Chapter Eighty Return to the Auction House

  Cheng Zihan rushed out, Qin Kexiu and Han Jincheng were already there, several people gathered in front of a small stall.

  Cheng Zihan saw that several good people had already begun to notice the commotion here, and if it weren't for the fear of Han Jincheng's terrifying aura, they would have probably gone forward to check out the situation directly.

  Cheng Zihan arrived when Han Jingchen made way for a passage and let her go inside to take a look.

  Han Yi was crouching on the ground, holding a tree that was about the thickness of an adult's calf. The trunk was straight and the bark was dark brown, with deep longitudinal cracks forming long, thin pieces. The pinnate compound leaves were 15-30 cm long; the stipules fell off early; there were 3-5 pairs of small leaves, ovate, 6-11 cm long, 4-5 cm wide, tapering to a pointed tip, rounded at the base, and hairless on both sides. The leaf veins were slender. The shape of this tree and its leaves looked very similar to those of the purple sandalwood tree. But purple sandalwood is a very precious species, how could the organizers have missed it? How could they let someone sell it here?

  Cheng Zihan was somewhat perplexed, picked up the sapling and looked at it carefully several times, but whether it was the fragrance of the tree, the leaves, the trunk, or the external characteristics, they were all identical to those of a purple sandalwood tree.

  She looked at Han Yi and saw that his face was also somewhat hesitant, as if he wasn't quite sure either.

  Han Yi is most knowledgeable about trees, flowers and grass. If he can't tell them apart, it's likely that others won't be able to either.

  For a moment, everyone was silent.

  At this time, the shopkeeper was getting impatient and started yelling: "Hey, are you guys going to buy or not? If not, then get out of here quickly and don't block my business! What's the meaning of setting up a stall and having you people come here to obstruct me? Are you intentionally trying to prevent me from doing business?"

  This guy looks like a roughneck, speaks with a northeastern accent, and appears to be sturdy and robust.

  Cheng Zihan glanced at him faintly, put down the sapling in her hand, and asked coldly: "Oh? Then tell me, how much do you want to sell this sapling for?"

  The man's eyes lit up with interest and he gazed intensely at Cheng Zihang, "A flat price, one million!"

  Cheng Zihan's mouth twitched slightly as she silently looked at him without saying a word.

  "What? It's expensive? Then, then give you a discount, knock off 20%, just 800,000 yuan." The man seemed to be somewhat short of breath, mainly because the sapling had been inspected by the auction house staff and was not precious small-leaf sandalwood, but only looked a bit like sandalwood, so it wasn't very valuable. The other party also told him bluntly that if he were to cheat someone who didn't understand the goods, he might be able to swindle 100,000 or 800,000 yuan, but if he encountered an expert, he might only be able to sell it for a thousand or eight hundred yuan.

  This auction house has been in Wangcheng for some years, and its reputation is naturally unquestionable. The appraisers here are all seasoned experts, so what they say is basically not wrong.

  This sapling was secretly brought back by him when he went to India, thinking that it would be Indian sandalwood and could be sold for a good price after returning home, but as soon as it arrived, it was poured with a basin of cold water.

  Now looking at Cheng Zihan, he is still young and inexperienced in the business. He probably can't tell whether this tree is genuine or not. Just now, Han Yi also looked at it for a long time without being able to determine its authenticity. People in their line of work are always hesitant, afraid of missing out on an opportunity and regretting it later, but also afraid of making a wrong judgment and suffering a loss.

  Cheng Zihan raised an eyebrow and gazed at the man with a hint of a smile that was not quite a smile.

  The current purple sandalwood is very valuable, the one now looks like Indian purple sandalwood, although it can't be confirmed yet, but spending 80,000 to buy it down, actually doesn't lose out.

  The real purple sandalwood is much more expensive than this one.

  This person is also uncertain whether what he has in his hands is genuine or fake, so he doesn't dare to set a high price randomly.

  Cheng Zihan calculated that the diameter of this purple sandalwood is about 15 centimeters, and the price of such a large piece of purple sandalwood is even higher. Moreover, it's still a sapling, which can continue to grow after being planted, and its future value is immeasurable.

  Others may not be able to see the true nature of this tree, but as soon as Cheng Zihan opened her demon eyes, she immediately saw that it was not an ordinary tree at all, but a golden tree shining with golden light.

