Chapter 432 The Price of Two Sacred Leaves
Throughout the pawnshop, many people were staring at the jade pendant with intense longing in their eyes.
However, some wealthy families did not take any action. They seemed to be thinking things through, since they knew they couldn't afford to successfully auction it off.
Although there is only a fine line between wealthy families and established clans, the difference is vast, and this includes many factors.
"Is Brother Ye interested in this?"
Seeing Ye Ru's appearance, Qian Wensong became interested and asked.
“Brother Qian, you’re too kind. This item may hold the secret to my father’s disappearance, so I’m trying my best to buy it.”
Ye Ru smiled and said.
This thing is the same as the one I have. If there is any connection between the two, then I must get my hands on it, even if it means revealing that I have the Holy Leaf. I must buy it.
Upon hearing this, Qian Wensong's face showed an embarrassed expression, and then he smiled wryly:
"Brother Ye, I'm afraid I can't help you with this. After all, this sum of over ten million represents many years of pure profit for my family. Even if I agreed, I'm afraid my father wouldn't agree, so..."
"I know, thank you for your kindness, Brother Qian. I can buy this myself."
Before Qian Wensong could finish speaking, Ye Ru shook his head and said that he knew the other party's difficulties.
Amidst the silence of many, Shi Yu from the Shi family finally spoke:
"Eighteen million."
The sudden sound caused an uproar among those present; as expected, someone couldn't resist making a move.
"Twenty million."
Before Shi Yu could finish speaking, a member of the Zasheng family also spoke up calmly.
"A miscellaneous scholar?"
When Shi Yu saw the young man, a cold glint flashed in his eyes, and then he said with a forced smile:
"So it's Brother Lü from the miscellaneous school. What's this, Brother Lü, interested in the things from our family of historians?"
"Of course, after all, this thing can help people find semi-sacred secrets. What, does Brother Shi intend to monopolize the market?"
The young man surnamed Lü smiled slightly, opened his folding fan, and spoke slowly.
"Heh heh, be careful you don't have the life to guard this treasure."
Shi Yu's gaze gradually turned cold, and her words carried a threatening tone.
"Don't worry, since I dare to come and steal, I'm not afraid of others coming."
The young man surnamed Lü curled his lip and said.
"Good, that's bold. Twenty-five million."
Shi Yu snorted coldly, then spoke, words that made many people gasp.
The Shi family actually raised the price to 25 million, which surprised everyone.
After all, it's just a key. If it can really unlock the river of history, that's fine, but if the unlocked river of history turns out to be empty, then everything will have been for nothing.
Everyone watched with amusement, observing the Shi family and the Miscellaneous family without saying a word. After all, once you got involved in a conflict between such powerful families, it wouldn't be easy to get out.
"Twenty-five million..."
The young man surnamed Lü took a deep breath, a cold glint flashing in his eyes, and then said:
"thirty million!"
"Thirty-five million! Brother Lü, I wonder how you, with your wealth, can compete with us?"
Before the former could finish speaking, Shi Yu sneered, her eyes flashing with deep disdain.
"Young master, we don't have enough money, and we're far from the aristocratic families. Let's not rob them."
"Then we can just behead them!"
After a moment of contemplation, a scholar standing next to the young man surnamed Lü spoke.
"You're right, why bother spending so much money?"
Upon hearing this, Lü Song nodded and then gave up.
Seeing that this small glass pendant had reached such a high price, even Lin Tianxiao, with his composure, was somewhat shocked.
"Two sacred leaves plucked from the ancient tree of the Holy Way."
Just when Shi Yu thought victory was assured, a faint voice came from here, breaking the silence.
The sudden sound caused an uproar among those present, and voices rang out continuously.
"Two sacred leaves from the ancient sacred tree? My God."
"No way, two Sacred Leaves for one of these? Are they out of their mind?"
The sound resounded throughout the area, filling everyone with disbelief.
After all, the Sacred Leaf is a priceless treasure. Although it differs from the Sacred Page by only one character, its value is only slightly inferior to the Sacred Page.
Moreover, with this sacred leaf, one can be immune to all poisons and diseases, and it can even be used to make medicinal pills, which have a certain chance of restoring the broken book palace.
Moreover, although these sacred leaves are rare, some aristocratic families and wealthy clans do possess them, but each one is a family heirloom, and they would not easily be willing to use it to defend themselves.
Therefore, when Ye Ru's voice came from here, everyone looked in that direction.
Compared to these people, Shi Yu's expression also turned extremely cold, as he also knew the value of this sacred leaf.
As Ye Ru raised the price, no one spoke up this time. After all, the value of this one Sacred Page was over 20 million, and two of them would be enough to sweep away a whole group of Sacred Families.
"Who is this person? He actually possesses two Sacred Leaves! Could he be the one who produces Sacred Leaves?!"
Shi Yu slammed her hand on the armrest and said coldly.
"Where did this come from? He's just dressed as a scholar. No, this student is from the Yanhuang Kingdom?"
Suddenly, one of the scholars exclaimed in surprise, seemingly finding it extremely strange. After all, a scholar from the Yanhuang Kingdom had swaggered here and presented the expensive Sacred Leaf. Wasn't this just making him a sitting duck?
"Two sacred leaves, my God!"
Lin Tianxiao's gaze also held a hint of solemnity as he looked at Ye Ru. The price of two Sacred Leaves was truly considerable.
"What, is someone else going to raise the price?"
Looking around, Lin Tianxiao smiled and said, "Achieving this effect is already quite good."
Two sacred leaves would cost at least 50 million, while this top-grade glass jade is only worth a little over 30 million, almost double the price.
"Young Master, what should we do?"
The scholar standing next to Shi Yu spoke in a deep voice, his eyes filled with murderous intent.
"What else can we do? How dare someone steal the treasures of my Zhong Sheng family, especially from a barbarian from the Yanhuang Kingdom? He's doomed!"
Seemingly furious, Shi Yu crushed the armrest of the chair, then glared coldly at Ye Ru and said again, "Make arrangements immediately. Send some scholars to kill him, then wait for me. I'll make sure this guy doesn't return! Yes, and also Lu Song from this humble school!"
"yes!"
As he spoke, the Hanlin scholar nodded and then disappeared into the center of the hall.
