The seed trader had specially visited the black market organizer's house last night, even bringing along a dish and half a bottle of wine. He thought that he could negotiate better while sharing drinks. However, to his surprise, the organizer did not touch the wine. After hearing the seed trader out, he was promptly shown the door.
The seed trader had initially believed the deal was off. He had hoped to gain favor with the organizer, hoping for a better position in the black market in the future. But the organizer wasn't swayed, even kicking him out – utterly humiliating.
Yet, to the seed trader's astonishment, the organizer sent someone the next morning, instructing him to bring the seed buyer to his house so they could discuss face-to-face.
