Chapter 30 – Deliberately Making Things Difficult
When it was Ji Fengyan's turn, everyone gazes landed on her. Pair after pair of eyes, all of themfull of amus.e.m.e.nt, laughter, and disdain.
Throughout Ji City, there were very few rare ores that could compare with an Exquisite Gold Ore which was valued at thirteen thousand gold coins. n.o.body would believe that the stone behind Ji Fengyan could open an even higher price.
The shop's manager looked at Ji Fengyan. Different from how prudently he acted towards Su Lingsheng, his gaze was a bit casual as he faced her. ”This guest, your stone's minimum price is one hundred gold coins. According to our rules here, opening such a big stone costs three gold coins. Are you sure you want to open it?”
After he finished speaking, he sized up the plainly dressed Ji Fengyan with a deeper meaning in his gaze.
”Certain.” She said decisively.
”Then I'll have to trouble you to pay first.” He responded impolitely.
Ji Fengyan slightly raised her brows and looked at the manager who was deliberately making things difficult. Her lips raised into a smiling but not smiling arc, ”The money needs to be paid first? If I didn't remember incorrectly, just a few moments ago, this Young Lady Su Lingsheng didn't have to pay first.”
He looked at Ji Fengyan with a bit of impatience, ”Young Lady Su is our store's old customer and has a venerable status, naturally there is no possibility that she would avoid payment. However, this is your first time here. What's more… Whether your are able to pay the one hundred and three gold coins is still up for discussion. We do not sell on credit, so I hope you will cooperate.”
Everyone was waiting to watch Ji Fengyan's good show. If she couldn't take out the money, then there was basically no way for her to gamble with Su Lingsheng. She would have to forfeit and directly lose the gamble.
Gazes with bad intentions watched Ji Fengyan from all directions, as if everybody was waiting for her to lose to Su Lingsheng and crawl a lap around the city.
