"This is one thousand gold coins."
With a face full of confusion and helplessness, Lin Yi took the card worth one thousand gold coins from Ling Yuwei and handed it to the stall owner.
But what surprised Lin Yi was.
The other party did not reach out to take the gold coin card worth a thousand gold coins. Instead, he looked at Lin Yi and then said:
"I just misspoke."
"The ring is two thousand gold coins, not one thousand."
As soon as these words were spoken, Ling Yuwei instantly beca furious:
"Two thousand gold coins? Why don't you go and rob soone."
Bright chuckled coldly after hearing this:
"The item is mine; I can sell it for as much as I want."
"You have the right to choose not to buy."
Saying this, he reached out to Lin Yi:
"Two thousand gold coins, or return the item to ."
Lin Yi watched him with interest:
"Brother, what you're doing is quite unkind."
Lin Yi looked at the damaged ring in his hand and said:
"Usually, you would be lucky to get 100 gold for this piece."
"Now I'm offering a thousand, shouldn't you be satisfied?"
However, Bright wasn't swayed by Lin Yi's words and replied:
"This item indeed isn't worth much to ."
"But to you..."
At this mont, Bright's blue eyes were filled with unwavering confidence and he said:
"I believe it's absolutely worth two thousand gold coins."
Just then, fearing Lin Yi might rashly fall for it, Ling Yuwei quickly said:
"Lin Yi, my dear."
"Don't listen to him."
"This broken magic equipnt, even my Linlang Pavilion would at most value it at 50 gold."
"You..."
Before Ling Yuwei could finish, Lin Yi reached out directly and said:
"Okay!"
"Two thousand it is."
At that mont, not only Ling Yuwei was utterly shocked, even Bright the stall owner was astonished.
No one expected that Lin Yi would agree so readily without even thinking, when he was just trying to test Lin Yi's limit.
That's two thousand gold coins!!
If Lin Yi had offered two thousand at the start, he could have packed all the 'junk' on display then and there.
But now, it's only the price of that single ring.
Did I miss sothing, perhaps the ring hides so unknown secret?
Bright hesitantly eyed the ring in Lin Yi's hand.
Seeing Lin Yi's insistence, Ling Yuwei helplessly extracted another gold coin card and handed it to Lin Yi.
Two thousand gold coins were hardly significant for Ling Yuwei.
But what upset Ling Yuwei was the other party's greedy behavior.
Nevertheless, since Lin Yi liked it.
Ling Yuwei did not wish for any unpleasantness between them over these two thousand gold coins.
Just when Lin Yi thought the matter was settled, Bright, adding fuel to the fire, said:
"Fixed price, three thousand gold coins."
"Give three thousand, and the ring is yours."
Bright's words froze Lin Yi's hand in mid-air.
Upon hearing this, Ling Yuwei suddenly glared angrily:
"This is Jialan Imperial Capital. Are you sure about this?"
As she spoke, a sharp aura suddenly emanated from Ling Yuwei.
Bright's flip-flopping behavior thoroughly infuriated Ling Yuwei.
Under Ling Yuwei's gaze, Bright couldn't help but shiver.
However, under the lure of substantial profit, Bright struggled to swallow, pointing at Ling Yuwei with obvious insecurity:
"You said it yourself."
"This is Jialan Imperial Capital. Don't threaten , I'm telling you."
"Beware, I might go to the City Lord's Mansion and accuse you of causing trouble."
Faced with Bright's repeated price hikes, even the usually calm Lin Yi felt sowhat annoyed:
"It seems you have set your sights on ."
Though Bright was internally intimidated, he remained unmoved and said:
"I said."
"Three thousand gold coins for you to take it, or leave it. It's that simple."
Confronted by Bright's rogue-like manner, Lin Yi frowned deeply.
If Bright had initially asked for three thousand, even ten thousand.
Lin Yi would have taken it without hesitation, without bargaining.
But now it's clear he saw Lin Yi as easy prey.
Lin Yi didn't want to be seen as a juicy target that anyone could exploit.
Soon the commotion attracted countless gazes around them.
However, many among the crowd were drawn by Ling Yuwei's beauty.
Despite being veiled, her exceptional charm couldn't be concealed.
Especially now, agitated by Bright, her heaving chest stirred many fantasies within the minds of n.
Feeling the almost blatant gazes around her, a look of disgust surfaced on Ling Yuwei's face.
But at this mont, a slightly frivolous voice suddenly sounded:
"It's rely three thousand gold coins."
"If this young lady wants it, I'll pay."
Soon a well-dressed man in luxurious attire appeared from the crowd, his face as handso as jade.
As he appeared, exclamations arose from the surroundings:
"Isn't that Charles, the Eldest Prince of Ao Sheng Empire? What's he doing here?"
"Spending three thousand gold coins for a useless piece of equipnt, he certainly lives up to the title of Eldest Prince, so wealthy!"
Upon hearing this, Bright's eyes imdiately lit up:
"Greetings, Your Highness."
