"Hey young man, I came in a hurry and didn't bring any spirit pearls with me. Could you tell me if I could buy one with money? Name your price."
He Yi only wants to buy a spirit pearl and then return home.
As for some extraordinary world, forget it, that's not something a wage slave like him, who's still worrying about rent and car payments, can even think about.
But can he really accept that?
He Yi heard Yin Liu's reply: "The current market price for a spirit pearl is 100,000 each."
Very well, goodbye!
He Yi had only been working for a few years when he used all the money he had saved to buy a car and even took out a car loan.
With car loan payments, gas money, rent, utilities, and daily expenses added up, he squandered almost his entire month's salary.
He currently has only 10,000 yuan in savings.
This covers his expenses for the past month; he has to hold on until he gets paid next month.
He originally thought that even if this spirit pearl was very precious, it would only cost a few thousand yuan.
He was surprised to find the price was much higher than he expected.
One hundred thousand per pill?
Even robbery wouldn't be this fast.
"Sorry to bother you."
He's too poor, goodbye!
He Yi was heartbroken. How could he go back?
By the way, it seems he swiped his card to get on the bus. Is it possible that if he waits for that bus, he can also swipe his card to get on?
Can I take that bus back?
There's no reason why I can come here but not go back.
But when he tried to leave Guxi Town, the fog seemed to have a mind of its own, and wouldn't let him out no matter what.
He would always end up walking back to Guxi Town.
He anxiously checked the time.
It's past 2 PM now.
This should be his sleep time. What if he doesn't get enough sleep and can't get up for work tomorrow?
No, given his current condition, is it really possible for him to go back to work?
He Yi was almost convinced of his own corporate slave mentality, but if he didn't work, where would he get the money to pay his rent and car loan?
Having no other choice, He Yi went to find that young man again.
"Excuse me, sir, please wait..."
He Yi ran around for a while before finally finding Yin Liu at a stall.
Yin Liu glanced at him again.
"follow me."
Yin Liu beckoned him with her finger, leading him to a secluded spot.
"Don't you have a magical artifact with spiritual energy on you?"
"Sell it; you might get a lot of spirit pearls in return."
He Yi was dumbfounded. A magical artifact?
Does he possess a magical artifact?
impossible?
He immediately searched his person: phone, no; watch, probably no; cufflinks, no; then it could only be…
He tugged at the red string around his neck, pulling out a black pendant.
This is a plaque made of black jade, symbolizing peace and tranquility.
It was left to him by his grandmother; it was said to be an old item passed down from his ancestors.
"Could it be this?"
"Yes."
"This is a decent defensive magical artifact, and it's priced at around ten thousand spirit pearls."
"If it were auctioned, it might fetch around 50,000."
One spirit pearl is worth 100,000 yuan, so 50,000 spirit pearls would be 5 billion yuan.
Even if this "nothing to worry about" plaque is made of the finest black jade and is an antique, its value is limited. Selling it for a few million would be considered very good.
I never expected that coming to this ancient town would increase its price by thousands of times?
He Yi was immediately smitten.
