The butler lin, to be able to change his surname to the master surname indicates his royalty and closeness.
Shi Yixue, silently wait for him to arrive inside the waiting room. They didn't look down on her cheap clothes and serve her with tea and snacks.
But she don't have time for that, shi mingxi had given only a week. Although she had explained her that the round way trip will take ten to eleven days.
She already had told her that after a week she will start looking around for buyer. But if she didn't came with money on tenth day, the bracelet will be gone.
Soon, the butler lin arrive in the room. Shi Yixue stood up and greet him, which he return to her.
Butler lin "so what does miss shi, is here to sell to my master" shi Yixue take out the wooden bucket and open it.
Butler lin, take a look and his expression immediately change. He seriously look at her and ask her to wait for few minutes.
And immediately rush inside, few minutes later and old man with blad head and big white beard came rushing inside the room.
Looking at the pair of the crystal fish his eyes lit up, with face full of excitement he ask.
"Are you here to sell this pair to us" shi Yixue nodded her head. Butler lin also arrived panting heavily.
Butler lin "clan head, can you please take care of your own health" this man look like he's about to cry.
Clan head lin wave his hand "don't be so fuzzy. I'm as strong as an ox. You don't need to worry about me"
Clan head lin "little girl, I'm willing to offer you 5 white jade mark. What do you think" shi Yixue eyes lit up but she's still pretend to hesitate a little.
Clan head lin become anxious "10, no 15 white jade mark, what do you say" shi Yixue nodded her head in agreement.
Shi Yixue "okay I will sell them to you and also they need to be in calm, still crystal Lake water"
Since, he offer such huge offer she might as well as give them some tips on the pair. Clan head lin nodded his head and hand over the pouch containing jade mark
She also didn't put on show and immediately check the spiritual energy. Clan head lin didn't said anything.
After all even though they had good reputation, for someone who had seen too much on streets.
She don't know who's real or just very good at pretending. So, she didn't take rish and check the jade token infront of them.
She put the token back after she was sure about there authenticity. She smile sweetly at them and big them farewell.
She immediately hitch a river back to the outer ring, which also took five days. She immediately get down and payed the remaining fare to the driver and run toward the shi clan streets.
When she reach the shi clan resident and start asking around about shi mingxi. She get to know that she went to tea house.
She immediately went to the most famous tea house of the outer ring and immediately found her entering the tea house.
Shi Yixue "mingxi, mingxi" shi mingxi turn around in surprise and stopped. Shi Yixue, immediately approach her.
She signal her to wait as she pant heavily trying to catch her breath from all running around.
Shi mingxi "seem like the bracelet is really faithed to you. I'm just about to sell it to someone who offer me 5 white jade mark so....
Unless you give me more then that I'm not selling the bracelet to you anymore. Though I will unwillingly give you your share"
Shi mingxi spoke with eyes sparkling with mischievous glint. Shi Yixue lips twitch as she cruse at her in her heart.
Shi Yixue "6 white jade mark" shi mingxi smile widen as she spoke.
Shi mingxi "but the women inside look very rich. If I ask maybe she will give me 10" her cunning smile made her hand itch.
Shi Yixue "fine I will give you 10 white jade mark. But don't try to bite more then you can chew understand" she nodded obediently.
They both immediately enter the tea house and book private room for one white spirit jade. Both agreed to slipt the room bill.
Shi mingxi "here's your bracelet" shi Yixue rudely snatch the bracelet irritatedly, while she just smile at her sweetly.
Shi Yixue toss the purse holding 10 white jade mark. Shi mingxi immediately take a look at the coins and excitedly hold them close to her.
