Chapter 2982 Throwing a Cup as a Signal
He said: "As I just said, it was a misunderstanding."
“…”
"Now, I just want to do business with Mr. Huang."
Nan Yan sat next to Zhu Feng and snorted coldly at the right moment. Her voice was not loud, but it was still very abrupt in the quiet and empty private room. Lu Taining had originally revealed a hint of ferocity, but when he suddenly heard this cold snort, his momentum dropped.
The other party, not even a woman, took him seriously.
Lu Taining was slightly annoyed.
When Zhu Feng heard the cold snort, a smile flashed in his eyes, but he reached out and pressed Nan Yan's shoulder.
Then he turned to look at Lu Taining and said gently, "Since you just want to do business, why didn't you say so earlier? If you had said it earlier, there wouldn't be such a big misunderstanding."
Lu Taining's eyes lit up.
"So, Master Huang, you agree?"
"promise?"
Zhu Feng smiled again: "I didn't agree."
"Um?"
His words changed the tone so utterly, leaving people perplexed. Xu Miaoming, who was sitting opposite him, also frowned slightly.
Zhu Feng picked up the wine glass in his hand, put it to his nose and took a deep breath, as if savoring the aroma of the wine. After a long while, he slowly said, "It's not that we can't do business, but, as Shopkeeper Lu just said, we are all businessmen, and businessmen are all profit-driven. You want to get my goods, but what benefits can you give me?"
“…”
"Can you give me something I want?"
Lu Taining hesitated for a moment.
Generally speaking, it is very clear at this point that merchants pursue profits, and the profits in their eyes are generally money. As long as the price is negotiated, there is nothing that cannot be bought.
However, judging from Mr. Huang's tone, it was obvious that he didn't want money.
Lu Taining looked at Zhu Feng hesitantly. The latter was still drinking slowly, as if he was in no hurry at all. But Tan Boyun, who was standing at the door, was a little anxious. He walked towards Lu Taining carefully. Just as he was about to say something, Lu Taining stopped him with a hand.
He narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Zhu Feng, with a sinister smile on his face.
Then he said, "I really don't understand what benefits Mr. Huang wants."
“…”
"It's just that I noticed something."
Zhu Feng raised his eyebrows slightly: "Oh? What did you find out?"
Lu Taining grinned and said, "Master Huang just said that it's not impossible to do business. It's indeed possible. In fact, it seems to me that Master Huang really wants to make this deal."
“…”
"Otherwise, why would we have to make a special trip to Xiajiang Town for transfer and even go through so many routes to ship out our own batch of goods?"
At this moment, a cold light flashed in Zhu Feng's eyes.
Even Nan Yan was startled.
To be honest, they had acted very naturally before. They leaked the information to the people in the inn and negotiated the deal with the people in the trading company, revealing the existence of this batch of grain without leaving any trace. However, they did not expect that the other party was not an easy person to deal with and still saw through their purpose.
only--
After a cold light flashed in Zhu Feng's eyes, an even colder aura emanated from his entire body.
He was completely motionless and not in the least bit panicked.
He just raised his eyelids, slowly looked at Lu Taining, and said: "Shopkeeper Lu... has good eyesight."
Lu Taining sneered and said, "We've been in Xiajiang Town for some time now, and we know exactly how to run a business. Since Mr. Huang is interested and has come here, why not get straight to the point and make things clear to avoid any further 'misunderstandings' at the Gaosheng Inn? What do you think?"
At this point, his tone was already very dangerous.
Nan Yan could even see that outside the private room, the people who had been waiting downstairs were now gathered at the stairs.
It seemed that as soon as the atmosphere in here changed, they would rush in immediately.
It seems that these people are also prepared.
They saw that Zhu Feng had a profound background, and even if they couldn't make the deal today, they wouldn't let him leave easily.
Thinking of this, she turned to look at Zhu Feng.
At this point, it would be natural to propose the benefits one wants in order to achieve cooperation. However, Zhu Feng did not speak. Instead, he glanced coldly at the people outside and said with a sneer, "Why, Shopkeeper Lu, do you think you can create another 'misunderstanding' in Jiuqu Tower tonight?"
Lu Taining didn't expect that he had kicked a hard wall.
This person actually seems to be adamant.
He held the wine glass in one hand, the veins on the back of his hand throbbing non-stop, and said with a desperate look, "Master Huang, do you want to try it?"
Zhu Feng sneered.
He said: "Whether to try or not is up to me. But, no one can threaten me yet!"
After saying that, without waiting for Lu Taining to move, he actually threw the wine glass in his hand out.
There was a crisp "bang" sound, and the wine glass fell to the ground and shattered. Immediately, all the people who had gathered below squeezed onto the wooden ladder and rushed directly towards the private room.
Xu Miaoming was horrified.
Of course, she knew Zhu Feng's identity, and she also knew that with his character, he would not be easily threatened. But even so, she did not expect that Zhu Feng would directly smash the wine glass. He should have known that Hang Seng Bank had made arrangements from the first moment he entered Jiuqu Tower, but he still did this.
It seems like he is deliberately trying to provoke the other person.
Lu Taining was also shocked.
Tossing the cup as a signal was indeed what he and the people below had agreed upon.
If this Huang guy is deliberately making trouble, then we should use some means to force him to submit; if this person is really stubborn, and even poses a threat to Hang Seng Bank - after all, judging from this incident, this person's background is not simple, then we must really take him down in Jiuqu Tower tonight.
They had indeed arranged all of this.
But he didn't expect that Huang Si actually broke the cup before him. Could it be that he had seen through everything a long time ago?
You clearly see through it, yet you still dare to come in?
Could it be that he had already made preparations?
Zheng Qun below could no longer contain himself. When he heard the sound of the cup breaking, he rushed to the front. The strong men behind him also took out the tips of their knives hidden in the dark, and rushed out from outside in an instant, ready to rush into the private room.
At this moment, countless thoughts flashed through Lu Taining's mind.
He suddenly said, "Stop!"
Zheng Qun and his men had already rushed to the door and were about to arrest Zhu Feng and Nan Yan, who were sitting there, when they suddenly heard his words and were also startled: "Shopkeeper?"
Xu Miaoming also stood up, his forehead covered in sweat: "Emperor—Master Huang!"
At this moment, it's about to happen.
