Chapter 21: Mr. Ross, Impressive!

Translator: Zayn_

“Ah?”

Hearing Ross’s words, Ackerman was stunned.

“Mr. Ross, did I hear wrongly?”

“What do you mean?”

“Besides the [Normal HP Potion] that you ordered previously, you still want to buy all the [Beginner HP Potions] today?”

Ross nodded with a smile.

“Got it, Mr. Ross.”

“I can only say that Mr. Ross is too generous. I couldn’t react for a moment.”

The smile on Ackerman’s face became even brighter.

“Please wait a moment. I’ll take a look at today’s stock.”

“I prepared a total of 134 bottles of [Beginner HP Potion] today.”

“Excluding the five bottles that this little brother wants to buy, a total of 129 bottles.”

“Oh, is that so?”

Ross’s brows twitched slightly, and he immediately pretended to be troubled.

“Tsk, tsk, tsk, is it that unlucky?”

“How nerve-racking.”

“One hundred and twenty-nine bottles. It doesn’t seem like it’s enough…”

Hmm?

Ross’s tone seemed to have a deeper meaning.

Ackerman was stunned.

His gaze quickly swept across Lu Qingge and Ross’s faces.

As an old businessman who had been in this business for many years, he was very confident.

Ackerman’s eyesight had always been far superior to ordinary people.

In a short moment, he understood what was going on.

The young captain of the famous Iron Wolf gang in town, Mr. Ross.

Compared to the little brother in front of him who was dressed in shabby clothes and equipment.

It didn’t seem to be too much to deal with.

Therefore, what Ross wanted wasn’t the 129 bottles of potions.

It was the five bottles in the little brother’s hand.

As for this little brother, Ackerman also felt that he looked familiar.

He had probably heard of it somewhere or seen it before, but he didn’t have a deep impression of it.

But all in all, the status of these two people in Gran Town… it was obvious that there was a huge difference between the two.

As an experienced businessman, Ackerman wasn’t a fool.

Under such circumstances, in order to maximize the benefits, he naturally knew what to do.

“I’m sorry, little brother.”

Ackerman helplessly spread his hands and looked at Lu Qingge, saying, “Today’s [Beginner HP Potion] has already been reserved. There’s no stock left.”

“Do you want to consider [Normal HP Potion]?”

Lu Qingge’s brows furrowed slightly.

Ackerman’s words sounded nice, but in fact, it was not nonsense.

[Beginner HP Potion] was specially made for players around LV1-LV5.

Normal HP Potion was targeted at players between LV5 and LV10.

In the new world, the overall quality of the human body would increase with the level of the character and the attributes of the interface.

From then on, players of different levels had different adaptability and tolerance to consumables of different levels.

Therefore, if players with lower levels forcefully used a higher-level consumable, it would not be able to unleash the effects of a high-level consumable.

For example, the current Lu Qingge.

If he used [Normal HP Potion], it was very likely that the HP recovered would be similar to that of an Beginner potion.

Forget it. The bigger risk was that Lu Qingge might suffer some adverse side effects.

Therefore, Lu Qingge could not buy Normal HP Potion at all.

After all, even if he bought it, he wouldn’t be able to use it.

Not to mention the price of the Normal HP Potion, which was much higher than the Beginner HP Potion.

In reality, Lu Qingge understood what Ackerman meant.

He could also tell that his relationship with Ross was not ordinary.

Perhaps they were afraid of the influence of the Iron Wolf Gang in Gran Town.

Or perhaps he had some strange deal with Ross in secret.

All in all, Ackerman was very happy to hug Ross’s thigh.

Therefore, at this moment, the first come, first served rule was meaningless.

Even if he argued for it, these two fellows would find all sorts of reasons to refuse to sell the [Beginner HP Potion] to him.

“If I’m not wrong, Ross probably wants to use this method to suppress my leveling efficiency.”

Lu Qingge thought to himself.

Regretfully, even though Lu Qingge had already seen through Ross’s little thoughts, he was still worried.

He couldn’t do anything to Ross.

After all, with Ross’s current status, he could already be called the local boss of Gran Town.

If a nobody like him went head-on against him, it was definitely not a rational thing to do.

For the current him, it was best to hide from the light for now.

Then, he would quietly develop and wait for the opportunity to counterattack.

Thinking of this…

Lu Qingge smiled and said calmly, “Ah, then there’s no need.”

After saying that, he waved his hand, turned around and left the Warm Spring Store.

After Lu Qingge walked far away, Ackerman then retracted his gaze from his back.

Then, he smiled at Ross and said, “Mr. Luo is indeed extraordinary.”

“I can tell. This young brother is obviously convinced by your aura.”

“You flatter me. I don’t dare to accept this.”

Ross’s lips couldn’t help but curl up into a smile.

His fingertips tapped lightly on the cash counter.

After a while, Ross narrowed his eyes and looked at Ackerman with a faint smile.

“Recently, the stock of the Warm Spring Spring Store shouldn’t be plentiful, right?”

Ackerman met Ross’s meaningful gaze, however, he was not in a hurry at all.

Instead, he nodded and said without hesitation, “Yes.”

“Generally speaking, if nothing unexpected happens, As long as the little brother just now comes, the inventory is insufficient.”

At this moment.

Ross could no longer hide the smile on his face.

“Very good, very good!”

Ross patted Ackerman’s shoulder hard, his eyes full of praise.

“Mr. Ackerman, with a boss like you who has opened up the way, it’s no wonder the Warm Spring Store is thriving like it is now.”

Ross was in a very good mood.

It could be said that…

It was comparable to a free little bird that had broken out of its cage.

That’s why!

In terms of dealing with people, of course, it was more comfortable to be with smart people!

Ross’ face revealed a satisfied smile.

Ackerman was delighted.

He rolled his eyes and quickly struck while the iron was hot, “Hehe. That’s because Mr. Ross taught me well!”

“Oh, right. Mr. Ross, you’re so generous.”

“Then look at the tax that our Warm Spring Store has to pay this year…”

Ross smiled knowingly.

“Don’t worry. It’s not like you don’t know what the relationship between the president of the association and me is…”

Ackerman immediately took the most expensive pack of cigarettes from the shelf.

Then, he pulled one out.

Smiling brightly, he lit the cigarette for Ross.

“Hehe!”

“As expected, you live up to your reputation!”

“Mr. Ross, you’re still as generous as ever!”

“You’re flattering me again, aren’t you?”

“Hehe, happy cooperation!”

“Happy cooperation.”
