Chapter 63: Heavenly Treasure Trading Company (3)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The shopkeeper was originally talking with Xue Fanxin when he was suddenly interrupted by a voice. He was a little displeased, but businessmen generally valued harmony. Even if he was irritated, he would not immediately turn hostile. Instead, he greeted her with a smile, “So it’s the Third Young Master of the Imperial Preceptor’s Estate. I wonder what the Third Young Master meant by those words just now?”
The Third Young Master of the Imperial Preceptor’s Estate was called Yan Jinlu. He was an out-and-out hedonistic son. He had ordinary talent, was lazy, greedy, and lustful. In short, he had an extremely bad reputation. Because he had a father who was the Imperial Preceptor, he had been lawless and bullied others since he was young.
Yan Jinlu walked into the store and didn’t even look at Xue Fanxin by the side. He said arrogantly, “Shopkeeper Qian, did you receive any spirit medicine of unknown origins today? The Heavenly Treasure Trading Company should be very well-informed. You must have known when the spirit medicine in the Hundred Herb Hall was stolen. If someone is selling the spirit medicine in the Hundred Herb Hall, Shopkeeper Qian is a smart person and should know what to do.”
“Third Young Master, I naturally know what to do about this kind of thing. It’s just that I didn’t receive any spirit medicine of unknown origins today. As for this Spirit Awakening Potion, as far as I know, it’s not something your Hundred Herb Hall can create, so this is definitely not something your Hundred Herb Hall can obtain.” Although Shopkeeper Qian spoke to Yan Jinlu politely, he did not lower his attitude at all. Clearly, he was only patronizing Yan Jinlu.
“Hmph, naturally, a treasure like the Spirit Awakening Potion is not something our Hundred Herb Hall can create. That’s why I reminded Manager Qian to take a closer look and not be deceived. For something like the Spirit Awakening Potion, if it isn’t a fake, only an idiot would sell it here.”
Xue Fanxin clearly heard Yan Jinlu’s words from the side and started thinking about it seriously. One could guess that the Spirit Awakening Potion was very valuable, so much so that no one was willing to trade it for ordinary money.
Cultivation resources were not something that ordinary treasures could be traded for. Therefore, although many cultivators had talent, because of the limited resources, they did not have many achievements. Unless they were born in a relatively good family and were valued, it was very difficult to stand out with just individual cultivation.
“Shopkeeper Qian, I can guarantee with my life that this is definitely the Spirit Awakening Potion. If you’re unwilling to accept it, I’ll take it to another place to sell it.” Xue Fanxin reached out and pretended to take the Spirit Awakening Potion back.
However, Shopkeeper Qian protected it tightly. “Miss, don’t be anxious. When did I say that this Spirit Awakening Potion was fake? Although the Spirit Awakening Potion is very rare, I have seen it before. This is indeed the real deal. As for the price, you can give me a number. I will definitely try my best to fulfill your requirements.”
“Two million taels of gold, plus one condition.”
“There’s no problem with the gold, but the condition…” Shopkeeper Qian was clearly worried that Xue Fanxin would raise too harsh a condition, so he was in a difficult position.
Xue Fanxin did not have any doubts and said straightforwardly, “The condition is that this bottle of Spirit Awakening Potion must not be sold to the Imperial Preceptor’s Estate.”
Yan Jinlu was still standing by the side. When he heard Shopkeeper Qian say that it was really the Spirit Awakening Potion, he wanted to go back and report it to his family so that they could buy it. Who knew that the woman beside him would say that she wouldn’t sell it to the Imperial Preceptor’s Estate? This made him very angry.
“Stupid girl, what did you say? How dare you not sell it to our Imperial Preceptor’s Estate? Let me tell you, you can only sell this bottle of Spirit Awakening Potion to the Imperial Preceptor’s Estate.. Otherwise, don’t even think about selling it.”
