When he saw the parrot's price, Lin Xi's face turned a little odd. Although he currently had a deposit of almost a hundred thousand, he was actually only able to afford a parrot. He was feeling more than just awkward, he turned around and left the flower bird shop without thinking.

"This place is really a very profitable business. As long as I can sell one, I'm afraid that I will be able to get a year's worth of salary. It might even be a lot more than that."

As Lin Xi walked over to the Flower Bird Market on a street, although Lin Xi was drooling over the profits, he wasn't too interested in it. Instead, he was extremely interested in antiques.

It was not because he had any intentions towards antiques, but because he had been a pawnshop clerk for more than half a year.

However, if one were to talk about his understanding of antiques, it could only be described as almost nothing. He was only feeling dry envy; he had once wanted to teach himself a little bit of the antiques, but he had been delayed because he was too busy, so now he was out of work.

Moreover, he also had another thought. He remembered the first time he saw the Buddha statue, the moment he saw it, the Buddha statue disintegrated into countless green rays of light and even absorbed a portion of it.

Looking at the Buddha statue again, it seemed to be quite old. He wanted to see if he could find a similar object that could produce green light.

Fortunately, he had already figured out the function of the Sky Eye, so he was still able to use it quite easily. He should be able to use it very easily, and the only thing he needed to consider was how to use less green light in the depths of his eye sockets.

In fact, Lin Xi had a guess, that the Buddha statue was not that simple, maybe it was really a treasure that was worth a lot of money, and the reason he brought it here to show the so-called big boss was to find out whether the Buddha statue was really an antique or not.

After all, he did not dabble in antiques and antiques, while that senior was in the jewelry business. Moreover, he was a master in Jewelry World, so he would at least have some understanding of antiques.

Of course, only he himself knew about this. He hadn't even told Ang Youyong about it before.

After strolling around the Flower Bird Market, Lin Xi returned from the street and looked at Antique Market s on the other side. Aside from the well-arranged shops, there were also a lot of business people with idle stalls, just like the one he had met the day he left the market.

Although most of the people who set up the stalls here were similar to the ones who sold handicrafts, there were still some differences. This was because even though there were real goods here, they needed to rely on their own eyesight to either find them and celebrate with them, or carry a fake back home and cry.

And the person who sold the handicrafts that day was someone who shouted it loud and clear, but there was no real thing about him, nor was there any real thing about him.

Actually, Lin Xi did not come here for antiques, but purely to try his luck. Ever since he started experimenting with the Sky Eye on the train, he felt that the green rays of light in the depths of his eyes had decreased a lot, so he wanted to see if he could come across an object that contained the same kind of green rays as the Buddha statue, in order to supplement the green rays of light.

After all, as his Discipline, the Heaven's Eyes would definitely give him a lot of convenience in the future.

After walking through the other side of the Antique Street, Lin Xi was able to observe every single booth with a serious expression. However, he did not dare to casually use the Heaven's Eyes, but he would occasionally see something that looked like an old object, and only used the Heaven's Eyes to look.

However, what he did not expect was that although these objects were old, none of them contained green light. Instead, the green light in the depths of his eyes dimmed even more.

Could these things be far inferior to the Buddha statue?

Lin Xi was a little disappointed and sluggish in his heart. Maybe it was really just because the Buddha statue was special, but what Lin Xi was most worried about was still the green light shining from the depths of his eyes.

He was truly worried that after the green light was completely used up, his own Heavenly Eye would disappear. If he lost the Heavenly Eye that he had obtained with great difficulty, then he would not even be able to cry.

Furthermore, when he was using the Heaven's Eyes, something strange would appear in Lin Xi's eyes. Although it was a short period of time, if he met someone he wanted to use it on, they would probably notice him too. Therefore, every time he used the Heaven's Eye to avoid the crowds, which also made him a little troubled.

Furthermore, there were many things on the Antique Street. Be it in the stores or the stalls on the ground, they were all made of porcelain, ancient books, paintings, gold and silver, and Qin Dynasty Brick, Hanwa, Song Ji, and the snuff bottle were all in a mess. There were even various red colored books, armbands, and stamps that were hard to differentiate.

As for whether they would pick up the loot or make a mistake, it all depended on the buyer's pair of performances. Of course, there would also be luck involved.

However, when Lin Xi walked past shops and booths, he would pick up all the items that he thought to be not bad and carefully studied them. Even if he did not understand, he had to pretend to understand.

Suddenly, a nearby stall caught Lin Xi's attention. There seemed to be something interesting to watch.

The stall owner was a fat man, much fatter than Ang Youyong. He was short, and every word he said would cause the flesh on his face to quiver.

There was a tall and thin man standing next to the fat man. He was taller than the fat man by a full head, but he was as thin as a bamboo pole.

The thin man had wrapped himself in a thick grey cotton jacket in this not too cold weather. The cotton jacket had two holes in it, and the cotton from the holes was flapping in the air with snow-white cotton threads. He also had a small felt hat on his head, just like the old shopkeeper in the pawnshop in the television.

With this combination of fat and thin, Lin Xi couldn't help but think of the fat and thin monk in Elder Jin's novel < < Deer Tripod > >.

In front of the two of them, there was an old man with a black peaked cap on his head. He wore a red tang suit, and on his left breast hung a dragon shaped jade pendant.

In one hand, the old man was holding a walking stick with a dragon's head, while in the other, he was constantly rolling and playing with a pair of health balls. Strangely, those health balls were not iron balls, but two shining purple walnuts.

"Brother Ma, this old mister wants to see our treasure. Take it out and give him a look …"

The fatty, who was called Brother Ma by the lanky man, snorted. His expression was rather arrogant, as if he was dissatisfied with the elder the thin man brought, "Little Six, that treasure was set down by Boss Zheng long ago. Why did you bring an outsider here?"

Brother Ma turned his head and apologized to the old man. He cupped his fists and said arrogantly, "Old sir, I am really sorry. Someone already wanted my darling. Please forgive me!"

Don't look at how Brother Ma acted. In his arrogance, there was a tinge of righteousness, but what Lin Xi was watching from the side was bright and clear. In the corner of his eyes, every single time Brother Ma spoke, he would glance at the old man to observe his reaction.

Lin Xi immediately felt that this was interesting, it seemed like he had met someone who had been taken care of.

In fact, there were quite a number of children in the society nowadays. They had become an occupation in all walks of life, much better than Yellow Ox. The two people in front of him were clearly children in the same line of work.
