Chapter 578 - 578 Discount
578 Discount
Knowing that Qin Xi needed a large amount of herbs, the shop owner was immediately alerted.
The owner was a middle-aged man named Du Fengyu. He was not as good-looking as Mr. Qin, but he had a refined aura. “Are you sure you want so much? Also, it’s really not easy to find 100-year-old ginseng and Taisui these days. If you really want them, I’m afraid you’ll have to wait for a long time.”
Qin Xi thought for a moment and nodded. “Sure. Once you have the goods, please contact me in time.”
Du Fengyu smiled. “That’s for me. I wonder if it’s convenient for you to tell me why you want so many herbs?”
Mr. Qin lied through his teeth. “Well, I’ve been obsessed with Chinese medicine recently and decided to change my profession to see if I’m talented.”
The corners of Qin Xi’s mouth twitched.
Then, they searched the entire city and finally found a talisman paper shop that was about to close down. This made Qin Xi feel that there were not many ghosts and demons in this world.
“Pick whatever you want. We’ll give you a 20% discount.” The shop owner was a fat man. When he opened his eyes, one couldn’t see his eyeb.a.l.l.s. Just looking at him was… uncomfortable.
As soon as Qin Xi and Mr. Qin entered, the fat man invited them in enthusiastically. It was not easy for him to have customers.
“Come, come, come. If you need anything, just tell me. We have everything here. As long as it’s something you can’t think of, I have it.”
Qin Xi ignored the fat man. She looked around at the cobwebs covering the wall and the counter and then at the thick layer of dust on the gla.s.s window, not knowing what to say.
She looked at the fat man. “20% off?”
The fat man scratched his nose awkwardly. “Um, the price of the things in this shop is very affordable, so 20% is already the lowest. I can’t go any lower.”
When he said this, he felt guilty. However, he had no choice. He had been here for three years. In a few days, he would have to pay the rent. If he couldn’t pay the rent this time, he would probably have to sleep on the bridge. He thought that he would rip Qin Xi off while he could. Anyway, they wouldn’t see each other again.
Qin Xi did not care about the discount. She could tell that the fat man was poor. She raised her chin. “Show me a few talisman papers.”
The fat man immediately went to the counter. “Alright.”
He opened the gla.s.s window that had not been opened for a long time. Perhaps because it had been too long, the door was already a little blunt. After pulling for a long time, the fat man, who was already sweating profusely, still could not open it. He was afraid that he would break the gla.s.s if he pulled too hard, so the more anxious he was, the more he could not open it.
Qin Xi was speechless. She placed her fingertips on the gla.s.s window and circulated the Mystic True Qi in her body. Just as Mr. Qin was wondering what his daughter was doing, the gla.s.s door shattered.
Fragments fell to the ground.
Mr. Qin looked at the fragments on the ground and then at Qin Xi. He felt that it must be his daughter’s doing.
However, at the thought that he was about to make money, the fat man immediately perked up. He took out three pieces of talisman paper made of various materials and introduced them to Qin Xi. “These three are the most expensive and the best in our shop. They can usually be used to protect the house, ward off disasters, ward off evil spirits, and exorcize ghosts.”
Qin Xi touched the material. Although she was not too satisfied, she decided to make do with it!
