He thought that Lin Dong had his eyes on the bronze jue in the box.
He thought that this kid had good eyesight!
He had just gotten it and he already had his eyes on it. As expected of the fourth generation of the Red Army, he knew what was good!
Unexpectedly, Lin Dong shook his head and said, "I don't want what's inside, I just want the wooden box on the outside. Let me make this clear, this wooden box can at most be exchanged for half a catty of tea leaves. If you can, then trade. If not, then forget it! "
Half a catty of tea leaves.
Twenty thousand grams.
Wouldn't that be five million?
This wooden box that was used to store antiques was worth five million?
Lu Guoqiang felt as if he had been hit on the head with a stick. He felt extremely dizzy. Wasn't this the legendary selling the casket and returning the pearls? He was afraid that he had heard wrongly and was even more afraid that the other party would misunderstand and regret after falling for it. He hurriedly explained, "This box is made of red sandalwood. It may be worth some money but it is not an antique. Even if it is an antique, it is not worth half a catty of top-grade tea leaves. Are you mistaken …"
Hearing the conversation between the two, the eyes of the young lady and the old man widened.
They looked at Lin Dong.
It was as if they had seen a fool.
Only the young lady of the shop, Yun You You, was not. Her face revealed a thoughtful expression. Suddenly, a light flashed in her eyes. She seemed to have understood something and was secretly happy. However, she had a good upbringing and maintained her composure. She quietly observed the development of the situation.
Lin Dong turned back to look at her and smiled at her.
This girl didn't expose him. She was indeed a good girl, right?
In response to Lu Guoqiang's worry, Lin Dong waved his hand and said, "Don't worry about me. This box may be worthless to you, but it is worth it if you give it to me."
Lu Guoqiang heard this.
He felt as if a hundred thousand horses were galloping in his heart.
Was there a need to slap his face in public? What you said put a lot of pressure on his IQ! Lu Guoqiang's face was already red and now it was even redder. However, he was a man after all. He quickly calmed down and took the box from the coffee table. He first looked at it over and over again, but he really couldn't find anything suspicious. In the end, he could only confirm that his eyesight was not good enough. He gloomily handed the box to Lin Dong and said, "This box is for you. I, Lu Guoqiang, hereby declare that no matter what kind of treasure this box is, it belongs to you now."
Lin Dong smiled and opened the wooden box. He took out the bronze statue and handed it back to Lu Guoqiang.
"Wait, can you …" Lu Guoqiang was a little embarrassed. "You see, my curiosity is about to explode. Can you tell me what treasure is hidden inside? You're willing to pay five million! "
"There should be a hidden compartment in the box!" Qianjun reacted quickly and immediately thought of the possibility of hidden treasures.
"How is that possible? It's made of pure wood. It's solid inside." It wasn't that Lu Guoqiang hadn't thought of this reason.
"You want to know?" Lin Dong asked.
His eyes were looking at the shop owner, Yun You You.
Yun You You smiled and didn't reply. However, Lin Dong guessed that she had guessed it. At least, her guess was very close to the truth. Otherwise, she wouldn't have such confidence.
Not to mention Lu Guoqiang, even the old man who was enjoying his tea put down his cup and looked over curiously. Qianjun, on the other hand, paid special attention to Lin Dong's hands. It was as if she wanted to use her sharp eyes to find clues first.
Lin Dong raised the box.
He threw it on the ground.
He threw it hard.
Lu Guoqiang's brain short-circuited again. He threw it on the ground just like that? Five million was thrown on the ground just like that!
Originally, he thought that his intelligence was still okay. Although his martial arts wasn't the best, his business was the biggest. Others would give him a thumbs up and praise him for his intelligence. But now, why didn't he have enough brain juice? This box was made of pure wood. He had checked it more than ten times. How could there be a hidden compartment? If there was a hidden compartment, wouldn't the item in the compartment fall? Even if there was a hidden compartment in the box, why did he have to throw it on the ground?
Dizzy!
Very dizzy!
Lu Guoqiang felt that he was in a mess now. He had to sort it out.
"The box actually broke …" Qianjun had a strange expression. How could a box made of pure wood break? She didn't use much strength. With the hardness of the red sandalwood, how could it break?
The wooden box that fell on the ground not only broke, but it was also broken into pieces.
The old man who had a long internal breath felt his vision blur. It was as if there was a cloud of black smoke rising.
It also seemed like dust.
It disappeared quickly.
He didn't see it clearly and he wasn't sure.
