The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms

Chapter 771: Chapter 768: Changing the Approach_1

The stall owner was a middle-aged-looking man, but his Cultivation Age was mostly over eighty years old. His strength had reached the Fifth Layer of the True Martial Realm.

He was obviously very surprised that someone would buy the Brass Sand, as there were other treasures on his booth and no one had ever asked the price of Brass Sand before.

But with someone wanting to buy, the stall owner was quite clever. He looked closely at Yang Chen and exclaimed, “You are Yang Chen!”

“It’s me.” Yang Chen nodded.

It seemed that he was really famous now that he could be recognized wherever he went. This made Yang Chen sigh in his heart, as being famous was not a good thing for him.

However, after seeing Yang Chen, the middle-aged stall owner’s eyes cunningly turned and he directly said, “One catty for one Top-grade Spirit Stone!”

Hearing this, Yang Chen blinked his eyes. This stall owner was greedy enough to treat him like a naive and rich master. Brass Sand was indeed rare, but also useless. If he agreed so easily, the stall owner would definitely raise the price for the second catty.

This is how business works. Because he is sure you need this Brass Sand.

Li Ruoxiang couldn’t stand it any longer and scolded loudly, “Are you joking? Selling Brass Sand for one top-grade Spirit Stone per catty?”

The stall owner was also a smart person. He knew that someone wanted to buy Brass Sand, which meant they needed it.

He didn’t give in at all and said, “What do you mean, girl? Brass Sand is very rare. It’s not easy to find. Is selling it for a Top-grade Spirit Stone too much?”

The middle-aged stall owner did not retreat at all, as there were security personnel on the Trading Street, so Li Ruoxiang dared not make a move.

“One catty for one million ordinary Spirit Stones.” Yang Chen said slowly.

Although he didn’t care about these Spirit Stones, he wouldn’t take this loss.

“Not for sale.” The stall owner refused very decisively.

Seeing the stall owner’s refusal, Yang Chen sneered and said, “Sect Leader Li, let’s go!”

Yang Chen never played this game. He would rather not buy than let the other party take advantage of him. However, it was clear that the stall owner wanted to make a fortune, but his determination was lacking.

Seeing that Yang Chen and Li Ruoxiang turned around and wanted to leave, the stall owner immediately became anxious and shouted, “Wait, don’t be so hasty. The price is negotiable, negotiable.”

“So, are you willing to sell?” Yang Chen slowly turned around and asked.

“One catty for seven million Spirit Stones, Brother Yang Chen. That’s the lowest price our small business can offer. Please understand,” the stall owner said cunningly.

Yang Chen spoke forcefully, “Three million!”

“Brother Yang Chen…” The middle-aged stall owner was still insatiable and would not give up.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Two million! If you keep haggling, you can keep this Brass Sand for yourself. The market price for Brass Sand is just over one million. I am already giving you three million, which is fair enough. If you have any issues, I’ll just have to give up on this Brass Sand,” Yang Chen said slowly. “Besides, it’s not that useful to me!”

Hearing this, the middle-aged stall owner felt like crying. Only God knew how quickly Yang Chen changed his mind. It was supposed to sell for three million Spirit Stones per catty. Just because of his greed, the Brass Sand ended up selling for two million ordinary Spirit Stones per catty.

Li Ruoxiang’s lips curled up at the side. She had to admit that although Yang Chen was young, his bargaining skills were impressive.

“How about it?” Yang Chen stared unblinkingly at the middle-aged stall owner, having already overwhelmed him with his momentum.

In the end, the middle-aged stall owner could only grit his teeth. Yang Chen’s intentions were clear: two million, or he would walk away!

Although two million was a small sum, it was better than having the Brass Sand rot in his hands. He regretted his greed, too. Why did he have to be so insatiable?

“Alright, two million ordinary Spirit Stones it is,” the middle-aged stall owner said with a bitter smile.

Yang Chen silently completed the Brass Sand transaction with the middle-aged stall owner.

A total of fourteen catties of Brass Sand were counted into his Storage Bag.

Even before Yang Chen could take out the Spirit Stones, Li Ruoxiang paid the same price for the Spirit Stones and gave them to the middle-aged stall owner.

As the other party said, the Green Lotus Sect would cover all the Spirit Stones, not letting Yang Chen spend a dime.

Although Li Ruoxiang was curious why Yang Chen needed to buy Brass Sand, she didn’t ask.

Being a quiet person, she followed Yang Chen closely as he walked ahead of her.

With the Brass Sand in his possession, Yang Chen couldn’t help feeling excited. From the beginning, he was thrilled to see the Brass Sand, but he hid it well and didn’t show it.

“With these Brass Sands, I don’t know how far the Holy Ants can grow. Since the Holy Ants particularly love this stuff, it means that it is a great tonic for them. However, after all, my ultimate goal here is not these Brass Sands, but finding a way to obtain the talisman materials for the Qimen Scroll.”

Speaking of the materials for creating talismans of the Qimen Scroll, Yang Chen slapped his forehead, feeling very troubled.

Unknowingly, he and Li Ruoxiang had been strolling the Trading Street for a while, but still hadn’t made much progress. They had only found three kinds of materials, which were not enough to solve any problems for Yang Chen, who had a particularly high demand.

“We can’t find the materials we want, so we’ll have to change our approach,” Yang Chen said, standing still.

“What approach?” Li Ruoxiang couldn’t help but ask.

Yang Chen said decisively, “If we can’t find them, we set up a booth and collect them ourselves. Look, the location here is quite good!”

“Setting up a booth?” Li Ruoxiang didn’t know if this method would work.

Yang Chen made a prompt decision and took out a spare table from the Storage Bag before calling out, “Buying Spirit Rhyme Grass, Huang Qi, Bamboo Yun …”

This method of setting up a booth to buy was also a temporary idea by Yang Chen. Everyone else set up booths to sell, and he was the first to use it for purchasing materials.

As to whether it would work, Yang Chen didn’t know.

However, to Yang Chen’s delight, it really did work.

“I have this Spirit Rhyme Grass, what’s the selling price?” Just a cup of tea’s time after, someone came up to ask.

Yang Chen was overjoyed and immediately offered a reasonable price. The person hesitated for a moment, considering the fact that the Spirit Rhyme Grass wasn’t particularly useful to him, and then directly sold it to Yang Chen without saying anything.

That was just the first one. Not long after, Yang Chen purchased two more types of materials.

“This method really works; it looks like my guess was right.” Yang Chen rejoiced in his heart.

The materials he needed were mostly rare, and many people thought they had no selling value, so they naturally wouldn’t sell them at their booths. However, if someone wanted to buy them, that’s another story. It was better for them to sell these materials than to hold onto them without any use.
