Chapter 1535 The first pot of gold

Lin Tao pulled Ma Long with a suspicious look on his face. The two of them were a little further away from the crowd. Ma Long said worriedly: "Brother Lin Tao, will that person come?"

To be honest, Lin Tao was not sure, and frowned deeply and said, "If he really wanted these things, he would definitely come to me on his own initiative."

Sure enough, not long after, a man suddenly patted Lin Tao on the shoulder. Lin Tao turned around and saw that the thin and thin bamboo pole bared his teeth and smiled, his skinny claws blocked his mouth, and said mysteriously: "Brother, I'm a little interested in your cinnamon, otherwise let's talk?"

It turned out that when the thin Zhu Ganzi saw Lin Tao and Ma Long leave the stall and discussing the sale of "cinnamon", he felt a little anxious. He was worried that these treasures would be bought first, so he hurriedly came up and interrupted the two of them.

Lin Tao was secretly happy, but his face showed a look of embarrassment: "This... I have already discussed with this customer just now and the deal is about to be completed."

When the thin Zhu Ganzi heard this, his eyebrows immediately stood up and said happily: "Isn't that the final deal not yet? What is the price you are discussing? We can discuss the price easily."

He said it very cautiously, only saying that the price can be discussed carefully, but he did not promise to give a higher price. If the final transaction price exceeded his expectations, he was ready to leave at any time.

Lin Tao was not sure about it, and didn't know how much this thing was worth, so he asked casually: "This guest, what you said makes sense. If you don't have a deal, you can still discuss everything. So what price are you going to give?"

The thin bamboo pole smiled, showed four fingers and said, "This number."

"How much does this damn number represent? Four sword coins or forty sword coins?" Lin Tao complained secretly in his heart, and started cursing directly in a hurry, but his face was calm. After two "cough cough", he gave Ma Long a wink.

Ma Long immediately understood what Lin Tao meant, his face suddenly fell down, which was longer than a donkey's face, and said, "If you want to trade, just speak human words clearly. What does it mean to show four fingers? Show me?"

This was said by Ma Long, and there was no sense of incongruity at all. Shou Zhugan just thought Ma Long was unhappy and was angry, so he was not angry or gave him a good look. He just smiled and shook his head, explaining: "Four hundred knives, do you think this price is OK?"

Ma Long looked at Lin Tao again. Lin Tao lowered his head calmly. He had already made hundreds of bends in his heart. Finally, he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, 400 coins are only 400 coins, one hand delivers the goods and the other hand pays."

Thin Zhugan was very happy and hurriedly went to touch the money. Lin Tao suddenly stopped him: "Slow down, I have something I have to know before I can agree to sell it to you."

The movements on the hand of Shou Zhugan stopped, and his face changed immediately, saying, "Brother, this thing that was said is like water splashed out, but it is not regretful."

Lin Tao rolled his eyes and said dissatisfiedly: "Who said I regret it? I just said that before I sell it to you, I want to know what you do with these cinnamons. If you do something bad and cause us any trouble in the future, we would rather not make money than do this business."

The thin bamboo pole said "Oh" and suddenly realized, "It turns out that it's because of this. Brother, don't worry, I just want to buy this thing, just to sell it to a group of old men. They are willing to pay high prices to buy such things. I will make a difference from it and make a living."

Suddenly, Shao Zhugan looked at Lin Tao cautiously: "But don't make any decisions about me, you know that I just make some money in the middle and it is impossible for you to know the information of my customers. Okay, now I've told you what I should say and what I shouldn't say. I'm honest enough, can I trade it, right?"

Lin Tao nodded with a smile, packed the monster's eyes and handed it to the thin bamboo pole. The thin bamboo pole took out a metal box with ancient patterns from his pocket. When he opened the box, a thick white and cold breath immediately spewed out of it. The box was filled with ice. He carefully put his eyes into the box.

From beginning to end, Lin Tao stared at the ice box tightly, and he was secretly surprised that this thing was simply a portable refrigerator.

Although I don’t know what the refrigeration principle is, it is always a magical thing. A person who can make such things must be a very powerful background. He may have to visit him well in the future. Maybe he is a time traveler?

When Shao Zhugan saw that Lin Tao was interested in his baby, he smiled and explained, "I got this thing by chance. I stayed by my side all the time. The temperature outside was as normal, but it was very cold inside, which was very suitable for preserving the freshness of things. How about it, it looks OK, right?"

He gently stroked the ice box with a smug expression on his face and said, "Although these cinnamons can be stored for a long time, for about three or four days, they are still placed in the box for a little more security. If you don't sell them to me, it may be difficult to take action if they rot in the future, right? Haha!"

