"You haven't paid yet!"
The vendor's words left Zhang Yuan dumbfounded. "Pay for what?"
The vendor gave a cold chuckle, then lifted a wooden board from the ground. Scrawled across it were the large characters: "Inquire Price Must Buy."
With a proud tone, he said, "Fifty thousand silver, not a coin less!"
Zhang Yuan immediately understood that the vendor must have taken him for an easy target, perhaps because he seemed new, so he intended to extort him with forced buying and selling.
This kind of situation was not uncommon.
What puzzled Zhang Yuan was why, when pretending to be a Tier Four Martial Artist, this vendor, with only a Tier One or Tier Two strength at most, was so bold.
Without getting angry, Zhang Yuan asked, "Inquire Price Must Buy? Since when is that a rule? I've never heard of it."
"Well, you're seeing it today!"
The vendor sneered, "That's the rule at Crescent Oasis. Hurry up and pay!"
Zhang Yuan asked with interest, "What if I don't pay?"
