Chapter 17 The Auction and the "Encounter"
Heaven Dou City Grand Auction House.
Ye Jiu and Zhu Zhuqing each took a mask at the door to hide their true faces.
It is common sense to hide identities at auctions, so it is not uncommon to see people wearing various masks.The two also entered the auction together with the crowd.
Invitations to the auction house are generally only sent to the hands of the major forces before the auction starts, and of course they can also be bought directly with gold soul coins.Of course, Ye Jiu didn't have such a channel, and he didn't have the spare money to buy invitations. He used another method.
The auction house will give you an invitation card for the owner of the lot, and Ye Jiu only got the invitation card after sending in three Bone Tempering Pills.
Naturally, Ye Jiu participated in the auction not because he wanted something, but simply because he had no money.
Living in Wangcheng is not easy.The seven prepared a lot of things when they left the sect, but they didn't prepare many gold soul coins.
It has been a long time in the Huangzong, and they are used to living a self-sufficient life. After they came out, everyone ignored the question of how high the consumption level of Tiandou City is.
Although he can receive subsidies from the Spirit Hall, Ye Jiu forgot that the subsidies from the Spirit Hall are only given to soul masters before the fortieth level.So Ye Jiu and Yang Beiming couldn't even get the money.
Only relying on the subsidies from the other five people, that little money won't last long in Tiandou City.Moreover, Xuanju Baidou and Zhang Buyi have almost made a breakthrough, and by that time everyone's financial situation will be even worse.
You can't delay the cultivation of the three of them just because of three hundred gold coins!Next, various expenses in Tiandou City cannot be saved, and various resources for cultivation cannot be delayed.
Then we must find a way to get money as soon as possible or even a way to make long-term profits.
That's why Zhang Buyi came up with the idea of auctioning off the pills that everyone carried.
Not only can it make money to solve urgent needs, but it may also solve the problem of channeling people's cultivation resources.
After all, a place like the auction house will gather all kinds of people, and there are many big figures who usually don't appear in front of people.
Originally Zhang Buyi and Ye Jiu came here together.But before leaving, Jiu Miao pushed Zhu Zhuqing over for some reason.Under the threat of Jiu Miao's eyes, Zhang Buyi said that he was suddenly inconvenient to go out.
Although Jiu Miao has just transformed into form, Ye Jiu can't compare to her in terms of temperament.Therefore, he quickly established a majesty among the disciples of Huangzong.
Although she is the sixth junior sister in name, she has faintly become the eldest sister of everyone.Even Zhang Buyi dared not ignore her opinion.
Jiu Miao's reason was that as a nobleman, Zhu Zhuqing was more familiar with the situation of the auction house, so Zhu Zhuqing was asked to come with Ye Jiu.
She directly ignored the fact that Zhu Zhuqing hadn't been to the auction house much.
Ye Jiu didn't know what Jiu Miao was doing, but the auction was about to start, so he had to take Zhu Zhuqing with him.
The big auction house in Tiandou City can be described as resplendent and magnificent, with golden light shining everywhere.Ye Jiu, who was poor at this time, wished he could directly rob.
But thinking that if he really did that, the sect probably wouldn't make a move even if he was beaten to death.The idea was then decisively abandoned.
The owner of the lot gets an invitation one step above the one paid for, so the two have a separate compartment.Although it is not comparable to the most advanced private rooms, there are also a lot of wine, food and fruit for people to enjoy.
Ye Jiu sat on the seat, and the vision in the cubicle was naturally not as good as the private room above his head, but he could still see the auction stage and half of the auction house clearly.
Picking up an unknown fruit on the table, Ye Jiu took a bite and said, "The auction can be regarded as a place where classic plots take place, but we're only here to make money today. I hope there will be no accidents."
Zhu Zhuqing sat on the side and said: "I heard that there is a Contra in charge of this auction house, so there shouldn't be any accidents."
Ye Jiu shook his head, Zhu Zhuqing still couldn't understand what he meant.Where is the question of whether there is a Contra, the auction house in the novel... I understand everything.
The auction started soon, and a well-dressed auctioneer stepped up to the high platform and gave an opening speech.
Soon, a group of guards escorted the first lot onto the auction stage and displayed it to all customers.
Ye Jiu yawned, the items that were brought out at the beginning of the auction were not high-quality goods.Of course, Ye Jiu didn't have the spare money to spend on these so-called works of art.
Another painting by an unknown master was photographed by some nobleman, and the next thing that was put on the stage can make people interested.
"Soul guide, it's interesting!" Ye Jiu touched his chin and said.
In this era, soul tools are not as popular as after the collision between the Douluo Continent and the Sun Moon Continent in the future.
Due to the lack of rare metal raw materials and the loss of production technology, there are very few soul guides in the Douluo Continent.There are very few powerful ones.
On the stage is a third-level soul guide sword, which can increase the attack power of the third-ring soul master by [-]%.It's more or less a masterpiece.
Of course Ye Jiu wasn't interested, but that didn't mean the others weren't interested.The price of the Soul Guidance Sword was raised rapidly, and there were fewer and fewer bidders.
After all, it is only a third-level soul guide suitable for the soul master, and the price is not too high.In the end, it was bought by a big shot in the private room at the price of seven thousand gold soul coins.
After that, several items suitable for soul masters were sold one after another, such as inner armor made of high-grade soul beast fur, and weapons made by Master Geng Xincheng.Then a few Tiancaidibao plants were sold, and finally it was Ye Jiu's Bone Tempering Pill.
