Chapter 4013: Pill Fair
These pavilions and water pavilions are not only beautiful and refreshing, but also combine all kinds of entertainment venues, but after just half an hour, Lin Yi has passed through several erotic fields and casinos, these things that ordinary people are keen on, for powerful cultivators, it is also a rare pastime.
This kind of place, Lin Yi naturally has seen it, not to mention that he is not interested in these things at all with his mind, even if he has this kind of thought, it is impossible to consume it in a place where he is not familiar with life, it is waiting to be slaughtered.
In addition to the entertainment venues on the Far North Island itself, Lin Yi also saw many merchants exhibiting treasures in various pavilions.
As the Song steward said, this is the Four Islands Auction Fair, and the final auction is scheduled for three days later, and these three days are the time for the exhibition of treasures left for the chambers of commerce.
Gathering popularity in advance and attracting as many potential buyers as possible in order to fetch the highest possible price in the auction three days later is what Zhanbao is all about.
Before the auction began, the smoke of gunpowder had already filled, but for the Hong Chamber of Commerce, which knew nothing beforehand, these precious three days of time would inevitably be wasted, even if Hong Zhong could take remedial measures in time and want to deliver the goods from the Nakajima headquarters, it would take at least two or three days, and it would not be able to catch up at all.
Of course, these things have nothing to do with Lin Yi for the time being, even if he wants to help Hong Zhong, he is basically powerless, and the only thing he can do at the moment is to find his target lot.
Of the seven materials listed by the Tattered King for him, except for the mysterious water droplet, which has been purchased from the Hong Chamber of Commerce, the remaining six materials must be collected in this auction.
If it was just the usual North Island auction in the past, there might still be some omissions, but this time the momentum is so big, as long as you have the heart to look for it, there is still a great chance of collecting them all.
Sure enough. After Lin Yi walked around, he had already found four of the materials, which was still based on the fact that the exhibition had just begun, and many merchants had not yet taken out all the lots.
After a night of silence, Lin Yi went to find Hong Zhong in the early morning and found that this old man, who had always been calm and calm, had an unexpectedly ugly face, and a bloodshot appeared in his eyes. It looks like I haven't slept all night, and I've been working hard.
"Shopkeeper Hong, is the situation not optimistic?" Lin Yi asked, he came with Hong Zhong, he was a person on the same boat, plus his previous friendships, it was his duty to help if he needed help.
"Lin Shaoxia, morning. Hong Zhong barely squeezed out a smile on his face, and he didn't hide it from Lin Yi. Frankly admitted: "Yes, the old man just received a reply this morning, and our Hong Chamber of Commerce has been jointly dug and buried this time." ”
"How come?" Lin Yi couldn't help but be slightly stunned. Puzzled: "The Hong Chamber of Commerce has a big business, even if others want to join forces to target, it's not so easy, right?"
Hong Zhong shook his head and sighed: "That being said, we have now become the target of public criticism. Moreover, the other party has been planning for a long time, not only deliberately blocking the auction news from us, but even our material reserves have been consumed and purchased in advance. Including the Nakajima headquarters and the other three branches, there was a shortage of auction-level goods at the same time, and it was bought in batches a few days before, which was really unexpected. ”
Lin Yi was dumbfounded when he heard this, Rao is a pure layman like him, and he also knows that a business giant like the Hong Chamber of Commerce must attach great importance to cargo reserves.
Even if there is a shortage in a short period of time, there must be channels that can be quickly replenished, and it is difficult to make all of them, including the Nakajima headquarters and the four branches, have a severe shortage, and they are stuck at this critical point in time.
"In this way, that's really deliberate, but the other party is so bothered, the purpose should not be just this Four Islands Auction Expo, I'm afraid there will be more tricky tricks in the future. Lin Yi reminded him.
"That's true, the other party is menacing this time, the auction is just the beginning, once the table is too weak, and someone pinchs the handle, maybe our Hong Chamber of Commerce will really face an unprecedented crisis. Hong Zhong said worriedly.
The other party is a combination of many forces, and many may be in a wait-and-see state at first, but if the Hong Chamber of Commerce is too weak, and they think it is profitable, and finally swarm up, then it is really not far off.
On the contrary, this time in the Four Islands Auction Expo, if the Hong Chamber of Commerce has a way to survive the crisis and show a profound heritage, then these wait-and-see forces will automatically retreat, and the killing machine will be solved.
"Shopkeeper Hong, if you can prepare enough lots in a short period of time, will you be able to deal with this crisis?" Lin Yi asked suddenly and thoughtfully.
Hong Zhong nodded and said: "Yes, but in this level of auction event, the goods of the general level are not of enough grade at all, even if they are shipped over, they will only make people laugh, and the goods of sufficient grade will not be replenished in a short period of time, which is really helpless." ”
"So is an elixir of this level like the Superb Foundation Building Barrier Breaking Pill high enough?" Lin Yi asked again.
"Of course, the master of the foundation building period is the foundation and backbone of each party's forces, and the best foundation building barrier breaking pill is an unattainable treasure for them, and it is even more sought after than some divine weapons, for any party's forces, this can be regarded as a strategic-level pill, and it has a priceless store!" Hong Zhong nodded affirmatively.
Hearing this, the corners of Lin Yi's mouth curved slightly: "If that's the case, then it should be able to help a little bit, since they are all engaged in the Four Islands Auction Expo, then how about we are fortunate to have a superb pill fair?"
"The best pill fair?" Hong Zhong's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he hurriedly said, "Mo Feilin Shaoxia still has a lot of best pills on hand?"
"Nope. Lin Yi shook his head decisively, the two top-grade foundation building pills were given to Shangguan Lan'er, and the thirteen top-grade foundation building and obstacle breaking pills had all been sold to Hong Zhong, but he didn't have a single pill left.
"That'...... This best pill fair, where to start?" Hong Zhong couldn't help but be a little disappointed.
Lin Yi smiled: "Shopkeeper Hong, you already know that I am an alchemist, although I don't have it at hand for the time being, as long as there are enough elixir materials, I can naturally refine it." (To be continued......)
