If you put these words together in the auction section, you can't get them for less than a million.
Now, it's priced at 100,000 and lies in a plastic basket in the clearance section.
Xia Yu calmly put the egg back in its place, pretending to be nonchalant, and looked at an ordinary egg next to him that was priced at ten thousand.
"Boss, how much is this one?"
The stall owner was startled awake by his voice. He rubbed his eyes, glanced at him, and said, "Ten thousand, no bargaining."
"Oh..."
Xia Yu picked up the egg worth ten thousand, examined it from all angles, and then put it down.
"What about this one?"
He pointed to the grayish-brown discarded egg.
The middle-aged man glanced in the direction of his finger, and his expression immediately became subtle.
"That one...that one is expensive, 100,000."
He sat up straight. "To tell you the truth, young man, that egg came from an auction house. It was auctioned off for over a million dollars because it had a rare dual attribute of being enhanced with mental energy. However, the buyer couldn't hatch it, so I bought it. If you want to buy it, you do so at your own risk. No returns or exchanges."
"So miserable?"
Xia Yu looked skeptical. "Then you dare to sell it for 100,000?"
"At cost price, the purchase price alone was over 80,000 yuan!"
The middle-aged man looked pained. "I thought I had a lot of experience in hatching eggs, and I figured I might be able to hatch one, but... well, tell me, do you want it or not?"
Xia Yu scratched his head, feigning hesitation.
"Could you make it cheaper? I'm a bit short on cash, so I just want to try my luck with an egg."
"You want it? How much are you willing to pay?"
The uncle's eyes lit up.
Clearly, he'd been holding onto this egg for more than just a day or two; getting rid of it would be a victory.
Thirty thousand.
Thirty thousand?
The middle-aged man's face fell. "Young man, are you trying to bargain or rip me off? I'll lose everything, even my underwear, for 30,000!"
Xia Yu smiled shyly, "Brother, I'm a student..."
"You're a student? You can't be a beast!"
The boss waved his hand, "This price is not negotiable."
Xia Yu had a rough idea of the price, and asked again, "How about we compromise and make it 50,000?"
The middle-aged man held up a finger and gestured a number: "Eighty thousand, that's the lowest I can go."
"Seventy thousand."
Xia Yu gritted his teeth, revealing an expression that said, "This is all I have left."
"I only have 70,000 in my account, not a penny more."
Although I still have more than 100,000 yuan left, I can't just buy one egg.
In addition, the raw materials for making energy cubes, such as spirit fruits, also cost a lot of money.
In short, in the early stages of starting a business, every penny must be carefully calculated.
After Xia Yu quoted the price, the uncle hesitated.
The difference between 100,000 and 70,000 is a loss of 30,000.
But if he continues to press it down, who knows how much longer this egg will remain in his basket.
The rule in the discount section is that the longer it sits, the less valuable it becomes. Eventually, it'll be completely worthless and you won't be able to sell it for even 70,000.
"...Seventy thousand it is."
The middle-aged man sighed, "But let me make this clear beforehand: no refunds or exchanges. Don't come looking for me if there are any problems."
"make a deal."
After Xia Yu scanned the code and paid, he took the eggs that the vendor had packed in a box and held them in his arms.
After walking a few steps, he heard the older man mutter behind him, "Another hothead..."
Xia Yu's lips curled up slightly, but he didn't turn around.
A hothead?
We'll find out who's the hothead once this egg hatches.
Chapter 9 The Million-Dollar Evacuation from the Pet Trading Market
Xia Yu did not leave immediately.
I came to the Shanghai pet trading market to buy pets; one egg is definitely not enough.
He continued browsing the discount section, secretly scanning the catalog.
With the surprise of the first egg as a foundation, Xia Yu felt much more relaxed and was more at ease while scanning.
As I walked around a corner stall, I received another Pokédex.
A grayish-white egg, mixed in with a pile of mixed-color eggs, was labeled "Little Lark Egg, Race Level: High, Price: 13888".
The images scanned from the encyclopedia were quite different.
[Blue Pheasant Egg]
[Attribute: Wind]
[Energy Level: 3]
[Race Tier: Overlord]
【Special Feature: Gale Wings】
[Qualifications: Excellent]
Dominant race, excellent aptitude, over ten thousand yuan.
Another misjudged egg.
In fact, the eggshell patterns of the little lark's egg and the blue pheasant's egg are quite different.
But for some reason, this blue pheasant egg looks exactly like a little lark egg.
In addition, the energy fluctuations, which are also of the wind attribute, led to it being mistaken for a lark egg.
The two pets are a whole major rank apart in terms of their racial level, which means their values differ proportionally.
Let's put it this way: an egg with the potential to be a Overlord-level race will never cost less than 100,000.
Not to mention its excellent qualifications.
Xia Yu had previously browsed both the regular and premium sections of the trading market, and the drop rate of one "good quality" pet egg out of ten was considered astonishing.
In short, if we succeed, this will be another investment with a return of over 1000%.
Xia Yu didn't have to say much this time.
The stall owner was a young man who was engrossed in playing a game. When he heard that someone wanted to buy the little lark egg, he was so happy that he immediately gave it a 10% discount.
It was eventually sold for less than 12,000.
Xia Yu then browsed the special offer section for a while and found another pet egg with good potential.
After a morning of browsing, Xia Yu finally spent less than 100,000 yuan to find three misvalued pet eggs, completing his million-yuan evacuation.
When they returned to Miaomiao's Pet House, Madam Xueling was wiping glassware behind the counter.
Hearing the door open, she looked up and her gaze fell on what Xia Yu was holding in his arms.
"Eek?"
"The goods have arrived."
Xia Yu placed the box containing three pet eggs on the counter and carefully opened it.
He first took out the grayish-brown egg.
Lady Xueling leaned closer to take a look, her brows furrowing slightly.
With her perception, she could naturally sense the dark energy swirling around the surface of the egg.
The energy was cold and restrained, completely different from the warm fluctuations emitted by normal pet eggs.
"Eek..."
Xia Yu smiled and said, "Don't let its ugly appearance fool you, it will definitely give us a surprise when it hatches."
Lady Xue Ling nodded with some skepticism.
"Hey~"
"You watch the shop for a bit longer, I'm going to incubate the eggs."
After saying that, Xia Yu picked up the three boxes again and walked up to the second floor where the incubation room was located.
The incubator was empty at this moment.
However, Madam Xueling had cleaned it, so Xia Yu could use it directly.
After placing the three boxes, Xia Yu took out the Elf Egg Incubator from the system space.
With a slight thought, a silver-white oval device appeared on the ground.
Compared to mainstream pet egg incubators on the market, it is not large, but it looks very high-tech.
The surface has fine energy patterns, and the base is connected to an energy core that emits a faint glow.
Xia Yu gently placed the grayish-brown egg into the incubator.
