Chapter 80 Purchasing Spirit Vegetables

"Jiang Yuan, why don't we buy them all!" Ning Yanlan looked at Jiang Yuan with a smile. "That uncle has it tough, coming out to sell vegetables so early in the morning!"

Jiang Yuan's eyes changed. "Big sister, we haven't even discussed the price yet! You're already asking to buy everything. Aren't you afraid they'll try to rip you off?"

"How much are your vegetables?" Jiang Yuan decided to ask the price first; he didn't want to lose money unnecessarily.

Ning Yanlan used to be a big spender, which wasn't noticeable in normal times, but her habits would naturally come out when it came to spending money.

“These are freshly picked by me, and there are only this many vegetables there.”

"Stop! Just tell me how much it costs and how it's sold!" Jiang Yuan didn't want to listen to this old man's nonsense.

"Five pounds of vegetables for one Tier 1 Holy Spirit Stone, only the Holy Spirit Stone!" The uncle said, intentionally or unintentionally observing the expressions of the two people.

Jiang Yuan frowned, about to speak, but the uncle said in a friendly tone, "However, meeting such a handsome and beautiful newlywed couple so early in the morning is a good omen for my stall. I can give you two extra pounds!"

"What a sincere uncle! Even though my makeup is so ugly, he can still see my inner beauty through my appearance!" Ning Yanlan communicated with Jiang Yuan through her soul ring.

Jiang Yuan was quite annoyed, but if he said that the uncle was lying, wouldn't that be indirectly saying that Ning Yanlan was not beautiful inside?

"They can exchange one Tier 1 Holy Spirit Stone for ten kilograms of vegetables at that stall, but your price is doubled!" Jiang Yuan said to the uncle, his expression revealing his dissatisfaction.

The uncle got anxious and quickly explained, "You get what you pay for. Let me tell you, that guy's vegetables are his own, but mine are different. They're all freshly grown recently!"

"Forget it, it's too expensive. Holy Spirit Stones are hard to earn, so let's not worry about the price and just have something simple to eat!" Jiang Yuan said, pulling Ning Yanlan away.

The uncle immediately advised, "How about this, seeing that you sincerely want to buy, and it's rare to meet such kind people, I'll take a loss and exchange one Holy Spirit Stone for eight catties, okay?"

Jiang Yuan remained silent and prepared to get up and leave, but Ning Yanlan asked in bewilderment, "Why don't we just buy it?"

"..." Jiang Yuan was helpless. Can't you tell I'm just putting on an act? How am I supposed to bargain now that you've said that?

"How many Holy Spirit Stones of vegetables do you two want?" the uncle immediately asked.

Seeing this, Jiang Yuan lost interest in bargaining; he had indeed come for the spiritual vegetables on the stall.

The other stalls mostly sold ordinary vegetables, but this uncle's stall had a large portion of magical vegetables mixed in, making it clearly of a much higher quality.

"Then let's do as my girlfriend says and take them all!" Jiang Yuan readily agreed and bought them.

He had considered picking out all the spiritual vegetables to buy, but he felt that would be unfair, so he decided to buy them all anyway, since there were quite a few spiritual vegetables mixed in, so he wouldn't lose money no matter what he bought.

"You really want them all?" The uncle was also startled by Jiang Yuan's words. His original intention was that he would be lucky to sell even one Holy Spirit Stone.

"How many kilograms is this?" Jiang Yuan glanced at it. These vegetables weighed only a few dozen kilograms, and some of them were mutated vegetables, each weighing several kilograms.

"Fifty jin!" The uncle smiled broadly, never expecting that he would have to pack up his stall so soon after setting up. This was something he never dared to imagine.

"Would you sell six Tier 1 Holy Spirit Stones?" Jiang Yuan glanced at them and stated the number.

"Sell, sell, definitely sell!" the uncle immediately replied.

Ning Yanlan then took out six Tier 1 Holy Spirit Stones from her storage ring, and then pretended to take them out of her pocket, saying, "Uncle, these are for you!"

"Thank you, thank you!" The uncle immediately accepted it. "Now all my children can have their spirits awakened!"

Jiang Yuan transferred all the vegetables into sacks, then picked them up one in each hand and left.

Ning Yanlan followed closely behind, and after a while she asked, "Did we overpay?"

"No way!" Jiang Yuan walked to a secluded corner and handed the sack to Ning Yanlan, who then put it into her storage ring.

"Really not?" Ning Yanlan still felt cheated, because the other stall owners were looking at them with mocking eyes, as if they were saying that they were two idiots who were stupid and had too much money.

“The uncle is right, his vegetables are one of a kind!” Jiang Yuan grabbed Ning Yun before even taking the sack, “Do you remember the vegetables you picked and took a bite of last time?”

"I remember, it's the kind that gives you a little bit of spiritual energy after eating it!" Ning Yanlan said, then suddenly remembered something. "No way, this uncle's dishes have these in them?"

"Guess?" Jiang Yuan asked mysteriously.

"So, did we really make a profit?" Ning Yanlan didn't need to guess to know that what she cared about was whether she made a profit or not.

"Of course, we made quite a bit!" Jiang Yuan smiled slightly. "Spiritual vegetables are perfect for beginners in cultivation. Sister Li and Xiao Xin can both benefit from them! And they can also improve our meals!"

The spiritual energy within the spiritual vegetables is related to their grade. Even if first-grade spiritual vegetables don't offer much help, the accumulated amount over time is still terrifying. Moreover, these fifty catties of vegetables contain not only first-grade spiritual vegetables, but also many second- and third-grade ones.

"Jiang Yuan, you're really something!" Ning Yanlan laughed. "I used to be the one getting scammed, but now I can scam others too!"

"Wrong, this isn't a scam! It's fair trade, you know? There's no such thing as a scam, it's just a matter of perspective!"

"The uncle felt he made a profit, and so did we. It was a win-win situation for both of us."

Jiang Yuan corrected him.

"That's still not right! It's clearly a win-win situation for all three parties. Even the uncle can see how happy I am inside. I'm a winner too!" Ning Yanlan laughed.

In the blink of an eye, we arrived at the east side of the old town.
