Xiang Qi was indeed the boss of Jade Street. Be it the store's layout or decoration, it was second to none here.
The luxurious store was filled with a dazzling array of items.
And the elegant etiquette of the salesgirl. Every detail showed the power of a tycoon. Unfortunately, as soon as Lin Dong entered, he felt a deeply hidden and eerie aura quietly spreading. It was clear that Xiang Qi was ominous and not a place to stay for long.
However, Lin Dong liked this kind of black-hearted boss who liked to play tricks in the dark to attract wealth.
Such people were the best to talk about friendship.
"The jade is average, but the carving is so-so." Lin Dong stood in the middle of the hall. The treasure of the store that the driver had mentioned was right in front of him.
This was a jade mountain. There were carvings of auspicious clouds, precious trees, immortal pines, flying cranes, and white deer. The most mysterious thing was that there was a group of graceful flying girls with all kinds of musical instruments in their hands. They were currently playing around and chasing each other. Their clothes fluttered in the wind. Their expressions were vivid and lifelike, as if they were about to break out of the stone and soar into the sky.
The exquisiteness of the carvings could not be described with words, nor could it be done by a master.
Not in the Cultivation World.
This level of skill was considered not bad in the blue planet.
"Good, it is indeed a good piece of jade. Lantian jade is so warm that it emits smoke in the sun. Coupled with this uncanny carving, I think even 250 million is worth it, let alone 150 million!" A chubby young man with slicked-back hair was shaking his head, as if he knew how to appreciate it.
"Uncanny carvings?" Lin Dong almost burst out laughing. Even if you want to show off, you can't go too far. Besides, there are no beauties here. Who are you going to show off?
The chubby guy glared at Lin Dong.
He was very unhappy. Although Lin Dong did not laugh out loud, he was sensitive enough to catch the mockery in his words. What made him feel the most uncomfortable was Lin Dong's height and appearance. Lin Dong was already a handsome guy before he transmigrated. In school, he belonged to the category of "tall, poor, and handsome", which was even rarer than wild Ultraman. The only difference between him and "tall, rich, and handsome" was the middle word. He was already extremely handsome to begin with. Coupled with the unparalleled temperament that he had cultivated in the cultivation world, the little fatty, who barely had the word "rich", was under a lot of pressure. At this moment, Little Fatty had an illusion that he was a donkey egg placed beside a beautiful piece of jade. There was an uncontrollable sense of inferiority in his heart.
This kind of inferiority was forcefully supported by the confidence brought by money, and it turned into pride and anger.
He always wanted to get rid of his opponent somewhere.
He was declaring his strength.
He definitely didn't dare to make a move. His only hope was that this brat would make the purchase, and then he would seize the opportunity to raise the price, compete at a high price, and thoroughly humiliate this opponent to vent his anger.
Fatty was dreaming, but unfortunately, Lin Dong didn't give him the chance to perform.
The auspicious unicorn was inauspicious, it was better to leave as soon as possible.
Of course, it was impossible for Lin Dong to enter a treasure mountain empty-handed.
"Since we're friends, then I won't stand on ceremony with you. Let's cut to the chase. I'm very poor now, it's not a problem for me to borrow a piece of jade, right? Alright, if you don't say anything, I'll take that as a yes. " Lin Dong first exchanged pleasantries with the boss of the auspicious unicorn, then he cupped his hands, expressing his sincere gratitude to this big boss who he didn't know but was willing to travel thousands of miles to help him in an emergency.
He put on the Strongman Ring that had been cultivated with the mysterious movement technique "Invisible Hand", then took out the "Cutting Jade Knife" that he had previously refined with telekinesis from the storage ring, and lightly slashed.
The jade mountain was undamaged on the outside, but the most essential part of its core instantly entered Lin Dong's storage ring.
The owner of the auspicious unicorn was a generous person.
He was also relatively wealthy.
Lin Dong liked this kind of friend, so the jade he took out was slightly bigger.
"Thank you, I love making friends." Lin Dong left contentedly, leaving the little fatty standing at the side dumbfounded.
In fact, he didn't see anything, he only felt that his eyes were blurred, but he could feel something unusual from Lin Dong's expression. He looked at Lin Dong's back in confusion, then at the jade mountain, and found that there was no change at all, the auspicious clouds were still there, and the flying sky was still the same, as if nothing had happened. But he was sure that this kid must have done something. He could tell by looking at the sly smile on his face.
