Chapter 9: Well, Do We Know Each Other?

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The black market was set up behind a large building in the center of the city. It covered a large area and was bustling with people.

Ye Haoran had never been here before. He had always thought that underground trading places like the black market were in the remote suburbs.

Looking at how crowded the place was, he would not believe that the people from the Spirit Bureau did not have a share in managing this place.

“It’s a good low-level medicinal herb! Buy one get one free, buy two get three free!”

“All kinds of powerful spiritual attribute potions. If they’re fake, I’ll pay you ten in return!”

“The Heaven Ascension pill. A contract spirit will be upgraded by 100 levels after eating it!”

The corner of Ye Haoran’s mouth twitched. Why was there a shop selling Heaven Ascension pills? It was too fake!

Su Chen saw Ye Haoran’s confusion and explained with a smile, “There is no one to check and manage the stalls in the black market. The authenticity is not certain, but the people in the black market are not fools. They will not believe this.”

As he spoke, Su Chen walked to the Heaven Ascension pill stall and bought a pack for ten yuan. As he walked, he fed it to his flying bird contract spirit and said, “They sell things like jelly beans. They can be used as snacks for the contract spirit.”

There were also some shops on both sides of the black market, and these shops belonged to those who were financially able.

Ye Haoran and Su Chen randomly chose a shop. After entering, they said to the attendant, “Low-level vicious beast inner core.”

The attendant was all smiles as he pointed at the low-level vicious beast inner cores on the shelf and said, “We have an event today, it’s such a coincidence that you’re here. It’s only 3,500 yuan for one!”

“3,500 yuan?”

Ye Haoran was stunned. He had thought that the black market would sell it at a lower price than the market price.

Su Chen explained, “If you buy it through formal channels, there’s a limited amount. The waiting time is also longer.”

Ye Haoran nodded to show that he understood. He took out five low-level vicious beast inner cores, indicating that he wanted to sell them.

“2,500 yuan for one.”

Ye Haoran thought for a while and reluctantly agreed to the price.

After receiving 12,500 yuan, Ye Haoran and Su Chen strolled around the black market.

At this moment, the system’s options appeared:

[Option 1: Go to the third shop on the right and shop normally. Reward: A large amount of spiritual power.]

[Option 2: Continue to wander around. Reward: 10,000 yuan.]

[Option 3: Blow up the third shop on the right. Note: The rocket missile has been automatically stored in the system space. Reward: ‘More and More Punishment’ inscription.]

Looking at the rocket missile stored in the system space, Ye Haoran felt excited. He couldn’t wait to take it out and launch it.

But in the end, reason triumphed over desire. Using a rocket missile here would probably result in a prison sentence of 100 years.

After thinking for a while, Ye Haoran decided to go to that shop to check it out.

Since the system had given him this option, there must be something in that shop.

Ye Haoran walked to the front of the shop. It was called “All You Can Shop” and was divided into two floors.

Ye Haoran strolled around the first floor. He had to admit that there were many types of medicinal herbs.

Then, options suddenly appeared when he looked at a special medicinal herb.

[Option 1: Buy the Dragon Spirit grass. Note: Dragon Spirit grass can speed up the evolution of goldfish. Reward: Activate the evolution system.]

[Option 2: Give up on the purchase and come back to steal at night. Reward: Earn the title “The Lonely Grand Thief”. When equipped, there is a chance of getting the death sentence.]

[Option 3: Find other alternatives. Reward: High-level vicious beast inner core +1.]

Ye Haoran looked at the options carefully. The first and third options were undoubtedly the best.

The second option was just to make people take a shortcut in life, it was a sh*tty option.

Although he really needed the high-level vicious beast inner core from Option 3, the evolution system reward from Option 1 seemed to be more precious.

After making up his mind, Ye Haoran picked up the Dragon Spirit grass in front of him and asked the attendant next to him, “How much is this?”

“30,000 yuan each, no bargaining.”

Ye Haoran frowned slightly. So expensive?

He only had nearly 20,000 yuan on him right now, and he couldn’t buy even one.

Seeing Ye Haoran’s hesitation, the attendant beside him introduced the herb enthusiastically, “Dragon Spirit grass can be used to make fire attribute potions for great spiritualists. It’s a very rare item. If you buy it and give it to your elders, it’ll give you a lot of face.”

Just as Ye Haoran was in a dilemma, his eyes seemed to have seen something, and his eyes lit up.

Jiang Congnan was full of anger today. First, the sacrificial ceremony he was in charge of was ruined by the spirit guard. Then, he was played by a Level 2 spiritualist and his Blackbird was going crazy.