  It's absolutely a treasure! Just now when she left, I didn't notice it, only to discover it now. I reckon it's because this sapling was hidden among a pile of other saplings, that's why I didn't see it.

  Cheng Zihan was about to agree, and bought it for 80,000. However, Han Yi on the side suddenly spoke up, "Two million, not a penny more."

  The man seemed hesitant, "Add a bit more, 50,000. This is something I brought back from India with great difficulty."

  Han Yi didn't say a word and secretly pulled at Cheng Zihuan, signaling her not to speak.

  Cheng Zihan shut her mouth obediently and looked at Han Yi, it was the first time she found out that this rich young master Han Yi could actually haggle over prices.

  What a wonder!

  The two stood facing each other for a while, and in the end, it was still the shop owner who gave in. "Forget it, forget it, let's just say I'm unlucky. Two hundred thousand is two hundred thousand, here you are."

  Cheng Zihan covered her mouth and smiled secretly. Cheng Hai immediately took out the money and gave it to the other party, then happily carried the sapling away.

  Whether it's real or not, it's not easy to pretend to be a purple sandalwood tree.

  Cheng Zihan used to study wood, so he knew that the most valuable thing in wood is Yīn Chén Mù (a type of fossilized wood), which should be considered a kind of petrified wood, half stone and half wood, but its value is quite considerable. However, the output is also very rare, and it's precisely because of its rarity that it's hard to come by.

  As for sandalwood and agarwood, these are also valuable woods. The value of agarwood goes without saying, it can be said that it is hard to come by.

  The next is like Huang Hua Li, Jin Si Nan are also very precious wood.

  However, wood is not as exaggerated as it will be in the future, and its value is extraordinary. Although the current price is outrageous, it is still within an acceptable range.

  To avoid being discovered by others, Cheng Zihan specially cut a Lolita-style bob. Now that the demon pupil is open, she simply opens it and strolls around everywhere. Whenever she sees something with a golden glow, she goes over to ask about the price. The prices of the surrounding tree saplings and flower seedlings are not high, basically all below 5,000. Cheng Zihan also bought quite a few.

  However, the peripherals were not good, just some decent flowers and saplings. Cheng Zihan only bought them when they were reasonably priced, while ignoring those with exorbitant prices and walking away.

  It's been a pretty good morning so far.

  Because during the auction, all participants cannot leave the mountain, so the purchased flower seedlings and tree seedlings cannot be sent back first.

  Cheng Zihan was afraid they would die, so he directly found Yin Yan.

  Cheng Zihan found Yin Yan at a time when she had accidentally ruined Yin Yan's good deed and felt somewhat embarrassed.

  When Silver Swallow arrived, her face was still flushed, and she had a few touches of a young girl's coquettishness.

  Cheng Zihan was somewhat curious, this sharp woman actually had such a moment too.

  She didn't beat around the bush with Yinyan, and directly got to the point: "Yinyan, I bought a lot of tree saplings and flower seedlings today. I'm worried that if they're not delivered back within five days, it will cause them some harm and lower their survival rate. So, I hope you can arrange for someone to help me send them back to the nursery."

  Ying Yan originally thought that Cheng Zihan had some urgent matter to find herself, but as a result, it was actually for this reason. Thinking of her own good fortune being ruined like this, she couldn't help but feel some resentment in her heart.

  "I thought Miss Cheng had something important to discuss with me." Yin Yan said with a hint of melancholy, her eyes gazing at Cheng Zihuan with a deep and distant look.

  Cheng Zihan ruined the good thing, feeling embarrassed, and hurriedly apologized: "Hehe, I didn't know you were there, don't mind it, at worst, another day I'll let Qin Ke repair accompany you to eat a meal."

  Cheng Zihan is so clever, how can't she see that Yin Yan has a crush on Qin Kexiu.

  Yingyan's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she happily agreed.

  She quickly arranged for someone to send all the flower seedlings and tree seedlings that Cheng Zihan had bought in the morning back to Yihuan Garden.

  After a short rest in the afternoon, Cheng Zihan and Han Yi continued to go shopping on Taobao, while Cheng Hai and Han Jincheng went elsewhere. This mountain is full of treasures everywhere. The organizer also came up with a unique idea this time. As long as the guests who come to participate discover any precious tree seedlings or flower seedlings, even medicinal materials on this mountain, they can take them away at will, and the organizer will not charge the guests a single penny.

  But on the first day, most people were mainly staring at the free trade fair, and no one went to find treasure, which was a bargain for Cheng Hai and Han Jinchen.

