Hearing Xiao’s answer, Shen Tianlin and Lin Xiang were stunned before reacting differently.
Lin Xiang was speechless. He opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, he didn’t say anything.
As for Shen Tianlin, he looked at Wang Xiao as if he was looking at a fool. A moment later, he burst out laughing.
“Just because you’re Wang Xiao?”
Shen Tianlin repeated and suddenly held his stomach and laughed. “Interesting! You’re really interesting! I originally thought that today was just a waste of time. I didn’t expect to hear such an interesting joke!”
“Joke? Do you think I’m smiling?”
Wang Xiao’s indifferent voice sounded. Looking at Shen Tianlin, who was laughing so hard, there was no smile on his face at all. Instead, he was extremely serious.
“It’s precisely because you’re not laughing… that’s why this joke is funny!”
Shen Tianlin replied intermittently, as if he was already out of breath from laughing. Wang Xiao only watched quietly, but his eyes had gradually become sharp.
When Lin Xiang saw this, he thought to himself that this was a difficult situation. Just as he was about to say something to smooth things over, Shen Tianlin’s laughter suddenly stopped, and a majestic and powerful aura spread out!
Hul.
With a muffled sound, an invisible aura instantly turned into wind. The originally elegant office instantly became a mess. Wang Xiao was pressed onto the sofa by the wind and could not move. Lin Xiang was even caught off guard and was sent flying out the door!
“Just because you’re Wang Xiao?”
Shen Tianlin looked at Wang Xiao expressionlessly, but his voice was filled with unconcealable anger. ‘What right do you, a mere level three lord, have to say such things in front of me?!”
“Because… I’m Wang Xiao!”
Wang Xiao gritted his teeth and repeated the previous answer. Even though he could no longer move, the corners of his mouth still curled into a cold smile. “What about you? A guy who only knows how to bluff with items?”
“A bluff?”
Shen Tianlin’s pupils constricted as he glared fiercely at Wang Xiao, as if he was about to flip out. However, the violent wind that wreaked havoc in the room stopped in the next second.
The violent wind dissipated, and the pressure on Wang Xiao’s body immediately decreased greatly. At the same time, he secretly heaved a sigh of relief. His gaze searched Shen Tianlin’s body for a moment and finally locked onto a sapphire blue crystal badge pinned to the other party’s collar.
“Is it that thing?”
Wang Xiao stared at the crystal badge and asked, “When you activated the energy just now, I think I saw it flash.”
Shen Tianlin looked down and smiled faintly. “You’re not bad. Now, you’re qualified to negotiate with me.”
As he spoke, Shen Tianlin tidied his clothes and sat on the sofa opposite Wang Xiao. The arrogant and despotic aura from before had completely disappeared. Instead, it became an endless deep pool.
“Minister Shen.’
Lin Xiang braced himself and entered from outside. He carefully probed, “What you did just now was to test Wang Xiao?”
Shen Tianlin smiled and did not answer. He only looked at Wang Xiao and asked in confusion, “When did you discover it?”
“When I entered.’
Wang Xiao pointed at the door and replied calmly, “At that time, I didn’t know that this was a test, but I already felt that something was wrong.” Shen Tianlin was interested. “Oh?” He said, “Tell me in detail.”
“It’s because your method of showing off is a little inappropriate.”
Wang Xiao smiled and picked up a fragment of a teacup and placed it on the table. “When Manager Lin contacted me, he said that you were already here, and it took me about ten minutes to rush here.”
“With Manager Lin’s respect for you, it’s impossible for him to let you sit here for more than ten minutes before making tea. If you really think that the tea leaves are not good and have such a rude personality, you should have fallen out from the beginning.”
Shen Tianlin nodded in realization. “It’s indeed suspicious that I waited for you to arrive before suddenly starting the act. However, do you dare to conclude that this is a test just based on this?”
“Of course not. There’s a second point.”
Wang Xiao shook his head and raised his hand to point at Lin Xiang. “Manager Lin specially reminded me to endure it and even said that your status in the headquarters is very high. You kept saying that you already knew it was a waste of time, but you still came in the end.”
“If it were anyone else, it might be explained as an appointment by the headquarters. However, they sent an important minister to personally come. If the Lord’s Shop’s headquarters really thinks that I can’t take out 100 billion star coins, wouldn’t this action be too contradictory?”
“In that case, it does seem a little contradictory.”
Shen Tianlin muttered thoughtfully. Then, he frowned slightly. “But even so, your guess still doesn’t have enough evidence. Aren’t you afraid that I’ll really attack you if you guess wrongly?”
“Yes, but I’m not very afraid.”
Wang Xiao smiled and raised his hand to show the [Protection Ring] on his finger. “This item is called the [Protection Ring]. It can open a defensive field of a unit area and block all indirect attacks. I don’t need to say anything else, right?”
“So you came prepared!”
Shen Tianlin laughed, and the oppressive aura from before had completely disappeared. He waved his hand and said generously, “Lin Xiang! Make two cups of tea! I want to have a good chat with Brother Wang!”
“Alright, Minister Shen! I’ll be right there!”
Lin Xiang agreed and turned to leave. Although he did not quite understand what had happened, he could tell that Shen Tianlin seemed to think highly of Wang Xiao. This deal was most likely successful!
This was a deal worth more than 100 billion star coins! If the deal was successful, his promotion to the headquarters would basically be just around the corner!
Thinking of this, Lin Xiang’s footsteps became much lighter.
At the same time, in the manager’s office.
Wang Xiao and Shen Tianlin sat opposite each other. The atmosphere was much better than before.
“I’ve long heard that there’s a young and promising lord called Wang Xiao in Kaiyang City. Now that I see him today, he’s indeed extraordinary!”
Shen Tianlin praised sincerely. Before Wang Xiao could be humble, he changed his tone and said, “However, the cost of these resources is not a small sum. With your one-sided words, how can we believe that you can settle this?”
Wang Xiao pointed at the various resources on the coffee table. “Aren’t these enough?”
“These?”
Shen Tianlin frowned slightly and only glanced at it before bidding. “Other than the higher price of the [Black Gold Ore] and [purple gold mineral], the other three orange items are more valuable. Together, they’re at most a billion star coins. It’s not even enough.
Wang Xiao sighed helplessly. After thinking for a moment, he asked, “Do you know how long it has been since I awakened my [Lord Talent]?”
Shen Tianlin shook his head to indicate that he did not know. Wang Xiao then extended three fingers. “It’s been exactly three months since I awakened my [Lord Talent].”
“Three months?!”
Shen Tianlin was shocked when he heard this. When he looked at the table full of resources, his entire face was filled with shock!
He was an executive of the Lord’s Shop’s headquarters and had seen many more and scarce resources than this. However, he had never dreamed that a lord who had awakened his [Lord Talent] for three months could gather so many resources!
“Do you understand now?”
Wang Xiao smiled confidently. “Although I don’t have money now, I have the ability to earn money, and I’m very strong..”
