My Waste Husband -
Chapter 1242
Chapter 1242
In the afternoon.
The Chu Family members appeared on the streets of Eastern City in large numbers, as if they were announcing their return.
Placido personally brought Ranjeet to the street and explained the happenings of Eastern City to him. He now looked as if he was trying his best to cultivate Ranjeet.
Eurydice, Jacindo, and Cleytus walked on the street and walked around the stalls.
"Junior Sister, do you like this?" Cleytus picked up a hairpin and put it on Eurydice's head.
Eurydice smiled, took off her hairpin, and put it back on the stall. "Senior brother, don't waste money. We've just entered the city and have a lot of things to do. We're very nervous on this aspect." "How much money can this be?" Cleytus waved his hand and didn't care.
At this moment, a man from the Chu Family came running over with an anxious face.
"Senior Cleytus, something bad has happened!" This was someone from the Chu Family who was in charge of logistics.
"What's the rush?" Cleytus frowned and looked around. Then he scolded, "You're so impatient. What will people think when they see you like this?! What's going on? Tell me!"
The person who came wiped the sweat from his forehead. "Senior Cleytus, things aren't looking good. Just now, we went to buy grain, and the price of grain in the entire Eastern City has risen four times!"
"What?!" Cleytus was shocked. "The price of grain has risen four times? Wouldn't the citizens of Eastern City rebel?"
"Why would they? Last night, when Knox held a banquet, the Colver Family sent troops to give grain cards to people. People who have grain cards can buy the food at a cheap price. Every family has a grain card, but we don't. They are forcing us away!"
"How dare they?!" Cleytus waved his hand and said, "Let's go and see!"
They ignored the stalls and marched towards the granary.
When they were passing by a street, Cleytus saw hundreds of adventurers blocking it. They crowded there and it took them a long time to think of a way out.
"What's going on?" Cleytus asked.
The Chu Family member who had just come to report replied, "Someone just opened this Treasure Pavilion. There is a master inside who can identify treasures. These people are all lining up to see the master."
A look of greed appeared in Cleytus's eyes as he looked inside the Treasure Pavilion. Unfortunately, there were too many people surrounding him, and he couldn't see anything at all.
"Those who know how to appraise treasures are all extraordinary people!" Jacindo said, "If our Chu Family has such a talent, we would be treated as VIPs wherever we go. Life wouldn't be so difficult at all."
"That's right." The messenger from the Chu Family sighed, "I heard that this Treasure Pavilion has already earned six hundred gold coins in just one morning. Moreover, this is their first day of business, so there are a lot of people who are willing to pay for it. If they really want to collect the money, it shouldn't be a problem for them to earn a thousand gold coins in the morning. Compared with us who have to go out and take a risk to hunt, we are only able to get a few dozen gold coins if we put our lives on the line. Ther way of living is good."
"Isn't the Treasure Pavilion in the city like this?" Cleytus looked to the east. The original Treasure Pavilion was in the east part of the city. "It is said that if you want to find a master of Treasure Pavilion to have a look at your things, you would have to pay thousands of gold coins. You have to wait in line for the master to see it or not, which depends on the master's mood. The people in this Treasure Pavilion may not have the skill of the master of Treasure Pavilion, but the speed of making money is beyond our imagination."
Jacindo cursed, "If we had such a talent, why would we have to care about the price of grain that Eastern City has set for us?"
"If we had such a talent, we wouldn't have to live in Eastern City. We could go wherever we want! Who would dare to offend us? A talent who can identify treasures is even more precious than a top master!" Cleytus sighed with emotion. "Forget it. Let's go. This kind of talent has nothing to do with us."
Several people from the Chu Family went around this street and headed for the granary.
In the Treasure Pavilion.
Henry continued to sit in the old- fashioned wooden armchair and pretended to be a master.
Henry's knowledge of the experimental subjects was not as good as Flynn's. After all, Flynn had been in the lab for so long that he almost memorized the entire research materials out of boredom.
As for Henry, he just took a rough look at it. Now he was discerning the treasure. Thirty per cent was based on theory, thirty per cent on practice. Only with his strength could he see the basis of some basic things. The remaining forty per cent was just guessing. Others did not know, nor did he know. If he said it first, others would naturally listen to him.
"Master, master, please help me take a look at this!" A man covered in blood rushed to Henry. The blood on his body had just dried not long ago, and he did not have time to go back and change his clothes before he ran to the Treasure Pavilion.
"Don't worry. Take it out and I'll know once I see what it is." Henry acted like a divine b*stard.
The other party took out a few scales from his clothes and placed them in front of Henry. These scales were the size of a palm. They were completely black and suffused with a layer of lustre. When one touched it, it was exceptionally smooth and had a refreshing feeling to it.
Henry's mind moved, and a purple light condensed in Henry's hand. The light was as thin as a needle, and the other side didn't notice it at all.
When the Qi in Henry's hand touched the scales, the Qi completely dissipated. Looking at the scales again, there was not even a trace left.
Although it was only a ray of Qi light in Henry's hand, it was the Qi light from an expert in the Divine Realm! Moreover, Henry practised the divine will, so his destructive power was strong. When he first entered the Divine Realm, he was able to destroy Deadwood with one sword move, which showed the lethality of his Qi. But at this moment, it couldn't leave any trace on the scale.
Henry asked, "Where did you get it?"
The adventurer swallowed a mouthful of saliva and his eyes showed a hint of fear. It could be seen that in his heart, he was scared to even mention the origin of this thing. He trembled and said two words, "Demon Valley!"
Demon Valley!
When Henry was idle, he also heard some things about the Recluse World from others. The so- called Demon Valley, in the dialect of natives, was the birthplace of those demon beasts. In fact, it
was the location of the Alvin League's laboratory.
The Demon Valley had existed for an extremely long period of time, and it was unknown how many mutated demonic beasts had been born within it.
"Did you go to the Demon Valley?"
"No." The adventurer shook his head repeatedly. "How would we dare to go to the Demon Valley? We were chased by a big demonic beast to the vicinity of the Demon Valley, but who would have thought that a large number of demonic beasts would actually emerge from the Demon Valley. From the looks of it, it seems that they are going to surround the city. I picked up these scales from the outside of the Demon Valley."
"Picked them up?" Henry sneered. "It's from a giant python, right? Does it have a certain level of spiritual intelligence? Do you know that it can use something to lure you, and it is hiding nearby hunting? Let me tell you, you come here to ask me about this thing. If you don't want to tell the truth about the origin of this thing, you can leave!"
Henry said and waved his hand directly. It seemed that he wanted to drive the guest away.
