Chapter 309 Regular Customer (Happy Children's Day)

"The red moon hangs above the lake~"

“The hot charcoal fire warms the cold tea~”

"The pine forest in the middle of the night~"

"A new day has not yet woken up~"

Humming a catchy ballad, Brown the traveling businessman Brown, who had just sent off a distinguished guest, was in a good mood, and he was sorting out the supplies slowly.

"Friend, do you have anything good to sell here?"

"There is nothing here that is bad!"

Brown, who heard the sound, turned around while talking, and there was a young man in front of the booth picking up the items he put on the booth.

"You are a traveling merchant. It stands to reason that you should have a lot of precious items from other cities, but the ones on this stall are really ordinary. Look at this mirror. The workmanship is no different from the ones sold in the grocery store in Neil City. .”

Playing with the bronze mirror in his hand, Zhu Jue pointed at the truck beside Brown with disdain, and then said,

"With such a big car, I thought there must be something good, but it turned out to be a good looking product, which is really disappointing."

"Sir, it's not that I don't have good things, but that there are too few people in Neil City who can afford good things, so what kind of goods do you want to see when you come here!"

As a businessman, the most intolerable thing is naturally that one's own goods are belittled. Brown still has a smile on his face, but his words are not without sarcasm.

"Ha, you take me for those poor ghosts?"

Seeing that the other party was in the suit, Zhu Jue was unambiguous. He took out a honey-colored agate stone from his pocket and slapped it on the booth. He raised his chin and said,

"In Neil City, I, Tony Stark, have never seen anyone richer than my family!"

The moment the gemstone appeared, Brown's gaze was completely attracted to him. The nature of the businessman made him subconsciously want to grab it behind him, but before he stretched out his hand, the gemstone had already returned to Zhu Jue's hand.

Only then did Brown formally look at the young man in front of the booth.

Although the clothes on his body are not common clothes of nobles or wealthy people, they are obviously not ordinary clothes in terms of workmanship and materials. He has fair skin, well-proportioned figure, and quite outstanding temperament. He is definitely not a commoner in the market!

"Please forgive my ignorance. You said that you are the young master of the Stark family. How dare I offend you. These goods are indeed not qualified to appear in front of your eyes. I will replace them for you immediately!"

God knows who the Stark family and this Tony Stark in front of him are, but Brown still expressed his deep admiration for the Stark family to Zhu Jue, a counterfeit, without saying a word. The goods at the bottom of the box are replaced by the booth.

It's just that this new batch of replacement goods still can't satisfy Zhu Jue.

It's not that Brown's goods are inferior. In fact, the music box that Zhu Jue is holding in his hand can be regarded as a relatively high-end handicraft in this era. However, how could Zhu Jue come to buy this kind of handicraft? , to know that in the real world even the cheapest MP3 is much more upscale than this stuff.

What he wants is a special item that can only be produced in the dream world

Pursing her lips, Zhu Jue was about to add more fire.

"The quality of these things of yours is not bad, but you think they are worthy of my gems?"

With a honey-colored agate stone between her fingertips, Zhu Jue deliberately placed it in the sunlight, the crystal clear honey-colored luster dazzled Brown.

"You intend to sell it?"

"Of course, if I'm not going to sell it, what to do with it, forget it, you only have so much stuff, I'd better go to the jewelry store in Neil City to check the situation."

Zhu Jue shrugged his shoulders, looked distressed, and turned to leave.

"Wait, please give me another chance!"

Seeing the gem that was about to go away from him, Brown finally couldn't bear to turn around, walked quickly to the back of the truck, and after a while of tumbling, he returned to the back of the booth with a fist-sized object tightly wrapped in cloth strips.

"This is a pearl I bought in Hailanlis half a year ago. It is said that a local sailor got it from a very special shell. I think it is more than enough to exchange for the gemstone in your hand. Please come with me The back of the van, where I can't open it."

"interesting."

Holding the agate stone in his hand, Zhu Jue smiled, and followed Brown to the gap between the truck and the rear wall.

The cloth strips were gradually uncovered, and a deep blue light flashed in the shadow cast by the tall truck.

Zhu Jue clenched his left hand, which was hanging casually by his side before, and fixed his eyes on the dark blue pearl in Brown's hand. To be exact, it was a little bit above the pearl, where there was a huge white sharp claw!

Just like Zhu Jue's state when he got the moonlight wine for the first time, the appearance of the dark blue pearl once again attracted Nian Beast.

It likes this pearl very much.

This is good stuff!
"Do you think this pearl can be exchanged for the gemstone in your hand?"

For some reason, Brown always felt a little depressed from just now, as if a stone had been pressed on his heart, he was a little out of breath, and asked reluctantly with a pale face.

"Pearls for gems, or my rare honey-colored agate stone, Mr. Brown's business acumen is indeed inferior to what you think I can use this pearl for?"