  Han Jingchen is a military man by origin, but his research on medicinal plants is innate.

  With Tian Can, a treasure-hunting expert, the group was invincible. In just one afternoon, they found seedlings of over thirty rare and precious plants.

  Cheng Zihan also had a good harvest on his side, and spent a lot of money buying new batches of flower seedlings and tree seedlings, planning to cultivate them well when he returned.

  Cheng Zihan recently plans to establish a cultivation center in the plantation, specializing in cultivating new varieties of tree seedlings and flower seedlings. Once cultivated successfully, they can be put into planting immediately.

  Looking at Cheng Hai's side with a rich harvest, Cheng Zihan smiled with her mouth open.

  Ying Yan probably regretted letting Cheng Zi Han and the others go up the mountain, now they have lost a lot of precious medicinal seedlings for nothing, it's really heartbreaking.

  After transporting another batch of seedlings back to the nursery in the evening, a group of people happily had dinner and then went back to rest.

  The second day was still the same itinerary, because the sellers at the free trade fair were different every day, so the varieties of seedlings sold were naturally different.

  Cheng Zihan also bought some tree seedlings such as ginkgo and walnut trees this time, but more flower seedlings were purchased after all, the main income is still mainly from flower seedlings.

  The prices are also not too expensive. Most of the outdoor ones can be bought for less than 1,000 yuan, and the most expensive indoor one is only 30,000 yuan for a potted orchid seedling.

  Han Yi said that it looks a bit like Lianban Lan, but he's not quite sure either. Only when the flower bud grows up and blooms can we tell for sure.

  Most orchid seedlings look similar, and only those who have studied for many years can identify the species from a young age. Han Yi had some knowledge of flowers and plants, but he was still young and inexperienced, and his exposure to different types of flowers and plants was limited, so naturally, he couldn't tell them apart.

  However, Cheng Zihan saw that the orchid was emitting a golden light and was definitely valuable, so he bought it very readily. As for what variety it was, he would only know when he got home to take a look.

  This time, because there was a goal, Cheng Zihang walked very quickly. It only took one morning to finish shopping and bought almost everything.

  After going back to rest, Cheng Zihan seemed to have been injected with chicken blood. She didn't plan to go to Taobao in the afternoon and instead had some interest in following Cheng Hai and others to search for treasure.

  Because of Cheng Hai and others' achievements yesterday, there were many more people going treasure hunting today. Cheng Zihan and the others went deep into the forest, but probably because there were too many people, they didn't see any valuable seedlings along the way.

  Cheng Zihan didn't lose heart either, anyway today was just a casual look around, even if they really couldn't find it, they would just consider it as taking a stroll.

  After an afternoon of strolling around, I was exhausted and sweating all over, but didn't gain much.

  Cheng Zihan was exhausted and couldn't move anymore, so she casually found a rock to sit down on.

  Cheng Hai and others were searching around the stone to see if they could find some valuable seedlings.

  After fiddling with it for a while, several people were somewhat disappointed.

  Cheng Zihan swung her legs back and forth, watching a few people busy at the side, with a faint smile on her face.

  The sky has gradually begun to darken, and at this time in the deep mountains it is not wise, even if there are no wild beasts lurking about, but snakes, insects, rats, and ants are not few, and most of them may be poisonous.

  Cheng Zihan jumped down from the big rock, clapped her hands and called out to the others: "Dad, Uncle Han, Hanyi, let's go back. It's getting dark, I guess we won't have any harvest today."

  A group of people have already searched here this morning, so naturally they can't find any valuable flower seedlings.

  Tian Can didn't know where he went, but that guy always wandered around aimlessly, and Cheng Zihang didn't take it to heart either.

  Cheng Hai and others were somewhat discouraged, but still made a mark on the stone, waiting for tomorrow to come again.

  A line of people began to walk back and forth.

  Cheng Zihan looked around, but didn't see the figure of Tian Can. Afraid that he might have stayed in the deep mountains, she couldn't help but call out a few times: "Tian Can? Tian Can? Where are you?"

  Cheng Hai also felt a bit strange, just now he seemed to have seen Tian Can's, but in the blink of an eye he was gone, and didn't know where he had slipped away to play.

  "I just saw him, how could he disappear in the blink of an eye?" Cheng Hai said, also shouting along with Cheng Zihan.

