Across Ranch Story: Friends of Mineral Town

Huo An was worried. Could it be that she was angry because he didn't cook rabbit meat for her yesterday?

Or did she find that the price she was paid for her goods was too low?

Or what if she found out that the goods sold to her were 2% more expensive than outside?

Although Huo An was thinking a lot, he still had a serious face: "I am an honest businessman and I will never let my customers down. Don't slander me casually!"

Lin Xia snorted, still staring at Huo An without saying a word.

Huo An shuddered at the sound of the snort and said weakly, "What happened? Tell me!"

Lin Xia took out the simple toy tent with an expressionless face.

Huo An heaved a sigh of relief when he saw it. I had the answer to this question ready: "What's wrong with this tent? I didn't charge you for it, but I gave it to you for free."

Lin Xia: "Although I didn't charge you, you gave it to me as an apology. You praised the quality of this tent so highly at the time. Don't you feel guilty?"

"No." Huo An said cheerfully, "I wasn't exaggerating at the time. Think about what I said at the time."

Lin Xia looked at his smug expression and felt something was wrong. She carefully recalled the situation at that time:

"This is a great thing. You don't have to set it up yourself. It only takes two steps and the tent is ready."

"The first step is to untie the straps, and the second step is to throw the tent into an open space, and the tent will naturally open up..."

MMP... It really only takes two steps. I was led astray by him at the time. I was questioning the light weight of the tent, but he was clearly talking about the tent itself.

As a result, he was led astray when talking to me about the steps of expanding the tent. I thought that even if the tent didn't have a three-bedroom and one-living-room structure, it would be fine as long as the tent had a one-bedroom and one-living-room structure with a mattress, table and chairs!

As a result, I was fooled by this old guy and was careless!

Huo An looked at Lin Xia's face, which turned pale and blue, with pride, and felt happy inside.

"Forget it, just consider it my carelessness. I'm leaving now!" Lin Xia packed up the tent on the ground and prepared to carry the roe deer and pheasants.

Huo An was dumbfounded: "Hey, hey, no, haven't you figured it out? Why don't you sell it to me?"

"Humph~ You deliberately misled me and gave me a toy like this. How could I be in a good mood?"

"No, no~ Good Lin Xia, isn't it okay if I'm wrong? If you leave the roe deer and pheasant behind, I'll find you a good tent. How about that? I guarantee you'll be satisfied!"

"Can I still trust you? You don't even have many reliable words!"

"How can you say that? This hurts my heart. If you don't believe me, I'll take it out and show it to you!" Huo An went to rummage through his warehouse angrily, and after a while he took out two storage boxes.

"Come, come, take a look at the tent sets I have here." As he said that, he led Lin Xia out of the door and onto the beach. He opened one of the boxes, took out something from it and threw it onto the open ground. A tall tent that was more than 5 meters long and 3 meters wide stood on the beach.

Following Huo An in, I found that it was a one-bedroom and one-living room layout, with a rectangular room inside and a square space outside.

Huo An took out an air mattress, a stand, a chandelier, and a sleeping bag from the box and started decorating the bedroom one by one.

After the bedroom was decorated, he went to the outer room and took out tables, chairs, benches, stands, simple stoves, etc.

These are the tents in Lin Xia’s mind!

Lin Xia's eyes lit up as she looked at him, and she asked happily, "Is this suit for me?"

Huo An: "Your roe deer and pheasant are far from enough to buy this! This one-bedroom and one-living room set costs 30G!"

Lin Xia's expression changed in an instant: "Then why did you show it to me?"

"I want you to see that I have some good stuff here, don't I?" Huo An said proudly, "This is just a simple version. See my box? It has three bedrooms and one living room, including a bedroom, a lounge, and a kitchen. The internal facilities are even more complete. You can take this tent with you and live there for a few months!"

"How much will that cost?"

"300 million G!"

"Goodbye!" Lin Xia turned around and tried to leave, but Huo An pulled her back. "Hey, don't worry! Although you are poor now, I believe you will have a bright future! How about this, I will let you pay for this 30 yuan tent in installments. Pay the down payment today, and then pay it back every 10 days until it is paid off? How about that?"

"Thank you! But no, I'm not traveling far now, so there's no need to buy such a luxurious tent. I just want a simple tent where I can have a good rest for a few hours when I'm tired from working outside!" Lin Xia refused.

Huo An was extremely disappointed. Ever since he came to this small town, he found that everyone in this town stayed at home, all guarding their own little piece of land, with no spirit of adventure at all.

As a result, I had a lot of good camping equipment that I couldn't sell. Then someone who was interested in it came, but she was extremely poor. If I sold it to her at a low price, I wouldn't be willing to do so. If I sold it to her at a high price, she wasn't stupid. It was so frustrating!

"Don't you have a one-room tent that's better than a toy tent and a little worse than the 30 yuan one that can accommodate an inflatable mattress and a sleeping bag?" Lin Xia asked helplessly.

"What one-room tent? Who wants this thing? Why would I sell something that has no market for it?" Huo An said unhappily.

As he spoke, he began to pack up the tent. It's no wonder that this tent is so expensive. Not only is it easy to put up, it's also easy to put away. You can fold it up, and the inflatable mattress and tent can be put away with just one click.

Lin Xia looked at it with envy, but it really wasn't worth spending money to buy something that had been idle for the past six months.

Seeing Huo An's frustrated look, Lin Xia said, "Alright, alright, I'll sell you the roe deer and pheasant. Name your price!"

"Really?" Huo An immediately brightened up and rubbed his hands, "Don't worry, I will definitely give you a fair price and won't let you down! Roe deer 6, pheasant 5000!"

"Okay!" Lin Xia had no objection. The roe deer was a pleasant surprise, and the price was within her expectations.

"By the way, Brother Huo, I want to buy some animal collection tools. I have a rabbit at home and I want to get rid of it. Do you have any weapons that can help me?"

"Do you think I'm the Dragon King of the East China Sea? Do you have any weapons?" Huo An said, "But there are tools for collecting. Do you want to buy just one knife, or the whole set?"

"How much is a knife? How about a complete set?" Lin Xia was curious.

"This, this cutting knife, is very sharp, and it will be no problem for bleeding and skinning. The fixed price is 1 Gold! For the whole set, in addition to this knife, there are also various machetes, hooks, razors, shaving knives, and containers for storing different parts of animals, etc., a set costs 50 Gold!"

Lin Xia: "You know I'm poor, but you still ask me if I want a suit. Do you think I can afford it?"

"Haha~ I forgot for a moment that you have no money. This is something I'm used to. Then just take a knife!"

Lin Xia: "Can you make it cheaper? You charge me 1 for a knife. Don't you feel guilty? 5000!"

Huo An: "Who bargains like you? Cut it in half! I've already said there's no second price!"

"Brother Huo, you said I was poor. How about half of it? I'll kill a rabbit and bring you meat. How about that?"
