"Including the ones I gave to you last time, Brother Qiu, that makes thirty-three."
"And also—"
"Brother Qiu, you were going to leave Da Xia Country, right? I have a bestiary here, which contains some worthless treasures from all nineteen provinces of the entire Da Xia Country. I've collected them and recorded them in this bestiary. When you go out, if you see anything valuable outside, you can come back to fetch it."
"You're thoughtful."
Chen Qiu took the Jade Scroll containing the bestiary, looked up at Liu Zide with a smile, and said, "Figured it out?"
"Well..."
Liu Zide nodded somewhat sheepishly; he wasn't a fool. Brother Qiu's wide-scale purchasing of Evil Wood must be because its value wasn't as it seemed. Although he had previously had his suspicions, he didn't know what specifically made it valuable.
Lately, he had also heard rumors about Brother Qiu preparing to leave Da Xia and head to Xuantian Continent, which made his guess nearly spot-on.
