C566 Mysterious Compendium Pavilion
The Classic of Changes was actually divided into three parts. Right now, the 'Zhou Yi' that was spread in the secular world was actually one of the two parts that had been lost, and the 'Gui Cang' was one of them.
Ye Qing knew Feng Shui, so he knew the value of this ancient book. It was simply indescribable. He didn't expect that it would actually be in this library. However, this book was in an extremely remote corner, and judging from its traces... As if it hadn't been flipped over, Ye Qing suddenly understood. Perhaps the owner of the Compendium Pavilion was also interested in preventing this ancient book from being discovered, or else it would have been bought long ago.
But now, it was cheaper for him. No, it was cheaper for that Patriarch Ning. Ye Qing couldn't help but smile. This was fate. Just as he was about to take the ancient book and leave... A voice suddenly came from beside him, "Bro, I want your book. Name your price."
Ye Qing turned his head and saw that it was the young master who had just brought a group of people in!
"Brother, this book is expensive. You probably can't afford it either. Why don't you sell it to me and I'll give you a sum of money?" The young master smiled.
The surrounding people looked over and their pupils shrank.
"Young master Meng found his target?"
"Sigh, if it was anyone else, the Owner of the Collection Court would definitely step forward to stop him, but this person is Young Master Meng. I'm afraid that even the Owner of the Collection Court would have to be wary of him."
"The Owner of the Collection Court is a figure who started from scratch. He came from both sides and created a huge foundation. However, compared to the Meng Clan, there is still a gap."
Meng Clan?
Ye Qing heard the discussions of the crowd, and suddenly understood. This young master in front of him should be the young master of one of the five big families in Ning family, the Meng family. No wonder he attracted so much attention. It turned out that he had such an identity. However, Ye Qing wouldn't be scared. In his eyes, the so-called Five Great Hidden family was no different from the Ye family and other families. If they were friends... If they were enemies, then they would fight on a narrow path, and the brave would win.
"I'm sorry, I have my eyes on this ancient book, so I won't sell it." Ye Qing said in a low voice.
Young Master Meng was stunned. "Brother, you're not selling it?"
Ye Qing nodded. "Is there a problem?"
Young Master Meng smiled. "Brother, I don't want to use my identity to pressure you. This is meaningless to me. Why don't I get the Owner of the Collection Court over and tell you how much this ancient book costs?"
"Sure."
Ye Qing did not refuse. Instead, he found a place to sit down and started reading the Gui Cang.
Young Master Meng also saw the name of the ancient book, and his pupils constricted. As the young master of the Meng family, he naturally knew the value of this ancient book. He was pleasantly surprised. He had come here today to try his luck, but he did not expect to get such a good thing. It was indeed a worthwhile trip!
As for whether he could get the Gui Cang, it was not within Young Master Meng's consideration. As long as it was something he liked, he must get it!
Very soon, the Owner of the Collection Court arrived. It was a middle-aged man. When he saw Young Master Meng, he was also shocked, but he did not panic too much. Instead, he smiled and said, "Why did Young Master Meng call me over?"
Meng Yang pointed at the ancient book in Ye Qing's hand. "I want this book. Mr. Wang, give me a price."
The Owner of the Collection Court was stunned. When it saw the three words' Gui Cang ', it could not help but be shocked. "You found this book?"
"It was just a coincidence." Ye Qing said indifferently, "Your place should have a saying of first come first serve, right?"
When the Owner of the Collection Court heard this and looked at Meng Yang, it understood what was going on. He could not help but hesitate. Logically speaking, first come first serve. If one could not afford the price, then others would bid. But this was Meng Yang, the eldest young master of the Meng Clan. If he offended him, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to move an inch in the capital in the future.
However, if he gave Meng Yang face and broke the rules, his reputation for twenty years would be destroyed. Sigh, the Owner of the Collection Court was really in a dilemma. At this moment, he only hoped that Ye Qing was also a big shot. Only by doing so could he escape, but no matter how big of a figure he was... Could he be as powerful as the young master of the Meng Family?
Unless this person was the most famous Ye Qing.
But how could this be possible?
The Owner of the Collection Court sighed and decided to take it one step at a time. "Young Master Meng, this ancient book is rather special. If you really want to buy it, one billion."
Swoosh! As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of the surrounding customers changed. They looked at the ancient book in Ye Qing's hands in disbelief. They were simply stunned! This book was actually worth one billion? Oh my god, just how valuable is this! One must know that everyone is a frequent customer, even though there are a lot of ancient books here, but most of them are in the millions, ten million, or even hundreds of millions. But this person actually found a billion ancient books on his first visit?
This was simply ridiculous!
"One billion?!" Meng Yang was incomparably delighted. He wanted this ancient book to be of great use, and the higher the price, the more it could prove its value. The more Meng Yang liked it, the more he liked it. After all, one billion was just a small amount to the Meng Clan.0
Ye Qing was also very surprised. He wasn't shocked by its price, but rather felt that the Owner of the Collection Court had raised the price a bit. Although this book was very meaningful, it was at most five to six hundred million. It was simply too much to say that it was one billion. However, Ye Qing also understood the meaning of the Owner of the Collection Court. It was nothing more than raising the price. It wanted to scare him away.
But to Ye Qing, not to mention one billion, even if it was two billion or three billion, so what if it was something worth it?
"Brother, one billion is already a sky-high price for this ancient book. Shouldn't you be able to afford it? How about this, I'll give you one million yuan. How about you transfer this book to me?" Meng Yang said with a smile.
Ye Qing's expression did not change. "One billion, I'll buy it."
Meng Yang was stunned. "What did you say?"
Ye Qing repeated, "One billion, I'll buy it."
Boom! Everyone was stunned! The originally quiet Compendium Pavilion instantly became noisy!
"Who is this person!? To actually be able to take out a billion without even blinking an eye!"
"This is not a matter of money. This person in front of us is Young Master Meng. Not only did he spend one billion to buy it, he even went against Young Master Meng!"
"Gasp! Going against Young Master Meng is going against the Meng Clan! If it were any ordinary person, would they have the guts to do so?!"
"Why do I feel like there's going to be a big battle?"
Everyone was shocked. They all knew what the Meng Clan represented, but this guy in front of them knew that this person was the Great Hu Young Master of the Meng Clan, so he was not afraid. His identity was definitely not simple! This time, it really became exciting!
Even the Owner of the Collection Court didn't expect Ye Qing to be so strong-willed. No, perhaps he was calm. When facing Meng Yang, he was able to expressionlessly say that he wanted to buy an ancient book. This kind of mental quality was beyond imagination!
"This man is definitely not simple. Just now, I wanted to use a high price to scare him away. It was definitely my fault, but..." Owner of the Collection Court felt helpless in his heart, "Even if you don't lack money, can your status be compared to Young Master Meng's? Sigh! Young man, not only are you causing trouble for yourself, you are also causing trouble for my Compendium Pavilion! "
"Alright, alright, alright. Brother, you are very brave." Meng Yang did not get angry. Instead, he laughed. "However, there is a saying that goes, geniuses and earthly treasures can be obtained by those who are capable. Are you sure you want to compete with me?"
