The previous owner of the Twin Phoenix Mirror was a count named Bawentong from the Wuyi Kingdom. Although he was a count, he had no real power and was just a figurehead!
It was Ba Wentong who obtained the title through treasures and his silver tongue.
Ba Wentong was originally a mountain dweller, but he was adept at changing his tune with the wind and getting along with everyone, so he was able to get along well with all sorts of people.
In addition, he was often able to acquire some good items, which led him to make connections with some powerful and influential people, and that's how he started his business.
In order to get to know more powerful nobles, he went to the trouble of obtaining the status of an earl.
"How do you think he obtained this earldom?"
Zheng Ziwen looked at Tang Jian and the others with a mysterious and furtive expression.
Lin Zao could only cooperate with him:
"What method?"
Zheng Ziwen looked around, as if afraid of being overheard.
"He received this title by presenting a secret treasure to the Wuyi royal family! The key is that this treasure is no ordinary item! It is said to be a relic of that Celestial Master!"
He almost spoke the last sentence in a breathy voice.
There was no way around it; anything related to this Celestial Master would inevitably cause a storm, and he didn't want to get himself into trouble.
Lin Zao and Tang Jian were quite surprised. The Celestial Master's relics! If this got out, the eyes of the whole world would probably be focused on Wuyi.
How did you find out about this?
Logically, such news shouldn't have come from the Wuyi region.
"Hehe! I know Naba Wentong. He accidentally revealed it when he was drunk once!"
Zheng Ziwen looked smug:
"However, I suspect that the origin of that treasure might be fake! Ba Wentong is a cunning man, and his tricks are hard to guard against!"
It's been almost a thousand years, and no one has ever seen the Celestial Master's relics. If Ba Wentong just picks up an old object and claims it's the Celestial Master's, no one will necessarily be able to tell if it's real or fake!
"Based on my experience of trading with him a few times, although the items he has are all pretty good, he makes up the origin of half of them. They are all vague legends, each with an extraordinary origin! And the value of each item increases accordingly."
Therefore, he bleeds a lot of money off him! But thankfully, he earns even more from his customers!
"Regarding the legend of the Twin Phoenix Mirror, half of what Ba Wentong has is from the same source, and that mysterious tribe is most likely something he made up! Anyway, no one knows whether it's true or not!"
Tang Jian and Lin Zao looked at each other in disbelief. This Ba Wentong was a prodigy!
However, this makes it difficult to determine what is wrong with the Double Phoenix Mirror, or what aspects of it are worth Wang Xuzhi's attention!
Or was Wang Xuzhi also deceived by this legend?
His real purpose was to find that mysterious tribe?
But what does this have to do with Lin Zao?
The more Lin Zao thought about it, the more mysteries arose in his mind.
"Don't worry, I've already sent people to monitor Wang Xuzhi. We'll know if he does anything wrong!"
Lin Zao was relieved to learn that Tang Jian had made arrangements in advance.
Well, now all we can do is wait and see!
But Ba Wentong always felt that something was wrong. Was he really going to such lengths just to do business?
I have a feeling he's plotting something!
A fleeting doubt crossed Lin Zao's mind.
Once this matter was settled, Lin Zao had almost finished organizing the supplies in her space. Looking at the thick list, Lin Zao felt a sense of satisfaction.
With these supplies, even in a famine year, she can ensure her family's livelihood.
