“Of course,” Shaun replied. This price might not be expensive in the middle stage, but it was impossible in the early stage. He was just trying to attract more attention by pricing it like this.

Since the target was here, Shawn had achieved his goal.

Furthermore, Shawn had other plans if he wanted to run this profit for a long time.

Shawn hesitated for a moment before saying, “$7 per kilogram. I’ll give you as much as you want.”

Jeffrey narrowed his eyes, then looked into Shawn’s eyes deeply.

He knew that the price was still too high.

Just as he was about to refuse, Shawn saw another choice appear above his head.

[Name: Jeffrey, Favorability: 20]

Shawn smiled even wider at the options above Jeffrey’s head.

This golden finger was more powerful than he had imagined.

However, this price was too low.

If he changed it to $10, would another choice appear?

No, the initial price was $10, but there were no choices available then.

If that was the case, it meant that the function of this golden finger could only be revealed after the customer has different thoughts.

Simply put, when the client could not make up his mind.

In this case, he did not agree to the $10 price at the time, because he was very clear that he would not buy it at that price.

After the price dropped to $7, he began to feel conflicted.

Although he was a little disappointed, Shawn was still very satisfied with the outcome.

If the system was really that awesome, he would not have to work so hard anymore.

Shawn could just find Buffett and ask him to give him all his properties.

At that time, if he could control Buffett’s choices, wouldn’t he easily become the richest man in the world?

[Choice made, Karma Points 1/25]

There was a flash of white, and Jeffrey, who was about to reject the offer, seemed stunned.

Then, he said, “Sure, I can accept $7, but I need you to supply me continuously and steadily.”

“Of course. You’re a great partner.” Shawn shook Jeffrey’s hand again.

While Jeffrey felt a little weird internally, he quickly convinced himself about this.

Finally, he smiled and said, “You’re a good young man too. I’ll remember you.”

“Then let’s have a pleasant cooperation.” Shawn was not timid, nor was he excited by the huge profits that were about to come.

Instead, due to his experiences in the previous life, he displayed the unique temperament of someone who held a superior position.

Jeffrey faltered slightly upon sensing the aura emanating from Shawn’s body. The young man before him was indeed extraordinary.

He had only seen such a confident and composed disposition from very few people.

At this point, Jeffrey dispelled the last of his worries and said with a smile: “Happy cooperation.”

Unlike the two main characters, Shawn’s father was dumbfounded.

What happened?

Why did he not understand anything?

What New York Times? What plan was this?

Speaking of which, did someone really buy it for $7 per kilogram?

Were all the people in the city fools?

In just a minute, the old man experienced the most ridiculous shock in the world.

Except that he was the beneficiary.

Although it was baffling, why was this feeling so strange?

Just like Shawn’s father, the onlookers were also speechless.

What was going on?

There was actually someone who bought such a common vegetable at this price?

He actually paid $7 per kilogram for it.

Oh goodness, was this person an angel sent by God?

All the people who had doubted Shawn were now doubting life.

“I, I, I, I, what is going on here?”

“Did I miss something?”

“No, no, I don’t believe it. How can anyone buy it at this price?”

“Hey, don’t talk so much. I’m going to gather it now. I don’t need $7. Just pay me half.”

“I think it’s a scam? How can anyone be so stupid? Everyone, be careful not to be fooled.”

“That’s right, I also think it’s fake. How can anyone buy this thing for $7 per kilogram?”

….

Soon, both parties started to transact. In the end, the purslane on Shawn’s truck weighed 2,500 kilograms.

According to the price of $7 per kilogram, the total price was $17,500.

Deducting the ones that are going to wilt, Jeffrey gave him $17,300 in total.

Both parties transacted in cash.

Jeffrey pulled out the large leather purse tucked under his right arm.

He unzipped it and revealed a thick stack of US dollars.

He took out some money and handed it to Shawn.

Shawn checked the notes briefly, the amount was correct, so he gave his father the money.

Shawn’s father was dumbfounded when he saw the money.

His hands were shaking and he did not know what to do.

After all, the cost of acquiring the 2,500 kilograms was only $2,500.

In less than six hours, they had gotten back seven times the amount.

Such a huge profit was something he could not earn in an entire year.

At this moment, Shawn’s father felt as if his heart could not take it anymore.

He looked at Shawn with shock, disbelief, and pride.

He could not help but think.

Is this my son?

This is the son I have raised for decades?

God bless, God bless!!

As he thought about it, the old man could not help but shed tears.

Shawn knew what his father was thinking.

The old man had been poor all his life.

Even in America, the world’s most powerful country, the poor still struggled.

Jeffrey seemed to understand the state of the old man.

He also admired the young man in front of him.

Thus, he walked over and greeted with a smile, “Old man, you have a good son.”

Looking at Jeffrey, the old man said in a laughing and crying tone, “Thank you. Thank you.”

“You’re welcome. It’s a fair trade,” Jeffrey said with a smile, he then called for someone to deliver the goods to New York.

The people who were watching outside, the person who mocked their actions, wanted to dig a hole and hide in it.

It was such a huge blow to them.

They had just said that he was daydreaming, but who would have thought that they would be humiliated in just a few seconds?

However, the most important thing now was to find that sucker.

Regardless of who he was, such a high price was equivalent to giving them money for free.

Thus, a group of people swarmed toward Jeffrey.
