After thinking for a moment about his excellent plan, Zheng-Fu spoke up with a smile, "How much are all these items, sir, Grandpa?"

Huh...?

The elderly man's face immediately became dazed when he heard Zheng-Fu's question. He did not think that someone would ask the price of the items in a situation like this. As for Zheng-Fu, seeing the old man acting dazed, he asked again, "How much are all these items, sir, Grandpa?"

Ah!!!

"I sell each item for only a hundred monster crystal coins. Except for that old book that I... se... sell... one... one thousand monster crystal coins, sir," the old man told the price of his items immediately, except for one old book placed in a separate place, where the elderly man said in a stuttering voice.

"Then I want to buy all of that. Could you sum up the price?" Zheng-Fu said with a smile, not caring what anyone else thought.

Huh...?

"Young Master, do you really mean that, sir?" The old man stood still in shock before asking again, just to be sure.

"Did you see me joking? Let's have it this way, for all these, I'll give you one hundred thousand monster crystal coins. What is your opinion?"

One... one hun... one hundred thousand monster crystal coins!!!

"Is that kid insane to buy such trash for a hundred thousand monster crystal coins!?"

"That's right, I guess he'd like to joke."

Zheng-Fu was too lazy to wait for his answer, so he immediately offered the price. However, the price he said made the surrounding people's eyes grow so big that they almost jumped out of their sockets. Not only that, but everyone also thought he was just joking.

"Young Master, even though I'm a very poor man, you shouldn't be joking…"

Flap!!!

"There's a total of one hundred thousand monster crystal coins on this card. You can count them," Zheng-Fu immediately took out his cash card from the dimensional ring, handed it over to the old man, and told him to count the money.

Ah!!

After the old man received the card from Zheng-Fu, he immediately checked it. Then a large amount of sweat flew out on his entire face in shock, and he said, "Real... real... really… one… one hundred thousand monster crystal coins!!!" Then a smile appeared on his face as he jumped back and forth, forgetting about his age.

"Hey!!! What are you guys playing? What kind of drama are you going to show here? If there is real money, then pay it; otherwise, just go away!!!" The man who had been watching for a long time could not help speaking angrily as he had already been forgotten.

Flap!!!

"This is five thousand monster crystal coins for your rent. From now on, I won't be selling on your brutal marketplace anymore. And I believe your market will soon go bankrupt!!!" The old man indifferently threw five thousand monster crystal coins at the man, along with cursing him back with a long-standing bitterness that he had to endure selling things here.

"Fatuous!!! Old man, do you think this money will be enough for what you did to me? Pay me right now a hundred thousand monster crystal coins; otherwise, I'll break your arms and legs. You, too, kid, pay me one million coins in compensation. Otherwise, you will also have a fate no different from this old bastard!"

As the man saw that the money that the old man had received was actually the amount Zheng-Fu had told him, an evil smile suddenly appeared. He was threatening the old man and Zheng-Fu to hand over the money to him with the blame of making him lose face and being insulted this time.

"You'll have me pay for your compensation?" Zheng-Fu asked with a puzzled look on his face, in the style of the hero of this fiction.

"Right! Or do you need my men to remind you, huh!?" the man said, leaning his face forward slightly, like a typical villain that was commonly seen.

"It's alright if you want my money, but…"

"But what!?"

"But I'm not sure if the Third Prince would let that happen!?" Zheng-Fu replied with a heavy shake of his head and made a sad face, but beneath his sad face was a wide grin.

The Third Prince!?

One word made everyone's faces stunned. This word or this name was well known to everyone. Those in the outer zone did not even have the right to speak, but this boy spoke in a very casual and simple manner as if he knew the owner of the name very well.

"Young Master, what do you mean by that? If the people of the palace hear it, you'll be punished," the old man immediately warned Zheng-Fu with concern, hearing Zheng-Fu say the word 'the Third Prince.'

"Ha ha ha, kid, today you're out of luck for daring to say that name… Don't you know who that person is? The outer zone people know this well. Even those in the central zone wouldn't dare, but you said it without any fear. Anyway, there's no officer in this area. If you're willing to pay ten million monster crystal coins, this father of yours might not take the matter to the authorities."

The man spoke with satisfaction. He was very happy to see Zheng-Fu say that because it gave him a chance to threaten to take more money from Zheng-Fu. He did not know at all that the person Zheng-Fu was talking about was not far from here now and also watching this situation.

