Online Game: Crazy Skeleton-Chapter 807 - 729: Su Ran Gets Slaughtered

Tripartite Blood Fish, Magic Seahorse, such familiar names...

Su Ran felt an impulse to slap himself in the face.

He had once caught six Tripartite Blood Fish and seven Magic Seahorses, yet he had given them away for nothing. Talk about being trigger-happy, right?

The most infuriating part was that the fisherman even had the nerve to sell them right in front of him, a clear case of bullying, showing a blatant disregard for others! The more he thought about it, the angrier he got!

Wait a minute.

Selling...

"Your Excellency, please wait for a moment, I will be right back."

Time was of the essence, and Su Ran did not dare to linger. He hastily spoke and left the place, sprinting towards the direction of the village.

As soon as Su Ran was out of sight, the sea area envoy could no longer maintain his composure. He plonked down on the ground, grimacing as he rubbed his forehead – diving headfirst into the beach sand had been so damn painful!

...

"Uncle, fisherman uncle, please don’t sell all of them, I’m coming to redeem the fish!"

Su Ran used all his strength to rush toward the village ahead, his heart filled with urgency, praying incessantly in his mind, hoping there would still be some left. Fortunately, he wasn’t far from the village, just a few minutes away, and soon enough, Su Ran arrived back in the village.

"Damn it!"

As soon as he reached the village, Su Ran slapped himself in the face.

To think he didn’t use Wang Cai but chose to run back on foot instead. Could anyone be dumber than him?

Thinking of this, Su Ran became even more depressed...

Forget it, it was just that he was too anxious. He could forgive himself. In his mind, Su Ran began to console himself, and surprisingly, the effect was not bad; his mood improved considerably in an instant.

"Uncle!"

Not far ahead, Su Ran saw the fisherman still vigorously peddling his wares. His heart warmed immediately. He quickened his pace to the fisherman’s stall, and upon seeing that there were still quite a few Tripartite Blood Fish and Magic Seahorses left, the weight in his heart finally lifted.

"Eh? Warrior, why have you come back?"

The fisherman looked at Su Ran with confusion, noticing something peculiar in the young man’s gaze, as if he was about to devour him, and the fisherman’s guard went up instantaneously.

Could it be that the kid had second thoughts and wanted to snatch the fish back?

How could that be allowed?!

Once this thought occurred to the fisherman, his face instantly darkened. He began to envy the old village chief, who had sold out and left in no time, leaving the kid no chance to regret his decision!

"Whoosh!"

The fish on the stall disappeared in an instant, and the fisherman gave an uncomfortable laugh, politely saying to Su Ran, "Warrior, I was feeling a bit tired just now, so I decided to stop selling for a while. I’ll go back and rest, and we can catch up when there’s time!"

Having said that, the fisherman wanted to leave this place of conflict immediately.

"Hold on, fisherman uncle, let’s talk this out nicely, don’t just pack up and leave without a word!"

Seeing the Tripartite Blood Fish and Magic Seahorses disappear before his eyes, Su Ran, who was frantic and turning green with anxiety, quickly stopped the fisherman, calling out to him.

"What, planning to rob now?"

The fisherman’s face turned stern, his tone grew colder, and even his segmented fish spear was clenched tightly in his hand.

"Uncle, what are you thinking?"

Su Ran almost broke out in a sweat from anxiety. He didn’t want to waste precious time and went straight to the point, "I’m here to buy the fish. Who does business like this, pushing customers away the moment they show interest?"

"Buying fish?"

The fisherman was taken aback. Once he realized Su Ran’s intention, he immediately grinned and tucked the fish spear away, saying to Su Ran, "Cough, warrior, you should have said so earlier, you had me worrying for nothing. I almost mistook you for a fish thief just now~!"

Hearing this, Su Ran became even more upset.

Do I look like that kind of person? At the very least, this fish was a gift from me, who would take back what they’ve given?

"Oh, brave warrior, you certainly have an eye for quality, this fish is all fresh..."

The fisherman was setting up his stall again, eagerly touting the tripartite blood fish and magic seahorses, but Su Ran interrupted him before he could finish a sentence.

"Uncle, let’s not gild the fish. This fish was a gift from me, you think I don’t know if it’s fresh?"

Su Ran sighed deeply, his tone filled with profound helplessness, "Let’s cut to the chase, how much do you plan to sell these fish for? I’ll buy them all."

Looking closely at the stall, Su Ran realized that the fisherman didn’t have many fish left, and in a panic, he decided to buy the whole lot.

"Buy them all? Haha, big customer, eh!"

The fisherman’s eyes gleamed, not the least bit embarrassed that the fish were originally Su Ran’s gift. He said nonchalantly, "Warrior, you’re too kind! Seeing as we’re so familiar with each other, I won’t ask for much, just a 10% discount, one fish for 22 gold, the magic seahorses are a bit more expensive, say 35 gold each, how about it?"

"How much in total?"

"There are four tripartite blood fish left and two magic seahorses, 158 gold in total. I’ll knock off another 3 gold for you, so, warrior, 155 gold will do!"

The fisherman said nonchalantly, showing no pain at granting a 3-gold discount; after all, he was getting something for nothing!

"Here’s 155 gold coins, Uncle, make sure you count it."

Su Ran had no choice but to bite the bullet and swallow the loss, taken for a ride by this bastard, it served him right for his misfortune!

Who would believe that someone bought back their own gift at such a high cost?

There was no helping it, for the sake of the subsequent mission, Su Ran endured. Spending 155 gold on six Calamity Avoiding Charms was a steal!

However, just as Su Ran completed the transaction and was busy stuffing fish into his bladder, an NPC dressed like a middle-aged woman walked by and, seeing this scene, exclaimed in surprise, "Wow, fisherman, you’re doing well today, selling all your fish!"

"That’s right, my fish are fresh, they sell themselves!"

The fisherman, having made a tidy profit, was in high spirits, and even his tone had perked up.

Indeed, with money in the pocket, even one’s voice grows stronger!

"Your fish might be good, but they’re too expensive. 10 silver per fish is quite a luxury. The old village chief’s Gold-Scale Lancefish King sells for only 30 silver. I can’t believe you managed to sell out with such high prices."

The middle-aged woman said enviously, then, carrying her basket, she sashayed away.

The air suddenly grew silent.

Su Ran’s hand, which was picking up fish, froze in mid-air, stunned.

The fisherman, seeing sparks beginning to fly from Su Ran’s eyes, immediately sensed trouble and hurriedly chuckled awkwardly before making his escape without another word.

"You filthy swindler, fisherman!!! Stop right there!!!"

Su Ran angrily stuffed the fish into his bladder and roared.

He charged others 10 silver, but me 22 gold and 35 gold even after a 10% discount?

Holy crap!!!

Do I look like an easy mark to him? This isn’t just getting fleeced, this is getting skinned!!!

"It’s your own fault for not haggling. Anyway, brave warrior, I’ve got things to do, I must be going now, no need to see me off, till we meet again~!" freewebnoveℓ.com

The fisherman ran off in a flash, undoubtedly moving at speeds over 80 mph.

At this moment, Su Ran felt his life was bleak, spending money to buy back his own fish and still getting slashed in the process, who could he even complain to?

"You just wait, fisherman!"

Su Ran muttered bitterly and turned to leave, swearing inwardly: I’ll never set foot in this damned village again!

After leaving the village, Su Ran learned his lesson. He summoned Wang Cai to carry him as he sped towards the sea envoy.
