What made Xiao Chen even more confused was that didn't they say that the Liang Family and the Celestial Treasure Pavilion had sent people of similar statuses? Why didn't they stop Chen Jian?
However, despite his doubts, Xiao Chen also knew that he was not qualified to know these things right now. The only thing he needed to do now was to pretend to be very familiar with Chen Jian, and then let Chen Jian decide everything for him.
"Lord Chen Jian, is this little brother your nephew?" Old Man Yun Ying and the Liang Family Elder looked at Xiao Chen in surprise.
"What? Is there a problem? "Chen Jian glanced at the two of them.
He didn't give a direct answer, but Old Man Yun Ying and the Liang Family Elder didn't dare to ask any further.
"Alright, I don't want to waste my breath on you. My nephew is here to sell the Holy Celestial Fruit. He didn't inform me about such a big event. I just got the news and rushed over, so …" Chen Jian looked at the two of them and said calmly.
But before he could finish, Old Man Yun Ying and the Liang Family Elder both panicked.
"Lord Chen Jian, are you going to take the Holy Celestial Fruit back?"
Chen Jian glared at them and snorted. "I know the rules. Since this brat entered the Celestial Treasure Pavilion behind my back and wants to trade with you, I won't break the rules. We'll still trade, but how much are we selling the Holy Celestial Fruit for now? Apart from the unchangeable condition, I'll need to discuss the rest with you. "
"This … Lord Chen Jian, since you've come, I presume you've already prepared the conditions. Why don't you tell us directly? If we're able to satisfy them, then we'll definitely do our best to satisfy them!" Old man Yun and the Liang Clan's elders were present, and they smiled bitterly.
If they were to trade with Chen Jian directly, they would have to pay a hefty price if they wanted to buy the Holy Celestial Fruit.
The two of them were extremely displeased. They had initially thought that Xiao Chen was just a lucky kid with no background, and they had planned to fool him for a while. But now, Chen Jianlai had popped up out of nowhere.
Moreover, the way the two of them were so familiar with each other just now didn't seem to be an act at all, which made the two of them even more displeased.
After all, the nature of trading with Chen Jian was completely different from trading with an ordinary kid without any background.
If they were to trade directly with Xiao Chen, they could still reduce the price they had to pay. However, if they were to trade directly with Chen Jian, they would have to pay dearly for the Holy Immortal Fruits.
Moreover, they couldn't just ignore it. Otherwise, the Holy Immortal Fruit would definitely be taken away by Chen Jian.
"If that's the case, then I won't hold back! This list contains my conditions, and not a single one of them is missing! Liang Family or Celestial Treasure Pavilion, who would be able to gather these materials first? The Holy Celestial Fruit in my nephew's possession will belong to him! "Chen Jian had long prepared himself, so he tossed out a list.
"They really came prepared …" At this moment, old man Yun and the Liang Clan's elder were even more depressed.
Because Chen Jian's words simply left no room for negotiation.
To put it bluntly, they had no right to bargain with Chen Jian.
The two of them took a look at the list at the same time, and their expressions changed involuntarily.
"Lord Chen Jian, these conditions of yours … Aren't they a little bit … too much?"
To be honest, old man Yun Ying and the Liang Clan's elder actually wanted to say that the items on the list were a little too much, but they didn't dare to say the word 'too much'.
"Too much? Alright, if all of you aren't willing to pay, then I'll have an honorable reason to buy my nephew's Holy Immortal Fruit from him! Also, it's not like I'm breaking the rules! I'm not here on behalf of the Divine Secret Pavilion this time, I'm only here on behalf of myself! "Chen Jian laughed like a sly old fox.
His tone was clearly saying that they'd better not buy it!
"…" Old man Yun Ying and the Liang Clan's elder were both speechless.
This was because Chen Jian's words were too unreasonable, too overbearing, and too unreasonable.
"This … Lord Chen Jian, if you don't mind, why don't we report your requests to the higher-ups first?" The two of them had no choice but to speak the truth, as they really didn't have the right or the ability to make decisions this time.
"Sure, but you'd better hurry up. I still have things to do, so don't waste too much time!" Chen Jian nodded, not taking their words to heart.
Clearly, he already knew that the two people in front of him weren't the ones making the decisions this time.
However, judging from his expression, he didn't seem to be worried that the person making the decisions behind the scenes would reject his list.
Xiao Chen stood quietly by the side and watched.
Chen Hao's senior must have a terrifying background. Ever since he had arrived, both the people from the Celestial Treasure Pavilion and the Liang Clan had been suppressed the entire time. This gave Xiao Chen an indescribable feeling.
Even though the elders of the Liang Clan and the others had addressed him as' little brother 'earlier, it was only because of the Holy Deity Fruit in his possession. If it wasn't for the Holy Deity Fruit, experts of their status wouldn't even bother taking a second look at him.
However, now that they were in front of Chen Hao's senior, they called him 'Sir' out of respect from the bottom of their hearts.
This was the difference in strength and status, which made Xiao Chen even more determined to work hard to become stronger.
If he could become as strong as Chen Hao's senior one day, then he wouldn't have to be so overcautious about everything. He wouldn't even know how to sell the good stuff he had.
In fact, both the people behind the Liang Clan and the Celestial Treasure Pavilion didn't reject Chen Jian's list. Instead, they told Old Man Yun Ying and the Liang Clan's elder to tell Chen Jian that they were already doing their best to prepare.
"Then you'd better hurry up. The Holy Immortal Fruit in my nephew's hands will belong to whoever prepares everything on the list first!" Chen Jian said with a smile.
"Of course!" The two of them replied politely.
However, it was obvious that the Liang Clan's elder didn't look too good. When it came to the storage of materials, the Liang Clan naturally couldn't compare to the Celestial Treasure Pavilion.
Although Chen Jian's actions weren't deliberately biased towards the Celestial Treasure Pavilion, it was indeed more beneficial to the Celestial Treasure Pavilion!
