"Where! Where! I am just the person in charge of the auction house, how can I compare to you?" Hannibal's little eyes rolled around and he said, "Count Zhang Yunfeng is a formidable young man! He is already a count at a young age.
The future is limitless! Maybe I will have to rely on your help in the future?"
"Mr. Hannibal is so polite. I already know the name of the Standing family like a thunderbolt. How can I, a little earl, compare to you?" Zhang Yunfeng said with a smile.
"Little brother, you can't say anything!" Hannibal said with gleaming eyes; "Who doesn't know that you, Count Zhang, is a popular man in front of His Majesty? He just repaired His Highness the Crown Prince in the duel field the day before yesterday, but His Majesty not only doesn't
Instead of teaching you a lesson, I gave you a large iron smelting plant for you to drive. This is the first time I have seen such treatment. But"
Hannibal suddenly tilted his head to Zhang Yunfeng's ear and whispered: "I wonder if you really have the kind of high-quality metal smelting technology in your hands that can produce high-quality equipment comparable to that of high-end equipment? If you really do, we will
The Standing family is willing to cooperate with you. As for the conditions, I can rest assured and I guarantee that I will be satisfied."
After hearing what Hannibal said, Zhang Yunfeng was secretly shocked. He had high-quality metal smelting technology in his hands, but he had just told Austin yesterday. How come Hannibal knew about it today? Could it be the Standing family?
Is your power really so huge that you can actually steal information from His Majesty's side?
"I wonder how the Standing family hopes to cooperate?" Zhang Yunfeng asked tentatively.
Hannibal looked around and said cautiously, "This is not the place to talk! Let's talk somewhere else!"
What they were in now was just the corridor of the auction house, which was indeed not the place to talk, especially to talk about secrets.
Anna and Milia were worthy of being from aristocratic families. When they heard Hannibal's words, they knew that he and her husband had a secret to discuss. They said in unison very wisely: "Husband, why don't you go with Uncle Hannibal? We
I’ll wait for you at the auction house first.”
Upon hearing this, Zhang Yunfeng smiled and nodded, very satisfied with his woman's performance.
And Hannibal also said, "Okay, I'll have someone take you to the auction house."
As he said that, he turned around and called to the corridor behind him: "Come two people and take Miss Anna and Miss Milia to the VIP private room reserved by our family."
As soon as Hannibal finished speaking, two beauties in red appeared in the originally empty corridor.
They bowed to everyone in the corridor, and then left with Anna and Milia.
"Dirty! Dirty!" Hannibal looked at the two women walking away, and suddenly winked at Zhang Yunfeng and said, "Brother, not only are you extremely qualified, but you are also superior to Yanfu! Not long after he came to Combeda, you brought little Anna and Milly together.
Ya is subdued, she is quite capable! You must know that little Anna and Milia are both famous little beauties in our Combeda. There are enough people to pursue them, but they don't like any of them.
Who would have known that in the end, I would kill two birds with one stone and turn a cuckold on that little guy Sacra, he is really a formidable person!"
It's just that Hannibal, a fat man, had so much fat on his face that when he winked, the fat would flutter, which made Zhang Yunfeng feel chills.
Looking at the big fat man with a lustful look in front of him, Zhang Yunfeng was completely speechless. How come this big fat man who looked just like Maitreya Buddha also had such a lustful side? It really is true that a person cannot be judged by his appearance!
Hannibal laughed strangely a few times, then straightened his face and said, "Okay, we'll talk about this later. Let's talk about business first. Come with me!" With that, he immediately walked ahead and led the way.
Zhang Yunfeng thought for a while and asked Xiao Jiujiu to scan the auction house through his mental chip to see the defense situation here.
Xiao Jiujiu quickly scanned the additional auction houses and reported the situation to Zhang Yunfeng.
The defense situation of this Jasmine Auction House is really extraordinary. There are two gold swordsmen, five silver swordsmen, and ten bronze swordsmen. As for the great swordsmen and swordsmen, there are even more, dozens of them.
, but there is no sword master guarding him, which makes Zhang Yunfeng feel relieved.
