With just one sentence, the surrounding merchants immediately glared at him, especially the merchant who had just made a bid. His face was flushed red, but he seemed to be quite afraid of this middle-aged bearded man. He only dared to be angry but did not dare to say anything.
One hundred and fifty spiritual jades? Lin Yi's heart stirred!
This price could not be considered low. At least, among all the early Foundation Establishment realm spirit beast carcasses he had seen before, this was already the highest price. This bearded middle-aged man was indeed quite straightforward.
Seeing that Lin Yi was a little tempted, the other merchant beside him couldn't help but become anxious. He hurriedly said, "I'll pay one hundred and sixty spirit jades!"
The bearded middle-aged man glanced at the man, and without even lifting his eyelids, he immediately raised the price, "One hundred and eighty spirit jades!"
When the others saw how wealthy and confident he was, they all felt helpless. Although the carcass of a Nine-Tailed Cloud Leopard was extremely rare, it was still an early-stage Foundation Establishment Realm spirit beast. This price had already exceeded the upper limit.
If they raised the price even more, even if they managed to get their hands on it, even if they successfully sold it, they wouldn't be able to make much profit. They would just be working for Lin Yi, a stranger they had never met before.
But even so, a merchant gritted his teeth and increased the price: "I bid one hundred and eighty-five spiritual jades!"
However, before Lin Yi could react, the bearded middle-aged man immediately called out, "200 Spirit Jades!"
With that, all the other merchants stopped talking.
If he were to purchase the corpse of an early Foundation Establishment Spirit Beast for more than two hundred spirit jades, even if it was an extremely rare Cloud Piercing Panther, it would be a loss. It would be impossible for him to make any profit.
Even Lin Yi couldn't help but think highly of this bearded middle-aged man. To be honest, the first impression that this person gave him was that he was a typical businessman. He seemed sincere and enthusiastic, but in fact, he was secretly scheming. Who knew when he would be ripped off by him. But now, it seemed that even if this person was a businessman, he was also a bold one.
For the corpse of a Cloud Piercing Panther without a Neidan. He dared to offer a high price of 200 Spirit Jades without batting an eyelid, making his competitors speechless. This kind of boldness was not something an ordinary person could have.
Lin Yi looked at the other people's faces, and he was sure that they wouldn't be bidding anymore. Just as he was about to make his decision, a passerby sighed and looked at Lin Yi. "This is a rare item, it's hard to come by. It's a pity to sell it! "
Lin Yi couldn't help but be stunned, and he carefully sized up this person. His appearance was ordinary, and his clothes were rather sloppy and ordinary. It could even be said to be shabby, and his strength couldn't be considered to be very strong. He only looked like he was at the peak of the early stage of Foundation Establishment, so he was not conspicuous at all in the crowd.
However, after taking a closer look, Lin Yi realized that this person's temperament was rather different from others. It was not the temperament of a genius, but the temperament of a scientist who persistently studied something all year round.
If he had to find someone around him as an example, this person gave Lin Yi the feeling. He was somewhat similar to Han Jingjing.
Although Han Jingjing was a little muddle-headed in her daily life and didn't seem to have any special talents, when it came to alchemy, her talent could be said to be unprecedented. If she really developed, she could even belong to the kind of phenomenal existence that could turn the entire alchemy world upside down, and lead the future of change.
And this ordinary-looking person in front of him also had such an extraordinary temperament. It was just that his talent might not necessarily be in alchemy.
Before Lin Yi could speak, the middle-aged bearded man beside him became anxious. He glared at this person and said unhappily, "Trash King, you poor fellow, what nonsense are you spouting? I offered 200 Spirit Jades to buy this brother's Cloud Piercing Panther corpse, and you actually say it's a pity? If you have the ability, then give me a higher price. Let alone 200 Spirit Jades, you probably can't even take out 20 Spirit Jades! "
The person called Trash King immediately became embarrassed. Seeing that everyone was looking at him, he couldn't help but wave his hands in embarrassment and say, "I'm not saying that selling it for 200 Spirit Jades is a pity. The price of 200 Spirit Jades is indeed very high, but some things can only be found by chance, and are priceless. If the front claws and tail of the Cloud Piercing Panther were used to forge weapons, the value of the forged weapons would be at least over 2,000 Spirit Jades! "
"Tch! You're just bluffing! With your Trash King's skills, you can forge weapons worth 2,000 Spirit Jades? Who are you trying to fool! "
The middle-aged bearded man glared at him, then turned to Lin Yi and explained, "Brother, don't listen to this kid's crazy talk. This kid is the most unpopular inner disciple of Blue Cloud Pavilion. His name is Wang Lanpo, and he doesn't know how to do anything but forge weapons. He even calls himself a Master Blacksmith. He often buys the leftover bits and pieces of spirit beast corpses from us, but he's never forged anything decent. They're all a pile of trash, so we always call him Trash King."
Listening to the middle-aged bearded man's introduction, the Trash King was so anxious that his face turned red. He hurriedly explained, "That's because you guys don't know anything about blacksmithing. When it comes to blacksmithing, quality trumps everything else. A true Master Blacksmith will use the worst materials to forge the best weapons. As for the success rate, it's only secondary. I'm just a little lower …"
"As far as I know, you've never truly forged a weapon successfully, have you? How dare you say that your success rate is just a little lower? "The middle-aged bearded man and the others who knew about this guy burst into laughter.
"Blacksmithing masters only talk about quality, not success rate. What do you amateurs know …" The Trash King continued to defend himself with a flushed face. However, judging from the reactions of the crowd, it was obvious that his efforts were in vain.
Lin Yi, who was watching coldly from the sidelines, could not help but smile when he saw this. This Trash King was an interesting person. He was like the Kong Yiji of the cultivation world!
Just as the crowd was teasing the Trash King, Lin Yi suddenly asked, "Brother Wang, did you just say that the front claws and tail of the Nine-tailed Cloud Leopard are good materials for forging weapons?"
The crowd was stunned. They stared at Lin Yi strangely and exchanged glances with one another. Does this guy really believe the Trash King's nonsense?
