Chapter 119 9 Ye Shen Sang
"Sir, are you sure?" the woman asked him gently.
The person who was in charge of serving them on the second floor of Bijin Garden was a tall, graceful woman who had been strictly trained in her behavior. As a receptionist, she recognized Yang Shuan and Xia Qingling, so she kindly reminded them.
Before he could respond, a middle-aged man walked over.
"Brother, this kind of jade can't produce anything. It's placed here purely for its unique appearance, as a decoration. Last time, a few of my experienced friends came to see it, and they all shook their heads and gave up."
Wang Xiao relied not on experience but on his real ability to see through things. He smiled back at the other party's kindness.
"I appreciate your advice, uncle, but I have a special liking for this stone, so I'll just treat it as a lesson I've learned."
Seeing that he was determined and spoke casually, the man thought he was the descendant of some important figure and turned around to choose jade.
"I want this piece. Please send it to the pavilion and I will open it myself."
"Good son."
"This piece of jade is so thin, is there really something inside it?" Yang Shuan had heard of coral-shaped jade for a long time, and he even suspected that Wang Xiao had made a mistake.
"Hey, lend me your knife, so you can get some luck."
"for you."
Wang Xiao took it from him, and after some thought he chose to start cutting from the position where the jade radiated.
Just one cut and a fresh scent is released.
His knife was just right. There was only a thin layer of film between the crystal green and the air, so it was not damaged at all, but the scent still seeped out.
This caused quite a stir, and everyone in the second-floor garden focused their eyes here, especially Pan Chengfeng who had been observing and several old men who followed him, who were even more interested.
"Hey, isn't this the ornament? Someone actually took action and got something out of it!"
"Let me see what you have cut out!"
For the people in the imperial city, elixirs and living things are more attractive. They have no shortage of treasures, except, of course, intact holy objects.
"Tsk, it's just a leaf."
Someone was dismissive, and someone immediately retorted: "We have only cut a corner, and there is still a large piece left."
"Young man, hurry up and cut the knife, let us see what you do!" someone urged.
Wang Xiao smiled faintly, neither anxious nor impatient.
He had heard from Yang Shuan that someone would offer a high price to buy the jade when it was halfway through being opened.
He is waiting, waiting for a person with "meta" element.
He continued to cut with precision and grace, making sure not to damage the contents. In this way, people could see through the membrane to the complete leaf, but they could not see what was underneath.
"This leaf looks so familiar." The white-haired old man pondered.
"I think so too. I should have seen it in some ancient book." The old man immediately took out the medical books and looked them up. Not long after, a cry of surprise almost alarmed the manager of Bijin Garden.
"Nine-leaf sacred mulberry!"
"It's actually this, a magical medicine specially used to strengthen the essence and replenish the qi, and to help with cultivation!"
"It is said that if there are five or more leaves, it can cleanse the blood and accelerate the absorption and refining of spiritual energy. If there are nine leaves, after taking it, you can break through to the mortal realm on the spot!"
When Wang Xiao heard this, he thought that everything should be stable now, and he became more calm.
As soon as a corner of the flower opens, a leaf appears. Relatively speaking, there is still a large part left. It is hard not to be tempted to take a gamble.
Others cannot see what is inside the jade, but he can see it clearly. Now it depends on how he can arouse the appetite of this group of people to a greater extent.
Seeing their eager eyes, Wang Xiao continued to swing his sword gracefully.
The petiole appeared along the lines, and then another leaf shaped like a mulberry leaf appeared.
Just now people were still suspecting that a leaf happened to fall off and was wrapped in the jade, but now someone is getting restless and can't sit still anymore.
Should we strike first or continue to wait and see?
You must know that the sooner you act, the lower the price can be.
However, these people were really patient and did not show any excessive enthusiasm.
Wang Xiao stopped and poured himself a cup of tea. Yang Shuan, Xia Qingling and Feng Tingjun also picked up their cups. They tacitly agreed not to ask through voice communication to prevent being interrupted and eavesdropped.
Finally, someone spoke calmly.
"Little brother, how about I buy it for 700,000? This way you can make at least 200,000."
Wang Xiao was very surprised, "Is it still possible?"
"Dear customer, there is indeed this rule." The woman serving him explained the rules to him in a timely manner.
"I heard your plan from the third floor."
Just as he finished speaking, a handsome man wearing a golden crown came over with the gait of a dragon and a tiger.
"Who is this?" Wang Xiao sent a message to Yang Shuan.
"He is the King of Kunding of the Southern Territory, Xia Fukui."