As long as there are no sword masters, Zhang Yunfeng will not pay attention to just a few gold swordsmen and silver swordsmen. Since there is no one who can threaten him, Zhang Yunfeng quickly catches up with Hannibal who is leading the way.
Under the leadership of Hannibal, Zhang Yunfeng walked into an extremely luxurious reception room.
"Please take a seat!" After entering the reception room, Hannibal pointed to a luxurious seat and said to Zhang Yunfeng.
Zhang Yunfeng didn't show any politeness and sat on it directly. Feeling the soft touch on his back, Zhang Yunfeng couldn't help but sigh to himself: "Comfortable!"
However, he did not forget what Hannibal wanted to talk to him. He sat up straight, looked at the fat man who had just sat down opposite, and said, "I wonder what cooperation Mr. Hannibal wants to do with me?"
"Haha! Brother Zhang is really quick to talk! I just like such cheerful people." Hannibal said with a smile.
Zhang Yunfeng curled his lips and said to himself, "But I don't like fat people like you."
"I have received news that I have a kind of high-quality metal in my hands that can be smelted to match the quality of high-end equipment, and the cooperation I want to have with you is naturally related to the high-quality metal in your hands." Hanni
Ba smiled and continued; "However, before discussing, I still want to confirm whether I really have such high-quality metal smelting technology in my hands. Of course, this is not that I doubt my brother, but this
The matter is of great importance, I must be more cautious, I hope my brother can understand."
"Of course I can understand this." Zhang Yunfeng nodded and said, "I do have the smelting technology for high-quality metals, otherwise His Majesty Austin would not have given me a large iron smelting plant for use without any reason.
.”
"Now that I have said this, it would be too insincere if I still don't believe you. Okay, let's get down to business!" Hannibal straightened his face and said seriously; "I
The first time I want to cooperate with you is to give me some high-quality metal equipment and sell it to our Standing family."
"I'm sorry!" Zhang Yunfeng shook his head and said, "The high-quality metal smelting technology I have is not very productive. Your Majesty has already taken care of it. I'm afraid I won't be able to do business with your Standing family.
"
"Haha! Brother Zhang, you are not very honest!" Hannibal narrowed his eyes slightly and said with a half-smile; "Although I told His Majesty that you can provide him with up to a hundred pieces of high-quality metal products a month.
The equipment has been completed. But I think when I told His Majesty, I still concealed some production, didn’t I?”
Upon hearing this, Zhang Yunfeng raised his eyebrows and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
Before, he only suspected that Hannibal, the big fat man, knew that he had high-quality metal. He had heard it through hearsay, perhaps from someone close to His Majesty, but now he heard that he didn't even know the output he had said in front of Austin.
He could tell it all, so he couldn't help but be surprised.
You know, regarding his high-quality metal output, only the four saint-level powerhouses present at the time. No matter who Hannibal heard it from, this shows that the Standing family or Hannibal is behind it.
There is a saint-level strongman in the background.
Hannibal, who was very close, could naturally see the cold light flashing in Zhang Yunfeng's eyes. After thinking about it for a while, he made a guess, waved his hand and said, "Brother, don't be nervous, things are not what you think."
, I heard this news from the Marquis of Slater. I happened to go to the Marquis of Slater last night, and His Majesty just sent someone to tell the Marquis of Slater about this matter. After that, Slater told me again,
So I knew it."
"Oh!" Zhang Yunfeng suddenly understood. Austin had told him that he would let his father-in-law Slater be responsible for taking over the iron smelting plant. If it is really like what the fat man Hannibal said, then
Things make sense. But what is the relationship between this fat man Hannibal and his father-in-law? Why would his father-in-law even mention such an important matter to him?
Hannibal seemed to notice Zhang Yunfeng's confusion and explained with a smile; "Slater, I, and Anna's father Tyson have known each other for decades and have been old acquaintances for a long time. And there are many officials in our Standing family.
Some of them are on the neutral side, so we can be considered an alliance with Slater and the others. It’s not too much to know this, right?”
