Seeing many people's excited expressions, Xi Wuya's heart suddenly skipped a beat, and he had a bad premonition.
From a fundamental point of view, Li Wuya actually held a neutral attitude toward Sima Yi's proposal of cooperation. Cooperation or non-cooperation did not make much difference to him.
Because regarding the conditions offered by Sima Yi, Xi Wuya had the same attitude as most of the people in the hall, that is, Sima Yi was drawing a pie for them and placing the castle in the air he had drawn in front of them.
As for the guarantee proposed by Sima Yi, Chai Wuya didn't believe it at all. No one was a fool. He could really do something to harm himself and benefit others. No, this was already to the point of killing himself and benefiting others.
The end result was just that the conditions given this time were treated as a piece of waste paper and turned into a mess of debts, and their path was wasted.
Even if they make this cooperation contract public, it will only damage the reputation of Maplewood Town. Compared with suicidal performance of the contract, losing some reputation can preserve vitality. This is what everyone will do. choose.
The most important thing is that even if Maplewood Town tears up the contract, there is nothing the Seven Shang Mansion can do. Once they fight, with the strength shown by Maplewood Town and Lingyun Valley now, they may not be able to take advantage of it.
If this were the case, then Xi Wuya would not be able to stand on a neutral point of view. The important reason for him to remain neutral was that even if Maplewood Town were to tear up the contract, it would only be after many losses.
One or two losses are not enough for a big force to tear up the contract it signed. Only when it realizes that there is no room for losses will it completely wake up and end its life.
Before that, Qishang Mansion could make a lot of money from this. This was the reason why Li Wuya chose to be neutral.
But now, Pi Wuya suddenly felt unreasonable worry.
Nothing seemed to have changed at all, and there were only benefits and no harm to Qishang Mansion from the beginning to the end. However, when he saw that many people were tempted, he felt inexplicably worried.
"What exactly is the problem?" Fi Wuya frowned. He originally planned to stand in a neutral position, but suddenly had an urge to completely deny this cooperation.
Just like the body's instinct in response to certain emergencies, it tends him to act accordingly.
Crai Wuya immediately said coldly: "Needless to say, I admit that the conditions given by Maple Forest Town are quite sincere, but this path is the foundation of my Seven Kills Mansion, and it is absolutely impossible for other forces to get involved!"
With one word, Li Wuya broke the news, and the prestige he had accumulated over a long period of time made everyone choose to obey. Even those who had already had feelings for him, they killed them in an instant and turned to unanimous denial.
Pei Wuya suddenly spoke, which immediately disrupted Sima Yi's rhythm. If he had continued to maintain the atmosphere just now, this trip would probably have been successful.
As a result, Xi Wuya, who had been silent all this time, suddenly expressed his attitude clearly and immediately broke the delicate balance.
For a time, Sima Yi's cooperation negotiations fell into a dilemma, and everyone returned to their original attitude, completely uncooperative.
Sima Yi laughed awkwardly, with a shadow between his brows, and said to Xi Wuya: "Master, where do you start from? We are just planning to borrow a road, and we have no intention of occupying this road. ."
Crai Wuya sneered: "It's impossible to tell. The benefits are so exciting. You have tasted the sweetness, and you are still willing to quit obediently? Don't talk about making up the difference as you promised. I'm afraid you will not be willing to get the benefits in accordance with the agreed ratio. It’s divided into two parts.”
"There are so many fights for profit, why should we take that risk?"
Sima Yi was silent for a moment, looking at Pi Wuya with flickering eyes. Unexpectedly, the biggest obstacle to the cooperation negotiations was Pi Wuya, who, apart from giving him a show of strength at the beginning, had been acquiescing to the changes in the situation.
However, this does not seem to be surprising. After all, at the beginning, Li Wuya did not hide his malice at all, and then only maintained his acquiescence when he realized that the cooperation he proposed was profitable.
But now he has suddenly changed his mind. Sima Yi has every reason to believe that the previous silence of Spi Wuya was just looking for a reason to firmly refuse.
Now that the reason is found, give him a fatal blow immediately.
In the current situation, it seems that if you want to negotiate a cooperation, you must first convince Li Wuya.
Suddenly, Sima Yi smiled and said: "The palace master doesn't trust us, do you want a reason?"
"Well, I'll give the palace master a reason!"
"Just follow the ratio I proposed at the beginning, but change the order. After handing over the minimum amount to Qisha Mansion in advance, we will use the road again."
"It's equivalent to saying that we use one million to buy the right to use the road for the first month, and then we have to pay the deposit in order to continue using it. How about this? The palace master is still worried?"
"Even if we regret it then, Qisha Mansion will only be the one who gains, and will not suffer any losses."
There was a moment of silence in the main hall, as if you could hear a pin drop clearly.
