After a careful search, Kaede Sato finally found the iron net he needed at a stall on the side. After seeing the other things on the stall, his eyes lit up as if he had discovered a new continent.
Compared to other stalls with all kinds of Wisp tools and Wisp tools for sale, the items on this stall were relatively shabby. The items on the stall were all second-hand training tools that had been discarded.
For example, dumbbells of various sizes and weighted sandbags to train the Wisp's limbs, frisbees to train the Wisp's body coordination, and weighted vests to train the Wisp's physique.
Judging from the degree of dilapidation of these second-hand training tools, they had been used for a long time. There were many scratches on the surface, and the colors painted on them were also very faded.
However, judging from the overall structure, these second-hand training tools were still quite intact. There were no serious cracks on them. As long as they were careful, they could still be used for a month or two without any problems.
"Hello, senior. How much are you selling this iron net and these training tools?" After seeing the items that were very suitable for him, Kaede Sato immediately stepped forward and politely asked for the price.
The person selling these props was a tall and sturdy man. He had a standard square face, thick eyebrows, and big eyes. His eyes were squinted, and he looked quite simple and honest.
The burly man was currently the lowest level soldier. At this time, he was sitting cross-legged on the ground. When he saw Kaede Sato, the recruit, approaching him, his honest face showed a hint of joy.
"It's really rare for a recruit like you to come to this place alone on your first day. You have good taste. These are all very good Wisp training tools. Although they look a little worn out, they can at least be used for a year and a half. I won't lie to you. That iron net and a set of training tools can be sold to you for 200 points." Hearing Kaede Sato's polite inquiry, the burly man also showed an honest smile and said with a smile.
However, after hearing the burly man say that he wanted to spend 200 points to buy the iron net and a set of training tools, Kaede Sato's face became a little dissatisfied.
Kaede Sato also saw the simple set of training tools in the burly man's stall from the points exchange system. The original price was only 300 points, and according to the depreciation rate of the burly man's training tools, it was at least 80% more.
As for the iron net, the exchange price in the points exchange system was 20 points. Judging from its depreciation rate, it was about 20%.
Therefore, what the burly man said was simply nonsense. In Kaede Sato's view, the iron net and the set of training tools were worth at most 86 points. If they were second-hand goods, they would be at least 40% off, which was about 50 points.
"Senior, you must be joking. You must have forgotten to give me a discount. How about a 20% discount? If that's not possible, then I'll raise the price a little and buy these two items with 50 points. "Kaede Sato said to the burly man with a calm expression.
This time, after hearing Kaede Sato's words, the burly man's honest smile disappeared in an instant. He opened his eyes and looked at Kaede Sato from head to toe with interest, as if he wanted to memorize his entire appearance and details.
When the burly man opened his eyes, a terrifying aura that seemed to be able to devour a person suddenly emanated from his body and directly affected Sato Tengfeng.
In an instant, Katsukaze Sato felt that the person he was facing this time was not a person, but a tiger that was forcing him into a desperate situation. A thin layer of cold sweat suddenly covered his sallow and emaciated face. His face also became a little pale, and his body involuntarily trembled.
However, even in the face of the burly man's strong oppression, Kaede Sato's eyes remained calm. He had already died once and had nothing to worry about. Death was not scary to him. How could a person who was not afraid of death be afraid of a mere beast?
"What has this person experienced? Isn't he afraid at all? That look in his eyes is really annoying. " The burly man was originally proud of Kaede Sato's fearful behavior, but when he saw Kaede Sato's eyes, the pride and arrogance in his heart suddenly disappeared, and a sense of danger lingered in his heart.
In fact, Kaede Sato was not the first person who thought of coming to the public market. Before him, there were already 12 people who came here.
However, five of them were scared away by the terrifying atmosphere as soon as they came in. The remaining seven people were as discerning as Kaede Sato. They found the burly man's second-hand training equipment and went up to ask for the price.
