The faces of the people opposite were extremely grim. The powerful Takeda Ichiro had been defeated in a single move. Who had this opponent invited?
But the rules of the boxing match were very clear: losing meant giving up the benefits, and they had no chance to turn the tables.
The remaining matters did not require Ye Tian's involvement. He got into Kyusuo Tamaki's car and left the stadium ahead of time.
In the car, Ye Tian took out the gem. It was a light blue color. Holding it in his hand, a gentle energy seeped into his palm and then into his body.
Ye Tian could feel that this energy was beneficial to his Nascent Soul. Its function seemed to be to enhance spiritual power.
He put away the gem and said, "I'll go back and treat your mother. I'll return to the country tomorrow."
Kyusuo Tamaki said, "Thank you, sir!"
Returning to the Lan family, Ye Tian first treated Kyusuo Tamaki's mother. After the treatment, Lan Feng and Yuan Kemin also returned. They had already obtained control of the company.
The next day, Ye Tian signed the equity transfer agreement with the Seiryuu Zaibatsu. Ye Tian purchased forty percent of the shares of Kyushi Company, which researched gene editing, for two million US dollars.
For the remaining time, Kyusuo Tamaki took Ye Tian sightseeing, and soon it was time for Tang City to open.
Tang City was located at an old pier, with all the stalls on boats. To attend Tang City, one had to rent a small boat, row on the sea, stop when one saw something one wanted, and negotiate with the people on the opposite boat.
All the boats were the same. There were connecting hooks at the gunwales. During transactions, adjacent boats could be hooked together.
Kyusuo Tamaki accompanied Ye Tian to rent a small boat to participate in Tang City. Kyusuo Tamaki was responsible for rowing, while Ye Tian observed his surroundings to see if there was anything he needed.
After the boat had traveled a hundred meters, small boats on both sides gradually increased. They sold all sorts of things. On one of the boats, Ye Tian even saw missiles.
Suddenly, he noticed a boat with several huge clams, over a meter and a half in diameter. The shells had dark red patterns.
This was Ye Tian's first time seeing such large sea clams, and he couldn't help but look at them a few more times. As he looked, he felt the sea clams emitting a faint red light. The red light was not real, but rather his Nascent Soul sensed it; it was a form of energy.
He signaled Kyusuo Tamaki to bring the boat closer and hook it to the other boat. The seller was a fisherman, sitting there with a young boy.
Kyusuo Tamaki asked, "How much are these clams?"
The fisherman held up five fingers and said, "Fifty million yen."
Fifty million was almost two and a half million, which was not a low price.
Ye Tian asked, "Is it fifty million each?"
The fisherman nodded.
Ye Tian stepped forward, knocked twice, and pointed to one of the clams, saying, "This one."
Kyusuo Tamaki paid the fisherman fifty million yen. Ye Tian clapped his right hand, and the clam uncontrollably opened its large mouth. Then Ye Tian reached in and dug out a red clam pearl from the clam meat.
Seeing this, the fisherman's eyes widened and he said, "There's a clam pearl!"
After taking the clam pearl, Ye Tian directly threw the clam into the sea and smiled at the fisherman, "If you knew there was a clam pearl, wouldn't you have bid more than fifty million?"
The fisherman sighed, "If I had known it had a clam pearl, I wouldn't have sold it for five hundred million."
Kyusuo Tamaki curiously took the clam pearl. She felt it was soft, emitting a faint red light, and smelled it. There was also a hint of fragrance.
She asked, "Sir, this red pearl is very strange."
Ye Tian said, "That clam was at least a thousand years old. This is a thousand-year clam pearl. It has spiritual properties and can be used in medicine."
Kyusuo Tamaki smiled and said, "I didn't expect we'd find treasure as soon as we arrived. It's thanks to your keen eye, sir. If it were me, I would have missed it."
After that, Ye Tian didn't find much for a long time and only bought a few small trinkets. As he was preparing to head back, he noticed a dense fog rising far from the shore. Several ancient ships, with wooden structures, were docked at the edge.
Ye Tian asked Kyusuo Tamaki, "What are those ships for?"
Kyusuo Tamaki glanced at them, her expression changing slightly, and said, "Sir, those are ghost ships. Anyone who approaches them will meet with misfortune."
Ye Tian asked, "Ghost ships? Why are they appearing near Tang City?"
Kyusuo Tamaki replied, "That I don't know. Fishermen usually avoid such ships as much as possible."
Ye Tian said, "Let's go closer."
Kyusuo Tamaki's pretty face turned pale. "Sir, let's not go over there."
