Did Your Martial Uncle Let You Go?

Zhao, the brawny man, didn't care about their conflict, he only cared about: "Jun Shao, what do you think is the estimated price of this 'Flood Dragon Eye'?"

Liao Feijun casually said, "5.25 million."

Zhao, the brawny man, was slightly stunned: "So precise, is there any explanation?"

"Of course, there is."

Liao Feijun said calmly, "Analyzing the market situation in the last five years, four years ago, my grandfather presided over a secret auction where a Flood Dragon Eye was sold for a high price of 8.88 million; two years ago, a Flood Dragon Eye was bought by a mysterious buyer through the Deep Web for 9.25 million; and according to my information, someone is now offering more than 10 million to acquire a Flood Dragon Eye with perfect quality—this thing absorbs the essence of the sun and moon, contains extremely rich Spirit Energy, and has been polished by two different monsters for hundreds of years. It is a rare super-potion raw material that can help Superhumans break through to higher realms, enhance bone strength and muscle flexibility, and turn their limbs into python-like toughness. Ten million is not expensive."

Zhao, the brawny man's eyes flashed: "Then, why can our Blood Wolf's Flood Dragon Eye only sell for a little over five million?"

"Simple, the requirement for ten million is perfect quality, but your Flood Dragon Eye has flaws."

Liao Feijun snapped his fingers lightly.

A wisp of cyan flame sprang from his fingertips.

He brought the cyan flame close to the Flood Dragon Eye.

Suddenly, in the brilliant light reflected by the Flood Dragon Eye, an ugly, winding shadow appeared.

It was like a knife scar on a beauty's face, extremely glaring and regrettable.

"This is—"

Zhao, the brawny man's face changed.

They hadn't even noticed this flaw themselves.

"I estimate that when you were hunting the Red-Tailed Golden Python, you must have launched a lightning-based killing move, causing the Spirit Energy inside the Flood Dragon Eye to become disordered. And when collecting the Super Beast crystal core, your movements were too rough, bumping and jostling, causing the Spirit Energy of the Flood Dragon Eye to completely lose control, breaking through this extremely fine crack. Although it is difficult to identify with the naked eye, one-third of the Spirit Energy has leaked, the quality has been severely reduced, and the effect of the potion made from it will also be greatly reduced. Therefore, I estimate the price at 5.25 million. Of course, if you don't believe me, you can go elsewhere to evaluate it. I believe the price won't differ too much."

Liao Feijun smiled, looking suave and confident.

Zhao, the brawny man's face was half delighted and half annoyed.

He was happy that hunting monsters had yielded a top-quality item.

But he was annoyed that improper harvesting had reduced the value of the top-quality item by half!

"Who harvested this Flood Dragon Eye? So rough?" Liao Feijun frowned and asked.

"Our captain harvested it himself." Zhao, the brawny man, thought for a moment and decided to tell the truth.

"Then no wonder. Specialization in a field is essential. Being able to kill doesn't necessarily mean being able to save. Being able to chop a monster into mincemeat with random strikes doesn't necessarily mean being able to precisely harvest and ensure the maximum value of the materials. Your Blood Wolf team has been rising very quickly recently. It's time to find a professional harvester team to cooperate with." Liao Feijun said.

Zhao, the brawny man, nodded heavily, convinced: "Jun Shao is absolutely right. I will go back and discuss it with the captain and cooperate with your Liao family!"

Liao Feijun smiled slightly and turned to call out to his friends: "Young Master Nie, haven't you been trying to break through to Three-Star Extraordinary recently? This Flood Dragon Eye is just what you need. Give me some face, 5.5 million, will you buy it?"

That "Young Master Nie" was also a flamboyant and imposing scion of a wealthy family, who stepped forward upon hearing this.

Liao Feijun explained: "Don't say I'm ripping you off. Although the quality of this Flood Dragon Eye is not good, it is just right for the Dragon Slaying Art you cultivate. I believe it will definitely help you reach the Three-Star realm."

Young Master Nie laughed and readily gave him face: "Alright, no need to explain. Do I not trust you, Jun Shao? 6 million, Vice-Captain Zhao, will your Blood Wolf team sell it?"

Zhao, the brawny man, was overjoyed and nodded repeatedly: "Sell, of course, we'll sell. Thank you, Young Master Nie."

Again, I thank Jun Shao for his guidance. Jun Shao truly deserves to be the rising star of Dragon City's Harvester circle!"

In just a few words, he not only explained the origins of the unknown material clearly, but also turned it into a deal. Moreover, he used his connections and professional knowledge to increase the price by 750,000, making both the buyer and seller happy.

This is the demeanor of a high-end Harvester!

In an instant, Liao Feijun became the center of attention.

As for Meng Chao, he didn't even have the qualification to be looked down upon.

Just kidding, everyone here is from the upper class, high-end business people, very busy. Who has time to look down on an ordinary high school student?

Okay, Liao Feijun has time.

"Meng 'martial uncle,' let me give you a few words."

