I was forced to leave the world of immortal cultivation after being transformed into a loser.

Nie Hengzhou had never known about this situation. No wonder Gu Liyue asked where the stalls were last time.

Gu Liyue's actions seemed to have opened the door to a new world for him.

Gu Liyue looked at him thinking and asked, "You don't know, do you?"

Nie Hengzhou nodded.

"Come with me to buy some materials for refining weapons."

Gu Liyue suppressed her eagerness to try, thinking that she seemed to have forgotten herself just now, why was she walking around there holding Nie Hengzhou's arm?

He replied calmly, "Okay."

Nie Hengzhou brought Gu Liyue to a stall selling refining materials. He followed Gu Liyue's example and picked out some common materials, including some bronze ore and iron ore.

"Boss, what's the price of these two pieces of ore?"

"Two pieces together are forty spirit stones."

"Boss, do you have any black gold or red sun stone?"

Gu Liyue looked at him and felt funny. Was he copying the same thing she had just done?

The stall owner felt like he had a big customer and was hoping this order would earn him more money. This guy looked like he was going to be easily taken advantage of, and his attire showed he had no shortage of spirit stones. He also looked very superior, and it was obvious he wouldn't bargain.

"Yes, how much do you want?"

"I want two kilograms of black gold and red sun stone each. What's the price?"

"One jin of Xuanhei gold costs eight hundred spirit stones, and one jin of Chiyang stone costs two hundred spirit stones."

"Can I see the quality?"

"Of course, please wait a moment." After saying that, the stall owner took out two bags from his Qiankun bag and opened them for Nie Hengzhou to see.

Nie Hengzhou looked at the black gold and red sun stone carefully, then weighed them in his hands and felt that they were of good quality.

Nie Hengzhou turned to look at Gu Liyue. Gu Liyue knew he was unsure, so she moved closer to him and whispered, "All for 1,600."

Then, she thought that she could actually use telepathy, but she had forgotten it.

As Gu Liyue approached, Nie Hengzhou first caught a whiff of a sweet, refreshing fragrance. Then he felt her breath on his face, a slight tickle. His heartbeat quickened, and his head buzzed. He knew what Gu Liyue had said, but he couldn't hear it clearly.

He looked down at her.

Gu Liyue looked at his bewildered expression, took a step back, and said in a voice transmission, "All for one thousand six hundred."

The stall owner looked at these two figures who seemed like banished immortals, flirting with each other in front of him. Although he felt that he was being ignored and that these two people did not respect others very much, they were so good-looking and had noble temperaments that he found it pleasing to watch.

I thought this business deal would make a lot of money.

He asked, "How about it, sir? Do you want me to pack it for you?"

Nie Hengzhou said calmly, "It's too expensive, Boss. Let's take sixteen thousand for these four items together!"

The stall owner thought, was he wrong? Impossible. "No way, I didn't make any profit on 1,600 yuan, I even lost money."

Nie Hengzhou: "Forget it if it doesn't work. I don't need it urgently. I'll go over there and see if there's anything suitable."

As he said this, he took Gu Liyue's hand and walked away. He pricked up his ears to listen as he walked, and thought happily: "Finally, I got her hand."

Gu Liyue whispered, "Don't look back now. If you do, he'll think you've compromised."

The stall owner saw him walk a few steps without looking back. Although the price offered by the other party was not high, he could still make some money. If... he could make more.

I had no choice but to say: "Don't be in a hurry to leave, let's talk."

Nie Hengzhou stopped, turned around and said, "That's the price, no more price increases. If it works, it's a deal. If not, we'll leave."

The stall owner said, "If you add more, there's really no profit to be made."

Gu Liyue transmitted a message: "Hold steady. If he opens his mouth, it means he has something to gain."

Nie Hengzhou replied, "No, forget it."

Just as I turned around and was about to leave, the stall owner said, "Okay, okay, I'll sell it to you."

Nie Hengzhou pulled Gu Liyue back and heard Gu Liyue's voice transmission again: "Next, you have to watch carefully. Don't let him cheat on the weight or pass off inferior goods as good ones!"

Nie Hengzhou glanced at Gu Liyue, indicating that he understood.

Nie Hengzhou took the bag of Red Sun Stone and looked at it casually.

Place it next to the copper ore and iron ore, and watch the boss call it black gold.

The boss saw him staring at his scale and said, "Don't worry, it's weighed enough. Come back next time if you need anything."

He took the bag of black gold and flipped through it, only to find that the color wasn't right! Originally, black gold was a mixture of black and gold, but upon closer inspection, he saw some light gray mixed in.

Nie Hengzhou said coldly, "Boss, you're not doing business honestly. There are a lot of pebbles mixed in this black gold!"

"How could that be? Let me see."

The stall owner took the bag and looked at it. He couldn't deny it, so he said, "I must have taken the wrong bag just now. I mistook the bag of stones I had picked out for you as an empty bag to fill with black gold. I'm sorry! It was my fault."

"Be careful next time, otherwise they'll think you did it on purpose, and it'll be bad if you get caught by the government."

Nie Hengzhou thought to himself: It has to be Li Yue! If she hadn't reminded me, I would have suffered a huge loss this time.

After packing everything, I paid the spirit stones.

Nie Hengzhou deliberately reminded the stall owner, "Count the spirit stones carefully. If there are any excess or shortage, please sort them out in person."

The stall owner looked at the spirit stone with a grimace and said, "That's right."

I thought this man was someone who wouldn't bargain or inspect the goods, but I was wrong. This business wasn't profitable.

After buying things, the two walked a short distance and smiled at each other.

They walked back, chatting as they walked, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

Gu Liyue said in surprise: "You actually bought things without bargaining!"

"Yeah! I used to buy things in the store on the main street, but I couldn't bargain there. Later, I would occasionally come to the street stalls to buy materials, but no one told me I could bargain!"

Gu Liyue taught him some experience: "You mainly need to look at the boss's reaction. If he agrees to your offer immediately, it proves that he has made a lot of money.

If he asks you to come back and talk again, and wants you to raise the price, you should make a small profit.

If they ignore you or even yell at you, it means your offer is less than their cost, or even lower."

Nie Hengzhou listened attentively, glancing at Gu Liyue from time to time.

On the way back, they passed by the snack street. Nie Hengzhou asked, "Do you want to buy something else to eat?"

Gu Liyue looked at the snacks and said, "No, I'm not hungry now."

Nie Hengzhou had no choice but to take her to the medicine shop.

When they arrived at the medicine shop, Gu Liyue said goodbye to him. Nie Hengzhou wanted to stay in the shop for a while, but seeing Gu Liyue's expression, it seemed like she couldn't wait for him to leave, so he had to leave reluctantly.

As soon as Gu Liyue entered the store, she saw Aunt Yu was actually counting the bills. She greeted her, went to the room in the backyard, and then entered the space.

She had to plant the two spiritual herbs immediately, as she was worried that they would not survive if left for too long.
