Chapter 369: Sold to Jiangnan, sold to Nanjue, sold to 36 Buddhist countries!
"They want all... all of them! Are you crazy?! Ha... do these little thieves really think they are immortals?"
Eunuch Jin Luo had a defiant look on his face and muttered to himself.
As the deputy secretary of the Imperial Household Department, before he came to present the treasure, Zhuoqing had already explained clearly that Wen Yanzhao, Baili Dongjun and others pretended to be immortals and extorted treasures.
Now Baili Dongjun is asking for an exorbitant amount of money. If they are really allowed to take away all the treasures, it will be a huge loss for the palace!
Others may not know the value of these treasures, but Jin Luo knows very well the value of these treasures in the inner treasury.
The twelve items on the treasure appraisal table alone are enough to buy four or five wealthy prefectures, not to mention that one of them is the blood-tooth seal that was most beloved by the previous emperor!
Baili Dongjun tilted his ear slightly, obviously hearing Jin Luo's rude words.
A hint of anger rose in his heart, and then he suddenly turned around, his eyes flashing with sternness and demanding:
"You damn eunuch, what did you just say?!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Baili Dongjun took a step, his brocade robe rustling, and he flew several feet away in one step, landing steadily in front of Jin Luo.
Jin Luo was stunned. Before he could even blink, Baili Dongjun was already half a foot in front of him!
"Immortal... Immortal Lord... I didn't say anything, I beg you to open... open... open..."
As soon as Jin Luo begged for mercy, he felt as if every limb of his body was soaked in coldness. When he looked again, Baili Dongjun was surrounded by cold wind and snow for more than three meters!
Looking at Jin Luo, who was wearing the same purple robe and ceremonial crown in front of him, Baili Dongjun immediately thought of Zhuo Qing, who had framed Ye Dingzhi's family!
At this moment, his anger grew even stronger, and he cursed:
"How dare you call us thieves, you scoundrel? You are a rootless eunuch who has ruined the government and framed famous ministers and generals. You deserve to die!"
Seeing that fire was almost spitting out of Baili Dongjun's eyes, everyone in Qianjintai, except Sikong Changfeng and Yin Luoxia who sat still, was so scared that they all retreated!
That day, the four of them performed miracles in the sky above Apocalypse City, and many people saw it.
Now that the immortal is enraged, if he were to strike, everyone on Qianjintai would be in danger...
Baili Dongjun didn't want to kill anyone, but he really wanted to teach the person in front of him a lesson, so he mobilized his internal energy to cover the meridians throughout his body.
Suddenly, a huge snow tornado appeared out of thin air with Baili Dongjun as the center!
Jin Luo cursed himself a thousand times in his heart for being so mean. He knelt on the ground and kowtowed, begging for mercy...
But as soon as the snow tornado formed, it swept him in. In an instant, Jin Luo's whole body felt like it was falling into an ice cave, and every inch of his skin and meridians were destroyed!
Sikong Changfeng sat far away on the pavilion, stuffing grapes into his mouth one by one. He mumbled something incoherently, as if watching a play:
"Hey! Little eunuch, oh little eunuch, why did you go to provoke that little bully Baili Dongjun? Hey, you really don't know what's good for you!"
Within a few breaths, the snow tornado dissipated in the lobby, and everything seemed to have returned to calm.
Baili Dongjun glanced at Jin Luo, whose clothes were tattered and whose face was ashen, lying on the ground, and cursed with disgust: "I wanted to kill you, but your meridians are all broken now. I'm sure you will become a useless person in the future. You can no longer help that bastard Zhuoqing to do evil!"
After saying this, he flashed back to the treasure appraisal table, picked up a golden cup with a Chiwen pattern and asked Yin Luoxia with greed in his eyes:
"Sister Fairy, this thing is so exquisitely made. I think it can be sold for at least... 50,000 taels!"
Yin Luoxia was amused by Baili Dongjun's contrast and laughed out loud. She said jokingly, "Master Baili, you seem to be obsessed with money now!"
"But I still have to say this: you! You've made a mistake again!"
Baili Dongjun was startled and asked in surprise: "Ah (O_o)??!"
Yin Luoxia took the golden cup with a Chiwen pattern and turned it over with the bottom facing up. On the golden base were clearly engraved the inscriptions "For personal use by Emperor Tianwu Xiao Yi".
"See, Junior Master Baili, this is the wine glass that Emperor Xiao Yi of Beili once used! Just for this, it must be worth at least one million or eight hundred thousand taels!"
Baili Dongjun scratched his head awkwardly, snatched the Chiwen golden cup and stuffed it into his already bulging arms, saying, "Oh my! I never expected that Xiao Chongjing really spent a fortune this time, even taking out his ancestor's wine glass!"
When everyone at Qianjintai saw Baili Dongjun's two different faces, and in an instant he turned the eunuch Jin Luo into a useless person, they were so frightened that they broke out in cold sweats and stood there without daring to say a word.
At this moment, the crowd gathered at the door was suddenly dispersed by a great force, and then a red light flashed into the lobby!
Sa!
Wen Yanzhao, with a playful smile on his face, landed in front of the treasure appraisal table and just saw Baili Dongjun stuffing a jade disk the size of a potcake into his sleeve.
He chuckled and reached out to grab Baili Dongjun: "Little Baili, you don't look like an immortal at all, you look more like a reincarnated bandit!"
