Chapter 63: It's only worth 10,000
The little guy at the table stared at the old man with some whiskers and glaring eyes in a daze, and at the same time silently cast a kind of approval to the cloaked boy in his heart.
The old man's face turned red at the moment, and his breathing had become rapid, as if he was annoyed by a turbid breath in his chest.
However, whoever encounters such a customer will be angry and have a crooked nose.
Secretly scolded the young man, the old man kept suppressing his anger, and said angrily in his heart: "This kid is pure to find fault, I've endured it enough, why is he still down." ”
However, Qin Tao did not change his mind, he just looked at the old man with the corners of his mouth playfully, and the gaze under the hood was already extremely excited.
When he was young, the old man calmed his anger and showed a wry smile. Looking at the annoying crooked corners of the young man's mouth, he gritted the roots of his teeth fiercely, and seemed to squeeze out a sentence with all his might: "Two thousand gold coins, deal." ”
The stunned little guy looked at his shopkeeper in astonishment, as if he had heard a shocking event, and he was a little overwhelmed for a while.
The corners of Qin Tao's mouth curved out of a satisfied arc, then he put a cloth bag on the table at the door, turned around and said, "This is fifty gold coins, which is considered a deposit, and the remaining three days will be paid to you." After saying that, he walked out of the shop without looking back.
The old man froze in place as if he had eaten a closed door, it was the first time he had seen such a guest in so many years of business, and he was a milky young man.
"Boy, quick, go tell the owner and find out what is the origin of this young man......" The old man's old hand gestured in the air, and his words were already a little stammering.
The little guy next to him hurriedly nodded yes, and immediately ran out of the house as fast as he could.
At sunset, the bustling Danshi Fang gradually became depressed in the afterglow of the sunset, and the endless flow of people also dispersed.
At the door of "Dan Tianxia", Qin Tao tugged on the cloak on his body and made sure that the hood covered half of his face before walking in.
As soon as he entered the door, a pretty-looking maid greeted him warmly, and a pair of watery eyes moved frequently and led Qin Tao to a round table.
The little maid was replaced by a maid, but this seemingly inconsecomparable change made Qin Tao a little suspicious, and his gaze under the hood couldn't help but change.
"Guest officer, do you want to disperse or do you want to present?" Seeing Qin Tao sitting down steadily, the maid asked in a very penetrating and soft voice.
The hood hung low, and the unclear face was completely obscured by the shadow under the cover, and only the word "scatter" floated indifferently in the mysterious darkness.
The maid frowned slightly, pursed her lips without a trace, and then brought a vermilion wooden disc with great swiftness.
There was not a hint of flickering in the brim, as if the owner was already familiar with it. When she was young, the maid saw a white hand stretched out from her cloak, and her slender fingers were pinching a black and red orb.
Gently putting the beads into the bottom of the extremely soft plate, Qin Tao waved his hand casually, turned sideways and picked up the teacup on the table.
Looking at the beast pill that exuded a faint pale white halo on the plate, the maid's eyes couldn't help but become engrossed, and she even forgot what she was about to do.
Seeing the maid standing behind her in a daze, her dark gray hood turned slightly, and a clear cough came from the inside.
The delicate body trembled slightly, and the maid suddenly came back to her senses from her obsession. A crimson flush appeared on her cheeks, and the maid pursed her lips and bowed slightly to the gray back, and hurriedly ran to the back hall with a wooden plate carefully.
Qin Tao stared at the pale cyan tea calmly, and muttered privately in his heart: "How can a sixth-level Wind Shadow Leopard Beast Pill be sold for a good price, it's just a pity......"
When the tea was drunk and the maid didn't come out, Qin Tao frowned, and his fingers tapped on the table in annoyance. The hall has long been empty of individual customers due to the close of the hall, and it seems a little deserted for a while.
He picked up the teacup and wanted to drink it as if he was bored, but Qin Tao found that there was only a shallow bottom left in it, and he couldn't help but be even more bored.
Standing up slowly, stretching out in the wide cloak, Qin Tao straightened his somewhat crooked hood and paced through the hall.
Just when Qin Tao took the hundredth step, the curtain of the back hall was finally lifted, and he saw a short and fat middle-aged man walking out of it.
The man's face was flushed, his belly was poopy, he was dressed in a precious brocade robe, and his soap boots were black and shiny. A faint smile floated on his face, believing some of the fierceness in his gaze.
Standing calmly, the man's smile deepened, and he made a rough voice while arching his hand at Qin Tao: "This guest officer, in Xia Hongsheng, is the shopkeeper of this Dan world. ”
The black projection under the brim of the hat turned slightly, and then shook the hood casually in acquiescence.
In the face of such indifference, anyone would be a little resentful, but Hong Sheng didn't realize it, turned his body sideways and asked with a smile: "I also invite the guest officer to move to the back hall, and there are important matters to discuss below." ”
Qin Tao did not hesitate at all, and naturally took steps in the direction of Hong Sheng's hand.
As early as the moment Hong Sheng appeared, Qin Tao realized that this shopkeeper was just an ordinary person, and the aura on his body was just honed from years of business, so there was no need to worry about anything.
The inner hall is about the size of the main hall, with rosewood tables lining the central aisle and a variety of strange utensils.
"It seems that this is where they usually identify the Beast Pill. Looking at the messy desktop, Qin Tao thought.
At the end of the passage is Hong Sheng's office, although he is the shopkeeper, his room is extremely simple.
