But even so, it is definitely more than selling it to a store.
However, selling to a store also has its advantages, that is, you can get the money immediately without having to wait or face the risk of the item failing to sell.
After leaving Zhenxiang Pavilion, Hua Jiaqing said to Ning Zhishui, "Please wait for me for seven days. Once I sell all the crystals, I will give them to you."
Ning Zhishui said yes.
"Oh, by the way, the elixir..." Hua Zhaoxing thought of the important matter.
He wanted to return the elixir to Ning Zhishui. Although he didn't have it now, Jiaqing had it!
Being a water fisherman is extremely dangerous, with a high mortality rate and a high possibility of injury.
Even though they earn good money from each trip, it is completely a risk for their lives. Many fishermen spend the money they earn on healing and medicine, and they can actually save not much.
Unless you are lucky every time and don't get hurt, you can save more.
But no matter what, Jiaqing must have some elixirs on her, which can be returned to Ning Zhishui.
But Ning Zhishui interrupted Hua Zhaoxing halfway through his words, "Don't I have to return the elixir to you when I get home? I'm tired too, so I'd like to stop by your house to rest. You guys don't mind, do you?"
Hua Zhaoxing held back the rest of his words, "...I don't mind."
But Hua Jiaqing frowned, seemed embarrassed and didn't say anything.
Ning Zhishui deliberately ignored her embarrassment and just chatted with Hua Zhaoxing all the way.
Finally, we arrived at the Hua residence.
The Hua family was definitely considered upper-middle class in Fisherman's Song City. Just looking at this house, you could tell it was only slightly smaller than the Ning family's ancestral home. Yet, in terms of style, it was even more impressive than the Ning family's.
"Third Young Master is here. Did you have a smooth journey? The master was very worried about you and sent you many messages..."
As soon as he entered the Hua family, Ning Zhishui saw the completely different status of Hua Zhaoxing and Hua Jiaqing in the Hua family.
All the managers and servants surrounded Hua Zhaoxing, while Hua Jiaqing fell behind like a maid, and no one paid any attention to her.
Only one maid raised her eyes and looked at her, but her eyes were also indifferent.
Hua Zhaoxing was talking to the steward when he thought of something and turned back, "Fellow Daoist Ning, come with me to meet my father first."
Ning Zhishui hummed, "Okay, but Jiaqing, you come too."
After Hua Zhaoxing spoke, Hua Jiaqing had already planned to go to the side yard alone.
She is just a daughter of the Hua family's side branch. Although she calls Hua Zhaoxing the third brother in terms of seniority, her status is actually very different. It is really a case of having the same surname but different fates.
Her parents had no status, and she herself had no outstanding spiritual roots. If her mother had not clung tightly to the eldest lady, perhaps the whole family would have had to move out of the mansion.
Because of this, their family was looked down upon, and even the servants looked down on them. They probably thought they were poor relatives who were begging for money.
She is also used to minimizing her presence at home. It doesn't matter if she is not looked down upon by others, as long as she is not bullied or causes trouble.
Now hearing Ning Zhishui's words, she subconsciously shook her head, "I won't go."
Then, without waiting for Ning Zhishui to speak, he walked away with his head down.
"Jiaqing doesn't like socializing and is a bit of a loner." Hua Zhaoxing saw Ning Zhishui looking at Jiaqing's back and thought she was angry, so he explained for Jiaqing.
"It doesn't matter."
Ning Zhishui said, "Aren't you going to see your father? Let's go."
Hua Zhaoxing: ...
Why did he feel that Ning Zhishui had taken over?
"oh."
He agreed and trotted to catch up with Ning Zhishui.
After a while, Ning Zhishui met the head of the Hua family, Hua Lin, Hua Zhaoxing's father, and Hua Jiaqing's uncle.
It can be seen that Hua Zhaoxing is very favored, and his father loves him very much. As soon as they met, he ignored Ning Zhishui and pulled him aside to ask why he didn't send back the notes, and whether something had happened.
Hua Zhaoxing took a lot of time to explain, and Hua Lin finally understood, and couldn't help feeling a little scared.
"I told you to send someone to follow you, but you refused and insisted on going by yourself. You're such a disobedient child! If you hadn't met that girl who saved you, your mother and I wouldn't have known you were feeding the monster outside!"
After saying this, Hua Lin realized that he had neglected his son's benefactor, Ning Zhishui, and quickly looked at her.
When he looked up, he found that Ning Zhishui had already sat down beside him, drinking the tea brought by the servant to moisten his throat.
Seeing them stop, he looked up and grinned at them, "It's okay, uncle, you guys chat first, I'm a little tired, it's a good time to take a break."
——
The anxious girl became angry and said, "I didn't expect you to be this kind of person! Hua Jiaqing, I don't want to be friends with you anymore!"
After saying that, he turned around and went back to the shop.
The only male fisherman also looked at Hua Jiaqing disapprovingly, and then followed him back to the shop.
The other female fisherman's eyes flickered as she stepped forward. "It's okay, Jiaqing. It's your freedom to speak up or not. Even if you don't, we're still friends. They're being unreasonable. I'll help you persuade them."
Hua Jiaqing looked at her in surprise when she heard that, then her expression softened and she nodded at her.
"Then I'll go back to the store. The basket is still here. Be careful on the road." She said with a smile and left.
Hua Zhaoxing came back to his senses at this time, "Jiaqing, you can't tell them, this position is only known to you, what if you can find a second one!"
"Yeah, I know."
"But what are you going to do with this thing? Why not give it to your father, or sell it in our shop?" Hua Zhaoxing said, "Although our shop only sells weapons, we won't have trouble selling one more treasure."
"No." Hua Jiaqing shook her head, "I want to go to Zhenxiang Pavilion."
"You want to auction it off?" Hua Zhaoxing's eyes lit up when he heard it. "That's a good idea... But why don't you go home and tell your father first? After all, this thing is worth more than 10,000 crystals."
Hua Jiaqing continued to shake her head, and after that she ignored Hua Zhaoxing and looked at Ning Zhishui. "Thanks to you for helping me today, otherwise I would have sold it at a low price. After the auction, I'll give you half of the crystals I got."
Hua Zhaoxing widened his eyes.
Divide in half!
That’s thousands of crystals. She wants to give away so many right away?
But on second thought, there is something wrong with this. If it weren't for Ning Zhishui, Jiaqing could only sell a few dozen crystals.
So he didn't say anything.
Ning Zhishui looked at her, raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Are you really willing to share with me?"
"It should be so." Jiaqing said.
"Okay, then I won't be polite."
After Ning Zhishui said this, Jiaqing actually relaxed.
She did not choose to return to the Hua family immediately, but went directly to Zhenxiang Pavilion and sent a photo of the item.
The auction will be held in seven days.
The master in Zhenxiang Pavilion had a very good eye. He was a little casual and disdainful before taking it. I guess he thought it was an ordinary water snail.
But when he saw it clearly, he couldn't help but sit up straight with his eyes wide open.
