The whole family is a big boss, but I am the wet nurse
Chapter 16 Auction
When Xuan Qing finished shouting a thousand taels, Wu Boming, who came not far away, was not to be outdone and said in a pretentious manner.
"We will pay 1,500 taels, and this thing will be given to my sister. What do you think? My sister is relatively young and is spoiled by her family. I hope you will forgive me." Wu Boming slowly walked towards Wu Lan next to the stall. , and gave Xuan Qing a polite greeting.
Wu Bo clearly and secretly insinuated that Xuan Qing's identity was just a wild girl that Xuan Batian had been living outside for many years, while Wu Lan had grown up under the endless pampering of the Wu family since she was a child.
After hearing Wu Boming's words, Xuan Qing wanted to kill him.
Didn't she check the almanac when she went out today? She encountered two bedbugs from the Wu family.
The most depressing thing is that most of the items sold at the auction are things used by cultivators, and the transactions are spiritual stones, so Xuan Batian gave her a lot of spiritual stones to squander, but she didn't expect that she would actually use some silver.
Just when she was in a dilemma and was about to see if the guards could crowdfund for her, a glimmer of hope appeared.
A two thousand tael silver note suddenly appeared in the old man's hand. No one saw how the bank note appeared, including the many practitioners at the stall.
A domineering and deep young voice sounded from behind everyone.
"Here are two thousand taels. This thing belongs to my sister. Get away from the Wu family."
Looking at Xuan Ye walking towards him, and hearing the domineering subwoofer, Xuan Qing's eyes immediately lit up with the starry eyes of a girl.
It’s great to have such a domineering brother!
When Wu Lan wanted to continue talking, Wu Boming immediately stopped her, his eyes full of warning.
"Since Young Master Xuan has come forward, we will give that thing to you. See you later." Wu Boming cupped his hands in the direction of Xuan Ye, pulled Wu Lan and turned around to leave.
If there was only Xuan Qing, he would have no worries at all, but facing Xuan Ye, he had no choice but to even feel a little timid. Except that Xuan Ye's cultivation level was higher than his, he could feel the murderous smell from Xuan Ye's body.
They had also performed Northern Alliance missions together. The man in front of him was simply cold-blooded and life-threatening. The lives of others were not life, and in his eyes, his own life was not life either. Being hostile to such a person is like being targeted by a vicious lone wolf, which makes people shudder.
The farce has ended, and the people around are starting to disperse.
When the Xuan Ye brother and sister were about to leave, the old man stopped them.
A broken bean was sold for a sky-high price of two thousand taels, which really made him feel uneasy. He always felt that he was cheating people. The old man poured out all the things in the bamboo basket he had brought to set up the stall, and asked Xuan Qing and the others to choose what they liked.
At first, Xuan Ye thought they were useless ordinary herbs and minerals and planned to discard them, but Xuan Qing took into account the old man's feelings and agreed to pick some.
As he was choosing, Xuan Qing stared at the pile of junk that looked like scraps of metal with gleaming eyes.
Among the weeds, she used the identification technique to see several herbs that were hard to buy. Among them, the two poisonous weeds, Nether Vine and Nether Vine, were particularly rare, and few people could find them. What pleased her the most was that she saw Jiuli Grass, which could improve the basic talents of Xuan Ye and Xuan Batian Spirit Beast.
Although many people only hear its name but never see its appearance, as long as they hear the name of Jiulicao, they will go crazy for it.
It is a kind of spiritual plant that can be refined to allow animals to awaken spiritual beasts and improve their foundation. No one knows where to find it. Only unofficial history records that someone once found it in the north and let its spiritual beast eat it by mistake. .
If you don't have identification skills, you will definitely not discover these herbs.
"Hahaha, old stall owner, I seem to have a lot to choose from. Can I give you some more money?" Xuan Qing said in embarrassment as the bamboo basket the old man poured out was missing more than half of it.
After the old man heard what she said, he just thought that the girl in front of him made so many choices to make him feel better, and he quickly waved his hand.
"No, no, no, little girl, the money you gave me is more than enough to buy everything on the stall. It's the old man who took advantage of you."
"Old stall owner, I have been very interested in refining medicine recently, so I may need these herbs. If you pick similar ones next time, you can sell them to the office in Heiwu City, Huaqing. I will take as much as you can. ." Xuan Qing suggested to the old man half-jokingly.
After hearing this, the old man immediately nodded in agreement. In the future, these collected herbs will have a stable place to sell, which is great news for him.
"Okay, it's settled. Remember to sell the herbs you pick to me." After saying that, Xuan Qing put away the herbs and left Xuan Ye in the direction of the auction.
"The little girl from Black Martial City must be too kind. She spent so much money and said she would sell the old man's broken grass in the future."
"Yes, yes, are herbal medicines so valuable now? How about we go pick some and sell them."
"..."
Listening to people's comments on the road, Xuan Qing gained a deeper understanding of the ignorance of ordinary people in this world.
Outside the Huaqing Auction.
When Xuan Ye and the others walked to the door, the steward of the auction had already greeted them and led them the way.
Maybe because I came earlier, there weren't many people inside.
The auction is divided into four floors. Most of the first and second floors are for standing, with only a few seats, prepared for ordinary cultivators and some small forces. The third floor has only ten huge rooms, all for major forces or small forces. It was prepared by the emperor's relatives and nobles; and the fourth floor was only opened once for the emperor's visit.
The steward took them directly to the exclusive room in Black Martial City on the third floor and then retreated.
As soon as she sat down, Xuan Qing immediately pulled Xuan Ye with a smile and blinked her eyes to ask if it was convenient to talk here. After receiving Xuan Ye's affirmation, she started to show off to Xuan Ye what she had just gained.
"Brother, we made a lot of money just now. Fortunately you arrived in time, otherwise I would have had to snatch it and run away."
"What did you just buy?" Xuan Ye asked, looking at Xuan Qing who was talking eloquently.
"It's a dried seed. I can't tell what it's used for. Cuscuta guided me to buy it. I think it will be useful and I will get it at all costs. But I also want to thank the two brothers and sisters. How about it?" The stall owner won’t take out his treasures either.”
As he talked, Xuan Qing turned the topic to the herbs he got later.
"Guess what I found in that pile of herbs? I found Jiulicao, and you and your father's spiritual beasts will hopefully improve their talents."
When he heard Jiulicao, Xuan Ye's eyes lit up.
He had heard of this herb, but it was too rare and people only regarded it as a legend. Now that Xuan Qing said that she got it, how could he not be happy?
He didn't doubt his sister's words, but he was curious about how his sister knew so many plants. She could even identify the Jiuli grass that no one in the world had ever seen.
But who doesn’t have some secrets of their own?
While the two were talking, more and more people entered the venue unknowingly, and the auction was about to begin...
