It's actually... actually him?
What kind of favor was this?
Samuel looked at the man in confusion and then looked at Luo Ying'er, who was in the pavilion. For a moment, he wondered what she was doing.
"Nice to meet you, Mr. Hannigan."
It was none other than Gu Chu.
As soon as he arrived at the courtyard, he bowed deeply to Samuel and showed enough respect.
"Your Highness, Sir Gu, what do you mean by this?"
"Actually, I was the one who asked City Lord Luo to arrange this. In order to prevent Mr. Hannigan from getting angry, I had to ask the Princess to step forward..." Gu Chu lowered his head in embarrassment and said.
"Young Master Gu, what are you trying to say?" Samuel asked.
"I know this isn't a good idea, but I still hope that you won't hold a grudge against me for what I said earlier. I'm willing to trade Yellowthaw for it."
"Earlier, I was unwilling to do so and it was indeed a cowardly act. I was worried that others would take advantage of our transaction. If the special envoy were to return in three days, the Gu family would be implicated."
"That's why I refused to have any business dealings with you in front of so many people."
Hearing this, Samuel finally understood. This meant that Gu Chu wanted to do this deal, but he did not want others to know that he had such a relationship with Samuel.
Otherwise, once he was defeated by the envoy, it would be easy for someone with ulterior motives to use it to stab him.
You could say that businessmen were ruthless and knew how to protect themselves at the critical moment. In other words, he was very shrewd and took things one step at a time. In short, he just made a choice that was beneficial to himself.
He looked cold-blooded and shrewd, but if one thought about it carefully, one could understand.
Moreover, Samuel didn't care about all this. What he cared about was getting Yellowthaw!
"Haha, you worry too much. I'm not a businessman, so I won't beat around the bush. I want to make a deal with you, and I've also shown you my goods. So, if you're willing now, there's no problem."
