"Right, do you have Frigid Sun Grass here?"
Shaking his head, Zhang Xuan tossed aside the random thoughts in his mind and asked.
This stall not only sells miscellaneous items, it also sells medicinal herbs.
After browsing through the books in the Compendium Pavilion, he already knew the solution to Zhao Ya's problem. As a Pure Yin Body, she should cultivate a gentle and neutral cultivation technique. That way, she would be able to solve the problem of the accumulation of yin energy!
However, she has already cultivated the Pure Yin Body Technique for such a long time and her meridians have already adapted to it. If she were to suddenly change her cultivation, she might be severely injured, causing her cultivation to plummet. In order to prevent this from happening, he had to make preparations beforehand!
One of them was to nourish her meridians with medicinal herbs!
Frigid Sun Grass grows in cold places, but it loves sunlight. The spiritual energy within it clashed with heat and cold, resulting in the fusion of yin and yang. It was the best choice for nourishing her meridians. Since he was already in the market, he decided to ask about it.
"Frigid Sun Grass? You sure are asking coincidentally. I'm not bragging, but in the entire Tianyu Market, I dare to guarantee that I am the only one who has such a thing. I went to Tianxuan Forest a few days ago and plucked it from a dangerous area. There are a total of ten stalks and each stalk costs a hundred gold coins. How many do you want? "
The stall owner smiled. He turned around and took out a box. Opening it, there were a few bright-colored plants lying inside.
Red roots, white flowers, and leaves.
"Let me take a look first!"
Zhang Xuan only knew of Frigid Sun Grass from books, so he didn't recognize it. Reaching out, he took out a stalk and placed it in his palm.
Weng!
The library vibrated and a book appeared.
"Frigid Sun Grass, plucked from a nameless valley 200km from Tianxuan Forest. Aged two years... Flaws..."
The name of the medicinal herb, its origin and various flaws were written on the book.
"It's Frigid Sun Grass, that fellow didn't lie to me!"
Seeing that the name on the book was correct, Zhang Xuan knew that the other party wasn't lying to him. This was a real medicinal herb. Nodding his head, he was about to speak when his eyes suddenly fell on the innermost part of the box.
"Why does this stalk of Frigid Sun Grass look a little withered? Could it be that you picked it wrongly and killed it? "
Picking medicinal herbs required correct methods. If the method was wrong, it would be hard to preserve the medicinal properties of the herb and the price would be reduced.
The stalk of Frigid Sun Grass he was talking about was yellow and thin. It looked like it had not matured yet. Furthermore, it did not have the slightest bit of color. It was drooping and looked like it would dry up at any moment.
"Young Master, you must be joking. This is what I do for a living. How could I be mistaken? This medicinal herb isn't very good to begin with. It was already like this when I picked it. If you want it, I'll give you half price. You can have it for 50 gold coins! "
The stall owner said.
"Yes!"
Zhang Xuan then picked up the withered stalk of Frigid Sun Grass.
Weng!
"Frigid Sun Mother Grass, the root of all other Frigid Sun Grass. Plucked from a nameless valley 200km from Tianxuan Forest. Aged 15 years..." Flipping open the book, Zhang Xuan saw the name and records written on it.
"Frigid Sun Mother Grass?" Zhang Xuan's eyes lit up.
He had seen this item in a book before, and it was extremely precious. It was the root of the Frigid Sun Grass, and if he were to use it as a concoction, the effect would be at least ten times that of the latter!
Who would have thought that he would come across such an item when he was casually buying Frigid Sun Grass. Furthermore, it was 15 years old. Just this alone was worth a fortune!
If Zhao Ya were to use the Frigid Sun Grass to nourish her meridians, she would have to use many means to maintain it before she could change her cultivation technique. However, with this stalk of Frigid Sun Mother Grass, this problem could be easily solved. Even if she didn't use any other means, it wouldn't be too much of a problem!
This was definitely the most suitable medicinal herb for Zhao Ya!
