Chapter 43 43: Zhongli doesn’t bargain, he wants them all!
Paimon's voice was not loud, but it brought Zhongli back to his senses.
Is there anything special about these stones?
To be honest, there is nothing special about these stones, they are just ordinary jade.
For Zhongli, these jade stones have no collection value, so he will naturally not buy these "trash products".
However, there is a piece of it that has a little bit of a story to it, which is why it caught Zhongli's attention.
Rocks have memories. It just so happens that Zhongli can understand the memory of rocks. This rock is not as simple as it seems.
Being mixed up in some ordinary jade ore is considered an insult to it.
Zhongli did not answer Paimon's words, but pointed to the stone with a story and said, "Boss, I want this stone. How much does it cost?"
When doing business, if it is a commodity, it will have a price. If the price Zhongli thinks is right, he will not hesitate to buy it.
Of course, under normal circumstances, he has no idea about money, but if he really likes it, he will buy it even at a premium.
If the price is lower than what Zhongli thinks the value is, in Liyue's words, it is considered a leak, and he will not hesitate to buy it.
Buy it and you’ll make a profit!
The shop owner is a middle-aged man in his forties. He has heard of Zhongli for a long time.
Even if he has never seen it, he can still recognize UFOs.
Zhongli was really flattered that he could patronize his shop.
"Your Majesty Zhongli, if Your Majesty likes this stone, just give me a hundred gold soul coins."
The store owner said with a respectful expression. He looked at the piece of "raw jade" that Zhongli pointed at and directly gave a reserve price.
Most of the people who buy raw jade ore are "gamblers". They will bet that the value of the jade in the raw jade ore is greater than the value of buying the raw jade ore.
Also known as gambling stone.
There are losses and gains in betting on stones. Of course, most of the customers will lose money. Otherwise, he may not be able to open his shop.
These raw jade ores have been appraised by "jade masters" and are considered to be of little value.
Only then will it be put up for sale, which can deceive someone...
Pooh!
There are times when the master is mistaken, if you buy it, you will make a profit!
As soon as these words came out, Paimon's eyes widened.
She thought that the store owner said so much and then refused to charge money. She didn't expect that he would also charge 100 gold soul coins.
One hundred gold soul coins per stone. To be honest, the store owner does not make any money, so it is considered the cost price given.
These stones are not iron ore, but jade ore, and their value is naturally not comparable to that of iron ore.
Besides, the value of iron products in Douluo Continent is not very high, and blacksmiths basically have no status.
It's considered low-grade.
"One hundred gold soul coins, so expensive!"
Today's Paimeng is not the Paimeng who just came to Douluo Continent. The purchasing power of the Golden Soul Coin is not the same as that of Mora.
A gold soul coin is enough for an ordinary family of three to live happily for several months.
After hearing this, the store owner spread his hands helplessly and said, "Little Paimon, you don't know something. This is the lowest price I can give."
"Originally, the price of each of these raw jade ores is 110 gold soul coins."
Although these raw jade ores have no value to the store, they still cost a lot of money to purchase.
Selling one piece is equivalent to recovering some costs.
After listening to the store owner's explanation, Paimon nodded thoughtfully: "A full ten gold soul coins seems to be a really good discount."
"Well, we did offer a lot of discounts."
Regardless of whether it sounds like it at first glance, the discount offered by the store owner is relatively large.
In Zhongli's opinion, the value of this stone with a story should range from 100,000 gold soul coins to 500,000 gold soul coins. If someone needs it, let alone 500,000 gold soul coins, even if it is one million or five million, the other party will not frown.
Without hesitation, Zhongli waved his hand, and one hundred gold soul coins appeared on the shop owner's table.
Seeing the gold soul coins, the shop owner smiled happily and quickly counted them. After finding that there were no more and no less, he said to Zhongli: "Your Majesty Zhongli, I wonder if you want to open the stone on site or go back and do it again?"
When it comes to gambling on stones, sooner or later the stones have to be opened, which is why the shop owner asked this question.
"I'll take it away."
This stone is not very big, it is round in shape, about thirty centimeters in diameter.
Now that the money and goods are clear, this stone belongs to Zhongli.
Putting the stone away, Zhongli took Paimon and left the jade shop.
After walking out of the jade shop, Paimeng said to Zhongli with a curious look on his face: "Zhongli, this stone shouldn't be simple, right?"
She knew Zhongli's vision, especially when looking at stones, and she would never make a mistake.
Zhongli doesn't bargain, he wants everything...
But there will be no problem with his vision.
Even if he doesn't bargain, the value of the items he buys will basically not make him lose money.
"Well, this stone is indeed not simple."
"It is different from ordinary stones. It was once a living creature, a living creature, and turned into a stone after death."
"???"
Paimon's mind was filled with questions. If the person who said this was not Zhongli, she would not believe such nonsense.
"Stone?"
"life?"
Zhongli touched his chin and said, "Yes, in Douluo Continent terms, it is a very rare gem-like soul beast."
"This kind of soul beast is not only rare, but it is also exponentially more difficult to hunt. It is actually their natural camouflage, too real."
"Alas~"
Paimon scratched his head. Douluo Continent was really magical. Stones could give birth to life, which was comparable to Teyvat.
"Wait a minute, Zhongli, even if it was a soul beast in life, it is just a stone after all. Can it be worth a hundred gold soul coins?"
Paimon's eyes lit up and she discovered her blind spot.
If a stone becomes a spirit, won't it remain a stone after death?
Take away the soul beast's buff and it's worthless!
“From the perspective of life, it is priceless.”
"The body left behind after it dies is also of little value to humans."
"However, due to Douluo rules, it left a soul bone after its death."
Paimon: "!!!"
Good guy, really good guy!
Paimeng had previously thought that Zhongli’s purchase of this piece this time... was wrong. Was it because the body of this soul beast was once a stone that had become a spirit?
Buy it for the sentiment.
After all, Zhongli is Prince Yan.
I never expected that Zhongli was after the soul bone!
“Its soul bone has not been discovered by others, precisely because its body structure is too closed, completely wrapping the breath of the soul bone.”
"If not, I won't miss it."
"It's useless, but it's a nice collectible."
