Chapter 1310: Chapter 1306: Returning to Dashilan

Huo Sining t up with Su Anning and Liu Pengcheng at the entrance of Dashilar, and the four of them walked inside together.

Liu Pengcheng suddenly rembered sothing and asked, "Sister Huo, there’s sothing I’ve been aning to ask you. I heard from Mr. Zhou that you have a top-notch Liu Guan Zhang Bloodstone. I wonder if you’re considering selling it?"

Huo Sining was taken aback. She slapped her forehead and exclaid, "Brother Liu, if you hadn’t ntioned it, I would have forgotten. Yes, I do have a Liu Guan Zhang Bloodstone, which I got from a stone gamble in Changhua. But isn’t my Jade Beauty carved by a master sculptor? After the Liu Guan Zhang was unearthed, I asked him to carve several seals from it. Do you want to buy one?"

Liu Pengcheng nodded, "I’ve also been to Changhua, but I lost several gambles in a row and didn’t have the luck. I didn’t even encounter an ordinary Chicken Blood Stone with a bit of red, let alone a Liu Guan Zhang. If you have any seals to spare, could you give

one? I’ll make sure you’re compensated well."

Upon hearing this, Huo Sining chuckled. She was also in Changhua during Liu Pengcheng’s stone trading visit, albeit disguised with heavy makeup, so he definitely didn’t recognize her.

A seal is just a seal; she had a whole mineral mine of Dahongpao bloodstone from Yuyan Mountain. Such a trifle was really insignificant to her: "Why bother with money? I’ll just give you one for free."

Su Anning perked up at this, "What’s Liu Guan Zhang? You’re giving one to Brother Liu, what about ?"

Seeing Su Anning pouting indignantly, Huo Sining was amused, thinking this girl really doesn’t treat herself as an outsider.

"Alright, I’ll give both of you one each. I’ll bring it when I co to the Imperial Capital next ti," Huo Sining declared generously, with a wave of her hand.

Liu Pengcheng felt a bit uncomfortable upon hearing this.

Su Anning might not understand the value of the Liu Guan Zhang seal, but Liu Pengcheng certainly did. Seeing Su Anning’s carefree deanor, he sighed inwardly and said to Huo Sining:

"Miss Huo, that Chicken Blood Stone is worth quite a bit. Should I convert it to cash or transfer it directly? Let

pay you."

Huo Sining wasn’t pleased with this remark, "Brother Liu, that’s not right. This thing is just sitting idle with . It’s not practical, and besides, it’s nothing significant in my eyes. Talking money between us would ruin our friendship, wouldn’t it?"

As Liu Pengcheng was about to say more, Su Anning noticed his odd expression and caught on, quickly asking, "Brother, is the Chicken Blood Stone seal really valuable?"

Before Liu Pengcheng could answer, Huo Sining interrupted, "What’s all this talk about money? If you really consider

a friend, do we need this talk? Besides, what might be rare for you is just a piece of stone to . If you both ntion money again, I might really turn them down!"

With things laid out like this, Liu Pengcheng had no choice but to drop the subject.

Moreover, he had learned about Huo Sining’s circumstances from other sources, knowing that she probably lacked nothing but money now. If he insisted on giving her money, it might truly offend her. It would be better to offer compensation in other ways, but this couldn’t be rushed; he could seize an opportunity later.

"Since you’re saying we shouldn’t talk about it, we won’t. But I must still express my gratitude."

Liu Pengcheng was a straightforward person. He knew the etiquettes due after receiving benefits from others.

Though Huo Sining hadn’t interacted much with Liu Pengcheng, she had seen his righteous manner in Changhua. This man did not tolerate anything shady, carried a spirit of integrity and uprightness, and was a top student of Su Zhongqing, suggesting good character for sure.

Yet, such a person was dumped by Xing Jiaojiao, which left Huo Sining sowhat lancholy, sighing inwardly.

"Are you two here on Antique Street looking for sothing specific? Having a purpose in mind would make the search quicker."

Once inside Dashilar, seeing all the items sold at the stalls dazzled Huo Sining. Picking out genuine artifacts from this jumble wasn’t easy.

Liu Pengcheng thought for a mont before saying, "I recently broke an inkstone, and hope to find a good one here. If not, I’ll just pick whatever suitable cos by."

anwhile, Su Anning was more direct, "I just hope to find a good deal, nothing specific in mind."

Huo Sining was montarily exasperated.

"Let’s keep looking while we walk."

While speaking, Huo Sining couldn’t help but start scanning the stalls for inkstones.

Finding antiques on Antique Street isn’t an easy task. Scoring a deal requires both a discerning eye and a bit of luck; it’s not always possible to buy what you want.

Inkstones were plenty at Dashilar, but as the protege of Su Zhongqing, Liu Pengcheng naturally couldn’t settle for ordinary ones that might not match his status; ordinary inkstones might not catch his fancy.

They visited stall after stall along almost half the street, turned over many items but failed to find any worthwhile artifacts. Inkstones were found, but unfortunately, all were either fakes or damaged; no genuine pieces were encountered.

Liu Pengcheng and Su Anning both appeared dejected, making Huo Sining chuckle inwardly. These two seed mismatched in temperant, yet sotis surprisingly alike.

As the search yielded no fruit, they decided to head towards Liulichang or Panjiayuan to take a look.

Just as they were about to leave, Huo Sining’s eyes inadvertently glimpsed a nondescript stall beside them. Her eyes settled on a pottery piece in the corner of the stall, stopping her dead in her tracks.

"Ningning, let’s go; this place is full of counterfeits, let’s check elsewhere."

Having spent the morning with no finds, Su Anning felt sowhat frustrated. Seeing Huo Sining stop, thinking she wanted to try her luck again, she couldn’t help but give her a gentle tug.

"Wait, I see sothing interesting."

Huo Sining whispered to Su Anning, inching closer to the stall.

What caught Huo Sining’s attention was a pitch-black, flat-bottod ceramic jar.

The ceramic jar was covered with dust and dirt, appearing entirely black with no colored glaze. It had little to no patina, looking very much like an artificially aged item.
