"Is there such a saying?" Fina was stunned, obviously not understanding what was said.

“Let’s say you wanted to buy a dress worth ten gold coins, but because you felt bad about spending the money, you didn’t buy it, and then you accidentally got injured and spent the ten gold coins.

This kind of thing isn't inevitable, so you don't have to worry too much. You'll definitely realize when you need to spend a lot of money, so just be careful."

Tia wanted Fina to relax, after all, one cannot throw the baby out with the bathwater.

"Okay, but that person may not be very accurate in her calculations. What if she is just talking nonsense to scare us?" Fina thought so in her heart and put the matter behind her.

"It's always better to be careful." Tia thought that the old woman must have some strength to be able to catch up with them easily, and she must not be a liar who spread rumors and cheated people.

But Fina was getting impatient. "Okay, okay, let's not talk about her anymore. Is there anywhere else you want to go?"

"I rarely go shopping, so I don't know what's fun to do there. I haven't been missing anything lately. Let's continue shopping from where we just went."

"It seems like you're busy all day long." Fina shook her head. "Why do you make yourself so tired?"

"Everyone has their own pursuits! Look at that thing!" Tia said, pointing to a novel little gadget on the side.

Fina's attention was quickly drawn to it. "Look at this thing! This flower is really strange! This is the first time I've seen a black flower."

"Aren't flowers of this color common?" Tia was used to seeing the black roses next to Jesus, so she was accustomed to black flowers.

"Where did you see them? I remember I didn't see any black flowers in your house when I went to the party last time?" Fina asked curiously.

"Of course I saw it in a book!" Tia laughed, then quickly picked up the black flower.

"You two have taken a fancy to this flower, haven't you? You have a very good eye. This flower has been specially treated. I just need to sprinkle a little water on it, and it will spontaneously combust!"

As the vendor spoke, he picked up a flower and demonstrated it.

The vendor picked up a flower, then took a small spray bottle and sprayed some water on the flower, and a blue-purple flame ignited on the flower.

Tia suddenly thought of the burning red rose she had seen on a short video platform before, which was rubbed on the ground and then held up by someone on a skateboard with one foot.

"You still need to spray some water, but anyone with fire magic can do it without these things." Fina shook her head, obviously not being fooled.

"Miss, the things you described are bound to happen, but flowers like this that spontaneously combust with just a little water are unique." The vendor showed no sign of panic. "Aren't these uncommon things the most rare things in the world?"

Fina thought about it again and seemed to think that was the case.

"How much does a flower like this cost?"

"One gold coin." The vendor stretched out his hand and made a number.

"Wow! Tia, the old lady was right!" Fina immediately covered her mouth and said in amazement.

Tia looked at the confused vendor and subconsciously wanted to laugh.

"No way, look at these flowers, they will be gone once burned, and he actually dared to sell them to me for a gold coin!" Fina thought that the old woman's calculation was indeed correct. If she didn't pay attention and bought a lot of them, her money would be gone.

The vendor's facial expression suddenly became strange. These two people looked like noble ladies, so he was willing to spend a flower to attract them to buy.

Although this flower is indeed not worth a gold coin, it still costs money, okay?

"How long can this flower be kept?" Tia suddenly had an idea and asked proactively.

"This..." The vendor hesitated, worried the two were teasing him, but he still took out a box. "As long as you keep it in this box, it will keep for a month. But I'll only give you this box if you buy at least nine sticks."

"Can this box only be used to store this flower?" Tia was a little curious. Looking at the box, she knew that apart from everlasting flowers, she had never heard of any other flowers that could last for a month.

"Of course not. As long as fresh plants are placed in this box, they can be preserved for a month. Of course, it just has no magic. If it had magic, the effect might be reduced." The vendor said as he took out several more such boxes.

Tia looked at the box thoughtfully. If this thing really had the magical effect that this person said, if it were a little bigger...

"If you don't want to buy the nine flowers, I can sell you this box alone, but such a box costs three gold coins." The stall owner saw that Tia began to hesitate and felt a little unsure.

"How about nine gold coins for nine flowers and two boxes like this?"

"This..." The vendor was a little embarrassed, but until now no one had bought so many at once, and he had bought a lot of flowers.

"People only buy one or two flowers at most, and there's no need for the box. If you give me an extra box, I'll buy you so many flowers. You won't lose out if you come."

As Tia spoke, she looked at Fina, who was anxious to leave.

"Okay." The vendor hesitated for a moment, but finally agreed.

"Then give me the thing." Tia said as she handed the gold coins in her hand to the vendor, "But where did you buy this box? I've never heard of anyone making this thing!"

"This box was made by my father. He said these flowers are too delicate and he was afraid that I would lose all of them, so he made a few boxes for me to put these flowers in. He was also afraid of customers like you, so he made me a few small boxes." After the vendor took the money, he opened his mouth and his whole body was smiling.

"You will sell flowers here often, right?" Tia reached out and took the box.

"Tia! I think the old lady was wrong, and you are the one who lost a lot of money!" Fina felt like she was watching Tia being cheated. How come she couldn't figure it out now when she was so smart just now?

"Of course. I look forward to your next visit." The vendor smiled and nodded. It seemed that this noble lady might become a repeat customer in the future.

"Okay, it's okay. This thing is quite novel, so it doesn't matter if I buy one. Don't you like it? I'll give you one." Tia said as she opened the box and gave one of the flowers to Fina.