After listening to Hannibal's explanation, Zhang Yunfeng believed it. Because he knew that Hannibal would not lie to him now, and even if he wanted to lie to himself, he would not use such an excuse, because as long as he inquired about it from his father-in-law, he would
The lie will be exposed by itself. Presumably Hannibal will not deceive himself with such a lie that can be exposed at any time. In addition, the attitude of Anna and Milia towards Hannibal can also prove that Hannibal
Ba's relationship with them is very good, so his words must be true.
Since Hannibal is trustworthy, Zhang Yunfeng did not hesitate and said directly: "Yes, the output of the high-quality metal in my hand is indeed more than that. But I have a question I want to ask."
"If you have any questions, just ask me, I promise to tell you everything." Hannibal patted his chest and said vowedly. But his chest was more exaggerated than that of a cow, and this pat directly created two swaying mountain peaks.
, Zhang Yunfeng almost vomited it out on the spot.
Zhang Yunfeng suppressed the urge to vomit, and after a pause he said, "I want to know whether our cooperation is your cooperation with me, or the Standing family's cooperation with me."
When Hannibal heard this, the smile on his face suddenly froze, and he squinted his eyes and asked, "I don't know what you are asking, what do you mean?"
Zhang Yunfeng fell backwards, completely lying on the luxurious recliner, and said with deep meaning: "You should know what I mean. I just want to know whether I am cooperating with a family or not."
Your cooperation."
"Is there any difference?" Hannibal's face changed slightly and he asked.
Although Hannibal's expression didn't change much, he was still seen clearly by the all-pervasive Xiao Jiujiu. If Xiao Jiujiu knew, it meant that Zhang Yunfeng also knew. He thought to himself, "When we were in the corridor before, Hannibal
Obviously he couldn't recognize me. If he was really appointed by the Standing family to discuss cooperation with me, there was no reason why he couldn't recognize me. So I wanted to deceive him, but to my surprise, I guessed it right. It seems
Hannibal really hid the truth from the Standing family and negotiated with me privately!"
"The difference is huge!" Zhang Yunfeng said matter-of-factly; "You know, your majesty has guaranteed the production of high-quality metals. If I cooperate with the entire Standing family, there will naturally be no problem. Anyway, Stan
The Ding family has a great business. If something goes wrong, the Standing family will come forward to protect me. But if I cooperate with you, Mr. Hannibal, then I will naturally have to bear a lot of risks. You also know that this crime of deceiving the emperor is...
It’s not a big deal! If this matter gets spread, it’s not something you or I can bear.”
"Ha! Ha! That's amazing! Nowadays, few young people can think things through so clearly. I really can't do it even if I don't recognize my age!" Hannibal said with a bitter smile.
"Then have you told me the truth?" Zhang Yunfeng said with a smile. This big fat man will not discuss cooperation with me for no reason. I am afraid there are some unknown secrets, but Zhang wants to know these secrets.
, and you need to say it yourself.
Hannibal thought for a while and then said: "Actually, my cooperation with you is equivalent to the cooperation between the entire Standing family and you, but that has to wait until I get the finished products made of high-quality metals in your hands.
After arriving in the family, let the family members check the quality of the finished products before deciding to cooperate with you."
"Hey! Mr. Hannibal, I don't want to hear these lies. I'll give you three seconds. If you don't tell me the truth, I'll leave immediately." Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Zhang Yunfeng.
.
Damn it, you can tell that Hannibal's words are false as soon as you hear them. If Hannibal doesn't believe in the quality of his metals, how could he be stupid enough to discuss cooperation with him? And it was still in the name of the Standing family before.
Now that he is using such an extremely lame excuse to evade himself, do he really think that Zhang Yunfeng is a fool?
"Hey!" Hannibal sighed deeply after hearing this, and then said, "It seems that I am really old, and I can't even deceive a little guy."
But when he saw the black line on Zhang Yunfeng's forehead, he quickly said, "The thing is like this, our Standing family is very prosperous, with a lot of collateral, direct, and direct members. In recent years, the physical condition of our old family leader has deteriorated.
It is getting worse and worse, so our competition for the position of the head of the family is naturally fierce. And our old head of the family has also spoken out. Whoever contributes more to the family will have a greater chance of getting the throne of the head of the family, so I want to use
With the high-quality metal in my hands, I defeated other family competitors and won the throne of the family head. This is what happened."
