Chapter 164 You Can’t Buy Things Even with Money
Entering Qibao Mall, Tang San and Xiao Wu were immediately stunned by the sight in front of them.
There are too many people here!
The last time they came to Qibao Mall, although the number of people was not small, it was only 40% of today's.
“Third brother, look, these people are queuing up at Dugu’s Pharmacy.” Xiao Wu pointed to the shop on the second floor and said.
Tang San felt anxious in his heart.
What if there is real grass jelly mixed into the medicinal materials and bought by others?
"Xiao Wu, you go and line up first, and I'll go take a look." Tang San arranged.
Going up to the second floor and finding a perfect location, Tang San opened the Purple Demon Eyes and looked into the shop.
The store is divided into two parts. One part is no different from an ordinary drug store, and the decoration is not luxurious. The other part is decorated magnificently, and there is also a plaque with five gilded characters of "Dugu's Drug Store".
In the corner of the plaque, Dugubo's name is signed.
Not long after, Tang San saw a face that disgusted him—Prince Snow Star.
As soon as the other party appeared, the guards he brought with him immediately dispersed the surrounding crowd and left him alone to enter the store.
Dugu Bo was not in the drug store, but Dugu Yan was here. She snorted coldly: "Your Highness, are you trying to cause trouble?"
"Dugu niece misunderstood." Prince Snow Star He quickly smiled and said, "I am here to wish the drug store a happy opening."
As he spoke, his guards carried several boxes into the medicine store.
The box contains some medicinal materials and some gold soul coins.
"This king showed me a small courtesy, and I hope Dugu's niece will accept it. One day, I will personally visit Mr. Dugu."
Tang San didn't pay attention to what they said after that.
Due to the appearance of Prince Snow Star, the team just now has been broken up.
Tang San pulled Xiao Wu and squeezed to the front of the crowd. When the queue re-forms, they will be able to enter the pharmacy earlier.
Others’ eyes were attracted by Prince Snow Star, and they did not notice anyone jumping in line.
......
After about a stick of incense, Tang San and Xiao Wu successfully entered the store.
The simple decoration here sells some low- to mid-level medicinal materials, which ordinary people can afford.
The ones on the other side are all high-end medicinal materials, and the price of each plant is more than 300 gold soul coins.
“The quality of these medicinal materials is actually so good.” Tang San was astonished.
As someone who was familiar with medicinal materials, he couldn't help but be shocked by the quality of these medicinal materials.
Dugu Yan noticed him, but he was a visitor. She had no reason to chase him away, so she arranged for a shopping guide to receive him.
"Sir, what medicinal materials do you need? In addition to the ones at the counter, we sell almost all the medicinal materials you can name here. However, the quota of some medicinal materials has been used up this month. If you want To buy, you can only pay a deposit in advance and wait to pick up the goods next month," the shopping guide said politely.
Tang San didn't speak in a hurry and glanced around the containers.
If possible, he would even want to pack all these medicinal materials.
Unfortunately, his personal financial resources are not enough, and he cannot spend the borrowed gold soul coins at will.
Under the shop plaque, there was a medicinal plant framed in a glazed box. Tang San pointed at it and asked: "How many gold soul coins are the medicinal materials in that glazed box worth?"
The shopping guide said apologetically: "Sorry sir, this is the treasure of the store that Dugu Mian personally ordered, and it is not for sale to the outside world."
The glazed box contained a perfect-looking Immortal Grass.
The grade of this herb is vaguely close to the category of Immortal Grass, and its quality is much higher than the Immortal Grass that Tang San obtained in Thunder Canyon before.
Next, no matter how hard Tang San tried, the shopping guide never let go. In desperation, Tang San checked the list of pre-sold medicinal materials. The only herb I like has been sold out, but it is still available for pre-sale every six months. Right now, even if Tang Sanneng paid the deposit, it would take two years before he could get the medicinal materials.
"Don't you have any other inventory? I can increase the price!" Tang San said with a dark face.
The shopping guide looked at his performance and couldn't help but admire Dugu Bo in his heart. "Dugu Mian's sales strategy is still good. People don't get what they ask for. The price won't be the same after two years."
Once you pay a deposit, you will only have priority to purchase when the goods become available. However, the value of medicinal materials is still determined according to market fluctuations.
After wrangling for a long time, Tang San finally failed to buy what he wanted. On the contrary, it was Xiao Wu who took a fancy to a high-level medicinal plant with a hidden aura.
I don’t know if it was a coincidence or not, but the herb she bought originally grew near Acacia Heartbroken Red.
Nurtured by the aura of the King of Immortal Grass, this herb's ability to conceal its aura has been greatly enhanced.
There is no limit to this medicinal material, and it can be bought for five hundred gold soul coins.
......
Leaving Qibao Mall, Xiao Wu waved his fist angrily, "I'm so angry, I still won't sell it even if I give you money!"
Tang San was also the first I realized for the first time that money can’t buy anything.
Of course, he also seems to understand that only things that cannot be bought can make people cherish them more. At the same time, it also makes it easier for stores to raise prices.
"It's okay Xiao Wu, we have already absorbed the Immortal Grass, and there is no shortage of that one." Tang San comforted himself.
"I think this Dugu Bo is a profiteer. He is worse than the dean! It's clear that he just wants to rip us off." Xiao Wu cursed a few words.
Tang San's view is not so one-sided.
High-end medicinal materials are in limited supply, but ordinary people cannot afford them, and only nobles will fight for them.
Medium and low-end medicinal materials are all supplied in unlimited quantities, and the prices are not set high.
He could finally see that Dugu Bo didn't take advantage of ordinary people, but only took advantage of nobles.
Unknowingly, the two of them had arrived at the building of Tiandou Auction House.
Tang San thought for a moment and decided to sell four mechanical hidden weapons.
These four kinds of concealed weapons have safety devices inside. Once an outsider takes them apart, the concealed weapons will be damaged. Moreover, the arrows loaded are disposable, and there is no way to replenish them after they are used up.
In this way, the leakage of hidden weapons can be avoided to a large extent.
Just like in the original time and space, Tang San and Xiao Wu successfully entered the auction house by auctioning items.
On the white banquet, I saw Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin.
Ning Fengzhi finally pocketed all four of his hidden weapons.
"That girl is weird." Chen Xin said with a frown.
The ninety-seventh level titled Douluo's perception is so keen, he felt an unusual aura from Xiao Wu.
"Uncle Jian, did you see it wrong?" Ning Fengzhi asked subconsciously.
During the auction just now, Xiao Wu had already revealed that they would consign the hidden weapon.
Ning Fengzhi admired Tang San's talent. Although he didn't know his identity, his heart already aroused the desire to win over him.
Chen Xin was a little unclear, "Her aura doesn't look like that of a normal person. She should have a treasure that conceals her aura. I can't feel her details."
Chen Xin didn't see her. Having experienced a real transformed soul beast and a thing that shielded the aura, he couldn't describe Xiao Wu's strangeness in detail for a while.
"If you can't think of it, forget it. This thing is exquisitely made. Send it to Rongrong later. In addition, send someone to find out their identities."
