_{“But I still do need to examine these skins first. Is that alright with you?” The round-face manager asked with a glint in his eyes.}
Because he had spent too much time outdoors, Cang Xingye was scolded by his mother when he returned. As for his older brother, even he couldn’t escape his mother’s anger. But compared to Cang Xingye, who received a light breeze’s worth of scolding, Cang Xingyan received a gust. So, for a good portion of that evening, he was taken away to endure a lengthy lecture.

“But I still do need to examine these skins first. Is that alright with you?” The round-face manager asked with a glint in his eyes.

_{But this time, he seemed to have arrived a bit too early, as the shop before him was still closed.}
Dawn, when all were still nestled and dreaming in their beds, the infamous Ji Yu carried a large sack stuffed full of animal pelts out of the village of Liu.

But this time, he seemed to have arrived a bit too early, as the shop before him was still closed.

_{Ji Yu kept his eyes trained on the manager the entire time, his pupils barely shifting at all. “Is everything alright?”}
Over the past decade, continuous hunting has resulted in the accumulation of numerous pelts from wild beasts. So, every now and again, he had to sell off some of it with how much space they took up in his house.

Ji Yu kept his eyes trained on the manager the entire time, his pupils barely shifting at all. “Is everything alright?”

_{“...” At his swift motions, the round-face manager felt his heart lurch in his chest. The act reminded him that the man in front of him was a hunter who was very used to slicing things like rope.}“...” At his swift motions, the round-face manager felt his heart lurch in his chest.

_{It’s good. It’s all good. The craftsmanship is good. So how about this? I will add some money to the price we agreed upon last time. I promise you won’t suffer any losses.” Beads of sweat ran down the manager’s back at Ji Yu’s unwavering and piercing gaze, to the point where he slapped on a grin and increased the price.}
Ji Yu moved swiftly. Despite Liu Village being two hours away from Qinglan County, it took him only an hour to get to the county’s entrance in just an hour by foot.

_{“How much are you thinking?” Ji Yu’s gaze stayed unbroken.}
After entering through the city gates, Ji Yu skillfully weaved through several streets until he arrived at a store labelled “furs and hides” that he had been to countless times before.

“How much are you thinking?” Ji Yu’s gaze stayed unbroken.

_{“Twenty... no, thirty taels more than the original price.” The trembling manager extended three fingers as he spoke.}
It was no worry for Ji Yu, however. Putting the large sack on the ground, he walked over to a neighbouring stall to buy ten steamed buns and two bowls of congee. Seeing the fierce look of their newest customer, the owner of the stall gave more than half the usual serving of congee than normal. Ji Yu only gave them a passing glance, saying nothing as he drank his congee. By the time his meal was almost done, the furs and hides shop was open.

_{Dawn, when all were still nestled and dreaming in their beds, the infamous Ji Yu carried a large sack stuffed full of animal pelts out of the village of Liu.}
“Morning.” Gulping the last bit of congee and stuffing the final half of a bun in his mouth, Ji Yu got up, lifted his sack, and strode over to the pelt shop’s clerk.

_{“Agreed. I’ll take it.” Ji Yu swiftly stuck out his palm to the round-face manager to accept his money.}It was no worry for Ji Yu, however.

_{“Oh, you’re here?” The round-face manager hurried out to the counter, his eyes quickly falling on the stacked pile of hides, answering his question.}

_{I never expected this! The last time Ji Yu came there, he told the man that tanned hides were better for selling and fetched a better price. He had even told him the pricing structure, but he did so with little serious thought or expectations in mind. Yet this man not only remembered, but he brought the tanned products there directly.}

With trembling hands, he flipped through the animal skins one by one, carefully examining each as he did. He realised each one was tanned extraordinarily well. The technique was outstanding. The craftsmanship even surpassed his own.
