Legend of the Asura

Chapter 47: Bare naked extortion

Coming to "nothing can be not appraised", Feng Xiao touched the Heavenly Dragon Secret Token on his chest.  With a laugh, he confidently walked in.

Earning from the appraisal shop, no, earning one hundred million RMB from the Ascend group, how could he not feel awkward.

Appraisal old man, go and cry.

"Hello grandpa appraiser, can you help me appraise this jade?"  Entering the appraisal shop, Feng Xiao directly took out the Heavenly Profound Fantasy Jade.

The appraiser old man looked at him with a strange gaze for a while, feeling very strange that this brat came again.  Could it be he really obtained one hundred million gold coins? What kind of joke is that, that was absolutely impossible.  Then could it be..

This brat has gone crazy in the head.

The appraiser old man immediately revealed a strong stance and snorted as he spoke, "I've already said it, one hundred million gold coins."

"Eh..Grandpa appraiser, I don't have the gold coins, but see if this is enough."  He showed a golden glowing token to the appraiser old man.

The appraiser old man disdainfully looked at it.  With a golden flash, his pupils suddenly shrank as he said in a shocked voice, "The Heavenly Dragon Secret Token!"

"Oh, grandpa appraiser, since you recognize it, you should know its rights.  So, I'll have to trouble you."

The appraiser old man's head was covered in cold sweat.

The Heavenly Dragon Secret Token had not appeared in decades, but the appraiser old man recognized it because every person on the Heavenly Dragon Continent recognized it.  It represented bravery and honour, it represented the trust and authority of the emperor.

Moreover, the Heavenly Dragon Secret Token cannot be faked at all.

"This..this"  The appraiser old man's head was covered in sweat as he stammered on.

"What, grandpa appraiser, is there a problem?"

"This...Ke, ke, sir Secret Envoy, please sit."  The appraiser old man's face twisted as he suddenly had a flattering appearance.

Even if he had ten times the guts, he still did not dare defy the prestige of the Heavenly Dragon Secret Token under the eyes of the Heavenly Dragon Palace, but he acted like there was nothing he couldn't appraise before and even gave a shockingly high price.  If the other side knew that he couldn't appraise it, not only would his "nothing can be not appraised" be false and his prestige be destroyed, he would also lose his home.

Even a fool could see that something was wrong.  Feng Xiao asked in a strange voice, "Grandpa appraiser, is there a problem?  Please appraise it for me right away, I'm in a rush."

"......"  The appraiser old man gritted his teeth and said, "Sir Secret Envoy, actually..Your jade's grade is too high and I can't appraise it?"

"What!?"  Feng Xiao was first stunned before almost jumping up, "Can't be appraised?  What was the matter of the one hundred million from before, were you just playing me!"

The appraiser old man's face looked awkward.  After a while, he weakly said, "This little old man did it for the shop's prestige."

Feng Xiao's mind turned and he couldn't help wanting to smile to the heavens.

Such a good blackmail chance, let him be struck by heavenly thunder if he didn't properly use this.

Feng Xiao said with an aggrieved expression, "For your prestige?  You can give such an evil and heartless lie for a shop's prestige?  Do you know how much damage you've caused my weak heart? How will you let me believe in society, ke, ke, the Heavenly Dragon Continent's people."

"It doesn't matter if you told a small lie, but this creates distrust between people and in the long run, it will create chaos.  With the disaster of the Heavenly Dragon Continent approaching, the Heavenly Dragon citizens cannot repel the enemy unless they are united.  Instead, there is chaos everywhere and no one can trust each other. If it continues like this, the Heavenly Dragon Imperial Court will be destroyed!"

Feng Xiao directly raised this problem to the level of the Heavenly Dragon Continent's destruction in just a few words.  The appraiser old man's face turned pale and he was covered in cold sweat.

