Chapter 188 Promoted to Stuffed Monkey



"Are you serious?" Tu Nian could have a hard time with anyone, but he would never have a hard time with money.

"Seriously!" the male cultivator immediately made the decision.

"Okay." Tu Nian stroked the Golden Crow's reverse feathers with one hand and said with interest, "Then, two hundred thousand top-grade ones."

"this."

Although the three had expected Tu Nian to quote a high price, they hadn't imagined she would ask for such an exorbitant sum. A single, top-grade Golden Crow Reverse Feather costing two hundred thousand yuan would be a stratospheric price even on the black market in Wozhou, and the male cultivator was stunned.

“Woo——”

Regardless of what the other party thought of the price, the Golden Crow Beast was the first to be unhappy. It raised its head aggrievedly, looking at Tu Nian with its big eyes, blinking smartly.

No, it hurts the most to pull out those few hairs.

He tapped its head amusedly and said, "You really think you're the boss. Don't you have any idea how much your bird feed costs in a day?"

She paused for a moment, then spoke again with a subtle expression, "Besides, we haven't even negotiated a price yet, so whether they're willing to buy yours is another matter. It's a little early for you to get excited now."

Tu Nian's words were obviously directed at those people. After all, my price is here. If you want to buy, open your mouth. If you don't want to buy, just stay out of the way.

In fact, her price was not entirely unfair.

Price is entirely dependent on demand; goods that are unavailable are always much more expensive. To put it bluntly, the male cultivator was just a little too impatient. If he had been a bit more approachable and talked about something else, she might not have asked for such a high price.

It's true that the average price of a Golden Crow Reverse Feather was around 140,000 or 150,000, but that was peak season. Golden Crows are now scarce, and their fur, bones, and blood are all going up in price. The fact that this male cultivator, regardless of what happened just now, came to her and begged her for it, then offered to pay her any price, clearly demonstrated that it was impossible to obtain this Golden Crow Reverse Feather through ordinary means these days.

In this way, the price she asked was only slightly higher than the market value by 10,000 or 20,000 yuan. If the other party was really sincere, he should understand the value of her asking price.

If she didn't understand, she wouldn't bother talking to a cow.

The two companions of the male cultivator obviously could not understand the deeper meaning of this. They had been persuading Tu Nian to give up since he quoted the price.

"This is too expensive. It's just a reverse feather. I don't believe I can't find one at a normal price."

"Yeah, if all else fails, we can just buy a Bifang. Didn't your dad say that a Bifang Niyu would be fine, after all?"

Bifang also has such a thing as Niyu? Could it be that Niyu is a universal equipment for spiritual birds?

No matter how the three people in front of him talked and chatted, Tu Nian was daydreaming, thinking only of waiting for Bo Qiu to come back so that he could ask him for some basic knowledge on cultivating immortals.

"Stop talking!"

Finally, amidst the chatter of his two colleagues, the male cultivator made the final decision and said to Tu Nian through gritted teeth, "It's two hundred thousand. I beg you to wait for two days. I will go home to get the spirit stones and then trade with you."

One of the other two immediately grabbed his arm and said in surprise, "Aye, are you crazy? Where are you going to get so many spirit stones?"

The male cultivator broke away from him, his face determined, "Don't worry about it. Even if it means draining all my savings, I will definitely buy this Reverse Feather..."

Two days.

Tu Nian had no intention of listening to the three people's chatter. He was happy but then became depressed.

This business was a sure win, but Nie Yanchen was tied up in official duties and couldn't wait with her for the next two days. With Sheng Gaoyang's situation and the knowledge of the Golden Crow in her possession, her personal safety was difficult to guarantee.

But she really couldn't bear to part with those 200,000 spirit stones...

That's all! Tu Nian raised his eyes with determination and smiled at the male cultivator, "It's settled. We'll meet at this place and time in two days. Pay the money and we'll receive the goods."

Who cares about the safety issue? At most, she will just stick to Fang Yuan for the next two days because of her shame. If she doesn't make money, she will miss it forever.

While waiting for someone, Tu Nian inexplicably earned a considerable amount of extra money. She was in a very good mood. Even Fang Yuan, who hurried back, could clearly see her joy, but he didn't know the reason and couldn't help feeling a little puzzled.

Just how big of a grudge is there between Little Sister Tu and Junior Brother Sheng that they would be so happy after a fight?

After delivering the documents, Fang Yuan quickly came out and said to Tu Nian with an apologetic look, "Master is currently discussing matters with the two sect leaders. Junior Brother Sheng's matter will probably take some time to be dealt with."

"It's okay." Tu Nian smiled, "I still have to stay in Bihai for two days anyway, so take me to the library first."

"Huh?" He hadn't heard anyone say that Sect Leader Nie wanted to stay in the sect longer.

Fang Yuan was a little surprised, but quickly responded: "Okay, let's go now."

It was during the break, and there were many people on the way to the library. Tu Nian had an illusion that she was quite famous in Bi Hai. Up to now, she had seen at least five or six groups of people passing by her, and then gathered together to discuss something.

What happened? Did she become famous in Bi Hai as soon as the policy of the three sects alliance came out?

Of course, things weren't that mysterious. Seeing her puzzled expression, Fang Cheng smiled and explained, "You won the first place in the formation competition at the grand competition. Now, almost everyone in the sect knows your name."

"So that's why." Tu Nian smiled. "I'm just lucky and a little clever. In terms of hard power, I can't compare to you, the real formation masters."

"Little Sister Tu is too modest. Victory is victory, and strategies are also part of the formation competition."

Fang Cheng sighed helplessly as he spoke, "After returning from the competition, Master scolded all the disciples who participated, from their attitude to their actual combat skills. He made them observe the stone that held your photo from the competition for three whole days before he finally stopped."

"My goodness, this is too exaggerated."

After knowing the truth, Tu Nian immediately shrank her neck subtly. If her Taoist robe had a high collar, she would have to shrink her face. "I won't dare to fight with your sect again. This is just the first time and I'm being studied like a monkey. If this happens a few more times, won't I be made into a specimen?"

She had never imagined that one day she would become a role model for an event. She should have been quite proud of this treatment, but the thought of being observed from all angles made Tu Nian feel less proud and more disgusted.

No matter how Fang Yuan tried to comfort her, Tu Nian felt like she was on edge. A distance of only about 1,800 meters felt like she had walked more than ten miles.

After finally reaching the door of the library, she felt relieved and rushed in. Her speed left everyone around her stunned for a while.

The library in Bi Hai is magnificent. Even if the library in Ji Xue is renovated from the inside out, it is still not even one-tenth as magnificent as it.

The most magnificent one is the mural that covers the entire library. From the moment he entered the door, Tu Nian's eyes were glued to it and he couldn't take his eyes off it.
