The Amnesiac Black Panther and His Poor Little Beauty (Chapter 37)

The confrontation or fight that Song Ning had anticipated did not occur. The leaders of the different groups simply exchanged a few words in private, and then one of the middle-aged men with glasses, who looked refined, came over to consult with Song Ning.

"Mr. Song, what price are you planning to offer for this batch of coal? Are you interested in offering more?"

At first, Song Ning couldn't understand why these groups of people were so harmonious and sent a representative to talk, but after thinking about it, she realized it wasn't hard to understand.

Although honeycomb briquettes are a rare commodity, everyone is short of supplies in the apocalypse, so every little bit counts.

If these groups of people really raise the price for his small amount of coal, he will definitely make a profit, but these people will definitely lose money.

These groups of people are at least small forces in their own right, so they shouldn't be so brainless.

However, this middle-aged man just claimed to be named 'Tianxiao,' and the others were obviously quite polite to him, so it's estimated that 'Tianxiao' must be quite powerful.

Having figured this out, Song Ning didn't mince words and directly stated that he didn't have much coal, and most importantly, he needed it for heating.

Hearing him say that, these people couldn't help but look somewhat disappointed.

"That's true. These days, it's already good to be able to find honeycomb briquettes. You wouldn't even think you have too many, so why would you have so many extras to exchange for other things?"

"What a pity, I was hoping to exchange more of these good items."

"But no matter what, Mr. Song is going to exchange these things, right? Every little bit helps, Mr. Song. What would you like to exchange them for?"

After going around in circles, they were back to square one: the same groups of people were still interested in Song Ning's coal.

Although it's not much, it's still a good thing, and who wouldn't want to swallow it all?

Song Ning didn't keep anyone in suspense. Aside from the part about replacing the flashlight, he gave a rough estimate of the remaining amount he could trade.

The group of people fell into deep thought.

Song Ning's asking price wasn't high, but as the saying goes, in this apocalyptic world, everything is rare, and exchanging a little means you'll have less of yourself.

They were still hesitating when suddenly Sister Man's voice came from behind.

"I knew I hadn't seen anyone or even Leopard Lord along the way. Turns out you guys were blocking my way."

Her voice drew everyone's attention, and the middle-aged man with glasses saw her and pushed up his slipping glasses with his middle finger.

"What's Captain Man doing here? Is he also here to see Boss Song?"

As soon as he said that, Sister Man knew that she had been seen through.

She laughed and said without any politeness, "Then you must be interested in the good stuff that Boss Song has. What, are you all like that too?"

The middle-aged man with glasses nodded slightly, and Sister Man's smile froze.

Is that really true? Then she seems to have a lot of competitors.

Song Ning hadn't expected that this small amount of coal would attract so many forces, and now it was giving him a bit of a headache.

After all, none of them looked like easy to mess with. He felt that trading with either side would offend others, and trading with all of them would be even more outrageous. Why should this little thing be divided into several equal parts?

There's no need for him to scoop out all ten tons of coal.

Perhaps sensing his hesitation, Sister Man laughed heartily.

"That makes things simple. Since nobody really wants any of it, how about we just have a secret auction? Let's make it clear beforehand that we don't want to raise prices and disrupt the market."

The suggestion was unanimously approved, and Song Ning also learned about the so-called "secret shooting."

The middle-aged man with glasses who had spoken earlier stepped forward first and shook hands with him. Then he gestured a few numbers with his fingers. Song Ning realized that this was a hidden auction.

Next, the others came up to shake his hand and then showed him their prices.

The middle-aged man with glasses undoubtedly offered the highest price, almost double the offer from the base that Sister Man mentioned. It's easy to see that he was indeed very wealthy.

Just as Song Ning was about to make her announcement, she saw Sister Man, who was standing next to her, walk over and extend her hand.

Didn't Sister Man already make an offer?

Before he could even speak, Sister Man quickly shook his hand and then slipped him a note.

Song Ning subconsciously pinched it, hesitated for a moment, and then turned around to take a look at it at Sister Man's prompting. Less than three seconds later, she turned around and decisively announced, "Sister Man and I have reached an agreement on this deal. Thank you to the other bosses for their offers, but it was Sister Man's offer that I couldn't refuse. I hope everyone understands."

When Sister Man heard that she had won, she burst into laughter and patted him on the shoulder.

"That's how the auction rules are. If I win, it's because of my skill. They won't cause you any trouble. Right, everyone?"

The others realized that Sister Man was intentionally supporting Song Ning, and with the black panther staring at them, they all suppressed the tempting thoughts in their hearts, said goodbye, and left.

Only the middle-aged man with glasses remained standing there with his group. He glanced at Song Ning and then at Sister Man, seemingly lost in thought. After a while, he suddenly realized something and sighed softly.

"I forgot this time. The base has something else that can be exchanged. No wonder I couldn't get it even though I offered such a high price."

The woman he mentioned didn't show any change in expression, but Song Ning didn't expect her to try to trick him. The expression he showed in an instant quickly gave her the answer she wanted.

Sister Man couldn't help but click her tongue upon seeing this, "Liang Anlin, you old fox, you've already failed in your bid, what are you still thinking about these trivial things for?"

Liang Anlin pushed up his glasses and lowered his voice slightly.

"It's nothing, I just wanted to confirm whether Captain Man and Boss Song made this deal. If so, I have another business I'd like to discuss with Boss Song."

Upon hearing this, Sister Man showed a hesitant expression.

She roughly guessed what the other party meant. If that was the case, it wouldn't be a bad idea for Song Ning to make a deal with this old fox.

After thinking for a moment, she said, "No matter what you think, I'll settle the deal with Xiao Song first. You can talk to him about your matter later. Xiao Song has his own ideas and will make his own decisions."

After she finished speaking, she waved her hand, and several people behind her came over and carried away all the coal from Song Ning's side.

Before leaving, Sister Man glanced at Song Ning and said, "This guy is quite capable and honest. If you're interested, making a deal with him wouldn't be a bad idea."

Song Ning watched her leave thoughtfully, then looked at Liang Anlin.

The latter spread his hands, "Then I'll take up a little of Mr. Song's time. Let's talk about cooperating on the collapsed underground."
