But if one asked him to agree to Huang Yueli’s condition, Mu Mingjiang could not bring himself to say such things at all!
After all, there was no such precedence before this. If he agreed to it and if the allied armies did not approve of this, he would be put in a very difficult position!
Moreover, the number of Spirit Armament illustrations that Huang Yueli would be selling was not just one or two pieces!!!
If it was only one or two pieces, he would still be able to handle it if any accidents were to happen after he agreed. But since it was twenty pieces…
The amount of money involved was simply too large. Even if he, a Divine General, were to sell all his valuables, he would not even be able to pay for ten percent of it!
Just as Mu Mingjiang hesitated and considered what he should do, Huang Yueli had already lost her patience.
She stood up from her seat in a second.
Stunned, Mu Mingjiang hurriedly said, “Young Master Li, what are you trying to do?”
Huang Yueli nodded and said, “Divine General Mu, I understand that you have your difficulty as well. But in a transaction, we can’t force things. Since the allied armies have so many restrictions and can’t satisfy my request, I can only choose to return empty-handed! Although I didn’t take any deposit beforehand and refined three Spirit Armaments, just take it as my contribution to the allied armies. I won’t charge you for those!”
Mu Mingjiang was at a loss for words after being rebuked by her in such a way.
Huang Yueli’s words were put across skillfully. She purposely mentioned the three Spirit Armaments to make it seem that she was the one losing out. Mu Mingjiang knew that he was in the wrong, so he did not find any further trouble with her.
Actually, Huang Yueli knew that those five Grandmasters who saw her illustrations and refining process today weren’t considered part of the army. So they wouldn’t draw the illustration and hand it over to the military.
As for Mu Mingjiang, he didn’t take any detailed look at the illustrations. Even if he did, it wasn’t something that a layman like him could remember.
So, other than wasting her time and the three Spirit Armaments, she hadn’t suffered a huge disadvantage.
As Huang Yueli pondered, she stood up from her seat.
“Divine General, since this is the case, I have other matters on. I won’t continue haggling right here. Goodbye!”
After that, she cupped her hands in greeting, turned around, and prepared to leave.
When she reached the door, she suddenly heard Mu Mingjiang’s voice.
“Young Master Li, wait! You… why are you in such a hurry!”
Huang Yueli’s footsteps stopped, but she did not turn back. She only said, “Divine General, to tell you the truth, plenty of other forces want to purchase my illustrations, and many of them have offered me a high higher price than the allied armies. But I was thinking of making some contributions against the demon tribe battlefield, and that’s why I have been waiting for the allied armies to offer me a price. But since the deal with the allied armies had fallen through, lots of people are waiting for me to negotiate with them! I want to quickly sell these illustrations so that I can focus on researching the art of Spirit Armaments. I have no choice but to hurry!”
Mu Mingjiang’s lips twitched when he heard that.
What was called a threat? This was an outright display of threat!
However, he couldn’t say anything to rebuke her at all!
Because he knew clearly how incredible the illustrations that Huang Yueli supplied were. If she were to sell it off, it was true that plenty of other forces would rush over to buy it!
By then, the higher management from the allied armies would see the Spirit Armaments everywhere, except in the allied armies. They would undoubtedly blame him for not handling the transaction properly!
It would be hard to say what kind of punishment awaited him when it came to that!
