After entering the medicinal shop, Lin Tian realized that he was still thinking too simply. In this world, not everyone had eyes.
For example, the person in front of him was definitely blind.
"This thing of yours is at most 2,000 spirit ores. I don't have any more." The shopkeeper held back his saliva that was about to flow out and pretended to be calm.
"2,000 spirit ores?"
Hearing this, the corner of Lin Tian's mouth could not help but twitch. He then asked, "2,000 supreme-grade spirit ores or high-grade spirit ores?"
Between spirit ores, due to the issue of purity, there was also a clear division of grades. There were a total of 4 grades. The lowest grade was the low-grade spirit ores, followed by the middle-grade, high-grade, and supreme-grade.
Among them, the ratio was 10 to 1.
Of course, there were also exceptions, such as the supreme-grade spirit ores.
The spiritual Qi contained in such spirit ores was extremely pure and was very suitable for cultivation. Each piece was one in ten thousand and was rare. Even if there were, no one would easily use it as currency.
Therefore, most of the spirit ores that were commonly seen on the market were low-grade, middle-grade, and high-grade spirit ores.
"Of course, it's 2,000 …"
The shopkeeper had just opened his mouth when he heard Lin Tian's words, but when he saw Lin Tian's frail appearance, he could not help but change the topic. He said, "Of course it's two thousand mid grade spirit stones. It's just a few drops of spirit liquid. It's not like it's some Sage Treasured Medicine.
"2,000 middle-grade spirit ores? Go and send a beggar away! "
Lin Tian did not think about it. He immediately put away the jade bottle on the table and prepared to leave. 2,000 middle-grade spirit ores was only 20,000 low-grade spirit ores if converted to the common currency.
As for his drop of immortal wine, it could at least extend the life of a Ruler who had exhausted his lifespan by another year.
One could imagine the value of it.
Lin Tian's expected price was more than 10,000 supreme-grade spirit ores.
The shopkeeper was ruthless. He directly lowered the price to 2,000 middle-grade spirit ores.
'Hehe, does he really think I'm a fool?'
Seeing that Lin Tian was about to turn around and leave, the shopkeeper hurriedly shouted, "Young Master, wait."
As he spoke, he gave the guards at the door a look.
Immediately, two burly men stood at the door with cold expressions. Under the shopkeeper's signal, they closed the door on the spot.
Lin Tian's footsteps paused. He turned around and looked at the shopkeeper. With a calm gaze, he asked, "What is the meaning of this?"
"Hehehe, little brother, we can negotiate the price …"
The shopkeeper of the medicine store laughed dryly as he looked at Lin Tian. The greed in his eyes could not be concealed. He was not a fool. He clearly knew how valuable the immortal brew in the jade bottle in Lin Tian's hand was.
However, to ask him to fork out a high price to buy it from an unfamiliar and weak young man …
Haha, naive!
"Little brother, how much do you think it should be?"
The shopkeeper asked with a kind expression.
However, the trace of viciousness hidden in his eyes could not be hidden from Lin Tian.
"There's a total of four drops of spirit liquid here, and each drop costs five thousand."
Lin Tian said indifferently.
Hearing this, a trace of sarcasm flashed in the shopkeeper's eyes. However, he continued to ask kindly, "For the five thousand, do you want upper-grade spirit stones or supreme-grade spirit stones?"
"Supreme-Grade, of course." Lin Tian looked askance at the shopkeeper as if he was looking at an idiot.
"Supreme-grade …"
Hearing this, the shopkeeper's eyes narrowed slightly. Then, he smiled and said, "Hehe, actually, twenty thousand supreme-grade spirit stones is not impossible, but …"
Speaking of this, the shopkeeper's smile gradually disappeared.
He looked at Lin Tian with disdain and said sarcastically, "So many spirit stones, can you take it away?"
"This is not something you should worry about."
Lin Tian didn't seem to notice that the shopkeeper was harboring evil intentions. He said casually, "If you're willing to buy, then pay. If you're not willing to buy, I'll just find another shop."
"Next shop?"
Hearing this, the shopkeeper winked at the two guards guarding here. The two immediately understood and walked over. The spiritual power in their bodies quietly circulated, and the faint sound of a tsunami could be heard.
Obviously, without exception, these two were cultivators of the Spirit Sea Realm.
One in front and one behind, they instantly locked Lin Tian's hands.
"Shopkeeper, what do you mean by this?" Lin Tian narrowed his eyes and asked again.
"Nothing, I just want you to leave the thing."
The shopkeeper did not bother to feign civility with Lin Tian anymore and sneered.
Hearing this, Lin Tian's expression did not change. He smiled faintly and said, "But what if I say no?"
"Hmm?"
Hearing this, the shopkeeper could not help but look up at Lin Tian. A trace of doubt flashed in his eyes. He did not know where this kid, who could not withstand a single blow and was taken down by them in an instant, got his confidence.
Then, he sneered and said, "Hehe, look at you, you must have just entered the city, right?"
Lin Tian did not deny it and acquiesced.
"No wonder …"
Seeing this, the disdain in the shopkeeper's eyes increased. He sneered and continued, "I'm not afraid to tell you, this shop is the property of the Wang Family."
"Wang Family? The head of the Five Great Families of Sky Snow City? "
Hearing this, Lin Tian raised his eyebrows.
Although it was his first time in Sky Snow City, he had learned a lot about this city from Zhang Ziyi and Xiao Cui. Naturally, he knew what kind of existence the Wang Family of Sky Snow City was.
Hearing Lin Tian's words, the shopkeeper was a little surprised. He did not expect Lin Tian to know about it. Soon after, pride rose from his heart and he said proudly, "That's right, it's the Wang Family!"
"How about it, are you scared?"
The shopkeeper said proudly, "If you are, then hand over the thing obediently. Don't force us to use force. Otherwise, you know the consequences."
Saying this, he sneered twice. The threat in his words was self-evident.
If it were not for the fact that they were causing trouble here and the fact that their Wang Family Medicine Shop was too conspicuous, the shopkeeper was worried that if Lin Tian resisted forcefully, it would attract the attention of others and cause them to lose their reputation. Otherwise, he would have already given the order to kill and seize the treasure. Why would he waste so much time talking to Lin Tian?
"Sorry, I don't know the consequences."
However, Lin Tian was clearly not as tactful as the shopkeeper had imagined. He shook his head and said softly, "But I hate it when people threaten me …"
Hearing this, the shopkeeper was stunned. Then, he could not help but laugh, "Hahahaha, kid, do you not understand your current situation?"
"Today, I want to threaten you. What can you do?" He looked at Lin Tian with disdain, his face filled with mockery. He had already lost his patience as he coldly called out to the two burly guards, "Go and snatch the things for me. If you dare to make a sound …"
Saying this, the shopkeeper's eyes turned cold and he made a gesture of slitting his throat.
Hearing this, the two burly men nodded at the same time.
Then, they grabbed the jade bottle in Lin Tian's hand.
"Why bother?"
Seeing this, Lin Tian sighed softly. A trace of helplessness flashed in his eyes.
He only wanted to make a deal. Why did these people have to force him to make a move?
