrate deep into the manor.
After walking for about dozens of minutes, the old man pushed open a room and motioned for the three of them to go in.
The room was very dark, with only a candle at the door. In the flickering firelight, a table several feet long and several chairs could be vaguely seen, but it was impossible to see what was opposite.
"Welcome, please take a seat. Jack, Arthur, um, and Sir Wilson King...? Haha, although I don't know if this is your true appearance, but you should be a noble, um, at least you used to be .”
In the darkness ahead, a voice that had obviously been processed and sounded a bit hoarse and sharp came.
Bosco sat in front of the long table and raised his eyebrows: "It doesn't matter whether I am a noble or not, but it sounds like you should be a noble."
It is not difficult to see Bosco's suppressed aristocratic temperament, because some aristocratic habits have penetrated into his bones. But it's not easy to see that he only used to be. The life of the Gray Army in recent years has indeed changed Bosco's situation to a greater or lesser extent. If you can see this, the other party must be someone who has been immersed in the aristocratic circle for a long time.
"Haha, believe me, guessing my identity is very dangerous for you." After a slight pause, a voice came from the other side again.
Bosco nodded and said solemnly: "Sorry, I was presumptuous."
It is necessary to show some ability before negotiating, otherwise you may be treated as the enemy by the other party. However, it is also necessary to master the degree of control. It is obviously inappropriate to anger the other party. Bosco is obviously very skilled at this.
"It doesn't matter. Big patrons always have to be treated differently... Well, there is wine on the table. Do you need some first?"
Bosco shook his head: "I prefer to have a drink after everything is done. For now, let's negotiate first."
"Haha, okay. I'm a little curious to hear, what do you want to buy with three million?"
Fei Rui was about to take out the list from his arms. He was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then he took a deep breath and said quickly: "Defend the city with twenty-five light, medium and heavy crossbows each, with three thousand arrows. Sixteen trebuchets. , thirty large repeating crossbows... Finally, six Thor's Hammers. Phew..."
In just a few dozen seconds, Fei Rui's mouth was like a repeating crossbow, spitting out hundreds of words in one breath, which echoed in the silent room for a long time.
He spoke so fast, and pronounced his words clearly and accurately, which made Tang En and Bosco on the side look askance.
The other party was obviously shocked. He seemed to be reminiscing and seemed a little dizzy. Anyway, he didn't speak for a long time.
After a while, he said, "Ahem, what you said is really slippery..." He sighed first, and then continued: "Well, did you bring the list? Let me take a look."
Wipe it... Fei Rui's head was filled with confusion. He took out the list he had prepared a long time ago and handed it to the old man beside him. I didn't want it just now, but you had to listen, and now I want it again... What do you mean, are you kidding me?
Click, click, click... The old man's figure gradually disappeared into the black, and stopped soon after.
Well, about four feet... Tang En's ears twitched and he calculated silently in his mind to calculate the distance between the other party and himself.
Tang En's main purpose of coming here is to protect Bosco and Ferry, of course, mainly Ferry. Bosco's own strength is not low, so there is no need for him. Although it was protection, Tang En preferred to attack, especially the simple and crude method of catching the thief first.
However, what stood in front of Tang En now was not just the distance. Even though it was completely dark here, it seemed that there were only a few of them. In fact, according to Tang En's perception, there were at least twenty skilled players on the opposite side waiting for an opportunity.
"These things..." The other party was a little shocked after reading it, and said hesitantly, "You are not from the Northern Wilderness, and you want to attack the town checkpoint, right?"
"You're kidding!" Bosco laughed and shook his head, "Even if we are Northern Wilders, do you think these things can pass through so many cities, checkpoints, and defense lines and be transported to the front line?"
"Yes." The other party seemed to be nodding in agreement, but thinking that he couldn't see it from here, he added, "That's good."
Bosco continued: "You have already seen the list. Now we only care about whether you have the strength to get these things."
"Haha, no need to be aggressive. As long as you have enough money, we can get anything."
Bosco looked happy: "So, our deal has been initially reached?"
"It depends on whether you have enough money...wait a moment, I will have someone mark the price after each item. You can see for yourself."
Not long after, the old man sent the list back again, with some additional unit prices at the end. Bosco and Ferry glanced from top to bottom and found that the price was not much different from their pre-estimated price.
"Don't worry, the absolute black market price in the north. You are a big customer, and this first transaction is just like making a friend. A total of..." There was a pause, and then another voice sounded: "A total of three million two hundred and twenty-five thousand. One hundred and eighty gold coins.”
"Well, although this is the first transaction, I can wipe off the change for you. How about a total of 3.2 million?"
Bosco nodded slightly, which was exactly in line with their price.
"It doesn't seem right..." Fei Rui frowned and hesitated for a moment. Finally, he pursed his lips and said, "It should be 3,192,580."
"Uh..." Bosco and Tang En turned to look at Fei Rui and opened their mouths. The list had been on the table for only about ten seconds and there was no time to calculate it. How could they see the error?
The other party had obviously thought of this problem and chuckled: "Haha, your name is Jack. I admit that you do slip up in your words, but talking nonsense is not a good habit..."
"What if his calculation is correct?" Tang En first glanced at Fei Rui with admiration, and then said loudly, "Do you dare to follow the previous rules and erase the odds?"
"Haha, it's another method of provoking generals... Okay! If your calculation is right, the rules remain unchanged and the odds are wiped out. But, hehe, if your calculation is wrong, you have to add me 100,000."
"Deal!" Tang En agreed without hesitation.
"Don... Arthur, alas..." It was about one hundred thousand gold coins. Fei Rui was no longer calm. He didn't care about anything else. His lips kept trembling and he began to make silent calculations in his heart.
"Don't worry." Tang En patted Fei Rui on the shoulder, then gave a thumbs up and said with certainty, "You are right."
The reason why Tang En was so sure was naturally because he had just entered the list into the system, and then entered the space to see that the result that appeared was exactly what Ferry had just calculated in his mind. At this time, Tang En also remembered that Fei Rui had said before that he was sensitive to numbers... How could this be so sensitive? It was clearly outrageous!
Swish swish... In a dark and silent room, hearing is always the most sensitive. The sound of a quill sweeping across the paper gradually came from the other side. And listening to this formation, it seems that more than one person is calculating... After a while, he said, "Three hundred and nineteen...impossible, impossible...I must have made a mistake, it must be!"
"Uh, I'm also three hundred and nineteen..."
"Me too."
"Impossible, impossible..."
Boom—bang! boom! boom!
The table on Tang En's side shook, and there seemed to be a sound of chairs collapsing. Then a hoarse and sharp roar sounded, "No way, your mother! You are the only one who has been settling accounts for decades... I said why your assets are getting smaller and smaller, and all your love has been fucking wiped out by you... Go to hell, go to hell... …”
