Apocalypse Plunder Merchant

“An eight-carat diamond ring, and you want to trade it for three cases of instant noodles? No deal, no deal. One case at most. What good is this thing? You can't eat it.”

“Gold and bread are worth the same. One gold piece for one loaf of bread. Deal or no deal? If not, get lost. Plenty of people want to trade.”

“You ask why I still want gold and diamonds at a time like this? I damn well enjoy looking at them, all right? What's it to you? I've got food, so I can do whatever I want.”

Meanwhile...

“An eight-carat diamond ring in exchange for enhanced physical abilities, plus three bags of flour, ten jin of sausage, twenty bottles of purified water, and several steamed buns. Deal.”

“Ring of Time-Space Exchange, I love you so much.”
