Wangyue Tower is divided into two floors: upper and lower.
The lower floor is the sales area, and the upper floor is the acquisition area.
Zhen Nantian led Xia Qingchen directly to a secret room on the upper floor full of instruments, where several assistants were lazily yawning and bored.
In sharp contrast, Xia Qingchen, a person who made a special trip to sell, was turned away and left in anger.
Seeing Zhen Nantian approaching, the assistants were all excited and immediately pretended to be busy and lowered their heads to do things.
"Where's the big shopkeeper?" Zhen Nantian asked coldly.
An assistant said with a guilty conscience: "The big shopkeeper is meeting important guests."
Zhen Nantian looked towards the luxurious secret room on the side, and saw that the secret room door was tightly closed, and a sign with the words "Do Not Disturb" was hung outside the door.
"Huh!" He walked over without saying a word and patted the stone door with his big hand: "Come out!"
After a while, the stone door opened, and a bald old man with disheveled clothes and bloodshot eyes stood at the door with a strong spirit.
Judging from the marks on his face, he clearly slept in a secret room.
Zhen Nantian saw through it without saying anything, and pointed at Xia Qingchen: "This is my friend. If he wants to sell something to Wangyue Tower, you can keep your eye on it."
The big shopkeeper was disturbed from his dream, so he was naturally in a bad mood. He looked at Xia Qingchen expressionlessly: "Come in."
He turned around and walked into the secret room first, while Zhen Nantian patted Xia Qingchen on the shoulder: "Go in."
The shopkeepers of Wangyue Tower have their own division of labor and are not allowed to interfere with each other.
Zhen Nantian is responsible for the external affairs, while the big shopkeeper is responsible for the internal affairs.
Appraisal of the value of the purchased items is the responsibility of the shopkeeper, and it is one of the most important responsibilities. Zhen Nantian is not allowed to interfere.
Otherwise, the tomb keeper will pursue the case, and at least he may be fined with black moon coins, and at worst he may be fired from the position of shopkeeper.
"Yes." Xia Qingchen gave him a comforting look and stepped inside.
There is something else inside the secret room. It doesn't look big from the outside, but it's half the size of a hall inside.
Moreover, the hall is divided into ten compartments, large and small, and in each compartment there is a specialized treasure appraiser who is appraising various goods.
"No. 10, go by yourself." The big shopkeeper said expressionlessly.
Xia Qingchen thought it was the chief shopkeeper who personally appraised it, but it didn't seem to be the case.
"What are you doing standing around here? Only the ones with good value will be handled by me personally." The big shopkeeper impatiently tossed his sleeves and returned to a bedroom.
Xia Qingchen didn't mind his cold attitude and came to the cubicle No. 10 he mentioned.
There was a relatively young treasure appraiser inside, appraising several objects on the table.
"What do you want to appraise?" The treasure appraiser's attitude was very kind, he put down his work and said pleasantly.
Xia Qingchen took out a blood snake stone the size of half a coffin lid and placed it on the table: "This."
The treasure appraiser stood up and looked at the rather large half of the coffin lid, looking carefully.
After looking at it for a long time, he seemed to have figured out something. He took a sharp knife and scratched the lid of the coffin, scraping off a layer of blue-black dirt, revealing the blood-red stone inside.
"Blood snake stone?" The treasure appraiser was surprised. He took professional tools and removed all the dirt on the half coffin lid.
After cleaning it up, the treasure appraiser's eyes were full of horror: "Such a huge blood snake stone? And the most rare and precious thing is that it is actually a whole!"
Blood snake stones are usually distributed in scattered form, and one as big as a thumb is considered to be of the highest quality.
What about now?
The size of half a coffin lid can be used to refine many large hard nirvana vessels.
This thing is something that several Abyss Lords cannot help but be tempted by!
The treasure appraiser looked excited. This is definitely the most expensive collection he has encountered in recent years.
"Sir, could you please wait a moment and allow me to hand this item over to the chief shopkeeper Changyan?" The treasure appraiser was so excited that he couldn't express his words.
Xia Qingchen hesitated.
It is not good to have such a precious thing out of sight after all: "Can't he come in person?"
The treasure appraiser looked helpless: "The big shopkeeper is..."
He was hesitant to speak, and as a big shopkeeper, if he bothered him, he would be scolded easily.
"Sir, please rest assured, this is Wangyue Tower, and it is in the Treasure Appraisal Hall. There will never be any damage to the treasure appraisal items," the treasure appraiser said.
Xia Qingchen was not worried about it being damaged. The blood snake stone was so hard that it would not be easy for ordinary people to damage it deliberately.
He was worried that something might go wrong with it.
However, thinking that Zhen Nantian was outside, he felt a little relieved.
"Okay, but give me an answer as soon as possible." Xia Qingchen said, calmly stroking the back of the coffin lid.
The treasure appraiser was overjoyed and immediately took the stone away and sent it to the bedroom.
"Big shopkeeper." The treasure appraiser knocked on the door cautiously, fearing that the big shopkeeper would scold him.
The bedroom was filled with the residual smell of alcohol.
The big shopkeeper was lying on the stone bed, feeling very tired. Hearing the sound, he opened his bloodshot eyes and asked angrily: "What's going on again?"
Being harassed again and again, I couldn't even get a good night's sleep!
The treasure appraiser trembled and said quickly: "Reporting to the big shopkeeper, there is a priceless thing that needs your own eyes."
The big shopkeeper wiped his face feebly and said angrily: "Trash, you have been with me for so many years, and I still have to take care of this little thing."
He sat up, put on his clothes and opened the door, with a stern face: "What is it."
"That's it." The treasure appraiser said with a little difficulty, holding half of the coffin lid tightly in his arms.
Blood Snake Stone is not only hard but also extremely heavy.
The big shopkeeper glanced listlessly, but when he looked over, his pupils couldn't help but shrink: "Is this?"
Although he is lazy, he may be able to become a big shopkeeper, but he still has a few skills.
He recognized it immediately!
"How is it possible that there is such a huge blood snake stone?" The chief shopkeeper's tiredness swept away, and he held half of the coffin lid with great energy.
Because of the force, the treasure appraiser almost fell to the ground.
The red light of the blood snake stone made the big shopkeeper's face look particularly excited.
"Really, it's really a blood snake stone! It's unbelievable!" The big shopkeeper's eyesight was several times better than that of the treasure appraiser, and he immediately realized that this was not a priceless thing.
Rather, it is a priceless treasure!
Not to mention that the Yuan Lords are tempted, even the tombkeepers are eager for it!
If you hand it over to them, how much reward will you get?
"Come in!" He immediately turned and entered the bedroom, holding the blood snake stone in his arms without letting go, and asked the treasure appraiser seriously: "Which batch of appraisals is it?"
He looked thoughtful.
If you are a person with a low status, you should buy the Blood Snake Stone at a low price no matter what.
If you have a high status, you can only rely on negotiation.
The treasure appraiser was surprised and asked: "Didn't the big shopkeeper tell me to come to me for appraisal?"
Hearing this, the big shopkeeper looked shocked: "You mean, that young man in plain clothes?"
"Yes!" The treasure appraiser also gestured at Xia Qingchen's height and appearance.
