“These shopkeepers of Shiyi Zhai not only look down on people with dog eyes, but also eat people without spitting out bones. No matter how valuable something is, it can’t be sold at a good price there!”
“That’s right. Since our Great Chu allows cultivators to set up stalls on the street, we don’t have to suffer this kind of bullying at all.”
Several other vendors beside also chimed in with a hubbub of voices.
“What several big brothers said is right. It’s just that this is the first time for little brother to set up a stall. There are some things I don’t understand. Later, I still ask several big brothers to help out a bit.”
Xu Taiping cupped his hands and thanked several people.
“Easy to say, easy to say!”
Several vendors also smiled and cupped their hands at Xu Taiping.
“Brother, here, I still have a straw mat. I’ll lend it to you today.”
The old cultivator took out a roll of bundled straw mat and put it in front of Xu Taiping.
“Thank you, old sir. But I brought my own bedding.”
Xu Taiping returned the straw mat, and then took out a piece of animal skin from the ring and spread it on the ground.
It’s not that he disliked the straw mat. It’s just that those things of the deep-sea monsters have extremely strong corrosive power. Even the bluestone bricks on the road surface are afraid to be corroded.
Even this piece of animal skin of the Green-Eyed Demon Wolf King can only be used to put things for a while. If it is placed for a long time, it will also be corroded.
“It’s good to bring it yourself.”
The old cultivator laughed heartily and said indifferently.
“Brother, this is not an ordinary animal skin, is it?”
The old cultivator sniffed hard, and then looked at the piece of animal skin spread on the ground by Xu Taiping in surprise.
“Old sir has a good nose. This is the fur of the Green-Eyed Demon Wolf King.”
Xu Taiping smiled at the old monk.
To be precise, this is a small piece cut from that huge wolf skin.
If the entire green-eyed demon wolf king skin were taken out, I’m afraid it could cover all the open space in front of the Shiyi Zhai.
Then, in the astonished eyes of the old monk and the other vendors, Xu Taiping took out a tooth of the green-eyed demon wolf king from the ring and placed it on the ground, and then sat down on the tooth as if it were a chair.
Next, he began to pile up the green-eyed wolf skins stored in the ring one by one on the booth.
The old monk and the other vendors beside them were all dumbfounded.
Although the quality of these skins was far inferior to that of the wolf king’s skin, they were all genuine green-eyed demon wolf skins, and the green-eyed demon wolf was one of the several fierce beasts in the Blood Rain Forest.
More importantly, the number that Xu Taiping placed on the booth at this moment was as many as seven or eight hundred!
And when these demon wolf skins were piled up high, those guests who had originally walked straight to the Shiyi Zhai were also attracted at this time.
“Brother, these furs of yours are from green-eyed wolves, right?”
“Brother, are you selling the wolf tooth under your butt? Name a price.”
“This is the wolf king’s skin, right? Sell it to me, I want it.”
After seeing clearly that what was placed on Xu Taiping’s booth was the wolf skin of the green-eyed wolf, a demonic beast in the Blood Rain Forest, many passers-by immediately started to make offers.
“Everyone, don’t be in a hurry, don’t be in a hurry. My booth has just been set up and hasn’t opened for business yet.”
The enthusiasm of the passers-by made Xu Taiping a bit caught off guard.
After calming down these impatient passers-by, he quickly asked the old cultivator beside him for advice and said:
“Old sir, I haven’t gone down the mountain for many years. Now, what is the market price of the wolf skin of the green-eyed demonic wolf in Southern Chu?”
When he left the capital city seven years ago, he had learned about the market price of some demonic beast furs in the Shiyi Studio, but he remembered that the wolf skin of the green-eyed demonic wolf didn’t seem to be that in short supply at that time.
But the eager eyes of the passers-by in front of him made him feel that something was wrong.
“No wonder you, brother, can be so calm with such a large number of green-eyed demonic wolf furs. It turns out you haven’t gone down the mountain for so long!”
The old cultivator had a sudden realization on his face.
“What does the old sir mean by this?”
After hearing what he said, Xu Taiping’s eyes became even more confused.
“You don’t know, brother. Originally, the fur of the green-eyed demon wolf wasn’t a rare thing. But ever since a great chaos in the Blood Rain Forest seven years ago, and the green-eyed demon wolf disappeared from the Blood Rain Forest, things become precious when they are rare. The fur of the green-eyed demon wolf suddenly became very expensive. It takes three gold essence coins to buy one piece.”
The old cultivator stretched out his hand and gestured to Xu Taiping.
“Seven years ago?”
Hearing this, Xu Taiping was first stunned, and then said in surprise in his heart:
“Could it be that the green-eyed demon wolves were exterminated by me and Little Monk Xuanzhi?”
That time in the Blood Rain Forest, in order to avoid the pursuit of the evil monk Zhenwu, he and Monk Xuanzhi almost killed all the Demonic beast on the periphery of the Blood Rain Forest. Among them were the green-eyed demon wolves.”
“Little brother, are you selling this green-eyed demon wolf fur or not!”
“Yes, just say whether you sell it or not!”
At this time, several passers-by were getting a little impatient.
“Sell! Of course I sell!”
Xu Taiping, who came back to his senses, immediately replied.
“Then brother, you name a price.”
All the passers-by looked at Xu Taiping eagerly.
At this time, not many people noticed this booth. In their opinion, as long as the price is not too outrageous, buying it is earning.”
“How much does the Shiyi Studio sell it to you for?”
Xu Taiping asked the several passers-by.
“A goblin soldier-level green-eyed goblin wolf, three gold essence coins. However, their green-eyed goblin wolf fur coats are all collected from the neighboring Western Liang Kingdom, and the quality is a bit better than yours.”
A passerby tried to bargain the price down.
Xu Taiping thought for a moment, then stretched out two fingers and said:
“Then I’ll charge you two.”
Upon hearing this, the crowd was briefly stunned, and then rushed forward in a swarm——
“Three pieces, I want three pieces.”
“Ten pieces, brother, give me ten pieces.”
“I want thirty pieces.”
In just a short while, the more than eight hundred green-eyed goblin wolf fur coats that Xu Taiping had placed on the booth were snatched up completely.
Xu Taiping looked at the more than one thousand gold essence coins in his hand and was a bit dumbfounded.
Is money so easy to earn?
At the same time.
At this moment on the seventh floor of the Shiyi Studio, after receiving the guests, Shopkeeper Song heard the commotion outside the window and then took a look outside.
When he saw that twenty or so people were gathered in front of a small booth scrambling for something, and then used a communication jade slip to send a message to the shopkeeper on the first floor, saying:
“Shopkeeper Sun, what’s going on at the door? Miss Mu from the Jueming Heaven is about to arrive, don’t cause any trouble.”