Curiosity can really kill a cat sometimes!
The little fatty did not care that his combat power was trash, and at the same time possessed Sherlock Holmes and Conan, and instantly burst out with 007 confidence.
He quietly followed Lin Dong and walked into another jade shop. He found that the brat was muttering to himself in front of a Purple Golden Toad with a bead in its mouth. He waved his hand and then left with a smirk.
Damn it, this is too strange!
What the hell happened? Why is this kid smiling so lowly?
In another shop, the little fatty found that Lin Dong was doing this to a pure white jade cabbage with green edges. He suddenly had a kind of understanding, and his heartbeat sped up 300 times. He had the urge to call the police and arrest someone … thief, this kid must have stolen something, otherwise, he wouldn't be smiling so lowly!
The jade mountain was undamaged, and the golden toad was still there. Looking at the jade cabbage covered by bulletproof glass, the little fatty was discouraged.
He couldn't find any evidence!
He was sure that the other party had done something, but he couldn't find any flaws.
Even through the thick bulletproof glass, he could still do something? How did this kid do it? The little fatty felt that his head was about to explode, but he still couldn't figure it out!
"Huh?"
Lin Dong came to the end of the street and found a shop called "Leisure House". He felt that it was full of spiritual energy, far better than the few shops he had seen before. Even Xiang Qi, which was full of jade, couldn't compare. He was immediately very curious. Most importantly, the air here was as pure as a spring. In the noisy downtown, it was as strange as a Xiao Bai flower emerging from the ruins of a battlefield …
Pushing the door open, he found that this Leisure House was more like a boutique.
All kinds of decorations were very thoughtful.
Many handicrafts and unique designs, lace decorations, fully showed that the owner was a good girl with clever hands.
There weren't many jade, but there were a lot of antique vases, tea sets, and wood carvings. The lights in the shop were not as dazzling as Xiang Qi's. There were only a few small lights, and more of the natural light came from the facade and the window. The air conditioning in the room was very light. It wasn't as cold as a shopping mall. Instead, it was very comfortable. Coupled with the faint fragrance of tea, there was an indescribable refreshing coolness in this hot summer.
The owner of the shop was a girl wearing a snow-white long-sleeved dress with blue floral embroidery.
Her eyebrows were picturesque, and her temperament was out of this world.
Take a closer look:
Black hair dyed into a high bun, slanting phoenix hairpin;
Jade dots were beautiful, and Qionghua immortal guests were here.
Not to mention the Cultivation World, Lin Dong had never seen a girl with such spiritual Qi on this blue planet. The most surprising thing was that this girl looked somewhat similar to Fairy Piaomiao. At first glance, he really suspected that she was a fairy descending gracefully. Lin Dong couldn't help but be surprised.
"Welcome." The girl seemed to be used to the silly look when others first saw her. With a calm look, she elegantly put her hands on her waist and bowed slightly to show her welcome.
"Ah, be careful, this guy is a thief. Sister Youyou, you must be careful!" Little fatty rushed in hurriedly and blocked in front of Lin Dong with both hands, looking like a warrior who swore to protect the shop owner's girl with his life. His outrageous words not only surprised the girl, but also attracted the attention of the three people who were quietly drinking tea at the side of the shop. As for Lin Dong, who was being watched by others, he acted as if nothing had happened. Do you think I am still the same weak warrior who would blush, stutter, and get my heart pounding when I see a beauty?
Ten years of training.
His skin was as thick as a city wall.
Not to mention that there was no evidence, even if there was evidence, he would not admit it even if he caught a poisonous snake and bit him … Lin Dong kept a smile on his face, not affected by any external factors.
"Kong Bin, what are you talking about?" Among the three people drinking tea in the shop, a red-faced man suddenly stood up and shouted.
"I didn't say anything wrong, Uncle Lu. This guy is really a thief!" The fat boy was anxious. He patted his chest and swore, telling them what he had seen and heard.
Then, he mimicked Lin Dong's earlier actions, adding fuel to the fire as evidence.
The red-faced man listened to him.
He was stunned.
