When I traveled through time and became a player, I just wanted to commit suicide

The tension gradually spread.

Charles chuckled lightly and patted his sleeves, as if to brush away the pressure Li Shanren had brought to him.

He is not a powerful super being.

Therefore, there is still a certain risk in facing a powerful extraordinary person.

Especially when the other party may use extraordinary means to increase their own leverage.

"Mr. Leathern, I can understand your urgency, but..." Charles knocked on the coffee table with his knuckles, "Can you afford the price? I mean to redeem the five children. .”

"What do you mean?" Li Shanren frowned and looked at Sal who was standing behind the sofa opposite, "I heard him say that to redeem the five children, you have to pay more than five hundred gold ruso, although this price is unreasonable. , but I can still afford it.”

"Mr. Lithern, you have to know that prices depend on people." Charles picked up the cup and bowl on the coffee table and blew the hot air floating on the surface. "Then the price I gave Miss Tifa, To be precise, it’s 546 gold ruso.”

"As long as she can afford the money, I will give her those five children back."

Charles smiled lightly and took a sip of tea.

After hearing this, Li Shanren's eyes darkened slightly.

The other party obviously had something to say.

What does it mean that the price depends on the individual?

Before Li Shanren could ask, Charles put down his tea cup and said calmly: "But for you, I will prescribe..."

He raised his bony palm and slowly raised a finger.

"One thousand gold ruso."

"There are two reasons. First, you and Miss Tifa value those five children equally. Second, compared to Miss Tifa, you can obviously afford a higher price."

Listening to Charles' shameless words, Li Shanren suddenly laughed out loud, "You are really good at watching people order food."

There was sarcasm and hidden anger in his voice.

"Although I don't know the slang you are talking about, I can understand what you mean." Charles smiled lightly and put his crossed hands in front of his knees. "Mr. Lithern, I am a businessman, and I am a businessman who pursues profit." Since I can sell a product at a higher price, why should I sell it at a lower price?"

"Actually, if it weren't for the needs of you and Miss Tifa, the five children without any characteristics together would not be worth a gold ruso in my eyes. It is precisely because of your appearance that I Dare to offer this price.”

"Greed is not a good thing." Li Shanren shot back pointedly.

"I don't think this is greed, this is a reasonable price, Mr. Lithern." Charles smiled, "So, what are your options now?"

He leaned forward slightly, his eyes staring at Li Shanren like torches, like a fly trying to pounce on him and lick him crazily.

Very disgusting look.

"You are a powerful transcendent. You can choose to use violent means to force me to surrender, but I do not recommend you to do so, because it will completely break our relationship, and I will never return those five children. You, or let Miss Tifa redeem me, of course you can try to kill me, but please believe this, for you, this is definitely a choice that will do more harm than good."

"Alternatively, you can choose to pay me a thousand gold ruso to complete this transaction, which will be beneficial to both of us."

"or......"

Charles reached into the lining, took out a piece of light yellow contract paper, and pushed it in front of Li Shanren.

"This is a loan agreement. I can lend you a thousand gold ruso so that you can take those five children back immediately, or even..."

He pointed at the three girls who were still standing nearby.

"The three of them can also be used as gifts for you to take back. What do you think? This agreement will definitely benefit you, but I will suffer more."

After Charles finished speaking, he resumed the posture of crossing his hands with a smile.

However, Li Shanren didn't even look at the contract and said coldly: "I won't sign anything with you."

The contract in this world does not rely on written laws to bind both parties to execute it, but relies on extraordinary power.

Violating a contract or agreement may result in an irreversible curse or an almost fatal backlash.

Legend has it that the highest-level contract will even have the true god serve as a witness. Once violated, you will suffer divine punishment. Therefore, contracts at that level are also called "divine punishment contracts."

The contract Charles took out had God knows what kind of overlord clauses it contained.

All in all, no matter how much the other party brags, it is impossible for Li Shanren to sign.

"You said the same thing to Tifa, right?" Li Shanren asked, staring at Charles.

"Yes." Charles showed regret, "She made the same choice as you, so I heard that she went to the ruins in the west and wanted to quickly raise ransom by exploring the ruins, but I am not optimistic about her, based on my past experience It seems that there may be some unspeakable dangers in that ruins, I hope she can return safely."

"You don't have to be hypocritical. You are just worried that if she dies in the ruins, no one will be able to spend more than 500 gold ruso to redeem the five children." Li Shanren revealed mercilessly, " But now that I have appeared, in your eyes, I am a better candidate than her."

"I have to say that you see it very clearly, Mr. Lithern." Charles clapped his hands. "Faced with some things, Sal is not as clear as you, so I often say that his way of thinking is wrong. Not only do you You are extremely talented in magic, and you get along very well with me. I really hope to cooperate with you on some things."

"However, as things stand now, we still have to complete the deal with each other, don't we? So, what are your options?"

Charles' body leaned forward sharply, his head hanging above the coffee table, as if he was putting his head in front of Li Shanren.

"Do you choose not to trade, take the risk of killing me, and then go find those children who I don't know where I have hidden, or do you choose to spend a thousand gold ruso and reach a happy deal with me, or... ....Sign this contract.”

Li Shanren looked at Charles's smiling face, and this guy was too close.

If at this time, he took out the meteorite staff and swung the Kallia Swift Sword, he could chop off this guy's head in less than two seconds.

Faced with the opponent's straightforward act of giving away his life, Li Shanren tightened his fists hanging under his knees, and finally loosened them slightly.

It is impossible for the other party to dare to make such a dangerous move without any basis.

Li Shanren once used the Kaliya Swift Sword in front of Thrall.

This means that Charles probably knows that he has a magic that attacks extremely fast.

But even so, the other party still stretched his head over.

It seems to be saying, "The great head is here, take it if you can."

And if Li Shanren really takes the risk, there will be two consequences.

First, he succeeded in killing Charles, but because the other party never revealed the whereabouts of the children, Li Shanren may not be able to find the five children in the end. It may even be that because Li Shanren killed Charles, his men will kill the children to vent their anger. .

Second, he failed to kill Charles. The relationship between the two parties broke down and the basis of the transaction was lost. Charles could not return the child. Li Shanren also successfully made a new enemy, which invisibly created a problem for himself in Olin. City operations become more difficult.
