Book One, Zhao Fu, Zhao Fu, Zhao Fu.
If he was lucky enough to obtain one, he would receive one billion gold coins. He would not be able to spend that much money in his lifetime, and with that much money, he would be able to build his own faction. With that much money, he would be able to buy all sorts of precious treasures to increase his Cultivation.
With so much money, everyone felt incredibly excited and almost went crazy. Soon, the entire City heard about this, and it became quite lively as everyone searched for the bronze shards.
The news quickly spread to nearby Cities, causing them to excitedly search for the bronze shards.
To Zhao Fu, money was everything. If he could use money to buy a bronze shard, let alone one billion, he would even be willing to spend several billion. If anyone wanted a bronze shard, they would most likely come to trade, as bronze shards were useless to them.
Of course, buying a bronze shard for one billion gold coins would make people suspicious, but since Zhao Fu said that it was an ancestor's relic, everyone could understand.
This location was quite remote, and no one would think that the bronze shard that Zhao Fu was looking for was something that other people were looking for, making them even more relaxed.
Zhao Fu sat on a chair in the square and waited. Zhao Fu did not know if this method would allow him to obtain a bronze shard, and it would be too difficult and a waste of time to look for them one by one.
Soon, many people gathered around with bronze shards in their hands. They excitedly asked if the shard in their hands was the one that Zhao Fu was looking for, causing the scene to become quite chaotic.
Zhao Fu called out, "Line up one by one!"
Everyone immediately started to line up, and Zhao Fu had Arasina and the other women maintain order so that the scene would not become chaotic.
The first was a big man with a beard. He held a bronze shard that was as big as a palm, and after it was about an inch long, he excitedly asked, "Is this the bronze shard that you found?"
Zhao Fu did not even want to look at such a big piece and directly said, "This isn't the bronze shard that I found!"
The big man said unwillingly, "Take another look. Maybe it's the fragment you're looking for. Let me tell you, this fragment was passed down by my grandfather for many years."
In fact, this bronze fragment was something that the burly man had just knocked off a bronze chariot. The burly man looked very old, so he wouldn't be able to fool Zhao Fu with it. If he could trick it, he would be able to obtain 1 billion gold coins, and he would be rich.
Zhao Fu said, "That's really not it! Next. "
Seeing that he couldn't fool Zhao Fu, the big man didn't waste any more time. He immediately left to search for the bronze shard.
The next one was also a strong young man. Just now, when they said that they would have to queue up, the strong people all rushed to the front.
In actuality, they didn't have to fight over it. As long as it was real, Zhao Fu would definitely take it. Even if it was fake, he wouldn't want it. Zhao Fu had already explained it, but these people just wouldn't listen and wanted to stand at the front.
The second person brought a thin bronze shard that was as big as a leaf. It looked quite ancient, and Zhao Fu carefully sensed it, but the bronze shard within his body didn't have any reaction. This meant that this bronze shard wasn't what Zhao Fu was looking for.
Zhao Fu said, "Apologies, this isn't it. That's not it. Next. "
Hearing this, the young man looked quite disappointed and turned to leave. He planned to continue searching, as 1 billion gold coins was simply too tempting.
The third person was a tall man who handed a bronze shard to Zhao Fu. This bronze shard seemed to have just been melted and looked quite new. This person was even more perfunctory than the first person – wanting to use a new bronze shard to trick Zhao Fu – did he think that Zhao Fu was an idiot?
Zhao Fu frowned and said, "This isn't it? Next!"
The man said somewhat shamelessly, "Why isn't this one? This is something that I found after searching for a long time; it's definitely the bronze shard you're looking for. "
Boom!
A massive aura exploded out from Zhao Fu's body, rippling out like water, causing everyone to feel an intense fear.
The tall man looked at Zhao Fu in fear before turning and running away.
Zhao Fu's expression was cold as he stood up and said, "As long as it's a real bronze shard, I'm willing to spend 1 billion gold coins to buy it. However, don't try to trick me with a fake, or don't blame me for being impolite."
Hearing this, some people lowered their heads and quickly left. It was evident that they wanted to trick Zhao Fu, but after sensing Zhao Fu's power, they no longer had any courage.
The remaining people most likely weren't trying to trick Zhao Fu; this saved Zhao Fu a lot of time.
The fourth person was an ordinary-looking middle-aged woman. Facing Zhao Fu, she looked quite nervous as she handed a bronze shard to Zhao Fu and said, "Do you think this is it?"
Zhao Fu looked at it. This bronze shard was most likely a bronze cauldron shard, and he said, "Sorry, it's not!"
"Oh!" The middle-aged woman nodded before taking the bronze shard and preparing to leave.
Seeing that everyone was afraid of him, Zhao Fu's expression softened and he smiled as he said, "Everyone, you don't need to be afraid of me. As long as you don't try to trick me, I won't harm you. It wasn't easy for you to find the bronze shard, so anyone who finds the shard will receive 100 gold coins as a reward."
Everyone immediately became happy. Even if it wasn't, there would still be a reward. Even though it wasn't a lot, it was still something to be happy about. Everyone was no longer afraid of Zhao Fu, and the scene became livelier as everyone excitedly lined up.
The middle-aged woman turned and asked, "Do I have it now?"
Zhao Fu nodded and waved his hand, causing 100 gold coins to appear on the table. The middle-aged woman put away the gold coins and thanked Zhao Fu before turning and leaving.
The fifth person was a valiant-looking young man. He impatiently walked up and smiled as he asked, "Sir, please take a look at mine."
Zhao Fu looked at it and said, "It's not!"
The young man felt quite disappointed and smiled as he nodded. He had already expected this outcome and knew that it wouldn't be so easy to obtain the one billion gold coins.
Zhao Fu waved his hand and gave him 100 gold coins.
The young man put away the gold coins and thanked Zhao Fu before turning and leaving.
The news quickly spread that anyone who participated would receive a gold coin reward. This caused everyone to feel quite shocked, and they felt that Zhao Fu had a lot of money. If hundreds of thousands of people went, they would have to give away tens of millions of gold coins, which they would be quite reluctant to do.
Seeing how rich Zhao Fu was, some people who were worried that Zhao Fu didn't have that much money felt completely at ease. At the same time, everyone was quite curious about Zhao Fu's identity.
Zhao Fu's actions won the favor of many people, and with the gold coins, many people took their bronze shards to Zhao Fu to see if they were what Zhao Fu needed.
This method collected almost all of the bronze shards nearby, and it was much easier for Zhao Fu to find them himself.
