Chapter 341 Wynter the Expert
By 5:00 p.m., the crowd in Panzarath began to increase gradually. The lights were coming on, and the vendors were all arranging their items.
Nowadays, with the development of the internet, there were even people livestreaming to sell their items.
Despite the large number of people, it wasn’t noisy. Everyone was whispering to each other.
At this moment, various gemstone accessories were also on display.
Wynter’s goal of buying Evercrest Gems seemed simple. However, it
was challenging. The difficulty lay in the fact that there wasn’t much
profit in it unless they were carved.
Unfortunately, Wynter wanted the gemstones themselves. Only two shops were offering them, and the prices quoted by the owners were
somewhat unreasonable.
Ronan held a paper fan and said, “Mr. Lott, this is too much. You want 1,000 dollars for three gemstones?”
“These gemstones are really from Evercrest. You have to consider my travel costs too,” the owner, Robert Lott, replied.
“Sir Rathbone, you know how difficult business is getting. Why not buy an item from me, and I’ll throw in the gemstones for you? How about this aromatic sugilite charm? It’s been around for quite a few years.”
Ronan was indeed interested in the sugilite charm. “Don’t try to fool
me.”
“I would never dare!” Robert exclaimed. “You’re an experienced dealer. If this charm passes through your hands and goes on auction again, its price will skyrocket!”
Ronan took the sugilite charm and continued examining it.
Meanwhile, Wynter grabbed about a dozen copper coins from
Robert’s jar and played with them in her hand. “How much for the
charm?”
“Oh, miss, you shouldn’t ask about the price like that.” Robert smiled and immediately brought out a calculator. “Is this your first time here?
“Yeap,” Wynter replied casually.
“Sir Rathbone is a regular customer of mine.” Robert gestured an eight with his fingers.
Wynter raised an eyebrow. “800 dollars seems a bit expensive.”
“What do you mean 800?” Robert suddenly got a bit flustered. “Ar
you joking with me? Look at the quality of this sugilite charm. 800 dollars? Sir Rathbone, if you don’t want to buy, you can just leave.”
Ronan quickly intervened, “My niece is young and doesn’t know much. Don’t get agitated, Mr. Lott.”
Robert also wanted to make a sale, so he proposed, “How about this? He then gestured a six. “And I’ll throw in the Evercrest Gem for you.”
“What about the copper coins?” Wynter asked casually.

Robert thought to himself that this young lady was really naive. She was asking for the least valuable items. “Sure, I’ll throw them in. Take your pick. But next time you come to Panzarath, make sure not to do this again.”
“Okay,” Wynter replied with a faint smile.
Ronan thought the sugilite charm was quite good. He knew he could. make around ten thousand dollars in profit from it, so he went ahead and paid for it.
As soon as the two finished their transaction, Robert watched as Wynter pulled out a flashlight and began shining it on the copper coins she had received as a gift.
He was shocked that a young lady who didn’t know anything knew to use a flashlight to inspect items. This was something only experts in their circle knew about. Robert was dumbfounded and turned to
Ronan.
Ronan also looked bewildered. “A flashlight?”
“Oh, it’s for inspecting goods,” Wynter explained casually and showe him the coin. “Sometimes, you can’t see certain things in natural light Wolf, pass me the blade and oil.”
Wolf immediately unzipped a black bag and handed over the
professional equipment.
Wynter carefully pressed the blade against the rusty back of the
copper coin, and the rust peeled away to reveal its true face. The coin
gleamed with a bright, yellowish glow. It was clearly a rare and
valuable item.

Robert’s eyes widened in astonishment, and he exclaimed, “A lucky
token! That’s a lucky token!”
