Signing In For Eight Years, I Was Exposed As A Zillionaire! - Chapter 601
601 No Mercy
This stunned Fifth Sister Ye Fei. The other sisters also noticed this scene. Although they were very sorry, they didn’t panic much.
After all, these were not very expensive things. She should just compensate the old woman.
Therefore, Fifth Sister Ye Fei picked up the crystal-clear pebble that had been broken into two and placed it in her hand. She looked at the old woman and spoke apologetically.
“Grandma, I’m sorry. My hand slipped and I broke it. How much do you want? I’ll compensate you.”
The old lady was originally a little anxious when she saw that her things had shattered. It seemed that many people usually broke things and left without paying, causing her to be so anxious.
However, when she heard Fifth Sister Ye Fei say that she wanted to compensate her, the anxiety on her face immediately disappeared and a dark expression appeared on her face. Then, she rolled her eyes and shouted at Fifth Sister Ye Fei.
“Five thousand!”
Hearing this, the sisters were stunned. This was a pebble, which was such a cheap and small item. Was this worth 5,000 yuan? Wasn’t this asking for a little too much?
It felt like when one was in China, the boss of those scenic spot stalls selling prayer beads, bracelets, iron rings, and so on would ask for a high price of tens of thousands of yuan just because a rock was broken. This was clearly being shameless.
Although they were very angry, they didn’t flare up. They maintained their good attitude and replied.
“Grandma, does this pebble cost 5,000 dollars? Isn’t this a little too expensive?”
“That’s right, Grandma. This kind of stone is just a pebble. It can’t be so expensive. Did you remember the price incorrectly?”
“Even if it’s jade, such a small piece won’t cost so much. Moreover, Grandma, this is made of a pebble. It’s not worth this price at all.”
“How about this, Grandma? We definitely can’t give you 5,000 dollars. We’ll give you 500 dollars at most. It’s not easy for you either. How about that?”
At this point, the sisters had already done their best to compensate her with 500 dollars. It was not easy for an old woman like her to earn some money. If it were anyone else, they would at most compensate her with 50 dollars.
After all, it was a pebble and was worthless. In some places, crystal clear stones like this could be seen everywhere. This kind of stone had no use for industrialization or refinement. It was useless and could only be looked at.
In fact, it was much better to buy a piece of jade for 5,000 dollars than this thing. Jade was sentient. If it was raised well, it was said that it could help its master block disasters.
At the very least, it would be better for a girl to spend 5,000 dollars to buy some crystals to play with astrology and divination than this pebble. Crystals were also sentient. After demagnetization, they could still move and look for things. It was also very magical. Anything was better than her pebble, okay? Moreover, this pebble was so rough. It was said to be crystal clear, but this was just a beautiful name for it. To be honest, it was just a pebble with a color that looked like crystal or glass.
If it was transparent and one placed it in front of their eyes, they would be blinded.
The sisters were not stupid. They had touched good items over the years, so they naturally knew the price of this pebble. It was already good to sell it for five dollars, let alone the current price of 500 dollars.
The old woman had simply made a killing. At her age, she could eat for a month with a single order.
However, after the old woman heard this, she had no intention of stopping. She stared fixedly at the fact that her sisters were foreigners and spoke with a straight face.
“Five hundred dollars? That won’t do. This stone is a famous stone unique to Summer Island. If you don’t have 5,000 dollars today, don’t think about overcoming this matter!”
Ye Xuan was amused by this old woman’s serious nonsense. She really thought that the entire world didn’t know what the specialties and characteristics of Summer Island were. She grabbed a pebble and said that it was a f*cking famous stone. She made it seem as if China didn’t have any pebbles. Did China import all the pebbles?
It was really funny. However, on second thought, it made sense. These old women were already so old. They were illiterate and could not play with cell phones. Usually, they would only hear about it from others and not look at the news. Thus, they would think that foreigners did not know anything about Summer Island.
It seemed like she was certain of this.
“It has to be 5,000 dollars. Not a single cent less! This stone is my most precious thing. You have to compensate me with 5,000 dollars! Is this the quality of you foreigners? You can’t just break something and not compensate us when you come to Summer Island to travel! You foreigners really don’t know anything about Summer Island. This stone is the most precious! The purchase price was more than 4,000 dollars. Usually, I sell it for 7,000 to 8,000 dollars. Today, I’m already letting you off easy by asking you to compensate me with 5,000 dollars! Hurry up and pay!”
Ye Xuan thought, “Good lord.” Did this mean that he and his sisters were not at a small street stall but at an antique street?
The purchase price was more than 4,000 dollars. Usually, it was sold for 7,000 to 8,000 dollars. It was a pity that an old woman like her did not stay at the antique street in China. It was a waste of an eternal talent.
When the sisters heard the old woman’s loud and unreasonable voice, they were a little speechless. They continued to be reasonable.
“No, Grandma, this stone is really not worth 5,000 dollars. It looks like it’s only worth dozens of dollars. You can’t extort us.”
“That’s right, Grandma. This is not right. You can’t extort others like this. It’s already not bad for us to compensate you with 500 dollars. We won’t increase the price beyond 500 dollars.”
“Old madam, how can you say that? Five hundred dollars is already enough to buy a few kilograms of this stone. If you say that it costs 5,000 dollars, that’s a little like cheating.”
“In any case, we’re only offering 500 dollars. Tell us if you want it or not. There’s nothing we can do if you don’t want it.”
At this moment, the sisters clearly looked a little unhappy. After all, who knew that they would encounter such a thing? It was obvious that she saw that everyone here was foreigners and wanted to scam them to death.
This was just like some black-hearted restaurants in the tourist attractions in the country. There were also those goods that they used to scam people. When the tour guide brought them there, they would scam them to death. They would spend tens of thousands of yuan for a meal and force them to spend it in shops. These were all light punishments.
The most important thing was that they would not leave a single cent on their bodies. Usually, they would not be able to deal with them even if they called the police. It was only when they saw this scene that their sisters realized that such people were the same in the world. Be it domestically or overseas, these people were the ones who were harming others. They were certain that the other party were not locals and could not take revenge on them. Therefore, they caught them and scammed them to death. They would not stop until they scammed them to death. They would not show any mercy.
