470: Chapter 469: Magic Artifact 470: Chapter 469: Magic Artifact The shop owner hadn’t paid much attention before, but now, looking again, he realized the jar seed to have suddenly beco sowhat more gorgeous, completely different from before, which left him rather taken aback.
“How did you do that?” Xu Xiaoqing couldn’t help but continue to ask.
Ning Fan was carefully inspecting the jar in his hands.
Hearing her, he simply smiled, but after the recent probe, Ning Fan had understood that if he infused just a bit more True Qi, the jar’s disguise would be completely removed.
However, it was clearly not a good idea to do so here, so Ning Fan planned to wait until he was outside.
Just then, a man dressed in a Tang suit not far away happened to witness this scene.
His eyes suddenly brightened, and he quickly walked over.
“Young friend, may I have a look at the object in your hands?” The man in the Tang suit stood before Ning Fan, staring at the jar in Ning Fan’s hands for a few seconds before raising his head and carefully asking.
Ning Fan turned his head to look at the man in the Tang suit.
This man, with his robust figure and steady stride, had an air of authority and majesty that only cos with high rank, yet paradoxically, he exuded an overall sense of scholarly elegance.
Ning Fan was certain, the man’s identity was definitely not ordinary.
He usually had an accurate judgnt of people and knew that the man’s eagerness for treasures prompted his request.
Ning Fan didn’t mind in his heart.
But seeing Ning Fan hesitate, the man also realized his request was a bit inappropriate.
It wasn’t easy for soone to find a treasure, and as a complete stranger, it was sowhat abrupt of him to ask to see it.
“This…
young brother, I was rude.
It’s just that…”
“It’s okay, have a look.” Ning Fan casually passed the item in his hand to the man.
The man’s heart skipped a beat, he hesitated for a second before carefully taking the jar, gratitude towards Ning Fan’s action stirring within him.
In this business, there had always been a rule called “goods never leave the hands,” which ant that in transactions or in situations like this when inspecting goods, typically one party would place the object on the counter for the other party to pick up.
This was to prevent accidents that could lead to disputes over responsibility should the item be damaged—it would then be troubleso to determine fault.
However, Ning Fan seed to not have this concern at all, which made the man feel that Ning Fan trusted him, when in fact, Ning Fan simply didn’t know or care about such things.
The man carefully took the jar and examined it closely, his eyes growing increasingly bright.
Having imrsed himself in this field for many years, he lacked cultivation abilities, but his judgnt was sharp.
He couldn’t sense the True Qi flowing on its surface, but by instinct he felt the item was extraordinary, and its aura gave him a refreshing feeling.
Long-standing habits and experience allowed the man to instantly realize that this item could very well be a Magic Artifact!
For most people, if you ntioned Magic Artifacts, their instinct might be to think it was so object with a touch of mystical exaggeration, similar to consecrated religious tools in Buddhism.
But the man had genuinely seen so powerful items whose energy could be described as unfathomably strong—those were real Magic Artifacts.
Although he didn’t yet know the exact function and ability of the jar in his hands, he was nearly certain—this was undoubtedly a Magic Artifact.
Across from Ning Fan, seeing the man, he suddenly felt a sense of familiarity.
He hadn’t recalled who it was at first, but after staring intently for a while, he suddenly rembered and, with a jolt, bowed deeply, saying, “Mr.
Han, I didn’t expect it to be you.”
The man known as Mr.
Han glanced at the owner, offered a slight smile in response to the greeting, and then looked back to Ning Fan, handing back the object in his hand.
“Young man, may I ask how much you paid for this item?” Mr.
Han inquired with curiosity.
When he hurried over earlier, he had seen that the transaction was already successful.
Encountering a Magic Artifact was rare, and he was naturally curious about the closing price.
“A thousand yuan,” Ning Fan casually replied.
“What?” Mr.
Han’s eyes widened instantly.
A Magic Artifact for a thousand yuan?
“What’s wrong?” Ning Fan asked, sowhat puzzled.
“Nothing, nothing, ha ha…
Young man, you have a keen eye and quite so talent,” Mr.
Han said, his expression a bit embarrassed.
This was an outrageously lucky find!
“It’s just good luck,” Ning Fan remarked nonchalantly.
“In this business, sotis luck is part of one’s strength,” Mr.
Han said with a smile.
After pausing for a mont, and after much consideration, Mr.
Han continued, “I’m quite interested in the item you have there, young man.
I wonder if you’d be willing to part with it and sell it to ?”
“Not selling,” Ning Fan said, without a mont’s hesitation.
Money was no different from waste paper to Ning Fan; he had no use for it.
And with the True Qi flowing through the object, he hadn’t figured out its purpose yet, but it was definitely no ordinary item.
How could Ning Fan possibly trade it for so useless money?
Mr.
Han looked sowhat disappointed, but this was within his expectations.
However, he didn’t seem ready to give up so easily, still staring intently at the jar in Ning Fan’s hand.
The shop owner across from them was rather surprised, feeling an unsettling intuition.
This Mr.
Han, known as Han Li in the business, was a famous, prominent figure, and what he was most famous for was his sharp eye.
Events of him finding treasures had happened countless tis before.
There was a saying: If Mr.
Han Li set his eyes on sothing, it was definitely a treasure!
At one point, if Han Li took interest in an item, the shop would basically refuse to sell it, opting instead to spend a considerable effort to properly appraise it afterward.
But now, Mr.
Han had taken an interest in the broken pot from before?
What was going on?
The shop owner looked at the pot in Ning Fan’s hand, puzzled.
Could it be that they were so unlucky to have hastily sold an item that turned out to be a treasure?
Could it be possible?
“How about this, young man.
I’m willing to offer 500,000 yuan to buy that pot from you.
You bought it for a thousand just now, and with this 500,000, you’d definitely make a tidy profit.
What do you say?” Mr.
Han tentatively asked.
For a personage like him, swamped with more money than he could spend, he was naturally willing to buy an item he fancied.
Ning Fan had acquired the item for a thousand yuan, and before it had even ward in his hands, soone was offering 500,000 yuan, almost making a profit of fifty thousand tis his investnt, which made the initial cost virtually negligible.
This would be an incredibly lucky break for anyone!
But Ning Fan decisively shook his head, “Never mind, I’m not interested in money, only in treasures.”
