I Married A Disabled Tyrant After Transmigrating-Chapter 48
Twenty-seven Dragons (1)
The silver coin in the palm of her hand grew hot, and Mu Wanwan was a little puffed up. Gripping the coin, she stood by the side of the road unobtrusively and began thinking about what to buy——
The weather was growing colder, the quilt may not be thick enough. She would also need to buy two more mattresses, if not, should Mister Long’s tail rot again, there would be no way to change it. Besides…
Mu Wanwan lifted her eyes to look at the dark clouds in the sky and was a little worried. It kept raining these days, and the clothes she washed did not dry easily. Was it really because of the dragon at home?
Because it kept raining, she would also have to buy more clothes. The weather was getting colder and colder, and it wouldn’t be good to let Mister Long continue to be a naked dragon. Although the jade bed was very warm, the room was cold. Besides, as she wanted to cultivate spiritual plants, the temperature couldn’t be too low, so she also had to procure heating stones.
In addition, after putting in so much effort to earn some money, she also wanted to buy some meat to reward herself.
As Mu Wanwan thought, she felt that the money she had wasn’t going to hold up to much spending.
She sighed, adjusted the basket on her back, then found a spot with a lot of traffic to begin selling the vegetables.
She had brought so many vegetables out this time, and she couldn’t just bring them back again. Besides, there were still quite a lot of seeds at home, and this basket of vegetables could also fetch quite some copper coins.
“How much are you selling these leafy vegetables for?” Not long after Mu Wanwan set up her stall, an elderly granny who had a basket strapped on her back came over to take a look.
Mu Wanwan thought for a moment and said, “Two copper coins for one catty.”
Her vegetables were all grown with wood spiritual energy. According to the market rate in modern times of two dollars a catty, her pricing shouldn’t be too expensive, right?
“These are just ordinary vegetables, and you’re selling them for two copper coins a catty?” A somewhat harsh voice rang out. It was a middle-aged woman with rather high cheekbones. She had rogue on her cheeks and was pretty well-dressed, and looked like someone who was not to be messed with.
“My vegetables are of pretty good quality. You can take a look, they are much more vibrant than those sold by others.” Mu Wanwan did not argue with her, and only replied succinctly.
The granny was very genial, “What about this radish? How much is it?”
“Radishes are also two copper coins a catty,” said Mu Wanwan placidly.
“You’re asking so much for radishes? Why don’t you just go rob someone?” That middle-aged woman gave Mu Wanwan an incredulous look. “One copper coin a catty, yes or no?”
Mu Wanwan could now understand the feelings of the meat seller when she bargained with her last time. Following the meat seller’s example, she said smilingly, “Non-negotiable.”
“You’re a crazed money-grubber!” The woman seemed to be very angry, but she didn’t move a step.
She had taken notice of Mu Wanwan’s vegetables from the moment when Mu Wanwan began setting up her stall; they were all much larger than other stalls. Also, although she couldn’t become a cultivator, as her family was well-to-do, she had eaten quite a number of good things and was able to feel the existence of spiritual energy moreso than ordinary mortals.
But she was the type who wasn’t willing to spend more money than necessary, and wanted to get a good bargain.
While she was hesitating, the granny was the first to make a move, “I’ll take them all.”
Mu Wanwan was a little surprised at her decisiveness. She estimated that the vegetables weighed about five to six catties, and because she didn’t want to waste time, said, “It’ll be one silver coin for everything. Granny, is that okay?”
“No!” Seeing that the vegetables were all about to be sold, the middle-aged woman burst out hurriedly. “I also want half of it. It’s a little expensive, but so be it.”
“Granny, we saw these vegetables at the same time, I want to buy them too.” The middle-aged woman gave the granny a fake smile and said in a cloying voice.
Mu Wanwan felt a bit uncomfortable, frowned and wanted to speak, but the granny spoke first, “Don’t say that, Sister Hong, how much can an old lady like me eat. I’ll share half of it with you.”
Since the person concerned has already said to share half the goods, Mu Wanwan also didn’t want to delay the time to head home because of quarrelling with others over this trivial matter, so she collected five copper coins from each person and split the vegetables into two portions for the granny and Sister Hong.
“If your vegetables are not tasty, I’ll come to look for you tomorrow!” Sister Hong left a harsh statement before leaving. Mu Wanwan rolled her eyes at her retreating figure.
She guessed that this Sister Hong was probably from a pretty well-off family. Judging from the granny’s attitude, she might even have some influence. But her attitude was obviously of one who wanted to take advantage of others. If it was not for the fact that it would be hard for her to muddle things over with Hong Ye if she didn’t sell the vegetables today, Mu Wanwan wouldn’t have sold them to her.
Mu Wanwan squeezed the ten copper coins in her hand, and without any further delay, hurriedly bought things that she might need to use in the next ten days.