  Cheng Zihan furrowed his brow, thinking that if he found Tian Can, he would definitely beat him up to teach him a lesson.

  "After some thought, she said to the others: 'You all split up and search separately. Don't hide alone somewhere, in case something unexpected happens at night, it will be troublesome.'"

  Cheng Hai and others nodded, then separated to search for the heavenly silkworm in different places.

  Cheng Zihan had some special connection with Tian Can, relying on those faint feelings, she slowly walked towards the depths of the mountain.

  But after walking for a long time, the sky had already darkened, and there was still no sign of the heavenly silkworm.

  The insects around started making noise, chirping annoyingly.

  "Heavenly silkworm! Heavenly silkworm! If you don't come out, I'll kill you when I find you!" The surroundings were pitch black, with only the sound of insects echoing continuously, making Cheng Zihuan feel inexplicably anxious.

  She opened her throat and let out a loud roar, but the surroundings were quiet, with only her echo coming back.

  "Zi Han sister, sister, sister, sister..." A sudden echo came from the depths of the mountain, and not only did Cheng Zi Han hear it, but also Han Jun Chen and others.

  Cheng Zihan's heart moved, and she hurried forward, but the sky was dark, and the road under her feet was not easy to walk on, so she walked with difficulty, one foot deep and one foot shallow.

  The moonlight quietly passes through the treetops and casts a faint glow, but Cheng Zihan still sees only darkness in front of her.

  After walking for a long time, suddenly a small and plump body bumped into Cheng Zihan's arms, causing her to stumble backward several steps, almost falling over.

  Cheng Zihan's back hit the tree trunk and was knocked against the branches on the trunk, which hurt a lot.

  She was furious and shouted loudly at the black shadow in front of her: "Tian Can, you're asking for death?"

  The figure in front of her had stopped moving, but didn't speak, just standing there quietly, looking at Cheng Zihan.

  Cheng Zihan suddenly felt a chill run down her spine, it was an intuition, a completely instinctual feeling from the bottom of her heart.

  She subconsciously wanted to take a step back, but there was no way out behind her.

  The black shadow in front of me is not Tian Can.

  Cheng Zihan was very certain of this, because the air around him was filled with a strong murderous intent, making Cheng Zihan's heart and liver tremble slightly.

  "Who are you?" Cheng Zihan asked cautiously, having secretly pulled out the dagger from his waist and preparing to fight with the black shadow in front of him.

  The person in front of him remained still, and Cheng Zihang couldn't even feel his breathing. The surroundings were quiet, with only the sound of night insects echoing in his ears.

  Cheng Zihan took a tentative step forward, but the black shadow remained still, standing in place without moving, however, the killing intent around him grew thicker.

  Cheng Zihan gripped the dagger tightly in her hand and cautiously moved forward.

  Suddenly, the black shadow in front of her moved, its speed was so fast that it didn't allow Cheng Zihuan to react, and it had already moved behind her. Then a strong force violently collided with her back, sending Cheng Zihuan flying out.

  As expected, her actual combat experience was too little, and she was at a disadvantage against this kind of opponent!

  A burning pain spread across her back, accompanied by a chill. Cheng Zihans understood that her clothes must have been torn apart. Just now, the other party not only crashed into her but also scratched her with its claws.

  She was certain that those with sharp claws were absolutely animal paws.

  But what animal looks like humans?

  Cheng Zihan turned around, under the pale moonlight, she finally saw the face of the person in front of her clearly. His entire body was black, only revealing a pair of bright and shiny eyes, which at this moment were filled with a bloodthirsty glow. On his hands, there were still fragments of Cheng Zihan's clothes, and on his sharp and long fingernails, they were stained with blood.

  The "person" in front of me, apart from having a human-like body and limbs, is quite similar to an ape.

  It is said that in the depths of the mountains, there are often some wild men. They basically look like humans, but their bodies are covered with hair. Whether it's physical strength or speed, they are much stronger than ordinary humans.

  So I've actually encountered the legendary wild man?

  Just as Cheng Zihuan was feeling puzzled, he was suddenly and lightly tapped on the back.

  Cheng Zihan spun around and kicked out with a flying roundhouse kick, sending the person behind her rolling away like a ball.

  It wasn't until they had rolled far away that they heard a burst of wailing.

  This voice sounds somewhat familiar.

  Cheng Zihan furrowed her brow, thinking about which of the ball creatures she knew had just been kicked out.