Except for the desk and chair for the office and the two rows of bookshelves, Qin Tao didn't see anything extraordinary, let alone some luxury items that added to the luxurious atmosphere.
"Seeing that he is very particular about dressing, I didn't expect the room to be so simple. Qin Tao secretly observed through the thin slit of the brim, and couldn't help muttering in his heart.
The previous maid quickly served two cups of tea, and then bowed to the two of them and quietly walked out of the room.
After the maid left, Hong Sheng picked up the wooden plate on the table and slowly walked to Qin Tao, who was sitting opposite the bookshelf.
Holding the wooden plate cautiously with his thick hands, Hong Sheng held his breath and carefully placed the beast pill on the coffee table beside Qin Tao.
It wasn't until the beast pill was put down that Hong Sheng let out a sigh of relief, and subconsciously wiped his forehead that was slightly sweaty, as if the burden in his heart had finally been put down.
Qin Tao saw this situation clearly, and couldn't help but feel a little speechless.
Hong Sheng's smile deepened again, as if he felt that the black shadow under the hood was becoming more and more beautiful, and there was a slight respect in his rough voice: "This lord, I don't know what kind of price your beast pill wants to disperse?"
The two dusk visits, both of which were dark gray cloaks, and the beast pills that were shot were so precious. In the case of a teenager, he is either assigned by a strong cultivator, or he has a great background behind him and is unwilling to confide. Whatever the possibility, Hong Sheng should be respectful.
Qin Tao's rather indifferent voice came from the dark shadows: "Don't you have a price?"
A sentence that seemed to be a question suddenly made Hong Sheng speechless, thinking in his heart that the cultivator in front of him was really difficult to serve, and at the same time forced a smile and said: "It must be decided, but I am afraid that the adult will think it is inappropriate." ”
"Oh? Qin Tao's words softened slightly.
"Yes. Hong Sheng bowed slightly, turned his gaze to the beast pill on the coffee table, and said: "The sixth-level beast pill belongs to the high-grade beast pill, but because it is a leopard soul beast, the general surname has increased a lot, which affects the price. ”
As he spoke, Hong Sheng kept glancing at the black shadow under the hood, paying close attention to his words and tone, for fear that the word was wrong and angered the adult in front of him.
Hong Sheng's change made Qin Tao a little surprised, he didn't expect that a big shopkeeper would be so afraid of a young cultivator.
"Could it be that he suspects that there is some background behind me?" Qin Tao thought to himself, and the corners of his mouth hidden in the black shadow had risen slightly.
Due to Qin Tao's inadvertent distraction, he didn't hear Hong Sheng's series of nonsense about the price of the beast pill, but only vaguely heard the words "10,000 gold coins" at the end.
"10,000 gold coins, is it really worth so much, how ......" For a while, Qin Tao fell into deep thought.
After some impassioned judgment, Hong Sheng suddenly felt that his mouth was dry, but his heart was very proud. Although looking at Qin Tao's gaze was still respectful, he had already calculated in his heart how much profit this high-grade beast pill would be able to win for him in the future.
After being silent for a long time, Qin Tao suddenly picked up the teacup and drank the tea quietly, ignoring Hongsheng's remarks just now.
Hong Sheng's heart sank, the smile on his face immediately faded a little, and his fat body leaned forward slightly, and asked tentatively, "I wonder if the adults are satisfied with our pricing?"
Putting down the teacup heavily, Qin Tao immediately snorted coldly, picked up the beast pill without any warning and walked out.
This really made Hong Sheng panic, and he hurriedly stepped over and said respectfully: "My lord, please stay, this is just our preliminary pricing, if you are not satisfied, you can negotiate." ”
But Qin Tao ignored him at all, walked out without hesitation, and just said indifferently: "Call the people of Yilan world." ”
Hong Sheng's short and fat body did not have an advantage in speed, and he was still in a state of panic, so he was left far behind by Qin Tao after not taking a few steps.
Looking at the dark gray back in a daze, Hong Sheng frowned, and kept thinking about the words "call the people of the world" in his heart.
When he came out of Dantian, it was already getting dark, Qin Tao held the brim of his hat and glanced at the sunset that was about to sink into darkness, and couldn't help but sigh.
Originally, he wanted to sell the Beast Pill of the Wind Shadow Leopard to buy the dragon chalcedony jade handle, but he never thought that this Dan world was also so black-hearted.
"It's really as black as a crow in the world, and it's really stupid that a guy who doesn't even know the Wind Shadow Leopard is doing some kind of beast pill identification. Secretly scolding in his heart, Qin Tao put down his hood and hurriedly left Danshifang.
When the dark curtain fell at night, Qin Tao found a relatively good inn in one of the most prosperous streets in the city, "Chongshan Lane".
"Ten gold coins a night, this is too expensive, isn't it, Dongdong?" Qin Tao asked as he fiddled with the dishes on the plate with his chopsticks, looking at Dongdong on the side.
But Dongdong is gnawing on a fat chicken roasted brown at the moment, and his mouth has already been stuffed with fat and oily chicken, where can he still have the heart to deal with Qin Tao.
"You little one, you forgot everything when you had something to eat. Qin Tao scolded with a smile and put down the chopsticks in his hand.
"I have to think of a way to make money, otherwise I won't even be able to afford to live in the inn. ”
Looking at the ice crystal ring on the middle finger of his right hand intently, the light blue on the surface of the ring had long since disappeared, and only the simple words were quietly engraved on it.
"I don't know how to revive Grandpa Bing......"
