The fortune telling was so accurate that I accidentally accumulated a huge amount of merit!

Chapter 169 Who Has Such Excellent Eyesight! (2 Updates)
"How are we supposed to get revenge? Don't tell me I'm just a burden to the Yun family. Even if I were a proper young lady of the Yun family, I couldn't compete with that person. Didn't you see that Yun Qing was just a little follower in front of him?"

The ginseng fruit opened its armory with a 'whoosh': [Host, just sell any one of these items, and we'll be rich!]

Yunran: ...

"I appreciate your generosity, but I'm not a law-abiding citizen. Besides, these weapons could raze an entire country to the ground; I wouldn't sell them no matter what!"

Ginseng Fruit closed the armory again with some regret.

Back then, its predecessors had told it that the things in their armory were very valuable and could be sold for spirit crystals.

Who would have thought that this place would become a hot potato? Sigh~
Yunran took out a pack of tissues from her bag and silently handed it to the blind Taoist priest who was crying his eyes out.

A grown man was crying, and a soft-spoken little girl was quietly handing him tissues.

The scene, the contrast, wow!
"You know, this is my third eye. It gets uncomfortable after using it for a long time, so I start to tear up habitually."

Yun Ran nodded. She did have some emotional intelligence; she knew better than to expose someone's flaws, and she just accepted whatever others said.
"I'm starting to resent the rich a bit now."

Yunran replied, "What a coincidence, me too."

Silence, a deathly silence...

Even amidst the surrounding noise, nothing could disrupt the eerie atmosphere between Yunran and the blind Taoist priest.

The blind Taoist priest felt goosebumps rise all over his body, and all the gloomy mood he had just felt disappeared.

After thinking for a moment, he still said to Yunran, "I don't think you're very good at comforting people."

"Really? I'll pay attention next time."

Blind Taoist Priest: ...

I've completely lost face for the rest of my life!!!
"I'm not taking pictures of the Nine Yang Grass anymore. Let's look at other things later, since we're already here."

The phrase "Since we're already here" is really quite clever; at least in Yunran's opinion, it carries a hint of giving up.

"Oh, by the way, those ghostly sun-eye ornaments you just photographed, could you give me one of them? I'd like to take advantage of your good mood."

Upon hearing this, Yun Ran immediately objected. How could she give it away? It was a decorative piece worth 50 yuan!
"No, a gentleman doesn't take what others love. Besides, that's not being blinded by ghosts, it's having a unique style. You wouldn't understand!"

Just as they arrived, a man sitting not far behind Yun Ran overheard their conversation, and his eyes immediately lit up.

Who would have thought that his work, which had failed to sell at auction many times, would be bought by the same person this time?

The man was overjoyed. He had used special privileges to sit in a seat not far behind Yun Ran, and he wanted to see who had such good taste!
Hearing Yunran's words now, I suddenly felt like I had found a kindred spirit. Everyone else disliked his work, but only this little girl said his work was unique. Wow, I'm so happy!!!
The man waved, and soon bodyguards came over.

"Go ask that lady and her companion what they filmed today, I'll pay for everything!"

The bodyguard left quickly, leaving the man to continue eavesdropping on his "confidant's" conversation.

Ultimately, the Nine Yang Grass was won over by the wealthy and powerful Hosono Naoko, and all those who had come with high spirits to acquire it were now deflated.

As a result, they lost all interest in the subsequent items.

Yun Ran, on the other hand, kept a close eye on things the whole time and took pictures of several excellent rare and precious herbs. She made a profit on this trip.

When she was about to pay after the event, a staff member told her that someone had already paid for her purchases that day.

The same shock appeared on Yunran's and the blind Taoist priest's faces.

That's worth tens of millions! Just given it to her for free? Good heavens! She said she's lucky, like she ran into a money-giving fairy as soon as she stepped out the door!

As for being worried? Not at all. If someone dares to give her something, she'll take it. She's determined not to let herself suffer a loss.

"May I ask who paid the bill?"

The staff member smiled and shook his head: "I'm sorry, ma'am, we have regulations that prevent us from disclosing guests' information."

Yunran: ...

I'd be a fool to believe you. If I couldn't reveal the customer's information, how would they know who she was, how much she ordered, and how they would pay for her?

However, since the other party insisted on doing good deeds anonymously, she wouldn't force them. In the end, she would be the one who benefited, and if that person needed anything, they would definitely come looking for her.

"Okay, I got it. Pack everything up for me."

The staff remained gentle and polite, giving Yunran all the items she had photographed, with the blind Taoist priest following behind and helping to carry half of them.

Hosono Naoko and Yun Qing successfully obtained the Nine Yang Grass, and the group soon left the auction venue.

Today's auction has made him famous in the industry.

"We've really learned something new this time. Who would have thought that a single blade of grass could be auctioned for 100 billion? That's enough to buy a decent piece of land."

"The Hosono family is really lenient with their money. I hope they can be just as lenient when we do business with them in the future."

“I’ve heard that they seem to have acquired oil exploration rights in other continents. Do you think the Hosono family has some ulterior motive for suddenly making such a fuss?”

"Whether they have ulterior motives or not is unknown, but from today onwards, everyone knows that their young lady is not to be underestimated. Even the heir of an ordinary family would find it difficult to mobilize so much money."

……

Hosono Naoko, who was the subject of gossip, was carrying a jade box containing the Nine Yang Grass as she headed towards the territory of the Helian family.

Yun Qing sat beside him without saying a word, but her eyes were filled with excitement.

She had flattered and fawned over Hosono Naoko for a long time before finally becoming a member of their group. Now that she could go with the Helian family, it was worth all the time she had been subservient.

The convoy quickly arrived outside the Helian family's manor, where it obediently stopped and waited for inspection.

Even though there seemed to be no one around, no one dared to drive over there recklessly.

A dozen minutes later, an unassuming old man came out of the manor and accepted the visiting card handed to him by the driver of the car in front.

He said coldly, "Just wait!"

The Helian family does not operate any businesses; they only act as angel investors.

At least one-third of the companies in the world have the influence of the Helian family behind them.

It can be said that as long as a person can get investment from the Helian family, that person's company is already halfway to success.

Unfortunately, not many people can find members of the Helian family.

The manor in Japan today is simply a place the old lady uses for vacations because she likes the climate here.

It's quite an achievement that Hosono Naoko managed to find this place.
