Chapter 90 Fellow Daoist, please stay
On the night of the trade fair, Chen Qiang went up the mountain alone.
Xie Cheng and the others do not need to attend the trade fair. As regular visitors to Nanxi Island every year, they naturally have their own channels.
This time, he solved the sea monster crisis and successfully arrived at Nanxi Island. Xie Cheng was full of energy and decided to do a good job and earn huge profits for his family.
At this time, the sky was getting dark, and many monks were speeding towards the peak. Wisps of escaping light emerged, adding a touch of charm to the silent night.
"As expected of a third-grade spiritual peak, this spiritual energy is so abundant."
"If I remember correctly, the place where the Sword Sect's sect is located is only a fourth-grade spiritual vein, which is still buried underground."
Chen Qiang was filled with emotions as he flew upwards.
When we arrived at the top of the peak, there were already monks everywhere, and stalls were everywhere, arranged in rows and rows in an orderly manner. If the lights were brighter, it would feel like a night market in later generations.
Among them, Chen Qiang wandered around casually.
His goal was very clear. The first choice was the sword, and then the healing elixir. He wanted nothing else.
After wandering around for an hour, I have harvested a lot of elixirs, but there are really not many people selling weapons. As for swords, I have never encountered them yet.
"Hey, the swords sold here are quite beautiful!" After searching for a while, Chen Qiang stopped in front of a stall.
"Brother, I'm an expert. I caught my eye at the most expensive item in the old man's stall at a glance!" The boss is an old man with gray hair, wearing coarse linen clothes. He looks more like a country villager than a monk.
His cultivation level is not high, but he has just condensed the golden elixir.
"This sword of yours..." Chen Qiang hesitated for a while, mainly because he speculated that this sword was worth the seventh grade of heaven, but this was the first time he met a sword seller after traveling around for so long, and asked again: "How much is this sword worth?"
"
"Five thousand spiritual stones, no child can be deceived!" After the old man finished speaking, he added: "If it were anyone else, the lowest price for this sword would be ten thousand, but I see that this little brother has fallen in love with me, so since you asked, I
I’ll just quote you the lowest price.”
"hiss!"
After listening, Chen Qiang couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.
This damn one is too expensive!
With such a sword, if you dare to ask for five thousand spiritual stones, are you crazy about money?
"Brother, what's wrong? Is it too expensive?" Seeing Chen Qiang's surprised expression, the old man immediately thought that Chen Qiang couldn't bear it, and hurriedly tried to dissuade him: "Brother, you don't look like a master who is short of money. How about this? I
I’m not going to kill you, but I’ll give you another 20% off, how about four thousand spiritual stones?”
Chen Qiang got no less than 300,000 spiritual stones from the space ring seized by Jiang Pingchang. He must not be short of money, but he is not stupid, how could he let others take advantage of him?
But when he opened the "Record of Famous Swords" and found the sword head of the Du'e Fairy Sword that had been previously included, he found that the patterns on it were exactly the same as those on the candlestick tray!
For a moment, Chen Qiang felt his heart skip a beat and almost asked about the price of the candlestick.
But he knew that facing such a charming boss, he must not show any interest in any product.
Still focusing on the exquisite long sword, after hesitating for a moment, Chen Qiang made a decisive offer.
"One price, five hundred spirit stones, just don't sell it." As soon as he opened his mouth, he cut off the price ten times.
The old man looked in disbelief, and then showed a heartbroken expression, as if Chen Qiang had done something heinous.
"This little... um... fellow Taoist, this... this... this is too much pressure, isn't it?"
"I'll tell you the truth, I spent a thousand spiritual stones to buy this sword. How could I sell it for only 500?"
"Well, fellow Taoist, how about you let me earn some fifteen hundred spirit stones?"
Seeing the old man's confused face and the price that finally came out of his mouth, Chen Qiang almost believed it.
Then he smiled slightly, shook his head, turned around and left without any hesitation.
"Hey, hey, hey... Fellow Taoist, please stay!"
"I admit that I am an old man. I didn't expect to meet an expert. It's time to make a friend. Five hundred spiritual stones, please take this magical weapon!"
Seeing that Chen Qiang was really about to leave, the old man quickly stopped him and pretended to be bold and agreed to the price just now.
"Boss, looking at you, I doubt even five hundred is expensive!" Chen Qiang deliberately said in a provocative tone.
Sure enough, the old man's expression changed slightly, but Chen Qiang did not go into details, but hesitated for a moment and said: "Forget it, I really like the appearance of this sword."
"Let's see, I'll spread out a few items for you and use them as extras. Isn't that too much?"
As he spoke, he squatted in front of the old man's stall, randomly playing with some talismans, jade pieces, etc., including the featureless candlestick. He had the feeling that if you don't agree, I won't leave.
"Yes, yes, fellow Taoist, you can choose three items to take away. This is the first time I have seen a young man who knows how to do business." The old man said with a bitter smile.
Chen Qiang was overjoyed, but his face remained calm. He touched this and that, and finally selected a jade piece, a bottle of elixir, and that candlestick.
Seeing Chen Qiang's choice, the old man couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
So he paid the money with one hand and delivered the goods with the other. Chen Qiang completed his first transaction. With the old man's frown on his face, he left the stall with satisfaction.
When the candlestick was obtained, "The Record of Famous Swords" finally had a slight reaction. Although it was unclear why the reaction was not as strong as before, it always proved that this candlestick was extraordinary.
After Chen Qiang left, the old man immediately changed his face and smiled proudly.
I saw him take out another long sword from the space ring, which was exactly the same as the one he sold to Chen Qiang before!
"Wow, what a beautiful sword."
"Oh, you are an expert, Mr. Xiao Lang, and you fell in love with the most valuable item in the old man's stall at a glance!"
"Hehe, is that right? Then old man, how do you sell this sword?"
"Five thousand pieces of spiritual stone, no kidding! I originally sold it for ten thousand, but seeing how handsome the young man is, I'll give you a half discount."
"Wow, thank you, old man, I bought it."
"..."
Although Chen Qiang saw it from a distance, he had no intention of exposing it. He had gained a lot today and decided to go home.
As for this sword, as expected, it was only one-and-a-half stars and eight-grade quality, adding 5 points to his daily income.
Just as he was about to leave, he heard someone calling him.
"Hey...fellow Taoist, please stay!"
Chen Qiang looked back and realized that the man who wanted to buy the sword was actually a woman, with red lips and white teeth, a good expression, and a very heroic look in men's clothing.
Just the smooth neck and the abruptness of her chest betrayed her in minutes.
However, looking at her unconscious expression, Chen Qiang did not expose it. He just raised his hands and said, "Brother, what advice do you have?"
The woman's face turned bright, and she flashed by and said, "Brother, the old man said, you just bought a sword there. Is it five thousand spiritual stones?"
Chen Qiang was stunned and looked towards the old man's stall. He saw the old man had a bitter look on his face and frequently winked at him as hints.
Obviously, the old man intended to use him as a living advertisement, but he didn't expect that this woman was so social that she actually stopped Chen Qiang and asked.
Chen Qiang smiled slightly, shook his head slowly and said, "No, I bought it for five hundred spirit stones, and also selected three additional items."
Chapter completed!
