Chapter 1230: Energy Stone Struggle (I)
Lu Xiaoxiao walked to a stall and asked the stall owner, "How much are these stones?"
"Ten dollars a piece, pick whatever you want."
"Can it be cheaper? Your price is too high." Lu Xiaoxiao said after hearing the price quoted by the stall owner.
"I transported these stones from the mountain behind Kake Village. Ten yuan a piece is already a very cheap price."
"Five dollars a piece. If possible, I'll buy two pieces for fun. You're not the only one selling stones here. If you don't want to sell them, I can buy them from other places."
After hearing what Lu Xiaoxiao said, the stall owner looked around and felt that Lu Xiaoxiao was right. There were too many people selling stones around, so if he still insisted on selling them for ten yuan, Lu Xiaoxiao would definitely not buy stones from him.
But he wouldn't make much money at five dollars a stone, and Lu Xiaoxiao didn't buy much, so there was no point in him selling it to Lu Xiaoxiao for five dollars.
"Six dollars a piece. If you want to buy it, then buy it. If not, forget it."
After hearing what the stall owner said, Lu Xiaoxiao took out twelve yuan from her pocket and handed it to the stall owner, then started to choose stones.
It didn't take long for Lu Xiaoxiao to choose a stone, and then she asked the stall owner, "Do you have a machine for cutting stones?"
"Yes, it's right there." After the stall owner said this, he pointed to the stone-cutting machine he had placed in the corner.
Lu Xiaoxiao looked in the direction the stall owner pointed, and she saw something covered with a black cloth in the corner. Under the black cloth should be the stone-cutting machine that the stall owner mentioned.
"Can you help me cut the stone?" Lu Xiaoxiao asked the stall owner.
"Of course you can, but there is a rule in the black market that anyone who helps to cut the stone must receive a red envelope."
"No problem, you solve it."
The stall owner nodded after hearing what Lu Xiaoxiao said, then he walked to the stone-cutting machine and sat down, picked up a piece of stone that Lu Xiaoxiao bought, and started to cut the stone.
“It’s red, it’s red.” The stall owner shouted after seeing the red energy stone in his hand.
When the people in the black market heard the stall owner's voice, they immediately ran to the stone-crushing machine. When they saw the fist-sized red energy stone in the stall owner's hand, they wanted to rush forward to grab it for themselves. You know, the black market has not sold energy stones for a month. Yesterday, someone auctioned a red energy stone the size of an egg on the black market and sold it at a sky-high price of 50,000.
"Stall owner, are you selling the energy stones in your hand?" Many people asked the stall owner.
"This energy stone is not mine. It belongs to the little brother next to me." The stall owner pointed at Lu Xiaoxiao and said.
"Little brother, do you want to sell that energy stone? I'll give you 100,000." A short and fat middle-aged man said to Lu Xiaoxiao.
"I will definitely sell the energy, but there are too many people and too little meat. Only one person here can get the energy stone. To make it fair, I decided that the highest bidder will win."
After hearing what Lu Xiaoxiao said, everyone looked at each other, and then their eyes instantly became fierce.
"I'll give you 150,000."
"I'll give you 180,000."
"I'll give you two hundred thousand."
After hearing the bid of 200,000, everyone fell silent. Firstly, they did not have that much money, and secondly, the energy stone was not worth 200,000. If they spent more than 200,000 to buy the energy stone, they would suffer a huge loss.
