Chapter 63: Being Robbed

It was unknown whether he was convinced by Lin Yuelan’s sharp tongue or frightened by the child’s violence, but in the end, the shopkeeper really bought the big tiger for 380 taels of silver. After the tiger skin was shaved off, he returned it to the child.

Lin Yuelan’s tender little face was full of joy. She took the silver taels with a smile and said to the shopkeeper, who had a pained expression on his face, “Shopkeeper, don’t worry. In the future, if I take down another tiger or big wolf, I’ll come back. I’ll not make you suffer any loss!”

When the shopkeeper heard this, his pained expression immediately turned into a grin. He immediately put the silver in Lin Yuelan’s hand and said, “Child, you must keep your word. In the future, no matter if there is a tiger, wolf, or deer, you have to come to my place to sell them first, okay?”

Although he had bought the big tiger at a high price, he would still earn some profit. It was just less than what he had wished. Based on what the girl said, she dealt with the tiger with one punch. Since the girl could take down the first tiger, there’d be the second and third tiger. If she became a supplier for the shop, then the shopkeeper would have a bigger profit in the long run. Therefore, the shopkeeper naturally had to keep Lin Yuelan happy.

Lin Yuelan took the money bag and opened it. Looking at the silver ingots inside, she took out one and weighed it with her hand. She replied in a crisp voice, “Of course, uncle shopkeeper. But the price…” she deliberately let the sentence hang.

Shopkeeper Lin immediately understood. He quickly nodded and replied, “The price will be absolutely fair!”

Shopkeeper Lin looked at the child, but he felt like he was bargaining with a shrewd old businessman. How could the girl be so smart?

Lin Yuelan knew she had attracted too much attention, but there was nothing she could do. She lived alone. She couldn’t act like a real child with a limited IQ. That would only make people feel that she was very easy to bully.

After all, she had just finished a big transaction. It had already drawn a lot of attention. Some people with evil intentions would target her because she was just a child. They would think that she was easily fooled.

In the future, Lin Yuelan would return to the town to sell or buy things.

Therefore, Lin Yuelan wanted to use her show of divine power and intelligence to tell others that although she was only a child, no one could deceive her.

After taking the silver and bidding farewell to shopkeeper Lin, Lin Yuelan felt exceptionally curious and wanted to explore this ancient town.

The streets were paved with bluestones, and there were many shops and restaurants on both sides.

The streets were bustling with people. There were the shouts of hawkers, the laughter of children, the sounds of customers bargaining, and so on. It was exceptionally lively.

Lin Yuelan squatted down to take a look when she saw someone making Candy Man. The seller made her a Monkey King, Sun Wukong. Then, Lin Yuelan wandered over to a spot where someone was performing acrobatics. She squeezed into the crowd and clapped her hands in approval.

Lin Yuelan had been fighting for years during the apocalypse. At that moment, she felt extremely relaxed and happy. It felt like her inner child was coming alive.
