With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods

Chapter 664: Hidden treasures



As he walked around, he could see that there were quite a few people selling things in this place.

There were many different stalls that were selling different things, but these things didn't seem like they were that great.

These were basic things that most sects would have that they were selling.

But if one thought about it, it seemed normal.

After all, these sects might have gathered for the tournament, but that didn't mean that they were allies. They wouldn't want to sell good things to people that could be future enemies.

So they were just selling the most basic things to have a stall and gather information.

Or at least that was how it was for normal people.

It was different for Lin Fan since he had something that no one else had.

His Appraisal Eyes were moving across the various stalls, looking for different things that no one else paid attention to. But of course, there was a reason why no one else paid attention to these things.

These were items that were very battered looking and didn't seem to hold any value.

There weren't even any spiritual energy fluctuations coming from these things, so no one thought that they were anything good.

The only reason why they were even in these stalls in the first place was because they were there to fill up the space. They were there to act as placeholders so that people wouldn't find these stalls too empty.

So these were things that people couldn't see through and regarded as trash.

But in the Appraisal Eyes of Lin Fan, it was a hoard of treasures.

Though there were indeed some things that were just trash.

It wasn't as if everything that was broken down would be a treasure.

Still, there were plenty of things for Lin Fan to choose from that he didn't need to care if there were some things that weren't as good.

As he looked around, he could see the various items that were there for the picking and he started thinking about which ones to get.

It would be too suspicious if he got them all, so he could only choose a few to take.

In the end, Lin Fan found his marks and went for them.

The first one that he went for was a small round stone that seemed like it was nothing special. In fact, it was completely black and almost looked like it was a pile of shit, but one could still tell that it was a rock instead of actual feces.

When he came over to the stall, the one that was running it greeted him with a smile.

"This brother, is there anything that you're interested in from our stall?" It was a handsome middle aged man who came forward to talk to Lin Fan.

Lin Fan gave a nod before pointing at one of the bottles of pills that were on the side.

When the handsome middle aged man saw this, he said with a smile, "Ah, you have a good eye. This is our best selling product, so you should buy it fast before it sells out."

The 'best selling product' that he was talking about was just a bottle of Foundation Breakthrough Pills.

For Qi Gathering Realm Cultivators, these things were necessary, but for anyone that was higher than the Qi Gathering Realm, these things were useless. They were naturally useless for Lin Fan.

However, there were enough disciples here that were in the Qi Gathering Realm that these Foundation Pills still sold well.

Not to mention, Lin Fan could see that the quality of this Foundation Breakthrough Pill was better than most, so it wasn't strange if people bought them from this stall.

Lin Fan just gave a casual nod before simply saying, "How much?"

"This brother, we're having a special deal today. It's only twenty spirit stones."

Lin Fan couldn't help knitting his brows when he heard this.

After all, the last time that he had seen a set of Foundation Breakthrough Pills being sold was at the auction in Inferno City.

Back then, the final price for the Foundation Breakthrough Pills had been twenty two spirit stones and that was in an auction setting. The starting price for the Foundation Breakthrough Pills had been five spirit stones.

Even if this was cheaper than a normal bottle of Foundation Breakthrough Pills, it should cost no more than ten spirit stones.

So it was clear that this person was ripping him off.

Seeing the way that Lin Fan looked, the handsome middle aged man cursed in his heart, but he didn't back down as he waited for Lin Fan to say something.

Lin Fan narrowed his eyes to look at the handsome middle aged man before slashing the price in half, "Ten spirit stones."

It was the handsome middle aged man's turn to narrow his eyes when he heard this.

After looking at Lin Fan as if he was wondering if he was serious or not, the handsome middle aged man said, "This brother, I can't go lower than fifteen spirit stones."

Lin Fan and the handsome middle aged man just looked at each other for a bit, but then Lin Fan gave a nod before saying, "Then it seems that we can't come to a deal."

With that, he turned to leave.

The handsome middle aged man was surprised to hear this, but he quickly said, "Wait, wait, this brother, you can't give up that easily. I'm certain that you're destined to have this bottle of pills, so why don't we talk about it?"

Lin Fan stopped when he heard this and turned around to look at the handsome middle aged man as if he was asking him what he would do.

The handsome middle aged man remained silent for a bit before saying, "This brother, I'm sure that there are other things that catch your eyes here. How about you point out some other things that you like and I'll give you a bundle deal?"

Lin Fan shook his head before pointing out a few things and saying, "As long as you give me all of these things as well, I can consider buying these Foundation Breakthrough Pills at this price."

The handsome middle aged man took a look at the items that he had pointed out and then knitted his brows.

But in truth, though he knitted his brows like this, he actually wasn't that unwilling to accept this deal.

In fact, he was secretly overjoyed seeing that the things that Lin Fan had picked out were nothing more than trash. All together, it added up to no more than one spirit stone.

Still, it was his job to gouge the customer for as much as possible, so it wasn't as if he could just accept this deal right away.

Instead, he revealed a look of difficulty, like he found this hard to accept as he said, "This brother, I do want to make this deal, but…I can't just give you that many things for free. You're being too greedy, I just can't make this deal."

Lin Fan narrowed his eyes to look at the handsome middle aged man before pointing at two things and saying, "Then leave out these two things and it's a deal."

Though the middle aged man had an unwilling look on his face, his eyes actually lit up when he saw this.

That was because the two things that Lin Fan had removed were the two that were worth the most out of all the things that he pointed out.

The handsome middle aged man couldn't help thinking to himself, "This kid really is green, he doesn't even know these simple things." But of course, he would never actually point these things out for him.

So the middle aged man looked like he was still struggling for a bit before finally saying, "Alright, it's because I feel that this item is destined for you that I am willing to make this deal." He leaned in close as he said, "Brother, remember that I'm doing this as a favour to you. If I get in trouble later, I'll need your help to speak up for me."

Lin Fan didn't bother going along with this and just tossed over fifteen spirit stones.

The handsome middle aged man happily caught them and then handed over the items that Lin Fan bought.

As he did, he tried to get closer to Lin Fan and learn which sect he came from, but Lin Fan didn't bother talking to him.

After all, Lin Fan knew what the value of these things were and he knew that the handsome middle aged man had been trying his best to gouge him for as much as he could. This was the kind of person that he disliked, so he didn't want to be friends with him.

So after taking the items, Lin Fan headed off to another stall.

Using the same method as before, he was able to get the item that he wanted without arousing any suspicion.

But this time, he talked to the owner of the stall a bit because this one was different from the last one.

From the very beginning, this person gave him a fair price and even offered him freebies.

It was clear that there was a difference in treatment between these two stalls.

For the one that treated him with sincerity, he didn't mind talking to them a bit longer.

For the one that treated him as an easy mark, he wouldn't care what they said to get his attention.
