Qu Shanling had thought about what he just ntioned, but he knew it was pointless to dwell on it, so he quickly set it aside. His main reason for inviting Qu Shanling was simply out of admiration for his reputation, hoping to have him linger for a while and learn so artifact appraisal techniques from him.
Of course, he also harbored the wish to have Qu Shanling help bolster the Nanmu Chamber of Comrce’s fa, but he hadn’t stated it as bluntly as that.
"What do you an, ’ah’? Just find a decent Heavenly Material or Earthly Treasure, make a big fuss about having , Qu Lingshan, appraise it for your Nanmu Auction. Then invite everyone you can, the higher their status and the louder their fa, the better. You can delay a bit, just make sure to build up the hype. Next, hire a few shills to stir up so trouble during the appraisal to make it challenging. It would be perfect if they could argue or even co to blows. Afterwards, I will step in to appraise for you, and I guarantee that it will cause a sensation for the Nanmu Auction, leading to a flood of wealth." Qu Shanling was indeed soone who spoke his mind clearly, his words now even more direct than before, spraying as he spoke.
But... But... Mu Nan was astonished. Was this old fellow, employing standard god-man tactics, really the sa high and mighty hermit who acted as if his eyes were above his head? Where was his integrity?
Mu Hanyan was also breaking out in a cold sweat. A god-man indeed, look at how skillfully he maneuvered, smooth and simple. It was hard to tell how many he had swindled with this trick.
"In truth, my master does possess genuine abilities; these thods are just common tricks," Sun Yuzhe said in a low voice, his face showing sha, as he saw the reactions of Mu Hanyan and Mu Nan.
A cold sweat ran down the foreheads of the two from Mu, dripping down. These were just common thods he was using, yet they were enough to incite conflicts and create montum for him. If these were the ordinary tricks, what then would the extraordinary ones look like? This god-man definitely has so "real abilities."
"How about it, my thod isn’t bad, right?" Qu Shanling said.
"Yes, it’s not bad, not bad at all. Thank you, Senior Qu," Mu Nan replied. Not a stickler for tradition, while this approach didn’t quite match his character, he understood the principle that there’s no business without deceit; he was not willing to go too far, but a bit of scheming and trickery was still acceptable.
"No need to thank . Just rember to prepare ten thousand Silver Coins for , and also share thirty percent of the Nanmu Auction’s profit with ," Qu Shanling waved it off as he spoke.
He had seen potential in the Nanmu Auction and planned to reap benefits not just this ti but for a lifeti.
"Ten thousand Silver Coins! Thirty percent of the profits!" Mu Nan’s jaw dropped.
To pay off the ten thousand taels of debt for Mu Hanyan, he was so desperate that his hair had turned prematurely white, almost to the point of selling his body. How could he possibly co up with so much money?
Moreover, just to act as a shill once, to take away thirty percent of the shares from the Nanmu Auction was far too greedy.
Mu Hanyan also frowned. Qu Shanling indeed had so fa, but there were other Star Divination Masters in the world more famous than him. He was asking for too much.
This Qu Shanling really treated them like naive country bumpkins, looking to deceive however he wanted and swindle however he desired.
"What’s ten thousand Silver Coins? My master easily earns tens of thousands or ten thousand taels at all tis. If it weren’t for the sake of Senior Brother Sun’s face, you wouldn’t be able to invite him even for one hundred thousand taels," said Qu Shanling’s bumpkin disciples with contempt.
There it goes again, flying high in the sky.
Mu Hanyan’s eyes narrowed slightly. This old god-man expected to take a big bite, but it depended on whether he agreed or not! Dream on about plucking feathers from the stingy Big Playboy Mu!