The auctioneer said to everyone: "Our appraiser is seeing the next lot for the first time, but the reputation of Tiandou Grand Auction guarantees that its effect is absolutely true.
Please see, the elixir quenching bone pill.As long as you eat one pill, you can increase your bone strength by nearly [-]%. After you eat the second pill, the effect will be weakened due to drug resistance, but there is also a [-]% effect. It will not be completely ineffective until you eat three pills.
The most important thing is that this elixir has no side effects, especially suitable for young soul masters to strengthen their physique.A bottle of three Bone Tempering Pills has a starting price of [-] gold soul coins. Please bid! "
"I'll offer [-] gold soul coins!"
"two thousand!"
"I'll give you three thousand!"
……
The price of Bone Tempering Pill rose rapidly, and Ye Jiu also showed a relieved smile.
Zhu Zhuqing couldn't help saying: "Although I've thought of it a long time ago, the elixir of Pavilion Master Furukawa is really popular!"
Ye Jiudao: "Where is this? It's just the beginning, and the supply of things that can strengthen the physique on the mainland has always been in short supply. There is even a blank in the field of pills. It is not uncommon for rare things to be expensive."
Ye Jiu is right, for some reason, the application of medicine in such a practice world is really backward.
Not to mention refining pills like Furukawa, there are not many people who can thoroughly research existing medicines.
Only those big forces with sufficient inheritance will keep a few prescriptions.Of course, in Furukawa's view, these prescriptions are just crude things that are not on the table.
So the elixir that Ye Jiu took out can be said to be a rare and good thing.Only those natural treasures and even fairy herbs that have been aged can be compared.
Of course, if the latter is handed over to Furukawa, it would not be uncommon to practice a more effective elixir.
The price of Bone Tempering Pill has gradually reached a level that ordinary people can't imagine.
"Twelve thousand gold soul coins!" A man's voice came from the private room.
As expected of a big shot, even the private room has a special logo.
The sign of the seven-story pagoda indicated that the owner of the private room was from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.In terms of financial resources, even the royal family of the Heaven Dou Empire may not be able to compare with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
Being so rich is no joke, those who wanted to bid couldn't help but hesitate.
Ye Jiu understands that the value of the bone quenching pill is roughly worth this price, and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is not considered to have lowered the price.
Just then, someone knocked on the compartment door.
Ye Jiu frowned, but still said, "Come in!"
A middle-aged man opened the door and came in and said, "You two, my master invites you to sit up there."
Ye Jiu leaned on the chair and asked, "Who is your master?"
The middle-aged man pointed to the private room of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and said, "My master is waiting for the two of you there."
"Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School!" Ye Jiu smiled and said, "What if I don't want to go?"
The middle-aged man's expression remained unchanged and he said: "If you two don't want to go, just pretend you haven't been here. My master just wants to make friends with you two. He won't force you two to do anything."
Ye Jiu stroked his chin and said, "That's it! Since the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile School invited me, it would be too shameful not to go, so let's go!"
Saying that, Ye Jiu got up, and followed the middle-aged man with Zhu Zhuqing.
The three of them came outside the private room, the middle-aged man knocked on the door and said "You are welcome", opened the door but he didn't intend to go in.
After the two entered, the middle-aged man closed the door, leaving room for the people in the room and Ye Jiu Zhu Zhuqing.
The person in the room didn't wear a mask like Ye Jiu, he was an elegant middle-aged man, dressed in simple but decent clothes, exuding a noble and easy-going temperament.
Ye Jiu didn't hide anything, and directly took off his mask and said, "Only the suzerain of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile School can have the air of your Excellency. This junior has met Sect Master Ning."
Ning Fengzhi smiled and said: "You two are welcome, Ning also ran into two of you by chance today, and I invited you here because I wanted to make friends."
"Meet...by chance?" Ye Jiu glanced at Ning Fengzhi with a half-smile.Although there is such a possibility, Ye Jiucai did not believe that meeting Ning Fengzhi here was really a chance encounter.
It would not be difficult for Ning Fengzhi to create this encounter.
Ye Jiu didn't mean to expose, but just said: "Sect Master Ning didn't want to come here purely to see us, just speak up if you have any advice!"
Ning Fengzhi picked up the jade bottle on the table, it was the Bone Tempering Pill that Ye Jiu brought for auction.
Just as Ye Jiu expected, Ning Fengzhi came here on purpose when he learned that Ye Jiu was coming to the auction house.The Bone Tempering Pill was an unexpected surprise.
"Then I'll just tell you the truth. I don't know if there are any similar pills out there. If there is, I would like to discuss with you whether we can cooperate further."
Ye Jiu smiled and said, "Of course, I don't know about bone tempering pills. There are also pills with better effects. But it depends on how much Sect Master Ning is willing to pay."
Next, the two parties will start arguing based on the elixir transaction.
Originally, Zhang Buyi was assigned to this job, but Zhang Buyi didn't come because of "temporary errands".But fortunately, before departure, Zhang Buyi had mentioned the approximate resources they needed.
And Ning Fengzhi didn't bargain too much, Ye Jiu's conditions were not too much, so he agreed to them one by one.
Zhu Zhuqing had never seen such a bargain, where one person bid and the other took it all.
In this way, the host and guest had a good time, and after discussing all the deals, Ye Jiu just said goodbye and left.
"That's right! I still have a piece of news to give to Miss Zhu!" Ning Fengzhi said before parting.