There is only one thought in everyone's mind right now. This Maplewood Town is really a big fool for paying such a high price for the right to use a road.
Even Xi Wuya was shocked by Sima Yi's words, but at the same time, it also aroused his vigilance.
If they can plan with Lingyun Valley to kill Xiefengya, can Maplewood Town be a brainless force from top to bottom?
He fought so hard to obtain the right to use the road to Qiancheng. If he didn't have a deeper plan, he wouldn't believe it even if he fought hard.
But what made Xi Wuya feel very bad was that as soon as Sima Yi said this, everyone's eagerness to move, which had been suppressed by him, suddenly emerged again.
Moreover, the number of people this time was larger and wider, and even several veteran elders and rich palace masters showed their excitement.
After all, this is a completely costless transaction. It is just for Maplewood Town to use, and it is not a complete sale of the road to Maplewood Town.
They are still the masters of the road, and all previous activities can continue, and they can also get a huge additional income.
After a few months, they have made a profit of several million, and there is still no downside. If they don't agree, it will make them look like fools.
Of course, there are some smart people among them, who think that there will be no such thing as pie in the sky, but given the general trend and the attractive interests, they are all worth mentioning.
This was Sima Yi's last resort before he turned against him, directly overwhelming them with huge profits.
If it still doesn't work, Sima Yi has no choice but to fall out. After all, he really can't bring up more chips.
Everyone looked at each other, and then everyone's eyes fell on Li Wuya.
One person coughed twice and said: "Master, I think it's not impossible to agree. The conditions offered by Maplewood Town are still very generous."
"Hmm... Ahem, Palace Master, I think it's feasible. It just gives us the right to use it. The initiative is still in our hands. There's no big problem."
"Master, if we have this extra money, we will have more funds for future arrangements."
"Palace Master, do you think you can agree to it? Of course, if the Palace Master thinks there is a problem, I will firmly stand on the Palace Master's side."
Everyone either expressed their attitude directly or gave subtle hints, looking at Crai Wuya expectantly.
As long as he agrees, the level of life in Qishang Mansion will quickly rise to a level that can be seen with the naked eye.
They, the senior officials of the Qishang Mansion, are of course the ones with the most vested interests. Whether they use it for fun or to purchase materials to enhance their strength, it is a good choice.
The rapid change in the situation made Crai Wuya's brows twitch. He glanced at Sima Yi, who was expressionless and desperate, and sneered: "A good trick, but if you think you can coerce me like this, you are totally wrong!"
"Listen clearly, I don't agree!"
The atmosphere in the hall suddenly cooled down with the words of Crai Wuya, and it dropped to freezing point in an instant. Everyone looked at Crai Wuya in confusion.
I don’t understand. It’s understandable that I didn’t agree before. There is a possibility that Maplewood Town will default on its debt.
But now Fenglin Town has said to pay first and then use it, which will not do any harm to Qishang Mansion. Why doesn't Chai Wuya agree?
Just when everyone was about to persuade them, Li Wuya glanced at them coldly and said, "You don't need to say anything more. There is absolutely no chance of this matter turning around."
"We can definitely save up bit by bit what Maplewood Town promised, but Maplewood Town suddenly came to give us a big gift. Do you think it's possible to say that the whole thing is for the sake of Seven Shang Mansion?"
"Rather than take unknown huge risks for short-term huge benefits, I would rather not accept it."
"Besides, don't forget that Xiefengya was destroyed not long ago by someone you consider to be the enemy."
Crai Wuya's words were like a large basin of ice water poured on their heads. The heat in their hearts suddenly cooled down by half and they became hesitant.
The result was that the tiny gap that Sima Yi had torn open with all his might was once again blocked by Fissure Wuya.
Looking directly at Sima Yi, Chai Wuya said calmly: "Is there anything else you want to say, Messenger Sima? If not, please come back. We have other things to do and don't have time to entertain this distinguished guest like you."
Sima Yi sighed quietly: "Is there really no possibility of reaching an agreement?"
Crai Wuya sneered: "Absolutely impossible!"
Hearing the categorical rejection from Xi Wuya, Sima Yi had no choice but to say: "Actually, I really don't want to go to the last step, but the master of the palace always lacks trust in us."
"But, I will leave it here now. We, Maple Forest Town, must at least get the right to use the road leading to Qiancheng. No matter who we face, those who block the road will fight until death!"
"I'll tell you the truth. What do you think Maplewood Town is doing by uniting with Lingyun Valley to destroy Xiefeng Cliff? Is it just to dominate the inner circle? Or to march into the so-called core?"
"No, no, no, I think you must have misunderstood. Everything Maple Forest Town has done is just to open the road to Qiancheng, and we will do whatever it takes!"
"So if we can't reach an agreement with Qishang Mansion, I'm sorry. Xie Feng Ya may not have gone very far yet, so you can be a companion."
