  Chapter 11 The legendary
  Rose Street is also called "Gold Diggers Street".

  It is said that at the beginning of the secondhand market, many people found antiques here, and some even made millions by selling them.

  As the news spread, a large number of "gold diggers" poured into Rose Street.

  After so many years, the "gold rush" on Rose Street not only has not receded, but has intensified.

  "It's so lively!" Xu Yi couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the streets with people coming and going.

  Rose Street is a wide open road with numerous vendors. Those who are more sophisticated can set up a table, while those who are more casual can just pull a piece of cloth and place it on the ground.

  There are also a wide variety of antiques for sale, including various silver tableware, exquisite music boxes, and even obsolete Mauser guns.

  Xu Yi squatted in front of a stall and began his great business of "sweeping goods".

  His fingers quickly swept over the antiquities, and the stall owner did not stop him. He had seen all kinds of strange people setting up stalls here, and some even used divination to select antiquities.

  Xu Yi suddenly stopped, and his fingers touched a silver dagger.

  [Psychic entry experience +2, current progress: 47/100.

  He certainly didn’t come here to hang out.

  Although the funeral parlor could continuously provide him with experience points, it was still not enough to fill up the psychic entries, so he focused on the antiquities here.

  Theoretically, anything can be contaminated with the supernatural, but compared to other things, antiques are the most likely.

  The silver dagger in front of him was one of them. Xu Yi suspected that this dagger might be a murder weapon.

  "Sir, you have good taste. This dagger was once used by members of the British royal family. It is very suitable for a person with extraordinary temperament like you. Make a friend today and just give me five hundred dollars!" the stall owner enthusiastically recommended.

  In a daze, Xu Yi even thought that he was in Panjiayuan. It is said that the urinals there were all used by Emperor Qianlong.

  "Five hundred dollars? I think it's too low. This dagger is worth at least a thousand dollars!" Xu Yi said decisively.

  The stall owner was dumbfounded. He had only heard of haggling, but had never seen someone offering a higher price. He asked a little unconfidently, "Really?" "

  Of course, can I still lie to you? This carving , this craftsmanship is obviously made by a famous artist, and it is definitely worth the money!" Xu Yi said confidently.

  The stall owner hesitated for a moment, "Forget it, I can't just sit down and raise the price, five hundred dollars is enough!"

  Xu Yi shook his head, "Sorry, I don't want to buy it!"

  The stall owner glared at Xu Yi, "If you don't buy it, you're a hammer!"
  Of course Xu Yi would not buy them. Most of these supernatural items carry resentment and long-term exposure to them by ordinary people will affect their health. Not to mention some cursed items are the home of evil spirits and demons.

  It doesn't matter to him, but it won't be good if it affects the people around him.

  All three of them had a great time on this trip to Rose Street.

  Xu Yi felt happy as he looked at the psychic entry experience that was constantly coming in, although each supernatural item did not give much experience, only two or three points.

  But it’s overwhelming that there are so many. About every three stalls, you can find a supernatural item.

  "Psychic entry experience +2, +3..."

  Hardy was also very happy. He bought a pair of ballet shoes, which were said to have been worn by a famous ballerina.

  Xu Yi secretly despised what kind of ballerina star would wear size 42 shoes. Is she not a big man who picks his feet?

  Lisa took a fancy to some trinkets, such as bracelets and headbands, which were high-quality and low-priced. You could buy a bunch of them for a few dollars.

  Xu Yi suddenly stopped and looked at the strange stall in front of him.

  There are a lot of people coming to Rose Street to shop for things. Basically there are people in front of every stall, but the stall in front of me is very deserted, with no one at all.

  The stall owner was carrying a bottle of wine and kept pouring wine into his mouth, exuding a pungent smell of wine.

  The items on the stall were even more bizarre, including horse hooves cut into flower shapes, metal products with no apparent function, and furs of unknown animals.

  No wonder there is no one here, the stall owner is a drunkard, and the things he sells are confusing. But Xu Yi started to "sweep the goods" as usual with the feeling of "I've come here".

  Fingers swept over the items. These items all carried a strange sense of coolness, but the strange thing was that they were not supernatural items, and the system did not prompt.

  His hand trembled suddenly as his fingers passed over a box.

  [Divine items discovered, entry devouring enabled, entry being generated, saint (gold)...]

  Xu Yi's eyes widened. He had never seen a green entry before, and now a gold entry appeared directly?

  The entries are divided into "white, green and blue, red, gold and purple", with a total of six levels.

  [The samples are seriously insufficient, and the entry swallowing failed.

  The system prompts stopped suddenly, and within a second, his heart fell from heaven to hell.

  Why did it fail? Xu Yi was a little crazy.

  With great perseverance, Xu Yi removed his fingers from the metal box.

  No matter how much it costs, he will buy it!

  "How much?" He picked up a wooden ring and asked.

  If you act too eagerly, you will easily get ripped off. At this time, you need to use other items to confuse the other party.

  Although the other party looks drunk, who knows if he is pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger?

  "Three thousand!" The drunk man glanced at the thing in Xu Yi's hand.

  "Are you made of diamonds?" Hardy couldn't help complaining.

  Xu Yi pretended to be calm and picked up the metal box. The box was very delicate, with reliefs of angels and devils carved on the surface.

  The box was opened, and surprisingly, there were several pieces of broken glass inside.

  It looks like a very ordinary glass, the only difference is that there are a few drops of blood on the glass.

  I don't know if it's due to the refraction of the sun, but the blood stains have a faint golden color.

  "What about this?" Xu Yi asked pretending not to care.

  The drunk man didn't even look at Xu Yi, and kept drinking. "Ten thousand."

  "Are you crazy? You only have a few pieces of broken glass, and you dare to ask for ten thousand?" Xu Yi hasn't spoken yet, haha Dee was already jumping up in shock.

  The drunk man didn't bother to answer, as if he didn't hear him.

  Xu Yi has recently been reading psychology entries whenever he has free time. The current progress is: 11/100.

  He still knows some simple psychology.

  He had been observing the other party just now. The other party was not pretending to be like this, and there was no room for bargaining.

  But you can get this kind of thing for a mere ten thousand yuan, which is simply a bargain price.

  "Where did this thing come from?" Xu Yi couldn't hold back his curiosity and asked.

  "It's passed down from our ancestors." The drunkard cherished his words like gold and obviously didn't want to say more.

  Xu Yi nodded, "I want this thing, but I don't have that much cash on me. Can you accompany me to the bank? I can pay you a hundred deposit first!" He asked the other party to follow him to withdraw the money because he was afraid

  . After he walked away, someone else had taken advantage of the item. Although it was very unlikely, it was safe to be careful.

  The drunk man took the hundred dollars, looked at Xu Yi in surprise, nodded, and then neatly put the things into the box.
