Chapter 234: Sell Them! Sell Them All!
Compared to Yu Xiaogang, Flender still carried himself like a dean. He glared at Tang San, then declared loudly,
"Spirit Bones and such, let's talk about them tomorrow. They're not even in our hands yet. Who knows what functions those three Spirit Bones have?"
"What if none of them are suitable for anyone? Then we'll just have to sell them and split the money."
Hearing Flender's joke, Ning Rongrong's eyes darted around, and she decided to stir up some trouble for Tang San and the others, to see their reactions.
"Dean, you're right! Let's just sell all the Spirit Bones. How good would it be if we split the money? One share for everyone, very fair!"
"It just so happens that my pocket money has been running low recently. Selling the Spirit Bones would help me recover some funds."
After Ning Rongrong finished speaking, Tang San and the others all widened their eyes, looking at this little devil girl in disbelief, as if they had seen a ghost.
Sell them? Are you kidding? These days, everyone is offering high prices to buy Spirit Bones; there's never been a rumor of anyone selling Spirit Bones!
Even if Zhu Zhuqing's group of three used them, it would be more acceptable to them than selling them. After all, even if they got money, their hearts would ache and their hands would tremble.
"Those are all ten-thousand-year Spirit Bones! Wouldn't it be too much of a pity to really sell them to others? Ning Rongrong, you're not short on money, why waste those Spirit Bones for a small profit?"
"Boss Dai is right. Among you three, besides Zhu Zhuqing who has an external Spirit Bone, none of you have one yet. It's better for you to use them yourselves than to sell them!"
Everyone spoke one after another, all wanting Ning Rongrong to abandon this crazy idea.
After all, if the three of them used them, everyone could still grudgingly accept it, at worst, they'd just hypnotize themselves mentally.
If they were sold, they would regret it for the rest of their lives!
Seeing Tang San and the others' anxious expressions, the corners of Ning Rongrong's mouth curved up imperceptibly.
"The three of us don't need these Spirit Bones. Bai Yu has already prepared them for us. We just need to cultivate to Title Douluo, and then directly use Spirit Bones to break through to the Super Douluo realm."
"So, these three Spirit Bones should still be sold. This way, everyone can benefit. How wonderful would that be?"
Tang San and the others' faces were twisted. This was truly awesome; clinging to a powerful backer made them so arrogant that they didn't even care for ten-thousand-year Spirit Bones!
No wonder Zhu Zhuqing's group of three never discussed Spirit Bones. It turns out they didn't need them.
However, if that's the case, then they absolutely cannot be sold. If the three of them don't need them, then wouldn't the ownership of the Spirit Bones be postponed in sequence?
At this moment, Tang San and Dai Mubai were exceptionally firm. No matter what, they had to dispel Ning Rongrong's idea today!
After all, with Zhu Zhuqing's group of three out of the picture, Tang San and Dai Mubai both felt that they were sure to get a Spirit Bone. If they were sold, they would cry in their dreams.
Tang San even wished he could slap himself twice at this moment. Why did he have to bring up Spirit Bones when he had nothing else to do? If he had just kept quiet, wouldn't he have directly inherited them in due course?
"Can't sell! Really can't sell! If we sell them, our Shrek Team will become a laughingstock. People will laugh at us for throwing away the watermelon to pick up sesame seeds!"
"Tang San is right, can't sell! At worst, whoever gets the Spirit Bone will pay money to compensate the others for the difference, which is equivalent to an internal auction for us."
Tang San and Dai Mubai spoke one after another, very quickly. In his haste, Dai Mubai even thought of an internal auction method.
"Zhuqing, what do you think? If you ask me, it's better to just sell them directly. An internal auction would affect everyone's feelings too much."
Ning Rongrong looked at Zhu Zhuqing, asking her, and her tone carried a hint of melancholy, acting as if she was considering everyone.
Hearing Ning Rongrong's words, Tang San and Dai Mubai wished they could grind their teeth to dust, feeling that the term 'little devil girl' had now materialized; this woman was about to grow horns!
Affect feelings? In front of Spirit Bones, how much are mere friendships among classmates worth in gold coins?
However, though they thought this, they couldn't say it aloud, otherwise, they would be ostracized.
Immediately, they all looked at Zhu Zhuqing, their eyes filled with apprehension. After all, strictly speaking, she was the one who contributed the most to Shrek's second-place finish.
Therefore, regarding the ownership of the Spirit Bones, Zhu Zhuqing's share was also the most significant. If she agreed with Ning Rongrong's idea, then they would truly be beyond help.
Zhu Zhuqing found it somewhat amusing. That scoundrel Tang San wanted to use the power of the crowd to make the three of them feel awkward and give up one or two Spirit Bones.
But he didn't expect that they actually didn't want Spirit Bones, and Ning Rongrong seized the opportunity to counter with a checkmate.
As a result, they were now in such a hurry, trying every possible way to save the Spirit Bones from being sold.
"Rongrong, let's just forget about selling them. It really is a bit embarrassing. It's better to do as Dai Mubai said: whoever gets the Spirit Bone should give some compensation to the others."
"As for affecting feelings, there's really no way around that. If there aren't enough Spirit Bones, the person who gets one can only give more in other aspects."
Ning Rongrong pouted, nodding somewhat reluctantly.
Dai Mubai also breathed a sigh of relief. It was good that the Spirit Bones were saved. As for monetary compensation, although he had no real power in Star Luo, he was still the third prince, so a few gold coins were a simple matter.
Tang San, however, was a bit depressed. He was already dirt poor, so where would he get this compensation?
Then Tang San secretly rummaged through his storage belt, and his eyes suddenly lit up. Right, he could sell some Hidden Weapons, and then he would have the money!
Given the ignorant natives on the Douluo Continent, he estimated that selling a few Godly Zhuge Crossbows would be enough to gather the gold coins for compensation.
After figuring it out, Tang San immediately started eating and drinking, quite cheerfully.
In stark contrast were Ma Hongjun and Oscar, as well as a few substitutes.
For them, if Zhu Zhuqing's group of three took the Spirit Bones, they could grudgingly accept it. After all, their contributions were great and their backgrounds deep.
However, when it came to Dai Mubai and Tang San, they were a bit displeased. Dai Mubai was fine; he had always been one of the main forces of the team and had never messed up, so they had no objection to him getting a Spirit Bone.
But how could Tang San, this shifty-eyed fellow who had put the team at a disadvantage several times, also get a Spirit Bone? They couldn't accept it!
But they also had no choice. An internal auction ultimately relied on money, and with their commoner backgrounds, they simply didn't have that capability.
Although they didn't know where Tang San got his money, just by looking at his determined expression, they knew he must have a way.
So, they could only make sour faces and grudgingly accept it.
After a while, when the banquet ended, everyone except Zhu Zhuqing's group of three returned to the resting area in silence.
Compared to their joyous mood when they arrived, it was like night and day. After all, the ownership of these Spirit Bones was enough to keep them awake for several days.
