'' Boss , you're kidding me . how much are your Goldfish ? I will take them all , '' said the pretty lady with a glare when she heard what Wang Xian told her boyfriend .

'' Babe , your boyfriend might not be able to afford it . '' Wang Xian replied with a smile .

'' What ? did you just say that i can't afford it ? '' the young man peered at him . scornfully , he held up the car keys in his hand , '' Did you say that i can't afford it ? ''

Wang Xian looked at the BMW car keys in his hand . probably a 5 series that worth about five to six hundred thousand dollars .

'' What kind of Goldfish are they ? why are they in a Styrofoam box ?'' a middle aged man came over with curiosity when he overheard their conversations .

another old man popped his head over from the side .

Wang Xian grinned at the middle aged man , '' A premium Chilli Red Arowana and five Redcap Brown Orandas .''

'' What ? Redcap Brown Orandas ? '' the middle aged man was slightly stunned as he squatted down hurriedly .

'' They are Redcap Brown Orandas ! they are ! '' the middle aged man looked at the Redcap Brown Orandas in the Styrofoam box dumbfounded .

'' Are they very expensive ? '' the pretty lady asked with doubt when she saw the astonished look of the middle aged man .

 '' Yes , '' he nodded , '' I did not expect there would be five . they look even more exquisite than those in the exhibition . they are beautiful . just too beautiful . there were two Redcap Brown Orandas in the fair , priced at $ 430,000 each . i heard they sold two of them yesterday .'' 

'' What ? each of them cost $430,000 ? '' the pretty lady gasped with an unbelievable expression .

the young man at the side had his eyes wide open as he looked at the Goldfish in the Styrofoam box again . he stuttered , '' How ... how could this be possible ? '' 

'' The Redcap Brown Orandas are the most noble breed among the Goldfish breeds  i won't be exaggerating to say it's one of hundreds and thousands or more , '' said the middle aged man at a steady pace .

'' This Arowana is a beautiful Chili Red Arowana it is so beautiful .''

the old man who popped his head over was not paying attention to the Redcap Brown Orandas . instead , he fixed his gaze upon the Red Arowana .

'' How is it , sir ? this is the premium Chili Red Arowana .'' Wang Xian asked smilingly when he saw the old man staring at the Chili Red Arowana . he knew he met someone who understood the value of the fish .

'' Highest Quality ! '' the old man exclaimed . '' This is the most beautiful Arowana I've ever seen . young chap , how can you contain it in a cheap Styrofoam box ? you are ...               you are ...''  

the old man kept shaking his head as he exclaimed .

'' This Arowana does look beautiful , but i don't really know much about Arowana . sir , is this really a premium grade ?'' asked the middle aged man doubtfully .

'' Not only is this a premium grade Arowana , i doubt the previous one from Town Wen was worth three million was any better quality than this . the Chili Red scales give off a shiny glow , and the barbel at the mouth is prominent . this is simply beautiful . young chap , how much are you selling this Arowana for ? '' asked the old man as he exclaimed .

Wang Xian went silent for a while when he heard the old man . he pondered before he answered , '' Three million . i'll sell this for three million . on the other hand , i'll sell these Redcap Brown Orandas at $350,000 each .''
