Chapter 348
Li Country is adjacent to Yun Country and Shen Country, located in the southwest of the mainland, near the sea.

Xiao Muying, Yun Qingjin and their party flaunted all the way out of Xiaocheng, and when they arrived at Yanghai City, the capital of Li Kingdom, it was already eight days later.

At that time, it was the end of autumn, the weather turned from hot to cool, and the Li country near the sea was even cooler.

It was afternoon when Xiao Muying and Yun Qingjin arrived in Yanghai City, under Xiao Muying's signal, they did not immediately go to the palace to pay a visit to Duke Li, but first found an inn in the city and settled down.

The reason for this is because Xiao Muying heard a piece of news when she entered the city.

Just after Xiao Muying and Yun Qingjin entered the city, people in the city were talking about a jade pendant from the sky. It is said that just a few days ago, a farmer brought a jade pendant with a dragon and phoenix pattern into the city. According to the farmer, that It was when he was doing farm work that a stone suddenly fell from the sky and hit him on the head. He saw that the stone was faintly shining with divine light, so he took it home. A beautiful jade like a dragon and a phoenix.

The farmer came to the pawnshop in the city to inquire about the price, but the price given by the pawnshop was not high, so he set up a small stall in the downtown area of ​​the city. There was only this piece of jade pendant on the stall, and the asking price was one thousand dollars.Due to the scarcity of small knives along the coast of the Li country, knife coins have been in circulation for hundreds of years. Generally speaking, knife coins are made of copper. If they are gold and silver, they will be called gold coins or silver coins.

The farmer's stall was set up, but there were many inquiries about the price, but not half of the people actually bought it. Most of the people in the city gathered around the farmer's stall with the mentality of watching the excitement. After a few days, the farmer's stall turned out to be It has become the busiest place in downtown.

At that time, several businessmen from other countries went to the farmers to ask the price, and after seeing the jade pendant, they praised the excellent quality of the jade.It's just that in the end they said that this jade pendant was a divine jade from heaven, and if it wasn't for noble people who couldn't have it, or ordinary people couldn't resist the nobility of the jade, they would definitely be hurt by it.

More than a dozen businessmen said in unison, and they all put down their jade pendants with great reluctance, and drifted away.

As the saying goes, three people make a tiger, not to mention the people who watched the excitement at the booth passed it on by word of mouth, so the legend of the divine jade from the sky spread in Yanghai City, and it became a topic of conversation for everyone after dinner.

Until later, many nobles and nobles in the city went to the downtown area to watch the jade, and started a fight for it. However, the farmer was a smart man. During the fight among the nobles, he suddenly declared that the jade was worth a thousand dollars. The coins are no longer sold, and the jade must be sent to the auction house, and the one with the highest price will get it.

The only auction house in the city was very happy to accept the divine jade sent by the farmer. After all, their auction house can draw commissions for the items sold at their auction. Sell ​​for a good price.

When Xiao Muying and Yun Qingjin came to Yanghai City, they happened to know that the auction time of the divine jade was tomorrow. Xiao Muying didn't believe the legend of the so-called divine jade from heaven at all, but she signaled to Yun thoughtfully. Qing Jin waited until after tomorrow to enter the palace, claiming that she might take the opportunity to buy that piece of divine jade and use it to befriend Li Guogong.

Yun Qingjin agreed without hesitation. The two of them were a little tired after traveling all the way, so they went back to their rooms early and night to rest, and planned to get up early tomorrow to go to the auction house to see the excitement.
