Chapter 1039: Buy the Black Stone!

Translator: Lonelytree

Li Fazhi frowned and squatted down as well. He turned the stone over and over again.

After that, he said to Lin Yuelan, ” Sister Lin, based on my many years of experience, this stone isn’t any special. Do you really want to spend this money to buy it? ‘

Lin Yuelan nodded in agreement. Then, she said to the two of them, ” Let’s go! ”

The stall owner was dumbfounded.

Were they leaving just like that?

Didn’t you like this stone very much?

He set such a high price because he was hoping that they would bargain. No matter how much they cut, he could still make a profit. After all, the stones cost nothing.

However, the truth was that these people did not bargain with him at all and left directly.

This time, he was anxious.

He immediately said, ” Hey, don’t go! Believe me, this stone will definitely be profitable for you! I can just tell.”

As expected, Lin Yuelan didn’t leave. Instead, she said with a faint smile, Since you can tell which stone has jade in them, why don’t you open them and get the jades? That way, you can make a bigger profit. Why do you have to sell cheap raw stones? ”

Li Fazhi immediately nodded and echoed, ” That’s right, that’s right! Boss, why don’t you cut open this stone and let us take a look?”

Some of the onlookers immediately laughed out loud.

The stall owner choked and didn’t know how to retort.

His face was flushed red. He was anxious.

Finally, he gritted his teeth and said, ” Miss, I’ll sell this stone to you for thirty taels. How about it? I’ve already lost money!”

Jiang Zhennan immediately snorted and said, “This is just a stone picked up from a stone ditch. Even if you sell it for a penny, you won’t make a loss! ‘ The stall owner was immediately speechless!

Most of the people who set up stalls here picked up the stones from the ground. There was no cost at all.

The small stall owner was on the verge of tears as he said, ” Thirteen taels then! Thirteen taels are really cheap!”

Lin Yuelan didn’t make things difficult for him. She extended three fingers and said, ” Three taels! If you sell it, I’ll buy it. If you don’t sell it, I’ll just leave and go to other places to take a look!”

This time, the stall owner nodded. “I’ll sell! Miss, take this stone now!”

He thought that this person would bargain for three wen, but in the end, she still gave him three taels of silver.

This was not a small sum for ordinary people like them. It could last them two to three months.

Li Fazhi said, ” Sister Lin, isn’t it too much of a loss for you to spend three taels of silver on a stone like this? ”

When the stall owner heard this, he really wanted to cry.

He immediately said, ” Dear customer, there are losses and wins in stone gambling, right? Some people spend a sky-high price to buy a stone, but it might be scrap. But the opposite is possible too.”

Li Fazhi immediately said, ” Alright, we’ll use this one coin to buy this stone. What do you think? ‘

The stall owner was stunned for a moment before he reacted and complained, ‘ Customer, can you stop teasing me? I have an eighty-year-old mother and a child who is crying for food. My entire family lives on my meager income. You only gave me one coin, but the Clear Broth Noodle Soup costs three coins per bowl. This money isn’t even enough to buy half a bowl of Clear Broth Noodle Soup. How can I feed my family? Guest, please be kind and pity me!” He really didn’t want to haggle over the price to the point of a single coin.

Li Fazhi looked at the poor little stall owner and laughed, ” Alright, I won’t push the price lower this time. However, let’s see if you still dare to do this anymore in the future!”

Anyway, three taels of silver was not a lot. They could just take pity on this small stall owner who had been entertained by them.

Moreover, Lin Yuelan seemed to really like this black stone. It was worth it to spend some money to buy it.

In the end, the black stone was bought for three taels of silver.

As for the people who were watching the commotion, their peers were extremely envious of this stall owner.

After all, the man just earned three taels of silver.

Three taels of silver were enough to sustain him for a long time.

However, the passers-by looked at Lin Yuelan and the others as if they were fools. They snorted in their hearts, ‘It’s just a black stone. There’s nothing special about it at first glance, but they actually spent such a high price to buy it. They don’t even know that they’ve been played..’
