After the transfer was complete, the agreed-upon ti and location for the delivery was set.
A day later, Lu Heng had practiced his movent technique to (2005/3000), then he left to go to the delivery location, ready to pick up the tal Enhancent Crystal Core.
Since the Crystal Core Dark Network was never a public site, concealing one's identity could avoid a lot of trouble.
So, Lu Heng used an Illusion Pearl to change his appearance and then waited at the delivery spot.
But even when the agreed ti ca, the trader didn't show up.
He found a spot to open his laptop and checked the backend information of the Crystal Core Dark Network.
There was no problem, the agreed ti and location were correct.
So, Lu Heng sent a private ssage to inquire about the situation.
After almost an hour, the other party finally responded with a private ssage, "The transaction is canceled, the money will be refunded the way it ca."
Upon reading this private ssage, Lu Heng got a bit pissed off.
Indeed, it's common to cancel transactions on the Crystal Core Dark Network before the transaction is completed.
After all, it's normal for disagreents to arise during the transaction process, and a negotiation breakdown naturally leads to cancellation.
However, the other party hadn't even negotiated, and moreover, they replied only after Lu Heng sent an inquiry an hour after the agreed ti.
This made things rather irritating.
This tal Enhancent was indeed well-suited for the chanical Tiger, so Lu Heng sent another private ssage asking about the reason, "Why was the transaction canceled?"
"The price is too low."
"But you set the price at 8 million, I didn't even bargain."
"I set it too low, is that not okay?"
"Fine, then set a new price."
"It looks like you know how precious my Crystal Core is, why didn't you say anything at the start?"
Looking at this private ssage, Lu Heng really wanted to strangle this nutcase.
Indeed, a Level C Skill Crystal Core is precious, but the market value is usually around 5 million.
tal Enhancent is a rather practical skill, so a slight increase to 6 million is also normal.
However, this skill does not have any Attack Power and isn't the type that Superpower Users would scramble for.
Moreover, this skill is only suitable for Superpower Users with a tal Elent enhancent direction, so the demand isn't that large.
Therefore, a normal transaction price of 6 million is reasonable.
Of course, money can't buy what the heart desires.
If soone who likes this skill cos across it, paying a premium is also normal.
Lu Heng did think this skill was suitable for the chanical Tiger, so when he first saw the price at 8 million, he didn't haggle and just went for it.
The seller, however, pulled this stunt.
In fact, if the other party had canceled the transaction before the agreed trade ti, Lu Heng would have felt it was reasonable.
But to have no communication past the trade ti, to respond only after an hour to an inquiry...
This attitude really pissed him off.
Lu Heng sent another private ssage, "How much do you want? Na your price!"
The reply ca, "You couldn't afford it even if I nad a price, I've already sold it to soone else for triple the cost, almost got fooled by you."
Lu Heng was so annoyed he almost laughed, and he really wanted to know who would buy that Crystal Core.
Moreover, the other party ntioned a refund but has yet to actually send the money back.
Lu Heng sent another ssage asking, "When will the money be returned?"
After a long while, the reply ca, "Just wait. Are you missing those few million that much?"
The more Lu Heng stepped back and thought about it, the angrier he felt, and suddenly a wicked idea popped into his head.
He took out his phone and called Lin Zeyu, "Hey, do you rember that Skill Crystal Core you told about the day before yesterday?"
"I rember, didn't you buy it? What's up?" Lin Zeyu asked, puzzled.
"The seller is ssing with . I went to the trade spot and waited for over an hour, then he says it's been sold to soone else for triple the price. I reckon he hasn't delivered yet, ssage him and drive the price up," Lu Heng spoke with evident frustration.
"This guy is so arrogant, watch how I deal with him!" Lin Zeyu said and hung up the phone, ready to cause trouble.
He sent a private ssage asking about the price, and after a while, he added, "Would you sell for 30 million? If that's not enough, I'll add more."
You could tell this was a sucker.
Sure enough, the seller took the bait, and the price soared all the way to 50 million.
Lin Zeyu made the offers without hesitation, just to ss with the seller.
After agreeing to a deal at 50 million, they set the ti and place for the transaction.
And the next day.
Lin Zeyu went to the trade location with his people and pinned the trader down.
Once they had them restrained, they found it was a fashionably dressed woman in her late twenties, heavily made up.
After the woman was restrained, she began to shout, "What are you doing? Don't touch , if you touch once, I'll have my husband kill you all!"
Lin Zeyu hadn't expected this kind of situation, but he didn't bother with small talk and directly told her to call her man over for a talk.
The woman kept yelling, "Do you know who my husband is? Once he gets here, you'll all regret it, I'm telling you, my husband is a Superpower User, he could poke you to death with one finger."
They waited for about half an hour.
A Superpower User, about thirty years old with a wolf head tattoo on the right side of his neck, arrived, glaring angrily at Lin Zeyu and the others.
As soon as the wolf-headed man arrived, the woman imdiately jumped up, pointed at Lin Zeyu, and began to complain, "Husband, you teach them a lesson, they hurt just now."
Lin Zeyu glanced at the man with the wolf tattoo, seeing nothing special, and asked, "Are we going to fight?"
The wolf-headed man wasn't as loud as the woman, but still said arrogantly, "Apologize to my woman and we can forget this ever happened."
