The Feng Shui Treasure Appraiser

47: Chapter 47 A Prosperous PopulationHan Jingyang continued the appraisal.

The appraisal results made his mood rise and fall like a roller coaster.

Some items were quite valuable, with market prices exceeding one million, yet the appraisal results were only Grade 7 or even lacked any attributes.

But some items were not very valuable, yet the appraised attributes were quite good, and even the skills were exactly what he needed most.

However, all things considered, he was definitely going to make a profit. If he could find a wealthy buyer, a single ornament with ”Prolonging Life” would be enough to earn back all the money spent tonight, and the rest would be pure profit.

Of course, Zhou Yucheng’s Jingpin Tianxia didn’t lose out either; he sourced the goods at market price, and besides, Manager Wang had even raised the price slightly when quoting.

But that is business—a win-win situation.

It was just that Han Jingyang won even more.

Money, he earned.

Artifacts, he also obtained.

Especially the artifacts; he managed to get several that he needed most all at once.

”Name: Qing Qianlong Famille Rose Celestial Sphere Vase with Hundred Children Pattern.”

”Grade: Grade 6.”

”Attribute: Fertility +5.”

”Skill: Prosperous Offspring.”

This one can be saved for Sun Fuchang, though it is unclear when Sun Fuchang will be able to afford it.

Starting from scratch is not such a simple matter.

”Name: Ming Yongle Blue and White Dish with Sea and Grape Pattern.”

”Grade: Grade 6.”

”Attribute: Fortune Gathering +5.”

”Skill: Long-lasting Good Fortune.”

This plate is quite valuable; Manager Wang asked for 3.5 million.

However, Han Jingyang did not haggle.

Anyway, as long as he could appraise it, even if it had only a single attribute, he could sell it for a higher price.

How does that saying go? You might not lose, but I will definitely earn more.

That is exactly what it means.

In any case, he would never do business at a loss.

It was just that the attribute and skill of this plate made him reluctant to sell it to anyone else; he wanted to keep it for his own use. His whole family needed such a treasure. After all, his family lacked nothing now, and being able to maintain that status would be quite good.

The skill and attribute of this plate were very suitable.

If he were an orphan, he wouldn’t consider these things at all.

”Name: Landscape Painting by Gao Yan of the Qing Dynasty.”

”Grade: Grade 6.”

”Attribute: Comfort +4.”

”Skill: Calm and Composed.”

Gao Yan was a great talent of the Qing Dynasty, quite skilled, but he was not very famous. He had little presence in the history of painting and calligraphy, and in the modern collection industry, he was even more of a nobody.

Therefore, the market price of this painting was only just one hundred thousand.

Han Jingyang spent 120,000, which counted as picking up a great bargain.

Moreover, it was also a good item best suited for personal use; it could greatly enhance the comfort of a residence and was most suitable for adjusting residential Feng Shui.

If he had more similar artifacts, he could truly become a bona fide master of human living environments, capable of adjusting customers’ residences to be more comfortable and more suitable for human habitation.

”Name: Qing Qianlong Hetian Jade Carved Vajra.”

”Grade: Grade 6.”

”Attribute: Demon Subduing +5.”

”Skill: Invincible.”

The Vajra and the Demon-Subduing Pestle are very similar; both were transmitted from India and are most common in Tibetan Buddhism.

Both ends of a Vajra are lantern-shaped and rounded.

Whereas the ends of a Demon-Subduing Pestle, or at least one of them, are sharp triangles, which look more aggressive.

In terms of function, the Vajra is for cultivating achievements and blessing techniques.

While the Demon-Subduing Pestle is for cultivating subjugation techniques.

To put it bluntly, the Vajra is a staff used by sorcerers that can add or remove buffs, while the Demon-Subduing Pestle is exclusively for warriors and is a melee weapon.

Of course, this analogy is not entirely accurate, but that is roughly the meaning.

