BXBX NOVEL Chapter 3742 Sorry
But now, he was too smart for his own good, and was forced to bid with others. It was simply a trap!
However, now that things had come to this, no matter how much regret he had, it was useless. The most important thing now was to get the star inkstone at all costs. This was his greatest hope for rising up in the future. If he missed it, he might not be able to accomplish anything in this life. Therefore, he definitely could not let this opportunity slip by.
"Shopkeeper, I think you\'d better ask first if this person can take out a thousand spiritual jades. I\'m very suspicious of this!" Yu Zhe glared at Lin Yi with hostility.
The shopkeeper paused and looked at Lin Yi up and down, suspicious as well. After all, Lin Yi\'s ordinary outfit didn\'t seem like someone who could take out a thousand spirit Jade so easily.
Lin Yi smiled and put the bag in front of him, opening it for the two. It was full of high-quality spiritual Jade-he\'d prepared them before entering the inner street.
Yu Zhe was taken aback. He really didn\'t expect that this unassuming and poor rogue cultivator would be able to take out so many spiritual jades so easily!
However, after taking a closer look, Yu Zhe\'s face suddenly had a bit of ridicule, and he sneered,""This bag of spiritual jades looks like it\'s a lot, but there\'s a thousand Yuan in it? Heh, I think it\'s not even half of it. You have the nerve to take it out and embarrass yourself?"
The shopkeeper carefully estimated and nodded.""I estimate that there are about four hundred spiritual jades in this bag. It\'s indeed far from a thousand spiritual jades. Sir, if you can only take out these spiritual jades, I can only apologize to you."
"Hehe ... You have good eyes, manager." Lin Yi smiled faintly.
There were indeed only four hundred pieces of spiritual Jade. Although he still had some in the Jade space, and even had two hundred pieces of spiritual Jade from Chen heihu, some of these spiritual jades were useless jades with insufficient spiritual energy. They were too short to be filled with spiritual energy in the Jade space.
"Since you can\'t afford a thousand spiritual jades, why are you still here? what a waste of time!" Yu Zhe couldn\'t help but let out a sigh of relief when he heard this. He turned to the shopkeeper and said,"If that\'s the case, then I\'ll pay a thousand spirit jades. The star inkstone is mine."
"Indeed," The shopkeeper nodded, a little regretful. He\'d thought that this would be a good situation with two tigers competing for food, and he\'d be able to earn a lot of spirit Jade from it. He didn\'t expect Lin Yi to be a complete bystander, only bringing out four hundred spirit Jade. There wasn\'t any competition at all, and he\'d been overjoyed for nothing.
But just as the manager and Yu Zhe were about to make a deal, Lin Yi suddenly spoke up,"Hold on. What if I add these two foundation building barrier-breaking pills on top of the 400 spiritual jades?"
The two froze at the same time-an ancient-looking box had appeared in Lin Yi\'s hands!
Yu Zhe\'s heart sank. The foundation breakthrough pills were sold in the Hong Chamber of Commerce at four hundred spiritual jade pieces, which meant that the two pills were worth eight hundred spiritual jade pieces. With the four hundred spiritual jade pieces in the bag, Lin Yi\'s bid was equivalent to twelve hundred spiritual jade pieces, far more than his one thousand spiritual jade pieces!
Of course, he didn\'t think that Lin Yi was bragging. The box wasn\'t open, but if there was nothing inside, Lin Yi would be embarrassing himself!
"This customer, what do you say?" The shopkeeper turned his head to look at Yu Zhe.
The meaning was clear-if he couldn\'t go higher, then this one and only star inkstone would go to Lin Yi.
Yu Zhe was silent for a moment before glaring at Lin Yi. He was determined to get the star inkstone, and he wouldn\'t allow anyone to touch it!
However, Lin Yi didn\'t even look at him. In this kind of place, it was always the spirit Jade that spoke. Whoever had more spirit Jade would have the right to speak. It was useless no matter how Yu Zhe glared at him.
"I bid 1200 spiritual jades!" Yu Zhe finally gritted his teeth."The foundation-breaking pill is worth four hundred spiritual jade pieces. But that\'s the selling price. I don\'t think it\'ll be that high if we buy it back, right?"
1,200 pieces of spiritual Jade was already the maximum amount he could borrow. It was impossible to raise even one more piece.
This was because even if people did high-interest loans, they still had to look at the person. If it was obvious that it exceeded the person\'s upper limit of repayment, they would not lend it to you at all. Otherwise, it would be a waste. Even if you killed the other party, you would not be able to recoup your losses.
Although Yu Zhe was an inner sect disciple of the rising Sky Pavilion, his background was far from as deep as Xu lingchong \'s. Usually, he could only borrow a thousand spiritual jades at most. It was already considered a favor to be able to borrow two hundred more spiritual jades. There was no way he could borrow more than that!
However, even though he could only offer one thousand two hundred pieces of spirit Jade, Yu Zhe was still confident that he would be able to win the star inkstone.
Lin Yi\'s 400 spiritual jades and two Foundation breakthrough pills were also worth 1200 spiritual jades in theory, but one shouldn\'t forget that the Hong Chamber of Commerce had set the price for each pill at 400 spiritual Jade.
In other words, to the Hong Chamber of Commerce, the cost price of a foundation building barrier-breaking pill was not even 400 spiritual jades. In their eyes, it was already at its limit to be worth 300 spiritual jades!
So the two Foundation breakthrough pills that Lin Yi took out were only worth six hundred spirit Jade at most in a situation like this. With the addition of four hundred spirit Jade, it was equivalent to the bid of one thousand spirit Jade, naturally not as much as the actual twelve hundred spirit Jade he had!
Actually, from this perspective, Yu Zhe thought that the price of one thousand one hundred spirit Jade was enough to completely overshadow Lin Yi, but he still chose to directly call out the price to the upper limit of what he could afford. In order to ensure that he would get the star inkstone, he was going all out!
As expected, the manager nodded and turned to Lin Yi, "That\'s right. Although the price of the foundation-breaking pill is 400 spiritual jade pieces, if you want to use it as payment, you will have to pay the recycling price. I can only charge you 300 spiritual jade pieces. Two Foundation-breaking pills plus 400 spiritual jade pieces can only be considered as a discount of 1000 spiritual jade pieces."
After a pause, the shopkeeper immediately added,"Of course, if someone else had also offered a thousand spiritual Jade, we would still be biased towards your two Foundation-building barrier-breaking pills. After all, it would save us some trouble in purchasing them. However, now that this guest has offered a thousand and two hundred spiritual Jade, I\'m very sorry." (To be continued.)
