Metropolis: My Little Shop Connects All Worlds

Chapter 47: Blockbuster deal with Whitebeard

Whitebeard opened the box, which contained a dozen Devil Fruits and two katana swords.

It seems that I can make a fortune today, Lu Xiao thought.

At the same time, he took out a product introduction card and handed it to Whitebeard, and said:

"I believe you will be satisfied with this item."

Whitebeard took the card.

After reading the introduction of the card, surprise appeared in his eyes.

"Kula la la la la... I didn't expect you to sell life expectancy here. I remember the last time I didn't seem to have it."

Lu Xiao smiled and said:

"Some new items have been added recently."

The last time Whitebeard checked the products was when he first came, and Whitebeard was Lu Xiao's first customer.

At that time, all the stores in Wanjie were all modern goods except for a copy of [Reiki Breathing Cultivation Method].

Lu Xiao and Whitebeard have a good relationship, because in the previous transactions, Whitebeard took good care of him.

"What about the price?" Whitebeard asked.

Sufficient lifespan can indeed allow him to return to his prime and regain his peak combat power.

But this is life.

Although the things that I brought are precious, when compared to their lifespan... they seem very ordinary.

Lu Xiao raised a finger.

Said: "One Devil Fruit, in exchange for one year of life."

It stands to reason that Whitebeard should be happy to hear the price, because what he brought in exchanged for almost 20 years of life, enough to restore him to the prime of life.

But Whitebeard frowned and said solemnly:

"At this price, you should lose money."

As the king of the sea, he doesn't need alms. If Devil Fruit is not enough, he can go to grab it.

Lu Xiao didn't know how to explain.

You must know that a Devil Fruit, even a normal Zoan with the lowest quality, can be worth 500 trading points, while a year of lifespan of a Tier 1 lifeform is only worth 50 trading points.

It can only be said that Whitebeard is blessed with a low level of cultivation (life level).

If his cultivation was as high as his combat power, the box of things he brought would only be able to exchange for one or two years of life, and it was the kind that Lu Xiao could not earn.

But then again.

If Whitebeard's cultivation was as high as his combat power, he wouldn't have been injured at the age of 72.

"Don't worry, I'm definitely not at a loss." Lu Xiao said.

He couldn't tell Whitebeard directly: I made at least nine times your profit.

Whitebeard looked at Lu Xiao as if he was lying to him.

He nodded and said, "Okay, let's see how many years of life these things can buy."

At the same time, he made a decision in his heart that if Marineford and his party could survive this time, they would collect more Devil Fruit and buy things from Lu Xiao, which would be considered to repay Lu Xiao's kindness.

Because in Whitebeard's view, even if Lu Xiao didn't lose, he definitely didn't make any money.

Well, it can only be said that Whitebeard is still too naive, failing to see the essence of Lu Xiao's profiteer.

In fact, it is inappropriate to say that Lu Xiao is a profiteer.

Just like what Lu Xiao once said to Dumbledore: ... the same glass of water has completely different values ​​for those who live by a well and those who are lost in the desert.

The value of a 'commodity' lies not in the supplier, but in the demander.

What you have abandoned as a shoe may be relished by another person.

Lu Xiao began to check and record what Whitebeard brought.

There are thirteen Devil Fruit, most of which are ordinary Zoan and Paramecia, and the quality is either five or six stars.

But there are two of them.

————

Items: Devil Fruit·Zoan·Eudemons·Yagara Crow Form

Quality: eight stars

Introduction: The legendary messenger who saves the undead is the symbol of the sun. The able person will have the power to control the spirits and flames.

Value: 4700 trading points

————

Item: Devil Fruit Paramecia Impact Fruit

Quality: eight stars

Introduction: Eating this fruit will turn into a shocker, which can release shockwaves from all over the body.

Value: 4300 trading points

————

The quality reaches eight stars, indicating that the fruit's ability has been developed to the ultimate, and it can have the combat power of the eighth order.

How could Whitebeard trade such a precious fruit? If you put it on the black market, any one can easily be exchanged for three or four ordinary Devil Fruits.

Lu Xiao estimates that 80% of the reason is that the Whitebeard Pirates do not have a Devil Fruit picture book, or the Devil Fruit picture book owned by Whitebeard does not have the introduction of these two Devil Fruits.

Pick up the two katana swords in the box.

————

Item: Twelve Workers of the Supreme Sword - Raikiri

Quality: seven stars

Introduction: Three hundred years ago, it was forged by Shimotsuki Inashichiro, a famous craftsman in Wanokuni.

Value: 1400 trading points

————

Item: Twenty-one Works of Big Fast Swords, Tsunade

Quality: six stars

Introduction: It belongs to the demon sword. It has killed 10,000 swordsmen, and those who bear the sword often die.

Value: 800 trading points

————

Collecting everything and converting, Lu Xiao gained 18,700 more trading points.

After thinking about it, Lu Xiao said to Whitebeard: "These things can be exchanged for 20 years of life."

The 20-year lifespan can be realized with only 1000 trading points.

That is to say, Lu Xiao made nearly 18 times the profit.

Whitebeard has always been very kind to himself, is he a little bit of cheating on him? After thinking about it, Lu Xiao said, "Let's make another transaction before that, how about it?"

"What deal?" Whitebeard said.

Whitebeard is already satisfied with the 20-year lifespan of what he brought.

20 years younger, at that time, he was in his prime, and he was 50% sure of saving Ace and Marco.

That's right, 50% sure.

Even in his prime, Whitebeard is only 50% sure.

Three Admiral, Garp, Sengoku...

Which one is a simple person? Especially the old guy Garp.

"Allow me to trade in your world, I will give you a 50% discount for this and future transactions, how about that?" Lu Xiao said.

"I mean, are there more people coming to you from the ocean to buy things?" Whitebeard asked.

Lu Xiao nodded.

"Kola la la la... that's really interesting, no problem, no need for the discount." Whitebeard agreed without thinking much.

Lu Xiao shook his head.

Business is business, and Lu Xiao doesn't want human feelings mixed in.

However, it was absolutely impossible to return the transaction points that had already entered Lu Xiao's pocket.
