The two people immediately carried out their transaction in private, with Hong Cheng spending 24 pieces of high-grade magnetite to buy Zheng Cao's daikon…
Consequently, Hong Cheng entered State Uncle Zheng's good graces. He did State Uncle Zheng a favor by spending a bit of money to resolve State Uncle Zheng's desperate monetary situation, and they were both very satisfied. After becoming "bosom buddies" on the spot, they started talking more casually.
At present, with 78 pieces of high-grade magnetite on hand, State Uncle Zheng's confidence grew substantially. He raised the bid fairly readily now, and his eyebrows didn't even crease.
When the bid grew to 65 pieces of high-grade magnetite, the elderly nanny clearly hesitated, which made State Uncle Zheng breathe a sigh of relief. At the same time, he shouted with his head held high, "68 pieces of high-grade magnetite!"
