Chapter 2305: Pie in the Sky
Ye Bufan didn't know if the old eunuch genuinely couldn't produce a million Spirit Stones, but he knew that if he opened a loophole, it would be difficult to refuse other powerful individuals who came knocking later.
However, he had to stay in the Royal City for about two months, and it was beneficial to maintain a good relationship with the Grand Chief Eunuch; he would avoid offending him if possible.
He thought for a moment and said, "Chief Eunuch, how about this? In two months, regardless of whether I find the five-colored mystic stone, I will give a Heaven Mending Pill to your younger brother. What do you think?"
As the Grand Chief Eunuch, Zhao Huiying was undoubtedly an extremely intelligent person and immediately understood the key.
Ye Bufan's willingness to give a Medicinal Pill for free already gave him a lot of Face, and he naturally knew when to stop.
Moreover, his younger brother had been blind for so many years, so there was no rush.
Zhao Huiying said with a beaming smile, "Then I, on behalf of my humble brother, thank Medical Immortal. From now on, if you have any commands within this Royal City, feel free to send them. This old servant will do his utmost!"
After Zhao Huiying finished speaking, he took out a communication jade, and the two made a Divine Sense mark between them, then he took the imperial family members back to the palace.
With everyone who needed to leave gone, Ye Bufan also led the group into Tianxing Empire Royal City.
It was already noon. After entering the city, they first found a restaurant for a meal, then began to wander through the bustling streets.
Most of the people who had gone to the city gate to greet them earlier had gone to search for news of the five-colored mystic stone.
Furthermore, the entire Royal City had millions of inhabitants, and only a very small portion of high-ranking individuals had gone out.
So, along the way, not many people recognized them, which saved a lot of trouble.
Inside Tianxing Empire Royal City, various stalls and shops stood in abundance, with people coming and going, creating a lively atmosphere.
It must be said that on the Kunlun Continent, the prosperity of a city is directly proportional to the richness of its Spiritual Qi.
Compared to Daxing Empire Imperial City in Tianluo State, this place was more prosperous, had a larger flow of people, and goods were slightly more expensive.
Ye Bufan wanted to find a good shop to settle down, but after looking for a long time, he couldn't find a suitable one.
"Ye Dage, there seems to be a shop for sale ahead."
Jiang Fangzhou pointed forward.
"Let's go take a look."
Ye Bufan led everyone over and indeed saw a notice posted outside the shop, stating it was for sale, priced at 20,000 High-Grade Spirit Stones.
"So cheap!"
Hu Yaoyao couldn't help but exclaim.
They had already looked at more than a dozen shops, and had a preliminary understanding of shop prices here, which were much more expensive than in Daxing Empire Imperial City.
For example, the shop in front of them had five floors, with the top three for living and the bottom two for the shop.
That wasn't all; there was also a large courtyard and a small garden behind it, which was already comparable to a typical mansion.
Based on this scale and previous prices, it should be worth at least 50,000 High-Grade Spirit Stones, but the notice stated only 20,000.
Jiang Fangzhou excitedly said, "Yes, it's really cheap, Ye Dage, let's buy it! We've really hit the jackpot this time."
Ye Bufan, however, frowned. As an Earthling, he had seen too many scams.
As the saying goes, pies don't fall from the sky; if they do, they're iron pies.
This could be said to be the most prosperous area within the Royal City. Such a good shop at such a cheap price, if there was no trick, it would have been snatched up by locals long ago. How could it be available for an outsider like him to buy?
But he didn't care; in the Face of absolute strength, all tricks were insignificant.
Just then, a thin middle-aged man walked over, asking with a beaming smile, "Young Master, are you looking to buy a shop?"
"Yes, I am interested in this shop, it's just the price…"
At this point, Ye Bufan deliberately paused, not continuing his sentence.
Seeing him mention the price, the middle-aged man quickly explained, "Young Master, there's no need to doubt. Logically speaking, even if we sold this shop for 50,000 High-Grade Spirit Stones, it wouldn't be expensive.
However, my master is in urgent need of money, which is why he's selling it at a low price, as there's no time to wait.
Don't worry, all our property deeds and documents are complete, absolutely no problems."
Ye Bufan sneered inwardly. Did he really think such a small trick could fool him? He was miles off.
Unless one was mentally ill, no one would reveal that they were in urgent need of money.
However, since the other party wanted to play such a small game, he would just play along.
"No, I don't think it's too cheap, I think it's too expensive.
What are you thinking? Who would complain about something being too cheap when buying it? If I really thought it was cheap, I would have paid immediately. I just think yours is too expensive."
"Uh…"
Hearing his words, the middle-aged man felt that all the explanations he had prepared were useless. Why wasn't he following the script?
A property worth at least 50,000 High-Grade Spirit Stones was being sold for 20,000, and the other party still said it was too expensive.
However, in this day and age, finding an outsider fool wasn't easy, so he couldn't let the other party get away no matter what.
"Young Master, have you just arrived at our Tianxing Empire Royal City and are unfamiliar with the situation here?
Our storefront has a large area and a good location, worth at least 50,000 High-Grade Spirit Stones.
Selling it for 20,000 is already very cheap, you can ask around if you don't believe me…"
The middle-aged man spoke with great enthusiasm, vigorously promoting the shop.
"No matter how much you say, it's useless. I just think it's too expensive, and I don't have that much money either…"
When Ye Bufan was young, his family was poor, and he could haggle so much that he could make street vendors cry. How could he let the other party get a bargain?
And this middle-aged man was clearly less experienced than a street vendor, and immediately said, "Young Master, how much money do you have? We can negotiate."
"I only have 10,000 High-Grade Spirit Stones. Take it or leave it."
Saying that, Ye Bufan made a gesture as if he was about to turn and leave.
"Wait a moment, I'll sell it!"
The middle-aged man immediately agreed eagerly, then sighed, "Our master is in urgent need of money, otherwise this price would really be a huge loss."
For 10,000 High-Grade Spirit Stones, Ye Bufan was too lazy to waste words with him and directly tossed a Storage Ring over.
The middle-aged man checked that the amount was correct, then signed the house deed, completed all the procedures, turned around and left, disappearing into the crowd in the blink of an eye.
The surrounding people shook their heads at this scene, some sneering, some pitying, some gloating.
"Another one got scammed. I really don't know where this fool came from…"
"Exactly, he really thought there was a bargain waiting for him. Buying such a large shop for 10,000 High-Grade Spirit Stones, has his brain been kicked by a donkey?"
"10,000 High-Grade Spirit Stones just gone, and he really thinks he got a bargain…"
The people around whispered, and Ye Bufan naturally heard them clearly, a smile playing on the corner of his lips.
Anyone who wants to scam him hasn't even been born yet. Just wait, it's still uncertain who will scam whom!
