The black market boss’s originally smiling expression suddenly froze.

 After many interactions, the black market boss felt that he already knew Jiang Yue relatively well.

Looking at it now, I still underestimated this young man’s determination.

With a straight face: "Mr. Jiang's standards are too high, right? If I put these good things at auction, how many people would rob them, do you believe it?"

"I believe it." Jiang Yue did not argue, smiled lightly, and did not refute at all.

The black market boss's originally prepared momentum was immediately blocked by Jiang Yue's two words, neither salty nor bland.

After staring at Jiang Yue for a long time, the black market boss sighed: "But why do I feel that in Mr. Jiang's eyes, these things of ours are just like a shabby business?"

 “Too serious.”

Jiang Yue smiled and said: "These are all good things, including many items that appear on the black market. It's just that there are three thousand pieces of weak water, so I only take one scoop."

The black market boss grabbed the cup's hand and had the urge to smash the cup into Jiang Yue's face.

He showed two batches of lists one after another, one with ordinary quality and one with better quality. In fact, he wanted to use this progressive method to break down Jiang Yue's psychological defense and make Jiang Yue refuse more times.

, feeling guilty and apologetic, and then conquering Jiang Yue's psychology step by step, so that he can extract the magic talisman from Jiang Yue's hand bit by bit.

　　Including the way he pretended to be angry just now, all the pretense was actually for this purpose.

It’s a pity that this is like showing a wink to a blind man.

No matter how he calculated, Jiang Yue didn't even accept the move.

 I don’t blame you for being short of things, nor do you say that I don’t have a magic talisman.

 In one way of saying it, things are good, but I don’t need them.

 Black market transactions are, after all, buying and selling.

 There must be rules for buying and selling.

You can engage in all kinds of intrigues, psychological tactics, and intrigues, but the basic rule of voluntary buying and selling cannot be changed in the end.

The black market boss stared at Jiang Yue with a sullen face.

 The two of them stared at each other with big eyes and small eyes.

"Hahaha..." The black market boss's tense face suddenly relaxed, and he slapped the table and laughed.

"Mr. Jiang is not very old, but he is indeed an expert. I am convinced, I am really convinced."

This is what a businessman does, he can be both red and white when he sings.

 Various ways of doing things are actually to achieve one's own goals.

 It’s just that Jiang Yue is immune to all these tricks.

"Mr. Jiang, it seems that those things before were really beyond your discernment. It doesn't matter, I do still have a few collector's edition items here. I would like to ask Mr. Jiang to take a look at them."

This time, the black market boss’s tone seemed unusually humble.

 I saw him slowly taking out a box from the safe under his desk.

This box is actually made of fine jade material. Just looking at this jade box makes me feel that it contains something special.

 “Mr. Jiang, have you taken a look?”

The other party slowly pushed the jade box towards Jiang Yue, gently pressed the button of the jade box, and flipped the lid open, revealing the contents inside.

 In the box lay a worn piece of paper.

  To be precise, this is a residual talisman.

The talisman paper looked torn and worn, like the tattered clothes of a beggar, and looked extremely miserable.

 This remnant talisman was lying in the jade box, which made Jiang Yue feel strange at first.

It's like an open coffin, with a zombie sleeping inside that has not decayed. The jade box is exactly this expensive coffin.

“Mr. Jiang, you are a wizard in the field of talismans. What do you think of the quality of this talisman?”

Jiang Yue did not take out the remaining talisman, but let it lie in the jade box and observed it carefully for a while.

 “Can I get started?”

"Haha, I definitely don't trust others to take advantage of it. I can't ask for it if Mr. Jiang takes it. You can look at it, even if it is damaged or damaged, it is still its destiny."

 The words of the black market boss are quite beautiful.

Jiang Yue calmly took out a pair of white gloves and carefully took out the remaining talisman from the jade box.

 Putting it in the palm of his hand, Jiang Yue observed it from multiple angles.

 After observing for a while, Jiang Yue was basically certain that this was indeed a spiritual talisman, or at least it once was a spiritual talisman.

