Jade Capital City, Pan Jia Yuan.
People of all shapes and sizes walked up and down the streets.
There were also many antique dealers who were setting up stalls and shouting non-stop.
An ancient-looking attic was located in the innermost part of Panjiayuan Antique Street.
A plaque with the words 'Treasure Trove Pavilion' written on it in a flamboyant manner.
Treasure Trove Pavilion was Chen Cang's family business.
At this moment, a fat man wearing a washed white jacket and wide-legged jeans walked in.
Fatty sneakily looked around. After making sure that no one was paying attention to him, he coughed and walked into Treasure Trove Pavilion.
"Ahem, shopkeeper, do you accept things here?”
Chen Cang sat at the innermost corner, playing with a jade Buddha. When he saw Fatty, he was stunned for a moment.
Then, the corners of his mouth curled up into a smile. He did not expect Fatty to take the initiative to come to him.
"Of course, please come in. Let's talk over tea!”Chen Cang warmly greeted Fatty and personally brewed a pot of tea for him.
Fatty looked around and sat down awkwardly.
This place was really too big. Compared to his broken courtyard, it was simply a world of difference.
"Sir, do you have anything you want to sell to Treasure Trove Pavilion?”
Fatty didn't answer. Instead, he asked warily,"You're Treasure Trove Pavilion's shopkeeper?"
Chen Cang smiled and nodded," That's right, I'm Treasure Trove Pavilion's shopkeeper. This lord, don't worry, if you have any treasures, just take them out. Our Treasure Trove Pavilion will definitely give you the most suitable price!"”
Seeing Chen Cang become Treasure Trove Pavilion's shopkeeper at such a young age, wearing expensive clothes and even wearing a jade Buddha around his neck, Fatty's heart was sour as he muttered to himself.
"Damn capitalists…"
However, Fatty did not forget his purpose for coming. He took out a piece of jade from his neck.
"Shopkeeper, this is a treasure passed down from Lord Fatty's ancestors. How much is it worth?”
The moment Chen Cang saw this piece of jade, his eyes lit up.
The jade was round, and there was an eye carved in the middle. The surroundings were densely covered with Ghost Cave characters.
Chen Cang, who had received the system's reward of being proficient in the Ghost Cave Language, immediately understood what this meant.
It meant that she wanted to publicize the supreme status of the Queen of Jingjue and the mystery of the eye totem. Everyone had to follow the will of God...
In short, the Ghost Cave characters on this piece of jade were just some mysterious words. There was no meaningful information.
"Ding! A treasure with dragon energy has been found. Do you want to absorb it?”
Chen Cang was not surprised. After all, this was the key to opening the Ancient City of Jingjue. It was located on a dragon vein. After years of edification, it naturally carried dragon energy.
"Ding!? Dragon Energy absorption completed, 156 evolution points obtained!”
Chen Cang was shocked. Previously, the system had absorbed all the antiques with dragon energy in his house. There were a total of more than ten pieces.
However, he only obtained 102 points of Dragon Energy in the end.
As for this jade pendant, he had obtained 156 points.
As expected, the closer the treasure was to the dragon vein, the higher the dragon energy it contained.
"How is it? How much is it worth?" Fatty asked expectantly.
Chen Cang muttered to himself for a moment, thinking about whether he should take Fatty's jade.
This piece of jade actually only had the function of a key.
The dragon energy on its body had been completely absorbed by Chen Cang. However, this was something from 2,000 years ago, so it was indeed worth some money…
"Sigh, forget it. Fatty still wants to use this piece of jade to enter the archaeological team. He and Hu Bayi are the main characters of the tomb raiding world. It's best not to change their fate.”
When Fatty saw Chen Cang's silent appearance, he immediately became anxious.
"Hey, shopkeeper, what do you mean by not saying anything? Could it be that he saw that this piece of jade was very valuable and wanted to scam Master Fatty's treasure? Let me tell you, I've already asked someone. This piece of jade is worth at least three thousand yuan…"
Seeing Fatty's appearance, Chen Cang could not help but feel a little amused in his heart.
"Sir, don't worry, our Treasure Trove Pavilion is an old brand, we won't cheat your jade.”
"Then hurry up and tell me, how much is this piece of jade worth?”
Chen Cang smiled and poured a cup of tea for Fatty." Fatty, don't be anxious. Let's talk slowly."”
"Lord Fatty, are you in need of money now?”
"Shopkeeper, what do you mean? You want to inquire about me and then lower the price of the jade pendant?”Fatty frowned.
"How could that be?" Chen Cang could not help but laugh." I just wanted to chat with Lord Fatty. Forgive me for being blunt, but Lord Fatty, this piece of jade of yours should have been obtained from the desert, right?”
"How did you know?" Fatty was shocked.
He had never told anyone about the origin of this piece of jade.
He didn't expect the shopkeeper to be able to tell its origin.
"The words on this jade pendant are carved in the Ghost Cave language. This kind of language only appeared in the Jingjue Country of the Western Regions during the Western Han Dynasty!”
"What is it? Are you saying that this piece of jade is the treasure of the Western Han Dynasty?”Fatty's eyes lit up.
"That's right!" Chen Cang nodded.
"Then wouldn't this piece of jade of mine be worth an old nose's money?”
"It is indeed worth some money."
"Shopkeeper, hurry up and pay up!" Fatty said happily.
"Lord Fatty, don't be anxious." "This jade pendant is indeed quite valuable, but it should be left to you by your father, right?" Chen Cang said with a smile.”
Hearing this, Fatty's smile froze.
That's right, this was indeed the only thing his father left him.
If he wasn't in urgent need of money to entertain his retired brother, Hu Bayi, why would he sell this piece of jade?
"Lord Fatty must have met with an urgent need for money, but this jade is after all a memento left behind by your father. How about this, I'll give you a choice. I'll give you 3,000 yuan, and you'll temporarily put this jade with me and sign a contract.”
Chen Cang continued," Since when did Lord Fatty become rich? As long as I bring the money over, I can redeem this jade pendant at any time. You don't have to worry that I won't admit it. My Treasure Trove Pavilion has such a big reputation, so there's no need to lose my reputation for three thousand yuan."”
"Or you can choose the second option. Sell this piece of jade to me directly and I'll give you 10,000 yuan in one go. What do you think?”
Fatty hesitated for a moment before gritting his teeth.""You really won't lie to me?"
"Lord Fatty, don't worry, my Treasure Trove Pavilion is right here. If you feel that I lied to you, you can come and smash my signboard at any time!”
Fatty thought for a moment. True, Treasure Trove Pavilion had such a big signboard, there was no need to lie to him for a piece of jade.
As the saying goes, it's better to provoke the King of Hell than the little devil!
If Treasure Trove Pavilion lied to him, he would go all out to smash their signboard!
"Alright, I'll leave this jade with you for the time being. When I have money, I'll redeem it.”
Chen Cang smiled and extended his hand." Master Fatty, happy working with you!”
"In the future, if you have any antiques or treasures, feel free to bring them to me. I'll definitely give you a fair price…"
