Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master novel Chapter 192

"What are you still doing in here?" the boss asked curiously as he looked back and saw that Rocky still sitting there, feeling embarrassed for what he had just said.

"If I leave, you'll miss a once in a lifetime opportunity. Are you really willing to let this chance to make big money slip right through your fingers?" Rocky asked in reply as he folded his arms across his chest.

"What exactly are you saying?" The boss looked curiously at Rocky. He was wondering why this obscurely dressed country boy had such high levels of self-confidence to actually say the things coming out of his mouth.

Rocky flashed a smile as he put down the basket on his back. He took out a piece of hide of a two-star Swamp Crocodile and handed it to the boss. "This right here is the hide of a one-star Swamp Crocodile. How much do you think is it worth?"

Upon hearing Rocky's words, the boss stared at him in surprise. He then began to examine the hide more closely as if he was an expert on crocodile skin.

"It seems like it really is the hide of a two-star Swamp Crocodile. Where exactly did you get this?" The boss asked as he was astonished by what was shown to him.

"I would prefer not to say. There are a lot of good things like this inside my basket. Do you have any interest in selling them for me?" Rocky said in an estranged voice.

"Anything valuable in the basket?" The boss stared at the basket with his wide eyes. 'Could it be a treasure basket?' He thought to himself.

"There's something way better hidden inside of it. Do you have any questions?" Rocky replied as he raised his eyebrows.

"Something even better than the hide of a two-star Swamp Crocodile?" The boss was totally stunned by Rocky's reply. He bowed to apologize, "I have been both blind and ignorant until just now. Please don't stoop down to my level. It would be completely unnecessary. I know that you are a big-hearted man. Would you mind giving me a minute of your time to talk in private?" The boss was obviously a weathercock and an artful person.

To see is to believe. Most people would believe what they see rather than what they hear. The boss had examined Rocky's hides of Swamp Crocodile very closely and had already given him his full. He altered his attitude and began to be more respectful towards Rocky.

After a while, the boss led Rocky to a guest room next to the auction house where he was received with utmost respect. He bowed before him and muttered sugarcoated words.

"Will you please tell me more about what you really have?" The boss asked politely. He was very shrewd yet sophisticated.

"I have about twenty or thirty of its kind," Rocky replied flatly.

The boss swallowed to clear his throat. He was surprised by what Rocky had said so he asked Rocky as soon as he pulled himself together, "About twenty or thirty of its kind? That is an impressive number."

"They mean absolutely nothing to me," Rocky replied. He thought to himself, 'I can get forty or fifty of its kind without any trouble if I wanted to. Because Uriah's unique magical saliva can easily lure these mysterious beasts into my trap.'

"Would you mind bringing them out so I could look at them more closely?" To make sure that everything would go according to plan, the boss requested politely.

"Please, be my guest," Rocky replied as he shrugged his shoulders.

After a while, the boss called three attendants in. They began to bring out the skins and bones of the spirit-manipulated beast from his wicker basket.

Once they were finished counting, the boss and the three attendants all stood there in shock. They were all bewildered by the sheer variety and quantity of the goods he had with him.

Take the crocodile skin for instance. There were five pieces of hides of two-star Swamp Crocodiles that were very valuable and hard to find.

The boss turned into an avid fan of Rocky.

"I don't want anyone else hearing about this. No one else is allowed to know that I am the vendor. I am hoping that you can help me keep my secret," Rocky insisted.

"You have nothing to worry about. You have my word. I'll keep my mouth shut!" The boss hurriedly nodded in agreement. He handed Rocky the inventory and said, "There are 28 categories in total. The quantity of each category has been clearly marked for your convenience. If we put up the goods in an auction for you, the Super Beast Farm will have to charge a commission fee of 30%. Do you agree to these terms?"
