114 The Internet, Stunned! A Tomb Guardian’s Corpse?! (3)
After answering the fifth consecutive call, Luo Feng helplessly waved the phone in his hand.
“Alright, alright. Thanks for rejecting them for me, I’ll treat you to a meal another day!”
Qin Rubing said and stuck out her tongue playfully.
The woman had only one personality: when she was happy, she acted cute and spoiled.
But when she got angry, she would throw a fit.
Luo Feng said, “The meal is the bare minimum you’d have to do to repay me. I turned down an official museum for your sake, you know? The other offers came from private organizations so they don’t matter as much.”
“There’s nothing to worry about. Ever since the government passed the law that allows whoever that digs up unowned relics to keep them, nobody will hold a grudge against you even if you don’t sell the fossil to them.” Qin Rubing comforted.
“I see! Though, the main reason that I rejected them is because of their lowball offers.”
The moment Luo Feng finished speaking, he sensed an icy cold gaze glaring down at him. “Huh!? So what you’re saying is that once somebody offers you the right price, you’re going to betray me!?”
“Nah, I won’t! After all, you promised to cover the difference with my expected price, so I won’t sell it to anyone else!”
Being the money-minded person he was, Luo Feng would yield to whichever party that was willing to offer him more money.
He cared not for loyalty or any other useless sentiments.
“Can you guys stop flirting? Are we going to continue digging for treasures or not?”
Unable to stand the situation any longer, Zhang Shunyong walked over and urged Luo Feng to resume his work.
Zhang Shunyong could remember a time where he had the hots for Qin Rubing.
However, after observing her interactions with Luo Feng for some time…
He gave up. He realized that the woman was not an easy target to pursue.
“Ha! Alright, time to get back to work!”
Luo Feng shot Qin Rubing a helpless glance before directing his gaze at the long legs tightly wrapped in the mountaineering suit.
Oh my God.
I can’t take it anymore.
They look straight out of an anime!
Just imagining my face tucked between them…
Ahhhh.
“F*cking pervert!”
Qin Rubing instantly noticed Luo Feng’s gaze and silently cursed at him.
However, her anger soon morphed into a silent celebration as she mentally smiled.
It was the dream of every woman to be able catch the eyes of men.
“Damn it, Ji Shunjin still has the nerve to call?”
Luo Feng had just left his resting spot under the tree when he suddenly received a call.
Upon noticing the caller ID, however, he instantly lost all motivation to pick it up.
You attempted to take advantage of me previously, so don’t even think about doing business with me any more.
However…
Ji Shunjin called Luo Feng up a few more times right after.
“Hello, Boss Ji, what do you want?”
“Little Luo, we of Natural Home, are willing to pay 5 million for the saber-toothed tiger’s fossil. How about it? Would you consider our offer?”
“I’m sorry, but I’ve already made a deal with someone else!”
“Ah? I see, what a pity, then!”
What a clown!
Qin Rubing has already made a promise to me, that should the fossil sell for below 5 million in her auction, she’s willing to cover up the difference in price.
With such a great offer on the table, why would I even bother to transact with a conniving scumbag like you!?
…
“Now look at what you’ve done!”
“You offended Luo Feng all for the sake of making some small profits! Now what? No matter how high a price we offer Luo Feng, I doubt he’ll ever do business with us again!”
There were many bosses within Natural Home.
Ji Shunjin was merely a member who was in charge of management.
There were many more powerful backers behind the organization, and it was someone from this group of powerful individuals that was berating him.
“Brother Sun, listen to me. I’ve recently found a streamer who’s also good at treasure hunting! The items that he digs up aren’t bad either! Let’s build a good relationship with him! When the time comes, we’ll just auction off whatever good stuff he manages to find!”
“Do you have a screw loose or something? The items he digs up are all plastic replicas, and all of his streams are scripted! Tell me, are you saying that we should auction some plastic knock-off in our store?!”
Once his rant was over, Brother Sun flicked his sleeves and left the headquarters of Natural Home.
…
….
“Host, did you get a good rest? Are you going to start digging again?”
“That saber-toothed tiger fossil should be a hot commodity. How did things go? Did you manage to secure a good deal? ”
...
“I think the fossil should be worth around a million?”
“Methinks it’s worth 2 million.”
Moments after Luo Feng had restarted his stream, he was immediately bombarded with questions from his viewers. In order to put a rest to the spam, he addressed them, “I got an offer for 5 million! So, zip it for now!”
“???”
“Holy sh*t! 5 million?”
“The host is exaggerating, right? It’s just a rare collectible, it shouldn’t go for that high!”
“Only a T-rex should be worth that much!”
“I’ll leave you all to decide whether to believe my words or not. But let me just say that this was the price offered by a certain long-legged woman. Go and confirm the offer with her if you want.” Luo Feng said while directing his attention towards a certain someone.
His benefactor that he had referred to was a nickname that his viewers had given to Qin Rubing.
A mere instant after speaking those words, Luo Feng felt a frigid chill creeping up his back, as if he had daggers pointed at him.
He turned around.
...
Qin Rubing was glaring at him like a tigress.
She seemed to be sending him a message.
Long-legged woman, you say?
F*ck you! Don’t you have a better nickname!?
“Ahem, ahem. Sorry brothers, I seem to have spotted a wild tiger in the area. I’m going to be flee for now!”
Luo Feng hurriedly hoisted up his Swallowtail and spurred away.
Nevertheless, he was finally done with all the dots in the latest scanned area.
As such, he simply wandered and dug mindlessly for the rest of the day, making sure to stop and look around as if he was searching for something while doing so.
After acting for what was considered to be a sufficient amount of time, Luo Feng called it quits.
He left the area in which he had previously scanned and headed elsewhere.
He soon reached a rare open area within the mountains.
There was no greenery present at the site, only a barren slope.
“Scanning system activate!”
Invisible waves projected across the landscape, and before long, Luo Feng received a system notification.
[ Ding! 365 spots found! ]
Holy sh*t!
More than 300!
Another huge cluster!?
And…
From the looks of it, these dots seemed to be within a range of 500 meters of each other!
Even the steel factory’s dots weren’t as dense as this!
Luo Feng’s curiosity was instantly piqued.
“Long-legged Woman, what happened to your hand?”
Right as Luo Feng was about to start digging, he noticed Qin Rubing’s silhouette approaching him, and she was rubbing her hands as she made her way over.
Could she have gotten scratches from some thorny flora?
“There are so many mosquitoes here, look!”
Qin Rubing stretched out her slender hand as she spoke, displaying the mosquito bites that had marred her previously flawless skin.
Luo Feng could not help but think that her hand was gorgeous.
