Sending Beggars Away
Luo Sheng's face was a little pale, and his palms were sweating. Shui Qianyue beside him was also the same. She stood sluggishly in the same place, without the arrogance from before.
"What? You don't dare? "
Chu Xingyun took in the expressions of the two and sneered: "This stone platform shows five colors, and can emit a faint light to cover up the withering of the Five Colored Snow Lotus. Once the Five Colored Snow Lotus leaves the stone platform, everyone will find that this Five Colored Snow Lotus is withering. This is why you are willing to give such a low price."
"Nonsense, if you continue to talk nonsense, don't blame me for being impolite!" Luo Sheng was angry, and his body burst with anger. He was about to throw Chu Xingyun out.
Seeing this scene, the surrounding martial artists suddenly had an idea in their hearts.
"No wonder the Five Colored Snow Lotus was sold so cheaply. It turns out that there was something fishy going on. What opening auspicious? What losing money? It's all a lie. Fortunately, someone pointed it out."
"Deceiving people just after opening, this Luo Shui Commerce is really a good-for-nothing!"
The crowd cursed, making Luo Sheng and Shui Qianyue's faces become extremely ugly. However, they did not dare to make any moves. Private fights were strictly prohibited in the Trading Area, and no one was allowed to disobey.
What's more, this matter was originally their fault. If this matter was blown out of proportion, the Commerce would not be able to continue operating.
"Everyone!" At this time, Luo Sheng stood up, and quickly smiled apologetically: "This matter is actually a misunderstanding. Before this, I did not know that the Five Colored Snow Lotus had withered. If I knew, I would not deceive everyone like this."
"Is that so?"
Chu Xingyun frowned, and said with a strange smile: "So, didn't I do a good thing? Not only did I save people, but I also protected the reputation of your Luo Shui Commerce?"
"Yes … Yes." Luo Sheng's face twitched. Chu Xingyun's words just now were not to protect their reputation, but to push the Luoshui Trading Firm into the teeth of the storm.
"Since I have helped your Luo Shui Commerce, how are you going to thank me?" Chu Xingyun chuckled.
Luo Sheng's heart sank. He thought he had misheard.
Chu Xingyun had humiliated him in front of so many people, and now he was asking for a reward.
Crazy.
He felt like he was going crazy. He actually felt like he was being toyed with by Chu Xingyun.
Seeing Luo Sheng remain silent, Chu Xingyun rolled his eyes and said weakly, "A dignified Chamber of Commerce doesn't even have such a small gesture. It's really disappointing. I don't think the things sold inside are anything good. Let's go and look elsewhere."
Chu Xingyun deliberately raised his voice so that the surrounding martial artists could hear clearly. They originally had some distrust of the Luoshui Trading Firm. Being called out like this, they immediately scattered and walked away.
The black-clothed old man walked in front of Chu Xing Yun and thanked him profusely, "Many thanks to this young master. If it weren't for your righteous words, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to keep my old life."
"It's just a slight effort. Next time, you have to wipe your eyes and not be deceived by this kind of treacherous villain." As Chu Xingyun spoke, he glanced at Luo Sheng and Shui Qianyue with ridicule.
Those two people suddenly felt a burst of anger rush to their chests. If not for the ban, they would definitely have attacked with all their might and swallowed Chu Xingyun alive on the spot.
After Chu Xingyun's actions, even if the Luoshui Trading Firm continued to open, there would be no one who would come to support them!
"Let's close up for today. Later, I'll have a good talk with my father and see how we can restore our reputation." Luo Sheng sighed helplessly. Looking at the Five Coloured Snow Lotus in front of him, he felt annoyed. If not for this thing, he would not have fallen into such a situation.
"Big Brother, are you still selling this Snow Lotus?"
At this time, a charming voice entered Luo Sheng's ears.
He turned his head and found that the person who spoke was a young girl wearing a green dress. Her eyes were as bright as gems, blinking innocently.
"You clearly know that this Five Coloured Snow Lotus has already withered and contains a potent poison, yet you still want to buy it from me. Are you trying to make fun of us?" Shui Qianyue said in a strange voice. She was also very annoyed.
This Luoshui Grand Meet was jointly established by the Luo Family and the Shui Family, and the Shui Family spent a lot of effort on it.
But now, not even a day after it opened, it was boycotted by so many people. Even the reputation of the Luoshui Trading Firm had been ruined. Just thinking about the losses caused her heart to ache.
Luo Lan pouted and shook her head, "Big Sister, you've misunderstood me. I simply thought that this Snow Lotus was very beautiful and wanted to buy it home. It's not for eating."
As she spoke, Luo Lan followed Chu Xingyun's instructions and acted as if she had been wronged and was about to cry. Her big eyes sparkled as she turned around in disappointment.
"Wait a moment." Luo Sheng called out to Luo Lan and said resentfully, "Since you want it, I'll sell it to you. I'll give you a 40% discount. You can buy it for three thousand Spirit Stones."
"Three thousand Spirit Stones?" Luo Lan jumped in fright and pouted, "Can you make it cheaper? I only have fifty Spirit Stones."
"You want to buy the Five Coloured Snow Lotus for fifty Spirit Stones?" Luo Sheng let out a strange cry and sneered, "You'd better leave. This price isn't even enough to send a beggar away."
"Didn't that Big Brother say that the Five Coloured Snow Lotus has already withered? Not only is it useless, but it also contains a strong poison. If you leave it like this, it will be useless sooner or later." Luo Lan seemed to be a little angry as she stomped her feet and snorted.
Luo Sheng and Shui Qianyue exchanged glances, feeling a little uncomfortable in their hearts.
Indeed, the Five Coloured Snow Lotus was withered. Even if they brought it back, it would be useless. The scam just now had been exposed by Chu Xingyun. If they continued to deceive others, the Luo Family and the Shui Family would no longer be able to establish themselves in the Imperial City.
"Alright, fifty Spirit Stones is a deal." Luo Sheng let out a long sigh and handed the Five Coloured Snow Lotus to Luo Lan. If he could earn a little bit, then so be it.
Luo Lan straightforwardly handed over fifty Spirit Stones. Holding the Five Coloured Snow Lotus, she quickly disappeared into the crowd.
At this time, Chu Xingyun and the others were standing outside a shop. When they saw Luo Lan holding the Five Coloured Snow Lotus, they all let out a sigh. What a pure and innocent girl, she was led astray by Chu Xingyun just like that.
Tiger Chu looked at the Five Coloured Snow Lotus and asked doubtfully, "Young Master, didn't you just say that the Five Coloured Snow Lotus is withered? Not only is it useless, but it also contains a strong poison. If that's the case, why did you go through so much trouble to buy it from them?"
Everyone agreed. They also didn't know why Chu Xingyun did this. They even felt that the fifty Spirit Stones were a waste and there was no need to buy it.
