This caused Fifth Sister Ye Fei to stare blankly for a moment. The other sisters also noticed this scene. Although they felt very apologetic, they didn't panic in their hearts.
After all, it wasn't very expensive stuff. It should be fine as long as they compensated.
Therefore, Sister Five and Ye Fei picked up the crystal clear cobblestone that had been broken into two pieces and put it in her hand. She looked at the old woman and said apologetically, "Grandma, I'm sorry.
"Grandma, I'm sorry. My hand slipped and broke this. How much do you want? I'll compensate you."
When the old woman saw that her things were broken, she was a little anxious. It seemed that there were many people who broke things and left without paying, causing her to be so anxious.
However, when she heard Sister Five and Ye Fei say that they wanted compensation, the anxiety on her face immediately disappeared and was replaced with a gloomy expression. Then, she turned her eyes and looked at Sister Five and Ye Fei and shouted,
"Five thousand!"
Hearing this, the sisters were shocked. A cobblestone, such a cheap item, was actually priced at five thousand? Wasn't this price a bit too much?
It felt like back in China, those stalls selling Buddhist beads, bracelets, rings made of iron, and so on. Just because you broke a stone, the boss directly asked you for a high price of thousands or tens of thousands of yuan. This was clearly acting shamelessly.
Although she was very angry, she didn't lose her temper. She maintained a good attitude and replied,
"Grandma, this cobblestone costs five thousand yuan? Isn't this a bit too expensive? "
"Yes, grandma, this kind of stone is cobblestone. It can't be so expensive. Did you remember the price wrongly?"
"Even if it's jade, such a small piece can't cost so much. Besides, grandma, this is made of cobblestone. It's not worth this price at all."
"How about this, grandma, we definitely can't give you five thousand yuan. We can at most give you five hundred yuan. It's not easy for you. How about it?"
The sisters had already done their best to compensate her with 500 yuan for something that wasn't even worth 5 yuan. It was also because they saw that it wasn't easy for an old woman like her to earn some money at her age. If it were someone else, they would at most compensate her with 50 yuan, which might even be too much.
After all, it was just a cobblestone. It was worthless. In some places, this kind of crystal clear stone could be seen everywhere. This kind of stone was neither industrialized nor refined. It had no use at all. It could only be looked at.
However, it was much better to spend five thousand yuan on a piece of jade than this thing. Jade was spiritual. If it was nurtured well, it was rumored that it could even ward off disasters for its owner.
At the very least, a girl could spend five thousand yuan to buy some crystals back home to play with astrology. Crystals also had spirituality. After being demagnetized, they could still move and look for things. It was also very wonderful. Nothing was better than her Goose Warmth Stone, right? Moreover, this cobblestone was so rough. Saying that it was crystal clear was just a nice name for it. To be honest, it was just a piece of crystal or glass in color.
It was even clear. If it was placed in front of the eyes, people would be blind.
The sisters weren't stupid. They had touched all kinds of good things over the years. Naturally, they knew the value of this cobblestone. It was already considered a profit if they could sell it for five yuan, not to mention five hundred yuan now.
This was simply a huge profit for the old woman. One order was enough to eat for a month at her age.
However, after the old woman heard this, she didn't have any intention of stopping. She stared at the sisters who were foreigners and said with a straight face,
"Five hundred yuan? That won't do. This stone is a special stone of our Da Xia Island. If you don't have five thousand yuan today, don't think about getting this matter over with! "
Ye Xuan was amused when he heard this old woman's serious nonsense. She really thought that the entire world didn't know what the specialty and specialty of Grand Xia Island was. She grabbed onto a cobblestone and said that it was a f * cking special stone. It seemed like China had never had a cobblestone before? All the cobblestones in the country were imported?
It was really funny. However, thinking about it, these old women were already so old. They didn't know how to read and couldn't play with their phones. At most, they would listen to other people talk about it. If not, they would look at the news and think that foreigners didn't know anything about Da Xia Island.
It seemed like she was sure of this.
"It must be five thousand yuan. Not a cent less! This stone is my most precious item. You must compensate me with five thousand yuan! Do you foreigners have this kind of quality? You came to Da Xia Island for a vacation. You can't say that you won't compensate just because you broke something! You foreigners really don't know anything about our Da Xia Island. This kind of stone is the most precious! My purchase price is four thousand yuan. Normally, I sell it for seven to eight thousand yuan. Today, I'm only asking you to compensate me with five thousand yuan. That's already considered cheap! Hurry up and pay up! "
Good heavens, Ye Xuan called out, "Good heavens. You and your sisters didn't come to a small stall, but to an antique street?"
The purchase price is four thousand yuan. Normally, you sell it for seven to eight thousand yuan. Old woman, you don't go to an antique street in China. It's really a waste of a rare talent. What a pity.
When the older women saw how unreasonable the old woman was, they were a little speechless. Then, they tried to reason with her.
"No, Grandma. This stone is really not worth five thousand yuan. It looks like it's only worth a few dozen yuan. You can't extort us."
"Yes, Grandma. You can't extort us like this. We can compensate you with five hundred yuan. That's already very good. We won't increase the price beyond five hundred yuan."
"You old woman, how can you say that? Five hundred yuan can buy a few kilograms of this stone. If you ask for five thousand yuan, it's a bit of a scam."
"Anyway, we're only offering five hundred yuan. Just tell us if you want it or not. We can't do anything if you don't want it."
At this time, the older women seemed to be a little unhappy. After all, who knew that they would encounter such a situation. It was obvious that they saw that they were foreigners and wanted to scam them.
