Chen Qing returned to his small courtyard, bolted the doors and windows, and only then laid out all his spoils.
The silver notes formed a thick stack, all large-denomination bills from the Hundred Treasures Pavilion, redeemable on demand. A quick count revealed a staggering sum of nearly fifteen thousand taels.
There was also a small bag of gold leaves, a few pieces of jewelry inlaid with gemstones, and three white porcelain Elixir Bottles.
He uncorked a bottle and took a light sniff. A rich, medicinal fragrance assailed his nostrils. It was the Truth Condensing Pill, perfect for a Cultivator in the Embrace Pill Realm to advance their Cultivation. Each bottle held ten pills and was worth a small fortune.
Chen Qing's gaze was serene as he surveyed the valuables.
Including the yet-to-be-processed Treasure Medicines and Weapons he had acquired in the Ten Thousand Poison Swamp, the total value in silver would be substantial.
