Chapter 19
Wandering On The Streets
She immediately put the dagger back and looked at the man.
“You’re selling such a good thing?”
The man raised his eyes to look at her. Under the dim light, his eyes were dark and deep.
“Wanna buy it?”
His voice was faint, but his tone was a little heavy at the end.
Du Yue laughed without saying anything. She muttered in her heart, ‘It’s no wonder he doesn’t have any business. It would be strange if he could sell anything with that cold att.i.tude of his.’
“How much is this?” Du Yue asked directly. Although the quality of this dagger was not as good as the one she had bought before, it was still a high-quality item. Since she had stumbled upon it today, there was no reason for her not to buy it.
The man’s eyes brightened a little when he saw Du Yue’s serious expression. His tone also became much brighter.
“50,000 each. You can have any item you want from this stall.”
Fifty thousand?!
“What’s wrong? Do you think that it’s a little too expensive? How about 45,000 Yuan for one?”
Du Yue was dumbfounded.
Du Yue put the dagger back in its original place and stood up to look at the man in front of her warily. She was not someone who did not know how to value items. If such a high-quality dagger were to be bought from any antique store, it would cost at least three hundred thousand each.
However, this man in front of her actually told her that it was only 50,000 each?
Du Yue’s first reaction when she heard the price was not that she was lucky to have picked up a bargain, but that the man might be trying to trick her!
Du Yue scanned her surroundings carefully, and then turned around and left without hesitation.
She did not dare to buy it. What if a few burly men came out of the alley and s.n.a.t.c.hed it from her right after she finished buying it?
When He Xing, who had been squatting in front of the stall, saw Du Yue leave without hesitation, he sighed helplessly and rubbed his stomach with his hands.
‘I’m so hungry! I feel like I’m going to starve to death!’
He was so hungry that he even felt dizzy. He barely had the strength to speak. It had not been easy to meet someone who was interested in his weapons, but the moment she heard the price, she was scared off!
He Xing was so hungry that his stomach was growling and his head was spinning. He sighed heavily again.
He was a well-known weapon merchant in interstellar s.p.a.ce, but he could not even find enough money to eat in another world.
This was too ridiculous!
When he was traveling through time, something went wrong and he descended to the world he was in now, and this world was about to end!
The original order of the world still existed, and so did the laws. Right now, he only had a body full of abilities, but no place for him to put them to use.
His storage s.p.a.ce was a weapon s.p.a.ce, and it could only store all kinds of weapons. The star coins and star cards that he had brought with him when he transmigrated could not be used as currency here.
During the day, He Xing sat in a fast food restaurant, watching others gobble down his food on an empty stomach. The fast food place was closed at night, and he had no place to go. He finally found a night market and wanted to sell his weapons in exchange for some money. In the end, he squatted there for more than three hours, but did not even encounter a ghost.
He Xing shrugged helplessly and picked up all of the weapons on the ground. He stored them away and turned to leave.
It seemed that it was not realistic to set up a stall and sell weapons to earn money. He had to think of other ways.
…
After Du Yue returned to the neighborhood, she did not go upstairs immediately. Instead, she took a slow stroll around the neighborhood’s garden.
She could not stop thinking about those weapons and that strange man. No matter how she thought about it, she could not understand the man’s intentions. The apocalypse had not arrived yet, and everyone thought that the high temperature was only temporary. There were no posts about the apocalypse on the internet, so why did this man suddenly have the idea to open a stall and sell weapons so brazenly?
Could it be that selling weapons was just a guise, and this man was actually taking the opportunity to find out more about the situation in their community? Even if the apocalypse did come, Du Yue did not intend to interfere too much with the safety of the other people in the community. Everyone had their own lives, and she could only take care of herself. Still, this was her neighborhood, and she did not want anything bad to happen to the neighborhood.
Du Yue thought for a moment, then turned around and walked out of the area. Who knew that just as she walked out of the gate, she ran into a figure in a hurry.
The two of them collided with each other and quickly separated. Each of them took two steps back and stabilized themselves.
Du Yue frowned and looked over, only to realize that the person she had b.u.mped into was the man who had set up the stall earlier.
