"When I do business, I've always been honest! Since I've already made my offer, I won't go back on my words! "
The middle-aged man stroked his mustache, squinted his eyes and said, "What? Can't you afford it? "
"Xiaobei! Pay up! What are you standing there for? "Canopy Canopy thought he had taken advantage of the situation and hurriedly urged.
"Alright!" Chen nodded and said, "I will pay now! Give me the stuff first!"
"Heh … Are you afraid that I will lie to you?" The middle-aged man laughed coldly and passed the wooden box to Chen.
After making sure that there was nothing wrong with the Water Spirit Grass, Chen Xiaobei paid 100,000 high-grade Spiritual Stones.
The middle-aged man was a little surprised when he received the money, but he didn't say much.
On the other hand, Chen and Canopy left the Hundred Herb Hall with the Water Spirit Grass.
…
"Xiaobei? We got a great bargain! Why aren't you happy at all? "Canopy Canopy asked in confusion.
"Second Senior Brother! You are usually quite astute! Once you take advantage of me, your brain will go crazy! There's no such thing as a free lunch in this world! "
"Of course!" Canopy Canopy said proudly, "We just saved at least 300,000 high quality spirit stones. Isn't this a free super lunch?"
"Do you think that guy is an idiot?" Chen retorted.
"I think he's a bit silly!" Tian Peng nodded. "The average price of a Three-star Earth-God Herb is 400,000 superior-grade Spiritual Stones. If we had bargained with him just now, we might have been able to get a lower price! "
"I think you're the stupid one!"
Chen frowned and said, "That guy had shifty eyes and a mustache. He looks like a typical scammer! How could someone who's even more cunning than a ghost let himself suffer such a big loss? "
"Xiaobei, you're too paranoid …" Canopy Canopy pursed his lips and said, "The money has been paid and the goods have been taken. What else is there to worry about?"
"Stop right there! The two of you, stop right there! "
Right at this moment, a furious shout came from not far away.
A man in heavy metal armor and a pair of warriors with swords on their backs rushed over.
Chen's face turned cold and said, "Look! This is what I'm worried about! "
"This …" Canopy Canopy was stunned, his face full of surprise.
Soon, the group of soldiers surrounded Chen and Canopy.
This was on the street, and such a big commotion instantly attracted hundreds and thousands of onlookers.
The man in heavy armor stepped forward and shouted angrily, "You two thieves! You want to run after stealing something? "
"Steal?" Canopy Canopy immediately retorted, "Are you crazy? When have we ever stolen anything? "
At this moment, the man with the handlebar mustache came out from the crowd, pointed at Tian Peng and cursed, "Shameless dog thief! You stole the treasure of my Hundred Herb Hall! I saw it with my own eyes, and you still want to go back on your word? "
"Fuck! So that was how it was! You purposely set a trap for us! "Canopy Canopy wasn't stupid. He just liked to take advantage of others. The current situation had already explained everything.
The heavily armored man angrily shouted, "Bastard! Shopkeeper Wang was the victim! Who would set a trap for you? This general orders you to hand over the stolen goods immediately! Stop resisting and surrender! "
"You can't tell right from wrong!" Canopy Canopy's face was red with anger, and he said angrily, "We bought that water herb with Spiritual Stones! You're accusing us of stealing, and you're trying to frame us! "
"Dear fellow citizens! Dear customers! Why don't you be my judge! "
Shopkeeper Wang pretended to be innocent and shouted, "The water herb is the treasure of my Hundred Herb Hall. It was passed down to me from my grandfather's generation. Why would I sell it? That's impossible! "
When he said that, some of the elders nodded.
"That's right … The water herb is the treasure of the Hundred Herb Hall. Everyone in the city knows about it! There's no way Shopkeeper Wang would sell it! "
"It seems like those two young men are really thieves! They're too young, and they're not learning from good things! They should be locked up in jail and let them suffer! Only then will they know how to behave! "
"General Bao! Hurry up and arrest them! If we don't arrest these thieves, the city will not be peaceful! "
"Yes, yes, yes! Hurry up and arrest these two thieves! "
Since the older generation could prove that the water herb was the treasure of Hundred Herb Hall, the crowd naturally followed suit and clamored for them to be arrested!
"General Bao! You're the main city's law enforcement general! You must uphold justice for all the citizens here! "
Shopkeeper Wang pleaded with a wronged expression, "These two thieves must be repeat offenders! If you arrest them and send them to jail, you'll definitely be able to find other stolen goods! "
"Surnamed Wang! Don't you have any shame? "
Canopy Canopy's face turned red. The feeling of being wronged made him so depressed that he wanted to vomit blood, "You were the one who sold the water herb to us for a hundred thousand high grade Spiritual Stones, and now you're trying to harm us like this! I've never seen such a shameless thing in my life! "
"Listen! Everyone, listen! "
Shopkeeper Wang shouted with a wronged expression, "My Hundred Herb Hall's treasure! The water herb! Don't even mention a hundred thousand! Even if someone offered a million, I definitely wouldn't sell it! This kind of lie! Even a three year old wouldn't believe it! "
When he said that, the crowd all agreed.
"That's right! Any normal person would know the value of a Three-star Earth-God medicine. It's impossible to buy it with 100,000 yuan! "
"What a joke! That bastard actually said that he only spent 100,000 to buy the Water Spirit Grass! Don't you think before you brag? "
"You need brains to be a thief these days! You don't even know how to lie! How would he be able to show his face in public? One hundred thousand to buy a Water Spirit Grass? Why didn't you say you bought it for 10,000 yuan? "
Without a doubt, the price of one hundred thousand was ridiculously low. The crowd did not believe Canopy's words at all.
Everyone thought that Tian Peng was lying. They were even more convinced that Chen and Tian Peng were thieves!
"The eyes of the masses are sharp! The identities of these two thieves have been confirmed! "
General Bao grinned maliciously and said, "Men! Capture these two thieves and throw them into the dungeon. This general will interrogate them in detail later and strive to find more stolen goods! "
"Understood!"
All of a sudden, the Enforcers around them were fired up and charged at Chen and Canopy.
"I think I understand now!"
Canopy Canopy frowned. "That bastard Wang saw that we are foreigners, so he purposely sold the item to us at a low price. Then, he colluded with the Enforcer General to capture us. Once we're in the dungeon, he wants to take everything from us! What a vicious trap! What an evil heart! "
"Cut the crap! Arrest them! "
General Bao waved his hand impatiently.
"Understood!"
