1901: Cooperation 2

Cooperation 2

Duan Feng was impressed by Lady Chaoyan's boldness and ambition. Hearing her proposal for a 50/50 deal with Haitian Auction House took him by surprise, especially since it was only their second meeting. He admired her straightforwardness, which set her apart from others he had encountered.2

Haitian Auction House had always been held in high regard, with a long-standing reputation. Lady Chaoyan's audacity made her stand out even more, as she seemed unafraid to challenge the established norms.

On the other hand, Piaomiao Pavilion, known for its exceptional pills and large number of alchemists, believed they held a monopoly over the alchemy industry. They had gained a strong reputation and attracted many talented individuals. It appeared that they desired control over Haitian Auction House as well.

However, Piaomiao Pavilion had always operated discreetly, often resorting to subtle threats to influence Haitian's decisions.

In contrast, Duan Feng found Lady Chaoyan's approach refreshing. Not only did she possess superior pills compared to Piaomiao Pavilion, but she also openly expressed her ambitions and desires. Working with someone as transparent and ambitious as her seemed like a straightforward and rewarding experience.

Moreover…

Most of what Piaomiao Pavilion could offer were pills that could quickly enhance magical power. However, Lady Chaoyan's offerings went beyond that. She had a variety of unique and diverse pills that had the potential to save lives if used correctly.

Considering the benefits, a 50/50 deal with two additional free items for Haitian Auction House was already an excellent offer.

Furthermore, if they collaborated, there were opportunities to strike additional deals or acquire more valuable items. Working together would make everything much easier.

Duan Feng believed it was a favorable agreement.

However…

Haitian Auction House had never engaged in such a partnership before. While Duan Feng recognized the potential in the deal, he couldn't agree outright.

"Lady Chaoyan, I need to discuss this proposal with Mr. Head. Could you please wait here for a while until I speak with him?" Duan Feng asked.

Gu Chaoyan nodded, her anticipation evident. Duan Feng's suggestion of discussing the matter with their master indicated that he was inclined to approve the proposal.

This meant things were likely to work out as she had hoped. If all went well, their trip to Haitian would be an overwhelming success, granting them everything they desired.

Feeling relieved, she found a seat and enjoyed a cup of tea provided in the room. The tea was delightful, although lacking a certain charm. Nevertheless, it was still quite tasty.

Meanwhile, Duan Feng had already set off to locate the true owner of Haitian Auction House.

"I have heard what you said," spoke a hoarse voice from the masked man. "Agree to her proposal."
