The Unsuccessful Negotiation

When Zheng-Fu and the owner of the city saw eye to eye, the owner of the city called one of his soldiers at the door, who wore strong armor, to him. Then he whispered something to the soldier. The soldier then ran to the owner of the tavern and whispered something into his ears. Then the owner of the tavern ran upstairs immediately…

“Please wait a second. I just had someone prepare a room for us to talk.” The owner of the city explained to Zheng-Fu when he saw the suspicion on the kid’s face…

“Hmm…”

Even though Zheng-Fu did not completely understand what the owner of the city meant, he nodded along. He felt that the owner of the city was trustworthy, friendly, and sincere…

After half an hour had passed, the soldier in strong armor came back. He cupped his fists and said…

“Everything is all set, sir!”