The middle-aged man who had been sitting beside him, wearing black-rimmed glasses and looking like a university professor, was secretly laughing. Fortunately, he had good self-restraint, so he did not lose his composure in front of everyone. On the other side, the old man who was leisurely sipping his tea frowned slightly. Although the two of them did not say anything, the red-faced man, who was good at reading people's expressions, knew that they had a bad impression of his nephew, who was usually evil. Now, they were even more displeased by this attempt to slander others.
And what kind of bullsh * t are you talking about?
Thief?
Stealing jade in front of everyone's eyes?
The hardness of jade was 6 to 7 on the Mohs scale, and some types were even higher. Hard metals like steel and platinum were only around 4, and gold and silver were even lower, only 2 to 3. So, not to mention looking at it, even cutting it with modern tools would take a long time, let alone looking at it. How did he steal jade just by gesturing with his hands? Wasn't his imagination a little too crazy? If he was lying on the ground, wouldn't you sue him for raping the earth? No matter how paranoid you were, you shouldn't do this!
Moreover, the Emerald Cabbage was covered in bulletproof glass. Even a fly couldn't fly in, so how could he steal it?
Telekinesis?
Are you sure you're awake? Don't stop taking medicine, my good nephew!
"Actually, it's my fault. When I was looking at the jade just now, I couldn't help but laugh when he expressed his opinion." Lin Dong expressed his apology to the fat boy.
"You …" When the fat boy heard this, he secretly cursed in his heart. It was all over.
"What have you been doing all day? Idling around and causing trouble everywhere! If you can't stand staying on Dong Mountain, then scram back to your hometown! " Sure enough, the red-faced man believed Lin Dong's explanation. He felt that his nephew was simply too embarrassed to slander others. He couldn't help but become furious. If it weren't for the old man behind him, he would have beaten him up. He wanted to give him a slap in the face and teach him how to be a proper person.
"This isn't over!" The fat boy knew that he wouldn't be able to clear his name even if he had a hundred mouths, but it didn't stop him from issuing a challenge to Lin Dong. Revenge could be taken later.
"Really? I'm scared. "Lin Dong shrugged.
"Just you wait. If I don't skin you alive, then I'm your grandson!" The fat boy blurted out.
"You're asking for a beating!" When the red-faced man heard this, he was furious. He was so arrogant in front of him. What would happen if he did it behind his back?
The fat boy knew better than to fight when the odds were against him. As soon as the red-faced man flew into a rage, he rushed out of the door. Although he was as fat as a dog, his movements were more slippery than a loach.
The red-faced man shook his head. After all, he wasn't his own son. It was his sworn brother who asked him to look after him. It was fine to scold him verbally, but it would be a bit too much if he really hit him. If something went wrong … Even though he was dissatisfied with the fat boy's behavior, the red-faced man was only trying to scare him. He turned around and looked him up and down. He saw that Lin Dong's temperament was extraordinary. He didn't think he was from an ordinary family. He was worried that the fat boy would cause trouble, so he quickly stepped forward and apologized to Lin Dong.
Lin Dong dismissed it with a smile.
He could tell that the red-faced man was a martial artist.
He had a stocky back and bronze skin. He must have practiced some kind of defensive martial arts. He must have practiced the Golden Bell Shield and Iron Shirt for a long time. However, his talent was average and he hadn't cultivated Inner Qi.
Of course, among ordinary people, this red-faced man was considered strong. His Qi and blood were at least two times stronger than ordinary people.
The bespectacled middle-aged man with a strong scholarly aura didn't know martial arts. However, the white-haired old man with a youthful face was a real expert. The old man was probably more than eighty years old, but he was full of energy. His Qi and blood were stronger than a forty or fifty year old man's. His True Qi was soft and lingering. It seemed that he had practiced Internal Martial Arts. This little bit of skill was nothing in the Cultivation World. Maybe an apprentice who had been in the school for three or four months would be stronger than him. However, on this blue planet where the Spiritual Qi was so thin, it was already very good to have such results.
The old man's talent was much better than the red-faced man's. It was a pity that he didn't practice properly.
Maybe he didn't have a real master to guide him.
Otherwise, he could have reached a higher level.
"It's okay. You guys talk. I'm going to buy something." Lin Dong wasn't interested in the three of them at all. Instead, he was curious about the girl who had been quietly observing him.
"Which master are you under?" The girl was also very curious about Lin Dong.
