The Card Apprentice - Chapter56

The scene was in an uproar, as the bombshell thrown by the Aminia Firm had clearly knocked out that bunch of low-grade card masters who weren't so well-off.

The gazes of the rest of the firm's principals toward Wu Tuan were a mixture of envy and jealousy, since they all knew they were destined to be reduced to supporting roles that day.

The principal of the Victoria Firm, Pei Hang, was also in a terrible mood.

He had a lot more experience than Wu Tuan, and he knew that if you were talking about the level of low-grade card masters, the card masters there were the most professional low-grade card masters.

The card masters in the firm might be able to make higher-grade fantasy cards, but if they wanted to make the most gorgeous, the most dazzling, and the cheapest low-grade fantasy cards, then that was the best choice.

He hadn't thought that Aminia, who had never come there to look for cooperation, would actually run over and offer such a terrifying price. Aminia could be rich and overbearing, but his budget wouldn't allow him to do so.

But to be so forcibly pressed down by his mortal enemy, you could imagine how he was feeling.

He had already decided to wait and personally look for Wang Hao, the director of the low-grade fantasy card club, since they had a pretty good personal relationship, and he could only ask him to help recommend one or two pretty good card masters.

Wang Hao was sitting in a corner of the stage, discussing something with Lan Feng in a low voice.

Just then, Wu Tuan raised his voice on the stage, emphasizing once again, "The best!

We only want the best! "That sentence immediately quieted the gradually clamoring crowd.

Silence, little by little, until it was dead silence.

Wu Tuan on the stage found that the card masters below had all turned their gazes to one person.

Sitting in the very middle was an unprepossessing youth.

Could that youth be the most awesome card master there?

Wu Tuan was a little disappointed, since he didn't want to spend five million to invite some common goods, which would make his chest tight.

Wu Tuan didn't let his disappointment show on his face; on the contrary, he kept his smile on his face, "Is this gentleman the most awesome card master here?"

The way the principals from the other companies looked at Wu Tuan had changed.

That sentence also showed Wu Tuan's style of doing things.

He only cared about results, and would stop at nothing.

He was afraid that the youth wouldn't have it easy!

Wu Tuan's words stirred up who knew how many of the people below were jealous, and he reckoned that some would jump out right away.

Most of these people would be of decent standard.

Then, they could all guess what Wu Tuan would do next.

The huge venue was still silent. No one spoke.

It was indescribably strange to have such an illogical silence on such an occasion.

The gazes of the card masters below the stage were all focused on the youth. What was surprising was that the youth remained calm and unperturbed from beginning to end, without a trace of embarrassment.

A trace of surprise flashed in Pei Hang's eyes. He had never seen this youth before!

He understood the meaning of that silence, which was that all the card masters present had already tacitly agreed with what Wu Tuan had called "the most awesome card master."

No matter what industry it was, those who could be crowned with the title of "best" were all famous experts.

The fact that he was recognized by everyone when he was crowned the "most" was a testament to his ability.

Moreover, from the current situation, this young man had quite a high reputation in this club.

What a pity!

It was a pity that this fellow was going to be recruited by Aminia.

Pei Hang sighed to himself. He had a thin face, a refined temperament, and a pair of eyes that were full of spirit.

Although he was sighing to himself, his face was still wearing a smile that wasn't a smile, with a calm and unperturbed expression.

His gaze fell onto Chen Mu, and he couldn't quite understand how such a young kid could win over so many low-grade card masters.

Wu Tuan reacted quickly, and he immediately understood what that silence and tacit approval meant.

"I wonder if this gentleman would be interested in participating in our program?"

Wu Tuan had enough confidence, simply because no other firm could compete with them, whether in terms of reputation or price.

The Zuo family's signboard was a gold-plated signboard in Eastern Shang-Wei City!

As a trifling low-grade card master, how could he put on any airs in front of the Zuo family?

Looking around at the people in charge of the other firms around him, he was feeling quite refreshed, and his gaze lingered on Pei Hang of the Victoria Firm for a moment.

Pei Hang didn't avoid Wu Tuan's gaze, but rather greeted him with grace.

Under everyone's gaze, Chen Mu slowly stood up, and very bluntly refused, "Me?

Not interested! "

There was an immediate uproar, as Chen Mu's response was beyond everyone's expectations.

Wu Tuan, who had been making eye contact with Pei Hang, was suddenly livid, never having thought that someone would be so insensible!

His situation had suddenly become awkward, and out of the corner of his eye, he seemed to catch a glimpse of a mocking smile at the corner of Pei Hang's mouth.

Damn it!

He was furious, since that damned kid was putting him in a difficult position in front of so many people!

His gaze quickly darkened, and the smile he had been maintaining on his face looked stiff.

But he knew that wasn't the time to flare up, so he forced out a smile, "Don't tell me this gentleman isn't satisfied with our conditions?"

Under everyone's gaze, Chen Mu's expression was calm, and his gaze moved to Pei Hang, and his tone was neither fast nor slow, "Is the Victoria Firm's press conference also in two months?"

Pei Hang was overjoyed, and tried to keep his face calm, but anyone with eyes could see his excitement.

He stood up, "Right!

Our press conference is also in two months. "

He paused to take a look at the livid Wu Tuan, and added, "It's the same day as the Aminia Firm!" Once he said that, Wu Tuan's expression became even uglier.

Pei Hang signaled to Chen Mu with a salute, "I don't know if this gentleman would be willing to accept our firm's commission. Our remuneration wouldn't be considered high, just two million Oudi!"

Chen Mu muttered to himself, and nodded, "I'll accept the commission, but I have a request!"

Request?

Everyone there pricked up their ears, wanting to hear what Chen Mu's so-called request was.

They didn't understand why Chen Mu wouldn't accept a commission worth five million Oudi, but would instead accept a commission worth two million Oudi.

And it wasn't a wise move to offend the Zuo family so openly.

Pei Hang was overjoyed, and rushed to say, "Whatever request the gentleman has, please don't hesitate to mention it!"
