The onlookers were not surprised at all when the profiteer gave in.

They rely on the port to make a living. Reputation is very important. If you ruin your reputation, who will come to do business with you in the future?

If there is no one around, then just ignore it. Anyway, there is no evidence and there is nothing you can do against him.

But now that so many people are watching here, we still need to have an attitude.

If this matter spreads wider, other people will say that there are profiteers in Port Olmos in the future. Whether intentionally or unintentionally, those who hear it will already have a label on this place in their hearts.

As soon as those old youtiao merchants saw the scene just now, they quickly anticipated the result, so they responded to Fu Chu's words and came out to force the emperor to show off to the surrounding tourists.

Seeing that the matter had come to an end, Fu Chu said to Laiila: "You asked about the price yesterday. If you come here today, you should have prepared enough molas. Go ahead."

"Okay, okay, thank you." Leila thanked Fu Chu first, and then placed the newly collected molas on the stall in front of her, "This is two hundred thousand molas, please order a little. "

Hearing this, the profiteer was stunned. Just now Fu Chu said that she only offered 100,000 molas, how could it become 200,000?

Not only was he a profiteer, Fu Chu also slapped his forehead. This is a street stall, not a shopping mall. You can negotiate the price.

And from his perspective, the value of that astrolabe was 90,000 molas. He had cut it down to 100,000 molas for Laila. How could this kid still be so honest?

But there is no way, she has already handed it over, and the profiteers will not take it back.

"Miss, this is your thing, please keep it." The profiteer immediately swept away his previous depression, smiled and stuffed the brocade box containing the astrolabe into Laila's arms.

At this point, the farce came to an end, and the surrounding crowd gradually dispersed.

Later, Laila invited Fu Chu to come to a cafe near the port on the pretext of repaying Fu Chu for his help, and the two of them sat down in the cafe's open-air booth.

While waiting for the waiter to serve the drinks, Laila said carefully to Fu Chu: "Um...I'm sorry, you helped me lower the price just now, but in the end I paid the boss 200,000 molas."

In fact, Fu Chu didn't care about this. What to do was Laila's choice. He always respected everyone's choice.

Facing Leila who bowed her head to apologize, Fu Chu thought for a while and said, "According to what I just said, you should have made an agreement with the boss for two hundred thousand molas yesterday."

"Well, I saw that astrolabe yesterday when I was relaxing near the dock. The boss's price tag was 200,000 molas, but I didn't have that many molas on me at the time, so..."

"So you brought two hundred thousand molas here today, only to find that the profiteer didn't take you seriously at all. After discovering that the price of the astrolabe might be at the bottom, he immediately raised the price."

"That's it. But apart from the agreed price of 200,000 molas, the boss actually did not mark the wrong price. From my point of view, the value of this astrolabe is indeed around 200,000 molas."

"Well... the same thing has different values ​​in the eyes of different people. It seems that today's result is pretty good, no one suffered a loss."

Regarding Fu Chu's words, Laila was a little confused, "But you didn't buy what you wanted. Doesn't this count as a loss?"

"Haha, it's not easy to define whether you have suffered a loss or not. To me, that astrolabe is just a beautiful decoration. I can buy a bunch of better ones later. But what I just experienced is Unique and worth remembering.”

"do not understand..."

"Normally, everyone has different values ​​and sees things at different levels. Some people only care about the little things during the journey, while some people only care about getting to the end..."

"Then... do you care about the process or the results?"

"If it's me, I want it all. Whether it's the process or the destination, these are an indispensable part of the journey. Why give up part of it?"

"Then what you're saying is that you gained something just now by dealing with profiteers, so doesn't it count as a loss?"

"Yes, I helped you so that you didn't waste your money. Now you invite me to drink coffee and we can sit together and chat. These are all gains."

When Fu Chu finished saying this, the waiter just brought the coffee they ordered.

Leila held the coffee cup with both hands, took a small peck, and then a satisfied smile appeared on her face.

"I'm happy chatting with you."

"Really? I'm quite happy too." Fu Chu also picked up the cup and took a sip of the slightly bitter coffee. Leisure time like this is a very beautiful part of life.

The time for a cup of coffee passed quickly. After drinking the coffee, Fu Chu planned to leave. After all, he and Laila had just met for a while.

However, just when Fu Chu was about to speak, Laila's head moved slowly and her eyes slowly closed, as if she would fall asleep at any time.

Before Fu Chu could react and use Fu to wake up Laila, she was already lying on the table, barely touching the coffee cup on the ground.

"Ah... I was drinking coffee just now, why did I fall asleep?"

As soon as Fu Chu finished speaking, Laila sat up straight and her expression became different from before.

"Sir, sometimes coffee can help you sleep." After saying that, Layla asked the waiter to serve another cup of coffee.

Looking at Laila in front of him, Fu Chu narrowed his eyes and said, "You are not Laila, or should be said to be another Laila."

"That's right, my little secret can't be hidden from people like you." The other party was not surprised that Fu Chu could see it, but admitted it openly, "Let me introduce you again, my name is Laila."

"Fu Chu, a traveler."

At this time Laila smiled and said, "You are not an ordinary traveler. I also went to see what happened at the Demonic Mountains a few days ago. I finally brought Laila here from the Order Academy and almost returned it. I thought there was going to be chaos in Port Ormos too.”

"Oh, what do you mean, you expected that Xumi City would be unsafe next, so you took Leila to Port Ormos?"

"Yes, in order to allow her to stay in Port Omos with peace of mind, I also booked a hotel for a month, which is non-refundable. But she just took almost all the molas to buy an astrolabe. , she may have a hard time in the next period of time."

Speaking of this, the coffee ordered by Leila also arrived. She slowly added sugar cubes to it, as if she was not the one who was on the verge of bankruptcy.
