Chapter 505: 282 You can’t possibly sell this broken hairpin! (Please subscribe! Please vote monthly!)

These street vendors kept challenging his wallet one after another.

Zhou Yi instantly got annoyed.

He had just lost face in front of the girl, and now this raggedy vendor was putting on airs?

Zhou Yi’s family had also dealt with jade business in the past.

Zhou Yi himself had some understanding of jade.

Like this street stall’s White Jade Hairpin.

According to his observation, it was just a piece of junk jade.

It lacked both appearance and quality.

Had the girl not liked it, would he have given this broken hairpin a second glance?

Zhou Yi spoke bluntly, "Just name your price, and I’ll see if I can afford it!"

Zhou Yi claimed he had an RMB 800,000 balance on his debit card. With that amount, he could buy a truckload of these hairpins.

The stall owner looked at the obstinate group of students.

He shook his head and quoted, "Give me two pieces of Vein Essence, and the hairpin is yours."

"Vein Essence? What is that?"

Zhou Yi was taken aback.

You’re selling things in Dragon Country and not accepting RMB?

Which country’s currency is this Vein Essence?

"What is Vein Essence?" Zhou Yi asked again.

Seeing that Zhou Yi was clueless about Vein Essence, the stall owner instantly lost his patience.

"If you don’t know, forget it. Just leave, I can’t sell you the item without Vein Essence."

The stall owner closed his eyes, for he only accepted transactions in Vein Essence.

After all, his hairpin was no ordinary item.

Zhou Yi was completely bewildered.

This was the first time in his life seeing such a bold business approach.

Others always eagerly promote their goods for fear the customer won’t buy, but this guy didn’t care to consider him at all.

Zhou Yi immediately got heated.

He directly offered, "I’ll give you RMB 10,000 for this hairpin. Deal or no deal?"

It was just a hairpin, after all.

Zhou Yi thought that RMB 10,000 was already an overpayment.

Offering such an amount was more than enough to buy this lousy hairpin.

Zhou Yi’s roommates also thought Brother Yi was being very generous!

Spending RMB 10,000 on a hairpin sure showed he had money!

However, the stall owner didn’t even blink at Zhou Yi’s offer.

Zhou Yi looked at the unflustered stall owner.

He clenched his teeth. "RMB 20,000?"

Still no reaction.

"RMB 30,000?"

"RMB 40,000?"

"RMB 100,000!"

...

"RMB 200,000!"

Zhou Yi’s face turned red as the price reached RMB 200,000.

The stall owner didn’t even frown.

When Zhou Yi escalated to RMB 500,000,

The stall owner finally opened his eyes.

But he wasn’t about to sell; instead, he lifted his arm and pointed toward a shopping mall across from the sports stadium.

The stall owner said, "With RMB 500,000, go wholesale some toys at the shopping mall toy store and stop wasting my time. Take a moment to look up the price of Vein Essence online, okay?"

The stall owner had had enough of Zhou Yi’s pestering.

This guy was just too annoying.

He had already said they couldn’t afford the hairpin.

Yet here they were, still droning on.

The stall owner was fed up.

Zhou Yi, upon hearing this, looked sour.

He took out his phone and began searching for this so-called Vein Essence.

He was curious to see how much this Vein Essence actually cost.

Minutes later, when Zhou Yi saw what he found,

His face turned even uglier.

He now realized the Vein Essence mentioned by the stall owner was indeed very valuable.

The overseas market price averaged RMB four billion for a single piece of Vein Essence.

Two pieces would be eight billion.

Moreover, this Vein Essence was a seller’s market.

It would almost instantly sell out whenever available.

It was even more solid than ordinary currency!

Zhou Yi recalled the stall owner’s words about the hairpin costing two pieces of Vein Essence.

That would mean, according to the exchange rate, eight billion?

He dared ask eight billion for this lousy hairpin?

No wonder the vendor was unmoved by his offers.

His asking price was outrageously high!

Zhou Yi couldn’t help but exclaim, "Eight billion, are you trying to rob me? For this hairpin, why on earth is it worth eight billion?"

Zhou Yi’s voice was loud.

Instantly, the ludicrously priced hairpin drew the attention of many bystanders.

The onlookers wanted to see what was going on.

A hairpin worth RMB eight billion?

As more people gathered,

Zhou Yi became even more agitated, "You might as well have grabbed the money directly. Telling me this hairpin with not even a hint of quality is worth eight billion? Who would buy this piece of junk?"

This street vendor was crazy for money.

He wouldn’t dare dream up such a price even in his daydreams!

A lousy hairpin, demanded at eight billion.

It must be robbery.

Watching the commotion Zhou Yi was causing,

The stall owner shook his head, "Friend, just because you can’t afford it doesn’t mean others can’t, can you please not cause trouble?"

Zhou Yi retorted, "Are you dumb or am I dumb? You really think someone would buy this? Today, I really want to see which fool would purchase this thing."

As soon as Zhou Yi finished speaking,

The next second, a chubby man walked over and glanced at the White Jade Hairpin on the stall.

The man expressed a mild surprise.

"Gathering Spirit Hairpin? Good stuff! Brother, how much is this?"

The stall owner looked at the chubby man, rubbing his hands, and said, "Not expensive, two pieces of Vein Essence."

The chubby man pondered for a moment.

"Two pieces of Vein Essence, a bit pricey, but oh well, I’ll take it."

The man gritted his teeth.

Even though Vein Essence was precious,

This hairpin before him was a Gathering Spirit Hairpin,

When worn, it could gather Spiritual Energy, greatly aiding in improving one’s cultivation.

Besides, the hairpin had good quality.

Two pieces of Vein Essence was a fair deal,

And most importantly, this man needed it right now. After buying it, he could let his son wear it for his training which would then become more efficient.

Seeing someone actually buying it at that price,

Zhou Yi was dumbfounded.

Life threw him fast curveballs.

He even suspected that the chubby man might be a plant by the stall owner.

Could this lousy hairpin be worth so much?

Zhou Yi approached and asked the chubby man, "Buddy, have you lost your mind? Really spending money on this lousy hairpin? How can it be worth this much?"

The man glanced back at Zhou Yi.

"Little brother, you’re not from our magical community, so naturally, you don’t understand the value of this hairpin. This is a Magic Artifact! Each Magic Artifact is invaluable, something beyond the comprehension of ordinary people."

"Magic Artifact?" Zhou Yi was clueless.

But even if it was a Magic Artifact, could such a small hairpin be worth eight billion?

Zhou Yi still couldn’t understand.

The chubby man, being good-natured, decided to give Zhou Yi a demonstration on the spot.

He noticed a flower in the roadside bushes that had bloomed and withered.

The chubby man took the White Jade Hairpin over.

In the next second, he inserted the hairpin into the soil.

In about ten seconds or so, Zhou Yi and the many onlookers saw,

The hairpin emitted a faint glow.

After that, a milky white gas from the surroundings was attracted by the hairpin, channeled through the White Jade Hairpin into the underground soil.

The previously wilted and withered flower, just after about ten seconds of the White Jade Hairpin being in the soil, miraculously revived, bursting with vitality and regaining its vibrant color.

Zhou Yi was astounded; his eyes widened in disbelief as he watched the scene.

Zhou Yi exclaimed, "This... bringing the dead back to life?"
