#279 - Chapter 279 Showing His Face

“Notification: Your sale of 2 kg of 8:12 Peony has been completed. Please proceed to the counter to collect your earnings.”

“Notification: Your sale of 8 kg of 8:13 Peony has been completed. Please proceed to the counter to collect your earnings.”

.....

Inside the professional space, Shen Xingyan had just steadied himself when the sales notifications he had set up earlier flooded in like a tide.

He wasn't surprised by this, as he had experienced it before and expected it to happen.

Immediately, he opened the sales record, checked the time of the Peony sales, and roughly browsed the total quantity sold.

When he saw that the sales notifications stopped appearing around ten in the morning, he wasn't puzzled. Instead, a satisfied smile appeared on his face, knowing that this time, the Peony had once again sold out.

Subsequently, he didn't hesitate. After transforming his appearance and checking that his name was automatically hidden, he took out the key to the general store and instantly teleported over.

When he appeared on the street and saw the still dense crowd, he couldn't help but shake his head slightly.

In his heart, he greatly admired the perseverance of these 'sugar daddies'. To be able to spare so much time and effort just to wait for him, they were truly people who could accomplish great things!

“It's a pity. If this kind of thing happened to someone else, they would probably wait for the highest price and push their own value to the sky. Maybe they could even establish a cooperative relationship with one of them.

But they encountered me. The secrets on my body cannot allow the slightest exposure of my real identity, let alone establish communication. Even anonymous leaks are out of the question!

However, you can only blame the allure of the 'Longevity Fruit' and the possibility of 'Longevity' being too tempting!”

Shen Xingyan thought to himself, just as he was about to control the general store and close it for his own entry.

At this moment, he felt a commotion beside him, which made him frown slightly.

“You... Hello, may I ask if you are the owner of this general store?” At this time, a young man and woman appeared beside Shen Xingyan. The man looked very steady and appeared older than Shen Xingyan, while the woman seemed more lively.

The one speaking was the young man, his words filled with flattery, and his eyes looked at Shen Xingyan with some anticipation.

The other lively girl stood slightly behind, looking at the 'old man' in front of her with a curious expression.

After hearing this question, Shen Xingyan didn't answer directly but stroked his white beard and asked in return: “Why do you think I am the owner of this store?”

Due to the transformation mask, Shen Xingyan's voice revealed a strong old age, coupled with his actions, it gave people a sense of an 'old gentleman'.

“We are just making simple guesses based on some phenomena.

After all, there are not many farmer professionals who come here, plus every time you appear, the general store will have some anomalies, so we have this idea. If you are not, please don't blame our rash behavior!”

The man in the pair quickly replied respectfully after hearing Shen Xingyan's question, and the expectation in his eyes became more intense.

After hearing Shen Xingyan not immediately denying but asking this question, his heart surged instantly, sensing that he might have really met the real deal this time!

Their conversation was also heard by the surrounding people, and the entire scene became quiet, all looking at Shen Xingyan, this 'old man', and the more they looked, the more they felt that he revealed an unfathomable aura!

After hearing the man's words, Shen Xingyan thought to himself that it was indeed the case, feeling that he had been somewhat negligent. However, with his current appearance, there was nothing to fear. He directly nodded and said in a hoarse voice:

“You two young people are very smart, to be able to deduce it from such details.

Well, then I have to answer your question directly. That's right, I am the owner of this store, and welcome everyone to visit often!”

As Shen Xingyan said this, he smiled and looked around, then gently waved his hand, and the general store instantly closed. The crowd in the distance also stirred, and at the same time, he disappeared.

At this time, everyone, including the two young people, realized that what this old senior said was true after seeing this situation.

However, before they could react and come forward to talk to the senior, they saw the old senior suddenly disappear, not giving them any chance to communicate!

This made them feel a little regretful, naturally including the two 'discerning' men and women.

With Shen Xingyan's acknowledgment and disappearance, their eyes quickly turned from joy to disappointment.

“Why is this old senior like this? He left after saying a few words, not giving us a chance to say more! Hmph! What a weird old man!” The girl couldn't help but pout and complain softly.

“Don't say that about the old senior. From his previous behavior, we can see that it is already very rare for him to truthfully tell us his identity.

Although this conversation did not formally establish contact, we have learned the other party's appearance characteristics and basic personality, so we can go back and report!”

The man quickly stopped his companion's words and quickly explained.

However, the fact was as he said, it was already worth the trip for them to have such gains today.

As for establishing contact, they were definitely not in a position to make decisions, after all, the old senior was the one with the decision-making power.

The others around also quickly relayed the events that had just happened and the true appearance of this old senior that they had inadvertently discovered.

The whole street instantly became noisy because of Shen Xingyan's appearance, and they also cast admiring glances at the two men and women.

After all, if it weren't for these two people, they wouldn't know what the person they were waiting for looked like until now, let alone report the information to the family!

At this time, inside the general store, Shen Xingyan heard the unusually noisy sound outside, and a faint smile appeared on his face.

“This unintentional exposure, although somewhat unexpected, can increase the confusing nature of my identity, which is beneficial to me.

In this way, even if these people go to the real world to search, they will only stare at those professional players who are over a hundred years old, which is an invisible protection for my 18-year-old self.”
