"Heh heh, if you're too scared to do it, just forget about it," Qi Maocai provocatively looked at Zhang Jicheng.
"I'm just afraid you'll lose so badly that you'll accuse us of bullying again," Zhang Jicheng immediately retorted.
"Cut the crap, why don't you set the rules for how we'll compete?" Qi Maocai didn't want to waste more words.
He knew the best way to counter was to let strength do the talking.
As long as his apprentice could easily crush Zhang Jicheng's, that would be far more effective than any war of words.
"Since we're here to look at goods, let's compare our ability to spot the real deal," Zhang Jicheng pointed at the stall, "We'll compete in three rounds: one for calligraphy and paintings, one for jade, and one for porcelain. Best two out of three rounds wins."
Qi Maocai frowned, "Then how do we determine the winner and loser?"
"It's simple: whoever spends the least amount of money to pick up the biggest bargain wins based on their return on investment."
