There’s No Way My Dad Is A Legendary Cultivator - Chapter 198
Chapter 198: A Strange Piece of Iron
After thinking for a moment, Yan’er was about to agree when a hand reached out from behind her.
“No, is this thing worth two spirit stones?”
“I don’t even want it if you sell it to me in copper coins!”
After saying this, Zhao Tianqian stood out from behind Yan’er, followed by Jiang Ping.
The shopkeeper looked as if he was facing a great enemy, but he was at least a veteran who had opened a shop for more than a decade. After hearing the old Taoist priest’s words, he took back the piece of iron.
“This is the treasure of my shop!”
“Two spirit stones is already the lowest price. If you are not sincerely interested, there’s no need to talk anymore!”
After taking back the iron bar in Yan’er’s hand, it could be seen on her face that she was panicking a little.
The shopkeeper had noticed this and wanted to take the opportunity to raise the price.
Zhao Tianqian was even more crafty and directly asked the shopkeeper.
“Treasure of the store? Come, tell me about the effect of this treasure.”
“If you can tell me, I’ll admit defeat and even buy it with five high-grade spirit stones!”
The shopkeeper’s heart skipped a beat. This was an expert!
However, making up stories was his strong point, so he immediately made one up.
“This iron is a weapon left behind by a mighty figure in ancient times. It might even be a divine weapon!”
“Moreover, this iron is invulnerable to swords and spears, invulnerable to water and fire, and incomparably hard. Do you think it’s worth this price?”
Zhao Tianqian directly sneered.
“Ancient times? How ancient is that?”
“And it’s even a divine weapon! Have you ever seen a divine weapon? You just opened your mouth and blabbered!”
The shopkeeper might have realized that this bragging was a little too much.
His palms were sweating, and he felt somewhat guilty.
“Then name a price, and I’ll see if we can negotiate.”
Zhao Tianqian revealed a victorious smile and stretched out a palm.
After thinking for a while, he put away a finger and said.
“Four middle-grade spirit stones, not even one more!”
The shopkeeper’s reaction also caught Zhao Tianqian by surprise.
The shopkeeper handed over the iron bar with both hands and said straightforwardly.
“Deal, pay up!”
Zhao Tianqian, who had thought that he would have to deal with the shopkeeper for a few more rounds, suddenly felt as if he had been tricked.
He even forgot to take his hand back.
This… profiteer!
Yan’er couldn’t wait any longer. She was afraid that the shopkeeper would go back on his word, so she directly hugged the iron bar and turned to Jiang Ping.
“Daddy, pay up!”
Jiang Ping smiled as he took out five middle-grade spirit stones and handed them to the shopkeeper. He even carefully observed the shopkeeper’s expression.
When the shopkeeper received the spirit stones, a smile inadvertently appeared on his face.
Zhao Tianqian also happened to see the shopkeeper’s cunning smile. He immediately wanted to beat his chest and stomp his feet.
Jiang Ping smiled as he patted the old Taoist priest’s shoulder.
“I don’t know who said that they’re a good negotiator!”
Then, he began to snicker.
Five middle-grade spirit stones were nothing to him, but it was still interesting to spend five spirit stones to see Zhao Tianqian suffer.
Then, the group left the shop and continued to shop.
Seeing Jiang Ping and the others go far away, the shopkeeper of the blacksmith shop burst into unbridled laughter.
He didn’t expect to sell a useless thing at such a high price when he opened the shop today, so he was very pleased with himself.
He even thought of talking to his wife when he got home so that she wouldn’t call him useless in the future.
Wan’er, Liu’er, and He Xiangjiang were still walking at the front.
Yan’er, who had already bought the item she liked, obediently followed beside Jiang Ping.
She held the iron bar in her arms and seemed to have a lot on her mind. Her two small eyebrows were knitted tightly together.
In order to prove himself, Zhao Tianqian had been following Wan’er and the others. He thought that he had acted out of character just now. He would definitely show Jiang Ping his eloquence next time.
Jiang Ping and Yan’er were walking at the back. Jiang Ping noticed Yan’er’s abnormality and reached out to gently press the little girl’s head.
Yan’er raised her head and wanted to say something.
But Jiang Ping told her to talk later. There were too many people and too many eyes.
Then, he helped the little girl put away the iron bar that she had just bought.
Jiang Ping squatted down and rubbed the space between Yan’er’s eyebrows.
“No matter what, we’ll talk about it later. Daddy will accompany you.”
The little girl nodded heavily.
Jiang Ping held her hand and followed the crowd.
Later, Wan’er and Liu’er both bought the items they liked.
Wan’er chose a wooden hairpin.
The hairpin was very plain and smooth, but it was a rare item.
The shopkeeper who sold the hairpin said that if one were to wear the hairpin in the summer, it would bring a cool and refreshing feeling, and it was especially easy to calm one’s heart.
Moreover, after the little girl wore it, although it looked like a chopstick stuck in her head from afar, it had a different charm when examined carefully.
Liu’er bought a jade token.
There was nothing carved on the jade token. The shopkeeper said that the token represented peace, and it was usually worn to ensure safety.
Liu’er asked if there was any special effect.
The pretty shopkeeper shook her head.
She said that this token was made of a material that made it look nicer, and it did not have any special effect. What was special was the meaning of ensuring safety.
Liu’er was very satisfied and took down the token.
After taking it down, she turned around and gave it to Li Sushang.
Li Sushang was a little flattered.
“This is…”
Liu’er chuckled.
“I think Auntie Sushang usually works very hard and has never cultivated.”
“So I’m giving this token to Auntie Sushang, so that you’ll be safe.”
Jiang Ping secretly gave a thumbs up to his third daughter.
Liu’er also giggled in response.
Li Sushang was very touched, and she almost burst into tears.
She squatted down and hugged Liu’er tightly.
Liu’er, who was hugged by Li Sushang, reached out to pat her back.
Jiang Ping was very pleased with his third daughter. His three daughters each had their own merits.
Liu’er was the only one who could please Jiang Ping the most.
This was because Liu’er, who was the youngest, was the most meticulous.
At last, the young Taoist priest chose the cheapest item.
It was a pen. There was nothing special about the pen. It could be bought in an ordinary market.
It was just that the workmanship was more exquisite, and the material was better.
Moreover, it had the lowest price. It was only one low-grade spirit stone.
Even Liu’er’s safety token cost three low-grade spirit stones.
Zhao Tianqian looked at the pen and could not bear to bargain. He casually said something and asked the shopkeeper to gift something.
The shopkeeper was also very straightforward. He gifted him two paperweights made of stones. They weren’t worth much and didn’t look good, so the shopkeeper didn’t feel bad giving them away.
After shopping, Lei Jingyun and Qiu Chi arrived just in time. The group found a restaurant for dinner and planned to rest.
Jiang Ping brought Yan’er to his room before going to bed.
Then he took out the piece of iron that Yan’er had bought during the day and placed it on the table.
When she saw the piece of iron, the little girl’s heart ached a little.
Jiang Ping had long discovered that this piece of iron was extraordinary. Moreover, his second daughter had the spiritual chaos sword physique.
Anything that could catch her eye was definitely not an ordinary item.
Jiang Ping asked Yan’er softly.
“Is there anything different about this piece of iron?”
Yan’er nodded with a melancholic look in her eyes.
“It can talk.”
Jiang Ping was also a little surprised. This was very strange.
A broken piece of iron could talk?
