Seeing Lin Jin's resolute attitude, the gang leader thought to himself, "This kid is really tough. It seems that no matter how much I try to lower the price, it will be in vain!" Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh and said helplessly, "Alright, Brother Mu, since you insist, I'll give you face and take these goods at the price you asked for."
Lin Jin was secretly pleased upon hearing this, but deliberately put on a reluctant expression, as if he wasn't very satisfied with the price. He hesitated for a moment, then slowly said, "Alright then, Boss Hei, considering our many transactions together, I'll reluctantly agree. But if I ever get anything good in the future, I'll have to come to you again!"
The gang leader's lips curled into a barely perceptible smile as he said, "Of course, Brother Mu. Bring me whatever good stuff you have in the future, and I'll never treat you unfairly!" With that, he held up two fingers, shook them, and continued, "As for this watch, this is the price I'll give you!"
Lin Jin took a closer look and was immediately overjoyed. The price was much higher than he had expected! He quickly nodded and replied, "Okay, boss, it's settled then!" The two quickly completed the transaction, and Lin Jin left the black market satisfied, his wallet bulging.
After Lin Jin's figure disappeared through the doorway, the two henchmen who had been standing there hurriedly came in. One of them, looking puzzled, said to the gang leader, "Boss, why didn't you detain that kid? If you had, all these things would have been ours!" The other henchman chimed in, "Yeah, boss, even if we had taken his stuff, he definitely wouldn't have dared to report it to the police!"
The gang leader slapped each of them and said, "What do you know? You'd better not mess with him. You forgot you followed him before and then suddenly disappeared! He definitely has a big shot backing him! Besides, this batch of goods is all top-notch; we're sure to make a lot of money!"
When Lin Jin got home, she immediately went inside, took out the money, and counted it. She couldn't help but laugh out loud, "She made so much money in just one trip! Much faster than she makes selling fruits and vegetables! Although it was dangerous, it was exciting, wasn't it? She seems to really enjoy that kind of excitement. Not everyone understands the joy of making money!" Thinking about it, she laughed again!
She looked around again at the vegetables, fruits, and medicinal herbs in the space. She didn't know what was going on, but the medicinal herbs in this space were maturing at a slower and slower pace, while the fruits and vegetables didn't seem to have changed much! Lin Jin frowned and began to ponder. The slower maturation of the medicinal herbs in this space was not a good sign.
Lin Jin thought about how two years had passed since the banquet, and there had been no progress in the cultivation technique. "Could the setting of the space be related to the cultivation technique I taught?" Lin Jin speculated on all sorts of possibilities! Lin Jin picked up the book in the space that explained the space and read it repeatedly, but it didn't mention why the space's effects had diminished! Lin Jin slammed the book down on the table and said angrily, "What kind of nonsense is this! It doesn't explain anything clearly, leaving me to guess. How am I supposed to guess?"
She punched the book twice more! To her surprise, a patch of color on the cover chipped off. Startled, Lin Jin quickly clasped her hands together and said, "Great master, I am so sorry for my offense! Please don't take offense!" Lin Jin carefully blew away the chipped paper and discovered faint writing underneath. She leaned closer to look and realized the book had hidden content. It read: "Spatial spiritual energy is related to the cultivator's state of mind and the compatibility of their cultivation method. If the mind is restless or the method is unsuitable, the spatial spiritual energy will weaken, causing the growth of all things to slow down." Lin Jin slapped her forehead. In the past two years, she had been too eager for quick results, and her mind had long lost its initial tranquility. Perhaps the cultivation method was no longer suitable for her.
