Chapter 269: Chapter 269: Door-to-Door Salesmanship Chapter 269: Chapter 269: Door-to-Door Salesmanship Daoist Changmin spoke, and from the cloth bag he carried with him, he produced so magic artifacts, “These are the Amulet Talismans that our Qingyun Temple has just finished processing. Elder Ye, why not take a look and choose one?”
He looked at Elder Ye with expectant, attentive eyes.
“These are all fine objects, Elder Ye.”
Although Elder Ye was a political figure, he had always harbored a belief in these things.
He had frequent contact with Qingyun Temple and personally visited to offer incense on the new moon and the full moon, sotis even staying a couple of days.
Elder Ye was not short of money, either.
On any other day, Elder Ye would have agreed imdiately.
But today, upon hearing Daoist Changmin’s offer, he didn’t show any reaction, as if he was not interested, “There’s no need for that, Xiaomin, I already have such Amulet Talismans on .”
The flattering smile on Daoist Changmin’s face froze in an instant, “Elder Ye, the items we have here are of excellent quality, as you know. In F City, our Qingyun Temple is ranked among the very best. We…”
“Xiaomin—”
Elder Ye interrupted him in a gentle voice, but with a significant look in his eyes.
“I don’t need it.”
Daoist Changmin was taken aback.
Elder Ye took out the Jade Token given to him by Jiangli, “I have this now, that’s enough.”
Daoist Changmin wanted to say that ordinary items couldn’t compare to the things from their Qingyun Temple.
But…
As soon as he saw the Jade Token in Elder Ye’s hand, Daoist Changmin’s expression stiffened.
Even though he lacked discernnt, he could tell that the Jade Token Elder Ye held was an extrely fine item.
It was much better than the Amulet Talismans prepared by Qingyun Temple.
The Amulet Talismans from Qingyun Temple were made from sandalwood, which was an inferior material.
The Spiritual Energy on the sandalwood Amulet Talismans was scant.
The Jade Token in Elder Ye’s hand was brimming with Spiritual Energy, clearly a rare treasure.
Yet, it didn’t seem to be the handiwork of anyone from F City.
Daoist Changmin was familiar with the Xuann of F City, and there shouldn’t be anyone capable of creating such an item.
With this in mind, Daoist Changmin cautiously inquired, “Did Miss Ye bring back this Jade Token from sowhere else?”
“No, this was a gift from a young friend I t today,” Elder Ye said, caressing the Jade Token fondly.
Unable to hold back, Daoist Changmin pressed for details, “So it’s soone from F City? I wonder which Taoist Temple’s master it was who managed to create such an item. I would like to pay a visit as well.”
Elder Ye chuckled, “It’s from Jiaoyang Temple. Their Abbot is quite remarkable. You must have heard of them, right?”
“Jiaoyang Temple?”
Daoist Changmin’s brow furrowed deeply.
He indeed knew of a place called Jiaoyang Temple.
In the entire F City, there was only one Jiaoyang Temple.
It was said that Jiaoyang Temple was once the leader of Xuann, but nowadays, it had long since declined.
During the tenure of the previous Abbot, Jiaoyang Temple barely managed to maintain its reputation, but he had passed away from illness not long ago and was no more.
All that was left was a disciple, whom Daoist Changmin had seen from a distance at a Xuann grand eting. That disciple had no true talent, and the idea of him holding up the reputation of Jiaoyang Temple seed utterly impossible.
Could it be that Jiaoyang Temple, despite being a shrunken cal, still had so concealed treasures?
“Xiaomin, why are you silent?” Seeing him lost in thought, Elder Ye asked.
Daoist Changmin managed a smile, “I was just thinking about Jiaoyang Temple. Elder Ye, you might have been deceived. Jiaoyang Temple has long been in decline. It’s unlikely for them to produce such fine items. You should keep trusting our Qingyun Temple.”
Upon hearing this assessnt, Elder Ye was sowhat surprised.
But he didn’t dwell on it.
He chuckled, “I actually think Jiaoyang Temple is quite good. Their Abbot is very impressive. I won’t be taking the items from Qingyun Temple this ti. Having too many of these things can beco a burden.”
