Chapter 5132

Hearing Kant's words, Hobson's eyes suddenly widened in shock.

Seeing the change in Hobson's expression, Kant knew that he had misspoken. He immediately smiled and said, "I'm just joking. What's with your expression?"

Hobson said, "That's quite a joke you're making.

Everyone's saying that you got something good and sold it for a high price. "

Kant looked at Hobson carefully and found that his expression didn't change. He nodded and said, "That's right. Lord Zi Chen found it. Of course it's something good."

Hobson also nodded and asked, "Why are you looking for me today?"

Kant said, "I've been free recently. Lord Zi Chen gave me … some salary, so I wanted to find someone to drink with.

You know that my friends haven't been very friendly to me recently. "

Hobson had heard about this and knew the reason. Naturally, it was because of Zi Chen.

He said, "Maybe there's some misunderstanding between you two. It'll be fine if you resolve it."

Kant sighed and said, "It's really a misunderstanding!

They don't know Zi Chen well. Not to mention Lord Zi Chen's fighting ability, just in terms of business, Lord Zi Chen's brain is almost invincible.

Hey, you know, those lousy … Haha … "

Kant, who was a little carried away, coughed lightly and sighed. "You don't know, but Lord Zi Chen has been very worried recently.

He found the black stone by accident, and it's extremely valuable. He wanted to lower the price, so he put it in the Hall of Spiritual Spells. He didn't expect that someone else would also find its value and want to buy it. He had no choice but to raise the price, hoping that the other party would back off.

He didn't expect that even if the price was doubled, that person would still want it. So now it's a little troublesome … "

Kant continued, "You don't know how worried Lord Zi Chen has been recently. He doesn't even want to eat or drink.

Even now, he's still trying to think of a way to make them back off and give up. "

Hobson listened quietly and didn't interrupt.

However, he was examining how much of Kant's words were true and how much was false.

"Sir Zi Chen asked me to think of a solution, but how could I?

That's why I'm also very worried and want to find someone to drink with. "

Kant patted Hobson's shoulder. "That's why I'm here."

Kant raised his wine cup and said, "Come, cheers."

After the two of them finished drinking, Kant left.

Hobson went back to his house, thinking about Kant's words all the way.

Not long after, Michael arrived.

Compared to Kang De, Michael, the hallmaster, had known Hobson for a longer time.

The two of them might not be friends, but they were definitely familiar with each other.

"Did you find out anything?"

Michael asked when he came in.

Hobson repeated what Kant had said at the table. The gist of it was pretty much the same, and he didn't add anything to it.

"I knew that the value of that black stone would be extraordinary!"

Michael said excitedly, "We're rich this time!"

In fact, he had looked for Hobson a few times, hoping that he could help him find out some information about the black stone through Kant.

After all, they had bought a lot of black stones over the years, and the amount of money they had to pay was astronomical.

Even if the seven Halls of Spiritual Magic worked together, they still couldn't afford it.

Looking at the excited Michael, Hobson's eyes were filled with pity.

He wasn't sure at first, but now he was sure that they had been fooled by Zi Chen.

"What's wrong? Is there a problem?" Michael noticed that Hobson's expression had changed.

Hobson didn't say anything, and he didn't respond.

Michael knew what was going on. He immediately took out some resources and handed them to Hobson. "Is there a problem?" he asked.

Hobson frowned slightly, but he still didn't say anything.

Michael's expression changed, and his excitement disappeared. He took out a second set of resources.

Hobson still didn't say anything.

Michael had a bad feeling. This time, he gritted his teeth and took out three more sets of resources.

Five sets of resources were placed in front of him.

This wasn't a small price to pay. He hoped that Hobson could give him more valuable information.

"What he told you just now was what he told me after he woke up.

Today, I was drinking with Kant. When we were drinking to our heart's content, he told me that he had become rich recently, and that Zi Chen had given him a lot of rewards. "

Hobson put away the five sets of resources.

"Rich?" Michael's heart skipped a beat.

"I asked him why, and he blurted out that someone had bought the black stones at a high price," Hobson said.

"Everyone knows about this. That's not strange, right?"

Michael was a little unhappy. Just because everyone knew about this, Hobson wanted five sets of resources from him?

Hobson sneered and said, "What if you added the word 'idiot' to that sentence?"

The black stones had been bought by an idiot at a high price.

"What?!"

Michael's expression changed drastically, and he stood up immediately. This was an obvious mockery.

Why was he mocking him?

Of course, it was because the black stones were worthless.

"Is your information reliable?"

Michael's face turned very pale. If this was true, they would lose a lot.

Hobson shook his head and said, "I don't know, either. You can judge for yourself.

When I heard that, although my expression wasn't as exaggerated as yours, it still changed.

He sensed it and immediately said that it was just a joke. At that time, I also said that the joke wasn't funny.

"After that, we changed the topic, but somehow, we ended up talking about Zi Chen. He praised Zi Chen very much, saying that Zi Chen was very smart and that no one could compare to him in terms of intelligence. Then, he seemed to want to give me an example, but he only said one word before changing the topic again."

"I realized that after the two missteps, he had completely sobered up. This time, he said that he came to me because he was annoyed. He said that the black stones were very valuable, but someone else had found out about it. They had been worried about it, but they couldn't find a way to make the other party back out."

Michael's body swayed, and he sat down directly.

This time, he understood that what he had said when he was sober was intentional.

It was because he had accidentally let it slip.

It was like a bolt from the blue. Michael wanted to die.

At that moment, he truly understood the value of this information. Not to mention five sets of resources, even fifty sets would be enough.

He first saluted Hobson and then quickly left.

Next, they had to discuss.

The seven of them sat together. After hearing Michael's words, they all looked as if they had been struck by lightning.

They had been fooled?

At that moment, everyone was burning with anger.

Some even wanted to call the bearded man over and chop his head off.

It was all because of this guy!

"Could this be Zi Chen's plan?"

One of them suddenly said, "His goal is to make us retreat in the face of difficulties."

The others looked at the person who spoke as if they were looking at an idiot.

It was obvious that this was a trap that Zi Chen had set for them. This was what they had hoped for in the end.

Looking at everyone's disdainful looks, the man said, "There hasn't been any news from inside, so they haven't said that this thing is trash."

"Trash naturally wouldn't send news. There will only be news if it's something good."

Michael gritted his teeth and said, "Looks like we've been fooled!"

At that moment, everyone wanted to kill someone.

At that moment, the bearded man and Durwood returned.

Both of them walked with their heads held high.

Because Zi Chen was playing tricks on them again.

The two of them came to look for Michael and were shocked when they saw everyone else.

The bearded man sorted out his thoughts and said, "Sir, this morning, that little girl told us that the production has increased again. There are 95,555 pieces a day. She asked if we could buy all of them."

The few of them looked at each other.

At this point, the bearded man smiled and said, "We knew that this was a trap to force us to back out. Of course, we wouldn't fall for it. We immediately said that we would buy as much as we could and that we didn't owe them anything."

Before the bearded man could claim credit, Michael kicked him.

If it was before, he would have thought that this was a trap set by Zi Chen.

However, with this piece of news, this was a completely different situation from how he looked at it.

The increase in production time and time again was obviously because they were afraid that they would find out and not buy anymore.

And they still foolishly thought that this was a trap set by the other party to force them to back out.

If they really backed out, would Zi Chen keep those worthless stones for himself to eat?

"Sir, why are you doing this?"

The bearded man was stunned by the kick.

"How dare you trick me. I want you dead!"