No matter how much he wanted this pearl in his heart, Zhu Jue remained calm on the surface.

"This is not an ordinary pearl, it has a magical effect, just look at it"

Brown took his own water jug ​​from the side, held the pearl in his palm, opened the lid, and brought the mouth of the jug close to the pearl, but did not actually pour out the water.

Just when Zhu Jue was in doubt, the dark blue radiance on the surface of the pearl suddenly became a little stronger, and then the water in the kettle dripped out automatically, and began to form a small water ring around the pearl, which lasted for a full three seconds before dissipating.

"Now you shouldn't feel that you are losing money, how about one for one?"

Knowing that these rich people like these magical things, Brown noticed that the other party was a little moved, and hurriedly said.

"Your pearl is a bit interesting, you can change it, but you have to answer a few questions for me."

Zhu Jue, who was already happy in his heart, pursed his lips, and then asked in a "difficult" way,

"You are a businessman. Since you are willing to exchange with me, it must be profitable. What are you going to do with this gem?"

"This"

Brown obviously has some scruples. If the other party doesn't want to trade anymore, wouldn't he lose a lot?
"Give you the gem, the deal is considered established, can we talk about it now?"

Putting the jewel into Brown's hand, taking back the pearl and putting it in his pocket, Zhu Jue patted Brown on the shoulder, motioning him to relax.

At this point in the business conversation, Zhu Jue's purpose was partially completed, and this part was an extra, which was a surprise, because he came to find this traveling merchant, and he didn't originally come to buy things.

"Since you want to know, let me tell you the truth, this gem is just a gem in your hands, but it is different in my hands. I have a regular customer who has been buying this kind of gem." Items, especially this kind of gemstone, she told me about this kind of thing specifically, and said that she was willing to buy it at a high price. Originally, I planned to sell this pearl to him or her, but this time the price he and she gave was a bit low. So I didn't take out the pearl on purpose, and I was going to sell it later. Speaking of which, I have to thank her, otherwise, how could I make such a big deal with you."

"Frequent customer? Aren't you a traveling merchant? You're just a person who runs around. Why do you have regular customers in Neil City?"

Grasping the key information revealed by Brown's words, Zhu Jue narrowed his eyes and asked again.

"I can't say that. I'm a businessman, so I still have the reputation I should have. Disclosing customer information is a very serious act of dishonesty in our business."

When it came to regular customers, Brown refused bluntly, without giving Zhu Jue any chance to ask questions.

"Oh, it seems I'm taking the liberty."

Asking a question was rejected by the other party, but Zhu Jue didn't look unhappy at all.

Just because the businessman doesn't say it doesn't mean he can't guess it.

It is necessary to hide the identity, purchase various magical items, and use Neil City as the trading place, plus the previous acquaintance of the black swan with this businessman.

No need to think about the identity of this frequent visitor as a black swan.

On the other hand, if Black Swan believed in this businessman so much that he even became his frequent customer, there is no doubt that this businessman must have abilities that other traveling businessmen cannot match.

"If I want to charge those things too, I want everything that your regular customer wants, and I guarantee that my quotation will be higher than hers. How about it, do you consider it?"

For Zhu Jue, this is a channel to obtain treasures right in front of him. How can a foreigner who is unfamiliar with his place of life compare to the familiarity of these traveling businessmen with this world, let alone that he can only stay in this world Three days, and they are indeed traveling around all year round. There is no comparison between the two in terms of the treasure hunting time alone!
Zhu Jue has no reason to miss this kind of good opportunity, even if it may be a channel that Black Swan finally found.

After all, business is business, and the one with the highest price wins. There is no such thing as first come, first served.

"Of course, I'm a businessman. All my goods are for generous guests. If your price is higher, then I guarantee that everything will be yours."

Unsurprisingly, Brown ditched his regulars without hesitation after hearing that Zhu Jue was willing to pay a higher price.

Making money is the most important thing, and talking about relationships hurts money.

"Then the two of us are considered cooperation. How should I find you in the future? Traveling merchants should be running around, and I don't often stop in Neil City."

Zhu Jue's time to enter the dreamland depends on the gentleman. If he misses it every time, it will not be a waste of time.

"Now it's June [-]st, I will come here again on August [-]st, and so on, every two months, I will return to Neil City, that's what I agreed with that regular customer, It hasn't changed in a few years."

"I see, it's the first day of every two months."

Black Swan chose this time point, which means that she can guarantee that she can come here on time. Zhu Jue and her are on the same team, so naturally she can come here on time.

Wait a few years?

"You just said that regular customer has been doing business with you for several years?"

Zhu Jue suddenly flashed the end of Brown's sentence in his mind, suddenly widened his eyes, pressed Brown's shoulder, and asked in a deep voice.