  Suddenly a strong gust of wind came from behind, Cheng Zihan didn't dare to hesitate, his body flashed to the left and rolled onto the ground, rolling towards a nearby clump of grass.

  Unfortunately, most of the bushes here are thorny sensitive plants or thorny plants like thistles. Cheng Zihan only realized it after rolling in, and his whole body hurts badly.

  Cheng Zihan had been lying there for a while, and before she could get up, the sound of fighting came from outside.

  She was afraid that it was Cheng Hai and the others who had come, and were being attacked by those savages to suffer a loss. She quickly jumped up, waved her small knife and rushed forward to fight with the little savage again.

  It wasn't until they rushed out that they were shocked. Someone was fighting, but it wasn't Cheng Hai or anyone else. It was actually Tian Can and that wild man.

  It seems that the silkworm is no match, its plump body jumping up and down, looking quite comical.

  He caught sight of Cheng Zihuan and hastily cried out for help: "Sister Zihuan, save me! How did you provoke such a monster?"

  Cheng Zihan sighed and helped Tian Can fight against that little savage together.

  Xiaoyiren is not only incredibly fast and powerful, but what surprises Cheng Zihang the most is that his moves are very strange, each one being fatal, as if he has practiced before.

  Could it be the descendant of some hidden world's superior being who stayed here?

  In the blink of an eye, the three had already exchanged over thirty moves, but Cheng Zihan and Tian Can were clearly at a disadvantage.

  Cheng Zihan gritted her teeth and directly opened the demon pupil. As soon as it was opened, the little savage suddenly let out a shrill cry of despair, then turned into a wisp of black smoke and was actually sucked in by the demon pupil.

  Cheng Zihan was stunned, rubbing her own forehead. But didn't Mang Cang say that the demon pupils only worked on spiritual bodies? How did it actually work on a wild person too?

  Tian Can's curious past looked at Cheng Zihan's forehead eyes: "Sister Zihan, your demon pupils have been upgraded."

  Cheng Zihan touched her forehead and looked at Tian Can: "What level did you upgrade to?"

  "How could it be that it didn't advance and yet just sucked in that little monster?" Tian Can blinked his eyes, seemingly also somewhat perplexed.

  Cheng Zihan shook her head, "I don't know, what was that thing just now?"

  "Oh, a wild man. But this shouldn't be a pure wild man, it should be a human soul occupying the body of a wild orangutan, a wild man wouldn't have such high combat power." Tian Can introduced briefly and then continued to study Cheng Zihan's demon pupil.

  This demon pupil is a bit deeper in color than before and more prominent, now it looks more realistic and like an eye growing on the forehead.

  It should be promoted, but it's still a primary-level demon pupil. It's just that the strength is stronger than before, and some general things can see the origin clearly.

  Cheng Zihan's mouth twitched, and he looked down at Tian Can with a glance, then reached out to pick him up: "Where did you run off to?"

  "Ah ah ah, Zi Han sister, don't use so much force, it hurts so much!" Tian Can hurriedly begged for mercy.

  "Speak quickly! Let me come out and find you, it's almost dangerous for you to be here. Are you trying to get yourself killed?" Cheng Zihan scolded Tian Can harshly.

  Tian Can's face was full of grievance, "I discovered that there are good things deep in the mountains, but you guys walked too slowly, so I went in to find them myself."

  "What's good stuff?" Cheng Zihan came with interest.

  A pink, jelly-like thing suddenly appeared in Tian Can's hand and was handed over to Cheng Zihang.

  The icy smooth feeling made Cheng Zihuan loosen his hand, and the thing in his hand fell directly to the ground.

  Tian Can hastily hugged her, "Zi Han sister don't drop it."

  "What is that? It's filthy." Cheng Zihan looked disgusted and wouldn't let Tian Can get close to her with that thing.

  "This is a Cordyceps sinensis!" Tian Can glared at Cheng Zihuan, as if blaming her for not recognizing the treasure.

  "What's the use of Cordyceps?"

  "You humans say this thing can prolong life, we just think it's a good fertilizer, don't eat it all away." Tian Can said, opening his mouth as if to swallow the whole thing.

  Cheng Zihan suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, silently looked at Tian Can for a moment, then looked at the thing in his hand with suspicion, "If it's that useful, then leave it here."

  It's a pity that the sky silkworm can't be eaten, but if Zihuan likes it, he can also give it up.

