The action of Fang Mu's hidden bid was both pleasing and worrisome to different people.
Those who were happy were the powers that provided the goods for trade.
Once Fang Mu successfully bid on the item they brought, they would have the opportunity to meet him.
On the other hand, those who placed bids for these goods were worried.
If their bid clashed with Fang Mu's and was lower than his, everything would still be fine.
However, if their bid was higher than Fang Mu's and they ended up winning the item Fang Mu was secretly bidding on, they would likely offend him.
This would indeed be more loss than gain.
Seeing that Fang Mu had finished his tour of the trade area, He Kuan, the head of the He family of Ludu, walked straight to him.
When he reached Fang Mu, he did not say much, but greeting him with a smile and then had a brief conversation.
Fang Mu had displayed his enthusiastic hospitality from the beginning of the trade conference.