　To this day, perhaps it is too long ago and the spiritual power has passed away so much that people can hardly feel its spiritual power fluctuations.

 This is why Jiang Yue felt that this broken talisman looked like a zombie lying in a coffin.

 The level of this talisman should be at least level three, or even higher.

Judging from the material alone, this is not ordinary yellow paper, but some kind of special talisman paper made of special materials.

Jiang Yue has never seen this kind of special talisman paper so far.

In the inheritance of the Lao Jiang family, there is mention of the production of this kind of talisman paper, but many of the materials are relatively rare. Even before the advent of the strange era, it was impossible for normal humans to have heard of these materials.

Looking at the material alone is only one aspect.

On the other hand, although the spiritual power of this magical talisman has faded, the techniques on the talisman can still be followed.

In Jiang Yue's view, the construction techniques of this spiritual talisman and the various techniques used in the production process are definitely not comparable to low-level spiritual talismans.

 The amount of mental energy required to make this talisman is absolutely terrifying, and it must be a huge project.

 At least at this stage, Jiang Yue definitely does not have this mental power, nor does he currently have this production ability.

Especially the carving of the many lines of this talisman, from the perspective of an expert like Jiang Yue, the technical content has simply reached an exaggerated level.

Jiang Yue could not determine the age of this talisman, but one thing he was sure of was that the maker of this talisman was definitely a great talisman maker.

The broken talisman was put back into the jade box by Jiang Yue and slowly pushed back to the black market boss.

"This is indeed an ancient Taoist talisman, but it's a pity that it is a broken talisman and its spiritual power has been lost. It is a good thing, but it is no longer practical."

 The black market boss was not surprised when he heard Jiang Yue's judgment. There was a hint of disappointment in his eyes.

  Can't help but ask: "If spiritual power is lost, is it possible to repair it?"

 Repair?

Jiang Yue pondered: "It's not completely impossible. The body of this ancient talisman has no destructive damage, and its subjectivity is still there. However, this ancient talisman has an extremely high technical level, exquisite line structure, and superb skills. Now these

I’m afraid the technique has been lost, so how easy is it to restore it?”

“Mr. Jiang is not sure, either?”

“There is really nothing we can do at the moment.” Jiang Yue replied.

“In other words, there are still opportunities in the future?” Black market bosses are very good at taking advantage of language loopholes.

“The future? Maybe.” Jiang Yue did not deny it.

“In Mr. Jiang’s opinion, how much is this ancient talisman of mine worth?” asked the black market boss.

“It’s hard to say.” Jiang Yue smiled and declined to comment.

 “Mr. Jiang, it’s okay to say it.”

"It's not that I won't tell you, the value of this thing is indeed a bit abstract. If you put it at auction, most people will think that it is a broken talisman, a useless talisman, with no use value at all, and there may not be a single bidder.

"

"If you are knowledgeable, you may spend some money to get it. But it is hard to say whether it is worth buying it. If it cannot be restored, you can only offer it as an ancestor, which has no actual value."

“Of course, if it falls into the hands of someone who can restore it, the value of this thing is still very good. If the price of acquisition is not high, it can be regarded as a waste.”

 When analyzing the market situation of an object, we must ultimately return to its practical value.

 After all, the weird era is different from the peaceful era, and the so-called collection in the prosperous age simply won't work.

If anyone spends a lot of money to collect a broken talisman that has no practical value, it is definitely not a wise choice.

 “So which category does Mr. Jiang belong to?”

 The black market boss stared at Jiang Yue and asked.

“Boss, let’s stop beating around the bush. What exactly do you want to ask?”

“Well, I have to say that Mr. Jiang is one of the most enjoyable but also the most difficult business partners I have ever met.”

“I’m curious, what price is Mr. Jiang willing to pay for this ancient talisman?”

 “Real price?”

 “Real price!”

"The boss is asking this sincerely, and I won't play tricks with you. I can produce a second-level evil-proofing talisman for this residual talisman, which is already its maximum trading value. If it is any higher, it will definitely be unrealistic."
