Misa Fukuda picked up the phone and made the call.
This call was naturally made to Lin Yu.
Lin Yu and his wife had already returned to the hotel.
Lu Xueqing was taking a shower when Lin Yu received a call from Fukuda Misa, and a slight smile appeared on his lips.
What could this woman want when she calls her?
It must be for the Dragon-Subduing Wood!
He never intended to hand over the Dragon-Subduing Wood in the first place, and now that he knows the other party is setting up a Bagua formation, he is even less likely to hand it over.
However, I still have to answer this call.
"Hello?"
"Hello Mr. Lin, I am Misa Fukuda!"
"Oh, who is it?"
"I am Fukuda Misa!"
"Fukuda what?"
"Misa Fukuda!"
"What beauty, what Sha?"
"..."
Fukuda Misa took a deep breath and said coldly, "Mr. Lin, I spent 5 billion to make an agreement with you to buy the Dragon-Slaying Wood. You're not trying to renege on your promise, are you?"
Lin Yu knew he couldn't keep up the act any longer, so he chuckled and said, "Oh, so it's Miss Fukuda!"
“Mr. Lin, you said you would give me the Dragon-Subduing Wood in three to five days. It’s almost time now. Is it alright if I send someone to pick it up?” Fukuda Misa asked hurriedly.
Lin Yu laughed and said, "Sure! Of course! But you'd better have the money ready!"
Misa Fukuda was stunned. "Didn't I already give you five billion that day?"
Lin Yu replied, "You are giving me 5 billion, but that's a deposit!"
Fukuda Misa paused for a moment, and after thinking carefully, she couldn't quite remember exactly what she had said.
However, in her mind, 5 billion was the price of the entire Dragon-Subduing Wood.
Unexpectedly, Lin Yu is now referring to it as a deposit?
Are you kidding me? Who would put five billion as a deposit!
Fukuda Misa said coldly, "Mr. Lin, I thought we were both people of status, so I didn't ask you for a receipt or anything. I believed that Great Xia is a land of integrity, and you are a big boss, you wouldn't lie to me for a piece of wood, would you?"
"Hey, don't bring up integrity! I did say it was a deposit. If you want to buy, you can buy; if you don't, then forget it. In business, honesty is the rule!"
Misa Fukuda took a deep breath.
That kid is so cunning!
If I had known this would happen, I should have asked them to write a receipt or something. Now look what's happened, they're refusing to acknowledge it!
It was mainly due to her carelessness. After all, no one in China had ever dared to deceive her; she underestimated the cunning of the Great Xia people!
It's too late to say all this now; the other party is clearly trying to raise the price on the spot.
However, the Fukuda family has plenty of money, so she can afford it. As long as she can successfully buy the Dragon-Subduing Wood, spending a little more money is nothing.
Thinking of this, she quickly asked, "Mr. Lin, how much more money do I need to pay before you hand over the Dragon-Subduing Wood to me?"
Lin Yu thought for a moment and said, "Didn't you want to use the Dragon-Subduing Wood to cure your father's illness? This is a life-saving piece of wood, it's not unreasonable for me to ask for more, is it?"
"Yes, yes! I'll agree to any price you ask for!"
"Great! Miss Fukuda is truly admirable for her filial piety; I'm deeply moved. I won't ask for more. How about this: give me another 500 billion, and I'll sell you the Dragon-Subduing Wood!"
Fukuda Misa was initially quite happy, but when she heard the final figure of 500 billion, her smile froze on her face.
Five...hundred billion?
Are you kidding me?
It's worth noting that Kyoto, Japan, only has a GDP of a few trillion yen a year!
Five hundred billion is equivalent to the total assets of a chaebol family in this country!
This kid is asking for the moon!
Fukuda Misa couldn't hold back any longer and said through gritted teeth, "Mr. Lin, you're not playing me, are you? I really can't come up with 500 billion. I can only offer 20 billion at most. If you agree, I'll immediately have my family mobilize the funds. We'll exchange money for goods on the spot!"
"Two hundred billion? Are you trying to fob me off? Since you don't want to buy, I'm hanging up!"
As Lin Yu spoke, he was about to hang up the phone.
"Wait!" Fukuda Misa shouted immediately, her eyes flashing with cold killing intent, and said in a deep voice, "Since Mr. Lin is not sincere about selling, I will not force you, but you should return the previous 5 billion to me, right?"
"Give it back to you?" Lin Yu was somewhat bewildered. "Wasn't that a deposit? You changed your mind and didn't want to buy it anymore, why should I give it back to you?"
Fukuda Misa's anger surged. "A deposit is a prepayment. Since I don't want to buy it anymore, you should naturally return the money to me!"
Lin Yu said, “Miss Fukuda, I think you’ve made a mistake! The ‘deposit’ I mentioned back then was the ‘deposit’ with the ‘treasure’ radical, not the ‘deposit’ with the ‘speech’ radical. Our Great Xia language is profound and complex. ‘Deposit’ and ‘down payment’ are completely different. A down payment can be returned, but you have no right to demand that I return the deposit!”
"Baka! Are you a scoundrel?" Fukuda Misa finally couldn't hold back anymore and roared angrily. This time she didn't pretend anymore, "Kid, I'm warning you, no one in this world can steal my money! I'm only giving you one chance. Obediently return my money and hand over the Dragon-Subduing Wood, and I might spare your life, otherwise..."
"Oh dear! The fox's tail can't be hidden anymore?" Lin Yu clicked his tongue and said, "Queen Fukuda, is this the true face of you Japanese?"
Misa Fukuda's pupils contracted, and she frowned as she asked, "You actually know me?"
Lin Yu sneered, "Not only do I know your identity, but I also know that you came to Guanzhong under the pretense of finding your cousin, but you actually have a much bigger conspiracy!"
