Chapter 4156 Being Hit On
The cultivator took out a small silk pouch and poured out a dozen seeds from it, grinning and saying, “Miss, these seeds are not ordinary seeds. They are the seeds of the highest grade and there are only a dozen of them in the whole city!”
Feng Jiu glanced at them and saw that the dozen seeds were the size of soybeans, mixed with several colours, and could be seen to be a mixture of several seeds. She picked up a black seed and looked at it, saying, “What kind of seed is this?”
“This… err ha ha, I don’t know what kind of seed this is either, but I asked around and found out that this is the seed of a high grade medicinal herb. Look, each seed is wrapped in a spirit energy, which no other seeds have. If I didn’t think you were a discerning person, I wouldn’t have brought it out!”
“Hahaha, hey you , the one whose surname is Li, you’re lying again about those useless seeds?” A man wearing a fine brocade robe with a fan in his hand swaggered over.
Although he was talking to the cultivator, his eyes were always on Feng Jiu, but he pretended to be modest. After glancing at Feng Jiu, he coughed lightly and said, “Miss, don’t listen to him bragging. No one can grow his seeds, and he’s just trying to fool people from other places. Everyone in the city knows that his seeds are all useless so it’s a scam.”
The cultivator’s face changed, and he looked at the man in brocade, wanting to scold him, but he seemed to be afraid of offending the power behind him, so he just smiled sheepishly: “Young Master Yu, that’s not what I meant to say. I got this seed from the depths of the Verdant Enchanted Forest. It’s really good stuff. This… this isn’t a lie, is it?”
Feng Jiu glanced at the man, holding the seed in one hand and turning it gently. She didn’t say anything, just thoughtfully, not knowing what she was thinking.
“Miss, if you want seeds, you can come with me to my family’s shop. There are all kinds of seeds you want, and they are definitely better than those on the street stall. Moreover, I don’t charge you, and I just want to be friends with you.” The man in the fine brocade robe said with a smile on his face as he gave a slight courteous bow to Feng Jiu. His gaze was fixated on her.
Feng Jiu didn’t look at him, but asked the cultivator, “How much are these seeds?”
“This…” The cultivator originally wanted to ask for a high price, but after the man interrupted him, he couldn’t ask for a high price, but he also couldn’t say a low price. So, after a glance, he smiled and said, “If you like it, then just give me any amount you deem fit!”
Upon hearing this, Feng Jiu smiled and put the seeds back in his hands, saying, “Alright, h.e.l.lp me pack these! And these seeds over here, give me a bag of them as well.”
“Very well.” The cultivator laughed heartily, took the seeds that she chose and handed them to her. She handed him a small pouch, and he reached out to take it. It was very heavy, so he couldn’t help but quietly open a slit to take a peek. He saw that it was full of golden coins, and he immediately smiled happily.
“Miss, come, these are the seeds you wanted. Wait a moment, I have a few more seeds here, I’ll give them to you as well.” The cultivator said, and took out a small bag from the small wooden box he was sitting in, and handed it to Feng Jiu, saying, “If you want to buy seeds in the future, come here to find me, I’ll give you a discount!”