  "Zi Han sister, I still have a lot." It seemed like he was afraid that if he didn't run around just now, Cheng Zi Han would get angry, so he poured out a large pile of Rou Ling Zhi.

  These meaty lingzhi come in all sizes, some are white and flowery, some are pink and puffy, and others are grayish yellow.

  At a rough glance, there were about fifty or sixty of them.

  "How can there be so many?" Cheng Zihan was stunned at once.

  Although I don't know what Rou Ling Zhi is, Ling Zhi has always been a precious medicinal material, so Rou Ling Zhi is probably just as precious.

  Tian Can smiled and quickly gathered up all the Rou Ling Zhi, "Zi Han sister, there are still many more in the back mountain, and inside there are other treasures, but I couldn't get close, so I could only steal these things."

  Cheng Zihan's eyes lit up, and she looked at Tian Can with ill intentions, "Tian Can, take me to see."

  Tian Can glanced at Cheng Zihuan with a faint gaze and shook his head firmly, "No."

  "Alright!" Cheng Zihan shook Tian Can's arm.

  Tian Can shook his head firmly and still said: "I won't go!"

  In the end, Cheng Zihang used both soft and hard tactics, but he never compromised.

  "Are you sure you won't say anything?" Cheng Zihan let out a cold snort and looked at Tian Can.

  Tian Can suddenly felt a chill in his heart and secretly glanced at Cheng Ziheng, "You, what do you want to do? I won't give in."

  Cheng Zihan smiled, "I don't want to do anything, but if you don't tell me, hey, in the future, you can forget about drinking a single drop of my blood!"

  Tian Can was startled and hastily hugged Cheng Zihans legs: "Sister Zihan, Sister Zihan I was wrong, I should not have kept it from you."

  Cheng Zihan raised an eyebrow.

  The silkworms work hard, but they can only lead the way in front.

  Cheng Zihan followed behind him.

  The two of them went deeper and deeper, the light around them getting darker and darker, and Cheng Zihans heart had a faint sense of danger.

  After walking for a while, the sky silkworm finally stopped.

  "Zi Han sister, are you going to continue? There are many Rou Ling Zhi here." Tian Can seemed to be somewhat hesitant, stopped and turned back to ask Cheng Zi Han.

  Cheng Zihan looked ahead and it was already completely dark. She couldn't see her hand in front of her face, let alone the road.

  She shook her head, "Let's wait till tomorrow morning and then take a look. How much more of this meat fungus is left here?"

  Tian Can shook his head, "I don't know."

  Cheng Zihan rolled her eyes.

  The two of them started searching around with their buttocks, as it was pitch black and the light here was also quite dim. The surrounding area could still hear the sound of water dripping, which made people feel particularly eerie and terrifying.

  Two people found a lot of meat lingzhi again. Cheng Zihan was worried that Cheng Hai and the others were in a hurry, so they stopped.

  "Alright, let's head back first." Cheng Zihan looked up at the sky, the moon had already hidden behind dark clouds, and it was even darker around them.

  The sky was illuminated all the way, but the light was still too dim.

  After walking for a long time, the two finally came out.

  Cheng Hai and Han Jingchen did not continue to search for Cheng Zihan, everyone waited outside, and only breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the two return.

  "Dad, Uncle Han, are you guys okay?" Cheng Zihan went over with a smile and didn't mention the encounter with the wild man, but asked Cheng Hai and the others with some concern.

  Cheng Hai shook his head, "We're fine, we just walked out and suddenly appeared here. We all felt a bit strange, so we didn't go back in and waited for you to come out."

  "It's all right, let's go back and rest first, we'll discuss it with Yin Yan again tomorrow." Cheng Zihan nodded and said to the others.

  Cheng Hai and they naturally had no opinion.

  A few people returned to their own rooms to rest.

  A night without words.

  The next morning, Cheng Zihan went to find Yin Yan.

  Rou Lingzhi didn't know its value, so she wanted to ask Yin Yan to confirm it. Moreover, she had too many in her hands and naturally wanted to sell some to make some money.

  Yingyan had nothing to do in the morning, so she stayed in her own room.

  Cheng Zihan was sitting on the sofa in the living room with her legs crossed, drinking tea. When she saw Cheng Zihan coming, she stood up enthusiastically and went to pull Cheng Zihan over.

  Cheng Zihan somewhat awkwardly withdrew his hand, "Yin Yan, I came to find you, actually there's something on my mind."

