Capítulo 676: Chapter 685: Riding a Cal into the Desert
Upon hearing that Wang Yan actually bought 300 pieces of amber at once, Big Gold Teeth’s eyes widened, and his mouth gaped in shock.
300 pieces of amber cost 9 million; Big Gold Teeth considered himself wealthy, but even all his assets combined weren’t worth 9 million.
This kid, who was flying for the first ti, could actually produce 9 million at once?
Impossible, absolutely impossible!
Big Gold Teeth stared at Wang Yan, his eyes full of disbelief.
The clerk was also startled when Wang Yan said he wanted all 300 pieces of amber.
These 300 pieces of amber were indeed collected by explorers from the desert.
Each of these 300 pieces contained a desert Fire-Eating Ant, making them look unique. Hence, they were priced higher.
Apart from these 300 pieces of amber, the rest were synthetic and fake. That’s why other amber pieces were cheaper, and these 300 were more expensive.
The clerk hadn’t expected these ambers, which had just been placed on the counter, to be sold all at once.
A transaction worth 9 million is indeed a big deal.
The clerk imdiately invited the boss, who was just an ordinary man and had acquired these ambers by luck. On hearing Wang Yan intended to purchase them all, he imdiately treated Wang Yan like the God of Wealth.
He imdiately offered him a seat and served tea, while he, along with seven or eight clerks, surrounded Wang Yan, paying him full attention, whereas Big Gold Teeth was completely ignored as he stood there.
Big Gold Teeth didn’t feel neglected; he was also stunned by Wang Yan’s extravagant purchase, so he just stood there stupidly, waiting to see if Wang Yan was bluffing and could really cough up 9 million.
Soon, the 300 pieces of amber were placed in a bag, which the store owner respectfully brought to Wang Yan.
Wang Yan took the bag, raised his hand, and a card appeared in it, which he handed over to the boss.
This card was given to Wang Yan by San before leaving, and Wang Yan had kept it inside the Starlight Ring.
Wang Yan had no concept of money, and he hadn’t expected this card to co in handy, but it turned out it did this ti.
The boss hurriedly took the card, trembling as he personally walked to the POS machine to swipe it.
After all, 9 million was a fortune for the boss, who had never made such a large profit from his business before.
anwhile, Big Gold Teeth stared at the card in the boss’s hand, repeatedly muttering to himself: it’s not going to go through, it’s not going to go through, he’s a pauper, there’s definitely no money on it, definitely no money.
The boss pressed a few buttons on the POS machine and was about to hand it over to Wang Yan for confirmation when he suddenly stopped midway, saying, “That’s not right.”
Hearing this, Big Gold Teeth burst into laughter, “Hahaha, as expected, insufficient funds. There’s no 9 million in it at all, hahaha—”
At this mont, the boss said, “Sorry, I accidentally pressed an extra zero just now, making it 90 million. I’ll cancel it now, I’ll cancel it.”
Upon hearing these words, Big Gold Teeth’s laughter abruptly stopped, his smile frozen on his face.
He humd angrily, then fell silent at once.
But then, Big Gold Teeth’s eyes widened again, suddenly realizing a terrifying fact.
If the boss accidentally keyed in 90 million, and it didn’t show insufficient funds, it ans this card has at least 90 million, maybe even more.
Is he actually carrying a card with 90 million?
Big Gold Teeth stared at Wang Yan, nearly stunned to the spot.
Soone like Big Gold Teeth, who suddenly ca into wealth, had never seen as much as 90 million.
In fact, Wang Yan’s card contains a whopping 500 million.
If Big Gold Teeth knew about this amount, he’d surely go mad.
Big Gold Teeth stood there for a while, eyes flashing with greed, then turned and left the jewelry store.
Before long, after Wang Yan paid the 9 million, he left with Ouyang Feiting.
The jewelry store owner bobbed his head and bent at the waist, leading Wang Yan out.
Outside the jewelry store, Ouyang Feiting excitedly said to Wang Yan, “Brother Wang Yan, we’re so lucky to have obtained 300 Demon Souls so easily.”
Wang Yan nodded, “Yes, however, good things may turn bad.”
Ouyang Feiting asked with confusion, “Why?”
Wang Yan said, “An ordinary mortal was able to obtain 300 Red Ant Demon Souls, which ans these Red Ants should be quite common in the desert ahead of us.”
“But these ants are very weak, with only low Warrior Tier cultivation. We have nothing to fear.”
Wang Yan said, “I hope I am just overthinking.”
The two continued talking as they walked out of the small town. Just as they reached the outskirts, they heard soone shout, “Rent cals, go into the desert, avoid Fire Ants.”
Wang Yan and Ouyang Feiting looked up and found they had indeed arrived at the edge of the small town, where beyond lay an endless desert.
At this mont, at the edge of the desert, dozens of cals were lying down, and the ones shouting towards the two were the owners of these cals.
It turned out these people were renting cals to tourists.
Wang Yan imdiately approached an honest-looking old man who had spoken earlier, “Excuse , what do you an by avoiding Fire Ants?”
The old man replied, “Visitors like you might not know, but in the desert, there’s a type of red ant we call Fire-Eating Ants. These Fire-Eating Ants are highly venomous, and a single bite can be fatal. Only locals like us know how to avoid them; you should rent a cal, and I’ll take you into the desert.”
Hearing this, Wang Yan and Ouyang Feiting exchanged glances; indeed, these red ants really existed in the desert.
While ordinary people think these Fire Ants are poisonous and lethal with one bite, Wang Yan knew the Fire-Eating Ants weren’t venomous but rather had Warrior Tier realms.
An attack on an ordinary person by Warrior Tier creatures would undoubtedly be deadly.
Nevertheless, Wang Yan had resolved to seek the Heaven and Earth’s Strange Fire, and he wouldn’t back down because of a little ant.
Therefore, Wang Yan said, “Alright, I’ll rent two cals.”
The honest old man was overjoyed, hurrying to fetch the cals.
Then, a rough voice from the side interrupted, “Yang San, these two custors are mine; it’s my turn now.”
Then two fierce-looking n appeared, each holding two cals.
The honest old man trembled with fear upon seeing these two n, took a step back, and said to Wang Yan, “I won’t be doing business with you.”
Ouyang was enraged, “Why bully people like this? I want to ride your cals.”
At this point, Wang Yan spotted Big Gold Teeth behind the fierce-looking n with a sinister smile on his face.
Wang Yan smiled faintly and, pointing to the two fierce-looking n, said, “We’ll ride your cals then.”