Feng Xiao gave a long sigh and said, "I never thought I would have to use the Heavenly Dragon Secret Envoy's rights this soon.  Grandpa appraiser, your appraisal shop has committed the crime of cheating and impaired the Heavenly Dragon Continent's order and peace, so I will immediately report this to the Heavenly Dragon Emperor and have him close your appraisal shop."

The appraiser old man almost fell to the ground as his guts turned green with regret.  He quickly held onto Feng Xiao who pretended to leave and said with a panicked look, "Sir Secret Envoy, you mustn't.  This little old man has a sick eighty year old mother and a three year old child asking for food. My entire family depends on this shop to support ourselves!  My family will not be able to live if this store closes. Sir Secret Envoy, please let me off this first offense on account of my high age! I swear, this will be only only time and last time."

Your eighty year old mother?  Your three year old child? Feng Xiao looked at his withered as tree bark old face and almost spat out.

Feng Xiao pretended to be in deep thought before letting out a sigh bemoaning the state of the universe, "Forget it, I don't have any shortcomings other than being too kind hearted, too benevolent, and too generous.  As long as you agree to one of my small request, I will not pursue this matter."

When the appraiser old man heard this, he immediately said in a voice filled with praise, "As long as sir Secret Envoy does not close my store, I will agree to any request."

Hei, hei, then I won't be polite.  Feng Xiao cleared his throat before slowly saying, "The request is very simple.  Just teach me the appraisal skill."

"What?"  The appraiser old man's reaction surpassed Feng Xiao's expectations, "No, no, I definitely can't agree to this request!"

"Why not?  You can do this casually!  Do you want your store to be closed!"

The appraiser old man had a strange firmness, "Definitely not!  The appraisal skill is a secret technique of my appraisal sect, it definitely cannot be given to outsiders.  Do you want my appraisal sect to be exterminated?"

Secret technique?  Bullshit! My family's Yao'er had someone take the initiative to teach it to her.

You want to bargain with me?"

Feng Xiao turned to leave, "Then just wait for your appraisal store to be closed."

The appraiser old man pulled on Feng Xiao and almost began to cry, "Sir Secret Envoy, please have mercy.  It isn't that I'm not willing, I just really can't agree to this. Other than this request, I can agree to any other request.  I'll give however much money you want."

Seeing this appraiser old man's "rather die than surrender" display, Feng Xiao had his doubts.  Could the appraisal skill really not be passed to outsiders? Then what happened with Yao'er?

It seems like there's no hope in learning the appraisal technique, but the appraiser old man's words gave him an idea.

Money!

"Fine, then I won't make it hard on you.  Give me ten million gold coins as the fine for your crime.  I will deliver this money into the state treasury." Feng Xiao said with a generous expression.

"Alright, no problem."

Feng Xiao who was waiting for the other side to bargain suddenly swallowed a mouthful of saliva.  He thought he was already fierce enough, but seeing the other side's relaxed expression, he knew he had asked for too little.

He was thinking too shallow.  The players that had appeared in Heavenly Dragon City had reached two-three million, so even if each person only spends 30 gold coins on appraising equipment, adding it together.

This was only in a few days!  In the game's later stage, with more and more higher level equipment and higher appraisal fees, the speed of making money would be..

Feng Xiao felt that his ten million was only a hair on nine oxens.

There was no limit in the gold coins players could have.  Feng Xiao received the ten million and walked out of the appraisal shop in a strong manner.

It was ten million if changed into RMB!

With this money, his plan could be implemented ahead of time.

Feng Xiao suddenly patted his head, "I also forgot to have that old man appraise items for me for free in the future!  This is a large amount of money!"

In the appraisal shop, the appraiser old man's confused brain finally calmed down.  He thought about it and suddenly cursed, "Fuck, I was tricked by that brat! Just this little lie from me can't be considered any kind of crime!"

The first place on the wealth ranking suddenly became ten million which caused a large stir through Rebirth.

Only the mindless Feng Xiao did not know about it.
