Chapter 241 Ningguang's Bid
Chapter 241 Ningguang's Bid
When the people around heard that Finina was going to sell the Night Stone, they hesitated and looked at each other.
Noticing their inappropriate reaction, Funina was filled with questions:
"What's wrong with you? Don't you want to buy this Night Stone?
Uh...even if you don't want to buy it, can you at least give me an estimate?"
There was another period of awkward silence, and the people around were so embarrassed that they were about to dig their toes into the ground.
With nothing to do, Stone finally spoke:
"Miss, it's not that we don't want to buy it, it's that we... can't afford it!"
Furninna was dumbfounded:
"Huh? Can't afford it!?"
Shitou continued to explain with a bitter face:
"That's right.
As you can see, this is a piece of top-quality Yebo stone ore.
How good is it?
Let me tell you this, all the Yebo stones produced in recent years are not as good as this Yebo stone.
It’s hard to say what will happen ten years from now.
But ten years ago, your Night Stone stood at the pinnacle of all Night Stones! No other Night Stone could surpass it!"
Holding this piece of Yebo Stone ore, Funina was completely shocked:
"Is this... so powerful!?"
Shi Tou continued to smile bitterly:
“It’s just that powerful.
The value of this Yebo Stone has long exceeded the wealth of any one of us.
It’s not that we don’t want to buy it, it’s that we really can’t afford it.”
After shaking her head to clear her mind, Funina asked dazedly:
"Then...can't you just give me an estimate?
At least I want to know how much this Night Stone is worth."
Shitou still smiled bitterly and shook his head:
"Feel sorry.
We are all small businessmen in Liyue, with limited knowledge and abilities, so we really don't dare to estimate the value of this Yebo Stone.
Perhaps... only the big merchants in Liyue can accurately estimate the value of, or even purchase, this Night Moor Stone from you, young lady."
Hearing this, Funina seemed to have found her target:
“Oh, so we have to find a big merchant in Liyue.
So, where can I find this great businessman?"
The stone is a little bit unpredictable:
“This…big businessmen are generally not that easy to meet. If you want to meet them, you usually have to make an appointment in advance.
But... you are a friend of Lord Gou Chenxing, so it should be easy for you to meet them..."
Before Shitou could finish his words, a truly big businessman arrived.
With a graceful and gentle temperament, a beautiful woman came slowly, accompanied by a secretary and several Qianyan Army bodyguards.
When the crowd around noticed this beautiful woman, they were all startled and made way for her.
As they approached Jie Cui Xing, the beautiful lady spoke in a voice full of emotion:
“This young lady from Fontaine
If you are willing, I would like to purchase this top-quality Night Stone.
As for the price I offered...
How about 36 million Mora?"
After hearing the voice, seeing the beauty, and especially hearing her bid, the people around gasped for the umpteenth time.
With a slight gasp of surprise, the beauty finally came to Li Cuihang.
After seeing that it was this friend, Paimeng beside Gu Chen also widened his eyes in surprise.
After coming here, the beauty didn't do anything else.
She just leaned forward first and bowed to Gu Chen:
"Greetings, Lord Gou Chenxing..."
The beauty has a graceful demeanor and considerate manners, and her every move is impeccable.
Seeing that it was a friend he was familiar with, Gu Chen also smiled and stretched out his hand to support him:
"Ningguang, no need to be polite."
Paimon also smiled:
"Yeah, why is Ningguang being so polite?"
The beauty slowly stood up, with a smile on her face, but a firm attitude:
"The etiquette cannot be abolished."
Yes, the one who came here to join in the fun was Ningguang from Tianquan Star!
Funina from Jie Cuixing watched this scene, especially the beautiful woman who saluted Gu Chen. She was a little confused.
When seeing Gu Chen being particularly gentle in front of this beautiful woman, Funina felt a little jealous.
The stone next to him whispered to Funina:
“This is Lord Ningguang of Tianquan Star, one of the Seven Stars of Liyue.
He is one of the rulers of Liyue, and also one of Lord Gouchenxing's subordinates."
After hearing the introduction, Funina suddenly understood.
So it’s the Seven Stars of Liyue, that’s no problem.
Ningguang on the other side saluted and greeted Gu Chen, then looked at Funina again with kindness and a little curiosity.
In Ningguang's opinion, although Funina is beautiful, her dress, appearance and temperament make her look like an ordinary Fontaine girl.
There's nothing special about it, not even the Eye of God.
Such a girl has a special relationship with Lord Gou Chenxing.
How did that happen?
Because...Funina is in disguise now.
If she faced Ningguang with her original appearance, with Ningguang's terrifying intelligence ability, she would definitely recognize that this person was the Water God of Fontaine!
By then, it will be another round of unnecessary trouble.
Anyway, Ningguang has officially met Funina, and the two of them are facing each other like this.
Finina herself didn't think anything of it, nor did she realize how high Ningguang's status or identity was.
After all, she has seen many people who are more powerful than Ningguang.
Maintaining a calm mind, Funina directly said to Ningguang:
"So it's Ms. Ningguang from Tianquan Star. I've heard of you for a long time."
Ningguang smiled kindly and then asked:
"Miss from Fontaine, are you a friend of Lord Gou Chenxing? What's your name?"
Funina answered subconsciously:
"My name is Fu..."
Gu Chen quickly interrupted calmly:
"Fufu, her name is Fufu, she's my friend from Fontaine."
After a moment of hesitation, Finina was immediately startled, and then she suddenly realized what had happened and felt horrified.
That's right! She can't reveal her real name!
Others here can't say for sure, but Ningguang, the Tianquan Star, definitely knows that the name of the water god of Fontaine is Funina.
If her name is revealed, wouldn't her identity be exposed as well?
So, with cold sweat on her head, Fufu nodded continuously:
"Yes, yes, my name is Fu Fu, I'm Gu Chen's good friend, from Fengdan, hello, hello..."
How intelligent is Ningguang?
She could tell at a glance that Fu Nina was hiding her identity and that the name Fu Fu might not be real.
However, since it was Lord Gou Chenxing who took the initiative to cover for her, what else could she say? She certainly wouldn't ask any questions.
In addition, Ningguang did not associate the nickname Fu Fu with the water god of Fontainebleau.
After all, it is outrageous that gods from other countries come to a foreign country to travel and act secretly while traveling!
No matter how wildly imaginative Ningguang was, she couldn't imagine such a situation happening.
Ok?
Speaking of this, why do I feel like a certain drunkard in Mond often does similar things?
Is it an illusion?
Never mind, that’s not important, let’s talk about Ningguang now.
Ningguang noticed something, but she didn't expose it. She just smiled at Funina:
"Hello, Ms. Fu Fu, welcome to Liyue.
Also, what do you think of my proposal and offer just now?"
