Chapter 38: Pie in the Sky
"Uncle, how do you sell this guava?"
Just as Gu Pan was about to leave, he heard someone asking about guava again, and his footsteps involuntarily stopped.
The man didn't get a response from the uncle, and asked again.
When Gu Pan turned around, he happened to see the man take the initiative to squat down in order to let the uncle hear clearly, so that his eyes were level with the uncle. The warm voice fell far away in Gu Pan's ears, like the warm sun on that winter day.
It was the first time she felt warm just hearing someone's voice.
Whether it's in a past life or in this life, this is the first time!
From Gu Pan's point of view, it is enough to see the man's better face, and the whole person also exudes a gentle atmosphere, and his strength deduces what is like his person.
As soon as the old man's voice fell, the people around him gasped.
Even Gu Pan wrote on his face
Gu Pan thought that she was ruthless enough to buy these guavas for two cents a catty, but she didn't expect that this uncle could be even more ruthless!
"Young man, this person is obviously not sincere in business, he sold the previous person for two cents a pound, but it turned out to be five cents a pound to you, you can't be fooled by this."
Before the man could say if he wanted to, some of the onlookers around him made a noise, staring at the man with burning eyes, for fear that he would really buy these guavas from the old man.
Originally, guavas were only sold for two cents a pound, but now they are sold for five cents a piece, this is simply a money grab, this young man is young and inexperienced at first glance, they can't watch him being deceived!
"Yes, yes, this person is not sincere, little brother, you can't be fooled, this guava is not a rare thing, this price is far from worth it, even if you have money, you can't spend this unjust money, right?"
"That's right, the little girl hasn't gone far just now...... Right here, you ask yourself to see if the price is different. ”
The people around were gossiping, and a few sharp-eyed ones pushed back Gu Pan, who was standing and watching the excitement, without even asking.
Not only is there no weight under his hands, but a woman also took the opportunity to twist Gu Pan's hand, which is simply full of malice!
"Are you alright?"
Gu Pan was defenseless, and was pushed and dragged back to the old man by these people, and almost fell, but fortunately he was helped at the last moment.
“......”
Gu Pan stared at the slender fingers on her arm, and the warm voice in her ears did not inadvertently indicate who was holding her.
"Are you alright?"
Seeing Gu Pan standing firmly, Lu Xun couldn't help but let go of his hand, but when he met Gu Pan's sluggish expression, a trace of helplessness flashed on his face.
Gu Pan shook his head and bit his lip unnaturally, as if he was regretting his sudden remorse just now.
How to say that?
Gu Pan only thought that the man's voice was good at first, but now that he took a closer look, he was a human being in two lives, and Gu Pan knew for the first time that she would also look at a person and be stunned.
Lu Xun's facial features are actually not particularly prominent, but after being combined, Gu Pan experienced for the first time what the word gentle and elegant is.
"Thank you just now."
Gu Pan came back to her senses and finally spoke, I don't know if it was her illusion, the man in front of her always gave her a sense of intimacy, but she could be sure that she had never seen this man in her memory.
"You're welcome, you're fine."
Lu Xun smiled, not only Gu Pan felt it, but the people around him were also shocked by his smile like a spring breeze.
"Young man, you ask her, ask her if we lied to you, when she bought it just now, this guava was only two cents a pound, but can it be five cents a pound when she comes to you, isn't it obvious that she wants to cheat your money?"
The uncle next to him was stunned because of Lu Xun's smile, and after a while, he was more excited than just now, and he felt that Lu Xun didn't ask clearly, and Gu Pan wouldn't give up if he didn't say it clearly.
“...... The guava that the old man just sold me was indeed two cents a pound. ”
After Gu Pan finished speaking in a low voice, he glanced at the old men who had been sitting quietly on the side smoking since the beginning when the crowd was hugging, thought about it and said:
"It's a matter of what you want to buy, if it's worth the money, it's good if you think it's worth it, as for the opinions of others, you can refer to it."
Although she also thinks that the price is too high, others may not.
Besides, it's something you and I want to do, and no matter how much they care about it, they're all outsiders, in case someone else needs it urgently, or because a guava can accomplish something else?
You can't waste your time because they can't bear to let him spend a few more cents, or even let him miss something, that's a good intention!
"Thank you for your kindness, but just like this girl said, buying things is something you want me to do, no one can force me, if everyone was worried that I didn't understand the price of the market and was afraid that I would suffer a loss, then now I can tell you with certainty, you can rest assured, I will only buy what I think is worth it!"
Lu Xun smiled and nodded to the people around him, and then looked at the old man.
"Five cents a piece, if you want to buy it, give money, if you don't buy it, please leave, don't delay my business."
The old man took another puff, and the smoke drifted around with the wind, and the choking smell of smoke went straight to his heart.
Gu Pan, like the people around him, did not disperse, but looked at Lu Xun, as if waiting for his answer.
"You misunderstood, I bought it, I want it all."
Lu Xun didn't seem to see that the people around him all turned into disbelief after hearing this, and then stared at him with a mentally retarded look.
How did they know that he never bought these guavas?
"You want them all?"
Something different, not even the tone of voice fluctuated.
"Yes, I bought them all."
Lu Xun nodded, and the foul smile looked up again, but the old man didn't even look at it.
"Really? Now the price has risen, five yuan a piece. ”
The old man's tone was still calm, as if he was not arbitrarily raising the price, but saying that the weather was good today.
"It's okay, I've bought them all." Lu Xun didn't hesitate for a minute.
Looking directly at the old man's gaze, there was no half of hiding, and his eyes were full of openness.
"Are you sure?"
Gu Pan finally saw the old man show a second look.
"Sure." Lu Xun was still smiling, and he didn't take the exclamations of the people around him seriously at all.
"Deal." The old man nodded and spat out two words.
"Come on, get some money!" Lu Xun didn't pay attention to the guava at all, and even paid casually to the people around him.
"Wait!"
Just when Laixi counted how many guavas there were in total and wanted to deliver the money to the old man, the old man was not in a hurry to take it, but said slowly.
