After eavesdropping for a while, the Dragonoid on the roof quietly left. As soon as he left, Jiang Fei gave Wu Rui a look.
"Phew … Master, he left?" Wu Rui breathed a sigh of relief.
"Yeah!" Jiang Fei nodded.
"Who left? What were you guys talking about just now? Why did you suddenly change the topic? "Bi Wei looked confused.
"Someone was eavesdropping on us just now," Jiang Fei explained.
"Oh!" Bi Wei nodded.
"It seems that I have been too careless for the past two days. I didn't even know that I was being watched!" Jiang Fei took a deep breath and said.
"Master, are you still going to the Grinding Corner Shop tomorrow?" Wu Rui asked.
"Yes!" Jiang Fei nodded.
"But didn't they notice you?" Wu Rui asked.
"The more they notice, the more I have to go!" Jiang Fei smiled, then said to Su Bing and Su Xuan, "Tomorrow, the two of you will go with me. If you see any shops, go in and buy Fantasy Stones. Understood?"
"Understood, master!" Su Bing and Su Xuan nodded.
"Wu Rui, after we leave tomorrow, spread the news about the Fantasy Stones exchanging for medicinal pills," Jiang Fei turned to Wu Rui and said.
"Yes, master!" Wu Rui nodded.
"Alright, everyone go and rest!" Jiang Fei waved his hand and said.
"Yes! Master! "
"Yes! Master! "
"Then I'll go back to sleep."
Soon, only Jiang Fei was left in the house. He sat cross-legged on the bed and entered a meditative state. For cultivators, meditation was the best rest.
The next morning, Jiang Fei went out with Su Bing and Su Xuan. The three of them went their separate ways on the street. Jiang Fei went straight to the street where the Grinding Corner Shop was located, while Su Bing and Su Xuan went to the other two streets.
As soon as Jiang Fei and the others left, someone quietly followed them. Although the Dragonoid had eavesdropped on Jiang Fei and the others last night and did not find any clues, he was still worried and continued to send people to monitor Jiang Fei and the others.
"Boss, do you have Fantasy Stones here?" Su Bing entered a shop.
"No …" The boss said.
"Oh! Then please help me keep some. We will buy them at a high price later! "Su Bing said and turned to leave.
"What's wrong with you? Why do you need illusion stones? A toy for a child? "The boss looked at Su Bing's back and muttered to himself.
"Is he really buying Fantasy Stones?" The two people in charge of tailing Su Bing looked at each other and continued to follow.
Along the way, Su Bing would enter every shop he came across. When he came across a stall, he would ask questions. His only goal was to collect Illusion Stones!
"It seems like this group of people is really looking for illusion stones …" The two people watching them looked at each other.
…
The person following Su Xuan also got the same result. Su Xuan also entered every shop she came across. She didn't want anything else but Fantasy Stones. Along the way, she asked around and got two Fantasy Stones.
"Fifteen Golden Essence Stones for one Illusion Stone? Are these people crazy? " One of the people monitoring Su Xuan saw that she really bought the illusion stone and looked at his companion in disbelief.
"I think I have one too. Let's sell it to her later. That's half a year's salary for us!" Another stalker sighed.
"Yes! I won't keep mine. It's useless anyway. If I can exchange it for fifteen Golden Essence Stones, this year will be much easier! "
"Yeah, we might even have a fat year!"
The two stalkers looked at each other. They could see the joy in each other's eyes. They were the lowest level of underlings and usually did not have a good life.
…
At the same time, Jiang Fei finally walked into the Frosted Corner Shop after visiting more than a dozen shops.
Before entering the shop, Jiang Fei had already activated Mind Reading. If anyone tried to harm him, he would know in advance.
"Yo! Sir, how may I help you? "The shop assistant immediately came up to him.
"Yeah, just looking around …" Jiang Fei strolled to the counter.
"What's up, sir? What do you like?" The assistant asked.
"Do you have illusion stones?" Jiang Fei asked. He knew that the stalker was not far behind him.
"Illusion Stone? I really don't know about that. I'll ask for you! "The assistant turned around and went into the back of the shop.
A moment later, the assistant came out with a shopkeeper.
"Sir, are you looking for illusion stones?" The shopkeeper asked.
"That's right! Do you have them? "Jiang Fei asked.
"Hehe, this small shop does have them. However, this thing is not for sale," the shopkeeper said.
"Not for sale?" Jiang Fei raised his eyebrows.
"What are you talking about? We are open for business. As long as the shop has it, there's nothing we won't sell!" The shopkeeper said.
"Since you've said that, are you going to sell it or not?" Jiang Fei was confused by the shopkeeper.
"This illusion stone is not for sale. It's something that the owner uses to close the shop. However, since you're here today, it means that we're fated. If it's suitable, I'll make the decision on behalf of the owner and sell this treasure to you." The shopkeeper smiled. He was a standard businessman. Everything he said was business. His goal was nothing more than to raise the price of the product.
"Name your price," Jiang Fei said.
"Hmm … This illusion stone was not easy for our owner. I can't really tell you the price. Sir, why don't you name a price? If it's suitable, I'll make the decision on behalf of the owner and let you have the treasure." The shopkeeper did not know how much he wanted. After all, illusion stones were rarely sold and rarely bought.
"Ten Adamantine Stones!" Jiang Fei named a price.
"This …" The shopkeeper hesitated for a moment. Jiang Fei's price was not too high, but it was not low either. A useless stone could be sold for ten Adamantine Stones. This was already very good. However, as the saying goes, 'Unscrupulous Businessmen', when the shopkeeper saw that Jiang Fei wanted ten Adamantine Stones, he could not just give in easily.
"What? You think it's too little? "Jiang Fei said unhappily.
"It's not too little. The key is that your price is too coincidental. Our owner bought it for ten Adamantine Stones. If I give it to you at the original price, I won't be able to explain it to the owner …" The shopkeeper pretended to be troubled.
"How much do you want then?" Jiang Fei asked coldly.
"How about this. You don't have to pay too much. Just give me five more so that I can explain it to the owner!" The shopkeeper was talking to Jiang Fei, but he immediately increased the price by fifty percent.
"Alright, that's it." Jiang Fei did not bother to bargain. After all, when he bought it previously, it was fifteen Ice Crystals for a Illusion Stone. Now, it was just an Adamantine Stone.
"Alright! I can tell that you're a straightforward person! "The shopkeeper immediately took out the illusion stone and took the Adamantine Stone from Jiang Fei's hand.
