The man called Chen Jiu slithered away. Based on Shopkeeper Lin's reaction, this Chen Jiu was a repeat offender.
When shopkeeper Lin came out and saw Lin Yuelan, he was pleasantly surprised. It meant that he would have new goods.
He spent 380 taels on buying the tiger from Lin Yuelan, but he sold it for more than that. He earned around 100 taels in profit.
Shopkeeper Lin smiled at Lin Yuelan and said, "Miss Lin, you're here! Are you selling anything today?"
Lin Yuelan looked at shopkeeper Lin's sinister smile and secretly pouted. She thought internally, 'What a sly fox. The attendant would have told him that I've bought wild ginseng this time.'
Lin Yuelan smiled at the shopkeeper, "Shopkeeper Lin, how much do you think this ginseng can be sold for?" Lin Yuelan pointed at the ginseng wrapped in a piece of paper on the counter.
