My Waste Husband novel Chapter 1242

In the afternoon.

The Chu Family members appeared on the streets of Eastern City in large numbers, as if they were announcing their return.

Placido personally brought Ranjeet to the street and explained the happenings of Eastern City to him. He now looked as if he was trying his best to cultivate Ranjeet.

Eurydice, Jacindo, and Cleytus walked on the street and walked around the stalls.

"Junior Sister, do you like this?" Cleytus picked up a hairpin and put it on Eurydice's head.

Eurydice smiled, took off her hairpin, and put it back on the stall. "Senior brother, don't waste money. We've just entered the city and have a lot of things to do. We're very nervous on this aspect." "How much money can this be?" Cleytus waved his hand and didn't care.

At this moment, a man from the Chu Family came running over with an anxious face.

"Senior Cleytus, something bad has happened!" This was someone from the Chu Family who was in charge of logistics.

"What's the rush?" Cleytus frowned and looked around. Then he scolded, "You're so impatient. What will people think when they see you like this?! What's going on? Tell me!"

The person who came wiped the sweat from his forehead. "Senior Cleytus, things aren't looking good. Just now, we went to buy grain, and the price of grain in the entire Eastern City has risen four times!"

"What?!" Cleytus was shocked. "The price of grain has risen four times? Wouldn't the citizens of Eastern City rebel?"

"Why would they? Last night, when Knox held a banquet, the Colver Family sent troops to give grain cards to people. People who have grain cards can buy the food at a cheap price. Every family has a grain card, but we don't. They are forcing us away!"

"How dare they?!" Cleytus waved his hand and said, "Let's go and see!"

They ignored the stalls and marched towards the granary.

When they were passing by a street, Cleytus saw hundreds of adventurers blocking it. They crowded there and it took them a long time to think of a way out.

"What's going on?" Cleytus asked.

The Chu Family member who had just come to report replied, "Someone just opened this Treasure Pavilion. There is a master inside who can identify treasures. These people are all lining up to see the master."

A look of greed appeared in Cleytus's eyes as he looked inside the Treasure Pavilion. Unfortunately, there were too many people surrounding him, and he couldn't see anything at all.

"Those who know how to appraise treasures are all extraordinary people!" Jacindo said, "If our Chu Family has such a talent, we would be treated as VIPs wherever we go. Life wouldn't be so difficult at all."

"That's right." The messenger from the Chu Family sighed, "I heard that this Treasure Pavilion has already earned six hundred gold coins in just one morning. Moreover, this is their first day of business, so there are a lot of people who are willing to pay for it. If they really want to collect the money, it shouldn't be a problem for them to earn a thousand gold coins in the morning. Compared with us who have to go out and take a risk to hunt, we are only able to get a few dozen gold coins if we put our lives on the line. Ther way of living is good."

"Isn't the Treasure Pavilion in the city like this?" Cleytus looked to the east. The original Treasure Pavilion was in the east part of the city. "It is said that if you want to find a master of Treasure Pavilion to have a look at your things, you would have to pay thousands of gold coins. You have to wait in line for the master to see it or not, which depends on the master's mood. The people in this Treasure Pavilion may not have the skill of the master of Treasure Pavilion, but the speed of making money is beyond our imagination."