Yin Luoxia was also amused by Wen Yanzhao's words and smiled brightly. She echoed, "Young Master Wen, look at Junior Master Baili's chest..."
Baili Dongjun tried his best to hide his chest, which had already bulged beyond recognition, and hesitantly explained, "I'm not greedy. Hundreds of thousands of people in Xueyue City are counting on me as their city lord. In a few days, we'll all be eating tree bark and digging up grass roots..."
Wen Yanzhao did not stop him. He stretched out his hand and released his internal energy. The dozen or so rare treasures remaining on the treasure appraisal table were all stored in his storage space.
Including the jade disk in Baili Dongjun's hand that he had not yet put into his sleeve.
Everyone was shocked when they saw this scene!
So many treasures of various sizes and shapes were made to vanish into thin air by Wen Yanzhao. Anyone could only sigh inwardly - "Miracle!"
Baili Dongjun was used to his cousin's skills, so he pulled Yin Luoxia over without saying anything and flew up to the platform.
Wen Yanzhao turned around and faced the officials from the Ministry of Rites and the Honglu Temple, and said with a faint smile:
"I'm glad that your mortal emperor is sensible about this treasure offering... But that little eunuch's rude words have displeased the North Pole Immortal Lord. This is just a lesson for him!"
Cui Yinsheng, a doctor in the Ministry of Rites, and Luo Long, a junior minister in the Honglu Temple, were as if they had been granted amnesty upon hearing this. Seeing that Wen Yanzhao had no intention of causing trouble for them, they all knelt on the ground.
"Thank you for your kindness, Immortal Lord... Thank you, Immortal Lord..."
Wen Yanzhao didn't say much. He reached into his arms, rubbed them, and took out a few round brown "pills":
"This is the reward I promised you. Take it!"
Upon hearing this, Cui Yinsheng and Luo Long looked up at the same time, only to see several "pills" being thrown towards them by Wen Yanzhao. They hurriedly reached out to catch them.
"A mortal only needs one to ascend to eternal bliss and prolong their life. Take it back and report!"
The two were overjoyed and hurriedly put away the "pill". After expressing their gratitude, they led their men back home.
……
Half an hour later.
Qianjintai returned to peace. Wen Yanzhao and the other three took off their clothes and gathered again in Baili Dongjun's guest room.
"Cousin...hahahaha...what kind of elixir did you give them? Can it really prolong life?"
Baili Dongjun's eyes curved into a crescent moon as he smiled.
Wen Yanzhao's eyes were cunning, and he smirked: "Tsk! Xiao Baili, you are too naive. I will never give them such good things!"
Sikong Changfeng seemed to have seen through Wen Yanzhao's thoughts long ago, and said with a sly smile: "Cousin, you haven't taken a bath for a while, right? Could it be that those pills are..."
Hearing this, Baili Dongjun put away his smile and looked at Wen Yanzhao with a strange expression: "Wait... Cousin, you won't..."
"You...can't, at least you shouldn't... Ugh! Ugh!"
Watching Baili Dongjun lean over and retching, Wen Yanzhao laughed heartily: "Little Spear Fairy is right. I, your cousin, have indeed not showered in a while. Tsk tsk tsk tsk, it's mainly because I've been too busy lately!"
"Ha ha ha ha……"
After hearing what Wen Yanzhao said, except for Baili Dongjun who was retching, Sikong Changfeng pulled Feng Qiuyu, and Yin Luoxia leaned on Baili Dongjun's shoulder and laughed!
The room is filled with a cheerful atmosphere!
"Alright, alright... stop laughing!"
Baili Dongjun took a few gulps of tea and drank.
Everyone stopped laughing and looked at Baili Dongjun who had a serious face. Baili Dongjun looked around and said seriously:
"We have collected quite a few treasures, but the question is, where are we going to cash them in?"
Wen Yanzhao slumped in his chair, as if waiting for someone else to speak.
Sikong Changfeng was the first to suggest: "Sell it to a rich man, what else?"
Baili Dongjun rolled his eyes at Sikong Changfeng. "It's a losing commodity, so why not sell it to someone rich? But it seems our identities have been discovered by Xiao Chongjing, and Xueyue City can't hold out for much longer. Besides, the imperial guards in Tianqi City have been mobilized frequently in recent days, so it's not a good place to stay for long. Where can we sell these things?"
Yin Luoxia had a sheepskin map in her hand, with clear drawings of the Northern Heavens, Northern Li, the Great Desert Grassland, Southern Jue, and the Thirty-Six Western Buddhist Realms...
She gently unfolded the map, placed it in the middle of the table and said:
"Master Baili is right. We can't sell these things in Tianqi City, but we can sell them somewhere else!"
Baili Dongjun stared at the map intently and asked, "These things are all rare and valuable treasures. How many people can afford such a high price?"
Wen Yanzhao stuffed a handful of top-quality peacock gall into his mouth and said while chewing:
"this is very simple!"
"The richest people in Beili are all in Jiangnan. The capital of Nanjue is also home to many royal relatives, nobles, celebrities and wealthy businessmen. The Western Buddhist countries are full of foreign monks, and there are also many famous and ancient temples that are home to the richest people!"
"so……"
At this point, Baili Dongjun's eyes lit up and he immediately continued:
"We can sell it to Jiangnan, to Nanjue, and to the Thirty-Six Buddha Kingdoms in the West!"