Ten million!!!

"That kid is really unlucky. Sigh… Such a pity!"

"He shouldn't have said that name at all. Such insolent!!!"

"Or if that kid is really familiar with… that person?"

"Are you crazy? What part of your brain do you use for thinking? How could a kid like that get to know that person? Will he even know the central zone generals!?"

"It's true, I shouldn't be that stupid at all!"

"What's up, kid? If you still don't want to die, hurry to hand me the money. Otherwise..."

"Otherwise, what are you going to do to my friend?"

Huh...?

"I'll bring what he said about that person to... to... the Third Prince!!!"

Suddenly, a mysterious and respectable voice sounded, causing people to turn around with suspicion. But as soon as their eyes met the owner of the voice, their faces could not help but turn pale, except for the man who stood back. He replied and turned to look whose voice it was before his tone slowly faded, and he shouted out the name of the owner of the voice.

Thump!!!

"Respect, Third Prince!"

The man immediately knelt and gave a humble greeting. The surrounding people, including the old man, followed the man. But only one person was standing in place. And that person was Zheng-Fu.

"Respect, Third Prince." Zheng-Fu did not kneel like the others, he only bowed and said respectfully.

Huh...?

Zheng-Fu's actions caused everyone to be shocked, with disbelief appearing in their eyes. Two reasons could be explained to them right now. The first was that this kid had gone mad. The second was that what he had said and done earlier, that he seemed to know the Third Prince, was true.

"Ha ha ha! I didn't expect to meet Young Master here. You're usually only seen in the office and have no free time. But why did Young Master come to the capital today?" The Third Prince approached Zheng-Fu and stopped before asking him politely.

Ah!!!

This conversation immediately made the face of this most honest working man heat up before turning pale, along with a lot of sweat beads that flowed out because these things had already shown what the truth was.

The answer was that this little young man really knew the Third Prince. In addition, the Third Prince spoke to the young man politely as well. This further reinforced what his own destiny would be. And even if this time his father came out to be responsible himself, his family would be charged as well. Like this, who would be able to help him?

"I came to the capital today because I had a few things to do at the Purple Dragon Auction House. Before I got there, I happened to pass by this market and thought of stopping by. But I came across an incident where someone took advantage of... uh... was not taking good care of the merchant as he should. So I thought I'd go in and help.

But then I was intimidated," Zheng-Fu explained with a sad face, slowly telling the truth about what happened to the Third Prince.

The story was all true; it was just that his demeanour was a bit too much. And the Third Prince had seen all the events that had happened. He could not help but laugh at Zheng-Fu's performance like this.

"Hmm... I don't even know how this happened. But if you have anything for me to help with, just let me know. I am fully willing to help," the Third Prince was not inferior to Zheng-Fu either. When Zheng-Fu finished acting, he immediately continued his role. The Third Prince's actions caused his followers to be completely stunned, frozen in a daze.

"I'd like to thank the Third Prince for being kind enough to help me with such a trivial matter. But no matter how much I want to deny it, I can't do so because I feel very sorry for the merchants here who have to deal with such cruel rents. Sob! Sob!"

"So I'd like to beg the Third Prince to ask that man to sell this market to you so that your merciful highness will be able to ensure the merchants' well-being. And no one will dare to harass them again. Sob! Sob!!"

Zheng-Fu said that with a sad expression all the time. His every word was like a scammer, but it made the villagers and merchants feel a lot of sympathy and approval for him. More importantly, he also gave credit to the Third Prince. This was called benefiting all parties, except for the man whose face was completely dark.

"I don't know if I can do that. I have to ask him first," the Third Prince continued to play his role. He turned around to ask the man if he was willing or not. But before the Third Prince could ask anything, the man immediately interjected.

"Your Highness, I'm just a descendant of the family sent to oversee this market. I can't decide on this matter. Then I will inform Father first. I don't know..."

"Well, I've sent someone to tell your father. He'll have an answer soon," Before he could finish, the Third Prince interjected that he had already sent someone out to deal with this matter. By using a sound wave, he had ordered his followers to go out to do it.

Ah!!!

"On tha... that... that matter…!!!"

The man was speechless when he heard the Third Prince's words just a moment ago about sending people to talk about buying land in this market already. He could only stand with his mouth open before his body collapsed to the ground in despair.
