Chapter 378: Kanto Negotiations ②
Chapter 378: Kanto Negotiations ②
After listening to what Shota said, Uncle Fu was about to continue yelling, but was interrupted by the old woman, so Uncle Fu had no choice but to shut up.
In response to what Shota said, the old woman continued to stir the drink in the delicate teacup with a tiny spoon, and then she spoke:
"Uncle Fu, the tea is cold. Ask someone to pour it out."
Looking at the steaming tea, Uncle Fu understood what he meant and a sinister smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
But just as he was about to leave, he was stopped because Shota said:
"My name is You, you can call me Xiao You, this is my Pokémon Book, which was made by Professor Oak himself."
Looking at the Pokémon illustrated book that Shota handed over, the corners of the old woman's mouth slightly curled up, but quickly hid it.
She was seen stirring the drink in the cup nonchalantly, taking a sip, and then speaking to Uncle Fu:
"Uncle Fu, take a look."
"Yes, master."
After an inspection, Uncle Fu casually threw the elf encyclopedia on the table, then nodded slightly to the old woman and stepped back behind her.
After receiving the message from Uncle Fu, the old woman continued to stir the drink in the exquisite teacup with a tiny spoon, muttering to herself:
"This is a bit difficult, but I can also not give him face."
As she spoke, the old woman took another sip of the hot tea, as if she was lost in thought.
Looking at the old woman in thought, Shota felt the situation was extremely difficult as the stakes of both sides were totally unequal.
Before Shota could figure out what to do next, the old woman stopped stirring the teacup.
Seeing this, Shota felt something was wrong, but soon a savior came to his rescue.
"Grandma, I don't want to stand by and watch anymore. I want to try it too."
Listening to what the outstanding student said, the old woman touched her head lovingly, made a "tsk" sound, and seemed to be in hesitation.
"Grandma~"
Looking at the spoiled girl, the old woman smiled helplessly and then said:
"Then I'll leave this place to you, my precious granddaughter."
As she spoke, the old woman leaned on her cane and a dragon-type energy emanated from her body. As the dragon-type energy from the old woman was released, a Dragonite immediately fell from the sky.
The old woman stepped onto Dragonite's giant claws, and seemed to have thought of something. She turned her head and looked at Uncle Fu who was standing beside her.
Uncle Fu understood what he meant and nodded slightly.
Soon, with a strong wind blowing past, Dragonite disappeared from everyone's sight, holding the old woman in his hand.
Level 98, how deep is the foundation of the Yuto family.
As Shota thought this, his eyes turned to the top student.
Looking at Shota face to face, Youdeng Jiaozi's heart was pounding, but she knew that she couldn't act on impulse and she had to perform very well under the eyes of Uncle Fu.
She took a deep breath, and the temperament of a noble lady quickly condensed on her body, and she began to negotiate with Shota.
As if she had inherited her grandmother's skills and courage, the top girl had the upper hand in the negotiations with Shota. The legitimate arrogance and momentum of the child of a big family seemed to suffocate Shota.
Uncle Fu, who was standing aside, looked at the one-sided negotiation situation and his eyes were filled with tears.
"Miss, you have really grown up!"
Uncle Fu was thinking this in his heart, but the pen in his hand never stopped. He was basically recording the conditions promised by Shota, and these conditions were all beneficial to the Yuto family.
As if he couldn't stand the aggressiveness of the top student, Shota slammed the table with his hand, and with a bang, he stood up.
And just as Shota stood up, Uncle Fu had already stood in front of the proud boy, holding a pistol in his hand, and the red line from the sight was pointing at Shota's heart.
After taking a deep breath and exhaling a few times, Shota seemed to realize his impoliteness. Under the stern gaze of Uncle Fu, he bent down and spoke in a very sincere tone:
"I am so sorry, Miss Excellence, I am so rude."
Having said that, Shota sat down quietly again.
In response to this, the top student simply responded in a condescending tone:
"It's okay, let's continue talking."
Seeing that the atmosphere on the field had calmed down again, Uncle Fu retreated behind the top student and glared at Shota fiercely as a warning.
As the negotiation time progressed, it soon became afternoon.
In the afterglow of the setting sun, the clouds in the sky were reflected red, just like Shota's face.
"Ms. Youdeng Jiaozi, this last condition, which makes us become puppets of your Youteng family, is absolutely impossible!"
In response to Shota's answer, the top student raised a hint of contempt at his lips and said lightly:
"so what?"
"what?"
"So what? If you don't agree to our plan, and the other major alliances and their forces attack Hoenn together, do you think you will still be qualified to sit here and negotiate with me?"
After listening to the words of the top student, Shota seemed to fall into silence.
After a long time, seeing that Shota had no response, Youdeng Jiaozi became very anxious, because at this point, the decision-making power had been given to Shota. If he didn't speak, Uncle Fu standing behind her would take the decision back.
Sure enough, seeing that Shota didn't move, Uncle Fu wanted to step forward and say something, but soon Shota stood up again.
He took a few deep breaths of fresh air and spoke to the top student in an almost pleading tone:
"Can I give you an answer tomorrow? I can't make the decision on this matter alone. I need to discuss this with the higher-ups in the Hoenn region."
After hearing what Shota said, Youdeng Jiaozi and Fu Bo looked at each other.
Then, at Fu Bo's nod, the top student spoke to Shota:
"Okay, but we hope you can give us a quick reply. After all, our Yuto family doesn't want to waste time on something that has already been finalized."
"you!"
Seeing Shota pointing at him, Youdeng Jiaozi curled up his lips into a triumphant smile, then shook his long hair, walked around the rectangular stone table, and left the garden.
On the way to the garden, one can occasionally hear conversations between Uncle Fu and Youdeng Jiaozi.
"Uncle Fu, I think I did a great job, right?"
"Yes, Miss, although you are still a little bit behind the Patriarch, it is already a great improvement."
"Great! I'm going to go to grandma to collect the reward!"
"Run slower, miss, don't fall..."
