In Douluo Continent, what is a martial soul? It's like Luckin Coffee.

Chapter 198 The White Tiger Duke's Mansion is just a...
"No no no."

The cat-eared girl quickly shook her head.

"So what exactly is the price?"

It's neither 100,000 gold soul coins per month nor 100,000 gold soul coins per year.

Could it be something like 100,000 gold soul coins for half a year?

If that's the case, with such a large area, if all else fails, just open a Luckin Coffee shop.

"The price of this shop is 100,000 gold soul coins."

As soon as the cat-eared girl finished speaking, Bai Ran couldn't help but pick at his ears, wondering if he had misheard.

One hundred thousand gold soul coins for a large shop with an area of ​​over 500 square meters in the center of Star Luo City?
Bai Ran: Even if you dare to sell it, I wouldn't dare to buy it.

"Uh... 100,000 gold soul coins? Miss, are you trying to trick me?"

In cases like this, the price is less than 10% of the market price.

Bai Ran could guess with his toes that there was definitely a huge pit inside.

Even if the house is haunted, it shouldn't have fallen to such a low price.

There's a problem, and it must be a big problem.

"Guest, you can rest assured about that."

The deed is right here with me, if you're satisfied with the house.

After you pay, this shop is yours.

As the cat-eared girl spoke, she took out the property ownership certificate of the shop from her bosom.

It also bears the official seal of Xingluo.

It doesn't look fake.

After all, in the capital city, right under the emperor's nose, anyone who dares to do such a thing would lose more than ten heads.

However, nothing comes for free.

For a moment, Bai Ran was unsure of what to do.

Why did you sell this shop to me at such a low price?
Based on the current low prices in Star Luo City, your shop is worth at least two million gold soul coins.

If it's a small bargain, like a monthly rent of 10,000 gold soul coins, you can negotiate it down to 8000 gold soul coins per month.

But this is a situation where you get millions of gold soul coins for nothing.

Before figuring out the specific reasons, Bai Ran wouldn't be tempted by momentary pleasure, as doing so would likely bring him considerable trouble.

"I... I just feel a connection with the guests."

The cat-eared girl said very seriously.

However, there was a slight hint of panic in his tone.

It seems there's some hidden story behind it.

Seeing this, Bai Ran didn't ask any more questions and turned to walk out the door.

Although he was fairly satisfied with the shop, he didn't want to kick a ticking time bomb that might explode inside him.

"Guest, please don't leave. If you think it's too expensive, 9 gold soul coins is negotiable."

Seeing that Bai Ran was about to leave, the cat-eared girl panicked and rushed up to hug Bai Ran's leg, her voice even sounding like she was about to cry.

"It's not about the amount of money, it's about the problem with your shop."

A shop worth millions of gold soul coins is being sold for only 100,000 gold soul coins. Even a fool would know that this is a bad deal.

"Guest, uh..."

"Still unwilling to tell the truth?"

"I'm afraid that if I tell you, you won't buy it."

Bai Ran was the tenth customer the cat-eared girl encountered. The previous nine customers were too scared to buy after hearing the conditions, even when the price was reduced to 50,000 gold soul coins.

"Tell me what happened."

"Let's get this straight, if the shop is haunted, you'd better not mention it."

In other fantasy worlds, where ghosts and gods exist, Bai Ran might believe it. But this is Douluo Continent.

As a time traveler, no one understands Douluo Continent better than himself.

A ghost? Why would someone with a ghost-type martial soul come to the shop and cause trouble? What's the point?

And judging from the cat-eared girl's ordinary appearance, she would probably be so frightened by the sight of a Soul Master that her legs would go weak. How could she possibly offend him?

"Actually, it's nothing much. It's just that the White Tiger Duke's Mansion has also taken a liking to this shop and has declared that whoever buys this shop is going against the White Tiger Duke's Mansion."

After saying this, the cat-eared girl glanced cautiously at the boy in front of her, then quickly lowered her head, not daring to meet his gaze.

The truth is, it was the second young master of the White Tiger Duke's mansion who took a liking to her, and her mother desperately needed a large sum of money to save her life. (Is this a plot similar to Jiang Nannan's?)
Originally, being favored by the second son of the Duke's mansion was a blessing, even if it meant becoming a concubine, it was almost a leap in social class.

But ever since the Duke's second son returned from Shrek a year ago, he has been crippled.

Because he lost his fertility, his personality became distorted. Almost no girl with any beauty that he took a fancy to and brought back to his mansion lived for more than a month.

The cat-eared girl is named Sisi. Because she often wears a pair of cat ears and has a face that is somewhat similar to that of Miss Zhu, she is likely to become the next target of the Duke's second son.

In order to prevent the shop from being ruined, Sisi had no choice but to sell the shop left by her father in a hurry, and then ran away with her mother afterwards.

"White Tiger Duke's Mansion?"

Bai Ran: Who do we have here? It turns out to be the Duke of Yin Hu's mansion.

"Guest, you... never mind, I knew it."

Seeing Bai Ran deep in thought, Xixi immediately realized that her shop was probably not going to sell.

Within Star Luo City, the White Tiger Duke's Mansion holds power second only to the one in the Imperial Palace.

Even a powerful figure at the Title Douluo level would not want to antagonize the White Tiger Duke's Mansion, let alone the young man before them.

“If it’s just the White Tiger Duke’s mansion, I’ll buy this shop.”

"Ok?"

This time it was Sisi's turn to rub her ears, wondering if she had misheard.

"That's the White Tiger Duke's mansion, guest. If you encounter any trouble in the future, I won't refund a single gold soul coin."

They'd already run away by then, bro. They don't offer after-sales service for bags anymore.

"Don't worry, even if the White Tiger Duke's Mansion comes looking for trouble, I'm not afraid."

In my eyes, the White Tiger Duke's mansion is just a piece of junk.

Sisi: That was close! I almost misheard it as "The White Tiger Duke's Mansion is just a blabbermouth." (Six hundred and sixty-six, is there a second level?)

……

"Are you really sure, guest?"

Upon seeing the boy in front of her pull out a black card worth 100,000 gold soul coins, the cat-eared girl, Sisi, couldn't help but rub her eyes.

Is there anyone in this world who is not afraid of the power of the White Tiger Duke's Mansion?

Especially since this is Xingluo City, sometimes the words from the White Tiger Duke's mansion are even more effective than those from the imperial palace.

It is no exaggeration to say that when a capable and powerful ruler emerged in the White Tiger Duke's Mansion, the hereditary title instantly transformed into a hereditary imperial throne.

"You regretted it?"

"No no no..."

Sisi shook her head repeatedly. Since it was so rare for a wealthy person (a sucker) to be willing to take over, she naturally hoped to sell it as soon as possible.

With this money, she could take her mother and move to another place to live.

No need to worry anymore that she will become a tool for the Duke's second son to vent his frustrations, just like those unfortunate women.

You asked why Dai Huabin couldn't find professional sex workers to vent his frustrations, but instead sought out respectable women?
Perhaps it's because in Dai Huabin's eyes, the women in those entertainment venues were already past their prime.

In contrast, the women from ordinary families, though they may be like wildflowers by the roadside, are whole and complete.

It would better satisfy his inferiority complex caused by losing his fertility.

As for playing around with noble ladies?

Since Dai Huabin became disabled, no noble ladies have paid him any attention. Even the Zhu family girl he was betrothed to returned the marriage certificate, indicating that they should not contact each other again.
