Chapter 25: Buying the box and returning the pearl
Mentioning Jiang Han, Bai Chengliang laughed loudly:
"Hahaha, almost forgot that sucker. Brother-in-law is truly willing, willing to use all his net worth to buy gifts. If Father knew, he would definitely be very moved."
Yang Yu said to Tang Chi: "Little Tang, just spend according to 200,000."
"It's fine if it exceeds it, I'll make up the difference." Bai Chengliang said heroically.
Yang Yu was a little moved; this brother-in-law, although a bit cheap, was truly a good guy.
"Follow me, both of you." Tang Chi thought for a moment and led them towards the stairs.
The higher the floor, the higher the price of the goods in Baibao Pavilion.
The goods on the first floor were relatively low in price, mostly in the hundreds or thousands of taels. Most martial artists could afford them.
The unit price on the second floor was all over 10,000.
Yang Yu's budget was 200,000, so Tang Chi took him directly to the third floor.
The prices of goods on the third floor were mostly over 100,000. Often, only experts or children of large families could afford them.
After Yang Yu came up, he saw rows of shelves with all kinds of items.
Bottles and jars, books and secret manuals, and many strange objects and spiritual medicines.
The four walls were covered with weapons.
Just one look, and the quality of these weapons was not low.
"The Bai Family Head has practiced for half a lifetime, so he shouldn't be lacking martial arts at this level; Young Master Yang can consider using pills as gifts, such as Spirit-Nourishing Pills, which are very practical."
"As for the gift for Madam Bai... women mostly love beauty, so sending her Beauty-Nourishing Pills will definitely not go wrong."
"Coincidentally, the prices of these two pills are both a little over 100,000. Young Master Bai is a regular customer here, so the small change can be wiped off directly."
Tang Chi pointed to two small jade bottles and recommended them to Yang Yu.
"Hm, let me think."
Yang Yu didn't decide immediately.
Sending pills was indeed a safe choice.
But it felt a bit formulaic and a bit boring.
"Or, you can consider some antiques, calligraphy, and paintings, or treasure tool fragments. Such gifts may not be beneficial for cultivation, but the recipient will often be very surprised."
Tang Chi added.
Yang Yu nodded in agreement.
He had similar experiences in his previous life.
For example, if you give a gift to a leader's child and spend 3,000 yuan on a computer, the other party might not be interested and might even be dissatisfied.
But if you spend 3,000 yuan on a cool keyboard, they will definitely be very excited and even take photos to show off to friends.
Giving gifts is either about sending something the other party really needs.
Like giving alcohol to a drunkard or a foot massage card to a lecher.
Or it's about sending something the other party likes, but with low cost-effectiveness, and they wouldn't usually spend money to buy it.
Both methods are easier to provide emotional value.
And as the Family Head, what Bai Sheng needs most is naturally Heaven-grade or Earth-grade martial arts.
But Yang Yu couldn't afford that.
Martial arts at the 100,000 price point had no attraction for Bai Sheng.
But taking this money to buy antiques, calligraphy, and paintings, or other strange objects, would have more novelty and provide more emotional value.
"Young Master Yang, this Seven-Star Glazed Bottle is quite good. This object originates from the previous dynasty and has been around for over a thousand years..."
"Oh, and this one, this thing is even more interesting. After Baibao Pavilion's appraisal, it is a damaged treasure tool. Although it has lost its effect, it still retains some mysterious patterns, perhaps it has other uses."
Tang Chi saw Yang Yu was moved and took the initiative to introduce them.
Yang Yu looked while activating his Scan skill.
Although he had already refreshed entries several times today, there were many things here, and their value was high; maybe he would refresh something else?
After scanning row by row, he found nothing.
"Also, Young Master Yang can look at this calligraphy and painting, it is a work by the famous Zhou Xiaoyao..."
Tang Chi continued to introduce.
Yang Yu was looking at it absent-mindedly when his eyes suddenly lit up.
He hadn't found any entries on various goods, but unexpectedly, he scanned an entry on a storage shelf.
Yang Yu pointed to the storage shelf next to it and said: "Is this thing for sale?"
Tang Chi followed his finger and landed on a secret manual on the shelf: "This is an Earth-grade low-rank martial art, is Young Master Yang sure you want it? This thing is quite good for ordinary martial artists, but for the Bai Family Head, it might be a bit low..."
"Uh, I don't want the martial art, I'm asking you, is this shelf for sale?" Yang Yu gave a dry laugh.
Extracting entries from objects required touching them for ten minutes.
But in this kind of occasion, in front of people in the shop, touching a storage shelf for ten minutes would be quite embarrassing.
So he thought, maybe just buy it home.
But after actually opening his mouth, he felt it was even more embarrassing...
What kind of good person would want to buy a storage shelf?
"Ah?"
Tang Chi was also stunned.
"What, brother-in-law, you want to buy a shelf?" Bai Chengliang said in disbelief, "You wouldn't want to use this as a gift for our Father, would you?"
Yang Yu coughed dryly and said: "Certainly not, I just like it myself. Forget it, forget it, I just mentioned it casually."
As he spoke, he walked straight to the side of this storage shelf and placed his palm on it.
It was embarrassing either way, so extract it early and enjoy it early.
【Ding, extraction of entry started, countdown ten minutes...】
The system immediately gave a prompt sound.
"Brother-in-law, what's so good about this shelf?"
Bai Chengliang also walked over, suspicious.
Yang Yu pretended to be indifferent and said: "It just catches my eye; this design, this pattern, hm... has great artistic accomplishment."
Bai Chengliang looked at it carefully for a while and muttered: "I don't see anything; it's just an ordinary storage shelf. There are plenty of the same shelves in the shop."
Yang Yu was speechless.
Isn't that right, there are many shelves in the shop.
But it just happened that this shelf had an entry refreshed on it.
What can I do?
"Uh, Young Master Yang, why don't I tell the Pavilion Master and give this shelf to you."
Tang Chi also had a strange expression.
He had never seen such a strange guest.
There were so many precious treasures in the shop, could it be that they weren't as good-looking as a shelf?
"No need, continue picking gifts, tell me what's in this jade bottle."
Yang Yu changed the subject and said.
The extraction had already started the countdown, no need to toss and turn anymore.
"Young Master Yang, what's in this bottle is a rare spiritual medicine, named Moon-Born Milk..."
Tang Chi continued to explain energetically.
In fact, Yang Yu wasn't listening at all, but was silently communicating with the system.
The entry refreshed on the storage shelf was called—Superb Appraisal Technique.
He really wanted to know, how superb is this Superb Appraisal Technique? ===== CHAPTER 26 =====
In fact, Yang Yu hadn't been listening at all; he was silently communicating with the system.
The entry brushed onto the shelf was called—Super Peerless Appraisal Technique.
He really wanted to know, just how "peerless" was this Super Peerless Appraisal Technique?