The burly man's answer was exactly the same as what he said to Kaede Sato before. However, those who thought of coming to the public market on the first day and stayed were obviously not easy to deal with. Unsurprisingly, they said the same thing as Kaede Sato.
Then, it was time for the burly man to perform. Just like before, he directly relied on his aura to suppress these disobedient newcomers.
In the end, the seven newcomers who had never seen blood were naturally intimidated by the burly man's murderous aura. They were forced to obediently spend 200 points to buy a set of second-hand Wisp training equipment from the burly man's stall. Then, they fled the public market with their tails between their legs.
The burly man's name was Baron. He was 23 years old this year. He was a trainer who specialized in fighting Wisp training. He had been in the Rocket Corps for three years and had participated in at least ninety operations and battles, if not a hundred.
In fact, Baron had the strength to be promoted to a squad leader or even a squadron leader a long time ago. However, he did not like to be a leader and had always refused to be promoted.
In addition, he was also very careless. Relying on his powerful strength, he was also very arrogant and unsociable, so it was easy for him to offend people. As a result, he was still a Rocket Soldier until now.
Recently, Baron had lost a lot of money in gambling, so he was a little tight on money. Coincidentally, he remembered that this was the time when the fat sheep had just joined the army, so he took the opportunity to earn some extra money. The shabby Elf training tools on the street stall were bait that he used to attract the fat sheep who thought they were smart.
Baron's forceful selling was very effective. After deducting the cost of each set of training equipment that he bought at the price of 10 points, he had already earned 1330 points. It was simply too easy to earn points by slaughtering the newcomers.
However, as the saying goes, if one stands by the river, one's shoes will eventually get wet. It was not until he met the fearless Kaede Sato that his forceful selling finally met his Waterloo.
According to the Rocket Corps' internal rules, unless there was a betrayal by a member, they were absolutely not allowed to attack each other. If they violated the rules, they would be punished with the crime of betraying the organization.
Baron's forceful selling was naturally not against the rules. Now that his method of intimidation had failed, he naturally could not do anything to Kaede Sato.
Most importantly, Sato Kaede's fearless eyes gave Baron a sense of crisis. Baron was usually so arrogant, but he was still able to live a carefree life. In addition to his extraordinary strength, there was also his excellent eyesight. He knew who he could offend and who he couldn't.
Baron was naturally disdainful of the newcomers who were intimidated by his imposing manner. He was not afraid of the revenge of these cowards in the future. However, Kaede Sato was obviously different. With his eyesight, it was not difficult to see that Kaede Sato was very difficult to kill. As long as he was given some time, he would definitely become an outstanding trainer in the future.
Baron put himself in Kaede Sato's shoes again and asked himself if he could have done this at such a young age. The answer was that when he was 15 years old, he was still at the construction site and was at the mercy of others, living like a dog.
In the end, Baron concluded that it was unwise to offend Kaede Sato for a mere 200 points. He had to get to know him as soon as possible.
"Not bad, kid. What's your name? My name is Baron. Let's be friends. I'll give you this iron net and this set of training tools as a meeting gift." It was never too late to mend the pen after the sheep were lost. Baron naturally understood this principle. He immediately withdrew his imposing manner and revealed a simple and honest expression as he spoke to Kaede Sato.
After Baron withdrew his terrifying aura, Kaede Sato immediately breathed a sigh of relief. His body also stopped trembling. Then, when he saw the 180-degree change in Baron's attitude, his eyes revealed a hint of surprise.
However, Kaede Sato was quick-witted. He roughly understood what Baron was thinking by putting himself in Baron's shoes. The surprise in his eyes instantly disappeared.
"Thank you very much. These things are very useful to me. My name is Kaede Sato. I'm very happy to meet you, Baron senior. I'll be looking forward to your guidance in the future." After knowing Baron's thoughts, Kaede Sato also went with the flow and immediately replied very tactfully.
In the end, after a pleasant conversation with Baron, Kaede Sato not only bought the iron net and second-hand training tools without spending a single cent, but also obtained some very important information.
