After hearing his words, Ye Fengyun and the others blushed slightly. They came here with such fanfare, weren't they just trying to ruin the party? Could it be that Mu Hanyan really didn't see that?
"Okay, okay, hurry up and take out the herbs. I'll help you identify them in no time. We're in a hurry to eat." Mu Hanyan said impatiently.
"Come here, bring all those herbs over here." Ye Fengyun gestured and said. He sneered inwardly: Humph, eating? Wait a minute, after seeing these herbs, I wonder if you will still have the heart to eat?
Soon, several young swordsmen entered the hall carrying a large wooden box, more than a meter tall. A faint scent of sandalwood filled the air. Apparently, the box was crafted from agarwood, which was over ten thousand years old. It was not only insect-proof and moth-proof, but also guaranteed to preserve the medicinal properties of the herbs for a hundred years.
Agarwood like this is more valuable than gold. A box this large would cost who knows how much, and more importantly, even if you have money, you might not be able to buy it. It seems that although Ye Fengyun was deliberately trying to make things difficult for the Nanyan Chamber of Commerce, he wasn't lying. These herbs were indeed purchased by Wenren Qingqiu. Otherwise, with Ye Fengyun's status and wealth, he probably wouldn't be able to afford such precious agarwood.
"This is the list of herbs that Master requested. Thank you, Mr. Mu." Ye Fengyun handed a list to Mu Hanyan and said with a forced smile.
It should have been handed over to Mu Nan, but Mu Hanyan took the initiative to jump out and embarrass herself, which was exactly what he wanted.
Mu Hanyan took the list and glanced at it: Dragon Armor Three Spiritual Herbs, Perilla Dark Fragrance Flower, Cold Dew Earth Emperor Ginseng...
Sure enough, they were all rare medicinal herbs that had never been heard of.
If it were someone else, they would definitely be at a loss, but Mu Hanyan was not worried at all. If Ye Fengyun had posed another difficult problem, it might have really stumped her, but this one, she could only laugh secretly.
Don't forget, she has an egg of a lucky beast on her body. She can even accurately catch meteorite gold ore, so identifying a few herbs is a piece of cake for her.
Mu Nan, Qu Shanling and others also leaned over and frowned after just one look.
Noticing their expressions, Ye Fengyun sneered secretly: This time, I want to see what tricks you can come up with?
The presidents of the major chambers of commerce were even more gloating. Even they could not identify these herbs, let alone the Nanyan Chamber of Commerce, which had a shallow foundation.
Among the few people, Mu Hanyan was probably the only one who still had a calm expression. However, this uneducated and uncultured young man knew nothing. Let alone these herbs, he probably had not even heard of many common herbs. So he had no idea how rare these herbs were, which was why he looked so calm.
"President Mu, Mr. Mu, can we start?" Ye Fengyun said to Mu Nan and Mu Hanyan.
"It's not easy to identify these herbs, and we can't afford to make any mistakes. How about you all have some tea here first, and we'll go inside to identify them." Qu Shanling said.
"How about this, you guys just slowly identify it here, and I'll go to the restaurant to have dinner with the presidents first. It should be almost done when I come back soon." After hearing Qu Shanling's words, Ye Fengyun thought they were going to discuss countermeasures, but he didn't object. Instead, he spoke in a straightforward manner.
Even the major chambers of commerce had to invite out priests who had been retired for many years to identify several herbs one by one. He didn't believe that the Nanyan Chamber of Commerce could come up with any solution. It would only make them more anxious for a while.
"That's fine." Mu Nan nodded.
Afterwards, Ye Fengyun and others left the Nanyan Chamber of Commerce.
Looking at Ye Fengyun's departing back, Mu Nan said, "I'll let you be proud for a while."
"Let him jump around for a while. His face will be swollen like a bun in a while." Che Xiang was one of Mu Hanyan's die-hard fans and trusted her unconditionally. He wanted to slap the eldest master's face, but soon his own face would be swollen!
"I never thought Ye Fengyun would give us such a big problem. Fortunately, Master Qu is here." Mu Nan took out the herbs one by one and laid them flat on the long table. He said to Qu Shanling, "Master Qu, I'm counting on your astrological divination skills. Shall we begin now?"
Seeing Qu Shanling sending Ye Fengyun and others away, Mu Nan naturally thought that he was going to use astrology to identify these herbs.
"Uh... I haven't showered, changed clothes, fasted, or burned incense yet." Qu Shanling was stunned for a moment and said with a shameless face.
Others might not know his true identity, but wouldn't he know it himself? In the past, when he told fortunes for others, he was mostly conniving. It was only after he learned the Star Illusion Thousand Machine Art that he gained some confidence. However, every time he used it, he would vomit three liters of blood, which would require eating an entire roasted pig to make up for it. And there was still no guarantee that there wouldn't be any mistakes.
This was a matter concerning the Nanyan Chamber of Commerce, and he didn't dare to take any risks.
"What should we do then?" After spending a long time together, Mu Nan knew a little about the old charlatan's background and said anxiously.
"Don't worry, Sixth Young Master. These herbs may be a little difficult for me to identify, but it's a piece of cake for others." Qu Shanling said confidently.
"You mean..." Mu Nan looked at Mu Hanyan. Since Qu Shanling lacked confidence, he could only rely on Mu Hanyan. After all, his astrological divination skills still depended on Mu Hanyan's guidance.
Qu Shanling also looked in the direction of Mu Hanyan, smiling without saying a word.
Mu Hanyan smiled. With the auspicious beast on her, why did she need the Star Fantasy Thousand Machine Judgment? She could just guess directly.
"Brother Han, I'm going to ask you to take action this time." However, what Mu Hanyan never expected was that Qu Shanling was not talking about him, but Han Jinglun who was standing beside her.
"By the way, Sixth Young Master, this Mr. Han Jinglun is my savior and a descendant of the Tianji family. He has seen and heard of more natural treasures than all of us here have eaten rice combined. When it comes to identifying rare items, there is no one more suitable than him in the world." Qu Shanling introduced Han Jinglun's identity and said with great respect.
"Brother Qu, you are too kind. I have just heard more interesting stories and gossip than others." Han Jinglun said modestly, but his expression was full of strong self-confidence. Obviously, identifying these herbs was not a difficult task for him.
Mu Hanyan slapped her forehead. She had actually forgotten about him. She had been so focused on discussing the Han family that she had forgotten to mention the Scarlet Sky Sword. Now that she thought about it, she realized he must have heard about the Sword's whereabouts long ago, which was why he had bought it without hesitation.
"I had seen that Scarlet Sky Sword once before, in my early years. The person who ultimately obtained it was a master swordsman, and my father was a close friend. He knew that his own strength wasn't enough to possess such a divine weapon, so he paid a large sum of money to have a hollow shell made to conceal it, and even added a special restriction to prevent anyone from discovering anything fishy.
"He originally intended to wait until he ascended to Sword Saint before using this sword. Now that the Crimson Sky Sword has changed hands, I think he must have met with an accident. If I hadn't seen the Crimson Sky Sword in my youth and knew its secrets, perhaps this sword would have been covered in dust for a thousand years, or perhaps never see the light of day again." Han Jinglun said with emotion, sensing Mu Hanyan's thoughts.
That senior even dared to tell him the secret of the Scarlet Sky Sword, so of course he had a very close relationship with the Han family. It was unknown whether his death was related to the Han family.
