As she saw the actions of the white lion, Bai Li Hongzhuang's eyes also lit up. This little fellow understood her thoughts well.
Bai Li Hongzhuang lifted the white lion in her arms, and the white lion, still holding onto the magical crystal, refused to let go.
The stall owner found it amusing when he saw the white lion's behavior. "Miss, your pet is quite interesting."
Bai Li Hongzhuang smiled helplessly. "It just likes pretty things."
The stall owner nodded slightly. In his eyes, the white lion was merely a decorative pet.
This kind of pet was extremely adorable and had a fondness for beautiful things, so it was normal for the white lion to be unwilling to let go of the magical crystal.
"How much does this magical crystal sell for?" Bai Li Hongzhuang asked.
"This is a second-grade magical crystal from the Flame Liger, priced at 100 gold coins," the stall owner replied.
Bai Li Hongzhuang raised an eyebrow. "I remember that the magical crystals from Flame Ligers usually sell for around 90 gold coins. Your price seems a bit high."
Upon hearing this, the stall owner felt somewhat embarrassed. He hadn't expected such a young girl to be so knowledgeable about the market.
"Miss, it's not easy to catch Flame Ligers in our Qingxiao Country. The Beast Mountain Range is far away, and mercenaries also need some compensation for their efforts."
"Let go," Bai Li Hongzhuang said.
She looked at the white lion in her arms, but the white lion firmly held onto the magical crystal, showing no intention of letting go.
The stall owner grew nervous seeing this. It would be a pity if this girl left just like that.
Seeing the situation, Bai Li Hongzhuang felt somewhat helpless. She said, "Shopkeeper, your magical crystal is indeed a bit expensive. How about including some other items as a bonus?"
With her previous life's experience, she knew that if she wanted to find treasures in the trading market, she couldn't directly ask about the price of the things she valued. That would only make the stall owner raise the price or refuse to sell.
After all, it would raise suspicions if someone didn't buy anything and suddenly became interested in an inconspicuous item. It was the most prudent approach to act this way.
"Miss, I'm just running a small business," the stall owner pretended to be helpless but secretly rejoiced. He casually pointed, "I can't include other items, but you can choose two things from these handicrafts."
Bai Li Hongzhuang smiled inwardly. It seemed like her plan had succeeded!
After picking a beautiful dagger, Bai Li Hongzhuang picked up the sheepskin scroll and said, "Just these two then."
"Alright," the stall owner replied with a smile. He made a good profit from this deal, and the two small items he gave away were practically worthless.
He thought that this girl had a childlike nature, and even picking up a couple of random items was good enough for her.
Bai Li Hongzhuang walked out of the trading market and reached out to touch the white lion's head. "You're really clever!"
She had been thinking about buying something else, but the white lion had already understood her thoughts.
In this way, the stall owner would never suspect anything.
Hearing Bai Li Hongzhuang's praise, the white lion also wore a proud expression and excitedly rubbed against her in her arms. "Of course!"
"You vain fellow!" Little Black and Little White chimed in.
The white lion, however, paid no attention to them. These two fellows couldn't taste the grapes, so they said they were sour. After all, it was the pet that its master could bring along.
"It's getting late. It's time to go back," Bai Li Hongzhuang said slowly.
However, in the next moment, her eyes changed slightly.