So upon seeing the Invincible skill, Han Jingyang roughly understood the effect of this skill. Unsurprisingly, it should be a skill that can be applied to weapons or artifacts, capable of enhancing the strength or certain attributes of the weapon or artifact.

Whether it is exactly as he speculated remains to be studied.

Regardless, for him right now, it is a significant improvement.

At this time, every additional artifact like this can increase his winning percentage when confronting He Dingkun.

But compared to another artifact, this Vajra really is nothing.

”Name: Warring States Period Gold and Silver Inlaid Bronze Sword.”

”Grade: Grade 5.”

”Attribute: Majesty +9.”

”Skill: Lip-Gun and Tongue-Sword.”

A Grade 5 artifact.

This is the second Grade 5 artifact in his possession, and it is also the attack-type artifact he needs most right now.

The attribute doesn’t really matter; Majesty is sometimes useful, but most of the time it is useless.

But the Lip-Gun and Tongue-Sword skill is a good thing.

If it is that ”Lip-Gun and Tongue-Sword” that he understands, then killing He Dingkun would be like slaughtering a chicken.

The only inconvenience is that this type of artifact is really not suitable for carrying around.

It might not be strictly regulated abroad.

But domestically, it would be quite troublesome if discovered. Even if he could explain it clearly in the end, it would delay matters. It is not suitable for use in public places and can only be used secretly.

Of course, any artifact that can kill He Dingkun is a good artifact.

”Name: Qing Daoguang Hainan Rosewood Lounge Chair.”

”Grade: Grade 6.”

”Attribute: Comfort +4.”

”Skill: Tendon-Stretching and Bone-Extension.”

Regarding this lounge chair, Han Jingyang indicated that he had no intention of selling it at all; he just wanted to keep it for his own enjoyment.

The skill doesn’t matter; the attribute of Comfort is what is most important.

He placed the lounge chair by the coffee table and lay on it; it was indeed much more comfortable than an ordinary lounge chair or even a bed.

Moreover, it was not just physical comfort, but a feeling of mental and physical relief; lying on it, he didn’t even want to get up.

Liu Jing saw Han Jingyang’s actions and couldn’t help but lean in: ”Boss, is this chair also... a dharma instrument?”

”Yes.”

”What is it used for?”

”Does being comfortable when lying on it count as a use?”

”It counts, of course it counts,” Liu Jing’s eyes lit up: ”Boss, let me try it, please.”

Han Jingyang got up, gave the lounge chair to Liu Jing, and continued to appraise the remaining items.

Liu Jing slumped onto the lounge chair and immediately let out an ”Oh my”: ”It’s so comfortable! Boss, stop being a charlatan and sell furniture instead. If all furniture could be this comfortable, you would soon become the leader of the furniture industry.”

Han Jingyang shook his head: ”I would like to, but unfortunately, my strength doesn’t allow it.”

”Hey, Boss, it’s really comfortable. When will you collect a whole set? Putting them in the shop, just thinking about it makes me happy.”

”You just want to freeload on sleep, right?”

”Hehe, as expected of you, Boss, you understand me. Boss, how much are you planning to sell this chair for?”

”Not for sale, keeping it for my own use.”

”Boss is wise.”

While chatting and laughing, Han Jingyang finished appraising and categorizing all the remaining items. Checking the time, it was not yet eleven o’clock.

But that Chen Xiaoming still hadn’t contacted him.

This made him feel a little anxious.

It wasn’t that he was worried about being scammed, but rather worried about delaying the important matter.

Offending He Dingkun, the only way to survive is to strike first. If He Dingkun were allowed to strike first, not only would he himself become a target of attack, but his family and friends would also have to live in fear.

Therefore, time was extremely precious to him.

But without accurate information, there was nothing he could do. He couldn’t just go out on the street and try his luck, right?

As time passed, he became increasingly anxious.

However, just as the clock passed twelve o’clock, a stranger with the nickname Juhao applied to add him as a friend.