Not only him, but many people also came to the third floor, as if they were going to fill up the second floor.
Everyone knew his reputation and made way for him to go forward and take a look.
"Yes, this is the Nine-Leaf Divine Mulberry, and it appears to be well preserved. I wonder what your plans are, little brother?" Kunding King Xia Fukui said calmly without any airs.
Wang Xiao also remained calm, "I plan to continue cutting."
"it is good."
With just one word, Wang Xiao continued to cut towards the places where the blood was spreading out. Unfortunately, several places were empty.
"Well, are you still going to cut it?"
"cut!"
Wang Xiao cut it again, and the jade was reduced to half its size. Once again, a green leaf broke away from the jade.
People's hearts were pounding. If three leaves appeared on one half of the tree, and if the other half also had three leaves, then buying it would guarantee that they would be able to cultivate an extraordinary offspring.
"I'll offer 1.5 million, what do you think?" Xia Fukui was very direct and interrupted him.
"Three leaves are not worth much. If the other half has nothing, then one million and a half will be wasted."
"Why don't you sell it? One million and five hundred thousand is already a huge profit." Yang Shuan whispered to the person to prevent being intercepted.
"Let me earn more. I have brothers to support." Wang Xiao shook his head slightly.
Opening jade is gambling, and Wang Xiao is setting up a gambling game in the casino.
One is the blind bet where you can’t see anything, and the other is the blind bet where you can see part of it to entice you to place a bet. Which one will you choose?
"Sorry, senior, I want to try again."
This time he moved much faster. He cut the part in half again, and two more green leaves appeared.
"hiss!"
The people in the garden were shocked and took a deep breath. This young man was so decisive!
“It’s great to be young. You have courage and determination.”
Of course, there is admiration as well as jealousy.
There are five pieces now. If I sell another piece for the remaining space, the price will have to double or triple.
"I'll offer three million!" someone started bidding.
"Three million and two million!"
"I offer three and a half million! Who else is bidding?" Someone recognized that the speaker was a high-ranking official who had a beloved grandson. He was willing to spend all his money on his grandson's coffin.
"Four million." Xia Fukui said with a smile, "Little brother, what do you think of this price? Even if we cut out another leaf from the remaining space, the price won't exceed this."
Wang Xiao felt a little guilty, because he knew there was nothing left. He calmed down and said, "Thank you, senior. I will sell it to you."
Xia Fukui handed over a storage bag full of spirit stones, then took the jade, and with a shake of spiritual energy, the remaining quarter was empty.
The garden suddenly fell silent, so quiet that it was eerie. Everyone wanted to see how he would react.
And he still smiled and said: "It's okay, just think of it as making friends."
"Did I hear correctly? King Kunding said he wanted to make friends with him?"
Everyone looked at him with envy.
When there was no one around, Yang Shuan gave him a thumbs up and said admiringly, "King Kunding, you dare to cheat."
"Isn't it impossible? I have old people above me and young children below me!"
Fortunately, Feng Tingjun didn’t know what he said, otherwise she would have been angry with him, asking who was your junior.
Yang Shuan and Xia Qingling caught up with Xia Fukui, and Wang Xiao followed behind.
"Hello, King Kunding."
"Qingling meets Uncle Wang!"
"So it's Princess Qingling and the boy from the Yang family. I held you in my arms when you were little." Fu Kui's eyes moved slightly. "Is he your friend?"
Yang Shuan's face turned red. "The King of Heaven is joking. He is indeed our friend, named Overlord. This time I brought them to stroll around Fushe Old Street, and by the way, we went to Bijin Garden to try our luck."
"Junior Overlord, I meet the Heavenly King."
Xia Fukui looked at him carefully, but seemed not to notice any change in his appearance.
"Not bad, he's a good material. Especially his mentality, he controlled it very well just now."
“Hehe, Your Majesty, you are too kind. I usually have good luck, so I thought of taking a gamble.” Wang Xiao felt a little embarrassed.
"I know that you came to say hello to me secondary, the main reason is for him. Do I look like such a narrow-minded person?" Xia Fukui looked at them and smiled heartily.
"Uncle Wang, what are you talking about? In my heart, you have always been a broad-minded and amiable elder."
"Yes, I just want to come and admire your heroism."
"Okay, go have fun. I will be leaving after staying in this imperial city for two days."
"Go slowly, my king."
Yang Shuan didn't ask any more questions, but turned around to discuss their plan to make money, which was very different from his serious look just now.
Pan Chengfeng narrowed his eyes, lowered his head to sip his tea, and muttered to himself, "Interesting."
