Invincible Little School Doctor-Chapter 1925: "Fair" Prices

"Is this how you guard the store? Hmm, you just lie in here and think that’s guarding the store?"

Brother Zeng’s voice came from that small door.

"Boss, I’m sorry..."

A pitiable voice came from the small door. Ye Haochuan felt it sounded like a mouse that had been run over by a herd of elephants.

"Hmph! I drove away that cousin of yours. How dare he act arrogantly in the shop under the name of our Legendary Chamber of Commerce? If it weren’t for the sake of your elders, I would have killed him today!"

Brother Zeng’s voice came out from the small door once again.

"What, how dare he do such a thing? Isn’t this ruining our reputation?"

That pitiable voice echoed in Ye Haochuan’s ears once more, but this time, the owner of the voice sounded very angry: "Boss, don’t worry. I’ll go and tell his father, and make sure he disciplines him properly!"

"Hmph, you’d better do that. Come with me."

Brother Zeng snorted, opened the small door, and a man looking in his thirties followed him out of the room.

This man seemed much more humble than the previous "Shop Assistant". Moreover, his Nascent Soul Late Stage cultivation made Ye Haochuan feel rather normal.

If even a random shop assistant was an Immortal Transformation expert, he really would want to stop here and head straight back to Earth.

"Go see how much this receipt’s items are worth."

Brother Zeng came to Ye Haochuan’s side, picked up the receipt, and handed it to the man, then said to Ye Haochuan: "Brother Ye, he is the shopkeeper of this pawnshop. I’ll have him assess the real value of your things."

"Thank you, Brother, for today’s incident..."

Ye Haochuan glanced at the man, then smiled wryly and said: "If it weren’t for you, I’d be in big trouble today."

"Ah... Brother, this was our Chamber’s fault. Here, take this."

Brother Zeng took out a delicate-looking jade token, intricately inscribed with the word ’Legendary’ in ancient script.

This jade token was indeed dainty, slightly larger than a button, with very fine engravings.

"Brother, what is this thing?"

Ye Haochuan took the jade token curiously, examined it, and found it to be extremely hard — even with all his strength, he couldn’t leave a mark on it.

Ye Haochuan estimated that even if he went all out and struck this small jade token with the Divine Concealment Sword, it would remain completely unscathed.

"This is our Legendary Chamber’s Supreme Jade Token. Brother, with this token, you receive a fifty percent discount on any of our industries’ services. However, regarding the previous incident, we ask for your forgiveness."

Brother Zeng said lightly.

"My goodness, Boss, have you gone mad?"

The pawnshop’s shopkeeper, who had followed Brother Zeng out of the small door, exclaimed with disbelief as he saw the jade token, hardly believing his eyes.

"What, do I need your permission to issue a Supreme Jade Token?"

Brother Zeng’s eyes sharp as lightning, swept over the shopkeeper, causing him to shiver and almost drop the Treasure-Level Late Stage magical treasure that belonged to Ye Haochuan.

"No... no... Boss, I just thought, giving him this is a bit wasteful, isn’t it? This is the highest-grade jade token in our Legendary Chamber, even some clan leaders of large families don’t qualify for it, and you just give it to an ordinary person..."

The shopkeeper’s eyes revealed a complex expression, his gaze sweeping back and forth between Ye Haochuan’s face and the Supreme Jade Token in his hands.

Damn, even some clan leaders of large families don’t qualify to receive this?

Upon hearing this, Ye Haochuan became as excited as a pinwheel spinning in the wind, an unparalleled thrill spreading through him that couldn’t be stopped. He flipped the token and pocketed it without hesitation.

"Have you calculated it? How much are Brother Ye’s items worth in total?"

Seeing that the shopkeeper was staring at Ye Haochuan, Brother Zeng glared at him with wide eyes. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

"Calculated, it’s calculated!"

The shopkeeper quickly brought Ye Haochuan’s Treasure-Level Late Stage magical treasure and a bottle of liquid spiritual energy to him.

"This is..."

He glanced at Ye Haochuan and realized he didn’t know how to address him.

"This is Ye Haochuan, Brother Ye."

Boss Zeng said quickly when he noticed.

"Junior Brother Ye, your Treasure-Level Late Stage magical treasure, I’ll offer you one hundred eighty low-grade red crystals, and for this liquid spiritual energy, I’ll give you forty low-grade red crystals per drop, how does that sound?"

The shopkeeper, unlike Brother Zeng, didn’t dare address Ye Haochuan as Brother. Holding Ye Haochuan’s items, he said: "Junior Brother Ye, do you want to pawn these items?"

Damn, one hundred eighty low-grade red crystals, and forty low-grade red crystals per drop, that’s way more than what the shop assistant said!

After hearing this, Ye Haochuan’s eyes widened. If he had foolishly taken those eighty-two red crystals and left, he would have lost a lot more!

"Make it two hundred red crystals and fifty red crystals; let’s keep it a round number!"

Brother Zeng, seeing Ye Haochuan’s silence, thought he was dissatisfied and made a sweeping gesture: "Brother Ye has our Supreme Jade Token, so he deserves a different kind of treatment."

"Brother, these are roughly their values if we pawn them, you see..."

Brother Zeng said and then turned to look at Ye Haochuan.

"Alright, alright, let’s go with that!"

Ye Haochuan couldn’t be any more satisfied with such a "fair" price.

After exchanging thanks with Brother Zeng, Ye Haochuan completed the exchange with the pawnshop. He swapped one Treasure-Level Late Stage magical treasure for two hundred low-grade red crystals.

And for twenty drops of liquid spiritual energy, he got one thousand low-grade red crystals. Ye Haochuan could assert that the quality of these crystals was at least twice as high as the ones the shop assistant had offered before.

Ye Haochuan wasn’t sure why Brother Zeng helped him like this. But his instinct told him that Brother Zeng had no harmful intentions.

Besides, he’s just a Nascent Soul Mid-Stage guy, if Brother Zeng had any ill intentions, wouldn’t it be easier to just go after him directly?

With this thought, Ye Haochuan mentally gave Brother Zeng a "good man" card. At his lowest point, Brother Zeng helped him tremendously, and he decided to repay him tenfold or hundredfold once he grew stronger.

After some small talk with Brother Zeng, Ye Haochuan bid him farewell, as he still had to go to the Half-Mountain Residence to find that person with half-black, half-white hair to save Sophia — he really didn’t want to linger in one place for long.

"Boss, do you really need to treat him like this? He just looks like a poor kid. With what little he has, how can he afford to buy anything from our store?"

After Ye Haochuan left, the pawnshop shopkeeper sidled up to Brother Zeng and muttered.

"Heh, a poor kid? Let me tell you, half a day ago, a guard commander at the Heavenly Road nearly offended someone from the Half-Mountain Residence. From the information I got, that person, in terms of appearance, cultivation, and age, matches this Ye Haochuan closely."

Brother Zeng smirked and then, in a blur, disappeared. However, his words left the shopkeeper utterly shocked.

"From Half-Mountain Residence? No wonder..."

The shopkeeper gasped sharply, his heart full of admiration for Boss Zeng. His keen intelligence and decisiveness were beyond compare.
