Looking at the two familiar mounts in front of him, Li Yang's eyes widened.
this...
There is definitely something wrong with this!
However, Zhao Linger next to her seemed not to notice.
At this time, he still walked up to the table in a daze, looked at the vendor with a flattering smile and spoke.
"We want these two mounts."
Li Yang's face suddenly turned black.
This can't be said to be a big deal.
This guy must be out of his mind!
Don’t you think these two generations of beastmen look familiar?
Li Yang suddenly felt overwhelmed.
The vendor was naturally very excited at this moment. He didn't expect that a buyer would come so soon and be so generous.
"Since the girl is so generous, I won't say anything. I'll give you a 20% discount. You're welcome to patronize us more often in the future. 800,000, take two away!"
"Okay, pull it out for me..."
Zhao Linger hadn't finished speaking yet.
Li Yang quickly pulled her back.
"No, what are you doing! Do you really want to buy it back? If you really buy it, I can laugh at you forever! Don't you think these two mobility beasts look alike to the one you rode yesterday?"
Zhao Linger was stunned for a moment, then looked at him.
Li Yang said so, and she suddenly felt a sense of familiarity as she watched.
"Oh my! Don't tell me, it seems to be true!"
Her eyes became strange, she walked forward, looked left and right, and her expression became thoughtful.
Seeing this, the vendor suddenly had a bad feeling.
He swallowed and spoke with a smile.
"Um, gentlemen, is there anything I can ask you? These two beasts are both top-quality breeds, very energetic, and very durable. You can buy them with absolute confidence."
At this time, Li Yang no longer wanted to listen to his nonsense, so he drew his sword and put it against his neck.
"Tell me, where did these two mounts come from?"
"ah?"
The peddler was stunned and panicked.
"What...what's wrong? Our supplies are all from legitimate channels, there's absolutely no problem, just buy with confidence!"
"Formal channels?"
Li Yang smiled.
"We don't remember selling our mounts."
"You mean by formal channels, stealing from others, right?"
When the peddler heard this, he was struck by lightning, his heart skipped a beat and he thought to himself, "Oh no!"
Zhao Linger, who was standing next to him, suddenly realized what was going on and was shocked.
"What? This is our mount? Why is it here?"
Faced with the double questioning, the vendor quickly waved his hands.
"Calm down! Calm down! Everyone, talk things over nicely. Don't use violence. This is a civilized society. Let's talk nicely. Put down your weapons, put down your swords..."
"If you don't tell me, I'll kill you right now!" At this time, Zhao Linger also took out a spear and put it against his back.
After realizing that she had been fooled, she was also very angry.
Good heavens, I almost didn't react and bought back my stolen mount. That was too embarrassing. I felt like I was being treated like a donkey.
Now the vendor was in a dilemma.
"Lady, brother, calm down, calm down! I really didn't know. These two mounts were brought here to sell not long ago. After putting down the mounts, they left in a hurry. I was just acting as a middleman and making a profit from the difference!"
"The middleman makes a profit from the price difference?"
Li Yang smiled coldly.
He spoke so innocently that he didn't believe that this person didn't know that these mounts came from illegal sources.
Ultimately it's all about greed.
Even if it has nothing to do with stealing mounts, this person is not a good person.
"Then do you remember the man who brought the mount over to sell it?"
The vendor shook his head repeatedly.
"No... I didn't know that the man was very cautious and wore a hood. I couldn't see his true appearance at all."
"Oh, so that's it." Li Yang looked regretful.
"That's a shame, because then you won't have anyone to ask for money."
Li Yang retracted his sword and, without caring about the vendor's reaction, he directly led out the two beasts. These beasts originally belonged to them, and it would be a huge injustice to spend money to buy them back!
When the vendor realized what was happening, his eyes widened. He said, "You can't play like this."
"This... Sir, please give me some, I bought this with my own money..."
"What? Are you saying we need to pay to take our own mounts? What are you talking about?"
Zhao Linger said angrily.
"If I can't find that bastard who stole our mount, I'll tear him into pieces!"
Li Yang took one last look at the vendor.
"This is a lesson for you. Remember, don't accept things from unknown sources in the future. If you try to get a small profit, you must be prepared to take risks."
It’s not so easy to make dirty money, and it will backfire one day.
This is illegal buying and selling in itself. Even if they really don't pay, it won't matter. What's more, the mount originally belongs to them.
Li Yang and Zhao Linger both mounted their mounts.
Seeing this, the peddler was heartbroken, but because Li Yang and his men had the truth in their hands, he did not dare to act rashly.
He cursed inwardly, thinking how unlucky he was. He had just retrieved this high-quality mount, but it was gone without earning a penny. He really lost both the wife and the army.
"Sure enough, this feeling, this touch is exactly the same as the one I had before! Damn it, it didn't let me catch that thief."
Sitting on the mount, Zhao Linger looked angry.
"This guy is so bold! He took it out one day and sold it the next day."
"It's too rampant. Let's get out of this damn place right away. This city doesn't feel right."
Li Yang shook his head and left with Zhao Linger.
After watching Li Yang and Zhao Linger leave, the peddler slapped his thigh, his face full of anger.
"Damn it! These two brats haven't even grown up yet. They only know how to do banditry and still say it's theirs. If I weren't so weak, I would have to flatter them and teach them a lesson!"
"That's right, we can't let them get away with it like that. I lost so much money and didn't make any profit at all!"
A gloomy look flashed across the hawker's eyes.
…
At the same time, Li Yang and Zhao Linger took back their mounts and were heading towards the city gate.
Zhao Linger was riding on her mount, cursing all the time.
"Damn thief! He almost made me spend money to buy back my own mount. He really treats me like a fool! If I wasn't in a hurry, I would have caught this guy at all costs, even if I had to search the entire city."
Li Yang was speechless. This Zhao Linger was stupid and rich. Who else would she cheat if not you?
What I don't understand is my lost mount. I can't recognize it after just one night. I really want to spend money to buy it back.
Li Yang guaranteed that if he hadn't been here, Zhao Linger would have happily spent money to buy it back and would not even realize that she was being cheated.
I can only say that it is people like her who are being pitted.