  "Oh? What's up?" As for Cheng Zihan, Yin Yan didn't mind at all. She had always wanted to cooperate with Cheng Zihan. Although the last time she went to discuss it was in vain, if Cheng Zihan could provide more things for her to auction, they could also extract a considerable commission from it.

  A ten percent handling fee was also a large sum of money for Silver Swallow.

  "I want you to help me with something." Cheng Zihan smiled and followed Yin Yan to sit down on the sofa beside her.

  "What thing?"

  "Take a look first." Cheng Zihan took out a fist-sized meat Lingzhi and handed it to Silver Swallow.

  Yin Yan took it over, looked at it carefully, and her eyes lit up immediately. "You, you have a Carnivorous Lingzhi?"

  "Yes." Cheng Zihan nodded in agreement and said: "But I don't know if this thing is worth money, let me take a look."

  "It's worth it, of course it is!" Yin Yan laughed so hard that her eyes narrowed into a line.

  Cheng Zihan showed some interest, "Is it expensive?"

  "Well, it depends on the size and year. This one can probably sell for around 10 to 20 million, but after my operation, I estimate it could go up to around 30 million at most. If it's bigger, it'll be even higher, mainly depending on the quality." Yinyin couldn't bear to put down that soft, wet, and elastic thing, and she couldn't stop smiling.

  Cheng Zihan took out another big one and asked: "What about this?"

  Yingyan's eyes were wide with wonder, but she didn't dare ask Cheng Zihan where he had gotten the things from.

  She recognized Han Jincheng, so she naturally knew that Han Jincheng's background was not simple. Cheng Zihan could rise rapidly in a short period of time, and the development of the plantation was well-planned, so the power behind it would not be simple either. It is estimated that there is support from the Han family in the back.

  In a big family like Han's, nothing is surprising, but she was curious about what kind of precious thing could be hidden without anyone knowing.

  But Yin Yan was a perceptive person and naturally didn't ask.

  "You, how did you get so many?" Yin Yan looked at Cheng Zihan and took out an even bigger piece of meat Lingzhi, she was shocked to the point where her jaw almost dropped.

  Cheng Zihan smiled faintly: "Don't worry about it, just tell me if it's valuable or not. If the price is good, I'd like to sell a few."

  "Silver Swallow almost fell over, 'You, you have a lot more?'"

  "Yes." Cheng Zihan nodded honestly. Anyway, she had to rely on Silver Swallow's help to buy it, and now she had more than a hundred Roulingzhi in her hands, how could she eat so many by herself? She could only sell some of them, this thing can be stored for a long time.

  "Price is no problem! As long as you're willing to take it out and let me operate, I'll take whatever amount!" Yin Yan's eyes sparkled brightly as she looked at Cheng Zihan.

  "Ah, I'm also quite short of money now, and was just thinking of selling some things to get some cash." Cheng Zihan nodded, thought for a moment, then said to Yin Yan: "You can send someone to the house where I live to pick it up later, there's too much stuff, I only brought two with me."

  Cheng Zihan wasn't worried that Yin Yan would be tempted by wealth, but after all, the Storage Ring was a rare item in this world, so it's better not to let others know about it.

  Ying Yan sent Cheng Zihan away and immediately sent someone to find Cheng Zihan.

  But because there were no meat lingzhi before, now suddenly so many meat lingzhi have appeared for auction, so she naturally wants to arrange them.

  The medicinal value of Reishi mushroom is better than that of Lingzhi, and it can be used directly to make tea, which has the effect of inhibiting cancer cell growth and prolonging life.

  Who would dislike a long life? Especially the rich, this time there are also some high-ranking officials from the party central committee who came to participate in the auction, but because of their identity, they did not appear in the previous trading sessions. However, on the last two days of the auction, they will all show up. Roulingzhi is a top choice for either personal use or as a gift.

  Ying Yan was somewhat excited, Cheng Zi Han indeed brought her surprises every time she came.

  It turns out that the Lingzhi mushroom is also a kind of plant. This auction is clearly a plant-only event, as many high-ranking officials and wealthy individuals like to cultivate flowers and plants, so high-end flowers are still in demand.

  Now with Rou Ling Zhi, Yin Yan also feels more confident.

  She immediately arranged for someone to go and inform those high-ranking officials who had come to attend the auction.

  They were arranged in a villa on the other side, and there were many guards guarding them from front to back, not allowing anyone to get close.

