High Martial Arts: Becoming a Liver Master
Chapter 262 The Promise of Gambling on Stones
Liao Mingyu's furious voice made Chen Mo and Li Mengxue stop laughing.
Li Mengxue's face suddenly turned cold, and she retorted without any politeness:
"You're the unreasonable one. You're just an appraiser, what right do you have to lecture us?"
"Mengxue is right. We came to the Gem Tower to buy stones. It was a fair trade, and we never provoked you. You came here of your own accord. Even if we humiliated you, it was your own fault."
"Don't think that just because you have the title of a master appraiser, you can bully us and lecture us. You are not qualified."
After Chen Mo finished speaking, he looked at Manager Zhang of the Gemstone Pavilion and said, "Manager Zhang, we came here to buy stones, and we didn't break any of your rules, did we? Since you know what happened, the fault is not on our side."
"Justice resides in the hearts of the people, and we don't want to get tangled up here."
Minister Chen Mo, in response to Li Mengxue's question regarding the Party and government affairs department, replied:
"Mengxue, let's go."
"it is good."
The two then took the stones and walked towards the salesperson.
The onlookers instinctively made way for them.
Chen Mo and Li Mengxue's attitude shocked Manager Zhang and Liao Mingyu. They never expected that these two would show such disrespect to Manager Zhang, a grandmaster, and instead blame the Gem Tower.
Not realizing what was happening, they didn't stop the two from leaving.
The two had only taken a few steps when Liao Mingyu and Manager Zhang came to their senses.
"Chen Mo, you two stop right there! Manager Zhang is a Grandmaster. A Grandmaster cannot be insulted. How dare you disrespect a Grandmaster? This is utterly outrageous!"
Liao Mingyu spoke first. Chen Mo and Li Mengxue's attitudes clearly offended Master Zhang, and he stepped forward to help Master Zhang save face.
As the manager of the Gemstone Pavilion, even a Grandmaster like Zhang could not arbitrarily deal with Chen Mo and his two customers.
After all, Chen Mo and the other person only had a bad attitude and did not break the rules of the Gem Pavilion. As the manager, although he could expel the two, as a grandmaster, he should have the magnanimity to bully the weak in front of everyone.
Therefore, someone needs to step forward and point it out to draw everyone's attention.
He incited others to speak up for him, using his power to intimidate them.
This led to Chen Mo and the other person being punished.
Wang Zixuan also understood the implication and stepped forward, as he too needed to punish Chen Mo and Li Mengxue.
The attitude of the two men just now made him grit his teeth in hatred. The punishment for offending a grandmaster would definitely not be light.
"Chen Mo, apologize immediately! A Grandmaster cannot be insulted. Do you think you can just leave like this? This is the Gemstone Pavilion."
"Even if this isn't the Gem Tower, you understand the principle that a Grandmaster cannot be insulted."
The two paused upon hearing this and turned to look at them.
However, before Chen Mo and the other person could speak...
The onlookers then chimed in:
"Grandmasters cannot be insulted. You'd better apologize right now, or don't even think about leaving the Gem Tower."
"Apologize! Apologize!"
"..."
In addition, many customers gloated and made sarcastic remarks.
"Young people are so ignorant, daring to offend a grandmaster. They're really asking for trouble. If they were outside, these two would have been turned into scum long ago."
"Exactly! He broke through to the Martial Artist level at such a young age, he's a bit arrogant, but he has absolutely no vision. He offended a Grandmaster, and the Grandmaster didn't even need to say a word before someone helped him deal with it."
"This is going to be interesting. Let's see how they get out of the Gem Tower."
"These two young men are finished. What a pity. They broke through to the martial arts realm at such a young age; they might have been geniuses."
"So what if someone is a genius? A dead genius is no longer a genius; only a genius who has grown up is a true genius."
"..."
The customers hiding in the back were whispering among themselves.
"That's hilarious!"
Chen Mo remained calm as he looked at Liao Mingyu and Wang Zixuan:
"Liao Mingyu, Wang Zixuan, when did I offend Manager Zhang? What I just said was simply the truth. Can't I speak the truth here?"
"It is true that a grandmaster cannot be insulted, but when have I ever insulted a grandmaster?"
"Don't distort the truth, don't be right or wrong, and don't make baseless accusations."
"What a sharp tongue you have! You're still so quick-witted. Your current attitude is disrespectful to the Grandmaster."
Liao Mingyu sneered, then looked at Steward Zhang, "Master Zhang, you are the steward here, so you should decide this matter."
Manager Zhang nodded slightly but did not speak immediately, because he had just secretly released his grandmaster aura at Chen Mo and the other person, but it was blocked.
Moreover, they were countered and suffered a hidden loss.
He knew that Chen Mo and his companion were not ordinary people, and that they were protected by a grandmaster.
This is also a warning.
and so.
We shouldn't take our anger out on Chen Mo and the other person over such a trivial matter.
As the manager of the Gem Tower, he had seen many ups and downs. Although Chen Mo's attitude just now made him somewhat unhappy, he was no longer young and had to consider more things, so he would not act so impulsively.
To be honest, he was just warned.
You must understand, if this trivial matter were to lead to a conflict and a major battle with another grandmaster, then this Gem Tower would cease to exist.
In the end, he was the one who suffered the loss.
After thinking for a while, Steward Zhang slowly spoke.
"Chen Mo's attitude was alright just now. As a customer, he was buying and selling stones at the Gemstone Pavilion and did not break any rules."
"These are minor matters, I won't make a fuss about them."
"The key issue is still between you two. How do you plan to resolve it?"
"Since this happened at my Gem Tower, let's settle it here. What do you all think?"
Liao Ming was also surprised that Manager Zhang did not take offense at his silence, but instead acted as a peacemaker.
next second.
He suddenly realized that Li Mengxue was backed by a master.
They have powerful backers too. If Li Mengqi and the other person are really punished, the master behind them will definitely step in.
In the end, they'll blame him.
He can't afford the consequences.
Although he was a disciple of the renowned appraiser Shi Zhongtian, he could not bear the consequences of offending the master.
Furthermore, he also knew that the master behind Li Mengxue was Li Yuntao, the city lord of Jiangbei City, and that his nephew's family was located in Jiangbei City.
He himself had the protection of Shi Zhongtian, a master appraiser, in Linjiang City, but what about his nephew's family?
If it implicates my nephew's family, then it would be a loss that outweighs the gain.
So he also took a step back and planned to resolve the conflict as soon as possible.
So he stepped forward, cupped his hands, and said to Steward Zhang:
"Master Zhang, our conflict can be easily resolved. Since we are at the Gemstone Pavilion, let's settle this with a stone gambling contest."
"If we lose, we will apologize and help the other party pay for the stones."
"If we win, it's simple, we just need to get them to apologize."
He then looked at Chen Mo and the other man, "Chen Mo, what do you think? Do you agree to this bet?"
