Chapter 28: Playing so big

"Presumptuous, in front of Master, you still dare to be stubborn?" Li Wei roared, "Master, look, what kind of person is this, how rude!"

"Enough, whether it is true or false, I will decide."

Lu Xiuyuan scolded.

In fact, he didn't think this White Feather Snow Ginseng was fake either.

After all, he had personally collected it.

It's just that this Yang Yu was calm and composed, his tone flat and certain, not like he was talking nonsense.

Instead, he had a kind of master's demeanor.

Logically speaking, a son-in-law of the Bai Family shouldn't have this kind of tone.

Lu Xiuyuan looked at him with doubts and asked again: "May I ask, young friend Yang Yu, what details did you use to judge this item as a fake? To be honest, I have seen this kind of heavenly treasure many times and don't feel there is any problem with this one."

Although Li Wei was very annoying, this Pavilion Master was still quite qualified and didn't put on airs.

Therefore, Yang Yu still gave him some face, bowed slightly and said: "Pavilion Master is too polite, I don't deserve to be asked. This spiritual medicine is actually a Vermilion Spirit Ginseng, it just happens that from the appearance and texture, it is exactly the same as the White Feather Snow Ginseng."

Li Wei suddenly laughed out loud:

"You are too ridiculous, Vermilion Spirit Ginseng is a common medicine, and its value is not high, how could it be used to impersonate White Feather Snow Ginseng?"

"The most critical thing is, Vermilion Spirit Ginseng is vermilion, and White Feather Snow Ginseng is snow-white. You don't even need an appraiser; anyone with eyes can tell the difference! Yet you say this is Vermilion Spirit Ginseng; are you stupid, or do you think we are fools?"

Lu Xiuyuan was speechless for a while.

Although the apprentice's words were harsh, they were the truth.

White Feather Snow Ginseng and Vermilion Spirit Ginseng were two completely different things, even the colors were different, it was impossible to confuse them.

"Uh, brother-in-law, this..."

Bai Chengliang was a bit panicked.

If his brother-in-law could really help Baibao Pavilion find fake goods, Baibao Pavilion would have to thank him.

After all, destroying fake goods yourself is better than being used by someone with ulterior motives to make an issue.

However, his brother-in-law's statement was too unrealistic.

"Young friend Yang Yu, forgive my bluntness, your statement is truly hard to convince people. Even if you said this thing was man-made, it would be more reliable than Vermilion Spirit Ginseng."

Lu Xiuyuan fell silent for a moment, his tone becoming increasingly severe.

Li Wei snorted: "Master, why are you wasting words with him, he is clearly doing it on purpose. Master must punish him severely to serve as a warning to others, so that no one dares to trample on Baibao Pavilion's reputation!"

Yang Yu chuckled: "Woman, if I can prove it is fake, what will you do?"

Li Wei sneered: "Still stubborn? If you can prove it is fake, I will be your slave!"

"Hahaha, good!" Yang Yu said loudly, "It's a deal."

Li Wei rolled her eyes at him and said: "Then what if you can't prove it? What can you pay?"

Yang Yu said: "To be fair, I will be your... male pet?"

Li Wei's face flushed, and she said sternly: "You wish!"

Yang Yu said unpleasantly: "If I give it to you, you don't want it, then what do you want?"

Li Wei thought for a moment and said: "If you lose, you strip naked and run a lap in Ning City, how about that?"

"No problem."

Yang Yu didn't hesitate; it was a winning bet anyway.

Li Wei showed a gloating smile.

This kid is the Bai Family's son-in-law; if he really runs naked, not only will he lose his own face, but the Bai Family's face will also be lost!

"Brother-in-law, you can agree to this too?"

Bai Chengliang patted his thigh anxiously.

Yang Yu patted his shoulder and said: "Don't worry, I'm guaranteed to win. By then, the Bai Family can get a free maid."

Bai Chengliang was tearful:

How can I believe you? Can you really turn it into Vermilion Spirit Ginseng?

"Pavilion Master, I don't trust Miss Li, please be the witness for the bet between her and me."

Then, Yang Yu said to Lu Xiuyuan.

Lu Xiuyuan's old face twitched, thinking:

You young people play so openly?

One wants to be a slave.

One wants to run naked.

I, the dignified Pavilion Master of Baibao Pavilion, actually have to be a witness to this kind of thing?

Hm, let's be it.

"Since you are both willing, I can't say anything."

Lu Xiuyuan coughed dryly, which counted as agreeing.

He could accept the outcome of this bet regardless of who won or lost.

If Yang Yu lost, it would be the price he paid for talking nonsense.

If the apprentice lost, it would be a good thing to grind down her sharpness.

"So, how do you plan to prove it is fake?"

Li Wei couldn't wait and urged.

Lu Xiuyuan was also curious; this kid was still so calm and composed, could he have really discovered some details?

Yang Yu held the item in his hand and said:

"On its surface, there are hidden tiny patterns. These patterns are actually a manifestation of the mutation of Vermilion Spirit Ginseng."

Li Wei immediately questioned:

"You mean, this thing mutated from Vermilion Spirit Ginseng? Spiritual medicine mutation does exist, but it is very rare. And, how could it be such a coincidence that it mutated exactly into the appearance of White Feather Snow Ginseng? It's completely nonsense!"

Lu Xiuyuan also shook his head and said: "Judging from the patterns? I have never heard of it. Moreover, there are patterns on almost all ginseng-type spiritual medicines, and the forms are completely random; what can be deduced from them?"

For such a reaction, Yang Yu didn't feel surprised.

After all, he could see through the essence of this item because of the entry's ability.

Li Wei and Lu Xiuyuan didn't have enough knowledge, so they might not understand even if they heard it.

"Actually, there is a simplest verification method." Yang Yu didn't want to waste more words and said, "This thing is for alchemists; find an alchemist to refine this spiritual medicine, test the medicinal effect, and you will naturally know if it is true or false."

"To identify it, you want to use it up? It's not your thing!" Li Wei rolled her eyes and said.

This kind of one-time consumable, once used, it's gone.

How can you identify it like this?

This is no different from "killing someone to see if they are dead"!

"I will pay to buy this thing, whether it is true or false, it's on me." Yang Yu said flatly, "I'm determined to have this slave!"

"You!" Li Wei glared at him fiercely.

Lu Xiuyuan said: "Since it has come to this, we must determine the authenticity of this item regardless. Since Yang Yu is willing to bear the consequences, the item is considered bought by you."

"After the test, if there is no problem with the item, you will lose 150,000 for nothing, and you can't blame anyone else."

"If it is indeed a fake, Baibao Pavilion will compensate twenty times and apologize to you."

Yang Yu agreed fully: "Pavilion Master is straightforward."

Many merchants in the previous life couldn't even do a fake-one-compensate-three. This old man could compensate twenty times, which could be considered responsible.

"To identify the medicinal effect of White Feather Snow Ginseng, an alchemist is needed. To be safe, Li Wei, go invite Master Liang."

Subsequently, Lu Xiuyuan ordered Li Wei. ===== CHAPTER 29 =====

"Identifying the medicinal efficacy of the White Feather Snow Ginseng requires an alchemist. To be safe, Li Wei, go and invite Master Liang."

Afterward, Lu Xiuyuan instructed Li Wei.
