scratch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This box has at least two hundred coins, probably not earned in Long Winter Town, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De was thoughtful, looking at Durant, \"Two hundred Gold Coins, do you think Sloer is merely the nephew of the Count of Rock Shield Mountain?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You mean, illegitimate child?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Durant immediately understood Luo De’s meaning, \"Those two hundred Gold Coins are not a small amount.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Looks like we also need to pay attention to the news of the Shield-Breaker Clan.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De put the wooden box aside, gesturing to Vivian to count them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De then picked up another wooden box, inside of which was a Dagger embedded with gemstones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The handle was carved from ivory, wrapped with gold thread.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The blade was sharp as new, gleaming with a cold light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De’s eyes brightened, then he tried to sense it spiritually, and sighed helplessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Seems it’s just a piece of craftwork.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De casually placed it aside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De was not interested in such craftwork, better to exchange it for Gold Coins to buy slaves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Can’t blame Luo De for being proud.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now the Daggers forged in Frost Leaf Town all come with Armor-Piercing enchantments, such craftworks are useless no matter how beautiful they are.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De opened several more boxes, all containing craftwork jewelry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De casually tossed one to Durant, \"Inside there’s a necklace, pretty nice, give it to Stella.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thank you for your gift.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Durant bowed in gratitude, \"Honestly, I’ve never given her any decent accessories.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After that, Durant took out the pearl necklace from the box and tucked it into his bosom, while the wooden box was tossed aside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This wooden box is quite delicate, I think it would be better to give it with the necklace.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De reminded him, adding a phrase, \"Just a personal opinion, not authoritative.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De himself is only involved with Avril, not qualified to give such guidance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, oh.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Durant thought for a moment and took out the necklace again, putting it back into the wooden box and tidying up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De laid other wooden boxes on the table, saying to Vivian, \"There are some jewelry and gemstone accessories, pick whichever you like.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De remembered he hadn’t given himself any gifts either and added, \"Choose something for your sister as well.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Baron, can only pick one?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vivian asked cautiously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course not, if you like them, take them all for you two.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De pushed the box forward slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a few pieces of jewelry, Luo De would not be stingy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thank you, Baron!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vivian left the Gold Coin box and started selecting jewelry from each box.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Indeed, women still like some pretty things.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De snapped back, his eyes fixed on the other wooden boxes in the chest,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Where are the Extraordinary gemstones, Sloer might not be deceiving me, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De’s entry as an Extraordinary Lord was still a long way from completion, urgently needing the Extraordinary gemstones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, Luo De opened the wooden box in his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Eh?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De’s eyes brightened — inside the box lay a palm-sized badge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De reached out to pick it up, a sense of coldness spread from his fingertips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The badge was made of dim metal, with a bronze sheen but unusually heavy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It appeared neither like copper nor iron.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The badge was nearly circular, one side had spiral line patterns.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While the other side was engraved with intricate designs, lines as thin as hair, densely packed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Looks like Wizard Runes...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De guessed, but couldn’t sense any Magic Power fluctuations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De didn’t hesitate, closed his eyes, and gently extended his Spiritual Power toward the badge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A cold wave instantly surged, making Luo De shiver.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His Spiritual Power continued to explore forward, when Luo De suddenly felt an invisible resistance coming over, like bumping into an unseen membrane with his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De gave a powerful thrust, and got bounced back instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Interesting.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite the obstruction, Luo De didn’t feel any frustration, instead, a smile appeared on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After searching for so long, he finally discovered something good.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though still unknown, anything that could resist Luo De’s Spiritual Power of thirteen-point-four was definitely not an ordinary object.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Stop picking accessories, Vivian.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De placed the ancient badge in front of Vivian, \"Take a good look, have your sister check some alchemy references, see what this is.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vivian set down the jewelry she held and focused on the badge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De then resumed searching.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, the rest were of little value, all jewelry and craftworks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While the other boxes contained animal hides and herbs, of certain value, but nothing surprising.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De suddenly felt a bit disappointed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That liar talks nonsense.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De cursed under his breath, waved his hand, \"Have the Guard pack these things into the box and take them back to Frost Leaf Town.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, Baron.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Durant nodded, immediately calling the Guard over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As preparations were underway, Luo De decided to take one last look.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And just that glance revealed something amiss.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Durant, do you see if the inside of these two boxes is uneven?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De pointed inside and asked, \"Look at this box holding the animal hides, is the inside higher?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without waiting for Durant’s answer, Luo De squatted down, tapping the bottom of the box.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thud, thud, thud.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The wood, which was supposed to be solid, sounded somewhat hollow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De’s mouth curved up, \"Open up the bottom for me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, Sir.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Durant displayed the dagger, fingers searching along the wood grain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the left corner, Durant found a nearly invisible seam.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Durant pried the bottom wood panel with the dagger, a slight clicking sound was heard, and one corner of the entire panel lifted up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Indeed, with a gentle force, the panel came up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sir, there’s really a secret compartment!\" Durant exclaimed with joy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De nodded, examining the inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside was a neatly arranged compartment, stuffed with animal hides as padding, containing layers of Extraordinary gemstones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were four in total, green, red, blue, and purple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All were what Luo De needed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And in the fifth largest compartment, there was also a palm-sized scroll.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Seems Sloer wasn’t lying.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Joy spread across Luo De’s face as he took and pocketed the Extraordinary gemstones one by one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then Luo De took out the scroll for a closer look.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sir, this looks similar to the scroll Sloer had.\" Durant reminded him, \"It’s the one with the paralyzing effect.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmm.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De nodded, \"Hold onto this for study back home.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unknown things, plus prior experience, are not to be opened lightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De placed the scroll back in the box, instructing, \"Pack up the rest.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, Sir.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Durant nodded, just about to leave when Luo De called him back,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Also, have the Guard bring Vika here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1152,"2026-05-30T15:19:45.195Z","2026-06-01T04:31:34.172Z",1,"novelbin.me","195be00a2ccf6fd792c37154d28b9cce8315718cd1479001d149e2737df80ae7","farming-with-entries-from-lord-to-emperor-chapter-495","farming-with-entries-from-lord-to-emperor-chapter-493",776,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ffarming-with-entries-from-lord-to-emperor-cover.jpg"]
