In the manager’s office of the Lord’s Shop.

Wang Xiao and Shen Tianlin sat opposite each other. Lin Xiang stood respectfully at the side. Everything seemed to have returned to the scene when they first met. However, the atmosphere in the office was much more harmonious now.

Wang Xiao took a sip of the spirit tea and felt the cold energy bloom on the tip of his tongue. A moment later, he looked up at Shen Tianlin. “Then is this settled?”

“Alright, alright, alright. It’s settled then!”

Shen Tianlin nodded repeatedly without saying a word. Then, he waved at Lin Xiang and said, “Manager Lin, did you hear that clearly? Please prepare the contract! ”

“Minister Shen, please wait a moment!”

Lin Xiang agreed and then unfolded the [Gold Contract] to write quickly.

Looking at the serious Lin Xiang, Wang Xiao finally felt relieved. After the “friendly” exchange between the two sides, this deal of more than 100 billion star coins was finally completed.

The condition agreed by the two sides was that Wang Xiao would buy this batch of resources at the original price. In the end, the total price was set at 115 billion.

Although it was not as much as a 40% discount, according to Lin Xiang’s previous offer, this was already more than three billion yuan less, so Wang Xiao was still quite satisfied.

In addition, Wang Xiao did not need to reserve a pit for the Lord’s Shop, but he needed to accelerate the cultivation of three mutated beasts for the other party for free.

At first glance, this condition sounded like he would waste three chances of the Ten Thousand Times Growth Increase System. However, to Wang Xiao, there was actually still a score to settle.

After he successfully upgraded his [Lord Core], the Lord’s Shop would definitely send over a mutated beast immediately. As long as Wang Xiao used his strength to increase its level and let the Lord’s Shop taste the benefits, the other party would definitely maximize the benefits of the remaining opportunities.

However, merchants would never be satisfied. They would definitely struggle for a long time to determine the next two mutated beasts. That was Wang Xiao’s chance to catch his breath.

Taking ten thousand steps back, even if the Lord’s Shop sent three mutated beasts at once, Wang Xiao still had an excuse to delay it. At the very least, he could find similar mutated beasts that had already grown up to make up the numbers. In any case, there were more solutions than difficulties.

Apart from that, there was another very important reason why Wang Xiao agreed to this condition. That was, the resources consumed during this period would be fully handled by the Lord’s Shop. However, the exact amount of resources “consumed” was up to Wang Xiao.

No matter how one looked at it, this was a sure-win deal. The worst outcome would be to waste three chances of the Ten Thousand Times Growth Increase, but it was not a loss compared to the benefits.

As he was thinking, Lin Xiang had already prepared the contents of the contract. After Wang Xiao took it and verified that there were no mistakes, he left his lord mark on the contract.

“Minister Shen, it’s your turn.”

Wang Xiao reached out and handed over the [Gold Contract]. After Shen Tianlin received it, he did not sign it. After taking a few simple glances, he carefully rolled it up and put it in his pocket.

Seeing this, Wang Xiao immediately frowned. “Minister Shen, what do you mean?”

Shen Tianlin hurriedly explained, “Brother Wang, don’t misunderstand. Once the [Gold Contract] is signed, it can’t be revoked. The amount of this business is really too large. My level is not high enough. I need my boss to personally sign it. ”

“Your level is not high enough?”

Wang Xiao revealed a suspicious expression when he heard this. “Didn’t you say that you wanted to give me a 60% discount just now? If your level isn’t high enough, why would you dare to make this decision?”

“It’s for business!”

Shen Tianlin laughed dryly, his face vaguely embarrassed. “My original plan was to negotiate the conditions first before negotiating with the boss… But don’t worry! Even with the current conditions, I’m confident that I can get the boss to agree!”

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Xiang chimed in, “Brother Wang, Minister Shen is right. Such big business needs the boss to personally handle it. Moreover, Minister Shen has a good relationship with the higher-ups. It won’t be a problem for him to negotiate.”

Wang Xiao did not trust Shen Tianlin much, but he still trusted Lin Xiang. He thought for a moment and nodded. “Then let’s do it. Let me know immediately if there are any results.”

With that said, Wang Xiao stood up and was about to leave when Shen Tianlin suddenly waved his hand. “There’s no need. There’s a result now!”

Wang Xiao was stunned when he heard this. “You just said that you wanted to discuss with the boss. Now, you’re saying that there’s a result. Are you kidding

“No, no. Brother Wang, listen to me first!”

Shen Tianlin waved his hand and organized his words before saying, “I’m 90% confident in this business, and these resources are huge. I need some time to prepare. ”

“Therefore, I want to invite Brother Wang to return to the headquarters with me. I can get someone to prepare the resources first. After I agree with the boss, you can directly take away the resources. This way, everyone will save time, right?”

Hearing this, Wang Xiao also understood. Although he did not know where Shen Tianlin got his confidence from, it was indeed reasonable.

As for the Yuheng Academy’s celebration and the matter of going to the military building… In any case, it had already been so long. It did not matter if it was delayed a little longer.

“Alright.” Wang Xiao nodded and reluctantly agreed. “Then shall we set off now?”

“Let’s go now!”

Shen Tianlin agreed and the three of them went to the top floor.

Lin Xiang opened the [Ancient Teleportation Portal] and the three of them walked in one after another. After a strange feeling of space distortion, they stood at the headquarters of the Lord’s Shop thousands of kilometers away.

The circle filled with the [Ancient Teleportation Portal] was still so majestic.

However, this was not the first time Wang Xiao had come, so he did not react.

Seeing Wang Xiao’s calm appearance, Shen Tianlin narrowed his eyes as if he was thinking about something. Then, he raised his hand and took off a sapphire blue crystal badge from his collar. He turned around and handed it to Lin Xiang.

“Manager Lin, thank you for coming.”

Shen Tianlin took out the [Gold Contract] from his pocket. “I’ll go find the boss first. Take my token to the storage department and ask them to prepare the corresponding resources first.”

“Alright, Minister Shen!”

Lin Xiang agreed and took the crystal badge with both hands. Then, he gestured at Wang Xiaoxu. “Brother Wang, please follow me.”

Wang Xiao nodded and had just raised his foot when he suddenly thought of something and stood still again. He waved his hand and snatched the [Golden Contract] from Shen Tianlin.

“Hey!”

Shen Tianlin was shocked. “Brother Wang, what are you doing?”

Wang Xiao did not say anything. He opened the contract and erased his lord mark. Then, he handed it back to Shen Tianlin.

Once the [Gold Contract] was signed, it could not be revoked. However, before both parties signed it at the same time, they could erase the lord’s mark and even change the content of the contract.

Wang Xiao smiled at Shen Tianlin, but his eyes seemed to have a deeper meaning. “Minister Shen, don’t take offense. I’m just used to being cautious. I hope you can forgive me for being rude.”

“Brother Wang, you’re being too serious. After all, it’s a [Golden Contract]. It’s only right to be careful.”

Shen Tianlin, who was enlightened, chuckled.. However, after Wang Xiao left with Lin Xiang, his expression suddenly darkened…
