"Ah! This... this thing isn't worth much anyway. Since your daughter likes it, I'll just give it to her."

The shop owner was stunned, seeing Yang Yan take down over ten people in less than a minute all by himself.

It wasn't until Yang Yan called him that he suddenly came to his senses and said tremblingly.

"Even if it's not worth much, it still costs money. How could I let you lose out! Just tell me, how much?"

Yang Yan shook his head and said.

The shop owner hesitated for a moment, then carefully said with a smile:

"I got this stone from the countryside. I paid eight hundred yuan when I bought it; just give me the cost price."

Hearing the shop owner mention that the stone cost eight hundred, Yang Yan couldn't help but frown.

Seeing his reaction, the shop owner shivered and hurriedly said:

"Or... Six hundred will do. But, I really did buy this stone for eight hundred yuan, I'm not lying, really not lying."

Hearing the shop owner's words, Yang Yan couldn't help but smile.

This shop owner clearly misunderstood; he was actually thinking about something else just now.

He immediately pulled out a thousand yuan from his body and handed it to the owner:

"Here's a thousand, just to let you make a little profit. I'll take the stone."

Yang Yan took the stone and walked away with Zhou Hanyun and the others, leaving the shop owner bewildered, along with the groaning hooligans on the ground.

Of course, there was also Wang Lun, still lying motionless in the snow.

"Got a bargain? That stone must be something good, right?"

Zhou Hanyun couldn't help but ask.

"How do you know?"

Yang Yan asked suspiciously.

"Your mouth was practically reaching the back of your head, how could I not know? I might as well be blind,"

Zhou Hanyun exaggeratedly rolled her eyes and said grumpily.

"Hehe! It is indeed something good, but useless for ordinary people. However, it's very useful for Ruyi. That's why Ruyi didn't put this stone down, but asked me to buy it for her."

Yang Yan said with a smile.

"Let me see, let me see."

Zhou Hanyu, hearing this, hurriedly took the stone to examine it.

But no matter how she looked at it, she couldn't find anything special, so she had no choice but to pout:

"Other than looking a bit nicer, it's no different from ordinary stones!"

Yang Yan smiled but didn't explain further.

Not long after the hooligans lying on the ground were taken away, an old man walked past the stall.

When he walked past, he suddenly stopped, then turned around to look at the stall, his eyes flickering.

He then squatted down, touched the items on the stall, and asked:

"Owner, did you have a Five-Colored Stone here?"

"Yes, I did, but it's already sold. You're a bit late."

The owner replied.

He evidently thought that this person must have seen the stone on his stall before to ask about it.

"Oh? Sold? To whom? How long ago was it sold?"

The old man immediately asked further.

"Just sold not long ago, why?"

The owner asked curiously.

"Do you have more stones like this? I'm willing to buy at a high price,"

The old man said with a smile.

"High price? How high?"

The owner couldn't help but laugh.

He didn't think this unimpressive old man could offer much money.

Of course, he didn't have any stones like that either, he was just asking casually.

"Ten million! As long as you can get stones like this, no matter how many, I'll pay ten million each."

The old man said seriously.

As soon as the old man finished speaking, the stall owner was instantly dumbfounded.

After so many years of struggling in society, he could tell this old man was telling the truth, no lies.

Ten million!

That was ten million!

Something worth ten million was sold by him for just a thousand.

No wonder when he asked for eight hundred, the other party insisted on giving a thousand.

The owner said dejectedly:

"I have no more, really no more. That piece was collected by chance when I was gathering supplies in the countryside. What on earth is this thing? How could it be so valuable!"

The old man glanced at the owner but did not explain what the stone was for, just said seriously:

"Keep an eye out for me, if you find more stones like this, call the number on this card, and I promise ten million each. Also, which way did the buyers of your stone go?"

"They went that way."

The owner said as he took the old man's business card and pointed to the street on the right.

He had already resolved to go back and search carefully to see if he could find more of these stones.

After all, that was ten million!

When the regretful owner looked up again, the old man was already out of sight.

After such a commotion, the owner lost interest in running the stall and hurriedly packed up to search for his ten million.

Following the direction the owner pointed out, the old man quickly walked forward, hoping to catch up with Yang Yan.

He didn't expect that on a whim today to wander around, he would encounter Dragon Blood Stone.

Although it was bought by someone else, it hadn't been long since they left, and the scent of the Dragon Blood Stone could still be vaguely smelled in the air.

In front of them, Yang Yan and his group, except for Zhou Hanyun, each held a candied hawthorn stick.

In the Imperial Capital, the most famous foods are undoubtedly candied hawthorns and roast duck.

As they were pondering whether to try the roast duck at Quanjude later, Yang Yan suddenly looked back.

He then frowned and hastily said to Zhou Hanyun:

"You take them to eat roast duck first, not necessarily at Quanjude, anywhere is fine, I'll join you later."

With that, Yang Yan squatted down and said to Ruyi:

"Ruyi dear, can Papa borrow your Five-Colored Stone for a bit? I promise to give it back to you shortly."

Ruyi looked at Yang Yan and reluctantly handed over the stone, then couldn't help but remind him:

"Papa, you promised to give the stone back to me later!"

"Yes, don't worry, Papa keeps his promises, I'll definitely return it to Ruyi."

Yang Yan assured her, then stood up and said to Zhou Hanyun:

"You go ahead, I'll catch up with you later."

Seeing Yang Yan's expression, Zhou Hanyun knew he had something urgent to deal with, so she advised:

"Be careful, we'll wait for you at the roast duck shop ahead."

With that, Zhou Hanyun led Ruyi and the others to the roast duck restaurant they had found on Baidu Maps.

Once Zhou Hanyun left, Yang Yan turned and walked towards a less crowded area.

Soon after, he entered a small alley, then stood inside it and called out:

"You've come, so show yourself quickly!"

As his voice fell, an old man walked into the alley.

After entering, the old man carefully observed Yang Yan and then said:

"Hello, young friend. I apologize for the intrusion, please forgive me."

Yang Yan also scrutinized the old man and then said:

"I wonder why the gentleman has been following us?"
