That person carefully took out a brocade box that was stained with mud and passed it to the manager. The manager hurriedly opened the brocade box, and there was a green grass with dew on it.
In an instant …
The manager heaved a sigh of relief!
"Miss Ye, thank you … I really have to thank you this time." The manager held the grass carefully and turned to thank Ye Qingtang with a face full of smiles.
Who knew how many years their Pavilion Master had been looking for this grass!
If not for Ye Qingtang's guidance, who would have thought that this precious grass would actually grow in the hollow of the tree!
Ye Qingtang smiled. "You're welcome."
Qu Grass was indeed hard to find now, but that was because people had wrongly estimated where it grew. After a few decades, the location of the Qu Grass was no longer rare. Moreover, when Ye Qingtang was escaping from Ye Ning's knife in her previous life, she had encountered this Qu Grass by chance and naturally remembered it clearly.
All of this was unknown to the others.
Duan Tianrao's expression turned extremely ugly when the grass was found. He had been waiting for Ye Qingtang to lose face, but his face was now dark and gloomy.
In a short while, the Precious Treasure Pavilion's manager ordered someone to bring out the reward of one hundred thousand taels of gold.
There were a total of three big boxes, and they dazzled the onlookers.
Ye Qingtang glanced at the gold and reached out to take out the palm-sized gold bricks one by one. She slammed them on the counter where the flower moon stones were stored.
Clanging sounds rang, but Ye Qingtang did not even look at them. She squinted her eyes and looked directly at the gloomy Duan Tianrao. Duan Tianrao's face darkened with every gold brick that was slammed down.
"Thirty thousand taels of gold. I want the flower moon stones." After Ye Qingtang slammed down the last gold brick, her lips curled up, and she said something that made Duan Tianrao's veins twitch.
Duan Tianrao never dreamed that Ye Qingtang actually had such a trick up her sleeve.
She did not have enough money, but so what?
Not only did she not need to pay the Precious Treasure Pavilion, but she also took three boxes of gold from them!
Even though Duan Tianrao had a calm heart, he was still infuriated by Ye Qingtang's arrogant attitude.
"Young Master Duan, I'm really sorry. The rule of the Precious Treasure Pavilion has always been first come, first served, so this Flower Moon Stone …" The manager who had obtained the grass was naturally on Ye Qingtang's side. He walked to Duan Tianrao and spoke tactfully, but his eyes were on the Flower Moon Stone in Duan Tianrao's hand.
Duan Tianrao secretly gritted his teeth and handed over the Flower Moon Stone that he thought was already in his possession to the steward.
The caretaker handed the Flower Moon Stone to Ye Qingtang in front of Duan Tianrao. "Miss Ye, this Flower Moon Stone is yours."
Ye Qingtang raised her eyebrows and looked at the pea-sized flower moonstone in her hand. Then, she looked up and glanced at Duan Tianrao.
This look made Duan Tianrao feel like his lungs were about to explode.
He originally wanted to see Ye Qingtang make a fool of herself, but he was the one who made a fool of himself!
"Congratulations on getting what you wanted, Miss Ye. I still have something to do, so I'll take my leave first." Duan Tianrao clenched his teeth and spat out these words stiffly. Then, he left with his servants without turning his head back.
No one expected things to end like this, and everyone could not help but sigh.
