Chapter 11: A Deal And Escape
Han Yu had seen rich merchants and noble ladies wear pearls before, but this was the first time he had ever seen such an elegant pearl.
While he was no jeweler or gemologist, he was a Scammer.
Which meant he was better than them at assessing value.
One look was all it took for Han Yu to realize—this might be the most valuable pearl he had ever seen. In fact, it might just be the most valuable pearl that had ever existed.
The only question was... how the hell did the ghost of a beggar get his hands on it?
'That's certainly not something you find in a ditch,' Han Yu mused. 'Is he not a beggar, perhaps? A noble? A warrior?'
His eyes flickered back to the ghostly man, scrutinizing his athletic build. Through his tattered robes, Han Yu could make out lean muscle, even though the man was currently injured.
This was not something an average person could maintain.
'Hell, if beggars were this fit, I'd want to be one too.'
At this point, one thing was crystal clear—the man in front of him was no ghost.
And he was certainly no commoner either.
