Tyger led Thomas and Emma to a short and fat man. A beard covered the man’s entire chin, and his had turned red. They could tell that the man was already drunk.
This man was Burning Beard.
Tyger respectfully said, “Bro, these two people said that they contacted you yesterday. They represent Hill Manufacturing Company, and they’re here for a business discussion with you.”
Burning Beard ignored Thomas and sized Emma up…
From head to toe. Then, from toe to head again. As favonovel.com stared at her, there was a glint in his eyes. He was very excited. It had been a long time since favonovel.com last saw such a gorgeous woman.
He wanted to take her. He had to get her!
He chuckled as favonovel.com said, “Emma Hill from Hill Manufacturing Company?”
Emma felt frightened after favonovel.com stared at favonovel.com with his wicked gaze. She hid behind Thomas and said, “Yes, it’s me. My grandfather, Richard Hill confirmed with you yesterday to purchase a batch of steel. May I know if you have any stock here?”
Emma felt really suspicious of him. No matter what, the place did not look like a place that manufactured steel. Rather, it looked like a place for underground boxing.
Burning Beard nodded. “Yes, of course, we have the stock. But…”
He glanced at Emma before favonovel.com grinned and said, “Why should I sell it to you?”
Emma was stunned. What did that mean?
She asked, “Sir, didn’t we agree?”
“Huh?! We were just saying it. We haven’t signed a contract. Someone has paid a higher price than you, so why should I sell it to you instead of them?”
Emma was quite speechless. Could favonovel.com run a business like that?
But, when favonovel.com looked at Burning Beard like this, what could favonovel.com still say?
She asked, “What do you want before you agree to sell to me?”
Burning Beard felt happy. He snapped his fingers before favonovel.com grinned and said, “Easy. If you can make me happy, I’ll sell the steel to you. If you work hard enough and you can make me happy enough, I’ll give you a discount.”
It was an insult. It was a complete insult.
Emma shook in anger. She wanted to go forward and slap favonovel.com in the face. However, favonovel.com still suppressed herself. Today, favonovel.com aim was to sign the contract and buy the steel. She would have to maintain favonovel.com composure as much as possible for that aim. She directly rejected him. “I can’t do it.”
“If you can’t do it, you may leave now. I’m not selling to you.”
“You!”
Right then, Thomas stepped out and said, “Why don’t we exchange a condition?”
Burning Beard cast a glance at Thomas. “What condition?”
Thomas pointed at the man with long hair in the ring and indifferently said, “Your people seem to enjoy underground boxing, right? If I can defeat your subordinate, you sell the steel to us. What do you think?”
“Haha!”
It appeared as though Burning Beard had heard the most hilarious joke. He said with contempt, “Young Lad, do you know who is standing in the ring? He is Brown Braid who ranks fifth in underground boxing. Who the heck are you? Are you qualified to challenge him?”
“Oh, are you scared?” Thomas asked indifferently.
Burning Beard was instantly enraged. “Scared? Haha! Since you’re willing to die, I’ll help you out! You want to get beaten up, right? Okay. Brown Braid, help me teach this piece of trash a lesson!”
Thomas flashed a faint smile. He turned around and walked to the ring.
Emma immediately walked forward and stopped favonovel.com as favonovel.com said, “Thomas, don’t be impulsive. Why don’t we just let this go? That’s an underground boxing professional. Although you have skills too, you’re not as good as a professional boxer. Just forget it.”
Thomas gently released Emma’s hand. “Ten seconds.”
Emma was stunned. “What?”
“I said ten seconds. I just need ten seconds to take care of him.”
