"I never imagined that Dongdan Shuiyue had so many hidden treasures. It seems she and Dongdan Wenhao aren't on the same side." Even though An Zijin was a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator, the series of gains she had made in recent days still made her excited: "This is a direct windfall for us, Miss, we're going to make a fortune this time!"
"Oh, this is nothing, calm down, calm down," Ji Fengyao waved her small hand and took away all the boxes in the first storeroom.
She scanned the warehouse with her divine sense and found that it contained top-grade iron ore and other rare stones.
These things cannot be used directly for cultivation, so An Zijin didn't need them and she didn't give them to her.
Ji Fengyao refused to give it to him, and An Zijin didn't ask either.
When she first started following the young lady, she might have had some doubts, but after these two days by her side, she has come to understand the young lady's character and manners quite well.
The young lady wasn't the stingy type; on the contrary, she was very generous and would give whatever she could.
They won't give it to you. Asking won't help; it will only damage your image in the lady's eyes.
As Ji Fengyao led An Zijin to the second storeroom, she chatted idly, saying, "If Dongdan Shuiyue had even a shred of brotherly affection for Dongdan Wenhao, Dongdan Wenhao wouldn't have died so quietly, only to be dealt with by Zhou Mingxuan."
But Dongdan Wenhao is dead, and Dongdan Shuiyue is so eager to drag him down with her to seal the deal, and so eager to take control of the Dongdan family in Jin Guyue City...
Calling her cold-blooded, ruthless, and driven by self-interest is one thing, but I always felt there was more to the story than that.
“Yes, even if she relies on her father being a key figure in the Yan Jingdong Dan family, Dong Dan Wenhao’s father is still the head of the Yan Jingdong Dan family. No matter how powerful Dong Dan Shuiyue’s father is, can the person who can sit in the position of family head be a good-for-nothing?” An Zijin also started to think.
Suddenly, her eyes lit up, and she and Ji Fengyao said in unison, "Unless, Dongdan Shuiyue has another trump card!"
Ji Fengyao's phoenix eyes were also bright and clear as she used her divine sense to carefully scan the remaining three storerooms once more.
Then she went directly to the third warehouse.
He kicked open the door, waved his hand to collect and pick out seven or eight boxes, put them in the yard, and opened them to find, wow, they were full of spirit stones!
Five boxes of low-grade spirit stones and three boxes of mid-grade spirit stones!
In terms of proportion, she has more mid-grade spirit stones than Dong Dan Wenhao!
"Holy crap, the Dongdan family actually donated so many spirit stones to Guyue City? They're really rich!" An Zijin was so jealous that she thought to herself, "Why wasn't I born into a big family?"
Otherwise, with her qualifications, she's guaranteed to do even better than Dongdan Shuiyue!
“This probably wasn’t taken from the Yan Jingdong Dan family,” Ji Fengyao noticed with her keen eye that there was some shallow foam at the bottom of the three boxes of mid-grade spirit stones, which was clearly dust.
"No, then where did these spirit stones come from?" An Zijin's mind was a bit confused.
Ji Fengyao walked up to the three boxes of mid-grade spirit stones, picked up a spirit stone and gently sniffed it. Her smile instantly brightened like the rising sun: "This spirit stone still has a faint earthy smell, it's clearly been unearthed not long ago."
She gripped the spirit tightly in her hand, looked up and smiled brightly, "Now I know where Dongdan Shuiyue's confidence comes from. She and Dongdan Wenhao are truly audacious!"
"Miss, the more I listen to you, the less I understand what you're saying," An Zijin said, completely bewildered by Ji Fengyao's sudden, unusually bright smile.
