Reward: 500,000 taels of silver!

Penalty for mission failure: 1,000,000 taels of silver will be deducted, and you will not be able to purchase items with Marketplace items.

Qin Fan was shocked, he didn't expect to find something like purple lazuli in this 10,000-year-old county.

The imaginary army of steel also seems to be close at hand, due to the limitations of the times.

Qin Fan couldn't find a metal with enough hardness, but this amethyst stone was just enough to meet his needs.

Qin Fan raised his head and looked forward, only to see that the plaque of this dilapidated mansion had three big characters written on it: "Wangu Zhai".

The mansion had been abandoned for several years, and was littered with weeds, but it was still unusually sturdy.

The carved beams and paintings on it have exquisite patterns, which are obviously from the handiwork of a master, and look quite elegant and artistic.

However, Qin Fan didn't dare to take it lightly, his eyes scanned the mansion, wanting to find out what was special in this mansion.

In this mansion, it seems that no one else exists except for this middle-aged man.

"This guest officer is here to buy goods." The middle-aged man said.

Qin Fan nodded.

Outside the courtyard walls of this mansion, a middle-aged man took out the key and opened the door.

Squeak!

When the gate opened, a pungent musty smell hit the face, and the entire courtyard was filled with thick dust.

Qin Fan's brows furrowed slightly, but he still stepped into this mansion.

This mansion is very large, with hundreds of square meters, and the dust is floating out of it.

"Childe, wait a moment, I'll call our boss."

After the middle-aged man said this, he quickly ran towards the house.

Qin Fan stood in place and looked around.

He saw that in the corner of the mansion, there were all kinds of wooden boxes, and on them, all kinds of strange patterns were printed.

Qin Fan's gaze scanned the wooden boxes, and suddenly his pupils shrank, and a look of surprise appeared in his eyes.

Under his gaze, he saw that the contents of the wooden box were all various materials, as well as crystal coins.

Each of these coins is the size of a palm, and there are intricate patterns engraved on them.

The lilac luster flows and exudes a charming brilliance, and it looks extremely beautiful and unforgettable.

"What is this?"

"Is it Purple Lazuli?"

Qin Fan secretly said in his heart, his face became extremely excited.

It is said that purple lazuli is an extremely precious refining material, and its value far exceeds that of ordinary gold.

In ancient times, the preciousness of purple lazuli was not inferior to that of the divine blade.

In ancient times, it was impossible for ordinary forces to have refining materials like purple lazuli, because purple lazuli was too rare, and in the event of a large-scale war, purple lazuli could even play a decisive role.

How could such a precious thing appear in Wangufang?

Qin Fan's heart thumped.

His breath was a little short, and his eyes were fixed on the wooden boxes.

Under his gaze, wooden boxes were opened one by one.

After seeing the contents of these wooden boxes clearly, Qin Fan's face instantly turned pale and bloodless.

These wooden boxes contained all fist-sized purple lazuli.

"This ...... There are so many. 「

Qin Fan gasped, his throat rolled a few times, and he swallowed a mouthful of saliva with difficulty, with an unconcealable look of shock on his face.

"Young Master Qin, these purple gold stones were all collected from the top of a thousand mountains.

After the middle-aged man saw Qin Fan's expression, a smile appeared on his face and said, "These are all the things you want, please check them."

Qin Fan nodded, and put these wooden boxes a

One checked it out.

Inside each wooden box, there was a fist-sized purple lazuli.

Moreover, the quality of these purple lazuli stones is very high, and each one is the best purple lazuli.

"Do you have any veins here, or any minerals near them, can you tell me about them?"

After inspecting them, Qin Fan handed the wooden boxes to the middle-aged man, and then asked.

"Vein?"

The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then shook his head and said, "This Wangufang is the property of my old man, and it has a lot of mineral resources in the ancient city of Wangu, but in other places, there is nothing to gain.

Qin Fan's brows furrowed slightly, he was silent for a moment, and then said, "Since it is your boss's property, then you should know the rules, right?"

The middle-aged man was slightly stunned, and then said with a smile: "Childe, in this Wannian County, you can't mine privately, if you are interested in buying these items, then you need to follow the rules of my old man."

A smile appeared on Qin Fan's face and he said, "In that case, I'm not welcome."

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "Childe, are these all the things you need?"

Qin Fan smiled and said, "That's right.

The middle-aged man said, "Okay, I'll help you find out the source of these purple lazuli, so that you pay half of the deposit first, and you pay the rest slowly, how about it?"

"Okay, but can you tell me the name of your boss?" I can't even know your boss's name, can I? 「

Qin Fan said with a smile.

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "This is simple, our master's surname is Dong Mingsheng, and the origin of these purple lazuli stones will be told to you by our master himself."

"Dong Sheng?"

Hearing this person's name, a familiar figure flashed through Qin Fan's mind, and a thoughtful look appeared on his face.

In his memory, it was as if someone had ever mentioned him.

Thinking of this, Qin Fan's face showed a look of realization, and the appearance of the middle-aged man appeared in front of his eyes, and in the vast desert, he had some intersections with himself.

"I see, no wonder I feel that the name Dong Sheng is a little familiar, but I didn't expect that he is your master."

Qin Fan smiled slightly, nodded and said.

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "Since Childe knows our master, it's great, if you need anything in the future, just come to me, I will definitely do my best to help."

"Then I'll thank you first."

Qin Fan smiled and arched his hand.

"Childe is polite, if Childe is in need, come to me directly."

The middle-aged man hurriedly returned the salute, and then left the place.

Qin Fan looked at the direction in which the middle-aged man had disappeared, and his face showed a look of thought.

But he didn't leave immediately, but carefully observed the contents of the wooden boxes.

The contents of these wooden boxes are very valuable, and each one of them is worth a fortune, which is obviously a very large treasure.

"But how could such a precious thing be wasted here?"

Qin Fan muttered to himself.

His eyes narrowed slightly, and a thought suddenly occurred in his heart.
