Tang Qing was troubled not because he thought Shao Xi was greedy, but because they had already taken out the best things they thought they could get on this trip.
Thinking about Tang Hao being able to give up that piece of arctic black iron, how determined is this?
Tanglou worked so hard to create six of the only hidden weapons in the world from the piece of arctic black iron, but he was not willing to use them himself. Now that he has given them all to Shao Xi, it can be said that he has reached his limit.
But Shao Xi said at this time that he wanted another one. Where could they get it at this moment?
The seven people stood there, looking at me and me, with embarrassment on their faces.
If it were anyone else, they might not even bother to deal with it, but now they are facing Shao Xi, who is a master of the "Qi Transformation Realm"! How could they dare to show the slightest sign of neglect when they were looking up to him?
Besides, you were eager to exchange the things in other people's hands, but now they think it's not enough. If you show the slightest dissatisfaction and they ask you whether you want to exchange it, you can only stare.
At this time, the scene fell into embarrassment. Everyone knew very well that there was absolutely nothing they could bring out that could compare to what was in the wooden box.
Although he felt a little embarrassed, Tang Qing still said to Shao Xi: "Now that we have brought all the things we think are the best, we really don't know what else we can bring out to satisfy Mr. Shao. Why don't Mr. Shao make a request himself? , as long as we can make no excuses, we will do our best to meet Mr. Shao's requirements."
Shao Xi also saw the embarrassment of several people and wondered if he had gone too far? He has already made money, but he still makes such a request, which is indeed a bit difficult.
But since Tang Qing can say such words, it proves that the other party has no objection to his request, but he just doesn't know how to satisfy himself.
Tang Qing said that he was allowed to make requests. At this time, there was no need for him to pretend to be a good person. As long as the request was not unacceptable to the other party, he would probably not be rejected.
So he lowered his head and thought for a moment, then raised his head and said to Tang Qing: "Today the seven sons of the Tang Sect gathered here and brought these several hidden weapons made of arctic black iron, which actually shows the sincerity of your sect.
"I just said that in addition to making a deal today, we can also be considered as friends, so the request will never be too excessive. What I want is just a promise from everyone here."
Shao Xi's words stunned everyone present. Do you want to make a promise? What commitment is required?
Tang Qing, like the other six people, was a little confused about Shao Xi's words, but he seemed to understand something vaguely.
It seems that there is a reason why Shao Xi has repeatedly emphasized that he wants to make friends with the seven of them today, but for the seven sons of the Tang Sect, it is difficult to compete with Shao Xi, a young martial artist who has reached the "Qi Transformation Realm" at such an age. It is a rare good thing to learn from a prodigy and become a friend.
But at this time, Tang Qing was not sure whether his guess was accurate, so he asked Shao Xi, "Master Shao, why don't you speak frankly, what kind of promise do you want from us, the Seventh Son of the Tang Clan?"
Shao Xi looked at the people present, smiled slyly, and said: "It's very simple. I hope that everyone here will promise me that no matter when and where in the future, as long as I ask for your help, then you will Do you have to do something for me, no matter how difficult it is?"
The seven people present looked at each other in shock when they heard this. Shao Xi's request seemed not difficult for them, but if you think about it carefully, it was actually an extremely difficult promise to make.
You must know that what Shao Xi said is that whenever and wherever he needs the seven sons of the Tang Sect to help him do something, then they must help Shao Xi complete the matter.
Moreover, Shao Xi finally emphasized that no matter how difficult it was to accomplish, it was equivalent to saying that once this request was agreed to, they would have to do whatever Shao Xi asked them to do in the future.
Even if they were asked to assassinate the current Holy Lord, they could not find any reason to refuse.
So this is a request that may not seem excessive, but in fact it will cause several people present to take huge and unknown risks in the future.
This is not a simple promise made between friends, this is a transaction and a condition of mutual exchange between the two parties.
Since it is a condition, it means that it must be honored in the future and cannot be discounted by half. This involves the credibility and reputation of the Tang Sect.
Either they don't agree, and once they agree, they must fulfill this promise no matter how great the difficulties and obstacles they face in the future. This is tantamount to Shao Xi binding the seven sons of the Tang Sect to him on a certain matter. Together.
As long as Shao Xi asked the Seventh Son of the Tang Clan to do this favor, no matter what happened, the Seventh Son of the Tang Clan must help Shao Xi.
Although Shao Xi said that he would only do one thing for him in the future, but precisely because he only asked for one thing, then this matter must not be solved by himself, and the risks can be imagined.
If they agreed to Shao Xi's request, they would have to bear such risks, but if they did not agree, then the exchange of the Nine Eyes Sky Stone would most likely fall through.
In this way, they really have no way to explain to Tang Hao after they return to Tang Clan. If they fail to bring the Nine-Eyed Sky Stone back to Tang Clan this time, they will inevitably be scolded by Tang Hao, but more importantly, he Tang Clan Maybe I missed this Nine-Eyed Heavenly Stone.
