Chapter 216: Xiulan Wants to Build a Hidden Treasure Compartment
Lin Yue returned home with Lin Heng, carrying a basket filled with some purple and red crystals.
Lin Heng examined them closely, turning them over in his hands, but couldn’t recognize them. He asked, “Where did you dig these up?”
Strictly speaking, these weren’t stones but some kind of crystal. Two pieces were semi-transparent with a beautiful purple hue, featuring smooth tetrahedral surfaces.
Lin Yue chuckled, “I found them when I went up the mountain with your sister-in-law to dig for yams and kudzu roots.”
After a pause, he continued, “We dug them up by the creek while searching for yams. I’m not sure if there are more nearby. Do you think these could be worth some money?”
Hearing this, Lin Heng had a rough idea and looked at them again. “These should be some kind of crystal. They could fetch a bit of money, but it’s hard to say for sure. I doubt there are any buyers around here.”
Crystals are quite common, and only those of particularly high quality are valuable. The pieces his brother found looked pretty but lacked transparency.
Lin Heng’s words left Lin Yue a bit disappointed. “I thought they might be worth something.”
