“What? No way?” Vincent Wolf was dumbfounded.
“Why not? That green light was also created by that old man’s pet beast, and the man next to him was a shill hired by the old man!”
“The shill had been hovering around for a while, waiting for you to take the bait before performing this scene!”
“Looking at this performance, I guess this scam has been well-coordinated for a while. They just acted a bit too forcefully, if you ask me. It would have been better for them to act more naturally!”
“But then again, they probably thought you might not be very discerning, so they figured a more exaggerated performance would be better.”
“Mhm, it worked quite well on you. Looking back on it, this guy seems to be fairly skilled.”
Scratching his head, Vincent realized that, just like in his previous life, his being scammed skills were more advanced than his scamming skills. With a sly glance at Vincent, the middle-aged man said, “Grandpa, since this young man doesn’t have the money, you don’t need to worry about him anymore. Just give me the gourd already!”
The stall owner was somewhat unwilling to decide so quickly. He still wanted to try to deceive Vincent some more, but in order to keep the performance going, he said, “In that case, this gourd… ”
“Hold it!”
Under the sincere expectations of the two swindlers, Vincent’s melodious voice bloomed in their ears.
“I didn’t say I didn’t want it!”
‘What can a pauper like you afford? Can you beat me? Grandpa, how much do you want for this gourd?” The middle-aged scammer was overjoyed, but he put on an angry and desperate look.
“50 thousand Cathay currency,” the stall owner replied.
“I’ll offer 100 thousand! Heard me? If you can’t afford it, go home and cry to your mommy!” The middle-aged man sneered.
His sneering words made Vincent’s anger burn.
“100 thousand? Hmph! I’ll offer 110 thousand!”
“I’ll offer 120 thousand!”
“I’ll offer 130 thousand, and I’ll give you an extra thousand if you stop competing with me!”
“What kind of offer is that? I’ll offer 150 thousand, and I’ll give you two thousand if you stop competing with me!”
“Alright, deal!!!”
What just happened?
The stall owner and the middle-aged man were both stunned.
“Since you’ve already said you’ll give me two thousand and your attitude is so resolute, I’ll give you face and stop competing. There’s no point competing since I won’t be able to outbid you anyway.” Vincent spread his hands, “Hey, uncle, please give me the two thousand as a kind gesture.”
The middle-aged man’s brain hadn’t quite caught up yet, “Wait, that’s not right, you sure you don’t want to try again? Maybe when you offer 170 thousand and give me three thousand, I’ll stop competing.”
“No need, no need. I understand your determination very well. I can’t beat you no matter how this continues, and I don’t have that much money anyway.” Vincent said with a smiling face.
The middle-aged man and the stall owner exchanged glances, sure that they had met an even more cunning person.
The stall owner suddenly yelled out loud, and Vincent was startled.
Next, he saw the two of them running away as fast as rabbits, disappearing in an instant.
Only Vincent and the lonely stall remained, swaying in the wind.
“I mean, your stall…”
Looking at the pile of fake goods on the stall, Vincent was speechless.
He casually pocketed the “jade” gourd.
Although it was a stone, it still looked quite nice, so he thought it was worth keeping.
“Vincent, why aren’t you going?”
Dragon Town’s voice came.
“Why should I leave? Do you expect me to watch their stall for them?” Vincent stopped in his tracks, puzzled.
“I’m not talking about watching their stall. Although this stone gourd isn’t anything special, there’s indeed something good among the stuff on their stall,” said Dragon Town.
Vincent was shocked and then delighted!
“Haha, I knew that bringing Uncle Cartwright along would bring fortune, good luck, and wealth from all directions!”
Showering Dragon Town with a series of well-versed flattery, Vincent hurried to the stall.
Dragon Town was quite pleased, “Recently, you’ve learned to respect your elders. That’s very good. Not that one, but the bead right next to it. Yes, that one.”
Vincent picked up the bead in front of him and looked at it carefully.
It was a glass bead with a radius of about one centimeter, gray and murky on the inside, not transparent, and quite ordinary at first glance, even somewhat ugly.
“Uncle Cartwright, what’s so special about this?” Vincent asked.
“Actually, I’m not too sure either. I just feel like it’s a special item, but I can’t say exactly how or why it’s special.” Dragon Town was a bit embarrassed, but he was only experienced in these things and not a professional appraiser.
“No matter, we can’t let it go anyway.” With a ‘pluck feathers from a passing goose’ mentality, Vincent stashed it directly into his Space Bracelet.
As for the other items on the stall, Vincent felt that putting them into the Space Bracelet would take up too much space, so he left them there, unattended.
“I’ve strolled around enough, and two or three hours have passed, it’s time to go home.”
So, Vincent left the Death Demonic Domain and prepared to go home.
At tne same time.
Mary Hale was in the hospital with the Kinship Appraisal Report, her hands trembling uncontrollably.
“I’ve finally confirmed it!”
“I knew I’d never mistake Sis Winter’s grace! ‘
Mary recalled the gentle and beautiful figure and that enchanting smile, her nose suddenly sour, unable to hold back her tears.
“Sis Winter, he looks so much like you now, so captivating. I’ve made up my mind to take care of your son from now on. Please rest in peace.”
As if thinking of something happy, she secretly smiled.
After laughing for a while, Mary thought of something and hurriedly took out her mobile phone, then dialed a number.
“Hello, is it Little Cloud? What’s the matter?” A somewhat aged but still very powerful voice came from the other end of the phone.
“Grandpa Winter, I have some good news to tell you!” Mary said teasingly.
“Just tell me straight. Don’t I know you? Is it that you’re in trouble again, and old man Hale wants to beat you up, so you’ve come to plead for mercy with me?” Aiden Winter laughed heartily.
“How could that be! It’s truly not this time!” Mary said mysteriously, “Please be ready because I’m about to tell you the truth.”
“Fine, just tell me quickly. I have a meeting to attend shortly, with all Grandmaster Beast Masters, so it won’t be good to be late,” said Aiden Winter casually.
“Then get ready — actually, you have a grandson-in-law!” Mary finally blurted it out.
However, there was no movement on the other end of the phone.
Just when Mary thought there was a problem with the phone signal, there was a sudden burst of crackling noise from the phone, along with some collapsing sounds.
Mary listened carefully and could hear the hustle and bustle of people on the other end.
There were phrases like “The old man’s tearing the house down!” and “The old man’s blown the roof off” and “The old man’s gone mad again!” “Grandpa Winter, what’s going on over there?” Mary was puzzled. “Oh, I found the roof to be in the way, so I just smashed it and flew out.” “What meeting is so urgent?”
“What meeting should I attend now? I must hurry to see my grandson-in-law!”
