Chapter 110 Taishan Sword Sect (2)
“Good heavens! If we could sell all of this, our trading house could become one of the wealthiest in Zhonghua.”
Bai Qian spoke in a trembling voice, yet he couldn’t quite believe this was real.
And no wonder—the sheer level of craftsmanship evident at first glance was extraordinary.
He prided himself on having cultivated an eye for beauty over the years, having seen thousands upon thousands of items, but what Gu Yangji had brought was no ordinary thing.
It was easily among the top five items he had ever seen in his entire life.
As Bai Qian abruptly raised his head, Gu Yangji whistled lightly.
“To safely escort an item of this caliber, truly no one is more suitable than the head of the merchant guild.”
“Are you truly entrusting this to me? It would be better to give it to someone who doesn’t know its value.”
At those words, Gu Yangji studied Baekcheon intently, then suddenly parted his lips.
“Do not put yourself to the test.”
“……”
“If you think I entrusted this to the head of the merchant guild for some hidden reason, you are mistaken. Though I may have many secrets, I would never measure my allies by some arbitrary standard or act like a fool.”
Baek Cheon admitted honestly.
“I apologize, Great Hero.”
“I understand your thoughts. Asking someone to escort items of unknown origin, brought by a person who suddenly vanished, must be a heavy burden.”
And these were treasures, each one so valuable that refusing them would warrant a loud outcry.