Not only did he suffer a scolding from the head of the organization, but he had to bring Blackbird to the black market for treatment because of its mental problems.

After Jiang Congnan endured the pain of paying such a high price for the treatment, Blackbird finally stopped its crazy antics. Jiang Congnan carried Blackbird and slowly walked down from the second floor.

Blackbird was looking around and suddenly turned its head and widened its eyes. It straightened its neck and was about to rush forward. Jiang Congnan quickly grabbed its feathers and threw it into the beast taming space, looking in the direction the bird was going.

He wouldn’t be that unlucky, would he? Seeing Blackbird’s reaction, Jiang Congnan already had a rough idea of what was going on.

A bright and cheerful boy in a school uniform appeared directly in front of him. Jiang Congnan quickly put on his hood and a baseball cap to cover his face.

“Can’t see me, can’t see me…” Jiang Congnan mumbled in a low voice as he quickly walked down the stairs from the other side. He had only taken two steps when someone patted him on the shoulder.

“Hi, long time no see!”

A big boy’s face appeared and a hand clasped his shoulder tightly.

Jiang Congnan took out a mask and put it on his face. He turned around and asked innocently, “Yes, do we know each other?”

Ye Haoran grinned and showed Jiang Congnan the phone number of the Spirit Bureau that he was calling.

It was not easy meeting his foe, how could he let him run away like this?

Jiang Congnan was shocked and quickly hung up the phone, his eyes pleading, “Big Brother, you’ve already made my bird go crazy, what else do you want?”

Ye Haoran ignored Jiang Congnan’s plea and said seriously, “I want to buy something now, but I don’t have enough money. Can you pay for me? It’s reasonable, right?”

Reasonable, my a*s!

Jiang Congnan smiled awkwardly and said, “Aiyo, I didn’t recognize you just now. I’m sorry, but since you need help, I’ll definitely help you!”

Ye Haoran pulled Jiang Congnan directly to the shop which sold the Dragon Spirit grass, picked up one stalk, and showed it to him.

Jiang Congnan heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it wasn’t a particularly expensive herb, and he could still pay for it.

He keyed in 30,000 yuan on the machine and was about to pay with his card when Ye Haoran stopped him.

“I’m not talking about this one.”

Ye Haoran pointed to a box of stock on the shelf and said, “I’m talking about this box.”

Jiang Congnan’s eyes widened and he thought, “You’re here to rob me, aren’t you? Even if it’s burglary in broad daylight, you should leave me some money so that I can have some cash! You can’t just kill the sheep, can you?”

However, seeing Ye Haoran click on the phone number of the Spirit Bureau with practiced ease, Jiang Congnan suppressed his heartache and said in a trembling voice, “I… I’ll buy it!”

The black market was right next to the Spirit Bureau, so the spirit guards would not even need a minute to arrive. If he got caught, he would really be in big trouble, and he would have to choose between life and death.

“30,000 yuan has been paid. 30,000 yuan has been paid…..”

The melodious sound of payment sounded until Jiang Congnan’s paid card sent out a reminder that the balance was insufficient. Ye Haoran then reluctantly stopped buying.

In front of him, more than 30 stalks of Dragon Spirit grass had already been piled up into a small mountain, exuding a scorching aura.

Jiang Congnan took back his payment card in anger and left without looking back.

Jiang Congnan really wanted to cry but had no tears as he felt the Blackbird crashing into him in the beast taming space.

What the hell was this? His bird was not cured and he lost so much money!

“F*ck, Ye Haoran, who was that? He was so generous.”

Su Chen helped Ye Haoran put the Dragon Spirit grass into his backpack. He looked at the distant Jiang Congnan with a little curiosity in his eyes.

“Oh, he’s just a silly and rich relative. Don’t mind him,” Ye Haoran said lightly, but he was actually overjoyed.

He didn’t expect Jiang Congnan to be so rich. He helped to pay a million yuan worth of herbs. This was much faster than robbing.

On the other side of the road, a group of people was looking at them.

“Is he Ye Haoran, the one you were talking about?”

An elegant young man nodded with interest. He looked at Ye Haoran’s bag full of Dragon Spirit herbs and said, “He’s quite generous.”

Next to the scholarly young man, Zhao Hui glanced at Ye Haoran with fear, as if he had recalled some bad memories.

“Forget it, Brother Qin. Let’s go. Don’t provoke him. His mind control skill is a little strange.”

Zhao Hui shook his head. He didn’t intend to go over and cause trouble just because he had more people.

The impact of Ye Haoran’s Dragon’s Roar was too great and powerful, and he had not yet recovered from it.

The elegant young man with the surname Qin was not in a hurry to leave. Instead, he walked toward the two people across the road.
