To Tell You the Truth —

"Grandpa, isn't your house for sale already? You can sell it to the Yao family now. They're very rich people."

Mu Yaoyao gave Chief Yao a look, prompting him to speak.

Chief Yao smiled. "Grand Secretary Fang, I heard that this house is selling for 10,000 taels of silver? Well, the Yao clan is willing to give you a million silver taels, together with a ten-thousand-year-old lingzhi mushroom and a blood ginseng."

Ten times?!

The Yao clan was offering a price ten times what was asked for!

They weren't buying a house! They were dumping money on the old man!

Feng Wu was alarmed.

Could it be that the Yao family had learned of the possible treasure hidden in this house? Otherwise, why would they offer an exorbitantly high price? This didn't make sense.

Grand Secretary Fang thought the same.

He gestured at an empty chair in front of him.

Flattered, Chief Yao only sat down after politely declining at first.
