The night he was kicked out of the auction house, Jiang Shi bought a rusty copper coin for five yuan in the ghost market.
From then on, he can see the current price of everything and its value at a certain moment in the future.
A "fake" plum vase worth 30 yuan will be worth 27 million in seven days; a heirloom worth 300 million yuan, but its real price is only 85,000. Others rely on experience, and he can see the answer in advance.
