Not only did the people from the Chen Family Stronghold shake their heads, but even those who had been watching the show also shook their heads one after another.
This kid, did he get kicked in the head by a donkey?
No wonder this old man can keep scamming people; there are too many fools and not enough scammers.
Chen Fan turned around and said, "I know this old man is dishonest and sells fake goods, but what if, just what if, there’s something genuine in there? Wouldn’t it be a huge win if I bought it back?"
After saying that, he winked at the crowd.
"Chen..."
Gu Ze was about to say something, but Gu Jianghai placed a hand on his shoulder, "Alright, Chen Fan certainly has his reasons for doing this."
Chen Guodong and the others beside them also remained silent.
Indeed, Xiaofan didn’t seem like someone who could be easily fooled, could it be that he really stumbled upon something valuable?
"..."
Gu Ze was speechless.
What reason could there be?
Giving money to that old scammer is worse than giving it to me.
"Old man, you heard them."
Chen Fan looked at the old man with a helpless expression on his face,
"Everyone thinks your stuff is fake, so for these secret manuals, I can offer fifty at most, not a penny more. If you agree, we can make the deal, but if not, we’ll each go our own way."
To be honest, he initially came with the intention to get things for free, without paying a penny, but after obtaining the [Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill], he changed his mind.
Because he needed to complete this martial art, he had to get the[Thirteen Grand Protectors’ Cross Training] and the[Golden Bell Shield].
Apart from trying to get these from this old man, there were no other options at the moment.
If he asked for them directly, it might arouse suspicion in the old man; even if the latter did have these techniques, he might not hand them over honestly, and could even demand an exorbitant price.
Therefore, it was better to pretend to be a novice and buy all the secret manuals at once. Next time, if nothing unexpected happens, there is a chance of finding a new batch of martial arts here.
If he got things for free, then even if a different batch of techniques was sold next time, it would be difficult to use the same trick again.
As the saying goes, you can’t catch wolves without trapping lambs.
Fifty yuan for three martial arts, he would definitely profit, and the old man wouldn’t lose out either, a win-win.
The old man then showed a pained expression, "Young man, your haggling is a bit ruthless, isn’t it? You’ve cut the price in half, that’s too low. Let’s say at least this number!"
He stretched out his right hand and showed an eight.
"Eighty yuan? Why don’t you just rob us?"
Gao Yang burst out immediately.
"Exactly, Xiaofan, let’s not buy it. What if they’re all fake? Wouldn’t we take a huge loss?"
Liu Yong echoed.
Inwardly, Chen Fan gave them thumbs up, "Alright, if you don’t agree, then forget it."
"Hey!"
The old man became anxious, stomping his feet, "Fine! Fifty it is! You take them all! Oh! What bad luck I have today, to meet you all, lost a lot, really lost big today!"
He kept saying that, his eyes turning red, yet inwardly he was overjoyed.
His cost was just a few pieces of paper and some ink, and he made fifty yuan in one go!
Although there were indeed some genuine items inside, they weren’t complete, so they were useless even if bought back.
This silly boy, he really thought he made a big profit?
Such a fat sheep, who knows how long it will be before he encounters another. Oh, if only he could meet such a fool every day, how wonderful would that be?
"Good."
Chen Fan didn’t delay, handed over fifty yuan, and then gathered the secret manuals on the street stall into his arms.
