"All these are useless things, just deal with them, my bank card PIN is 123456," she said. The beautiful boss, Qian Shanxue, turned and left. But this time, instead of using the door, her figure flashed and she exited through the window.
Shen Qiang felt helpless and choked, but fortunately, she left behind her bank card and many magical treasures, which were crucial for successfully bidding on the Illusion Butterfly Silk on Saturday. So now was not the time for Shen Qiang to concern himself with her actions.
He logged into his mobile banking and checked; in Qian Shanxue's bank account, there was a deposit of 31.25 million.
Just with this money alone, it was clearly not enough to participate in the Cheng Xinyi auction.
But the numerous magical treasures in front of him suddenly caught Shen Qiang's eye.
"Spiritual Artifact, Spiritual Artifact, Magic Artifact, Spiritual Artifact..."
Shen Qiang activated the Observing the Micro Skill and began to observe and count.
In fact, magical treasures are a general term used by cultivators for items in use.
They generally possess some properties that ordinary items do not have.
However, due to the differing abilities of the forgers, there is also a distinction in grades.
The common tools used by ordinary cultivators are usually spiritual artifacts.
Those that surpass ordinary tools are called magic artifacts.
Magical treasures forged by those who have attained Immortal abilities are called Immortal Artifacts.
Clearly, Shen Qiang possessed two Immortal Artifacts, one of which was a Furnace Tripod sealed by an Immortal Sealing Technique.
It had circulated in the Cultivation World for a long time, passing through many hands, always unable to unlock the seal, so it was relatively cheap when purchased from Wan Xin He Sheng, costing only a few tens of millions.
The other was Star Moon's Protection.
He obtained it from the Dragon Group's store in exchange for two hundred jin of Gathering Qi Powder.
In normal circumstances, the likelihood of buying an Immortal Artifact with money is almost minuscule.
Usually, in the Cultivation World, the most commonly bought and traded items are spiritual artifacts.
Generally crafted by Forging Masters at the Nascent Soul Stage or above, the most common and abundant are various types of Flying Swords but the quality and materials vary greatly.
Occasionally, a small amount of armor can be seen.
As for magic artifacts, they are already considered high-end good items in the Cultivation World.
Whether it is quality, forging craftsmanship, or even the engraved arrays, all aspects are exceptionally outstanding, already containing some basic principles of cultivation. Thus, in the Cultivation World, whether one possesses a powerful magic artifact is also a standard to measure the strength of a cultivator.
And spiritual artifacts, magic artifacts, and immortal artifacts usually have four grading standards.
These are Lower Grade, Middle Grade, Top Grade, and although spiritual artifacts, some possess capabilities comparable to magic artifacts, considered as top-notch.
Based on such grading, the price of a magical treasure can roughly be estimated within a certain range.
But there are occasionally surprises.
For instance, the Intensely Focused Necklace, engraved with Loden Stone that Ali has long coveted, is absolutely a piece of top-notch gear for her needs of concentrating on simulating crime scenes, but for Shen Qiang, who requires flexible and adaptable thinking, that item is trash.
If both of them were to bid on that necklace at the same time.
The price would obviously vary by miles.
But this large pile of magical treasures, after being appraised by the Observing the Micro Skill, the best item is only a Middle Grade Magic Artifact, there are three Lower Grade Magic Artifacts, and the rest are all Spiritual Artifacts, with low-rank Spiritual Artifacts making up the vast majority.
Especially the most basic Lower Level Spiritual Artifacts, which make up over seventy percent of these artifacts.
Shen Qiang was relieved to find, among the Spiritual Artifacts, two top-grade ones and three high-grade ones.
With the Magic Artifacts included, there were nine in total, barely catching his eye.
"They are indeed all trash," Shen Qiang sighed, but then an idea struck him, and he meticulously inspected these Magical Treasures, ultimately confirming that the curved sword used by the burly man killed by Qian Shanxue during their last mission was not among these artifacts.
"Oh, it seems that these items were indeed discarded by Qian Shanxue after her screening. In that case, using them to make money is simply perfect."
He took out his phone, opened the Wan Xinhe Sheng mobile app, and checked the starting bid prices for other Spiritual Artifacts.
Shen Qiang discovered that even the starting price for the worst low-grade Spiritual Artifacts was over one million, while for Magic Artifacts, the starting price was ten million.
These hundred or so Magical Treasures, even if priced at one million each, would be worth at least one hundred million.
"Indeed, war is the strongest way to make a fortune! These are just the trash Qian Shanxue was ready to throw away; if she were to sell those good things she has collected, the wealth contained in just the Magical Treasures alone would be astonishing!"
Shen Qiang was utterly shocked.
Nevertheless, he decisively made a call to Xu Nan.
After confirming she was at the shop, Shen Qiang stored all the Magical Treasures in his Storage Ring and hurriedly rushed to the Wan Xinhe Sheng auction house.
Upon arriving at the auction house, Shen Qiang succinctly explained that he was handling a batch of Magical Treasures for someone else.
Xu Nan expressed understanding.
However, when Shen Qiang dumped more than a hundred Magical Treasures in front of Xu Nan, she was still shocked.
"Shen Qiang, did you wipe out someone's sect?"
Shen Qiang was astounded, "No, these were entrusted to me by someone else."
"My goodness, this is insane! These Magical Treasures alone could support a small cultivation sect!"
Looking at Xu Nan, Shen Qiang spoke earnestly, "Honestly, I am planning to buy Illusion Butterfly Silk on Saturday, so for Friday's auction, I was hoping you could help sell off some more Magical Treasures."
Xu Nan smiled, "Oh, that's the case. You can rest assured; if you don't have enough money, I might be able to provide some help."
Shen Qiang laughed, "You're already my biggest creditor. Aren't you afraid I might owe too much and be unable to pay it back?"
Xu Nan smiled, "If you really can't pay it back in the future, you can always come work at Wan Xinhe Sheng."
Shen Qiang laughed, and Xu Nan laughed as well.
Selling more than a hundred Magical Treasures was indeed no small matter for either Shen Qiang or Xu Nan. Since Shen Qiang brought the items, of course, it couldn't just go as Shen Qiang said.
They called in an Appraiser; while appraising, they catalogued and as night fell, they had only completed half of the appraisal work.
Xu Nan ordered some takeout.
They ate simply together, and since Shen Qiang's new store was right across from Wan Xinhe Sheng, they had a lot in common to discuss about Shen Qiang's new store, which kept them from getting bored.
Time unconsciously slipped by to ten at night, by which time all the items had been appraised and accounted for.
Bidding Xu Nan goodbye, Shen Qiang left Wan Xinhe Sheng feeling refreshed and clear-headed.
His phone rang in his pocket; taking it out, he saw to his surprise that it was a video call from an unknown number.
Curiously, Shen Qiang answered the call.
The phone screen flickered, and the scene that appeared was a small kitchen, where a shapely housewife, head covered in sweat, was preparing dumpling filling. Even from her back alone, Shen Qiang recognized that this woman was Gao Hui.
