Chapter 2305: Heaven Doesn't Drop Pies
ou give me a price now.""Boy, rest assured, I'll give you a fair price."Qin Dongliang kept his word and even bypassed the appraisers, taking a small notebook to evaluate each piece of jade himself.He...Ye Bufan didn't know if the old eunuch could really come up with a million spirit stones, but he knew that once he opened his mouth, it would be difficult to refuse other powerful people who came knocking in the future.
But I'm going to be staying in this imperial city for about two months. It would be beneficial to get on good terms with the chief eunuch, so as not to offend him if possible.
He pondered for a moment and said, "Grand Steward, how about this: two months from now, regardless of whether I find the Five-Colored Mysterious Stone, I will gift your younger brother with a Heaven-Mending Pill. What do you think"
As the chief eunuch, Zhao Huiying was extremely intelligent and immediately understood the key point.
Ye Bufan being able to freely give out pills was already a great face-saving gesture, he naturally understood the need to know when to stop.
Moreover, my younger brother has been blind for so many years and is not in a hurry.
Zhaohuiying said with a smiling face, "Then I'll thank the Immortal Doctor on behalf of my younger brother. In the future, if you have any orders within this imperial city, just send them, and I will do my best!"
After Zhao Huying finished speaking, she took out the jade communication stone. The two of them made a psychic mark between each other, and then, with the royal people, they returned to the palace.
All who were meant to go have gone, and Ye Bufan led everyone into the imperial city of the Tianxing Empire.
It was already noon when everyone entered the city. They first went to a restaurant for a meal and then started strolling through the bustling commercial district.
Most of the people who went to the city gate just now are looking for news about the five-colored mystical stone.
Furthermore, the entire imperial city housed millions of people, with only a very small percentage of those of high status allowed to leave.
So, along the way, I haven't met many people, which has saved me a lot of trouble.
Inside the Tiānxīng Imperial City, stalls and shops of all kinds line the streets, bustling with people coming and going, a scene of great excitement.
It has to be said that the prosperity of cities on the Kunlun Continent and the intensity of spiritual energy are directly proportional.
Compared to the Daxing Imperial City of Tianluo Prefecture, this place is more prosperous, with a larger flow of people and higher prices for goods.
Ye Bufan wanted to find a good storefront to settle down, but he couldn't find a suitable one after looking at it for half a day.
"Brother Ye, it seems there's a shop for sale ahead."
Jiang Fangzhou reached out and pointed forward.
"Let's go take a look."
Ye Bufan led everyone over and sure enough, there was a notice posted at the entrance of the shop. It read "Out for Sale" with a price tag of 20,000 high-grade spirit stones.
"Such a bargain!"
Hu Yaoyao couldn't help but cry out.
They had already visited a dozen or so shops, getting a preliminary understanding of the prices here. They were much more expensive than in the Imperial City of Daxing.
For example, this shop in front of us has five floors. The top three floors are for home use, and the bottom two are shops.
And that's not all, there's also a large courtyard behind it, and a small garden, already comparable to an average mansion.
Compared to the previous price at this scale, it would be at least five hundred thousand high-grade spirit stones, but the notice says only twenty thousand.
Jiang Fangzhou excitedly said: "Yeah, it's so cheap! Big Brother Ye, let's buy it. This time we really made a profit."
Ye Bufan frowned, as an Earthling, he had seen too many scams.
As the saying goes, you can't expect to get something for nothing. If anything were to fall from the sky, it would probably be a heavy iron disc.
This could be said to be the most prosperous district in the imperial city. Such a good storefront, at such a cheap price, if there was no trickery, it would have been snapped up by locals long ago. How could it possibly have fallen to an outsider like himself to purchase it
But he didn't care, for in the face of absolute strength, all demons and ghosts were nothing but clouds.
Just then, a thin middle-aged man walked over with a smile and asked, "Sir, are you here to buy a shop"
"Well, I did have my eye on this shop. It's just the price..."
At this point, Ye Bufan intentionally paused and didn't continue speaking.
When the middle-aged man saw him talking about price, he quickly explained: "This young master need not doubt it. Logically speaking, our shop, even selling 50,000 high-grade spirit stones wouldn't be considered expensive."
But my owner needs the money urgently, so he's selling it at a low price because he doesn't have time to wait any longer.
"Rest assured, our property deeds are complete and there are absolutely no issues."
Ye Bufan sneered in his heart. He wanted to fool himself with such a small trick, it was a million miles away.
Unless you're crazy, no one would ever say something like that out loud.
Since they want to play these little games, might as well play along.
"No, it's not that I think it's too cheap. I think it's too expensive."
I said, "How do you think Who would complain about something being cheap when buying it If I thought it was a good deal, I'd have bought it already. What I mean is, this is too expensive."
"Um..."
Hearing his words, the middle-aged man felt that the speech he had prepared earlier was useless. This was not playing by the rules!
A property worth at least 50,000 high-grade spirit stones was sold for only 20,000, and the other party even said it was too expensive.
But these days, finding a fool from out of town isn't easy. You can't just let them run away.
"Sir, are you new to the Imperial City of our Tiānxīng Empire and unfamiliar with its ways"
Our storefront is spacious and well-located, worth at least 50,000 top-grade spirit stones.
Twenty thousand yuan is really a bargain, you can check around and see for yourself... "
The middle-aged man was gesticulating wildly and vigorously promoting the storefront.
"You can say all you want, but I just think it's too expensive, and I don't have that much money..."
Ye Bufan was very shrewd and tough even as a child. His family was poor, and he could haggle with street vendors to the point of tears. There's no way he would let anyone take advantage of him.
And this middle-aged man, obviously lacking the street vendor's experience, immediately said, "Sir, how much money do you have on you We can discuss a price."
"I only have ten thousand high-grade spirit stones. If you want to sell, fine. If not, that's alright."
"With that, Ye Bufan pretended to turn and leave."
"Wait a minute, I sold it!"
The middle-aged man immediately eagerly agreed, and then sighed, "Our master urgently needs money, otherwise this price would really be a loss."
Ten thousand top-grade spirit stones, Ye Bufan was too lazy to waste words with him, and directly threw a storage ring over.
The middle-aged man checked the number of viewers and was satisfied. He then signed the property deed, completed all the necessary paperwork, and turned to leave, disappearing into the crowd in a blink of an eye.
Those around saw the scene and shook their heads. Some sneered, some pitied, some gloated.
"Another one who got scammed, I don't know where this fool came from…"
"That's exactly what I'm talking about, he really thinks there's a good deal waiting for him. Ten thousand high-grade spirit stones for such a large storefront Did his brain get kicked by a donkey"
"Ten thousand high-grade spirit stones are just gone like that, you really thought you got a good deal..."
People around were whispering to each other, Ye Bufan naturally heard it clearly, a smile couldn't help but appear at the corner of his mouth.
Those who want to cheat me haven't been born yet, just wait! Who cheats who is still uncertain!dy immediately restored to its normal color, from ankle to lower abdomen, and finally to her neck and eyes.Ye Bufan put away the Spirit Refining Bottle, and in his palm appeared a black pill—the Curse...
