Chapter 423: Forged Contracts

Bao's words revealed a faint killing intent, which made the atmosphere extremely solemn.

Niko stared at Po coldly, and when Chino gave him an order or a look, she would go up and cut Po into a dozen pieces.

Hu Shanrong on the side of Ah Bao was still chewing branches, although his weapon had been unloaded before entering the ruling mansion, but he was still a master of art and bold, and he did not panic at all, he secretly stared at Niko's every move, this little man dared to make trouble, and immediately made her blood splash on the spot!

At this time, the most nervous person is Paladin, Ah Bao is the object of his cooperation, if something happens in the ruling mansion, he will lose his business reputation and not mention it in the future, and his image in Chino's eyes will plummet.

Companion Jun is like Companion Tiger, Chino is not Jun, but he is more dangerous than Companion Tiger by his side, how rich the reward for meritorious service is, how serious the punishment for making mistakes is.

In order to avoid the situation from further deteriorating, Paladin took the initiative to help Ah Bao fill the half-drunk teacup, and his voice was very soft: "Mr. Bao, there may be some misunderstanding here, I think we are..."

"Of course Archon Chino respects me!" Ah Bao suddenly laughed, stretched out his hand and swept over the refreshments in front of him, and then opened his arms to look around, "Look at these exquisite refreshments, and then look at this magnificent and atmospheric living room, give me Ah Bao enough face!" With such a respectful courtesy, what more could I ask for as a guest? ”

The atmosphere was slackened, and the contrast between the front and back made Paladin speechless, not knowing what to say.

Ah Bao pretended to be serious and clasped his fists: "I'm sorry, did I just say something ambiguous that made everyone misunderstand?" If so, please forgive me, I'm a person who likes to joke a lot, and I feel bad all day without joking, hahaha. ”

"Then we might as well get down to business, shall we?" Paladin intervened at the right time, interrupting Po's free play and preventing him from making another moth.

"Okay, let's get down to business." Po coughed lightly, his attitude changed quickly, and his expression became serious, "Archon Chino, I already know the general situation. ”

"Your side has a great demand for natural materials and earth treasures in the northern snow fields, and you need a stable supply of goods. No problem! As long as it is something that exists in this world, whether it is firewood, rice, oil and salt, or natural treasures, there is nothing that I can't get, not to mention that the northern snow field is still my base~"

Chino: "As for the contract, Paladin has negotiated it with you, right?" ”

Ah Bao clapped his hands: "Of course, the contracts have been signed, and the price is very affordable." The first batch of goods departed from the northern snowfields some time ago, and now it should have arrived in the kingdom, and it will arrive the day after tomorrow. ”

This efficiency pleased Chino, and he asked Palatindo, "Is the price normal?" ”

Paladin said, "According to your instructions, I am talking about the average market price. For example, Belling leaves, 10 silver moons per gram. Drunken Dragon Grass, 200 Silver Moons each. Polar Snow Lotus, 3 Golden Moons each..."

"Oh! Whoop! Po suddenly became nervous as he listened, and his eyes widened as he interrupted the conversation between the two, "Paladin! My old friend, what are you doing?! ”

Paladin was stunned: "I'm reporting to the Archon on the price we negotiated, is this something that needs to be kept secret?" ”

Ah Bao said angrily: "Of course, the price does not need to be kept secret. But I don't quite understand, why are you quoting these false prices? ”

Paladin's face changed, and he frowned and asked, "What is a false price?" This is negotiated between the two of us, and the price contract is clearly written! ”

"Oh~ Calm down, my old friend, calm down, you must have misremembered something." Po took out a document from his bag, swiped a little saliva, flipped through the pages, and finally looked at the price list on the last page, shook his head and said, "The price we negotiated is like this-"

"Belling leaves, 100 silver moons per gram, you ordered a pound for the first batch of goods, that is, 500 grams, 50,000 silver moons."

"Drunken Dragon Grass, 2,000 silver moons each, you order 60, I'll give you a discount, just give 100,000 silver moons."

"Polar Snow Lotus, 30 golden moons each, old friend, you set 10 flowers in one go, that is, 300 golden moons."

"Oh~ It is worthy of being the residence of the ruling government, and the wealth is great! Angry! ”

The more Paladin listened, the more numb his scalp became, this number was not right at all! There is no problem with the quantity, but the unit price of each item is 10 times higher than the original agreed price!

Paladin thought that Po was playing some clumsy joke again, and said in a deep voice, "I thought we had already said itβ€”to get down to business." If you're joking, stop immediately. ”

"I'm serious! I'm not a fool, I know very well what occasions I can joke about and what I can't. Ah Bao held the document in his hand, pressed his hands weakly, and said seriously, "Friend, we had a good conversation before, I don't know why you temporarily regretted it." But I can tell you that lying in front of your Archon is definitely not good behavior. ”

Chino stretched out his hand: "Take the contract." ”

"Of course, please take a look." Po happily handed over the contract and introduced, "In quadruplicate, two copies each for me and Paladin, the content is exactly the same, one for the record, and the other for the display." Both caravans have official seals. ”

Chino took the contract and began to flip through it, and Paladin quickly leaned over and looked at the contents intently.

When he saw the price list, Paladin was shocked.

The price list has changed...

It turned out that when he signed the contract with Bao, it was indeed the market price.

But now, the unit price of each product on the price list has an extra 0, which is 10 times the original.

This is clearly tampered with!

Paladin looked at the last page of the contract, as Bao said, the caravan of both sides had official seals, this was not a forged contract, or the original contract, but the previous price had been changed.

This despicable method made Paladin extremely annoyed, and he sneered and said, "I really can't imagine that the Bao caravan would do such a shameless thing?" ”

Ah Bao straightened his face and said solemnly: "Friend, you must be responsible when you speak, otherwise I can sue you for defamation of your reputation." The contract is here, the price is clearly marked, and it was negotiated well at the time, but you don't recognize it now? ”

"The contract is right, okay, you wait." Paladin was not at all bluffed, and turned to leave the meeting room and walked towards the reference room.

Contracts between caravans have always been signed in person, stamped with official seals in person, and retained by both buyers and sellers.

In the event of a dispute, either party can take the contract to the chamber of commerce for mediation, or directly go to the court to sue the other party for breach of contract.

Bao changed the contract on his side, it doesn't matter, Paladin also has a contract on his side, unless Bao has the ability to change the contract on his side, otherwise the content of the two stamped contracts is inconsistent, and the contract is invalid by default, and there is no need to fulfill obligations.

Paladin's contract had always been stored in a box in the data room, where the password was heavily guarded and he alone knew the code, so there was no possibility of theft or tampering.

Now that Po is a scoundrel, then take out the contract and confront him face to face, his means are self-defeating!
