Chapter 393 - Beating People and Getting Paid (1/2)

The girl in the red dress has obviously learned some martial arts. Otherwise the whip will not be so powerful.

She is quite an arrogant young woman. Seeing the little fire fox in a bamboo cage from far away, she comes to Azhi’s stand condescendingly. This girl will never take insignificant others seriously.

Lin Luoran puts a hand on the bamboo cage to stop her from taking the fire fox and then leaving. The red dress girl finally looks at her seriously.

Lin Luoran is more than 1.7 meters high which is kind of tall among Asian women, not to mention in this ancient place. The girl in the red dress can know at a glance that the bracelet with a round translucent pearl on her wrist is very valuable. She wears a very simple bluish white dress but the material is very special and this girl has never seen it before.

Her skin color is not very fair so her facial features don’t look very stunning. However, her eyes are bright, seeming to have the ability to see through everyone. The red dress girl somewhat feels guilty.

“You are so strange. I have paid the money and now you don’t allow me to take the goods?”

This woman is just bullying her relying on her stronger martial arts. The red dress girl feels extremely angry about it. At the end of the street, it gradually becomes noisier and noisier. An old man with gray hair rushes here with some servants and the girl in the red dress immediately changes her face.

Lin Luoran can see that she wants to avoid the people from the end of the street. But what does this have to do with her?

“Is the money enough to buy this little fire fox?” Lin Luoran turns to ask honest Azhi.

Azhi finally realizes it at the moment. He weighs the golden beans in his hands and shakes his head, “Other hunters in the village have captured fire foxes. One fox can be sell at least 12 taels of silver.”

The gold-silver exchange rate is one tael of gold for ten taels of silver. The red dress girl obviously only uses these golden beans as tips. There are no more than one tael of gold in total. Azhi weighs them and feels her price is not reasonable so he disagrees.

Spending a few days with Azhi, Lin Luoran generally knows something about this young boy. He is not very high in emotional intelligence but his IQ is not low. What he believes is that it takes hard work to get paid. Since he said that the fire fox values ten taels of silver, then it must be ten taels—in fact, he is still a little bit too honest. The price has soared and the purchasing power of ten taels of silver has declined seriously. In this case, he should also sell the fire fox at a higher price.

Lin Luoran raises her eyebrow, “Did you hear that?”

The red dress girl is very annoyed, thinking that the two are ripping her off. She then slashes a whip towards Lin Luoran.

Lin Luoran doesn’t want to stoop to this arrogant girl’s level. As her personal ability grows, few people will be so rampant in front of her. A cultivator is still a person. Lin Luoran now gets a little angry. Instead of avoiding it, she grabs the whip.

With a little strength, she pulls the red dress girl off the horse.

Lin Luoran only wants to teach her a small lesson. The old man from the end of the street sees it and thinks she is going to punish the girl. He shouts loudly.

“Our lady is young and immature. If she has offended you, the bigger person does not care about the smaller one’s mistake. Please forgive her, my lady. The old man thanks you for your mercy.”

He is sweaty and finally pushes through the crowd.

Lin Luoran snorts and let go of her hand and the red dress girl falls to the ground. The old man followed by a large group of people encircle this girl immediately. They don’t even ride on horses and just leave the street without looking back.

“Hey, your golden beans!”

The golden beans held by Azhi seem to be burning hot. Azhi grabs a servant and gives them to him.

When these people leave, onlookers begin to gabble. The surname of the red dress girl is Mu. Her family has caravans and always travels between Penglai and Ying. The Mu family is an extremely rich family. People all say that black-faced Azhi and Lin Luoran have offended the Mus and neither of them will get a happy ending.

After gossiping, the onlookers leave immediately. They may be afraid that the Mu family may mess with them.

Lin Luoran doesn’t feel very comfortable after hearing this. She can just leave this place. However, for Azhi’s family, it is really a big deal to offend some wealthy businessmen.

Azhi is totally innocent. He doesn’t seem to realize it at all and is just worrying about who will buy this fire fox after this incident.

Lin Luoran thinks for a while and asks him to go to the noodle shop nearby to wait for her. She will try to contact her family.

Azhi nods. This is just a subordinate county of Feng City. If Lin Luoran’s family has some power in Feng City, her family may own some shops in this county.

Lin Luoran says goodbye to Azhi. Now she obviously needs some mundane currency. The gold from the Dragon Palace in s.p.a.ce is too eye-catching. Ordinary people here only use copper coins and even silver is rare here.

What can she exchange for money? If she just exchanges gold with money, it is totally not worthwhile. The gold of the Dragon Palace is in excellent condition and it is purer than the pure gold of later generations. If she exchanges it with the silver at this era, it will be a total loss. It’s not Lin Luoran’s usual style as a frugal person.

There are still many emeralds absorbing Reiki in s.p.a.ce. Lin Luoran thinks about it and picks a piece of emerald with good texture. She cuts it into many teardrop-shaped small emeralds with Wakan and then melts some gold around them. A set of golden hairpins with emeralds is made.

This is a set of twelve-flower Tian-tsui hairpins. The delicate golden lines of plum petals can be seen; peony petals are extremely thin and of celestial beauty… Lin Luoran has not yet reached the silver shop but she has made this set of hairpins.

As the saying goes, strong horse with strong saddle; only with the excellent packaging, can the valuable jewelry show its dignity and elegance. Lin Luoran takes out an iron pheobe box she made in the mountain and places these flower hairpins in it. It looks much more high-cla.s.s.

Lin Luoran looks at these various flower hairpins and she remembers something else. Baojia is very fond of jewelry design. In the past, she often lamented the loss of ancient art. Many modern skills were not as good as ancient ones and her designs couldn’t be made. If Baojia is awake at this time, she may not have to worry about jewelry skills with cultivators’ ability.