But soon, Bright appeared sowhat cautious and humble:
"These three thousand gold coins..."
Obviously, he also understood that this thing was simply 'not worth' that price.
Previously, he opened his mouth wide to Lin Yi because of Lin Yi's ordinary attire, clearly not soone of high status.
Now encountering such a 'big figure' as Charles.
Bright was naturally worried that if Charles bought it and felt deceived later, he would co looking for trouble.
However, Charles calmly handed over a gold coin card valued at three thousand gold coins, saying:
"Spending three thousand gold coins to win the favor of the Linlang Pavilion's young lady is very worth it."
As soon as these words ca out, the surroundings were in an uproar.
Everyone looked with astonished eyes at the stunning woman standing elegantly in the crowd:
"So she is actually the young lady of the Linlang Pavilion."
"I've only heard that the young lady of the Linlang Pavilion is a peerless beauty, and now seeing her, indeed she is."
"Too beautiful."
These words gave Bright quite a scare.
He looked at Ling Yuwei in shock, not expecting this woman to be the young lady of the Linlang Pavilion, with businesses spread throughout the Nine Nether Continent.
After learning Ling Yuwei's true identity, Bright suddenly regretted his earlier rashness a bit.
When Lin Yi produced two thousand gold coins, he should have stopped being greedy.
Now he didn't expect his greed would actually offend the young lady of the Linlang Pavilion.
But he understood.
Now that the offense was complete.
The best plan now was to take these three thousand gold coins and hide far away.
Just as Bright was about to take the gold coin card handed to him by Charles, Charles pulled his hand back:
"Wait a minute!"
Bright was puzzled:
"Your Highness, what is this?"
Charles glanced tauntingly at Lin Yi, then said to Bright:
"Since it's a transaction."
"Naturally, it's one hand for money, one hand for goods. Do you agree, boss?"
Only then did Bright react and turn to Lin Yi:
"Sir."
"Since you are not buying, can you return my item now?"
As Bright finished speaking, all eyes unconsciously focused on Lin Yi.
Looking at Lin Yi's simple attire and unremarkable appearance.
Many people believed that facing Charles, a prince from the Ao Sheng Empire and a leading figure among the younger generation,
any normal person would choose to take the opportunity to walk away, and let the matter end here.
But at this mont, Ling Yuwei suddenly took out a gold coin card of five thousand gold coins and handed it to Bright:
"Here are five thousand gold coins, I'm buying it."
Saying this, she didn't forget to smile slightly at Lin Yi:
"Since Mr. Lin Yi likes this, it represents a little of my goodwill, please do not refuse."
"Wow~"
The people around imdiately widened their eyes, dumbstruck:
'That's five thousand gold coins!!'
'Buying a useless piece of equipnt for five thousand gold coins, I guess only soone like the young lady of the Linlang Pavilion, who isn't short of money, would do that.'
'Who in their right mind would spend five thousand gold coins to buy a useless magic equipnt?'
"Exactly! Five thousand gold coins could already buy so good-quality Third Level magical artifact."
But more people's attention suddenly shifted to Lin Yi:
"Who is this guy? He actually made the young lady of the Linlang Pavilion give him sothing."
At this mont, Bright was even more dumbfounded looking at the five thousand gold coin card in that slender jade hand, hesitating whether to take it.
Charles also looked at Ling Yuwei with a face full of surprise, a hint of displeasure clearly flashing across his face.
Just as Bright wanted to take the bank card from Ling Yuwei's hand, a hand suddenly grabbed Ling Yuwei's white wrist, causing her body to tremble slightly.
Before Ling Yuwei could resist, Lin Yi had already pulled her to his side, saying:
"Trying to take advantage of , huh... "
Then Lin Yi opened his hand in front of Bright, clutching a handful of glimring gold coins.
As the palm opened up, one by one, gold coins fell out of Lin Yi's palm, landing on the booth with a crisp sound.
Under the unbelievable gazes of everyone, Lin Yi said:
"Here are fifty gold coins, take it."
Bright imdiately glared at Lin Yi in anger:
"I won't sell. Return the ring to ."
Facing the enraged Bright, Lin Yi directly turned around intending to leave, not wanting to bother with such a greedy person.
As for reasoning?
That would be a waste of his own ti.
Whether it was seen as arrogance or unreasonable behavior on Lin Yi's part.
Since the other party refused to take two thousand gold coins and chose to repeatedly test his limits.
How could he not let the person get what they wanted?
At this mont, Charles suddenly appeared in front of Lin Yi, stopping the approaching Bright with a gesture.
Charles nonchalantly glanced at Ling Yuwei, whose wrist was still being held by Lin Yi, revealing a hint of shyness in her eyes. He then sneered at Lin Yi:
"Sir, are you planning a forced buy, forced sell?"
Lin Yi at this mont also montarily forgot that he was holding Ling Yuwei's slender jade hand and addressed Charles, who was standing there with a smug face:
"What, are you trying to ddle?"