This Nine-Eyed Sky Stone is rare to see for hundreds of years, especially because it plays a vital role in the practice of Tang Sect's martial arts. If it is missed, it will be a loss to the entire Tang Sect.
Everyone thought about it again and again, but Tang Qing finally made the decision. He took out a round bronze plaque from his body and handed it to Shao Xi.
"This is my Tang Sect's token. Mr. Shao holds this card. No matter when or where he is, as long as there is a disciple of my Tang Sect, I can order him to contact the seven of us.
"No matter what Mr. Shao asks the seven of us to do, we will definitely help him complete it. Even if the matter is beyond the capabilities of the seven of us, we will ask our foster father to help us fulfill our promise to Mr. Shao."
Shao Xi reached out and took the bronze medal, put it in his hand and looked at it. He saw that the word "Tang" was engraved on both sides of the plate. The workmanship was extremely fine, and it could be seen that it was a rare token of the Tang clan.
So Shao Xi cupped his hands in front of Tang Qing and said, "That's great! Since you are so sincere, there will be no problem with this transaction between us.
"Although I seem to be a little greedy, I still want you to know the importance of this Nine-Eyed Heavenly Stone.
"From now on, if the seven sons of the Tang Sect encounter any difficulties, they will just come to Daliang City in Kyoto to find me. As a friend, I will do my best to help you."
Shao Xi's words also made several people present feel a lot more comfortable. At least they didn't feel that Shao Xi was taking advantage of them unilaterally.
Since Shao Xi said he wanted to be friends with them, Shao Xi would also help them if they had anything to do in Kyoto.
In this way, if something happens to Shao Xi in the future, it is their duty to help. Although there is an element of this transaction, it will not cause so much psychological resistance.
Shao Xi actually said this to take care of the other party's emotions. After all, the exchange of goods was a fair transaction between the two parties. Now he made such an additional request. Although the other party readily agreed, it also gave him extra money. Added to the trouble.
Although you can be greedy as a person, you cannot be insatiable. If you get a promise from others, you must at least return a promise to others.
Although he did not tell the other party that he was now an official in the court, and it was not too difficult for him to do what he wanted to do in Daliang City, Kyoto, but having his promise here would at least make the other party feel that this The deal is always fair.
Shao Xi opened the purse on his waist, took out the Heavenly Eye Stone and Nine-Eyed Heavenly Stone wrapped in it, and placed them on the table.
At this time, several people present looked at Shao Xi in amazement as he opened the cloth bag, revealing the twelve Sky Eye Stones and the Nine Eyes Sky Stone that they had been waiting for for a long time.
Among the seven, only Tang Ming had seen the Nine-Eyed Sky Stone before, so when the other six saw it, they all had expressions of surprise on their faces.
This thing may not be of much use to others, but it is a vital cultivation treasure for the Tang Sect. Especially the strange shape of the Nine Eyes Sky Stone made several people present marvel.
Tang Qing held the Nine Eyes Sky Stone in his hand and looked at it again and again. This was the first time in his life that he had seen such a magical thing.
After several people passed the nine-eyed sky stone back and forth and looked around, it finally returned to Tang Qing's hands. Tang Qing carefully rewrapped it and put it in his arms.
He solemnly raised his hands to Shao Xi and said, "Young Master Shao is indeed a strange man. I never expected that you can find such a rare treasure. It shows that you are not only capable, but also a man of great luck. I believe that you will surely succeed in the future." It is our great honor to make a difference and get to know the young master."
With that said, Tang Qing led the other six people to raise their glasses to toast Shao Xi, and Shao Xi also raised his glasses to toast those present.
After the transaction is completed, both parties get what they want. After drinking the wine, the atmosphere will naturally become much more relaxed, and the topics to be discussed are no longer limited to the things in front of them.
"Master Shao has such a high talent in martial arts, and his current achievements are above all of us. If my adoptive father sees Master Shao one day, he will definitely be happy.
"I wonder when Mr. Shao will be free to come to our Tangmen in Western Shu as a guest? At that time, we can all fulfill our friendship as landlords. Although our Shu land is remote, the food is no less than that of Daliang in Kyoto."
Shao Xi smiled secretly in his heart, do you think I don't know that Sichuan's hot pot and bacon are famous all over the world?
However, the thought of hot pot made Shao Xi secretly drool. He had never tasted Sichuan hot pot since he traveled through time. Now he is really greedy and drooling when he thinks about it.
"I plan to go to the Western Regions next year. If it's convenient then, I'd like to go to your sect to chat with you. After all, I've been longing for the delicious food in Shu for a long time, but it will cost you all."
"Wherever, Mr. Shao can come and we will welcome him, so why bother spending money?"
