Invincible Urban Evil Doctor

Chapter 527: Chapter 555: Big Business (First Update)

Last night during his cultivation, Lin Xi observed the Dragon Egg again. The hair-thin crack had widened to ten times its original size.

It seemed as though at any moment, the dragon hatchling could break out of the shell!

Moreover, the Dragon Marrow encapsulating it has been drastically reducing over the past few days. Though it pained him greatly to see, he didn’t take its Dragon Marrow again.

After all, this is the last thing its mother left it, and he did take over a hundred pounds last time.

Honestly speaking, Lin Xi couldn’t help but be thrilled at the thought of the dragon hatchling emerging.

This is Huaxia’s legendary divine dragon, a sacred, noble, powerful being, gathering all such terms in one existence, far surpassing those lizard-like dragons of the West.

Imagining the future, riding a golden divine dragon under his hips as he roams the skies, how incredibly handsome, elegant, and unrivaled!

Wouldn’t the world’s finest beauties flock to him?

Just thinking about it is exhilarating, so Lin Xi must first visit the market to prepare a large quantity of meat for the dragon hatchling that could emerge at any time.

After asking around casually, he learned where the largest market in South City is located!

Not too far from the school, Lin Xi took less than fifteen minutes to get there.

It’s a two-story building, resembling a massive factory, bustling with people during the busiest time!

The first floor has meat, vegetables, seafood, and various cooked foods, while the second floor has all kinds of dry goods and special items.

One could say that whatever the market has, it can be found here.

"Beef, lamb, pork..." Lin Xi, while browsing the first floor, found that many were selling, but each had a limited quantity.

Of course, it’s enough for ordinary people, but he wants various kinds of meat, each amounting to over five hundred pounds.

"Little brother, what do you need? I have all kinds of beef here—imported from Australia, the United States, Argentina, and more!" A butcher saw Lin Xi passing by and enthusiastically introduced.

Lin Xi nodded. This store indeed had diverse meat types, and the quantities looked plentiful,

"I’ll just take Inner Mongolia beef, but I need a large amount!"

"How much do you need? Just say it!" The butcher wasn’t too concerned but still patted his chest and asked, "As long as you want it, I can get you as much as you need!"

"About a thousand pounds!" Lin Xi said.

The butcher was momentarily stunned upon hearing this, then asked in surprise, "Little brother, you’re not joking?"

Such a large quantity of beef wasn’t available here, but if needed, it could surely be obtained.

Lin Xi shook his head, indicating he wasn’t joking, and also asked, "Buying this much, can I get a discount, boss?"

Even the nearby shopkeepers couldn’t help but look over!

In their eyes, could this young man be joking?

The meat shop owner was a bit bewildered but reflexively replied, "Buying this much, of course there’s a discount!"

"The unit price is forty-eight a pound, but for this amount, I’ll give it to you for forty-five!"

After saying this, the meat shop owner couldn’t help but laugh at himself inwardly, as this young man seemed unlikely to be a procurement staff for hotels or supermarkets!

Even if he were, he wouldn’t be buying from a market!

It seemed he might have misheard, or this young man was joking!

But the next moment, he saw Lin Xi hand over a card with his mobile phone, "Can you swipe cards here?"

The butcher’s hand, which was cutting meat, shook a bit, and he quickly replied, "Yes, yes!"

Just joking, every store has a card reader these days.

"Then swipe the card!" Lin Xi said.

"...Alright, alright."

It wasn’t until Lin Xi entered the password and the card machine deducted forty-five thousand that the owner finally believed what was happening before him was real!

Forty-five thousand!

This is typically a month’s total sales, completed in a blink, seemingly unreal.

This must be a stroke of luck!

But just at this moment, a commotion arose from the vegetable stall not far away.

"Hmm?" Lin Xi was slightly surprised; the sound was very familiar!
