Chapter 59 Taobao

  This thing is also a box, and it's about the same size as the jewelry box that girl was holding earlier. The shape is similar, but the color of the box is different, it's a dark red color, and the surface is carved with dragons and phoenixes, compared to the previous one, it looks more luxurious and grand.

  Perhaps due to his limited strength, Yang Aiyue couldn't see anything wrong with the box through his Heaven's Eye.

  It can't be seen from the outside, it seems that only Feng Shui Yuan Temple can try. Yang Ai's right hand stretched out and swept across the box, just as his hand passed over the box for a moment, a cluster of crimson mist was emitted from his palm and directly penetrated into the box, scanning the entire box. As the crimson mist entered the box, the image in Yang Ai's mind became semi-transparent.

  From the image, Yang Aiqian saw that the surface of the box was wrapped in a layer of something about 5 mm thick. There were two distinct layers of material, and it seemed that the outer layer was used to cover up the internal substance. From the age point of view, the inner layer had a history of several hundred years, but he didn't recognize what was inside. It seemed that there was an opportunity to look up some information to see what this thing was. He wasn't omniscient and didn't recognize every kind of object; when encountering something unfamiliar, he could only learn from it.

  The girl was still squatting in front of the stall, enthusiastically looking at the items, picking one up and putting another down, but couldn't figure out what they were for. Although she didn't know what these things were, Yang Aiqian knew that this must be something good, and he absolutely couldn't let it go.

  Bitter bamboo fragrant wood, three-level spiritual wood.

  Not only is it a timber, but also a medicinal herb and spice.

  In ancient times, from high-ranking officials to emperors, they all liked to use precious agarwood to make ornaments, wear them on their bodies, or carve them into decorative items to show off their status.

  The fragrance of Agarwood also has the effect of warding off evil spirits and calming the mind.

  After determining that this box was a good thing, Yang Aiqian became even more determined to get his hands on it.

  Big brother, take a look too. The girl looked up and saw Yang Ai standing in front of her, so she pulled Yang Ai's hand and let him squat down to take a look together with her.

  "Alright, I'll take a look too." Yang Aiqian was thinking of finding an excuse when he heard the girl's greeting. He responded with a sound and squatted down beside her. He randomly picked up an item, examined it slowly, put it down, then picked up another one to take a look. After looking at several items, he pointed at the first box the girl had touched and asked the stall owner: "Boss, how much is that box?"

  When Yang Aiqian suddenly asked about the box he said was a fake, the girl felt a bit strange and put down what she was holding. She turned around to look at Yang Aiqian, just wanting to ask him why he wanted to buy a counterfeit product, when she saw Yang Aiqian wink at her, the words she wanted to say shrank back.

  The middle-aged woman originally thought that since Yang Aiqian had just told the girl that the jewelry box was a modern craft, and then saw the girl put it down, she probably wouldn't be able to make this deal. Unexpectedly, she heard Yang Aiqian ask about the price of the jewelry box again, and after being stunned for a moment, she smiled and said: "This is an antique, young man, if you want it, I'll sell it to you for 3,000 yuan."

  "Boss, 3,000 is too expensive." Yang Aiqian shook her head and said: "Besides, we don't speak in riddles, you also know the true value of this thing."

  Young brother, are you an insider? The middle-aged woman had previously heard Yang Ai's tone and seemed to be able to determine the value of this object, but from Yang Ai's behavior of looking at things, it didn't seem like he was an expert, so for a while, she couldn't figure out whether Yang Ai was an insider or not.

  Boss, I'm not an expert in this field, but my family is in the wood business, so when I hold these woods in my hand, I can tell if it's a mule or a horse. It's just that I like the pattern on this thing, so I want to buy it. Yang Ai didn't dare to tell the truth, but he found an excuse to get by, so as not to let the middle-aged woman open her mouth in front of him.

  The middle-aged woman still had some doubts in her heart, but she also wanted to know the bottom line of Yang Aifeng's mind, so she spoke out and let Yang Aifeng name a price.

  The middle-aged woman's little thought, Yang Ai knew it well, but he didn't make a sound, pretending to consider, furrowing his brow, and said to the boss: "How about this, boss? I won't return your price, you know the value of these things is almost the same. I'll just buy a few more, can I choose three items from your stall?" He said this because he was confident that the middle-aged woman would agree, as her stall had only modern handicrafts except for the box he found, and they were all made in the same way.

  Although he didn't know the cost of this craft, he thought that if he could get so many, even if it was just one or two hundred each, and now with three thousand yuan, taking only three would be a thousand yuan per piece. If this deal is successful, the middle-aged woman can earn more than two thousand yuan at once. Such a good thing, as long as you're not a fool, who wouldn't want to do it?

  The middle-aged woman listened to Yang Ai's words, pretended to consider for a while, and then reluctantly said: [Since you put it that way, little brother, I'll give you the cost price today. You can choose a few yourself. But remember to take care of my business more in the future.]

  Yang Ai said with a smile: "Okay, these things look very nice, next time if I have friends who need this, I will introduce them to you."

  Miss, what do you like? Just pick two, I'll take this one myself. Yang Aiqian smiled and said to the girl beside him.

  As he spoke, he couldn't help but put away the box made of bitter bamboo and fragrant wood.

  Although things were about to be in hand, he still had to be careful and cautious in order to avoid unnecessary trouble.

  As he spoke, he also gave the girl a meaningful glance.

  After seeing the gaze that Yang Aifeng had passed over, the young girl's heart was somehow connected to Yang Aifeng and said: [I don't understand this, so you help me choose two, I like what you choose for me.]

  When Yang Aifeng heard the girl's answer, he secretly praised her cleverness in his heart.

  "Okay, then I'll help you pick two." Yang Aiqian responded with her mouth, and her hands didn't stop moving either. She looked at one after another on the stall, finally choosing a jewelry box with a more distinctive shape. After selecting one, she chose another, and only then did she take out 3,000 yuan from her body to hand over to the middle-aged woman.

  Big brother, let's go take a look at other things. The young girl was quick-witted and soon reacted.

  Alright.

  Things have been settled, and Yang Ai naturally can't wait to leave as soon as possible.

  Before leaving, Yang Ai asked a middle-aged woman for a bag and packed the three boxes she had bought into it.

  After exchanging a few polite words with the middle-aged woman, he followed the girl and left the stall.

  "Hey big brother, did we get a good deal?" Just a few meters away from the stall, the girl walking in front of Yang Ai immediately asked.

  Yang Ai Qian would not directly say that this box was a treasure, and still a big one. After all, the outside of the box had been wrapped in something by someone else, so if he said it was a sandalwood jewelry box made of bitter bamboo, how could he explain how he knew? So he immediately found an excuse.

  Not bad, this is a good thing, it's a box made of authentic sandalwood, although the box itself is not worth much money, but the sandalwood is valuable.

  "How much is this box worth?" the girl asked.

  [At least 50,000 yuan, you say it's a profit.] Yang Aiqian casually estimated a price.

  So, big brother, can you really identify treasures? The young girl came from a wealthy family and naturally wouldn't take 50,000 yuan seriously.
