"Is this Master Mo Yang incredible?" Zhang Xuan looks at him doubtfully.
To be able to cause so many people to go mad with agitation, what kind of person is this Master Mo Yang? How can he possess such incredible powers?
"Indeed, he is incredible!" The vendor's tone is filled with admiration. "He is an incredible appraiser!"
"Appraiser?" Zhang Xuan nods his head.
Appraiser is a unique occupation just like gourmet. However, it belongs to the Middle Nine Paths.
Even though this occupation isn't as prestigious as apothecaries, blacksmiths, and formation masters, it can drive countless people into a frenzy.
That is because he is able to discern the quality of a treasure with a single glance. Especially in the field of [Treasure Gambling], he can be said to be a cheat, an existence akin to the God of Gambling. As long as such a person appears, there will be countless people who will chase after him.
Treasure Gambling is similar to stone gambling on Earth. Some ancient treasures will lose their luster under the cover of rocks, plants, and the like. If one were to look at it from the surface, one would only be able to tell what it is, but the tier and specifications of the treasure would be impossible to discern.
Only by polishing the exterior can one reveal the true nature of the treasure!
Most of the merchants who sell these treasures don't polish them. Instead, they sell them directly. Just like in stone gambling, one buys it based on one's eye of discernment and intuition before polishing it.
If it is done well, one might become a tycoon and obtain a peerless treasure. However, there is also the possibility of losing money and going bankrupt!
A tycoon and a beggar.
It is precisely because of the unknowns that countless people are mesmerized by it and go crazy over it.
Appraisers are able to discern the authenticity of treasures. Some of the more incredible ones are also able to determine the quality of an artifact before it is polished. Thus, even though this occupation is only one of the Middle Nine Paths, it is sought after by countless people.
After all, this is the finger of gold. As long as one thinks that it is good, no matter how much money one spends, there will be people willing to buy it!
"This Master Mo Yang came here seven days ago. It is said that he is from another kingdom and he is extremely formidable. Back then, no one paid any attention to him!"
The vendor introduces excitedly. "On the first day, someone bought an object that looks like a wine bottle. It costs around a hundred gold coins. He said that he doesn't want to buy it, but that person didn't listen to him. In the end, after polishing it, there is indeed something wrong with it. It isn't even worth a single gold coin!"
"On the second day, he persuaded a fighter to spend two hundred gold coins to buy a treasure. That person didn't believe him, so he didn't buy it. Instead, he bought it himself. After polishing it, he realized that it was a mortal pinnacle weapon! Even thousands of gold coins couldn't buy it! In an instant, he had earned tens of times more! This made that martial artist so regretful that he almost wanted to die … "
"On the third day, he had already gained quite a reputation. Many people wanted him to guide them in their purchases. Only one lucky person managed to get this opportunity. He bought a small jade bottle that was worth 500 gold coins! At that time, everyone thought that he had made a mistake. No matter how powerful this jade bottle was, it wasn't worth so much money … Who knew that when he opened it, there were actually six sixth grade medicinal pills inside! At that time, someone offered 10,000 gold coins to buy it! "
The stall owner's eyes lit up. "In other words, the price has increased by twenty times! Too amazing! For the next few days, he would come every day. However, he would only give pointers to one person each day, and that person would definitely earn a lot! Because of this, many people went crazy. They waited here every day, hoping to gain his favor and give them some pointers! Today, they're here again. Of course they're excited … "
"Amazing!"
Hearing about the deeds of Master Mo Yang, Zhang Xuan's eyes light up and he nods his head.
To be able to see the true value of the treasures hidden beneath the moss and mud, his eye of discernment is probably not simple.
"Un, right, I have the Library of Heaven's Path. Does that mean … that I can do the same?"
Zhang Xuan's eyes light up.
With the Library of Heaven's Path, he would be able to see the true nature of an object as long as he touched it. Other people rely on luck to gamble, but he doesn't!
"There's a path to riches now!"
At this point, Zhang Xuan couldn't hold himself back anymore.
This is similar to stone gambling. Before others buy an ore, they have to consider whether it is possible to open a jade stone or not. However, Zhang Xuan is different. As long as he touches it, the Library of Heaven's Path in his mind will automatically give him the answer. If he were to buy it after knowing the answer, he would definitely earn a huge profit!
It just so happens that his salary is low and he doesn't have much money. Thus, he can give it a try and earn a huge sum!
Following the directions given by the stall owner, Zhang Xuan soon arrives at the location of the treasure gambling.
Indeed, it is no different from stone gambling. The long platform is filled with all kinds of treasures. These items are all covered by a thick layer of moss, mud, rust, and rocks. It is impossible to even discern their form, needless to say, their value.
"Let me give it a try first!"
Indeed, it is impossible to discern anything from these items. Zhang Xuan only thinks that the Library of Heaven's Path is able to discern the true nature of these items. Thus, he casually touches a treasure the size of his head.
Weng!
With a jolt, a book appears in his mind.
"Ornamental Vase, forged by a 1-mo craftsman from the Southern Kiln. Flaws: It has cracks on it and will shatter at any moment …"
Flipping open the book, it is filled with annotations.
"It looks huge, but it turns out to be trash!" A glint flashes across Zhang Xuan's eyes.
Just as he had guessed, as long as he touches it, a detailed introduction to the treasure will appear. No matter how deeply these treasures are hidden, there is nothing for him to be afraid of!
Casually touching the few large items before him, he realizes that their value isn't high. Even after touching a dozen of them, they aren't worth much. Zhang Xuan can't help but shake his head. It is no wonder why the sellers of these items are able to make such a profit. Furthermore, appraisers are highly sought after. The chances of a treasure appearing here are simply too low!
"Ah, master, please give me some pointers!"
"As long as you give me pointers, I am willing to pay you!"
"Master, I beg of you …"
…
Just as he is casually touching the treasures, a series of shrill cries resounds. Master Mo Yang, who everyone was fawning over a moment ago, walks over.
The eyes of these people who are fawning over him are reddened, as though they have gone mad.
"Master, as long as you give me some pointers, I will do anything you ask of me …"
"Master, I am willing to bear your child, as long as you give me pointers …"
There are even ladies who take the initiative to approach him, flirting with him as they flirt with him.
Zhang Xuan is dumbfounded.
He is simply too popular. From the looks of it, as long as this Master Mo Yang gives the order, there will be plenty of ladies willing to serve him tonight.
"I will be leaving Tianxuan Royal City tonight. In order to repay everyone's passion, I will appraise five times for five people today! There is no need for you all to fight over it. As long as you are fated with me, there will be a chance for you all! "
Arriving at the treasure gambling area, Master Mo Yang stops.
This master has a snow-white beard and he doesn't look young at all. However, his skin is abnormally smooth and there isn't the slightest crease in it. It seems like he has maintained his skin well. His eyes carry an authoritative aura, causing one to feel ashamed of their inferiority and unwilling to meet his gaze.
