The figure slowly walked to the shorter table and sat down cross-legged.

Pei Yuanfeng and I were breathing tense.

Master of Changming Sect - At this moment, each of us thought the same thing, and our eyes were like being worn by an invisible thread, looking straight into the bamboo curtain, as if we could see through the layer of bamboo curtain. But, the finely woven bamboo curtain could only reveal a faint outline, and everything on the other side was blocked by the bamboo curtain.

I could only see a vague outline. It was difficult to tell whether it was a man or a woman. However, it seemed that she was tall and walked very lightly, so she couldn't even hear any sound.

As soon as we saw him, we were both a little nervous. Pei Yuanfeng couldn't even hold back and wanted to stand up with his hands on the table.

But just as he had made some moves, the man next to him immediately said, "Mr. Pei, please be calm."

“…”

Pei Yuanfeng frowned.

Although he is not a weak scholar without any power, he is still the territory of Changmingzong after all. If he really wants to do it, I am afraid that things will not be that simple.

I shook my head gently at him, and he was silent for a moment, and slowly put down his hand holding the edge of the table.

At this time, the person inside also sat down and raised his hand gently.

Immediately, several servants came in and served us hot tea. The man inside also took a cup of tea and took a sip carefully.

Of course, we can't eat or drink anything. We finally got to face this person, but we didn't want a bamboo curtain to ruin our affairs like this. I looked up at Pei Yuanfeng, he met my eyes, nodded, and then said, "The person who came is the master of Changmingzong?"

The person on the other side of the bamboo curtain was drinking tea. When he heard his words, he raised his head and turned to him, as if he looked at him, and then nodded slightly.

Immediately, the young man standing next to the bamboo curtain said, "Not bad."

Pei Yuanfeng and I looked at each other, and our brows became even tighter.

It seems that the other party not only doesn’t want us to see his appearance, but even his voice is not intended to let us know whether it is a man or a woman.

As Liu Qinghan said, if they agreed, they had already thought of a countermeasure.

Now, we are only separated from each other by a thin bamboo curtain, and we can even see the outline of each other clearly, hear his breathing, see him drinking tea, and every move of every move, but we cannot act rashly, let alone move forward and lift the bamboo curtain, so that everything can be seen in the whole world.

This feeling makes people feel particularly frustrated.

Sure enough, Pei Yuanfeng's temperament was not so easy to endure. He frowned and immediately said, "Since the master of Changmingzong has arrived, why not show his true face?"

The young man immediately said, "The master has arrived, so why should he show his true face?"

Pei Yuanfeng looked at him: "What does it mean?"

The man said, "You two came here today to bid for the mine, not to meet my master. Now the map is in front of you, and the bidding is about to begin. What is my master like? It has no impact on the transaction at all. You should think about how to bid later."

They obviously made this statement in advance.

Pei Yuanfeng and I looked at each other and realized that it was difficult to force this person out of the curtain before bidding. After a moment of silence, he stopped saying anything and lowered his head. I looked at the person on the other side of the curtain, sitting there motionless, like a statue.

However, when I lowered my head and looked at the map in my hand, I felt that another gaze fell on me.

The man behind the curtain was looking at me.

It was not an illusion or an imagination. I could almost feel the touch of the gaze that passed through the bamboo curtain falling on my skin. The man's gaze was very quiet, but it had a bit of a shuttle-pacing sound, as if he was looking at something. When I raised my head and looked inside, the gaze did not retreat at all, but was hidden behind the curtain, but seemed to be separated by thousands of mountains and rivers, layers of fog, which made me even more unaware of it.

At this time, the young man said, "Miss Yan, Mr. Pei, have you seen the map clearly?"

Only then did I come to my senses, Pei Yuanfeng also raised his head, and both of us nodded: "Yes."

"Then, let's take a look at the contract."

After saying that, someone offered a contract.

Although I was full of my heart on the man opposite the curtain, because Liu Qinghan made it clear that he was determined to win this mine, and I had to look at the contract seriously.

The rough reserves of minerals, the power of fifty years of mining, the obligations that both parties should fulfill, and all clauses are clearly listed in this contract. Obviously, Changmingzong did not do such things once or twice, and they were also very experienced. So after seeing the contract, Pei Yuanfeng and I looked at each other and nodded.

The young man said again: "Then please write down the price you bid for."

As soon as he finished speaking, two servants walked out from behind the curtain, holding silver plates, with envelopes and a piece of snow-white paper in them, and the pen and ink were placed on our respective short tables.

Just as we picked up the pen and were about to write, the young man said again: "There is another sentence to remind both of you. If the bidding price written by both of you is lower than the price we reserved, then this bid will fail and both of you will lose the qualification to bid."

I raised my eyebrows slightly.

They were also very cautious, probably knowing that Pei Yuanfeng and I had a close relationship, and were afraid that we would cause some tricks, so they even calculated this first.

So I smiled, lowered my head and picked up the pen, and wrote a few words on the piece of paper.

After finishing writing, I looked up and saw that Pei Yuanfeng had already written it. He was folding the paper in half and putting it into the envelope.

I did the same. After putting the envelope back into the silver plate, the two servants picked up the silver plate again and carefully took it back into the curtain.

Through the curtain, we could clearly see the man sitting in front of the shorter table opening the envelopes of the two of us, taking out the paper from it and taking a look.

Then, the man fell silent.

The young man waited for a long time, but he didn't wait for a moment. He subconsciously looked back and saw the man raise his hand and gesture to him. He hurriedly walked in and took two pieces of paper from the man's hand.

When he picked it up and looked at it, his eyes widened.
