Chapter 255: Not Selling
Chapter 255: Not Selling
With the support of Shopkeeper Wu, Ma Chao, Qingqing, Erguo and the other two scattered among the gathering to find their desired objects.
Only Haishan, Haoguang and Wu Xianhe stayed where they were, unable to run or move.
Meng Ning glanced at the currency trading rules of Shuanglou Town. He was shocked when he saw them.
It clearly stated that ten taels of silver could be exchanged for one Shuanglou coin. And in this gathering, any item would cost at least dozens of coins.
From this point of view, Wu Xianhe's pain is not difficult to understand. Meng Ning just took a handful of currency from Wu Xianhe, at least a few hundred coins.
After this conversion, what Meng Ning was holding in his hand was not currency at all, but several thousand taels of silver!
Weighing the silver coin in his hand, Meng Ning thanked Wu Xianhe.
"Boss Wu is indeed very generous. I would like to thank Boss Wu for his generosity on behalf of all the members of the Sanzhen Sect."
Hearing Meng Ning's thanks, Wu Xianhe's face looked much better. His face, which had been bloated due to heavy bleeding, also became beaming with joy.
"Master Meng, you are so polite. Some time ago, you avenged my son's murder for me.
Now, you have come to help again in times of crisis. These mere golden and white things are not worth mentioning, not worth mentioning. "
Meng Ning nodded. Although Wu Xianhe felt pain at this moment, he was thinking in his heart, as long as you can help my master Lu Dahai solve the problem.
This amount of money is just a drop in the ocean. No, not even a drop in the ocean.
At that time, the benefits he can obtain will far exceed his current investment.
Meng Ning obviously understood this, so he felt at ease holding the money.
"By the way, don't you want to go shopping?" Meng Ning turned to Haoguang Haishan and asked.
“No, I’ve been to similar gatherings countless times, and there’s nothing good here.
Many of them are not even magic weapons, they are just magical instruments with some power, and their prices are very high.
Be careful when you go shopping, don't get ripped off." Haishan was not in high spirits.
Haoguang was not interested in this. Now he wanted to stay with Haishan and learn more about seekers from him.
Meng Ning had no choice but to wave his hand and wander around.
While strolling around, Meng Ning discovered that what Haishan said was indeed true. The magic weapons sold by those seeking magic here were really not good things, but just some strange and weird things.
For example, there is a strange spherical instrument that makes a chicken cry for no apparent reason, a lens that can only be used to see through oneself, and a comb that makes you bald the more you comb your hair...
You won’t find any good stuff if you shop like this.
Immediately afterwards, Meng Ning closed his eyes and entered a special state of meditation. He wanted to use his powerful spiritual sense to find the item.
Everything around him gradually became quiet in his eyes, only the goods at the gathering became clearer and clearer, and at the same time countless causal threads spread outward from these goods.
Suddenly, Meng Ning noticed that on a stall in the corner, there was an object with countless causal lines spreading in all directions.
The next moment, he walked with his eyes closed, step by step towards the stall, reached out and touched a girl's hand.
Meng Ning suddenly opened his eyes and found himself meeting the eyes of a girl with a surprised look on her face.
The girl looked young, about fifteen or sixteen years old. She was wearing a light blue dress, her long hair was like a waterfall, and her eyes were clear as water.
At this time, she was using a special silk scarf to wipe the many goods on the stall, and the one that Meng Ning valued happened to be the one she was cleaning.
Therefore, Meng Ning, who wanted to take advantage of the situation, happened to touch her little hand.
"Sir, what are you...doing?" The girl asked softly, holding the object in her hand tightly, with a hint of vigilance and curiosity in her tone.
Meng Ning pointed at the object she was holding tightly in her hand, which was an old wooden Zhong Kui mask full of traces of time.
"Boss, I want the mask in your hand. Name a price."
In a corner of the bustling market, the girl breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that Meng Ning only wanted to buy goods and had no ill intentions.
At first she thought this man was some playboy who touched someone's hand right away.
But Meng Ning was quite handsome, which made her heart tremble slightly.
The girl bit her lower lip lightly and looked at Meng Ning's face.
After a while, the girl shook her head gently and said with a faint smile: "Young Master, I'm afraid you have made a mistake.
The object in my hand is not a rare treasure, and there is not even a trace of magical power fluctuation on it.
Not to mention a precious magic weapon, it is not even an intact ordinary magic item. It is just an ordinary wooden mask that can be seen everywhere, unremarkable and even a little tattered.
So, young master, you should look at other objects."
Meng Ning raised his eyebrows slightly and said with a smile: "Haha, young lady, I buy and sell things based on my preferences and fate. I like this mask very much today. I think it must be destined for me. I will offer 10 Shuanglou coins."
Although 10 Shuanglo coins are not expensive, they can be converted into 100 taels of silver, which is more than enough to buy this tattered mask without any magic power fluctuations.
This price is quite generous.
When the girl heard this, her lively eyes could not help but waver a little, but after a moment's hesitation, she still shook her head gently and said softly, "Not for sale."
"100 pieces." Seeing this, Meng Ning raised the price immediately without any hesitation.
100 pieces represent 1000 taels of silver! In this gathering of seekers of the law in Shuanglou Town, not to mention the good magic tools, even the inferior ones are more than enough.
In Meng Ning's eyes, even though the woman selling things at the stall had a good figure and a pretty face, she did not wear many magical weapons or artifacts. This told others that she was not from a wealthy family, otherwise she would not have sold things at a stall in this small town.
As soon as the price was mentioned, the girl bit her lower lip tightly, a trace of struggle flashed across her face, but she quickly responded firmly: "Sorry, I really don't sell it."
Meng Ning's eyes tightened slightly, and then he put all the money in the bag that Wu Xianhe gave him in front of the girl.
"500 Shuanglou coins, no more, no less!"
As soon as the price was announced, the magic seekers who were buying and selling talismans in the surrounding area stopped instantly and gathered towards the girl's stall. They were curious about what kind of magic weapon could make a nobleman like Meng Ning offer 500 Double Building Coins.
However, when their eyes focused on the mask in the girl's hand, their expressions became extremely strange.
Many of the people present were veterans who had been engaged in bargain hunting for many years. Many of them looked at it again and again, but could not see anything special about this Zhong Kui mask.
In everyone's eyes, the mask in the girl's hand is simply a wooden mask carved by an ordinary mortal, although it may be quite old and can be considered an antique.
But it is not a treasure, and the material is very ordinary, so it is definitely not worth such a high price.
However, Meng Ning's bearing and demeanor are extraordinary, and he doesn't look like a fool.
For a moment, no one present was sure of the true origin of the mask.
As one of the two people in the center of attention, the girl's whole body trembled when she heard the number of 500 double-building coins.
There was no other reason. Meng Ning was just too generous. Although he was a seeker of Dharma, he was only a disciple of a small sect.
500 Shuanglou coins, no more, no less, representing several thousand taels of real gold and silver!
This was a huge amount of money that she could not earn in several years or even decades, but now it was right in front of her, and all she had to do was nod.
However, under the watchful eyes of everyone, the girl spoke again after a long time.
"Do not sell!"