Yun You You, the shop owner, who was watching quietly at the side, smiled when Lin Dong looked at her. She was the only one present who could see the truth.
With this, she suddenly had more expectations for Lin Dong. Maybe the adventure in a month's time would be a success.
She nodded at Lin Dong.
She smiled and didn't say anything.
Lin Dong smiled back at her. Then, he casually picked up a small piece that wasn't much bigger than a grain of rice from the wooden pieces.
The color was no different from the other pieces. The only special thing was that it was round like a pearl.
If he held it in his hand.
He wouldn't be able to tell that it was different.
The old man, Qianjun and the red-faced man Lu Guoqiang all widened their eyes. Could it be that the treasure worth five million was referring to this? What kind of treasure was it? How could it be worth five million? Moreover, how did it hide in the red sandalwood box? Also, this brat had just entered the door not long ago. He didn't even look over. How did he know that there was a treasure in the box? Countless questions troubled the three of them. Unfortunately, the answers were destined to be unsolvable.
"Pearl of Discord." The shop owner, Yun You You, sighed slightly. "I didn't expect that the red sandalwood could block the energy ripples of the Pearl of Discord. The design is too ingenious!"
"Pearl of Discord?" Lu Guoqiang and the rest were still confused. What was the Pearl of Discord?
"How did you know that there was this pearl inside?" Qianjun grasped the key point and asked.
"This box was obtained by a friend of mine from a group of grave robbers. There were originally four boxes, but I don't know how, but this box ended up outside." Lin Dong naturally wouldn't tell the truth. He could sense that this was actually a funerary item from an ancient tomb from the aura of death on the box. Therefore, he made up a lie and said that he had seen it at a friend's place to conceal his "Wisdom Eyes" that could identify rare treasures. This was indeed a funerary item. However, Lin Dong still couldn't figure out the deeper meaning of why the original owner sealed it in the red sandalwood box. He had to remove the seal of the Pearl of Discord to find out.
"Yes, I got this box from a thief. At that time, he was being chased by me and left this box behind. I'm sure that the thief got it from your friend's house." Lu Guoqiang slapped his thigh after listening to him. He actually believed him completely.
"That's more or less the case …" Lin Dong nodded cooperatively.
"Liar!" Qianjun didn't have the Sound Insight Technique.
However, she was good at capturing other people's micro-expressions. She knew that Lin Dong was talking nonsense the moment she saw his smug look.
Fortunately, Lu Guoqiang was a yellow guy. One of them was willing to fight, while the other was willing to suffer. She didn't want to meddle in other people's business. Therefore, she just watched the show with Yun You You. The old man frowned. He looked at Lin Dong and then looked at Lu Guoqiang. He sighed slightly. He didn't want to care about these confusing things. He picked up his teacup and continued to immerse himself in his tea ceremony.
"I didn't know that this belonged to your friend …" Lu Guoqiang was a little embarrassed at this moment. There was an inexplicable uneasiness in his heart.
"It's okay. This is fate." Lin Dong smiled slightly.
"Yes, yes, yes. This is fate. I, Lu Guoqiang, don't have this fate. It's a waste to leave this treasure with an illiterate uncouth man like me. It's good that it belongs to you now. Speaking of which, I asked someone to appraise it today. Those experts even said that this thing is a modern imitation and not an antique. It's not worth much at all. There was a guy who was bold enough to ask me to transfer it to him for five thousand yuan. He's really a big liar! Fortunately, I wasn't cheated by him. Otherwise, I would have smashed that stupid shop of his! " Lu Guoqiang vented his emotions agitatedly. When he calmed down, he said with a slightly trembling voice, "Student Lin, about the tea leaves …"
"Give me a week. I'll bring the tea leaves here next Friday." Lin Dong had a great harvest and was in an extremely good mood. He didn't care about the tea leaves anymore. In his eyes, a hundred tons of tea leaves weren't even worth one ten-thousandth of this Discord Pearl.
The Discord Pearl was useless to ordinary people, but it was a great treasure to cultivators.
Didn't he see that Sister You You, whose heart was as calm as still water, was also envious?
Half a catty of tea leaves could be exchanged for it.
Worth it!
"Do you have any other good things? I can still get a few 'Vitality Pills'. This can also be exchanged! " Lin Dong decided to throw out another trump card. In any case, he had decided to go back to his hometown to collect tea leaves to refine spirit tea. He might as well collect some mountain herbs to refine some pills.