  This time all four major families have come, and even someone from the hidden world family has arrived.

  Among the items in this auction, there is a walnut tree that is said to have been left over from ancient times, and it's also said to be an ornamental walnut.

  Walnut carvings are inedible but have health benefits. The market for this is not large, only a small number of enthusiasts will spend big money to buy them.

  The current price of walnut is not expensive, if it's an old one, it can be sold for 180,000 to 200,000.

  But if you can really get a walnut tree, the walnuts that can be harvested from one tree are definitely not small. Moreover, it is an ancient tree, and just this alone makes the walnuts that come out of it more valuable than usual, so many people have come with a wait-and-see attitude.

  "Master, I heard that this time's auction also includes Roulingzhi. Just now, a messenger came from Miss Yinyan's side." In a uniquely decorated villa, a man in his 40s spoke respectfully to an elderly man sitting on the sofa with his eyes closed.

  This old man was none other than Han's family master, Han Bozun.

  The old man raised his eyelids slightly and looked at the middle-aged man with a faint gaze, "Are both Jing Chen and Xiao Yi here?"

  The middle-aged man nodded and replied honestly: "Yes, they are all with a girl named Cheng Zihan."

  "Cheng Zihan? Hmph, interesting. You go and investigate this girl's identity and why two proud men of the Han family are following her." The old man coldly smiled and instructed the middle-aged man.

  "Yes, master." The middle-aged man retreated and arranged for someone to investigate where Cheng Zihang had gone.

  "Cheng Zihan? Little girl?" The old man's mouth curled up, drawing a cold smile.

  This time, three other family heads also came, Situ Yan of the Situ family, Qin Xiangwei of the Qin family, and Yan Wuheng of the Yan family.

  They didn't come for the auction, but because they saw Han Bo Xun had arrived, they felt it would be a loss if they didn't come, so they hastily followed over.

  If they knew that Han Bo had traveled thousands of miles just to see what the girl who had lured his son and grandson here, never to return, looked like, they would probably be furious.

  Cheng Zihan didn't know she was being stalked, but Han Jincheng had known for a long time.

  Since people from Han's family appeared in Wangcheng, he had already discovered it.

  Cheng Zihan was still as usual, taking Cheng Hai to the trading fair scene, and also bought some things. However, on the third day, he bought relatively fewer things. The good stuff probably had already been bought in the first two days, so there wasn't much left to buy.

  But this time there are some new things, tropical plants, such as Venus flytraps and pitcher plants.

  However, Cheng Zihan knew that this plant has no market at present, so he just took a look and didn't make a purchase.

  In the morning, they only strolled for two hours before Cheng Zihan took Cheng Hai and the others to go treasure hunting.

  Because they had a goal, Cheng Zi Han and his group didn't linger on the road this time, but went straight to their destination.

  Han Yingchen said halfway that he had something to leave the team, and Cheng Ziheng was very relieved about him, so she didn't stop him.

  A group of people, led by Tian Can, came again to the place where Cheng Zi Han discovered the Rou Ling Zhi yesterday. The Rou Ling Zhi here had been almost picked up by Cheng Zi Han and Tian Can, but there were still a lot left. Cheng Hai and Qin Ke Xiu were busy picking some.

  Han Yi continued to follow Cheng Zihan deeper. Because there might be danger inside, so Cheng Zihan didn't let Cheng Hai continue to follow, and Qin Kexiu naturally stayed behind to protect Cheng Hai.

  Cheng Zihan didn't originally allow Han Yi to enter with her, fearing he would be in danger, but she couldn't resist his persistence and had no choice but to bring him along.

  Heavenly silkworms naturally lead the way in front.

  It was probably daytime, and Cheng Zihan didn't have that panicked feeling anymore. The whole way was very calm, and nothing special happened.

  Suddenly, Cheng Zihan's heart thumped heavily, and she had a bad feeling. She looked ahead, but was frightened stiff.

  By the way

  Sorry, I can only update 10,000 words today. Something happened at home, my mom got into a car accident this morning and went to the hospital, so I was busy all day and didn't have enough time to write when I came back tonight. Plus, I'm a lazy person who always procrastinates, so I'll just update with what I've written for now.

  This month has come to an end, and November is just around the corner. On November 1st, I'll be participating in the academy's crazy update activity, so there will be a burst of updates. Starting now, I'll be stockpiling drafts and resolutely stopping my naked sprint. Hope you all can give me lots of support!
