Huo Sining pretended not to understand, but the shop owner got anxious and quickly shook his head to explain, "How could it be forty thousand? These are antiques, they can't be that cheap. I said four hundred thousand, miss, are you joking?"
Huo Sining immediately feigned surprise, stepping back in mock shock, "Boss, your price is outrageous. These things are rusty. Even if they are antiques, they're worthless. I just happen to be writing an experiment report on bronze and iron artifacts and lack materials, so I thought I'd buy these from you as samples. But your price is too high, I'll just look elsewhere."
Huo Sining spoke as if it were true. She had used this trick back home, so she executed it smoothly without a single flaw.
After hearing this, the shop owner looked at Huo Sining's youthful appearance and the backpack she carried, and instantly believed her. Seeing her pull Nara Nigawa to leave, he became anxious.
