Da Xuan Calendar, year 1427, June.
In Yu State's Yu County, there was a severe drought and disturbances, stretching over half a month.
...
Amidst pitch darkness,
warmth rippled as if bathing in the spring breeze.
Suddenly a lamp was lit, dispelling the nearby darkness, and a jade hand placed the lamp to the side.
"It's huge..."
Xu Hongyu was slightly stunned.
In the cellar before her sat an enormous block of Flame Jade, about seven feet long, three feet wide, and nearly a foot thick.
Even for her, a direct descendant of the Yu Family who had been spoiled since birth and had seen many treasures and rarities, this was the first time she had encountered such a colossal piece of top-grade Flame Jade. Even if it was sold off slowly in pieces, it would be worth hundreds of thousands of taels.
"Well, that's pretty much the situation, what do you think about sneaking it into Yu City?"
Chen Mu asked from aside.
