Chapter 62: Don’t Underestimate Me Part Two

Not able to find a good liquor store while wandering on the streets of Lulai County Town, Mu Xiaoyao was so frustrated that she wanted to go back to the inn and sleep. However, Da Quan was in the mood since it was easy to buy fragrant stewed meat on the streets.

When a phoenix hairpin at a booth caught Fang Jie’s attention, he suddenly realized that even if he bought it, he had no one to gift it to. Mu Xiaoyao didn’t think of herself as a woman. Regardless of how delicate this phoenix hairpin was, she wouldn’t look at it.

However, Fang Jie didn’t go away; he felt like he was in the age to give gifts to women. He had no other choices but to gift this hairpin to Mu Xiaoyao.

“Great eyes!”

The vendor saw Fang Jie staring at the phoenix hairpin at his booth, so he quickly grabbed it and said, “This is a great item from the Phoenix Terrace. Since you look knowledgeable, you must know that every creation of the Phoenix Terrace is in the shape of a phoenix. This item could be counted as a top-tier product among all the creations of the Phoenix Terrace in the last ten years. Since you look kind, I will give you a discount. How about ten silver taels?”

“500 cash coins,” Fang Jie replied.

“Come on, are you kidding? 500 cash coins? Do you want to purchase an item from the Phoenix Terrace for 500 cash coins? You are a joker. Nine silver taels; this is the lowest price.”

“500 cash coins,” Fang Jie said calmly.

The vendor clenched his teeth and said, “Eight taels of silver. I won’t sell it for anything less!”

“500 cash coins.”

The vendor got angry and put the phoenix hairpin back into the box while saying, “If you want it, then make a legit offer. Otherwise, you can go to other places.”

As soon as Fang Jie turned around, the vendor quickly called out, “Alright, five silver taels, ok?”

Fang Jie turned back around and said, “One silver tael.”

The vendor shook his head in pain and said, “Hey man, you are here to cause trouble? Alright, one silver tael. I will let you win this time!”

At this moment, a woman suddenly said on the side with her crisp voice, “Five silver taels; I will buy it.”

Fang Jie looked over and saw a woman in a long dark-green dress. Her figure was beautiful, and her waist was on par with that of Mu Xiaoyao. However, she was a bit taller, and her shoulders were slightly wider. Therefore, Mu Xiaoyao appeared more feminine, and this woman appeared more valiant.

A portion of her long hair was tied into a bun, and a golden butterfly hairpin could be seen in the bun.

This woman’s face was pale, and her eyes were big. Her facial features were delicate, and her red lips could make men fantasize.

Without question, her red lips could allure many men. Her red lips were naturally bright, and nothing was applied.

As a result, Fang Jie instantly recognized this woman. His eyes stayed on this woman’s red lips before moving to the unsheathed sword in her arms. Then, he shook his head.

This woman in dark-green took out five silver taels from her purse and handed them to the vendor. “Five silver taels. I’m getting this phoenix hairpin.”

However, the vendor shook his head and said to this beautiful woman earnestly, “I’m sorry. Although I want the five silver taels in your hand, this gentleman and I already made a deal. If I didn’t agree to his offer, I can sell this phoenix hairpin to you. Although one silver tael isn’t much, I already nodded, so this phoenix hairpin is his now.”

Then, this vendor added, “Sorry about that. If you like anything else that I’m selling, I can offer you a discount.”
