Chapter 433: Treasure map
T4 displayed hundreds of crowns decorated in various styles, with different jewels, some of which did not exist on earth. Some were exquisite and others simple, the price differed according to the materials and craftmanship.
"Let’s stick to gold, diamond, rubies and jade. I want only materials that come from earth, I don’t need to be invited to the royal place to explain if I have discovered a rare mineral mine that I am choosing to hide from them. That would be treason I think."
The choices dwindled and only fifty remained.
"So few." she said.
"Yes well, your gold is not that valuable where I come from, remember? And diamonds are mostly sparkly but not considered very valuable. Most of the highly valued jewels on my world are made from a mineral called Verite. Verite has the ability to add a charm and glow to the wearer. Ours are jewels with a purpose not just decoration pieces. I do admit though, the sparkle of a diamond is eye catching."
Her eyes glistened and she asked, "Why haven’t you given me some of those jewels for personal use."
"Because you only drooled over the gold, silver, diamonds and jades. Anyway pick what you want quickly, you have a new mission and this one needs to be rushed."
She picked two crowns, the queen dowager would make her own selection. She needed to see what the urgent mission was because it could not interfere with her pre-planned trip.
Mission: Retrieve the first piece of a treasure map in the city from these coordinates 17.25456,-40.69098. 30 degrees North and 70 degrees west.
