"But … two hundred dollars is too much. It's twice as much as I originally expected! Even if our Jia Family has the Heavenly Jade Mine, we can't dig that much in a day! "Jia Musen frowned. He begged to differ with Yue Lingchuan.
One had to know that the spirit jades that he had asked Jia Hongyong for in the previous match had taken nearly a week for the miners to dig out the superior spirit jades and then carve them to remove the impurities before they could take shape.
Although the Heavenly Jade Mine had sufficient reserves of Spiritual Jades, Spiritual Jades were also divided into several grades. High Grade Spiritual Jades were not commonly dug out. Most of them were Secondary Grade Spiritual Jades and Waste Jades. It was precisely because the amount of high Grade Spiritual Jades was too little that the number of people entering the Venerable Realm was so limited.
The Spiritual Jades that Jia Tuyao snatched from Jia Huoyan in yesterday's match belonged to the Secondary Grade Spiritual Jades. Hence, they were much lighter than high Grade Spiritual Jades.
"How about this! Little Sen, I won't beat around the bush. If you can only take out 100 pieces of Spiritual Jades, then I'll give you a handwritten secret manual and some high Grade Spiritual Herbs. We're talking about a fair cooperation. I can't let you suffer a loss, right? "Yue Lingchuan slammed the table and said generously.
Jia Musen was speechless. So many Spiritual Jades could only be exchanged for a handwritten secret manual. Furthermore, there weren't any Heaven and Earth Treasures. It was only high Grade Spiritual Herbs!
This Yue Lingchuan was too calculative. We are the dignified Jia Family. Do we still lack those high Grade Spiritual Herbs?
"Uncle Yue, this is too little. How about … I don't want those high Grade Spiritual Herbs. How about you give me two secret manuals? Otherwise, 100 pieces of Spiritual Jades for a secret manual is not worth it. I won't be able to explain it to the Old Master! "Jia Musen thought for a while and decided to fight for it. He wanted to see if he could get Yue Lingchuan to agree.
"Hehe, I also know that you want to score points in the match. That's why it's difficult for you. However, I also have my difficulties!" Yue Lingchuan smiled faintly, as though he had made an important decision. He rubbed his chin and said, "In that case, let's understand each other. I will give you some natural treasures as compensation. I really cannot give you any more secret manuals. Otherwise, it will be hard for me to explain myself when I return."
"This …" Jia Musen hesitated for a moment. He reckoned that this would be the only result if he continued to negotiate. Gritting his teeth, he was about to agree when Xiao Chen suddenly said, "Senior Yue, it's not that I want to say this, but for an illustrious Venerable like you to haggle over every ounce with us juniors for such a small profit, isn't that a bit lacking in moral integrity?"
Yue Lingchuan laughed out loud when he heard that. He thought to himself, "Xiao Chen, you little brat. Weren't you acting cool with me just now? Why did he admit defeat now? Why don't you keep pretending? At that time, if I'm not happy, I won't even sign the contract. Let's see how you're going to report back then!
However, after being flattered by Xiao Chen, Yue Lingchuan was still very happy. He stroked his beard and said heartily, "Nephew Xiao Chen, you're flattering me! I'm only a Martial King at the Full Circle. How could I have the honor of becoming a Martial Honored? "
Xiao Chen's eyes flashed. He pretended to be surprised and asked, "Ah? That's impossible, right? Senior Yue, you look so dignified with white hair and a youthful complexion. How could you only be a Martial King? Don't be so humble! "
"You can't say that!" Yue Lingchuan was very happy and his nagging temper flared up again, "You should know that the Honorable Realm is not a place that anyone can enter just because they want to. Aside from providing Spiritual Jades, the younger the person is, the higher the chance of success. For an old man like me, I don't have such extravagant hopes! You youngsters, on the other hand, have plenty of opportunities! "
"So you're really a Martial King at the Full Circle. That makes things much easier!" Xiao Chen laughed coldly. He turned around and ordered the Jia Family's servants to bring him a piece of white paper. He then wrote a few lines on the paper.
"Eh? You … What do you mean? "Yue Lingchuan was slightly stunned as he looked at Xiao Chen suspiciously.
After Xiao Chen finished writing, he threw the white paper in front of Yue Lingchuan and laughed coldly, "This is an additional contract. Aside from signing the highest contract with Jia Musen, you must also agree to all the conditions in the additional contract!"
Yue Lingchuan could not understand these words. He subconsciously picked up the additional contract and took a look. Suddenly, he burst into laughter!
"Hahaha! I think you're crazy! It's written here. Not only will the Yue Family provide five handwritten martial arts manuals, they will also need to provide the Jia Family with twenty treasures at the price of fifty Spiritual Jades. Other than that, the Yue Family will also need to provide ten workers to the Jia Family to help them mine. All the earnings from the mines will belong to the Jia Family! Xiao Chen, are you serious? Are you sure you didn't write the contract backwards? "Yue Lingchuan held back his laughter and pretended to be serious as he read out the additional contract.
"Of course it's true. I didn't write it backwards either." Xiao Chen was unmoved as he replied indifferently. Although Jia Musen was a little surprised, he had absolute trust in Xiao Chen. Hence, he did not make a sound and watched quietly from the side.
"Nonsense! This is simply ridiculous! Xiao Chen, there must be something wrong with your brain! You should go see a doctor! "Yue Lingchuan burst into laughter again. He laughed so hard that he could not catch his breath.
He felt that Xiao Chen was a complete lunatic. He did not take his conditions seriously at all.
"I think you're the one with a punctured brain. Can't you tell that I'm not discussing with you, but ordering you?" Xiao Chen crossed his arms and looked down at Yue Lingchuan, enunciating each and every word clearly.
"What? You dare to threaten me? If I don't sign, can you still use force? "Yue Lingchuan stared at Xiao Chen and retorted.
"Of course not. Old Yue, you really like to joke. This is a fair competition. How can I use force?" Xiao Chen looked at him indifferently. "Furthermore, you are an old cabbage. Even if I use force, there is no need for me to use it on you!"
"You …" Yue Lingchuan's smile disappeared. His face was filled with anger. He was very unhappy with Xiao Chen's sarcasm. He waved his hand and said, "Alright, stop provoking me! How can I sign this kind of contract? If I want to sign it, I am an idiot! "
"Why are you talking so much nonsense?" Xiao Chen stared at him impatiently. He slammed the table and roared, "Sign!"
Just as he said that, Yue Lingchuan's body suddenly trembled. He stood there blankly for a while. Then, he picked up the pen with a blank look in his eyes. He slowly bent down and signed his name on the two contracts with the highest benefits and the supplementary agreement!
The contract originally had Jia Musen's name on it. Now that Yue Lingchuan signed, it meant that both parties had signed the contract. The contract was established!
Jia Musen was stunned! He thought to himself that this old fellow was quite humorous. No wonder he said so many useless things. Eating rice and not being able to stuff one's teeth. It was to prove that there was something wrong with his IQ! He was indeed an idiot!
