"Uh... sort of," Chen Yu thought for a moment and shamelessly admitted.
After all, having already presented the Fruit of Life, it was natural to be presumed a person from planet Ganon.
"You're all familiar with the Fruit of Life," Chen Yu continued. "If possible, please appraise it."
The Sains alien negotiating with Chen Yu seemed a bit excited, but quickly suppressed it.
After all, showing too much enthusiasm in business might lead to being taken advantage of by the other party.
"Customer, the price of the Fruit of Life at the intergalactic exchange convention is well-recognized. If not converted into tokens at the interstellar bank, its actual value can be higher," the Sains alien responded. "Each Fruit of Life can be valued at eighty million tokens."
Chen Yu was surprised upon hearing the Sains alien's words.
Although he knew the Fruit of Life was valuable, he hadn't expected it to be worth so much!
Eighty million tokens! Considering the spaceship was priced at five hundred million tokens, at most six Fruits of Life could secure it!
"Eighty million is too low," despite feeling excited, Chen Yu still haggled, "One Fruit of Life should be one hundred and twenty million tokens."
"Customer, that won't do," the Sains alien's expression changed slightly, countering, "Your valuation is too high... How about ninety million per fruit?"
"One hundred and ten million, I can't go any lower."
Chen Yu shook his head, maintaining a calm demeanor.
"Customer... I can't make that decision," the Sains alien said, sensing Chen Yu's calmness and feeling somewhat eager.
"Alright then, I'll check other shops. Goodbye."
With that, Chen Yu made to leave the Sains alien's shop.
The Sains alien watched Chen Yu step away, lips pressed tightly together, unmoved.
He knew giving in first, especially if the other party was merely feigning departure, would mean his loss.
But... the Fruit of Life was so tempting!
One fruit meant a hundred years of life!
Sains aliens looked similar to Ganon's residents, bearing no difference from humans on Earth.
The biggest difference between the two planets was Ganon's lack of technological development, whereas Sains' technology was advancing rapidly.
Since Ganon's inhabitants didn't worry about lifespan, Sains aliens, with an average lifespan of only one hundred and fifty years, were compelled to enhance their technological level to stand in the universe.
Given the substantial population on Sains and the few Fruits of Life entering Sains at the intergalactic exchange convention annually, the Fruit of Life was indeed crucial for Sains.
"Customer, wait!" After hesitating for a moment, the Sains alien clenched his fist in decision, "A price of one hundred million per fruit is my final offer, I really can't go any higher!"
"Deal."
Chen Yu turned around with a smile.
In truth, one hundred million was the price Chen Yu had in mind.
Soon, a contract was signed, and Chen Yu handed over the Fruits of Life.
Although the spaceship Chen Yu just test-drove was new, the Sains alien, wary of Chen Yu's dissatisfaction, asked if he wanted to wait a bit longer for a colleague to bring another new one.
Chen Yu declined the offer.
After all, the spacecraft he test-drove was new, and bringing another seemed redundant.
With the purchase process completed and no license needed for the spaceship—as long as one could pilot, that sufficed given the vastness of the universe.
"How do I store this thing in my storage space..."
Looking at the massive spaceship parked on the display square, Chen Yu was momentarily puzzled.
While his storage space was measured according to an Ultraman's size, making storing a spaceship no issue, he couldn't place it into the storage space without transforming, unable to grasp it...
After some thought, Chen Yu approached the spaceship and opened the storage space screen.
He navigated to a blank page, affixed it to the spaceship, and pressed the manual storage button.
The spaceship instantly disappeared from its spot, appearing on the storage space screen.
The sudden disappearance of the spaceship created a vacuum, causing a strong gust of wind that nearly swept Chen Yu away.
Finally stabilizing himself, Chen Yu sighed in relief.
"Customer, are you alright?" the Sains alien approached Chen Yu with a smile, asking, "We have many more technological products from Sains. This top floor is just for spaceships; other floors have even more goods."
Handing Chen Yu a map, the Sains alien added, "This shows the locations of our Sains shops on every floor of the intergalactic exchange convention. Feel free to visit if you're interested."
"Okay."
Chen Yu nodded, accepting the map.
Considering the technology level of Sains seen through this spaceship, it was impressive.
Now that the spaceship was acquired, Chen Yu didn't linger on this floor any longer.
With ninety-five Fruits of Life remaining and their astonishing value, he could likely purchase many items he needed.
Riding the transport elevator, Chen Yu began to explore each floor.
Along the way, he visited other Sains shops, acquiring a sleek, flying mech motorcycle that looked incredibly cool.
Its actual price was only one million tokens.
Hence, Chen Yu thought to exchange a Fruit of Life for tokens at the interstellar bank.
When the mech motorcycle shop's Sains manager heard Chen Yu planned to spend a Fruit of Life for the exchange, he hurriedly stopped Chen Yu.
Persuaded by the Sains manager, Chen Yu traded a Fruit of Life for one hundred million tokens, using just one million from the exchanged amount to purchase the mech motorcycle.
This left Chen Yu speechless.
It seems the tokens from the interstellar bank really weren't as valuable as the Fruit of Life.
It's a case of rarity being the treasure, as the market had a limited supply of Fruits of Life, and many in the universe had short lifespans.
Holding a token card with ninety-nine million remaining, Chen Yu continued his shopping spree.
With hundreds of floors from top to bottom, it was impossible for Chen Yu to visit them all.
However, he acquired quite a few items along the way.
Such as a more powerful laser gun, a laser sword sharp enough to cut through iron like mud, wind-speed shoes to run faster, and a flying skateboard...
Among these, Chen Yu felt the laser sword would likely gather dust after purchase.
Having the Snake Heart Sword, he found little use for a laser sword.
