Chapter 228: Petrified on the Spot (1)
You say she's from a noble background, but she clearly looks like a good-for-nothing, with a sallow complexion and ordinary features. You really can't see the transcendent aura of a hidden clan on her.
You say she's from the common folk, but in the raw materials market, even the captain of the guard came out to stand up for her, and this old geezer treats her with special regard.
So, Liu Chengfeng was conflicted.
"Then let's write a contract," Su Luo said with a smile.
"A contract?" Old Chen glanced at Liu Chengfeng, his cloudy eyes narrowing dangerously, carrying the cold, sharp edge of a drawn sword.
"No, no, no need, no need! What contract do we need? With your guarantee, who would dare to go back on their word? Do they not want to stay in this raw materials market anymore?" Liu Chengfeng waved his hands repeatedly, forcing a smile.
Only then did Old Chen turn his gaze to Su Luo, nodding and saying coldly, "Don't worry, even if you cut out a green crystal, no one would dare to covet it."
A smile appeared in Su Luo's eyes: "With Uncle Chen saying so, I naturally believe it."
Before her voice fell, Su Luo made a gesture as if taking a bag from her wide sleeve and casually tossed it to Liu Chengfeng: "One thousand gold coins, not a single coin more or less. The deal is settled now, right?"
Liu Chengfeng thought Su Luo had bowed down and admitted defeat because of his coercion. He was inwardly smug and extremely happy.
Because of this, all the gold coins he had lost today were earned back.
Liu Chengfeng weighed the full bag of gold coins, looked at Su Luo with a sneer, and waved his hand: "Alright, that piece of waste stone covered in urine is yours now."
Speaking of which, this girl really was a fool. He had only slightly threatened her, and she actually took out a thousand gold coins. It was as if six words were carved on her forehead: "Foolish person, much money, come quickly!"
Liu Chengfeng was overjoyed. He hummed a tune, sat comfortably under the wisteria trellis, crossed his legs, and looked at Su Luo with disdain.
At this moment, Su Luo was practically bursting with joy.
A thousand gold coins! To get this raw stone for just a thousand gold coins was simply the best deal ever. Others didn't understand the Little Divine Dragon's 'ao wu ao wu' sounds, but she did. She had decided early on that she had to get this raw stone no matter what.
Su Luo glanced at Liu Chengfeng, who was still feeling smug. Seeing him looking like he'd gotten a bargain and was showing off, she couldn't help but find it amusing.
Liu Chengfeng isn't leaving, huh? Perfect. Let him see with his own eyes what he missed, and let him regret it until his intestines turn green.
Just as Su Luo was about to start cutting the raw stone, unexpectedly, Old Chen quickly walked up to her, snatched the half-piece of raw stone, and said with a solemn expression: "Girl, how about letting this old man cut the stone for you this time?"
Su Luo felt a little embarrassed: "Uncle Chen, it would be great if you could help me cut the stone, but this raw stone was peed on by this little dog. How could I possibly let you cut it?"
Old Chen gave Su Luo a look that was not quite a smile, lowered his voice, and said slowly, word by word: "To be peed on by the Golden Little Divine Dragon is this raw stone's honor."
Huh? Su Luo was instantly petrified!
This Old Chen… How, how, how could he know that the little dog wasn't a real dog, but a dragon, and even identify it as the most noble royal family of dragons—the Golden Divine Dragon—in one go?
This was simply too terrifying!
Seeing Su Luo's face full of surprise and shock, a faint arc seemed to lift at the corner of Old Chen's mouth. He snorted coldly: "What are you afraid of? This old man doesn't have the time to go around blabbing."
