In Canglan City, Jiang Han once again arrived at the private room number one. This time, Jin Ye approached him with a beaming smile, holding a fine wine. "Brother Jiang, you've found another treasure! I promise to give you an excellent price this time; I'm counting on you, my old friend!"
"It's only been a few days since the last time!" Jiang Han waved his hand dismissively, signaling Jin Ye to take the wine away.
He opened the box and revealed the White Jade Sword. "I believe this sword is worth far more than the previous items!"
Previously, Jiang Han had presented various women's jewelry, men's rings, and antique vases. However, those items paled in comparison to what Su Qianxue had given him—the White Jade Sword.
As the Zitan Wood Box opened, Jin Ye's eyes widened in astonishment at the sight of the White Jade Sword. "This sword is truly magnificent! It must have been crafted from the finest Yang Zhi Yu. The blade is nearly a meter long; I've never encountered such a large piece of Yang Zhi Yu before!"
The auction value of this White Jade Sword undoubtedly surpassed all the previous items combined. The treasures Jiang Han had brought before had already elevated their auction house's reputation, attracting numerous wealthy antique collectors to participate in their auctions. Now, with the addition of the White Jade Sword, they would secure a top position in the industry.
"Is it convenient for you to process the payment, Jin Ye?" Jiang Han asked with a smile.
"Of course it's convenient!" Jin Ye swallowed hard and quickly added, "How about seven and a half? What do you think of that price?"
"That works!" Jiang Han nodded lightly with a chuckle.
This price was half higher than last time, which was typical for Jiang Han; if it were anyone else, they might not even get that much!
"Alright then, I'll give you seven. No matter when you come back next time, I'll personally attend to you. If you have good items, make sure to think of us first!" Jin Ye practically worshipped Jiang Han as if he were a father figure.
Jiang Han was indeed Jin Ye's benefactor. Moreover, this benefactor continuously brought forth various treasures, each one more precious than the last. Especially this White Jade Sword—it had never been seen before and was likely one of a kind in this realm.
Jiang Han also appreciated Jin Ye's straightforwardness; there was no need for petty negotiations over profits. Soon enough, Jin Ye cheerfully wrote out a check and respectfully handed it to Jiang Han.
After leaving the auction house, Jiang Han found the manufacturer of Compressed Biscuit and spent over a hundred thousand to procure a large quantity of it. Following that, he went to a factory that produced ornamental swords and purchased two hundred High Carbon Steel Eight-Sided Han Swords, along with a substantial amount of instant noodles and various composite bows, before finally returning.
In the capital city, three days quickly passed. During this time, Langya Prince Che Chengyun was constantly searching for Lin Qingyue. After their first meeting, where Lin Qingyue sensed Che Chengyun's concern that she might kneel and apologize to Jiang Han, she felt an overwhelming anger. She believed that Che Chengyun did not understand her; as a renowned general, she would never apologize to Jiang Han over something as trivial as Compressed Biscuit!
Initially, Che Chengyun felt reassured, but within a day, he grew anxious again about Lin Qingyue possibly seeking out Jiang Han and sought her out once more. This relentless pursuit left Lin Qingyue feeling frustrated and unable to stay at the Lin residence any longer.
During these three days, Jiang Han's shop continued to sell Compressed Biscuit as usual. However, they only sold one thousand portions each day, with each portion priced at two coins. The common people were eager to buy them, but various factions and generals rushed in to purchase them all, leaving no opportunity for the common folk. Additionally, during this time when Jiang Han was away, Yan Dong's two women could only accept the situation as it was.
As the three days came to an end, Lin Qingyue stood with her guards at a distance across from Jiang Han's shop, staring intently at Yan Dong's two women. She couldn't help but murmur, "It seems they have gained some status; even their maidservants are so beautiful. Jiang Han must be using these two women to warm his bed."
The guards beside her heard this and were puzzled by such thoughts coming from Lin Qingyue. After all, what did it have to do with them if Jiang Han used these two women for such purposes? Was Lin Qingyue feeling jealous? Or had she developed feelings for Jiang Han because of the Compressed Biscuit?
While Lin Qingyue kept watch outside, Su Qianxue was already seated inside the shop, sipping tea and waiting for Jiang Han's return. This time, Princess Piao Xue had also come but was dressed in plain clothes, presenting herself as a refined young lady from a wealthy family while enjoying her tea.
Yan Dong looked at both of his masters in the shop and felt anxious. " Shopkeeper Jiang, why haven't you returned yet?"
The Emperor and the Princess have already arrived! And your former fiancée is outside the shop as well? Oh no, Che Chengyun is here too!
Yan Dong saw Che Chengyun leading a group over, but to his surprise, Che Chengyun didn’t enter the shop. Instead, he walked over to Lin Qingyue. From a distance, Yan Dong couldn’t hear what Che Chengyun and Lin Qingyue were saying, but it looked like they were having a disagreement. Lin Qingyue suddenly shook off Che Chengyun's hand and walked into the shop to sit down!
Yan Dong looked back; in the front yard of the shop sat Lin Qingyue, the female general, while in the back yard were the Princess and the Empress. Thankfully, there were various curtains and partitions in between; otherwise, things would have gotten messy today!
Shopkeeper Jiang, where on earth are you? Why haven’t you come back yet? Yan Dong felt a surge of anxiety. Then he saw Che Chengyun enter the shop as well, and he was taken aback—how did Langya Prince end up here too?
After entering, Che Chengyun noticed Lin Qingyue sitting there, clearly upset. Even though she was a general, she was still just an eighteen or nineteen-year-old girl and naturally prone to mood swings. He turned to Yan Dong and asked, “Where’s Shopkeeper? I need to find him.”
Yan Dong was momentarily stunned. After glancing at Lin Qingyue and then back at Che Chengyun, he speculated whether Lin General knew that Shopkeeper Jiang had some Compressed Biscuits and wanted to reconcile. But since Che Chengyun was here, it seemed he was feeling embarrassed about it.
She awkwardly replied, “Prince, Shopkeeper has gone out and won’t be back for a while! Just so you know, Lin Qingyue has already broken off her engagement with him. He should know what to do and what not to do! Also, regarding the Compressed Biscuits, I’d like to procure some as well. What price are you offering for them?”
After saying this, Che Chengyun thought for a moment and added, “If Jiang Han is willing to sell, we can negotiate a good price for the Compressed Biscuits.”
Yan Dong's cheeks twitched. Seriously? Your current fiancé is asking your former fiancé for supplies—what happened to your dignity?