Hearing this, the woman was displeased, "Just apologize and you think it's over? You must avenge today, punish them, or this isn't finished!"
Lin Zeyu looked at his underlings and asked, "Does anyone know this guy? Which gang is he from?"
His underlings all shook their heads, none recognizing him.
The wolf-headed man imdiately brought up his backing, saying, "My boss is Chuanshan Piao Ye, you'd better know your place. You still have ti to apologize."
"Who is Chuanshan Piao Ye?" Lin Zeyu had never heard of this person and turned to look at his underlings.
An underling bent over and whispered in Lin Zeyu's ear, "He's a local gangster in Chuanshan District."
At that mont, Li Dayong stepped forward and said, "Boss, that Piao Ye is just a small fry, let fetch him over."
"Sure, go bring that son of a bitch here, I want to see which deity he is." Lin Zeyu, after hearing his underling's words, had a rough idea of the opponent's background.
Now he could show off.
So, he took out his phone and called Lu Heng, saying, "Hehe, the job is done, are you coming to get your Crystal Core?"
Half an hour passed.
When Lu Heng arrived, he saw Lin Zeyu restraining two people, a man and a woman, neither looking particularly powerful.
Then, an MPV drove up, and Li Dayong, dragging a man by his clothes out of the car, said, "This one, claims to be your lackey. Co on, identify yourself."
Chuanshan Piao Ye, a fifty-year-old man with a circle of beard and a scar on his face, looked quite imposing.
Piao Ye was dragged out of the car and then saw his underling, fist raised, standing off against soone.
He strode forward, kicked the wolf-headed man, and scolded, "When did I ever ask you to make a fool of yourself like this? Apologize to Young Master Lin now, and in the future, don't use my na to cause trouble outside."
The wolf-headed man, obviously seasoned in the underworld, knew imdiately that he had ssed with soone he shouldn't have. When kicked down, he didn't dare to stand up but instead crawled over to Lin Zeyu on his knees to apologize:
"I'm sorry, it's all my fault, I didn't recognize Young Master Lin, all my mistake, I'll slap my own face."
He then raised his hand and started slapping his face with loud smacks, hitting so hard that after just two or three hits, finger marks appeared on his face.
The woman, upon seeing this situation, exclaid angrily, "Are you a piece of trash? I asked you to co help take revenge, and you get up!"
While cursing, she kept kicking the wolf-headed man.
The wolf-headed man's expression grew fierce, as he turned back and slapped the woman to the ground, cursing, "If it weren't for you, you damn bitch causing trouble, how would I end up in such bad luck!"
"You dare hit !" the woman yelled as she lay on the ground, pointing her finger and howling at the wolf-headed man.
Lin Zeyu clapped his hand on the stone table and said, "Stop, stop, stop, take your fight back ho. I have a question, who sold the [tal Enhancent]?"
"I... I sold it." The wolf-headed man raised his hand and then quickly explained: "I've been busy these past two days, so I let this woman handle it for ."
"A C-level Crystal Core for 50 million, you really dare to ask for that much; but truth is, I can afford it. Co on, hand over the Crystal Core, let see it." Lin Zeyu stretched out his hand to demand the Crystal Core.
"50 million?"
The wolf-headed man was visibly surprised and gasped, "Was it not 5 million?"
Lin Zeyu took out his phone and showed the bargaining records, "Look carefully, it went up from 8 million to 50 million. And about the 8 million you said you'd refund, it's been days and still no money returned. The money was paid, but the goods not delivered. You playing ?"
The wolf-headed man was initially perplexed but quickly figured out what had happened and slapped the woman across the face and hastily explained:
"Young Master Lin, it's not like that. It's all this woman causing trouble, she told just yesterday she sold it for 5 million, that we'd get the money in a couple of days.
"She also said she was handling the delivery for . I've been busy, so I listened to her.
"I swear, she told it was 5 million; I absolutely had no intention of scamming you."
The wolf-headed man pleaded pitifully, then distanced himself from the woman.
Though the woman called him husband, they had no marital relationship, rely a man-woman relationship.
The wolf-headed man didn't expect to be scamd and the more he thought about it, the angrier he got, slapping the woman again and scolding, "So you thought you'd take the 50 million and run away? You think it's fun to play ?"
"I didn't, I definitely would have given you all the money from the Crystal Core sale," the woman started begging for rcy as she realized things were unraveling.
"I still don't know what you are? You told last night it was 5 million. Even when it was initially sold for 8 million, you were thinking of pocketing 3 million. Encountering such a thing as you, I've really seen all there is!"
The wolf-headed man quickly took out the Crystal Core and handed it over to Lin Zeyu with both hands.
Lin Zeyu took a look at the information of the Crystal Core and asked, "How much was this thing again?"
"Eight hundred, no no no, five hundred, just five hundred," the wolf-headed man quickly corrected, just wanting to smooth things over.
"Do you want it?" Lin Zeyu turned and handed the Crystal Core to Lu Heng.
Lu Heng took a look, saw that there were no issues with the Crystal Core, then turned and walked away, leaving behind the words, "Trade at market price."
"Understood." Lin Zeyu drew two fingers across his temple.
Watching Lu Heng leave, Lin Zeyu turned back around, his expression turning cold as he cursed, "Do you know who my boss is? To think that there are still people in this world daring enough to play him, you have the gall and yet you still demand money."
