Chapter 19: Then Sell
After selecting the items, Xia Li was paying at the cashier while Lucia stood quietly behind him.
As the cashier was counting the items, Xia Li tried his best not to look up at the panties and bras Lucia had chosen.
It wasn’t that he wanted to keep a sense of mystery—
After all, they were living together, and when they changed clothes, they would definitely hang them on the balcony, exposed to each other.
Xia Li was mainly… a little embarrassed.
After all, it was sothing he had never experienced before.
During his university days, Xia Li was either studying or playing gas. The person who appeared most often around him was his good brother, who had played with him for four years.
With such a life, let alone radiating youthful energy and having a couple of passionate love affairs, Xia Li didn’t even recognize all the female classmates in his class.
“Will you be paying with Alipay or WeChat?”
Packing all the items into a bag in front of Xia Li, the cashier held a scanning gun and “biu”-ed it at Xia Li’s paynt code.
The price was quite expensive; all these things added up to nearly three hundred yuan.
Reaching out to take the paper bag, instinctively, Xia Li’s eyes glanced inside.
It was strange how the more one tried to avoid sothing, the more one would subconsciously do it, just like recalling sothing; the more one didn’t want to think about it, the more vivid the mory beca.
Xia Li’s eyes froze when he saw the letters on the tag, and his hanging heart finally sank.
75A
He had said this morning that there was a curve…
So, this curve wasn’t even enough to enhance Lucia from A-cup to B-cup?
“Xia Li, do you still have money?”
Walking out of the mall, Lucia always had a worried look on her face.
She had learned from Xia Li that human transactions were not only done by paying cash, but there was also a way to scan a paynt code in a small box, and the amount would be deducted from the small box.
Although the latter was virtual, non-existent money, it could be exchanged for real money one-to-one.
Lucia was worried that Xia Li would spend all those numbers, in which case they would likely go hungry.
“There’s still over three thousand left.”
“Over three thousand… Then there’s still a lot!”
Xia Li’s answer made Lucia’s eyes twinkle.
For this evil dragon who had no concept of money, over three thousand yuan was indeed a considerable sum.
But, three thousand yuan… If Xia Li lived alone, it could last him two months.
Now, including Lucia, it was probably not even enough for a month.
He had to find a way to earn so gold coins during this ti.
Speaking of gold coins…
“Right,”
Xia Li suddenly stopped, rembering sothing important.
“Let’s go to a gold shop first.”
◈◈◈
“Brother, this is not pure gold, it’s an alloy.”
“Here, this type of gold is called AU900. Both the selling and buying prices are lower than ordinary gold.”
Inside a gold shop on Chunbei Road.
The male clerk in charge of receiving Xia Li and Lucia took professional instrunts and briefly appraised the gold coin Xia Li took out.
Although it was a bit worn out and the patterns on the surface of the gold coin were blurred, gold was, after all, a tal that could withstand the erosion of ti. This gold coin, weighing 32 grams, was real gold.
As Xia Li had guessed, the gold content was not high.
But 90% gold content was still a terrifying number.
While waiting for the clerk to carefully appraise it, Xia Li took out his phone and secretly searched for the price of this AU900 gold.
The string of numbers that ca up made Xia Li very satisfied.
“Based on today’s gold price, the buyback price of AU900 is 437 yuan per gram, but since you don’t have an invoice or brand information for the gold, we need to apply a 10% discount for buyback, which is 393 yuan per gram.”
The clerk, dressed in a suit, showed Xia Li today’s gold price and casually slashed the price.
If it was a large quantity, this kind of gold shop wouldn’t dare to casually buy back gold without an invoice.
But after all, the gold coin in Xia Li’s hand was only 30 grams, and this purity… It was obviously old.
Xia Li, of course, knew the advantage of the gold coin in his hand.
“You can’t say that,”
◈◈◈
Xia Li took the gold coin and placed it on the transparent table.
“You’ve tested the gold content, and I have no objection to its purity. However… The appearance of this gold coin is as old as it can be, full of traces of ti.
Although the inscription is blurred, and the surface has dirt and impurities, it also represents its age.
Maybe this thing can even be traced back to ancient Western history.”
Xia Li finished speaking with a sparkle in his eyes, and the clerk remained silent.
What the other party said was not unreasonable. This gold coin was obviously very old, and it was not an exaggeration to call it an antique.
“May I ask, where did you get this?”
“It was passed down from my ancestors.”
Xia Li’s answer was particularly firm, as if he had already prepared this excuse in his mind.
The clerk in front of him struggled for a bit and then went to the back room to consult his boss.
“I’m an ancestor?”
Seeing the human man leave, Lucia beside Xia Li tilted her head and pointed at herself.
“Shh.” Xia Li motioned for her to be quiet.
After about ten minutes, the clerk ca out, this ti with the owner of the gold shop.
After so haggling, the gold coin was finally bought back at a high price of 450 yuan per gram.
Although the buyback price far exceeded the current gold price, this thing was valuable because it was rare. The worn-out pattern on it aroused the boss’s interest, and he directly bought it back according to the budget for collectibles.
Even Xia Li himself did not expect that just one gold coin from the Azure Continent would be so valuable.
Looking at the 14,400 yuan credited to his WeChat account, Xia Li felt a little dazed.
If he had known he would travel back, he should have brought a bag of gold coins back to be a little rich guy.
However, this was just wishful thinking.
Suddenly having so much gold on him would definitely be questioned by the police.
After receiving the money, Xia Li was ready to leave.
Turning around, he saw the silly dragon still standing at the door.
Lucia didn’t know when she had co to the counter of the gold shop, her hands behind her back, staring at the glittering gold in the glass cabinet, unable to take her eyes away.
He almost forgot…
Dragonkind loved shiny things, especially gold.
“Let’s go.” Xia Li went up and urged her.
Lucia then closed her mouth, which had been slightly open in shock.
When she was an evil dragon in the Azure Continent, it wasn’t that she had never seen so much gold. Lucia had even lived in a cave full of gold for a long ti.
However, this was the first ti Lucia had seen such finely crafted gold artifacts.
A beautiful headdress that looked like a crown, a flower pendant worn around the neck, and bracelets shaped like various small animals…
Lucia’s amber eyes reflected the color of gold, making her already clear eyes even more dazzling.
“So beautiful, Xia Li.
I want that one over there.”
While Xia Li and the boss were haggling over the price, Lucia had already chosen her favorite gold item.
Xia Li’s hair stood on end when he glanced at the price.
This guy chose a phoenix crown.
Worth over seven hundred thousand yuan.
To be fair, dragonkind always had high standards.
“Sell and see if you can afford it.” Xia Li felt both angry and amused.
Lucia actually thought about it seriously.
Then, she felt that this thing was not as important as Xia Li.
“Forget it,” Lucia shook her head, “It’s not worth it.”
