Chapter 165: The Jade Pendant of Discrimination
Wanjin Auction House, backstage.
As the largest chain auction house in Miaohuazhou, the people coming and going here are all top businessmen or powerful monks in Miaohuazhou.
Many people wear cloaks to hide their identities.
Sometimes when your identity is recognized, it is easy to make enemies... After all, not everyone in this world is honest, and the treasure in your hand may attract the interest of people with low morals.
They can just kill and rob.
Chi Miao and the others also all wore cloaks and came over. In order to prevent any troublesome scenes from happening, only a few geniuses with whom they had close relationships came along.
If a large group of people came, with everyone wearing cloaks... people would most likely think they were here to cause trouble.
Jin Shengfei was still worried: "Chi Miao, do you really have business to discuss or are you fooling me?"
Chi Miao: "Why would I fool you? Do you need me to fool you with your IQ?"
Jin Shengfei: “…”
Chi Miao smiled and said, "Just wait and see. The conditions I offer...are ones that no businessman can refuse."
Jin Shengfei said "Oh", and then said: "The person in charge of this branch is also a relative of my Jin family. I have made an appointment with him for you, and he will be here soon."
After a while.
There were bursts of exclamations coming from the backstage, as if someone very important was coming.
"The branch president, he actually showed up here! What kind of distinguished guest is here today that would warrant his personal presence?!"
You can't just meet the president of Wanjin Auction House whenever you want, even the branch president can't.
Wanjin Auction House’s partners will have three levels of membership, namely bronze, silver, and gold.
Each level has a person in charge of each level.
The hierarchy is very strict. Unless you have priceless treasures, you cannot jump across membership levels to find a higher-level person in charge.
In most cases, the branch manager of an auction house can only be seen by the elders or clan leaders of the ten major sects who have news about rare treasures.
Now he appeared and walked in front of Chi Miao and others.
Everyone was guessing the identities of Chi Miao and others.
"It must be very noble!"
The branch president was a fat uncle with a blessed look. He wore a golden robe and had a very amiable smile, but Chi Miao could tell from his eyes that he was not a good person.
Yes, good people can’t do business.
With such a powerful business like the Jin family, how many good people can there be?
I'm afraid that the few good people left are all stupid and have gone to practice Taoism.
"Fat Jin."
"Chi Miao."
After the two sides greeted each other, Fatty Jin suggested: "Young Master has told me everything before coming here. Young Master Jin's friends are my friends. Let's go inside and talk."
Chi Miao nodded.
Several people followed Fatty Jin to the office backstage.
The people who were following them were completely stunned: "They actually... They actually went straight into the office? How big a business must this be! Tianjian City is really full of hidden talents!"
It is impressive enough to have the branch president come in person, but it is rare to see him enter the office in a year.
It seems like he heard everyone's blind flattery.
Chi Miao, who had already gone inside, quickly came out and looked at everyone.
Everyone: "?"
Chi Miao: "Don't make blind guesses. We are just ordinary people. We just have connections and rely on connections."
Everyone: "???"
Through connections?
No...who has such a strong relationship with ordinary people? !
After Chi Miao returned to the office.
Everyone has taken off their cloaks, and everyone is looking at Chi Miao with strange eyes, including Fatty Jin.
Chi Miao: “What’s wrong?”
Everyone: "..."
Jin Dapang quietly put his mouth close to Jin Shengfei's ear and asked, "Has she always been so abstract?"
Jin Shengfei: "Oh no, it's just occasionally."
Fatty Jin breathed a sigh of relief.
Jin Shengfei: "She is usually much more abstract than this."
Fatty Jin: “…”
It really came as a huge shock to him, a small businessman.
Chi Miao: “I can hear you.”
Fatty Jin laughed awkwardly twice: "Haha."
How embarrassing.
I forgot that a cultivator’s ears are sharper than a dog’s.
As businessmen, they have always been good at getting along with everyone, but he was indeed shocked and didn't know what to do for a moment.
"Okay, let's get down to business." Chi Miao sat down naturally, and then pointed to the seat opposite and said, "Sit down, you're welcome."
Fatty Jin: “??!”
No! Who is being polite? Who is the guest?
Shouldn't he be the one to say this?!
You are such a guest, you have turned the tables!
Fatty Jin: "You cultivators are quite... quite different from normal people."
Everyone retorted: "No, she's the only special one, so you better be careful."
Fatty Jin sat down, took a sip of water tactically, and suddenly felt a little sweaty.
The pressure is overwhelming, okay!
The main thing is that Chi Miao is abstract, but the key is that she is Jin Shengfei's guest.
When contacting him, Jin Shengfei repeatedly emphasized that he must be polite, must be serious, and must not be careless at all!
As the young master of the Jin family, Jin Shengfei had seen all kinds of people. But this was the first time he cared so much about someone!
I really didn’t expect that... Jin Shengfei likes this, the taste is really unique.
Chi Miao: "You should know why we are here."
Fatty Jin nodded and placed a jade pendant on the table.
"This is what you came here for, the dragon-patterned jade."
The texture of the dragon-patterned jade is extremely translucent, and the overall pattern is exceptionally exquisite and beautiful. The level of craftsmanship can be described as supernatural, with a hint of warm spirituality floating faintly on it.
This spiritual power...what a wonderful feeling.
Gou Shi System: "This jade pendant is a good thing!"
Chi Miao: "Why do you have a role again?"
Gou Shi System: "I don't know, I just feel that this jade pendant is a good thing, would you like to try it?"
Chi Miao: "How do I try this?"
Gou Shi System: "You can hurt yourself and see if I can heal your wounds."
Chi Miao: "I feel like you are fooling me, but I have no evidence."
But it is true... if the system says it is a good thing, then it is most likely a good thing, such as the astonishingly powerful Danwen last time.
Chi Miao took out a dagger in front of everyone and slashed his wrist decisively.
Immediately, blood flowed out.
Everyone: "??!"
Then, Chi Miao suddenly moved the wound towards the spiritual essence of the jade pendant.
When the warm spiritual energy approached Chi Miao's wound.
Chi Miao's wounds healed at a speed visible to the naked eye!
In the blink of an eye, Chi Miao's arm was intact.
Everyone was shocked: "What the hell?!"
Even Fatty Jin was dumbfounded: "It...it works so well?!"
Everyone knows that this jade has the power to save lives and summon spirits.
But isn’t it too exaggerated to say that the effect is so good?
The injury was healed in the blink of an eye.
Then, if you wear this jade pendant, as long as you are not turned into ashes, wouldn't you be immortal? !
Chi Miao narrowed his eyes and said, "No... Can anyone lend me your arm?"
Everyone, you look at me, I look at you.
Finally, Ying Wuhuo stretched out his hand and said calmly: "Let me do it."
Chi Miao slashed Ying Wuhuo's hand without hesitation, and then put the dragon-patterned jade next to his hand.
Strange things happened.
The wound on Ying Wuhuo's hand did not heal immediately!
Chi Miao asked: "How do you feel?"
Ying Wuhuo had no expression on his face: "...It hurts."
Chi Miao: "...I'm asking if you feel you've recovered!"
Ying Wuhuo shook his head.
Everyone was puzzled. Was the jade pendant malfunctioning again?
Chi Miao decisively stabbed himself on the back of his hand again.
The jade pendant healed her quickly.
Everyone: "Huh??"
No, what's wrong with this jade pendant? It's discriminatory treatment!
