Lin Xiuyuan frowned, and since he couldn't pretend not to see it, he stepped forward.
"Heh, if you don't have money, don't try to come to Wanbaolou. You can't afford it anyway, so what are you pretending for?"
The young man said sarcastically.
"What do you mean you can't afford it? You're clearly the one who's overcharging and trying to snatch it! That's outrageous!" Zhou Qingxue's pretty face flushed red as she glared at him angrily.
As Lin Xiuyuan approached, he heard these words and couldn't help but glance at the servant behind the counter in surprise.
Logically speaking, everything in Wanbaolou is clearly priced, and there is a first-come, first-served principle.
This isn't some small stall or auction where whoever bids the highest gets it. Big stores have rules and regulations, so this person must have a powerful background.
This is normal. If someone can challenge Zhou Qingxue, their background must be quite impressive. Otherwise, a mere Qi Refining cultivator wouldn't have the guts.
After all, the Zhou family is a medium-to-large family with a Golden Core Ancestor in charge, and Zhou Qingxue is the granddaughter of the current patriarch, so her status is extraordinary. Ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivators would not dare to offend her in the slightest.
It is clear that the young man's background is at least that of a Golden Core family.
It seems they don't get along with the Zhou family, otherwise they wouldn't have staged this scene.
Perhaps its background is somewhat related to Wanbaolou, otherwise such a scene of raising the price on the spot would not have occurred!
Lin Xiuyuan's arrival surprised Zhou Qingxue somewhat, but also felt like she had seen reinforcements. A look of joy flashed across her face, and she quickly turned around to stand in front of him, saying with a slightly aggrieved expression, "Cousin Xiuyuan, why are you here? You've come at just the right time. This guy is so unfair; I was here first and had my eye on this spiritual herb..."
"Hehe, what do you mean by 'first come, first served'? When people open their doors to do business, do you think they'd refuse to sell at a high price and insist on selling to you at a low price? Hehe, if you're not happy, then raise your price. We're not stopping you. Do you not have any spirit stones? It seems the Zhou family has indeed declined. A dignified direct descendant's daughter can't even afford a spirit herb that's a little more expensive. If all else fails, come and spend two days with me, and I'll buy ten of them as a reward."
The young man glanced at Lin Xiuyuan, seemingly not taking him seriously, and instead spoke arrogantly and sarcastically.