Liao Feijun couldn't bear to see Meng Chao slip away quietly like this. He clasped his hands behind his back and said lightly, "Harvester is an industry with a very low barrier to entry but an extremely high ceiling. To become an excellent Harvester, the most important thing is family background—because all kinds of rare treasures must be studied from a young age, even handled personally, to find the feeling.

"Perhaps you really have talent, but due to your family environment, living in public housing, you obviously can't come into contact with exotic treasures like the 'Flood Dragon Eye.'

"This is really not a circle you should step into. Forcing your way in will not only make you uncomfortable, but if you make a mistake in identification and delay the important affairs of the buyer and seller, can you afford it?

"I don't know what Grandpa Ning was thinking when he chose you, but you yourself should have a sense of self-awareness. Otherwise, you'll mislead yourself and others, harming both yourself and others!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was in an uproar.

Meng Chao was wearing the uniform of Ninth High School. Ninth High School is a key district school, and many students come from decent families, so everyone couldn't figure out his background.

Now, hearing Jun Shao say that this kid still lives in public housing, what qualifications does he have to attend such a high-end material trading fair?

Liao Feijun's cronies started laughing first.

Gu Ming, the technical director of Jiu Xin, even shouted loudly, "I know this kid's background. Not only does he live in public housing, but his father is also a low-level Harvester at our Jiu Xin. He was just kicked out for being dishonest!"

Now, the discussions among the people in the circle became even louder.

It was only out of respect for White-Haired Ghost Hand that Meng Chao wasn't directly driven out.

Meng Chao's eyes were deep as he stared at the "Flood Dragon Eye," lost in thought.

Liao Feijun thought he was frightened, shook his head, and walked off the stage.

"Jun Shao, Young Master Nie, shall we talk about the details?" A burly man surnamed Zhao from the Blood Wolf team chased after him with a smile.

Ning Xueshi stomped her feet in anger.

Ning Shewo clutched his chest, wanting to go on stage to save face for Meng Chao.

"Wait."

Just then, Meng Chao suddenly spoke, his voice calm and composed, "Since you call me 'martial uncle,' did martial uncle tell you to leave?"

Liao Feijun frowned slightly, slowing down his pace only a little.

"Hey, you, Liao Feijun, right? Do you really think this is a 'Flood Dragon Eye'?" Meng Chao spoke again, his voice full of suspicion.

As if he found it strange that Liao Feijun could answer such a simple question incorrectly, and so ridiculously.

Making such a ridiculous mistake, and still daring to show off?

Finished showing off, and you still want to leave?

Liao Feijun, Jun Shao, and the brawny man surnamed Zhao finally stopped.

"You said you didn't know just now, so what tricks are you playing now? Don't you think you've embarrassed yourself enough?" Liao Feijun's face darkened.

Meng Chao shook his head, "I really don't know what it is, I only know that no matter what it is, it can't possibly be a 'Flood Dragon Eye'!"

This sentence caused a wave of boos.

Several veteran Harvesters secretly shook their heads, "This is indeed a Flood Dragon Eye. Liao Feijun, as the grandson of 'Poison Hand', is knowledgeable and has sharp eyes. This kid is just trying to save face, I'm afraid he's going to take a big fall."

"Little friend Meng, stop talking, come down quickly!" Ning Shewo was extremely anxious. He also saw that this was a Flood Dragon Eye, but he didn't know how Meng Chao could turn the tide. This time, he had really harmed Meng Chao.

Meng Chao sighed, his face full of the expression of a primary school teacher lecturing his students, "If it were as simple as a Flood Dragon Eye, I would naturally know it at a glance.

"However, when I took a second look, I found something strange, so I observed it carefully for another five minutes.

"You know that Single Wood Grass bears fruit once every three years, and each time there is a certain probability of producing a 'Ghost Eye Fruit', very good, very good, you've been studying hard. But do you also know that Ghost Eye Fruits can also mutate, and there is a very small probability that they will mutate a second time into an even rarer 'Demon Eye Fruit'? If the Demon Eye Fruit is eaten by a Golden Bristle Hyena Pig, and the Golden Bristle Hyena Pig is then eaten by a Red-Tailed Golden Python, how can the crystal nucleus that is finally condensed still be a 'Flood Dragon Eye'? It should be called a 'Demon Dragon Eye'."

"What!"

Liao Feijun was dumbfounded.

Jun Shao and the brawny man surnamed Zhao looked at each other, seeing the surprise in each other's eyes.

Including Ning Shewo, all the Harvesters present fell silent, quickly rummaging through their minds, searching for "Demon Dragon Eye", but to no avail.

"What 'Demon Dragon Eye'? I've never heard of it. Aren't you just talking nonsense? Otherwise, why didn't you say so earlier?" Liao Feijun rebuked.

Meng Chao sighed helplessly, "Because 'Demon Eye Fruit' has as many as fifteen different directions for secondary mutation, and the condensed 'Demon Dragon Eye' also has fifteen different varieties. I am an ordinary high school student living in public housing, my family is poor, I don't have much knowledge, and I haven't been learning harvesting and appraisal for long. Although I can see that this is a Demon Dragon Eye, I can't even begin to imagine which kind of Demon Dragon Eye it is. I can only honestly admit that I know nothing."
