Once back, he felt a sense of relief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The familiar environment always provides a sense of security.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He checked the time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thirty-six hours in the Otherworld had passed, while just over seventeen hours had passed in modern society, clearly not a one-to-two ratio.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One: The time ratio between the two worlds is not one-to-two. Due to insufficient samples, it is still uncertain whether the time ratio is always like this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two: Although the Otherworld is not a chaotic era, it’s still not very safe. Fierce bandits roam outside the city and are bold enough to raid execution sites.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The city is relatively better but still requires caution.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Three: From a brief investigation, resources are scarce in the Otherworld. Clothing and food are quite expensive, making life difficult for ordinary people, but housing isn’t costly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The residence on Xieliu Street is already considered a large house, selling for no more than thirty taels. A regular house in the city can be acquired for over ten taels.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A broker’s assistant earns six or seven taels a year, saving half after expenses, and can afford a house in three to four years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ordinary people don’t have a broker’s income, but most families have two earners, and with a few years of hard work, they can also buy a house.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Four: The Otherworld has Martial Arts!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Real Martial Arts, though not capable of destroying the heavens and earth, seem to have a high limit, and top experts are said to be capable of fighting a hundred or even a thousand people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It definitely falls within the extraordinary category!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Five: To be investigated...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Putting down the pen, rubbing his slightly sore face, Fang Zheng sighed softly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Most other things are okay, but the worst part is that world doesn’t have toilet paper, you actually have to use bamboo sticks!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And they even reuse the bamboo sticks!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking of the bamboo sticks inserted into the mud walls of the latrine, the surface yellowed and blackened, used by who knows how many people, made him feel uneasy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He secretly resolved that the next time he traveled there, no matter what else he brought, he definitely had to bring toilet paper!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After spending a day and a half in the Otherworld, constantly on edge, Fang Zheng relaxed upon returning, briefly summarizing his thoughts before washing up and going to sleep.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He slept until the next day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>*\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>*\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>*\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elder Lu, dressed in a Zhongshan suit, rotated the Old Mountain Sandalwood Buddha Beads in his hand as he strolled into the shop, greeting the person inside cleaning:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xiao Fang, busy with something?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Elder Lu.\" Fang Zheng looked up, put down the broom, dusted off his hands, and walked over to greet him:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’ve arrived.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Master Zheng, you’re here too.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another person followed Elder Lu, dressed in a suit, with bright eyes, a well-known jade merchant in Seven Miles, Zheng Yubo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In recent years, live streaming and short videos have become popular, and Zheng Yubo was one of the earliest jade merchants to venture into this field, known for appraising treasures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, with hundreds of thousands of followers on a single app, he’s leveraged this popularity to grow his jade business significantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In just a few years, he has amassed more than ten million in assets starting as a small appraiser, and in Seven Miles, he’s a household name.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zheng Yubo laughed and said, \"I heard Brother Fang here has a few jade bracelets to sell, so I came uninvited, hope I’m not intruding?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not at all.\" Fang Zheng shook his head:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Please have a seat, both of you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He then prepared tea and poured water, bringing over a wooden box, saying:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This morning I went to the Purple Qi Pavilion to visit Elder Lu, but no one was there, so I troubled both of you to come here instead. My apologies, my apologies.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wasn’t feeling well, went to the hospital for a checkup, wasn’t at the shop.\" Elder Lu rubbed his back:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I came right after I got the call.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is Elder Lu alright?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Getting old, usual ailments, nothing major.\" Elder Lu looked at the wooden box and asked:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is this the stuff that Boss Fang left behind?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes.\" Fang Zheng nodded:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don’t know much about Jade Artifacts, so I’d like to ask you both to take a look, and if you could give me an appraisal, that would be ideal.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Opening the box, inside were three bracelets and two jade pendants, all wrapped in red silk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naturally, these items were not Fang Jian’s inheritance but were artifacts Fang Zheng brought from the Otherworld, using his uncle’s name to make them easier to sell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon seeing them, Elder Lu’s eyes shifted slightly. He wiped his hands with a handkerchief before picking up one of the jade pendants for a closer look.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a moment, he looked at Zheng Yubo:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Flower Green Jadeite.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes,\" Zheng Yubo said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s a waxy-based Flower Green Jadeite. Flower Green Jadeite is mid to low range in jade, but a jade pendant of this quality is quite rare.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmm.\" Elder Lu nodded slowly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The shop had various tools for detailed observation, so examining them wasn’t difficult.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What do you two think?\" Fang Zheng asked curiously:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How much could this sell for?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmm...\" Elder Lu thought for a moment and said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mid to high four figures!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zheng Yubo nodded in agreement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In Jade Artifact parlance, one, two, three are called small, four, five, six are called mid, seven, eight, nine are called high, followed by the number of digits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>High four figures mean starting with seven, eight, or nine, in the thousands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few thousand dollars.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Keeping a straight face, Fang Zheng felt slightly disappointed in his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few thousand dollars is not insignificant, but expecting to get rich overnight is out of the question, and jadeite isn’t cheap in the Otherworld either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu’an County is just a county, without many luxury goods to flip.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This one is nice, water jadeite.\" Elder Lu picked up another jade pendant and said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s clear water.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jadeite is categorized into glass, ice, and water jadeite based on transparency, with clear water and purple water being the best in water jadeite.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zheng Yubo estimated the price:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Small five figures!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As an internet celebrity, he appraises hundreds of jade artifacts daily and usually provides an estimate, making him more professional than Elder Lu in this regard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Picking up a bracelet, the two just glanced at it and shook their heads.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"White-based green, average quality, just a few tens of dollars.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Uh...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Zheng looked disappointed as he had spent several taels on it, making it a loss-making purchase.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"These two are good.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zheng Yubo held the last two bracelets up to the sunlight, squinting closely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The light reflected off the bracelets, showing a transparent and beautiful ice-type luster, fitting the jelly-like, glowing qualities, classified as top-grade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Indeed.\" Elder Lu spoke from the side:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The key is, the lines on this pair are almost identical, truly rare.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes.\" Zheng Yubo nodded:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If sold individually, mid five figures would be about right, but sold as a pair, they could fetch mid six figures. I have a follower who’s been looking for a pair of top-quality bracelets for himself and his girlfriend.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I think this pair would be perfect.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Brother Fang, are you willing to sell them? I’ll offer four hundred thousand!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Four hundred thousand!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Zheng’s heart raced, and his breath quickened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elder Lu remained silent, thinking four hundred thousand was slightly high, but jade bracelets are not solely about the quality.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There are other considerations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If matched with the right buyer, prices could double easily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some people are willing to pay tens or hundreds of thousands for watches or bags, and naturally, others are willing to buy jade bracelets.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ring ring ring...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Excuse me for a moment,\" Fang Zheng picked up the phone:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I need to take this call.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He walked to the back and answered the call, and a familiar voice came through.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Monk, later I’m bringing two ladies to Seven Miles.
