Although she wasn't very satisfied with the first transaction, Gu Xi felt that searching in the chat channel was still somewhat effective.
So around 7 p.m., she figured most people had finished work, so she opened the chat channel again, ready to promote the product one more time.
At that moment, she inadvertently discovered several more friend requests.
When Gu Xi opened the message, she found that five people had requested to add her as a friend, and all of them were selling fish.
Gu Xi grew suspicious and, after assigning them numbers, began to reply to each one.
Gu Xi: You're late. I'm not buying fish anymore, but seeing how hard you've worked, I'll give you 1 piece of wood for each type of fish. Shall we trade?
Fishmonger No. 1 saw Gu Xi immediately lower the price to 1 unit of timber and kept complaining in his heart that Gu Xi was heartless.
Outsiders call them the Black Heart Alliance, but he thinks that the price Gu Xi offered is what truly makes them black heart.
Fishmonger No. 1: Okay, okay, I've caught a lot of fish, so I might as well keep them.
Something unusual must be going on. If they were willing to accept even the price of 1 unit of timber, Gu Xi felt that the other party must be up to something.
Then the fishmonger said he had five kinds of fish available for trade, and Gu Xi immediately told him to put them up for trade.
This time, Gu Xi successfully exchanged 5 pieces of wood for 5 kinds of fish, even though they were all poisonous fish.
Gu Xi sneered, her eyes filled with coldness.
She now understood that the people selling poisoned fish were probably in cahoots.
He was willing to trade her poisonous fish for the price of one piece of timber; he probably hoped she would be poisoned to death.
Okay, come on! Bring it on, everyone!
She was worried the other party didn't have enough fish! Who was she? She was Gu Xi, the fish-raising expert. Did they really think the fish-raising system was just for show?!
Next, Gu Xi began replying to Fishmonger No. 2.
Gu Xi: I just received some more fish. One of them bit me and I feel a bit uncomfortable. Is your fish okay?
When Fishmonger No. 2 heard that Gu Xi had been bitten, she was overjoyed and immediately wanted to poison the other fish with her own fish so that she could vent her anger.
Fishmonger #2: It's really dishonest of you to sell fish to that person! How could you sell them a fish that bites?! My fish absolutely do not bite! In fact, they're lively and jumping around.
Gu Xi: But how do I know if what you're saying is true?
Fishmonger #2: I can trade directly with you to take a look. You can pay after you confirm that there are no problems. What I want is not expensive, 3 wood for one type of fish.
Gu Xi: Okay then, let's make the deal first.
Seeing that Gu Xi had already been "tricked," fishmonger number 2 happily hung the fish up.
Thus, Gu Xi once again obtained four kinds of poisonous fish without any investment.
Fishmonger No. 2 waited a while and sent a message to Gu Xi, but did not receive a reply. She guessed that the other party might have already been laid to rest.
But at this moment, Gu Xi was trying to fool Fishmonger No. 3.
Gu Xi: I've received quite a few fish today. I'm sorry, I don't want yours.
