Chapter 126: Chapter 126: Top-Level Old Jade
"Let me tell you, don’t underestimate this item. It’s a top-notch treasure, a porcelain piece from the Ming Dynasty. Being able to appreciate it shows you have an eye for it, you’re an expert."
"Originally, I planned to sell this for a million, but seeing that you’re an expert, I’ll sell it to you for six hundred and sixty thousand, just as a gesture of friendship. What do you think?"
Judging by the bragging manner, if Ye Feng wasn’t truly knowledgeable or didn’t know that this thing was only worth over ten thousand, he might have believed it.
Indeed, the people here rely solely on their words to make a living.
"Can’t afford to provoke... Goodbye..." Ye Feng quickly put down the item and ran off.
These guys are too shady, treating people like fools to slaughter.
"Don’t leave! If the price doesn’t work, we can discuss it further, what do you say?" The stall owner quickly called out to Ye Feng when he saw him leaving.
But, Ye Feng pulled Liu Xue away without giving him the chance to continue.
Ye Feng was afraid he might provoke a beating...
"Alright! Another day wasted." Seeing Ye Feng running away so quickly, the stall owner shook his head helplessly.
"Why are you so greedy? Even for this junk, you dare ask for a million. Why don’t you aim for the sky instead?"
"Exactly... Be reasonable, you’re so greedy, nobody’s money grows on trees." Upon hearing his complaints, the neighboring stall owner teased with a smile.
"Get lost, stop talking about me here. At least my stuff is genuine; you guys who deceive people with fake items, what right do you have to criticize me." The stall owner scornfully retorted at the two.
...
Besides those selling antiques, there were also those selling jade here.
Especially one stall that sold little jade items which were particularly attractive to girls.
Rings, bracelets, hairpins, etc., were all there, and Liu Xue quickly started trying them on at the stall.
"Does it look good?" Wearing one of the jade hairpins, Liu Xue asked with a smile.
"Hmm! You look good in anything." Ye Feng nodded.
Although the jade hairpin didn’t really match Liu Xue’s hairstyle, with a different style, it would definitely look beautiful.
"Really?" Hearing Ye Feng’s praise, Liu Xue promptly asked, "How much is this jade hairpin?"
The stall owner was a woman, she glanced at the two and answered with a smile, "This is top quality jade, and the craftsmanship is exquisite. You two have a keen eye. This jade hairpin is priced at eight thousand eight."
Ye Feng took a look; the jade hairpin wasn’t worth that much, but elsewhere, it would at least cost four to five thousand. In this place, it’s fairly honest.
"Then let’s buy it." So, Ye Feng prepared to buy it without hesitation.
"It’s so expensive, don’t buy it." However, Liu Xue quickly put the jade hairpin down and dragged Ye Feng away.
"Why aren’t you buying it?" Ye Feng asked curiously.
"It’s too expensive, not worth it." Liu Xue shook her head.
In the upcoming section, they were all selling jade, and the quality of jade was quite decent, priced much more reasonably compared to antiques.
Just then, an excellent piece of ancient jade caught Ye Feng’s attention.
This was a top-grade Ancient Tianshuang Jade, and the key was its large size, which would be very effective for constructing a Spirit Gathering Array.
However, it was unclear if this piece of jade had been unveiled yet, or if its appearance had been tampered with, making it look quite ordinary.
Otherwise, a piece of top-grade Tianshuang Jade like this would cause a sensation.
You know, such a treasure would have been the top choice for the Emperor’s Jade Seal in ancient times.
Suppressing the excitement in his heart, Ye Feng picked it up and asked while examining it, "How much is this jade?"
"Hubby, you like it?" Seeing Ye Feng showing interest, Liu Xue promptly asked.
"A little!" Ye Feng nodded with a smile.
"I plan to sell this jade for a hundred thousand," the stall owner answered coldly, glancing at the two.
"This jade looks quite ordinary, why is it so expensive?" Liu Xue asked puzzled after hearing the stall owner’s words.
"A large piece of jade commands this price," the stall owner replied expressionlessly.
"Do you like it, hubby?" Although she didn’t quite understand, Liu Xue still asked.
"Yeah!" Ye Feng nodded.
Ye Feng remained calm, but inwardly, he was overjoyed.
"Then let’s buy it." Upon hearing Ye Feng liked it, Liu Xue immediately wanted to buy the jade.
Ye Feng was a bit baffled and quickly asked, "Why did you hesitate to buy the jade hairpin, but you’re willing to buy this piece of jade?"
Indeed, Liu Xue’s contrast was quite significant, wasn’t it?
"Hubby likes it, so no expense is too much." Liu Xue smiled and quickly paid to buy the jade.
Seeing this, Ye Feng was sincerely moved.
However, buying such a top-grade Ancient Tianshuang Jade for just one hundred thousand was truly striking gold.
With this piece of top-grade jade, Ye Feng could start planning the Spirit Gathering Array.
Of course, having only this one piece was far from enough.
This piece could only serve as the main material; four other jade pieces were needed for support to complete the Spirit Gathering Array.
Crucially, Ye Feng had found the most important item, the Spirit Storage Pearl, saving him a lot of trouble.
After the purchase, Ye Feng grabbed the item and prepared to leave.
However, at that moment, a noisy commotion came from ahead.
"What’s happening up front? Let’s go see." Hearing the commotion ahead, Liu Xue grabbed Ye Feng and prepared to check it out.
A group of people was gathered not far ahead, from which a series of noisy voices emanated.
As they approached, they discovered a yellow-haired youth leading a gang of thugs bullying a child around the age of ten.
The child was originally selling items, but the gang smashed the child’s belongings and cursed the child off.
"Don’t pay, yet you want to sell stuff here? Are you seeking death?"
"Brat, no money, get lost. If I see you again, I’ll break your legs."
"Seeing your look, you’re not convinced? Even if you’re not convinced, you better hold your peace..."
"Haha! Look at you, just a coward, go home and drink milk."
The youngster appeared around fourteen or fifteen, trying to make a living by selling items but ended up being bullied.
The child was initially defiant but was beaten badly, forced to huddle on the ground, protecting his vital parts.
Yet, even with this, no one stepped up to intervene.
"Sigh! How pitiful, these people even bully children."
"This lot has no humanity whatsoever."
"What can you do? They’re powerful, and we ordinary people dare not offend them."
Although they all felt sorry for the child, they lacked the courage to even speak up, fearing retribution from these people.
"Hubby!" Seeing this scene, Liu Xue called out to Ye Feng.
No need for Liu Xue to say, Ye Feng already knew what she wanted to express.
Besides, Ye Feng discovered a treasure on the child’s person...
