Ye Jiu certainly didn’t think the world was filled with good people, which was why she deliberately disguised herself as a boy to sell things.

Of course, besides intentionally disguising herself, another reason was that many people generally looked down on women, let alone a girl child, so it was really inconvenient to do business while dressed as a woman.

“Shopkeeper Lin, my family is really in urgent need of money, so I can’t afford to delay. I hope Shopkeeper Lin can offer a bit more. Then I can decide to sell the item,” Ye Jiu bowed.

After all, there’s no fixed price in trading. Although two thousand taels of silver was already quite a lot, no one ever thinks they have too much silver. It’s always better to sell for more if possible.

Moreover, Ye Jiu sensed from Shopkeeper Lin’s tone that there was still hope for the price to go higher.

Shopkeeper Lin’s face showed some difficulty. “May I ask what price you have in mind, young master?”

He was only a shopkeeper, with limited authority over the amount of silver coin he could spend. Even if it was a guaranteed profitable deal, if it exceeded his financial authority, he could only reluctantly let it go.

Seeing the difficulty on Shopkeeper Lin’s face, Ye Jiu didn’t dare to raise the price too much. With a pained expression, she said, “Two thousand two hundred taels of silver. If Shopkeeper Lin can make the decision, I will leave the item here.”

“Well… okay,” the hesitation on Shopkeeper Lin’s face was fleeting.

An increase of two hundred taels of silver wasn’t too significant.

Besides, Shopkeeper Lin was confident that with the acquisition of the pearl the size of a pigeon’s egg, he might very soon expand beyond this small town.

“I would also trouble the shopkeeper to prepare two hundred taels in cash for expenses,” Ye Jiu added, with a shy smile.

Shopkeeper Lin carefully placed the pearl into a box, smiling with complete satisfaction.

Stepping out of the jewelry shop, Ye Jiu had already put the silver note and the silver coin into her Plane Space, and she walked some distance away to wait for Ye Gaosheng to come back.

Otherwise, having just left the jewelry shop and still standing at the door with such a large amount of silver, she would have puzzled Shopkeeper Lin.

Perhaps because Ye Jiu had asked for too many things, Ye Gaosheng took a while longer to finally return.

From a distance, Ye Jiu greeted him, “Fourth brother, I’m here.”

Carrying a fully packed basket, Ye Gaosheng walked over, “Little sister, I’ve bought everything. Shall we go back now?”

Ye Gaosheng felt somewhat troubled in his heart.

His little sister was clever and intelligent, but her physical strength was not up to par.

The journey here was fine since she had some energy left, but after spending most of the day, he wasn’t sure she would have the stamina to make it home.

Furthermore, with his basket already loaded, it would be difficult to carry her even for a short distance later on.

He also didn’t know whether the ox cart outside the town had left or not. If they missed the ox cart, by the time they walked back home, his little sister’s feet might be blistered.

“Fourth brother, do you need anything else?” Ye Jiu didn’t need anything herself, but considering that Ye Gaosheng was soon to be betrothed, he might want to purchase some more items, which is why she asked.

“No… no…” Ye Gaosheng scratched his head, “The basket is already full, and if we buy more, we’ll have nowhere to put it. Moreover, we don’t know if we can catch the ox cart back. I’m okay, but I’m worried about tiring out your little legs on the way back. So, we better hurry, maybe the cart hasn’t left yet.”
