"In this world, there are many rich people." The old man seemed to have read through his thoughts. He leaned back against the wall, leisurely picked up a dry tobacco stick, and took two puffs. "Little brother, where is this book, do you still want it?"
Jiang Fa Silence.
If you don't have enough money, everything you say is useless.
He just turned around and hadn't taken a few steps.
The old man behind him suddenly stopped him again.
"Wait a minute."
Jiang Fa paused in his steps and turned around with doubtful eyes.
"I have another copy here."
The old man lowered his head and rummaged under the oilcloth for a long time, and finally pulled out another secret book from the bottom layer that was exactly the same as the previous one.
The cover is also made of dark brown coarse cloth, with the same five large characters written on it.
"Great Strength Vajra Art".
Exactly the same.
The old man stretched out his skinny hand and made a gesture. "One thousand taels."
Jiang Fa:"..."
Good guy, I was waiting here.
Directly more than half the price.
The old man still has this kind of cool operation? It's quite fun.
"Little brother, when I do business, the most important thing I talk about is fate. The person just now was not destined to me, so the price was naturally high. Now, now that you are destined to me, the price will naturally be reasonable."
Jiang Fa The corners of his mouth twitched.
God damn fate.
He finally understood that this was definitely not the first time this old man had played this trick.
Under his oilcloth, there might be ten or twenty identical secret books, just waiting for the enemy to come knocking on his door.
As for myself, it was given as a gift from the person who cheated me earlier. Anyway, the old man has a lot of secrets. How much does he sell?
But having said that, this black market is all about getting rich, and business won't come here for a long time. It's a trap one after another. It's normal for this old man to do this.
Seeing the change in his expression, the old man chuckled, "Deal?"
Jiang Fa hesitated for a moment and shook his head. "It's still too expensive."
"Then how much can you pay?" The old man was not annoyed and still asked patiently.
"I..."
Jiang Fa was about to speak when suddenly there were footsteps approaching from behind.
A bloated middle-aged man squeezed in front of the stall without even looking at Jiang Fa.
He reached out and grabbed a few secret books on the ground and flipped through them. His movements were rough and the papers made a clattering sound as he flipped through them.
The old man's face darkened. "Sir, please go through it more gently. It's all paper. I can't bear the force."
The middle-aged man snorted, threw the book in his hand back on the stall, and said in a rough voice, "They are all junk. They don't even have any decent internal skills. Are you an old man who specializes in selling these useless papers that no one wants to fool fools?"
The old man took a drag on his dry cigarette and snorted coldly, "This old stall makes a small profit, and sells mostly scraps and old books, which are not of interest to you. If you want good products, please go to the big ones up front and ask."
The middle-aged man cursed a few more times before leaving with a full stomach.
The old man waited for him to go away, then looked at Jiang Fa again, and whispered, "Little brother, I want to see you fall in love with each other, so I want to give you a thorough explanation. Although this "Great Strength Vajra Art" is incomplete, the work is solid. In this Qingshan County world, five hundred taels can buy a copy of Mystic Rank Lower Grade's body training method. You can't find the second one even with a lantern."
"I only have more than a hundred taels with me." Jiang Fa said half truthfully.
The old man squinted at him for a while, then suddenly said, "Looking at you, you should be a warrior. There are always some useless things on you, right?"
Jiang Fa's heart moved slightly,
This old guy was very slippery. Seeing that he couldn't get much profit, he started to think of his own plan.
"Sometimes, why do you ask?" Jiang Fa asked calmly.
The old man looked at him and shook his head. "What is the most valuable thing for a warrior? It is the secret book of martial arts."
He paused and then added, "I don't care how you got the technique. If you have it, take it out and have a look. If it's suitable, we can interchange it."
Jiang Fa was silent for a moment.
He does have martial arts skills.
Origin-Returning Breath-Concealing Art.
But that is the auxiliary skill of Mid Black Grade, and its value is only higher than that of "Great Strength Vajra Art".
Not to mention how much it means to him.
"I do have a secret book with me."
After thinking for a while, Jiang Fa said, "Yellow Rank Upper Grade, a body technique."
This time it was the old man's turn to be silent.
He took a few puffs of dry cigarette and then said slowly, "Yellow Rank Upper Grade's Shenfa, the store across the street just sold a copy yesterday for two thousand five hundred taels. You have to pay the same price as my secret book."
"Didn't you just say one thousand taels?"
"That's the price of real gold and silver. As for the exchange... it must be an exchange of equal value. Do you think it's a little brother?"
The old man chuckled.
Jiang Fa was a little surprised,
How come this old man can flip out faster than he can flip through a book?
"That's their price." Jiang Fa frowned and said slowly, "My secret book is complete in length. As long as it is a martial arts practitioner, it will not be a problem for anyone to practice. If you resell it, you can sell it for at least three to four thousand taels. It will definitely be more than enough to exchange for your incomplete Kung Fu book."
The old man took two puffs of cigarette and suddenly smiled, showing his smoke-blackened teeth. "You are right, but if I can't sell it, won't I lose money?"
Jiang Fa's expression remained unchanged and he glanced sideways at him. "With your wisdom, how can you still fail to sell it?"
"I didn't expect that I could hide it so well, but you still saw it..." The old man laughed, showing his big yellow teeth. "Then how do you want to change it?"
"Barter, exchange one book for another." Jiang Fa said.
The old man suddenly shook his head like a rattle. "How can Yellow Rank Upper Grade body training method be exchanged for Xuan Rank body training method? It's not the same level, little brother, I have been in this business for decades and I have never made a loss-making business."
"Your "Great Strength Vajra Art" is a fragment." Jiang Fa emphasized.
"My "Wind-Chasing Steps" is complete."
"That's true..."
The old man clicked his tongue and tapped his knees a few times with his thin fingers, as if he was planning something.
After a while, he slowly said, "It's not impossible to exchange, but you have to add another one hundred and fifty taels of silver."
"One hundred taels." Jiang Fa counter-offered.
"One hundred and thirty taels." The old man frowned.
"One hundred taels, not much more."
The old man stared at him for several breaths, and finally sighed, as if he had suffered a huge loss. "That's all, you, a young man, are more picky than an old man like me. Come on, for one hundred taels plus your body technique secret book, this "Great Strength Vajra Art" will be yours."
Jiang Fa nodded and took out the Wind-Chasing Steps secret book that had been hidden in the lining of his jacket.
He had been following this guide for many days, and many of the footers on it had been curled up.
The old man took the Wind-Chasing Steps, turned it over carefully, and after making sure there was nothing wrong with it, he put it into the pocket in his arms.
Then he took out the book "Great Strength Vajra Art" that Jiang Fa had favored before, and handed it over with a smile, not forgetting to tell him, "Let me tell you first, if you buy this technique, it has nothing to do with me. If you have any problems with the practice, or if there are missing words or pages, don't come to me."
Jiang Fa took the secret book and looked through it again. When he saw that there was no problem, he put it in his arms.
He looked at the old man and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
"That's natural."
Finally, under the watch of the old man, he quickly left the stall.
