âWhatâs wrong with that?â Luo Sheng looked at Mary Fate in confusion.
âThis work of art is worth at least 50 gold coins, and you might not even be able to buy it with money!â Mary Fate said, taking on the appearance of a merchant.
She felt that if she didnât tell Luo Sheng, he would lose a large sum of money for nothing.
How could such a valuable item be casually put up for sale?
Acoley stood by, staring blankly.
She had actually gotten used to Luo Sheng being able to produce strange and wonderful things.
Previously in Divatu City, Luo Sheng had brought out many items, such as flashlights, various medicines, and even exquisite outdoor stoves.
So, no matter what Luo Sheng brought out, she didnât feel surprised anymore.
But Mary Fate kept tugging on Acoleyâs arm, âQuickly control your boyfriend, or it will be a losing deal. You donât want to see him lose so much, do you?â
âItâs actually fine,â Acoley said calmly.
âYouâre too indulgent with your boyfriend! Arenât you worried that one day, heâll spend all his money and then have no money to marry you?â Mary Fate was filled with righteous indignation.
She felt that her good friend was completely lovesick.
Actually letting her boyfriend act recklessly.
Not even trying to control him or make plans for the future.
When Acoley heard the words âmarry youâ, her cheeks immediately turned as red as apples, âActually, if he really wants to marry me, he doesnât need money, something simple would do. I could make a good meal, and thenâŚâ
At this point, her face turned even redder, but her eyes held a hint of expectation.
âOh my goodness!â
Mary Fate was speechless.
Her good friend had such low demands.
This silly girl would surely be deceived by Luo Sheng sooner or later.
Hmph, she wouldnât bother with them anymore!
Mary Fate felt like she was going to be angered to death by them.
Luo Sheng looked at Mary Fate with amusement, feeling that she was worried about his money.
âIs this really so valuable?â Luo Sheng asked again.
âOf course itâs valuable. If it were mine, I would definitely keep it safe, or even take it to auction. The price would certainly be no less than 50 gold coins, possibly exceeding 70 gold coins,â Mary Fate said.
âAlright then, Iâll sell this pendulum to you. Can you come up with 50 gold coins?â Luo Sheng inquired once more.
âUhâŚâ Mary Fate immediately lowered her head.
She didnât have that much money.
Luo Sheng laughed for a while, then looked at the pawnshop owner, âHow much can you offer for this?â
âHehe⌠Weâre just a small business, we can only give you 45 gold coins at most.â The pawnshop owner laughed awkwardly.
If Mary Fate hadnât directly quoted the price,
The pawnshop owner could have bought it at an even lower price.
Unfortunately, Mary Fate had ruined a good deal for him.
Luo Sheng hesitated for a moment, then nodded, âAlright, letâs go with that price then.â
âHahaha, of course, no problem. Hereâs the contract, once itâs signed, the deal is done.â The pawnshop owner immediately beamed with joy, quickly bringing out the contract and a pen.
He was afraid Luo Sheng might change his mind.
Luo Sheng also unhesitatingly signed his name on the contract, completing the transaction.You are reading on NovelPing, the official source.
Mary Fate looked at him, very exasperated, âYouâve been lowballed. Itâs such a loss, at least enough for us to go to the Eastern Special Restaurant half a time.â
âBecause I was afraid he might back out,â Luo Sheng said with a smile.
Mary Fate tilted her head, looking at him in confusion: âAfraid heâd back out?â
âMm.â
Luo Sheng nodded lightly, then continued to take out several identical pendulums from his Azure Feather Wood Shift.
All were exquisitely carved, the finest of the fine.
âYou see, I still have more, donât I?â
âThisâŚ!â Mary Fate was immediately speechless, but this time her eyes lit up even more, âYou actually have so many pendulums.â
Is this guy a gold mine?
He can casually produce such an exquisite pendulum.
Whether in this kingdom or other countries, itâs impossible to manufacture such precise instruments, even though they already have time units.
But they are relatively crude, and the volume is also very large, only able to be installed on large buildings.
Luo Sheng looked at her surprised appearance, very pleased, and said: âSo you know why I donât care? Because Iâm not short of them at all.â
âAcoley really found a good boyfriend, damn it, I also want toâŚâ Mary Fate suddenly envied Acoley again.
However, an idea popped into Mary Fateâs mind: âHow about this, give these to me first, Iâll find a way to sell them at a high price for you. When the time comes, you only need to give me 10% of the profit, no no no, even 5% is fine.â
Mary Fate threw away her previous thought of not caring about them anymore.
