Chapter 2535: Fooled! Astonishment! Bootlicker! The Tai Family! (2)
“Alright, this sir is straightforward.” The stall owner liked people like him. He smiled and said, “Since you’re interested, I’ll make it cheaper for you. I’ll sell it to you for 80 billion Universe Coins.”
“80 billion UC!” Ti Du furrowed his brow, seeming to think it was a bit expensive.
Grandmaster Hua Yuan and the others were taken aback. The seller had just said it was 60 billion universal coins, but now he was asking for 80 billion.
It had suddenly increased by 20 billion, and he still claimed it was a discount.
This was like treating them as fat sheep to be fleeced!
For a moment, the gazes of Grandmaster Hua Yuan and the others became strange.
They had also recognized Ti Du, who was not on good terms with them. Seeing him being taken advantage of, they couldn’t help but enjoy the show.
But at this moment, Wang Teng suddenly widened his eyes, glaring at the stall owner and shouting angrily, “80 billion universal coins? This sir is a talented young man from the Ti family, with a noble identity and no shortage of money. By offering only 80 billion UC, are you looking down on him?”
Everyone:…
Everyone looked at Wang Teng in astonishment.
Ti Du was utterly confused at first but quickly realized what was going on, and he couldn’t help but feel furious.
Damn, this bastard was trying to trick him!
Le Tun was also speechless. In his eyes, Wang Teng was a martial arts genius, but now, with just a few words from him, that image in his mind collapsed instantly.
Le Yan looked at Wang Teng with a strange expression.
This guy seemed a bit cunning!
“This… grandmaster, you have a point.” The stall owner’s gaze shifted back and forth between Wang Teng and Ti Du, unsure of their relationship. Hesitantly, he said, “How about… I raise the price a bit more?”
Nagin was speechless. He glared at the stall owner and said, “What do you mean by increase? 80 billion UC? it is. Are you going back on your words?”
“Hche, I dare not! I dare not!” The stall owner chuckled awkwardly.
“Truly worthy of being a young master of the Ti family, so generous with his spending. Giving out 80 billion UC just like that is truly admirable,” Wang Teng said with a smile.
Beside him, Gu Luo wore a strange expression. This guy’s heart must be as dark as night, blatantly trying to deceive the other party.
But what made him curious was how Wang Teng could be so certain that the value of this ore was only ten billion UC?
Ti Jing couldn’t help but glare at Ti Du. He had intended to negotiate the price down further, but before he could even speak, Ti Du had agreed impulsively.
A stupid teammate was worse than a god-like enemy.
Finally regaining his composure, Ti Du also glared at Wang Teng, gritting his teeth. “You dare to fool me.”
“I didn’t. Did you see me deceiving you?” Wang Teng looked innocent and asked in return.
“You!” Ti Du felt like he had punched cotton, almost spitting out blood in frustration.
“That’s enough!” Ti Jing immediately intervened, giving Wang Teng a cold look. He said calmly, “This orc is indeed worth 80 billion UC. Let’s see it being extracted. I hope certain individuals won’t let their cleverness backfire.”
Wang Teng smiled faintly and said no more.
“Grandmaster Wang Teng…” Grandmaster Hua Yuan looked at Wang Teng and asked using voice transmission.
“We’ll just watch the show from the sidelines,” Wang Teng grinned mischievously, replying through voice transmission.
Grandmaster Hua Yuan and the others glanced at Ti Du and his companion, suddenly feeling a bit sympathetic towards them.
Unaware of Wang Teng’s thoughts, Ti Du quickly paid up and shot him another fierce glare, saying coldly, “Get an ore extraction expert over here to extract the ore for us.”
“Of course! Of course!” The stall owner was overjoyed to sell his ore for a price far beyond his expectations, and he hurriedly agreed.
On the second floor, there were plenty of experienced ore extraction experts waiting on the sidelines. Whoever needed their services would immediately have someone come over to handle it.
An elderly man in his sixties or seventies walked up and asked, “How would you like me to extract it?”
Ti Du seemed wary after his previous lesson and subconsciously glanced at Ti Jing.
“Let’s start by extracting from the edges first,” Ti Jing furrowed his brow and said after a moment of thought.
The ore extraction expert nodded and immediately began the extraction process. He held a peculiarly shaped ore extraction knife and scraped it along the edge of the ore.
Layers of stone peeled off from the edge of the ore, with thickness and fineness being remarkably uniform, showcasing the expertise of the ore extraction expert.
Ti Du and Ti Jing both fixed their gazes tightly on the cut of the ore, appearing somewhat nervous.
Even for them, the core descendants of the core families of the Secondary Career Alliance headquarters, 80 billion universal coins was not a small sum.
Fortunately, most of the ores here were of high value, so even if they made a loss, it wouldn’t be too much.
That was why they dared to boldly purchase it.
Wang Teng remained calm, wearing an expression as if he was watching a show.
“It seems like Brother Wang Teng doesn’t have much faith in this ore,” Le Yan said, her eyes flashing.
“Not really, I just made a guess.” Wang Teng smiled faintly, offering no further explanation.
Le Yan smiled faintly and didn’t inquire further, knowing that this guy didn’t want to say much.
“It’s out!”
Not long after, a cry of surprise suddenly rang out.
“Oh no, this is bad!”
“I didn’t expect there to be only a few sixth-level energy stones in this huge piece of ore!”
“80 billion UC, buying this ore is probably a huge loss!”
“80 billion, not even able to recoup the investment. Judging from this, getting back over 10 billion universal coins would be considered lucky.”
The expressions of everyone changed as they immediately turned their gaze toward that huge piece of ore…
