Chapter 3615: A weird reason
Translator: 549690339
Putting aside the matter of changing Kuangqu, anyone with a normal IQ would know which to choose if they wanted to exchange sixteen spiritual jades for a small spiritual Jade.
Meng jueguang thought that he’d finally achieved his goal, but Lin Yi’s next words almost made him spit blood.”No, I won ‘t.”
“F * ck! You still don’t want to exchange? You’re crazy!” Meng jueguang didn’t even have time to speak before Meng Tong jumped up. Sixteen spirit jades for a small spirit Jade, and he still wasn’t willing to trade-this Lin Yi was a lunatic!
“You shut up!” Meng jueguang glared at him before turning to Lin Yi.”Why not? Don’t you trust me?”
Lin Yi looked at him, amused.” 16 pieces of spiritual Jade in exchange for my little spiritual Jade? even a fool can see that there’s a problem with this. Perhaps this little spiritual Jade of mine is special and worth far more than 16?”
“Hey, I’m taking care of you and giving you benefits. Not only are you ungrateful, but you also think that you’re a rare commodity that can be kept?” After Meng jueguang came to his senses, he immediately burst into laughter and said disdainfully, “Don’t be delusional, kid. There’s nothing special about that little spirit Jade of yours other than its small size. If it weren’t for me taking care of you, your little spirit Jade would only be worth half a piece of spirit Jade at most. It’s simply a fool’s dream!”
“Since there’s nothing special about it, why did you exchange so many spiritual jades with me? could it be that all your spiritual jades are worthless trash?” Lin Yi asked. In fact, he didn’t find anything different about the little spirit Jade other than its size, but he didn’t believe that there wasn’t anything fishy about it.
“You can eat whatever you want, but you can’t say whatever you want!” Meng jueguang’s expression changed and he said righteously,”Sky Class Island strictly prohibits trading useless jades in the market. Besides, Lin Yi Junior Brother, you’ve been mining for two days already. You should know the situation in the spirit Jade Hall. Useless jades have always been gathered in the mines to continue absorbing the spiritual energy of the world. Not a single piece is allowed to be released. How could I have so many useless jades?”
Lin Yi looked at him noncommittally. Meng jueguang wasn’t lying, but it wasn’t completely false. At most, he could use it to trick newbies. Sky Class Island did have a rule that no one was allowed to use waste Jade to trade, but it was just like counterfeit money in the secular world. It could be banned on the surface, but it couldn’t be completely stopped in private.
Of course, for cultivators, it was very easy to distinguish a good Jade waste. Therefore, the success rate of using a good Jade waste to pass off as a good Jade was not high. Therefore, under normal circumstances, people would consume the spiritual energy in the spirit Jade completely and would not deliberately waste the spiritual energy to leave behind a good Jade waste. Therefore, for most people, it was normal to have one or two pieces of unused Jade, but it was rare to have 16 pieces!
However, while it might be impossible for others, it wasn’t impossible for Meng jueguang, who was scheming to trick Lin Yi. Besides, he had a wide network in the spirit Jade Hall, so it wasn’t hard for him to get a few pieces of useless Jade!
Afraid that Lin Yi would continue to question him, Meng jueguang quickly dispelled his suspicions,”Forget it. I’ll tell you the truth in case you’re suspicious. The reason why I’m willing to pay such a high price for your little spiritual Jade is not only to get you to agree to change Kuangqu, but also because someone has asked me to use your spiritual Jade as a jade carving.”
“A jade carving?” Lin Yi blinked. This was a common thing in the common world, but even though spiritual Jade was of the best quality, it was filled with the Qi of heaven and earth, making the material quite hard. It shouldn’t be easy to make a jade carving like this.
“That’s right. As you know, spirit jades that are filled with spiritual energy are very hard and difficult to cut. However, if the spiritual energy inside is consumed, the quality of the Jade will decline. So if you want to use spirit Jade to make jade carvings, you must use an original spirit Jade of similar size. “In a jade mine, these spirit jades are divided into veins. The size of each piece you mine depends on the original vein that was broken out. You can’t smash it as big as you want, so the small ones are more suitable for carving. Even an expert at the peak of the late Foundation establishment stage would find it difficult to cut the big ones completely!”
Meng jueguang glanced at Lin Yi and continued, “It’s going to be the only granddaughter’s birthday soon. The grandson of our GreenCloud Pavilion’s elder Zhao, Zhao Yu, wanted to find someone to carve a Jade Rabbit as a birthday gift, so he went around looking for egg-sized spirit jades. Now, he’s come to me, and I thought that you just happened to have such a small spirit Jade in your hands, so I wanted to trade it with you. Now you know the whole story, right?”
Lin Yi nodded-this explanation wasn’t empty at all. After all, other than being size enough, his little spirit Jade didn’t have any other special features. Other than making a jade carving, it really didn’t have much use.
However, from another perspective, Qiao hongcai and Xiao ran weren’t very smart, so wouldn’t it be easier for him to threaten them? Why look for a thorn like him? So Lin Yi still didn’t believe him.
Meng jueguang saw this and quickly struck while the iron was hot.”This kind of small spirit Jade is actually useless in my hands. Although it’s rare to see one of this size, I can still find it as long as I go out and ask around. I’m buying this piece of spirit Jade at such a high price because I’m taking care of you! It’s still the same sentence, after this village, there won’t be such a shop again. If you’re not willing, I’ll turn around and find someone else without a second word!”
Lin Yi pondered for a moment before replying,”If you want to exchange it for my little spirit Jade, sure, I want thirty pieces!”
When Meng jueguang heard the first half of the sentence, he was a little happy, but when he heard the second half, he was only left with shock and anger. Meng Tong, who was beside him, could not help but jump up and say,”F * ck! You bastard, you’re just raising the price!”
“Seventeen pieces, no more!” Meng jueguang hesitated for a moment before saying. Lin Yi, you need to think this through-you’re not the only one with little Ling Yu, don’t go overboard!”
“Twenty-eight pieces.” Lin Yi said faintly.
“Eighteen pieces!” At any other time, if Meng jueguang didn’t immediately turn hostile, he would have at least flicked his sleeves and left, but now that his plan was on the verge of success, he couldn’t bear to waste all his efforts, so he gritted his teeth and continued to raise the price.
“Twenty-six pieces.” Lin Yi said, his face unchanged-it seemed that he was in the mood to continue.
Gritting his teeth, Meng jueguang took out four pieces of spiritual Jade from his wide sleeve … “If you like this work, you’re welcome to come to Qidian.com to give your recommendation and monthly vote. Your support is my greatest motivation. For mobile users, please read on M.Qidian.com.)
