Supreme Magical Concubine Is Wickedly Strong - Chapter 39

Chapter 39: Young Master of the Yun Family

“This is a Soul Jade of high quality and it’s almost free of any impurities. It was formed about three hundred years ago from Pomegranate Jade that’s almost similar to a Blood Soul Jade. Because Pomegranate Jade is so rare and exquisite, many nobles like to use it to craft jewelry or inlay weapons. It’s a very popular type of Soul Jade.” The old man with white hair told Qiu Nuo. “If you’re willing to put the Soul Jade up for auction at Qiwu Pavilion, I can assure you that it’ll sell for at least twenty thousand gold coins!”

A cacophony of boos erupted from all around.

It was shocking enough that this Soul Jade could be sold for twenty thousand gold coins even though it wasn’t a blood-red jade.

“Alright!” Qiu Nuo smiled.

She already had the thousand-year Soul Jade that her mother had left to her. This was of little use to her.

“I’ll arrange it for you right away!” The old man let out an excited expression the moment he heard that Qiu Nuo was willing to put the Soul Jade up for auction at Qiwu Pavilion, and he walked through a hidden door behind him.

Under his arrangement, Qiu Nuo followed a young and beautiful attendant into a lounge.

She placed some nuts and snacks on the table in front of Qiu Nuo. “Miss, Elder Lao will be right back. Please wait for a moment.”

Qiu Nuo nodded, picking up a piece of fruit as she sized up the room.

She had to admit that Qiwu Pavilion was indeed worthy of being the largest exhibition hall in the entire Luojia Empire. Just a simple lounge was decorated exquisitely and luxuriously.

The floor was paved with white and glistening parquet, and all the furniture had been made of the highest quality fir wood.

The cost of such a lounge was probably over a hundred thousand gold coins!

…

Before long, she heard footsteps from outside.

Qiu Nuo looked up to see Elder Xu and another man in white enter the room.

The man looked no more than twenty and had a delicate face that held angular features. His gaze was as warm as the spring breeze, and one couldn’t help but take a liking to him.

“Young Master, this is the lady who wants to sell the Pomegranate Jade.” Elder Xu bowed slightly to the man dressed in white.

Qiu Nuo was a little surprised upon hearing that.

All she wanted to do was to sell a piece of Soul Jade. Why had this old man brought his young master over?

Qiwu Pavilion belonged to the Yun family, so did that mean that this nobleman in white was one of the young masters of the Yun family?

“Miss, because the price of your item exceeds ten thousand gold coins, our young master will be handling this transaction himself.” Elder Xu turned to Qiu Nuo and explained.

“Oh.” Qiu Nuo gave a simple reply and turned her attention back to the young master of the Yun family. “What’s the process of an auction?”

“You just have to sign a contract.” Yun Xiu smiled gently, retrieved a green token from his storage ring, and handed it over to her. “I’m here to pass you this.”

Qiu Nuo received it and realized that a gentle aura flowed within the token, although she didn’t know what it was made of.

The token was inscribed with the word “Qi”.

“Is… is this the Qiwu Pavilion’s VIP token?” Qiu Nuo raised her brows.

“That’s right.” Yun Xiu smiled. “In Qiwu Pavilion, as long as the transaction reaches ten thousand gold coins, whether it’s a sale or a purchase, you’ll be entitled to our Qiwu Pavilion’s VIP token.”

Qiu Nuo nodded in astonishment. No wonder the Yun family’s young master had attended to her personally. He had meant to give her the VIP token.

This wasn’t something an ordinary person had the right to issue!

“Thank you, then.” Qiu Nuo grasped the token within her embrace, but she suddenly looked up again. “I wonder if you have any storage rings for sale.”

“Of course, how much space would you need?” Yun Xiu asked.

“Just give me the cheapest one you have. As for the cost, you can deduct it from the proceeds from the Pomegranate Jade.”

“Alright.” Yun Xiu nodded. “The auction will be starting soon. You’d better make your way there early.”

“Yes.”

After Yun Xiu left, the attendant brought a pamphlet to Qiu Nuo.

“Miss, these are the items that were just sent here for the auction today. Would you like to take a look?”

“Hand it over!” Qiu Nuo received it and analyzed it carefully. There were really all sorts of strange things inside.

The majority of the items were pills and ingredients, and the number of martial arts and skills were so few that it was pitiful. Moreover, they were all of the lowest levels.

There were even a few items that were so rare that even Qiwu Pavilion could probably not identify or describe with words, like “a red mineral with white spots” or “a mysterious black wooden plaque”.
