"Mo Tai, it's time for you to learn more about Hua Xia's culture." Qiu Heng smiled. "As the saying goes, isn't it a joy to have friends from afar? As the host, I'm greatly disappointed by what you said just now in front of two guests. "Mo Tai was stunned.
Mo Tai was stunned. No matter what Qiu Heng's words meant, he would listen obediently and bear with it. Everything he had done just now was for Qiu Heng's sake. Now that he was asked to apologize for Qiu Heng's sake, he lowered his head to Xu Yun and Lin Ge without any complaints or hesitation. "I'm sorry, Mr. Xu Yun, Mr. Lin Ge. I was too agitated just now. I hope the two of you won't take it to heart. I'm willing to apologize and ask for your forgiveness."
Please forgive me. "" Tsk, tsk, tsk. That's pretty good. "Lin Ge clicked his tongue." Bring a bramble and ask for forgiveness? Sure, that's very sincere. I didn't know that it was popular to bring a bramble and ask for forgiveness in the Pacific Ocean. You don't have brambles here, right? What are you going to use instead? It's popular to use belts to replace brambles in our area. Is it the same here? "
The aggressive Lin Ge did not make Mo Tai back down. Mo Tai pulled out the belt on his pants without any hesitation, raised it with both hands, and placed it directly in front of Lin Ge.
Lin Ge was really stunned. He originally thought that Mo Tai was just expressing his sincerity. It was impossible for him to really bring a bramble and ask for forgiveness. He really didn't have to go that far. He didn't expect Mo Tai to be true to his words and really offer the belt on his waist to him with both hands.
This time, it was Lin Ge's turn to be at a loss for words. Was he really going to give Mo Tai a few slaps with his belt? That was more or less too much. But if he did nothing, he would be throwing his own face.
Fortunately, Xu Yun stood up in time to help Lin Ge out of this situation. He took the belt from Mo Tai's hands. "It looks pretty good. What kind of leather is it made of? It looks like it's made by hand. Did you make it yourself? "
With this interruption, Mo Tai didn't know what to do. He could only go along with Xu Yun's words and say, "Yes, I made this using the toughest piece of skin from a giant lizard I caught. It's all handmade. "
"I like this kind of thing," Xu Yun said and handed the belt to Lin Ge. "Help me put it away. Don't break it."
Lin Ge was bewildered by Xu Yun. Did he just take his belt away?
"We've been talking about reciprocity for a long time. I asked for a belt from you, so of course I have to return the favor." Xu Yun thought for a while, then took off a moisture-proof diving watch from his wrist and handed it to Mo Tai. This watch was prepared by E Yuan. Although it wasn't cheap, it wasn't ridiculously expensive. If he exchanged it for a handmade belt made of pure lizard skin, the price would be about the same.
Mo Tai looked at the watch that Xu Yun handed over and didn't know whether he should accept it or not. He could only look at Qiu Heng with an inquiring gaze.
"Don't look at your captain. This is a private matter between you and me," Xu Yun said. "I didn't ask for this belt from him. I asked for it from you. If you don't accept this watch, I might really get angry. "
Although that was what he said, Xu Yun really did ask for the belt from Mo Tai. However, Mo Tai still had to ask Qiu Heng. After seeing Qiu Heng nod silently, Mo Tai took the watch that Xu Yun handed to him. Just now, the matter of bringing a bramble and asking for punishment had instantly turned into a gift exchange. Lin Ge's awkwardness had also disappeared.
"Mr. Xu Yun." Qiu Heng knew that if he didn't make his intentions clear, Xu Yun would really leave. "Since you don't like to beat around the bush, I'll make my intentions clear."
"Is Captain Qiu not just passing by? Or is it a coincidence that you came to this island to rest for a while? " Xu Yun smiled. "No matter what Captain Qiu's intentions are, I'm afraid it has nothing to do with me."
"No." Qiu Heng didn't give Xu Yun a chance to evade. "I'm here to see you."
Xu Yun replied, "Oh. Captain Qiu is the famous leader of the Beluga Whale Clan, and I'm just a passer-by in the Pacific Ocean. We don't seem to have any connections, and it's impossible for us to have any. Why is Captain Qiu looking for me? "
"Mr. Xu Yun, you and I are both smart people. I don't think I need to answer your question." Qiu Heng smiled. "We all know the answer."
Xu Yun's expression was full of admiration. This Qiu Heng was very careful with his words.
"I admire your ability," Qiu Heng said bluntly. "I hope you can consider not continuing to be a passer-by in the Pacific Ocean, but becoming the master of the Pacific Ocean!"
"Hahahaha." Xu Yun laughed loudly. "Captain Qiu, I'm not that ambitious. The Pacific Ocean belongs to the whole world. No one can be its master. "
Qiu Heng was silent for a while. "Yes, there wasn't in the past, but that doesn't mean there won't be in the future. Mr. Xu Yun, please allow me to say something that you might mind. I've been sending people to investigate you for the past few days. I know that you're here to look for someone, and at the same time, to look for an island. I'm right, right? "
Xu Yun was stunned. This Qiu Heng was really meticulous. Before coming into contact with him, he had already sent people to investigate him in secret. He was preparing to win every battle by knowing his enemy.
"According to my speculation, the Mahogany Order in your hand shouldn't have been given to you by Headmaster Gu of the Hunter Academy," Qiu Heng said. "As for why you have it, I don't know, nor can I guess. But I'm sure that the trouble this thing brings you far outweighs the convenience it brings you. This point, whether you admit it or not, is undeniable. "
Xu Yun laughed bitterly in his heart. Qiu Heng's words made sense. Yes, the Mahogany Order did bring him a lot of convenience, but at the same time, it also brought him a lot of trouble. If it weren't for the Mahogany Order, perhaps he wouldn't have to stand here and haggle with the captain of the Beluga Whale Clan.
"That's right." Xu Yun admitted generously. "But there's one thing. The convenience this token brings me is the convenience I need. Even if it brings me trouble, I still need the convenience it brings me. "
Qiu Heng smiled. "Yes, you do need these conveniences. But have you ever thought that even if you don't have the Mahogany Order, you can use other methods to obtain these conveniences and get rid of so much trouble? "
Xu Yun and Lin Ge couldn't help but be startled. Perhaps there really was such a method, but they hadn't considered it from the start.
"I understand what Captain Qiu means, but … I already have a choice," Xu Yun said. "I appreciate Captain Qiu's kindness."
"Even if there is already a choice, so what?" Qiu Heng could tell that Xu Yun was moved, so he struck while the iron was hot. "This is just a multiple-choice question in life. As long as life isn't over, the answer can be changed at any time. Since you've made the wrong choice, why keep making the same mistake? Perhaps you'll get a different result if you change your answer. "
Xu Yun couldn't help but be impressed. Qiu Heng's eloquence was amazing, and his psychology was also on point. He could easily hit the weakest spot in a person's heart. It was really difficult to deal with such a person.
"No need. Since I've chosen an answer, it means that this answer is the right one for me. " Xu Yun declined tactfully. "Since I think it's the right one, there's no need to change it."
Qiu Heng smiled slightly. Could this be considered a match? Xu Yun was really someone who wasn't easy to convince. Qiu Heng knew this very well. It seemed that he still needed to increase his bargaining chip to truly move Xu Yun.
