Chapter 56 - The Unexpected Deal

There were other people who didn't even have a hard time taking things out of the system's backpack.

Kim Haru was puzzled when he saw Hwa Jian suddenly spill a large pile of crystal cores from above, all colors shimmering and forming a small mountain at his feet.

This… what is this?!

Kim Haru was even more confused.

Is this person possibly out of their mind?

Hwa Jian had no idea that someone doubted his mental state. At this moment, he was just filled with excitement: "I want to buy vegetables! It's 20 crystal cores for a pound of cabbage, right? Look at how many crystal cores I have; I'll buy them all!"

Oh my god! Is this price real? Such good cabbage, and it only costs 20 crystal cores for a pound! If the vendor didn't know the market price, he must be selling them at this low price as a form of charity.

Hwa Jian had heard that some wealthy people did this kind of thing.

If that's the case, it's no wonder he chose such a remote place to set up shop; he must want to operate on the principle of "those destined to have it will receive it."

Those people above love this kind of thing.

Hwa Jian didn't care what kind of situation the vendor was in; all he knew was that he was getting a great deal this time! Taking advantage of a good bargain isn't something a wealthy family would do. When you're poor, how can you have so much goodwill?

Upon hearing the vendor's price, he hurried back to bring out all the crystal cores he had at home, thinking he might even be able to buy enough for a meal!

Hwa Jian anxiously looked at the vendor, fearing he might suddenly say he wasn't selling anymore.

Kim Haru paused for a moment, then realized that this person was trying to buy something.

No matter how strange his behavior was, being willing to buy something made him a customer.

Kim Haru felt a bit happy but simply said, "No."

Hwa Jian was stunned.

He looked at the pile of crystal cores at his feet and forced a bitter smile.

Yeah, how could anything be this cheap? Even if such a good deal existed, how could it possibly come to him?

Feeling dejected, Hwa Jian prepared to gather up his crystal cores when he suddenly heard the next words from above.

"Twenty for a pound," Kim Haru corrected the customer's mistake.

Twenty for a pound, and he was already worried that the price would be too high; twenty for a pound was an outrageous price for cabbage!

Hwa Jian mechanically looked up.

What, what? Did he hear wrong?

"Are you saying twenty crystal cores for a pound of cabbage?"

Kim Haru nodded.

A wave of excitement instantly flooded Hwa Jian's face!

The crystal cores in his hands felt like hot potatoes as he pushed them toward Kim Haru.

"I want to buy! Whatever I can get, I'll buy as much as possible!"
