Old Ghost was quite famous in the antique market.
His reputation was built on scamming newbies.
He peddled all sorts of fakes, preying on those hoping to find a bargain!
With his dusty clothes and simple demeanor, he made himself look like prey.
In reality, he was the hunter!
Ye Yun naturally knew none of this.
However, the moment he saw the man pull open his backpack,
A prominent round ancient coin in the corner immediately made Ye Yun's heart skip a beat.
Though only an edge was visible and the whole coin couldn't be seen,
This single corner, just like the Heaven's Favor Treasure, was enough to make Ye Yun tremble with excitement.
"Let's go, take a look." Ye Yun suppressed his surging excitement and said calmly.
Seeing Ye Yun agree, a glint of joy flashed deep in Old Ghost's eyes.
He quickly led Ye Yun to a corner, as if afraid of being discovered.
Old Ghost cautiously scanned his surroundings. Once he was sure no one was watching, he unzipped his backpack, revealing its contents.
"How much for this coin?"
Ye Yun crouched down, picked up the ancient coin, and played with it for a moment before asking.
He had already confirmed it.
The rumors from his past life in the antique market were true.
The Heaven's Favor Treasure had appeared, and it was indeed picked up by a nobody.
He didn't know how the Old Ghost in front of him had obtained it,
But it was undoubtedly a great treasure!
"Hmm?" Seeing Ye Yun's interest, Old Ghost was ecstatic.
He had been observing Ye Yun all day and knew this guy was an amateur, clearly waiting to be fleeced!
"This item was passed down from my ancestors. If my wife hadn't fallen ill, I would never part with this heirloom."
Old Ghost put on a pained expression, a performance worthy of an Oscar.
If Ye Yun hadn't known that in his past life, the scoundrel had bought it for five thousand yuan, he would have truly believed it was Old Ghost's heirloom.
"Heirloom?"
Ye Yun shifted slightly.
"Yes!"
Old Ghost's heart sang with joy.
This fool had fallen for it!
An heirloom was so valuable.
It seemed he would make a fortune today!
Tonight, should he go to Xian Shang Ren Jian or be the Emperor of Baths?
Old Ghost was already fantasizing about the good times to come.
Damn it!
He was definitely going to rip off this idiot today and call ten masseuses!
"Ah, then never mind." Ye Yun quickly put it down. "I can't buy your heirloom, so I don't want it."
"?" This time, it was Old Ghost's turn to be bewildered.
Damn it!
This guy wasn't a money-making machine, but a naive fool!
He had made it so clear.
The emphasis was on "heirloom," implying its value!
It wasn't a treasure he desperately needed!
"Brother, please, just do me a favor. My wife is sick, and I have three children in school... You should buy it."
Old Ghost spun a heart-wrenching tale, his sole aim being for Ye Yun to buy the ancient coin.
In reality, he had bought these wholesale for ten yuan each at a market.
The only difference was that he had buried the coins in soil for two months.
"Alright... alright." Ye Yun patted Old Ghost's shoulder and said sincerely, "Master, your life is too hard. Don't worry, I will take good care of your heirloom. If you have money later, you can come to me to buy it back."
Only a fool would—
Just as the middle-aged beautiful woman's eyes fell upon Ye Yun, she gave a slight start.
"Auntie, what's wrong?"
The young woman asked curiously.
The middle-aged beauty remained silent, her gaze fixed on Ye Yun as she smiled.
"Little brother Ye Yun, is that you? We truly are fated."
