Tang Wen opened it, and a glittering gold crown appeared.
Of course, it was the sort worn by beauty pageant winners, set with a dozen or even several dozen exquisite pearls.
Naturally, the ones he brought to the Black Tortoise Domain were far more upscale than those he took to the Chu Kingdom.
The gold was of excellent purity, and with modern polishing techniques, each one cost over a hundred thousand at wholesale.
"Let me try one on." Wei Yanhong took one and put it on her head, instantly glittering with jewels.
"Sister, you look beautiful. Your radiance lights up the room." That was excellent-Duan Yu had actually delivered an off-the-charts assist.
"So many pearls. And what are these sparkling stones called? They must be expensive, right?" Wei Yanhong asked enviously.
"They're called diamonds. They sparkle and shine. Of course, these are quite expensive. They're worn by princesses, queens, and noble consorts in the Mysterious Nether Domain," Tang Wen said.
"You mean ladies like those who used to live in the imperial palaces?" Duan Yu asked.
"Exactly, exactly. There are countries of every size in the Mysterious Nether Domain. Some have female emperors, so they're called queens. Once they put on these crowns and the cries of 'Long live Your Majesty!' ring out three times, all their ministers are frightened to the ground," Tang Wen spouted nonsense.
"This must be expensive. A single one probably costs a hundred low-grade spirit stones," Qi Hengjiang said.
"A hundred? You couldn't get one for that. At least three hundred," Ku Mutong said.
Since Tang Wen had promised him a commission, this fellow was going all out. The bigger he made the deal, the larger his commission. In any case, he certainly wasn't buying one himself.
"Three hundred? Surely not! That's too expensive." Wei
