Across Ranch Story: Friends of Mineral Town

It can be said that all the things Lin Xia brought out this time won Huo An's heart. The abacus in his mind was clacking. After he finally thought it through, he controlled his facial expression and looked at Lin Xia, ready to start negotiating the price.

However, he discovered that Lin Xia was happily eating and drinking with Zack as if nothing had happened, and was also discussing the situation at the fishing tackle shop in Pelican Town, constantly encouraging Zack.

"Zach, you really can go there to learn from them. The fishing tackle shop there is doing really well and has a booming business. There are a lot of people in the whole town who like fishing, unlike in Mineral Town, where it seems that there aren't many people who like fishing!"

"That's right!" Zach was also distressed. "Not to mention other people, even I don't really like fishing. I even gave you the fishing rod left by my friend before. So, am I not suitable for opening a fishing tackle store?"

"How could that be? People who open fishing tackle shops don't have to be good at fishing. As long as they do their homework and understand it, it's fine. You just need to prepare everything and provide it to people who like fishing!" Lin Xia hurriedly comforted Zach, "Besides, there will be a lot of tourists coming next year. How can you guarantee that people who come here won't want to fish after seeing such a great fishing scene?"

"Yeah~"

Finally, Zack was calmed down. Lin Xia wiped her sweat quietly. This was nonsense. No, it was really tiring to encourage an honest person.

Looking back, she found Huo An staring at her expectantly. Lin Xia was startled and asked quickly, "What do you want to do?"

"Hehe~ dear sister, look, these antiques you brought back this time look good to me, so I plan to accept them all. Look, give me a price? Don't be too harsh, okay? I have to eat too~"

Lin Xia took a sip of juice to calm herself down. To be honest, only Huo An had the means to export these antiques, and the others would probably just be stored in the warehouse.

After thinking about it, she decided to raise the price and pay it back when the time comes. She would raise the price first, and at least she would make enough money to build the villa.

So she said, "We've been friends for almost a year, I won't talk nonsense, 100 million each, if you want it, just take it, I won't look for anyone else."

Huo An immediately started to pay back the money: "You are too cruel, these 6 things are not worth eating or using, but you want 600 million from me. How long will it take me to save up to earn it back? Can you give me a discount~"

"You seem to have forgotten how much each of the tents you sold to me and my friends cost, right? And those tool sets and stuff. You said you had no money, and Zack almost laughed. Okay."

Zack, who was watching them with a smile: …

"When have you ever seen Zach not smile? It's normal for him to smile. These six things of yours are really unpopular. If it weren't for me, someone else wouldn't be able to appreciate them. Besides, no one would offer 6 million right away, right? 100 million is about right for the whole package, right?"

"Who said there's no one?" Lin Xia suddenly became angry. "The cheapest thing in the class costs 100 million, and it's just the useless 'Riddle Book' and 'All BGM'. Do you think these two things have any practical use?"

When Huo An heard this, he immediately stepped on his peers, showing no mercy: "That's right, these useless things are actually priced at 100 million. After you said that, how can we still learn from him, right, sister, let's not learn from him."

Lin Xia: ... The boomerang actually hit me, what a bad decision!

"No, since his things are so expensive, why don't I take these antiques to ask Ban, maybe he can give me a high price!" The more he thought about it, the more it made sense to him, and Lin Xia was obviously tempted.

This is terrible. Huo An looked at it anxiously and said, "Oh, my sister, why don't you know our business? There are only people who buy low and sell high, how can there be people who buy at high prices? Don't look for him, he is not honest, how can he be as honest as me! Don't be fooled by him, think about the wine you gave him, didn't you give it away without return?"

After hearing this, Lin Xia hesitated again, "Compare prices from different stores. Since you think the price is too high, I'll ask him again. It won't be a loss. I remember that he sets up a stall on the second floor of Dart's every Wednesday. If I calculate, it will be the day after tomorrow. Well, otherwise."

"Okay! 600 million, I'll take it!" Huo An made the decision immediately. He couldn't let this girl show it to that fat guy in Ban, otherwise it would definitely be gone forever!

"Um~Brother Huo, why don't you reconsider it? Isn't 600 million too much for you? Let me ask that guy, he should have a lot of money."

"Don't think about it. Just take the money. I'll take the things. I can't bear to see you fall into the trap of that unscrupulous businessman! There are not many people as honest as me now. So next time you have something good, remember to show it to me first. I'll help you keep an eye on it, okay?"

Seeing Huo An's earnest look, Lin Xia suppressed her smile and nodded seriously, indicating that she had remembered it and would show it to Brother Huo as soon as she had anything good.

Hehe, you are definitely a dishonest businessman, but you still say that you are honest. You are so shameless.

However, with an income of 600 million at once, plus the more than 700 million I had saved before, I can build a villa!

Although Huo An spent 600 million yuan at once and felt heartbroken, he thought about those antiques full of stories. When he resold them, he could easily make several times the profit!

This little girl is still a little naive. Fortunately, I fooled her. Otherwise, if she told the whole story to the class, it would be difficult to continue fooling her in the future!

Humph, that guy isn't a good person either, maybe his price is even lower than mine? Oh, I'll have to give it a try next time.

Lin Xia didn't know that Huo An had been making plans in his mind. Now that she had the money to build a villa, she would have nothing to worry about and went back to eating and drinking.

Zach has always been indifferent to the direct confrontation between Huo An and Lin Xia. Seeing that the two had already reached an agreement, he began to talk to Lin Xia about whether it was difficult to find these ancient artifacts in Pelican Town.

When Huo An heard this, his ears immediately pricked up.

Lin Xia didn't talk nonsense and basically told the truth: "In fact, there are quite a few ancient artifacts there, but a large part of them have to be found by killing monsters, and the monsters become more dangerous as the level of the mine goes down. And there is no 100% guarantee that they will be found.

For example, the dwarf scroll I sold to Brother Huo this time is only one of them. It is said that the remaining scrolls can only be found in the lower mining layers. This time, Gray and I only went down to the 30th floor and did not dare to go any lower.

Moreover, everything there tests luck and character. Some people are unlucky, they fall when walking, their fishing is rubbish, and they can't even find the stairs to go down the mine!"

The two were very frightened after hearing this. Huo An quickly calmed down and thought that his character had never been very good. He decided not to dream of going treasure hunting by himself and should just be a middleman.
