Tang San had only known that Neuvillette had spent ten thousand Gold Soul Coins at Flender's place to buy a "broken crystal."
He had not known that this so-called "broken crystal" was actually Tabular Crystal, or rather, Hair Crystal.
The piece of Tabular Crystal in Neuvillette's hand was an absolute top-grade specimen among Tabular Crystals!
Forget ten thousand Gold Soul Coins—even a hundred thousand might not be enough to buy it!
Back then, Flender had seemed to say that he had originally planned to charge only one Gold Soul Coin, but Neuvillette had forcibly paid him ten thousand.
Damn it, why wasn't I, Tang San, the one who found such a bargain? This should have been my opportunity!
And really, it had originally been his opportunity!
"Flender didn't recognize Tabular Crystal and thought it was just broken crystal, letting Neuvillette snap it up for cheap. That Four-Eyed Cat Owl is truly blind!"
Tang San's mentality was on the verge of collapse. This kind of top-grade Tabular Crystal was something that could only be encountered by chance. No one knew whether a second piece could be found in the entire Douluo Continent. He was determined to obtain this one!
Though that was what he thought, Tang San was still considering another question: what equivalent stake should he offer?
It would have been fine if Neuvillette did not know the precise value of top-grade Tabular Crystal, but he clearly did, which made things difficult.
Tang San was dirt poor. Producing something equivalent to top-grade Tabular Crystal was no easy task.
"Tang San, do you think this Tabular Crystal isn't good enough? Shall we change it for something else?"
Seeing Tang San remain silent for so long, Neuvillette said "calmly."
Yet he already understood. How could Tabular Crystal possibly not be good enough?
