Chapter 512: Chapter 265: The Nobles of Lu City!_1
Gao Wenyuan had completely attached herself to Fang Mu, and Fang Mu didnât need to explain any of his decisions to Gao Wenyuan.
Neither did Fang Mu have any need to explain himself to Gao Wenyuan.
Fang Mu told Gao Wenyuan so much, in order that she would relay the words to Gao Hongying.
Fang Mu asking the Gao Family for tripling the price of the transaction seemed like a he was asking for an exorbitant sum.
However, Fang Muâs approach was perfectly in line with the rules of the Dragon Rising Federation.
The Dragon Rising Federation clearly states that if the seller regrets a transaction within one day,
and the seller is willing to compensate with three times the amount, the buyer must measure the seller accordingly.
These rules are often used in the transactions between powerful forces.
On one hand, they restrict the powerful side, ensuring the rights and interests of the weaker party.
Without such rules, the buyer would be pressured to return the traded good at the original price because of the sellerâs strong position.
On the other hand, clear rules and regulations can effectively prevent friction between different factions.
Fang Mu did not violate any of Dragon Rising Federationâs rules and cannot be faulted in any way.
The reason why Fang Muâs demand seemed outrageous was because the three times amount of 5.5 billion Dragon Rising Coins would tally up to 11 billion Dragon Rising Coins.
But this difference was determined by the value of the goods themselves.
As for Fang Mu equating the curing of the Wave Soul Horned Whale with the treatment of the Giant Toothed Whale-
Although a bit inappropriate, itâs the fact that he had devoted Grandmaster Creatorâs resources.
Just like the She Family couldnât cure the Giant Toothed Whale, likewise, the Gao family couldnât heal the Wave Soul Horned Whale.
Fang Muâs statement that the She Family had paid 20 billion Dragon Rising Coins to cure the Giant Toothed Whale was a fact; the Gao family could confirm this with the She family.
As one of the five clans of Lu Du, the Gao Family could afford 20 billion Dragon Rising Coins, just like the She Family.
Indeed, 20 billion Dragon Rising Coins would have an impact on the She Family, but the damages were not to the extent of being fatal.
Fang Mu had confirmed this with She Wan.
Currently, Fang Mu was forcing the Gao family to expend over 30 billion Dragon Rising Coins in order to reclaim the child of the Soul Whale Princess.
Gao Hongying was helpless, even if he was unwilling!
At this point, the only way out for Gao Hongying to protect the Gao family was to retrieve the child of the Soul Whale Princess.
Gao Wenyuan turned cold when she heard Fang Muâs words.
Knowing Gao Hongying, he would not be willing to spend so much money to reclaim a traded item he had just parted with!
Her response would definitely aggravate Gao Hongying.
Still, Gao Wenyuan had to convey Fang Muâs words to Gao Hongying exactly as they were spoken.
Gao Wenyuan needed to consider matters entirely from Fang Muâs perspective, to protect Fang Muâs interests.
Gao Wenyuan was very aware of exactly where her loyalties lay.
Gao Hongying was waiting for Gao Wenyuanâs news at the old Gao family residence.
Gao Hongying had considered that it was probably not going to be easy to get the Whale-typed Divine Beast back from Fang Mu.
However, he did not expect it to be so difficult!
Almost all the porcelain in the study had been shattered by Gao Hongyingâs raging fury.
âUnreasonable! Mr. Jianmu is indeed unreasonable!â
âDoes he really think that just because heâs a disciple of the Grandmaster Creator, he can do whatever he wants?â
Under furious agitation, Gao Hongying seemed a bit maniacal.
On hearing Gao Hongyingâs words, Gao Wenyuan frowned and reminded,
âFather, it is customary in the Dragon Rising Federation to return goods at three times the price. It is within your rights to take the 16.5 billion Dragon Rising Coins.â
âAs for whether the She Family gave Mr. Jianmu 20 billion Dragon Rising Coins as a reward for treating Giant Toothed Whale, you can ask the She Family.â
âI believe that the She Familyâs Master will be willing to tell you the situation!â
Hearing Gao Wenyuanâs words, Gao Hongying instinctively wanted to scold her.
He almost slapped Gao Wenyuanâs face.
At this time, his daughter dares to speak up for a stranger!
But considering that after resolving the matter, the Gao Family might still be one of the five clans of Lu Du but definitely weakened,
In such a situation, the Gao Family must stick to Fang Mu and rely on him,
To continuously receive resources from him, so that their top warriors can make breakthroughs.
Only then, after one hundred years, can they recover their Yuanqi.
To do this, the Gao Family must rely heavily on Gao Wenyuan in the future!
Upon calming down and regaining his senses, Gao Hongying realized he couldnât refute Gao Wenyuanâs words and remained speechless.
Just because Fang Mu abide by the rules of the Dragon Rising Federation, the Gao Family was forced to give him the compensation he demanded!
As for the 20 billion Dragon Rising Coins that the She Family paid Fang Mu, Gao Hongying didnât need to ask She Junjie.
The Gao Family and the She Family have never been on good terms, only maintaining the facades of peace.
She Junjie would not tell him about it for nothing.
He had to pay an enormous sum to get information from She Junjie!
Moreover, the She family was always close with Jianmu. Even if She Junjie didnât give Jianmu that much money, he would definitely falsify evidence for him.
Gao Hongying fell silent for a full five minutes, and eventually sighed deeply.
âWenyuan, tell Mr. Jianmu, the Gao Family canât come up with 36 billion Dragon Rising Coins in such a short time.â
