The others also looked surprised, especially Hu Yi, who had flipped through Kaede's backpack. There were only a few bottles of water and a few bags of dried meat in his backpack. Where did he put the one-foot-long lobster with its shell and plate?
Lobster, abalone ginseng, shark's fin, bear's paw, braised lion's head, and egg custard. Kaede Poisonous Island quickly placed more than ten dishes on the ground. Each dish was steaming hot as if it had just been cooked. Finally, he placed a fruit basket.
"This is how Xiao Ye and Chu Jian's worldview was shattered!" Kaede Poisonous Island said.”
"Brother Xuan's worldview has also been smashed into powder!”
"Forget about the three views. Brother Xuan, I'm completely broken. I actually tasted it!”
When had Wang Xuan ever seen such a large pile of top-notch food placed in front of him? He immediately started wolfing down the food.
"No wonder Brother Ye wasn't around when you were eating, so there's such delicious food!”
Wang Xuan had a satisfied look on his face. He no longer believed that Kaede Poisonous Island was a grave robber. To be able to casually put out so many delicacies, which stupid thing would become a grave robber?!
"Brother Ye, how could your backpack hold so many things? Why didn't I notice anything before?”Hu Yi sat next to Kaede Poisonous Island with a dumbfounded expression. He did not find anything unusual when he took water from his backpack during the day, and he did not find anything unusual when he rummaged through his backpack when Kaede Poisonous Island was not around.
"This is my personal secret. You just need to know that my backpack recognizes people. No one else can take these things out except me!”Kaede Poisonous Island didn't tell the truth. This backpack was just an ordinary backpack, but he didn't say anything wrong.
"Oh, I understand!" Hu Yi guessed that Kaede Poisonous Island was hiding something, but he shouldn't have said such a secret, so he didn't ask further.
"Brother Ye, you must be an alien, right? This backpack is alien technology!" Sadipeng's eyes lit up. The backpack of Kaede Poisonous Island was obviously not something that could be made on the Blue Planet. Only the aliens that he had always been determined to make could make it.
"Hehe, Xiao Sa, if you want to find aliens, you should be an astronomer!”Kaede Poisonous Island rolled his eyes at Sa Dipeng. He was only a person from another world, not an alien. Moreover, he was a person from another world who lived on Planet Blue.
Kaede Poisonous Island was chatting with Hu Yi and the others. He couldn't help but notice Yang Li. Her expression was too calm and she was very wary of him, as if he was a bad person. She was very nervous and looked like she was enjoying the food with the crowd, but in fact, she kept everything that was about to reach her mouth into her sleeve.
Kaede Poisonous Island felt that Yang Li definitely had some secret that she was hiding from everyone who was traveling with her. Now, his move had threatened her secret.
However, everyone had their secrets. Kaede Poisonous Island soon stopped paying attention to Yang Li and turned the topic to Hu Yi.
"Speaking of which, Old Hu, I heard from Chu Jian that your family has a secret technique book. Can you teach me or give me a handwritten copy? I can pay for the tuition!”
" Uh," Hu Yi was a little surprised." Brother Ye, why do you want to learn this?”
In fact, Hu Yi was just a beginner. If he hadn't been forced by his family, he wouldn't have memorized it. Now, although he hadn't forgotten everything, he only remembered a small part of it.
"It's very simple. It can help me find a good place with good Feng Shui. Those places are not only good places to build tombs, but also ideal environments for the growth of natural treasures. The chances of finding natural treasures such as thousand-year-old ginseng and ten-thousand-year-old Lingzhi are higher in those places!”Kaede Poisonous Island didn't hide his intentions at all. The reason he learned Feng Shui was to find a treasure land, but it wasn't a treasure land in this world.
Hu Yi really believed Kaede's words. He did not believe it before, but now he did. Indeed, things like thousand-year-old ginseng had a higher chance of growing in a good place. Otherwise, how could it be called a good place, although he could not verify it.
"Brother Ye, I can't promise you this for the time being. I'll have to go back and ask my old man first.”Hu Yi did not agree immediately. Firstly, the secret technique was passed down from generation to generation. How could it be casually leaked out? No matter what, he had to report it to his grandfather. Secondly, it was also because he was not proficient in his own skills and could not mislead others.
"Alright, that's not a problem." Kaede Poisonous Island didn't ask for the secret technique immediately.
"I'll go with you. When we get out of the desert, I'll go to your house to see your old man. But tell me, how much should I pay for the tuition?”
"Is one ton of gold enough?"
Pfft, he spat out the food in his mouth. Was gold worth tons?
Hu Yi's eyes widened as he looked at Kaede in disbelief. He had just heard a ton of gold, right?
"One ton isn't enough, is ten tons enough?”
Kaede Poisonous Island didn't think that the gold was that valuable, so he added another strong dose of medicine.
