Dandy Pill God-Chapter 186 I Want It

In that instant, Zhu Fei’s heart trembled greatly.

He had never expected that accompanying Tang Mengyun to buy a Jade Pendant, he would stumble upon a Magic Artifact.

Moreover, from the looks of it, it was clearly a Magic Artifact meant for defense.

What Jade Talisman, what Amulet, compared to the Jade Pendant-like Magic Artifact before him, those were simply trash.

As long as he had this Jade Pendant-like Magic Artifact and let Tang Mengyun claim ownership by dripping her blood onto it, and then slowly refine it, he wouldn’t need to worry about her safety.

He believed that even if a Martial Artist with Half-step Gang Strength came, as long as they didn’t possess an equivalent weapon, they couldn’t harm Tang Mengyun in a short time.

The more Zhu Fei thought about it, the more excited, the more thrilled he became.

No way! No matter the cost, he had to acquire this Jade Pendant for Mengyun!

Although Zhu Fei thought this in his heart, he remained outwardly calm.

He didn’t immediately go for that Jade Pendant Magic Artifact, but instead casually browsed through the other Jade Pendant accessories that the middle-aged shopkeeper had brought out.

In the end, he shook his head deliberately, and then casually picked up the yellowing Jade Pendant, which was a Magic Artifact.

After a scan with his Divine Sense, Zhu Fei carefully observed the structure of the Jade Pendant Magic Artifact and his heart involuntarily skipped a beat again.

It truly was a Magic Artifact and even among the Low-Grade, it belonged to the very top tier.

The surface of the Magic Artifact was a faint yellow, and several Defensive Array Runes were engraved in the middle. Although its appearance seemed unremarkable, the energy contained within was absolutely not to be underestimated.

He believed that this Magic Artifact would likely be coveted by many Qi Refinement Cultivators in the Five Mountains Continent.

"Shopkeeper, how much for this Jade Pendant?"

Holding the Jade Pendant, Zhu Fei casually toyed with it for a while, then lifted his eyes to inquire from the middle-aged shopkeeper.

Seeing Zhu Fei inquiring about the price of the Jade Pendant, the middle-aged shopkeeper’s face immediately lit up.

In fact, he knew very well the origin of this Jade Pendant, aware that it was unearthed from below and its history was not particularly clean.

Initially, he had acquired it to deal with those who knew their goods.

But now, this Jade Pendant had been sitting in his shop for a long time, yet no one had shown interest in it, which inevitably made the middle-aged shopkeeper a bit anxious.

The reason he had brought out the Jade Pendant was precisely because he valued Zhu Fei’s discerning eye, feeling that he might be somewhat interested in this kind of goods.

At last, Zhu Fei did not disappoint the middle-aged shopkeeper.

After a slight contemplation, the shopkeeper extended a finger to Zhu Fei and spoke softly, "Young man, I see you know your stuff too, so I won’t fool you. You should be aware this Jade Pendant is definitely a genuine antique."

After a brief pause, the middle-aged shopkeeper continued, "How about one million? For one million, this item will be yours. What do you think, young man?"

"Hiss!"

Suddenly hearing the price the middle-aged shopkeeper quoted, Tang Mengyun immediately gasped in surprise from the side.

"Shopkeeper, isn’t this price a bit too steep? What kind of Jade Pendant could possibly be worth a million?"

Tang Mengyun felt slightly angry in her heart. She hadn’t expected the middle-aged shopkeeper to be so greedy, directly quoting a price of one million to them.

Although to Tang Mengyun’s family situation, a million wasn’t really a large sum.

But having money doesn’t mean it should be wasted. In her view, this yellow-tinted Jade Pendant, even though an antique, should be valued at most around a hundred thousand.

But this middle-aged shopkeeper dared to tell them that this Jade Pendant cost a million. Did he consider them young and easy to fool?

Suddenly facing Tang Mengyun’s questioning, the middle-aged shopkeeper didn’t look at her at that moment but instead kept his gaze on Zhu Fei.

He believed that with Zhu Fei’s discernment, he could see the true value of this Jade Pendant.

He dared not say more, but if it really got into the hands of some antique enthusiasts, even one million two or three hundred thousand wouldn’t be a problem at all.

If it weren’t for the fact that the middle-aged shopkeeper considered the Jade Pendant hard to sell and felt that Zhu Fei was an expert, he wouldn’t have quoted his bottom-line price so quickly.

Holding the Jade Pendant and seeing Tang Mengyun still somewhat huffy, Zhu Fei couldn’t help but smile and pat her on the shoulder, saying, "Mengyun, don’t get excited. The boss isn’t ripping us off. This price really isn’t expensive. Let’s do a million."

"Uh, Zhu Fei, you...?"

Hearing Zhu Fei’s words, Tang Mengyun’s expression was briefly stunned; then it seemed as if she had thought of something, and her previously slightly huffy expression was quickly put away.

She knew Zhu Fei wouldn’t deceive her. Since he said this Jade Pendant was worth a million, then it must be worth a million.

"Alright then, I’ll listen to you on this."

Saying this, Tang Mengyun then turned towards the middle-aged shopkeeper and said, "This Jade Pendant is for a million, right? Okay, since my friend said so, I’ll buy it. Can I pay by card here?"

The middle-aged shopkeeper saw the change in Tang Mengyun’s attitude with just one sentence from Zhu Fei and was immediately astounded.

Good heavens, who is this young man? Truly fortunate indeed. Such a wealthy, and also so beautiful young lady, actually listens to him like this.

From the looks of it, it seems the one who’s paying is this young woman. You have to understand, this is a million, not just a hundred dollars.

The middle-aged shopkeeper thought somewhat surprised but immediately nodded and replied, "No problem, I can accept card payments."

"Mhm." Tang Mengyun nodded, speaking as she pulled out a beige wallet from her purse, took out an Industrial and Commercial Bank card from it, and was about to hand it over to the middle-aged shopkeeper to pay.

"Hold on!"

However, just at that moment, an extremely discordant voice suddenly rang out from the entrance behind them.

One could see a middle-aged bald man, around fifty, pot-bellied, walking in arm-in-arm with a beautiful young ’woman.’

As the two walked in, the middle-aged chubby man first quickly glanced at Tang Mengyun with gleaming eyes, then he shifted his gaze onto the Magic Artifact Jade Pendant.

"Boss, I’ll offer one hundred fifty thousand for this Jade Pendant. Just wrap it quickly for me, I’ll take it."

The chubby man began with a very arrogant attitude, clearly not giving any regard to Zhu Fei or Tang Mengyun, the two youngsters.

"This...?"

The middle-aged shopkeeper was momentarily dumbfounded. He had not expected that while he was having a good conversation with Zhu Fei, such a person would suddenly appear.

But having been in business here for a long time, he knew the importance of reputation.

Moreover, he sensed that Zhu Fei and Tang Mengyun, although young, were probably not characters to be trifled with, likely having some backing behind them.

Although one hundred fifty thousand was tempting, he eventually still bit his teeth and hesitated before saying to the chubby man,

"Sir, these two had seen the Jade Pendant first. Could you perhaps consider choosing another Jade Pendant..."

"Consider your ’mom’! What are you looking at! Do you know who I am? I’m laying it down right here, don’t think I can’t see what’s up with this Jade Pendant. If you keep dawdling, watch out, I won’t be nice to you. Just hurry up and wrap it up for me!"

Before the middle-aged shopkeeper could finish his previous sentence, the chubby man immediately glared and spoke with a supremely arrogant demeanor.
