With his insane bargaining skills, Theo has once again proven why he’s one of the best merchants in the tower. This time Theo has also earned the recognition of Zerath, which is pretty huge for his overall standing. Theo is now all set to return to Sejun so that he can rest, and Sejun is also getting prepared for Theo’s arrival by cooking his freshly caught crayfish!
Solo Farming In The Tower Chapter 37 opens up with Theo getting promoted to a mid-level merchant. He celebrates this occasion and Zerath also compliments his growth.
Zerath then goes along with Theo to the trading market to buy all the necessary stuff. Zerath becomes extremely cautious while entering the trading market because it is a place where wandering merchants could get scammed pretty easily.
Recap
In Zerath’s words, The Trading Market is an area where wandering merchants can show off their skills. The Trading Market consists of various shops and showcases including an auction house where one can buy the best items from farmers and craft workshops on each floor at the best prices. Depending on how much profit or loss a merchant makes while buying this stuff, their abilities as a merchant are evaluated.
Zerath believes that the Trading Market is a battlefield that doesn’t tolerate even a moment’s hesitation. He patiently waits to see what kind of techniques Theo will use this time, as this place is very different from the Junk Shop they visited the other day.
After walking for a while, Theo finally decides the shop he would buy his goods from, and to Zerath’s surprise, it’s a miscellaneous goods shop. All the Readers are already aware of how famous these miscellaneous shops are for ripping off their customers, but Theo still decides to buy at such a place.
Theo orders two cooking utensils, thread, and a needle set which kind of shocks Zerath as he thought Theo would buy some wholesale items to sell on other floors. Theo reminds Zerath once again that he only sells Cherries and Tomatoes. Zerath gets depressed because he thought he’d finally see Theo’s skills, but it seems that won’t happen now.
The Shop owner tells Theo that the cost of all the items is 2.4 tower coins which immediately catches Zerath’s attention. Zerath knows that the pots are cheap and the cost should be less than 2 Tower coins, but he decides to let Theo handle the situation. As expected, Theo doesn’t just allow others to rip him off.
Theo immediately counters the shop owner by asking for a discount. The shop owner tries to sway Theo by offering the items for 2.4 tower coins, but it is still expensive.
Zerath just stands back and observes how Theo would win this negotiation. The Shop is trying to be cunning and take advantage of Theo, but he doesn’t know that Theo isn’t going to go down that easily.
Theo asks for more discount from the shop owner but this time he refuses to lower the price. Theo decides to just leave if he doesn’t get a good price but seeing his customer walk away, the Shop owner finally lowers his price to 2 Tower Coins.
Of course, Theo doesn’t accept even a 2 Tower Coins deal and offers 1.8 Tower Coins as his final price, or he would just leave. Getting utterly defeated by Theo, the Shop owner eventually agrees. After observing this fierce negotiation, Zerath becomes sure that Theo is a genius at negotiations and that this duel wasn’t fair from the start.
The focus then shifts to Sejun planting even more tomatoes and cherries with the help of his animals. Suddenly Sejun finds that his infinite water kettle has mysteriously run out of water so he checks it out. The rabbits come running towards Sejun to tell him about some anomaly in the pond and so Sejun goes along with them.
Sejun arrives at the pond and finds that it is filled with crayfish. Even though the cause of the Crayfish’s appearance is unknown, it is still a blessing nonetheless. Sejun decides to catch all the Crayfish so that he can make something delicious out of them!
