Setting up the stall on the second day did not go as smoothly as Liu Yu expected. The business was far from as good as the first day. He only sold a few items in a short time. It seemed right. The best-selling spiritual materials were sold early on the first day. Whether it is sold or left, it is relatively unpopular, so naturally it is not so popular.
Liu Yu had no choice but to shout at the top of his voice: "On the last day of the loss-making sale, there are fifty-one "Qi Shock Pills", four hundred and thirty-one second-grade intermediate spiritual talismans "Mu Yuan Shield", and two hundred and eighty-year old mountains. It only costs five hundred low-level spiritual stones, come and see, come and see!"
Just as Liu Yu was shouting and his mouth was dry, an old man with a bright head came up and asked politely: "Little brother, how do you sell this piece of "black potato"?"
Liu Yu saw the face of this handsome old man clearly, and his heart skipped a beat. Isn't this the same Mr. Tian who bought the "Broken Sky Grass" at a sky-high price yesterday? He glanced at the fist-sized black lump pointed by the old man again, swallowed his saliva and said, "You always said this thing is "black potato"?"
"Isn't it? Although the color of the skin is a bit mottled, look at it, look at its shape. Recently, the old man has dampness and heat in the spleen and stomach, feels tired and heavy, and has loose stools. This "black potato" regulates qi and neutralizes qi, clears away heat and dampness, and is cooked Eating it can help recuperate the spleen and stomach, little brother, how many spiritual stones are there!" The old man said with a sallow complexion and looked sickly.
"To tell you the truth, what is this black lump? I don't know. The surface of "black potato" is smooth and black charcoal, but the skin of this black lump is rough and the color is not pure black with red. It should not be "black potato". Yes." Liu Yu glanced at the black bump and said tentatively.
What is this black pimple? Liu Yu really didn't know. He asked many stall owners the day before yesterday, but they couldn't explain the reason. Maybe Junior Sister Yun or Senior Brother Xiao accidentally put it on the table without marking the price.
"Black Mountain Taro" is a second-grade intermediate elixir that grows deep in the mountains and is hidden in the soil. It regulates qi and relieves fever. It is often used as an auxiliary spiritual material for alchemy.
Liu Yu had seen what "Black Mountain Taro" looked like. This black lump was definitely not "Black Mountain Taro". In addition, the old man's nickname was "Tian Yiyan". Liu Yu was very doubtful at this moment. Tian always wanted to pick things up. This The black knot is probably some kind of unknown rare spiritual material.
"You little brother, at such an old age, you can still misunderstand this. The skin of this "black potato" is a bit rough, but it is big, which is exactly what I want. Let's do it! How about thirty low-level spiritual stones? This is the only one available elsewhere. Price!" The old man picked up the black lump, looked at it and said.
"Old man, why don't you buy it elsewhere? These "black potato" are everywhere. This one really doesn't look like it, and I don't know what it is. I can't be unconscionable. It's not illegal to sell it. You always buy it back, just in case. This kid can't bear to eat his body badly." Liu Yu took the black lump back from the old man's hand naturally and said considerately.
The old man frowned when he saw the young man taking back the piece of "black potato". The young man looked angry, and he didn't look like the owner who often set up stalls. Could it be that he recognized himself, so he immediately said: "Little brother , do you know the old man?"
"I've heard of your name, and I saw your demeanor at the auction stage yesterday!" Liu Yu smiled slightly and nodded.
The expression on the old man's face suddenly changed and turned red. There was no hint of illness. He looked at Liu Yu with bright eyes and said with a smile: "Hey! Being too famous is not necessarily a good thing! Little brother, Now that you know my name, I will get straight to the point."
"This is indeed not an ordinary "Black Mountain Taro". Ordinary "Black Mountain Taro" is only a few decades old. After it is ripe, no one digs it, so it rots in the ground, or sprouts and branches. It can only grow in places with fertile soil." , it will continue to grow. This "black potato" is over a thousand years old, so the skin will be so rough and ugly."
Ye Yun was originally watching with confusion. After "Tian Yiyan" finished speaking, he immediately said angrily: "Okay! You old man, it turned out to be a liar. Fortunately, Senior Brother Liu was not fooled, otherwise he would have been fooled." You succeeded, huh!"
"Little girl, what you said is wrong! In Wuhu Square, the business is unpredictable, and everyone relies on their eyesight. How can it be called "cheating"? Besides, very few people know about this thing, and no one cares about it here. In the end The end result is that I will be abandoned by you. If I sell it to the old man, I can still earn some spiritual stones, right?" The old man said with dignity without changing his expression.
"That's nonsense. You're an old man, so you just want to find out what's wrong?" Ye Yun has a straightforward temper, but he can't listen to the old man's sophistry.
Liu Yu quickly shook her head at Ye Yun and said, "Junior Sister Ye, don't be irrational!" Then she raised her hands to the old man and said, "Mr. Tian, Junior Sister Ye is young and energetic, and these are all unintentional remarks."
The old man was not angry. He had heard these words many times and said kindly: "Now that the matter has come to this, I will buy this "black potato" for 500 low-level spiritual stones. What do you think, little brother?"
Ye Yun then reminded: "Senior Brother Liu, I think this old man is very cunning, don't be in a hurry to sell."
"Little girl, although this piece of "Black Mountain Taro" is over a thousand years old, it is not a rare thing. After all, it is only a second-grade spiritual material, and it is only more effective than ordinary "Black Mountain Taro". Go and find out." You know, five hundred low-level spiritual stones is already a high price." The old man said confidently without being angry at all.
"Mr. Tian is right, the thousand-year-old "Black Potato" is only three to four hundred pieces of low-level spiritual stones."
"That's right, this thousand-year-old "black potato" is not a rare thing. Pindao has one. Five hundred low-level spiritual stones are already a high price, little girl!"
"That's right! You've earned five hundred low-level spiritual stones."
"yes!"
…
At this time, the surroundings were crowded with onlookers. The famous "Tian Yiyan" stumbled, which was rare, and everyone made noises when they heard this.
The thousand-year-old "Black Mountain Taro" is indeed not worth many spiritual stones, and it is not a very precious spiritual material. Unlike rare spiritual materials such as wild ginseng, Zhicao, and red fruits, the value of it rises linearly as the years go by.
"Tian Lao! I have never seen "Black Mountain Taro" in this thousand years. I want to stay and have a good look at it when I have time. How is it different from ordinary "Black Mountain Taro"? If you are in urgent need, go to another store and buy it first!" Liu Yu held the "black pimple" in her hand and said slowly.
As soon as Liu Yu said this, the crowd exploded with a burst of noisy comments.
"This man really doesn't know how to appreciate praise!"
"I really think that the thousand-year-old "black potato" is a treasure!"
"Mr. Tian, there happens to be a piece on the lower stall. If you want it, I'll bring it to you!"
…
Of course, a few people looked at the piece of "black potato" in Liu Yu's hand, and then looked at "Tian Yiyan"'s bitter face, showing a thoughtful expression.
The old man didn't expect that the other party actually rejected him, and his face suddenly turned livid. Others thought that the old man had lost face and was resentful. In fact, the old man was restless at this time and his heart was burning.