Lin Tao shrugged and said, "There is always a way to take action, but then again, is this cinnamon of any other purpose?"

"Other uses..." Shou Zhugan lowered his head and thought for a while, and said hey: "You guys who took action don't know, how could I know? But I heard that this thing has a high nutritional value, but who can really eat it so disgusting? Do you think it's?"

When Shouzhuan left, he left a note with his temporary address on it and repeatedly instructed that if there were "cinnamon" in the future, he would still be willing to collect as much as he could.

The business was generally good. In the evening, most of the goods in Lin Tao had already taken action, leaving only a slightly tough broad sword and two guns with a little complete spear.

Lin Tao found a hemp rope and tied three things together for sale. He threw the goods before dark. The price of buying only one of the three defective products was equivalent to a 30% discount, which is the lowest price in the entire free trade city-state.

"Come and have a look. Buy one and get two free, three weapons are only at the price of one." Lin Tao shouted weakly, and he didn't expect anyone to want these three defective products.

In fact, strictly speaking, what he sells is not considered a flawed product. The quality and workmanship are excellent. Even if he sells it at a price higher than the market, he will never lose money. But now he is in a hurry to sell the goods, so he lowers the price a lot.

Even if he is so self-harm, people should not buy it or not. They all think that Lin Tao’s few are really “suspicious”.

"You three things really only cost one thing?" a boy asked weakly.

Lin Tao looked up and saw three teenagers in front of him. They raised their heads slightly and tried to hide the cowardice in their eyes. Lin Tao immediately saw their little thoughts, shook his head slowly and chuckled, and said seriously: "Buy one and get two for three things, are you interested?"

"Is this thing true? I heard others say it's fake." A young man mustered up the courage to question Lin Tao.

When Lin Tao heard this, he suddenly became a little angry. You guys, you suspected that it was fake, and they came to ask about the price? But Lin Tao is a qualified and well-educated person. He quickly suppressed his anger and forced a kind smile to the point, and said, "Of course it's true. Then again, even if this thing is fake, what else do you want at this price?"

After spending a day in the free trade city-state, Lin Tao gradually figured out the market here. As the saying goes, "If you read 300 Tang poems well, you will recite them even if you can't write poems." Lin Tao now knows more or less. Although the weapons he sells are all second-hand on the battlefield, because the price is far lower than the market price, the business is reasonable. Now he buys one and gets two free, which is almost a waste of free.

The boy still stubbornly asked foolishly: "Since you say it's fake, can you be cheaper?"

Lin Tao immediately showed a shā “re:n expression. The three teenagers suddenly had white faces, and they were so scared that they retreated in fear that they did not dare to put a single fart.

Lin Tao frowned. He sympathized with the weak, but he didn't like being played with like this. He waved his hand and said impatiently: "Just this price, if you like to buy, buy, if you don't like to buy, get out of here."

Seeing Lin Tao’s order to expel guests, the three young men were anxious and jumped up and down one by one, explaining repeatedly: “This brother…”

"Who is brother to you?"

"Brother, we really want these three things, but... but we don't bring enough money, so we want you to give us a little cheaper." The three teenagers were almost crying, and they all had sad faces.

Lin Tao glanced at the three of them lightly, raised his legs high, and said lightly: "I'll see how much money you have in your hands."

The three teenagers emptied their pockets and barely made up a handful of pieces of copper plates, but the price tags from Lin Tao were still a little different.

A young man suddenly pointed at his companion and scolded: "Okay, Zhang Bei, you can't bear to take it out, take off your shoes."

Zhang Bei's face turned red in an instant, hesitated and did not move. His hands were hanging weakly on both sides of his thighs. His companion did not say hello, and the cat went to take off Zhang Bei's shoes. Zhang Bei hurriedly couldn't stop it, and the shoes had been pulled down by his companion.

"Ah!" A strong smell of almost color spread out. His companion screamed and immediately fell to the ground, foaming and pumping out.

Zhang Bei blushed, picked up a few copper plates from his shoes, put them in front of Lin Tao, and muttered, "It's really not what I hid it on purpose, I said it all."

"Uh..." Lin Tao was stunned for a while, suddenly not wanting to touch the copper plates, "Okay, take away the things, but you are young, why do you need these weapons?"

Zhang Bei suddenly looked overjoyed, said a basket of words thanking each other, and then explained seriously: "We all practiced some martial arts when we were young, and we were ready to take these weapons to be mercenaries."

Hearing the word "mercenary", Lin Tao suddenly became interested and asked quickly: "There are mercenaries in this city?"

Zhang Bei blinked and said for granted: "Of course there is, and it is the largest gathering place for mercenaries in the southern part of the continent."