"Wrap this stalk up for me!"
Despite his agitation, Zhang Xuan didn't show it on his face. He passed it over to the stall owner casually.
If the other party were to know that this was a stalk of Frigid Sun Grass and not a sickly one, the price would probably increase by ten times. Furthermore, he might not even be able to buy it!
As a youngster who had been educated in the modern world, he wouldn't allow himself to be taken advantage of.
"50 gold coins!"
Seeing how well-dressed the youngster was, the stall owner thought that he would fork out a huge sum to buy a few stalks of Frigid Sun Grass. He didn't expect that he would only buy a sickly one. Curling his lips, the stall owner wrapped the stalk up casually. The enthusiasm from before was gone.
Even if one were to sell something, one had to look at the person involved. The person before him wasn't even willing to buy a good medicinal herb, so he was definitely a poor fellow. It would only be a waste of his time.
"Alright!"
Receiving the medicinal herb, Zhang Xuan reached into his pocket and an awkward expression appeared on his face.
He had been thinking about the matter regarding the library previously and had forgotten about the matter of money … His previous self was a low-level teacher and his salary was already low. Furthermore, due to the fact that he scored a zero in the Teacher Qualification Examination, a huge amount of money was deducted … To be honest, he didn't even have 10 gold coins in his pocket, needless to say, 50 gold coins!
"What's wrong?" Seeing the peculiar expression on his face, the stall owner looked over.
"Cough cough, can you … sell it to me for 8 gold coins?" Zhang Xuan took out the coins in his pocket and counted them carefully. There were only 8 gold coins.
"8 gold coins? You must be dreaming! You didn't bring any money with you, so everything you buy is useless … "
Seeing the few coins in the other party's palm, the stall owner nearly fell to the ground.
He had seen stingy people before, but he had never seen such a stingy person before!
You want to buy the Frigid Sun Grass with just 8 gold coins? You must be dreaming! Even if this stalk is sick, I can't possibly sell it!
Snatching the medicinal herb, he waved his hands impatiently, "If you don't have money, leave. I don't have the time to waste on you!"
"Cough cough! I didn't bring any money with me, but are you sure you don't want to sell it to me? "
Seeing the other party's attitude, Zhang Xuan shook his head.
"Of course. Even if this stalk of Frigid Sun Grass doesn't look good, its medicinal properties are still there. Even if it is of poor quality, it can still be sold for 30 to 40 gold coins. Yet, you only want 8 gold coins? You must be joking! Hurry up and scram, or else I will call the enforcers! "
Seeing how this penniless fellow still refuses to leave, the stall owner waved his hands furiously.
In order to prevent forced transactions and troublemakers, large-scale shopping malls have specialized enforcers and patrol teams. With just a call, they would rush over. Even if you are a Fighter 5-dan Dingli realm expert, you would be chased out immediately!
Furthermore, going against the enforcers is equivalent to going against the entire shopping malls. Most people don't have the guts to do so.
Seeing how this fellow refuses to leave even though he doesn't have money, the stall owner determined that he is causing trouble.
"Don't call the enforcers, I really want to buy it!" Zhang Xuan interrupted his words. With a calm expression, he chuckled lightly, "Even though I don't have money, I am not here to cause trouble. Do you believe that as long as I open my mouth, not only will you willingly sell it to me, you might even give it to me for free?"
"For free? Are you still dreaming? "
Not expecting this penniless fellow to say such words, the stall owner burst into laughter. He looked at the young man before him as though he was looking at an idiot, "If I can really give it to you for free, I will call you grandfather!"
In his view, this fellow is a retard. Not only did he not bring any money, he even thinks that he will give it to him for free...
Am I insane? Why should I give it to you?
Who do you think you are!
"Call me grandfather? There's no need for that! " Zhang Xuan shook his head and looked at the other party with a smile, "If I say that you will give it to me for free, then you will give it to me for free. If you don't believe me... take two steps... cough cough, let's see how you do it!"