"You can estimate the price. I can at most take out 53 tons of gold. If your old man doesn't want money, you can only try to use those things to move him. It's just that it's a little troublesome to prepare those things!”
Anything that could be done with money was nothing. Kaede Poisonous Island didn't think that anyone would be able to hold onto their principles in front of the tuition fee of 50 tons of gold, especially when they didn't want him to do anything outrageous.
Of course, there were also stubborn old men who treated money like dirt, which was why Kaede Poisonous Island had prepared a backup plan.
"Wait, wait, let me slow down.”Hu Yi clutched his chest. His heart was very stifled.
The current price of gold in this world was 50 RMB per gram, so a ton of 1,000 kilograms was equivalent to one million grams, which was worth 50 million RMB. 53 tons of gold was worth 2.65 billion RMB.
Hu Yi wanted to agree immediately because he knew that his old master didn't know if this secret technique had been leaked. He remembered that this book had been taken out as a private school textbook when he was young. Wang Xuan had also learned it at that time, but he had forgotten all about it. After all, the things on it were too difficult to pronounce. Only Hu Yi was required to memorize it because it was something passed down from his ancestors. The impression was so deep that he could still remember a small part of it.
"Enough, this is definitely enough. When the time comes, the old man will definitely pass it on to you.”Hu Yi's voice was trembling. Why was there such a big difference between people? Kaede Poisonous Island could casually say 50 tons of gold, but he had to risk his life to enter the desert to find Jingjue Ancient City for tens of thousands of US dollars (assuming that the exchange ratio between RMB and US dollars was 1:10 at that time).
"Besides, you definitely won't need that much. The old man won't cheat you. At most, you'll get a few yuan for the printing fee!”
Hu Yi's family had a very good family tradition. Honesty and trustworthiness were the basic principles. In addition, the secret technique did not care if it was learned by outsiders, so Hu Yi was sure that his old man would not accept a few yuan. It was even possible that he would give it away for free.
"In that case, I can rest assured. It's good that we can get that secret technique.”Kaede Poisonous Island heaved a sigh of relief and had a better impression of Hu Yi. To be able to keep his heart in front of so much money, his character was definitely not to be underestimated.
These words were very hateful!
"Brother Ye, shouldn't you be concerned about not spending money in vain?”Wang Xuan asked with a strange expression.
"Wronged money? No, Xuan Zi, you don't understand!" Kaede Poisonous Island put his arm around Wang Xuan's shoulder and said firmly," To others, the secret technique isn't worth 53 tons of gold, but to me, it's a huge profit to be able to exchange it for 53 tons or even 100 times the amount of gold. It's just that I only have this little gold in my hands for the time being. In another four to five months, I'm willing to exchange it for at least 200 tons of gold.”
" Uh." Wang Xuan couldn't catch his breath, and his eyes rolled back as he fell backward.
Kaede Poisonous Island supported Wang Xuan. Wang Xuan grabbed his hand tightly and said weakly," Brother Ye, you're an alien. So the gold you're talking about is not the same thing as the gold we're talking about, right?"”
"Do you want to take a look?"
"Yes, take it out and take a look. It's definitely not the same thing!”Wang Xuan said through gritted teeth.
Kaede Poisonous Island reached into his backpack and took out a ten-kilogram gold brick and placed it in Wang Xuan's hand.
"Old Hu, come over and take a look. Is this really gold?”Feeling the heavy weight in his hand, Wang Xuan was unwilling to believe it. Moreover, he really didn't know how to distinguish the authenticity of the gold.
Hu Yi and the others surrounded him, even though they did not know how to differentiate them.
Its weight and appearance looked like real gold, and it was not afraid of water and fire. The laymen were more and more convinced that it was real gold.
"Do you believe me now?"
Everyone nodded and shook their heads collectively. They were skeptical. After all, gold was a rare item. In terms of grams, it would be strange if such a large gold brick was not suspected.
"It's fine if you don't believe me. Anyway, when the time comes, we'll find an expert to appraise it.”Kaede Poisonous Island continued to eat his supper. He couldn't waste it when it was getting cold.
"Hurry up and eat. After you finish eating, we'll go find that Ancient City of Jingjue tomorrow. Then, I'll learn the secret technique as soon as possible.”
After Kaede Poisonous Island said that, everyone stopped looking at the gold brick. The food on the plate was too delicious to be wasted.
Even Wang Xuan, who wanted to make a fortune the most, stuffed the gold bricks into Kaede Poisonous Island's backpack. It was true that he wanted to make a fortune, but he was also a person with principles. He would never commit crimes. Otherwise, he would not have become Hu Yi's best friend.
However, Wang Xuan really wanted to shout,"Tycoon, do you need a leg pendant?”
Under Kaede's supervision, the group of people quickly wiped out the food on the ground. As for the plates, they were cleaned with sand and put away.
