On the second day, the 79th auction house of Sui Xin Dharma Assembly, a special spice sale, has now reached the last ten lots. Ji Yuan and Zi Yu entered the room and sat in the last row
Yesterday Zhan Shuicheng wanted to buy some high-quality spices, and Ziyuan naturally did not dare to neglect it. For this reason, she even lowered her face and went to Ji Yuan again to ask for an invitation to the spice sale. She came to the scene to bid in person. When I went out while Zhan Shuicheng was sleeping, Ji Yuan sent people to watch the people in front of me, and they only came when they were at their worst.
Although some spices can be sold for sky-high prices, causing many monks to fight for their heads, but overall, this kind of thing is not popular. Although it is the most critical moment, there are not too many people in the venue, but the atmosphere is a bit... Tight
"There is a spice recipe in front, and there are more than seventy rounds of bidding. The atmosphere is heated up, but for this next one, I am afraid people have to take a breath."
Ji Yuan introduced the situation to Zi Yu and was very excited. Since Zhan Shuicheng, the first-class talisman master, moved into Yuanguang Pavilion, many people wanted to get together to make friends, but without exception they were rejected. Only he, although he did not see Zhan Shuicheng in person, invited her personal maid out, close to the water, nothing more than that
If the previous bidding was tepid as Ji Yuan had guessed, Ji Yuan took advantage of the situation and talked about the topic of Zhan Shuicheng: "As soon as Fairy Zhan arrived, Sanjiafang was looking for cats all over the city, with the intention of using This is the gift of the audience, Junior Sister Ziyu, tell me, are we here..."
This was a show of magnanimity. As expected, Zi Yu sneered and said, "If Uncle Zhan keeps cats when he sees them, wouldn't the palace become a cat nest? Although Uncle Zhan loves cats, most of them still have the appearance and spirit of cats. It is a combination of practice and fun, just playing in the world, but there is no such kind of insanity."
Is this really the case? Thinking about the way the one who was sleeping soundly and letting her take a bath yesterday, Zi Yu felt a little guilty and finally added: "They in Sanjiafang are looking for cats, maybe they want to get the talisman handmade by Uncle Zhan, like the Nine-Life Phantom Talisman." My uncle once traded cats for talismans, but that was a special case."
Ji Yuan repeatedly said yes, and then gave up the thought of giving the cat away. Just as he was thinking about how to follow the topic to explore Fairy Zhan's hobbies, he saw Ziyuan's beautiful eyebrows frown slightly, and then she spread her arms and followed the female nun. Looking at it with his eyes, he understood:
It turned out to be the Nine Smoke
Ji Yuan also just learned this person's name today. He also knew that the attendant he sent to stay at the auction house was a clever guy. Knowing that he was paying some attention to this person, he deliberately wrote down a list. , which contains the spices purchased by Jiuyan, as well as all the auction items that were unsuccessfully bid
The Feiyu Sect can settle down around the Fountain of Youth, and its disciples naturally have certain attainments in spices. Ji Yuan looked at it and made it clear what he was thinking: "It's really ordinary, both in terms of financial resources and ability. It's just that Bidding for some relatively common spices, the most valuable spice formulas don’t even have bids..."
After reading this information, the unhappiness in his heart completely dissipated. This man's cultivation is good, but he is really not very good at it. Otherwise, he wouldn't come to Beihuang to settle down, right? There is absolutely no point in being angry with such a person
He had an idea, and the previous round of bidding had ended. He moved on to the next lot, which is a piece of fine spices. No matter how rare the natural spices are, really fine spices will most likely have to go through human hands. Just process
The current Sea Rain fragrance was made by Lu Pei, one of the most famous perfumers in the East China Sea. It has a fishy smell of the sea. After being stimulated, it can self-condensate water vapor and fall like rain, hence the name and its uses. It is quite widespread and is the catalyst for many spices. It is a very popular category
But this was not what Ziyuan needed, so the two ignored it. However, Jiuyan quoted the price twice, but they were quickly passed by, and they stopped taking action
Ji Yuan looked at this scene and felt a little sympathetic... This is the ecology of casual cultivators, tsk
At this time, he saw someone approaching and talking to Jiuyan
In the auction house, there are many vacant seats. As long as there is an invitation or a pass sign, it doesn't matter where you sit. However, during the auction, those who temporarily change seats always have plans: "This fellow Taoist, some Are you interested in fine spices? ”
A very vulgar opening, only a glance at the charcoal head, nothing else
Li Shan had seen this kind of scene many times, and he persisted and said with a smile: "The things in this auction house have the name of Sui Xin Dharma Assembly, and coupled with the bidding and speculation, they are really too high. It's very difficult." It’s not cost-effective. If you are in a hurry and want to buy it, you might as well find another channel... I, Li Shan, may I ask my brother’s surname?”
The Hei Tantou didn't mean to pay attention at first, but just when he thought the deal couldn't be completed, the man blinked and turned around:
"You have something good on your hands? Where did it come from?"
Li Shan has been observing faces in recent years and has a keen mind. As long as this person is willing to communicate, he will be more sure of success. At that moment, he gritted his teeth and smiled, and the deep wrinkles on his forehead were revealed. : "How can all the ways in the world be as simple as in the auction house? To be honest, Brother Dao, I originally started my business in Sanjiafang, but once the Suixin Dharma Conference started, it was hard to do business."
He put on a slightly embarrassed look, and saw that the black charcoal head was actually a little moved: "Do you have Hai Yuxiang?"
"Yes, but it is not made by Master Lu Pei. The quality may be slightly inferior, but the price is also very different. We will not deliberately deceive you on this point"
Heitan Tou thought for a moment and saw that most of the auction items at the back were recipes and special spices that could fetch sky-high prices. He finally nodded: "You lead the way."
Li Shan was overjoyed and whispered: "Brother Taoist, please come with me"
After saying that, he stood up and led people out of the auction house through the side door. He walked east and west for about a quarter of an hour and stopped in front of a courtyard. This place was actually located in a downtown area, and people were coming and going outside. Entertaining guests here also makes people feel at ease
Taking advantage of knocking on the door, Li Shan passed the message in, and then said: "Brother Dao, please"
There were people waiting in the courtyard, but it was Li Shan’s immediate boss, named Zhao Zhu. He looked honest and honest, but had extraordinary scheming. When they met face to face, Zhao Zhu was slightly startled, and then smiled: "This Taoist priest Brother, may I ask Gao’s name?”
Heitan Tou finally responded: "Nine Smokes"
"Oh, it turns out to be Taoist Brother Jiuyan. Brother Taoist came to us to buy spices. You must have come to the right place..." Laughing, Zhao Zhu greeted the person inside
Just a quarter of an hour later, Jiuyan went out quite satisfied. He had already purchased Haiyuxiang and several other spices at a reasonable price
Zhao Zhu sent the person to the door with a smile. When he saw the person walking away without a trace, his face turned gloomy. When he saw Li Shan behind him, who was still in the mist, he kicked him in the stomach violently. With a snort, he fell down from the door and entered the hospital. He didn't stop until he hit the stone platform behind
"You idiot, I asked you to find a fat sheep, look what you found"
