C151 – Who Is the Fool?
Upon hearing the remark, Jiang Hao feigned a sudden realization.
“Oh, now I get it!”
“I’m not interested in buying it anymore.”
With that, Jiang Hao started to rise, ready to walk away.
“But I really do like them!”
In that moment, Jiang Hao gazed longingly at the Tiger Talisman in the young man’s hands.
The young man, seizing the opportunity, thought quickly on his feet.
“I can’t believe I was so blind to buy a fake, and now the vendor won’t even take it back.
But since this naive kid seems to like it so much, why not sell it to him? At least I’ll recoup some of my loss.”Rêạd new chapters at novelhall.com
“Sure, this sucker doesn’t look like he has much money, but he’s gullible!”
He had already pegged Jiang Hao as an easy mark.
How could he possibly let such a mark slip away?
He quickly stood, grabbed Jiang Hao, and angrily berated the good Samaritan who had tipped Jiang Hao off.
“What are you blabbering about? This is a family heirloom. Watch your mouth, or I’ll sue you for defamation!”
“Here you go. Will you be paying with cash, a treasure note, or a bank transfer?”
The young man was anxious that Jiang Hao might change his mind.
The onlookers, cautioned by the young man, refrained from interfering and instead watched the unfolding drama with interest.
Yet, at that moment, Jiang Hao did not accept the Tiger Talisman the young man offered.
The young man was visibly puzzled.
At that time, Jiang Hao, still looking down, spoke up in a timid voice.
“Big brother, I... I only need two thousand! Not twenty thousand!”
The young man’s eyes bulged in shock.
“What?! Two thousand?”
But he quickly sized up Jiang Hao’s simple clothes and youthful face and realized his error.
Indeed, it was fanciful to expect a student to casually produce twenty thousand!
The young man winced internally but consoled himself.
“Still, two thousand will do. At least I’ll recover some of my investment.”
Externally, the young man put on a show of reluctance.
“Two thousand is really too little, isn’t it? This is a cherished heirloom!”
“How about you add a little more? Add a bit, and we have a deal!”
