The Adventures Of The Young Master Chapter 169

"We're here! The Estance World Market!" Zin Shi said joyfully while stretching her hands upwards, wearing a smile.
Estance World Market. It was one of the markets of Grivexia that only those people with high status can enter with. This market boasted its premium items that could not be found in the normal market. The price of the items here was doubled or almost tripled compared to the items found outside as the market ensured its premium qualities true and legit.
Of course, it was not guaranteed that all items here were priceless. There was a street here in this market that was called 'Hawker's Street', where the prices of the items were reduced, and they were running their business validly. Here in this street, you can find street hawkers lining up from left to right shouting and endorsing the goods they were selling and the prices were really low. Well, there were items that were expensive. But beware, as the Estance World Market was not taking any inspection here in this street as it was considered as 'untouchable'. So when you're short on money and still wanted to buy some stuff, Hawker Street was your best pick.
But fret not. As the market had made a solution to this. Which was the Estance World Market had its own team of master appraisers that was only available here. The master appraisers were said to be experts and trusted as they never had failed to appraise a single item. So, customers could hire them for a moment and help them pick an item. These master appraisers were a bit expensive though, as it was not easy to appraise an item. If you have the luxury to hire one, then you better go for it, you'll feel more secure with this.
The bustling and the grand view appeared in Jin Rou's sight as they entered the market. Tons of towering buildings and small shops could be seen left and right. However, this space was not too crowded as this place was called 'Premium Street', where a bunch of goods was sold at a high price. Although La Estance had personally inspected the items, there was no hundred percent guarantee that there were no fake items that bypassed them. After all, people were born to be tricky. So, having a master appraiser would help you greatly. And if you knew that master appraiser, he or she might decrease the price of hiring them.

The people bustling outside held great demeanor as if they were first-class beings, having their heads chinned up. They were like proud beings who stood tall in this world. This was given to be honest, as they were really from the upper society of this world. Like youngmasters who came from a sect with an Immortal Emperor.
"The ambiance of this place is classy." Jin Rou was impressed. He could feel the grand vibe being emitted by this place. Those rich people would really find this pretty good, as they liked rich and classic, grand vibe.
"Well, this is the Premium Street, after all." Zin Shi said, "This place is only for rich people that had the Silver Card of La Estance or higher."
She paused for a moment and said, "It's thanks to Youngmaster Jin that I could come here again for the second time."
"Your second time?" Jin Rou asked.
"Yes, I had been here the first time together with my deceased grandfather as we are tasked to buy a very important medicinal herb here." Zin Shi's eyes were filled with sadness as she reminisced the time that her grandfather was still alive. However, it only flashed her eyes as she could not let herself be drowned in sadness for now, "As I know the ways here, I can personally guide you though I am not that good if you hire a guide here."
"No problem. It would be great if it's you." Jin Rou smiled and said.
"..." Zin Shi blushed in shame the moment she heard those words and turned her back, not to let Jin Rou notice her reaction. 'Seriously, what is happening to me? Why would I have such reactions just by talking with this man?' She asked herself. Her heart started beating abnormally ever since that moment they talked outside the guildmaster's room. There were moments she was confused already. Was this they so-called liking someone? But everything had happened too fast. How possible would it be to fall in love in just an almost single day?

"Whatever. Let's go." Zin Shi said and started walking away.
"Sure." Jin Rou was oblivious from the girl's reaction and just smiled, and walked by the second.

"Do you need anything? I mean, you have a large number of rubies so you can buy a good item here." Zin Shi said as they stopped into a small shop called 'Zang Hueru', "This shop is said to have the best items and the rich have proved it correct. So there's no reason to doubt this shop although this is small. After all, this shop had their own personal master appraiser."
"Oh?" Jin Rou said, feeling uninterested. Seriously, what item would attract him in this kind of place? But as he was still a child, adventuring the outside world, maybe an item or two will attract him, "I can pick later. How about you pick one first?"
"Me?" Zin Shi's beautiful eyes widened in surprise and stuttered, "No... no, no need... at all, yes. You already gave me the priceless Golden Card, so there's no need."
"Golden Card?" The shop's owner's ears twitched as she heard those words. She immediately stood up from where she was seated and said, "Youngmaster, please excuse me for a moment. I will be back."
"Huh?" The yellow-haired youngmaster was stumped to hear this. He wanted to say something, however, seeing that the shop owner was already gone in front of him, he just looked where the shop owner was going.
"Excuse me, Young Miss and Youngmaster." The shop owner. who was a matured beauty with violet hair, came up to Jin Rou and Zin Shi, "I am the owner of this little shop, Zang Hueru."
"Oh, Owner Zang." Jin Rou said without respect nor sarcasm, " We have yet to choose an item."
"That's not what I came here up for." Owner Zang did not mind the tone of Jin Rou's voice and asked, "I heard that you guys have a Golden Card?"
"Yes, yes! We have." Zin Shi almost had forgotten that Golden Card users have privilege when entering shops in this market. She immediately pulled the card from her inventory and showed it to Owner Zang.
Owner Zang, on the other hand, widened her smile as if she found a priceless treasure.

Esper: Search for Power
Dan Martin has a good life. He's respected at his job, and enjoys his work. He is close to his family, and they love and support him. With engaging hobbies, relative financial security, and freedom to learn and pursue his interests, Dan is happy. So it's not particularly welcome when he's selected by an inscrutable and seemingly omnipotent System as a test subject. The downsides: All of this is insane and by any rational analysis he's gonna die. The upsides: Super powers, a cure for a physical disability that had limited him, and above all, so very much to learn (for as long as he can avoid dying). I am very much a beginner as an author, and any feedback or suggestions on how to improve would be deeply appreciated. Chapter releases should be daily for the first two weeks and sporadic after that as I use up my buffer. Please consider this work as a rough draft subject to revision and/or retcon. It is not only my first attempt at original story telling, but at world building and RPG style system design. The latter has been very difficult, even drawing on the brilliant work of many RPGs and LitRPGs for inspiration. Thank you to any willing to give a new story and a new writer a try!