After all, Luo Sheng once again exceeded her expectations.
This guy, if he cooperates with her, Mary Fate estimates that her familyâs business could take off instantly.
Of course, if Mary Fateâs father hadnât failed in business and become a fallen noble, she wouldnât be so particular about every little detail like now.
Luo Sheng saw her eager eyes.
He casually said: âOf course, no problem. I have some other odd things here that you should find useful. Just put all the money earned with Acoley.â
âAs for how to split it, you can discuss it with her. Acoley represents me.â
As soon as Luo Sheng finished speaking, Acoley was immediately stunned.
She showed an expression of not knowing what to do.
These things were all very valuable, yet he actually entrusted her to handle the money earned.
âThis doesnât seem right, Iâm justâŚâ Acoley wanted to decline.
Luo Sheng held her hand, laughing: âIf not you, then who? Should I give it to her?â Luo Sheng casually pointed at Mary Fate.
Mary Fate nodded frantically, âYes, yes!â
Deals worth hundreds of gold coins in a matter of minutes, Mary Fate wished all this money could enter her own pocket.
âMmâŚâ Acoley shook her head.
She felt that Mary Fate was not quite right. If Luo Sheng used some more money to tempt her, Mary Fate would probably be willing to lie in bed too.
Luo Sheng traced Acoleyâs nose, âAlright, Iâll leave it to you. Anyway, Iâll be leaving in a while, and you need money too. Just consider it our future wedding fund.â
At this, a faint blush appeared on Acoleyâs fair and tender face, and her breathing became slightly hurried.
Especially when thinking about this being the wedding fund.
She didnât know whether she was joyful or nervous.
Acoley finally nodded, âOkay, Iâll help you keep it safe.â
Mary Fate looked at the two of them, feeling very exasperated.
This guy was simply showing off his affection right in front of her.Visit novelpinâ g.com for the full chapter.
Mary Fate felt like she had suffered 10,000 points of critical damage, her heart feeling a chill. She felt like she had won, but not completely.
But in her heart, she was also silently happy for Acoley. After all, she had found a very remarkable boyfriend and would no longer have to live those hard days.
In her heart, she still blessed Acoley.
âLetâs take the gold coins and go. If weâre any later, the restaurant will be full,â Mary Fate said, averting her gaze.
She didnât notice.
At this moment, the pawnshop ownerâs heart was even colder.
He felt that he had lost out.
Especially when Luo Sheng brought out a large number of exquisite art pieces, the merchant knew he had missed a huge opportunity.
With such a supplier who could provide unique goods, if he became the agent, he could monopolize the entire market.
How lucrative the profits would be.
Needless to say, everyone knew.
The merchant could only awkwardly say: âHere, sir, your money.â
Luo Sheng pocketed the gold coins.
Then he left the pawnshop with Acoley and Mary Fate.
At this time, Mary Fate asked curiously: âLuo Sheng, which noble family are you from? Iâve never heard of someone like you.â
âItâs normal that you havenât heard of me. To be precise, Iâm not a noble, just an ordinary person pretending to be a gentleman,â Luo Sheng said honestly.
There was nothing to hide from Mary Fate.
Anyway, Acoley would tell her sooner or later.
âBut youâre so strong, how is it possible that youâre not famous in the kingdom?â Mary Fate pondered.
âItâs normal that you donât know,â Acoley answered from the side.
âYou should know, right?â
âActually, I donât know either. Heâs too mysterious,â Acoley replied.
âBut youâre his girlfriend, how is that possible?â Mary Fate found it even stranger.
ââŚâ Acoley was a bit at a loss whether to laugh or cry, and finally admitted frankly: âAlright, Iâm indeed not very competent.â
All along, it had been Luo Sheng taking care of her.
She had actually thought about getting to know Luo Sheng better.
Unfortunately, every time, she couldnât truly touch his secrets.
She only knew that Luo Sheng was very mysterious, had no fixed abode, and possessed various powerful abilities.
Of course, most importantly, no matter what accident happened to her, he could always find her.
Acoley secretly looked at Luo Shengâs face, some words stuck in her throat, not knowing how to speak them.
Luo Sheng patted her head and said: âDonât listen to her too much. Itâs normal that you donât know. Some things canât be understood by people. Of course, youâre the one who understands me the most in this world.â
âReally?â
âI wouldnât lie to you. How about we have a deeper exchange tonight?â Luo Sheng reached out to hold her waist, half-jokingly said.
Acoley felt a tingling sensation come over her, and an indescribable shyness welled up in her heart.
She didnât know how to answer.
