The Star Chamber of Commerce is the largest and most powerful chamber of commerce in the entire Great Yan Dynasty, and its branches are almost all over the cities of the Great Yan Dynasty, and Yunyang City is naturally no exception.

Soon, several people came to the door of the Star Chamber of Commerce.

"Is this the Star Chamber of Commerce?" Qin Zhao looked at the tall building in front of him and asked, "Why are there so many people?"

Qin Zhao can understand that there are many customers of the Xingchen Chamber of Commerce, but at this time, it is not an exaggeration to say that the crowd at the door of the Xingchen Chamber of Commerce is crowded, there can't be so many people coming to buy things every day, right?

"The Star Chamber of Commerce holds an auction on the last day of every month to auction off some of the good things that have been saved in a month, and this time people are coming for the auction. Lu Ze explained to Qin Zhao.

"There is also an auction in this place?" Qin Zhao didn't know much about this Star Chamber of Commerce.

"Of course, you see that this Star Chamber of Commerce is divided into three floors, the first floor is a place to buy things normally, the second floor is a place to sell things, you can go to the second floor if you sell pills, and the third floor is the auction venue, in addition to the regular auction once a month There are also large-scale auctions held from time to time, there are a lot of good things. ”

"I see. Qin Zhao nodded and understood, but he was not interested in this auction or anything, not to mention that there was nothing he could like, the most important thing was that he had no money, and the money he used to sell the elixir would be used to exchange for the elixir.

Chickens lay eggs and eggs give birth to chickens, and so on, this is the right way to make money, and Qin Zhao also has other ways to make a lot of money, but it is not safe, and now he has no strength Qin Zhao thinks it is better to be safe, anyway, he is not in a hurry.

A few people walked inside, but after walking a few steps, they heard a little Lori's voice not far away: "Brother Zhou Wu, can I go buy that sugar gourd to eat?"

Qin Zhao paused, and the figure of a little girl suddenly appeared in his mind, and the voice of this "brother" had almost melted into his soul, even if he hadn't heard it for nearly a hundred years, there was no strangeness at all.

"Little ......" Qin Zhao quickly turned around, and sure enough, he saw a little girl about ten years old standing on the side of the street, next to a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy and a few old men.

At this time, the girl pointed to a vendor selling sugar gourds on the street, but her eyes looked at the young man, with some longing and some fear in her eyes.

"Sure enough, it's ......," Qin Zhao muttered to himself in a distracted manner.

This little Lori is Qin Zhao's sister, her own sister, called Qin Xiaoxiao, Qin Zhao has always called him "Xiaoxiao".

The young man and a few old men next to him were the young master and several elders of the Zhou family, who probably also came to participate in the auction.

"What to eat, you are the most troublesome! Hurry in!" The impatient voice of the young man named Zhou Wu pulled Qin Zhao back to reality.

Zhou Qingyan's grandfather, that is, the patriarch of the Zhou family, has a total of two sons. And this young man named Zhou Wu is the son of Zhou Qingyan's uncle, and he is also the eldest son of the Zhou family, and he is also Zhou Qingyan's brother.

"Oh......" Qin Xiaoxiao replied aggrievedly, not daring to speak again.

Qin Zhao's face changed slightly, and he walked over directly.

"Hey, Qin Zhao, such a sister......" Zhou Qingyan wanted to hold Qin Zhao, but she was still a step slower, so she had to follow quickly: "Why do you still value her so much......

"What's the situation?" Lu Ze next to him touched his head, a little unintelligible: "Is that Qin Zhao's sister?"

Originally, Qin Zhao's face was still a little angry, but when he walked in front of Qin Xiaoxiao, his face softened, and his hundred-year-old thoughts turned into a gentle voice: "Little ......"

Qin Xiaoxiao was stunned when he saw Qin Zhao, but he immediately turned his face away, and instead said to Zhou Wu: "Brother Zhou Wu, let's hurry in!"

"Isn't this Qin Zhao, a top student of Tiens Academy, how come he has time to run out?" Zhou Wu also looked at Qin Zhao, with a mocking look on his face: "And my sister Qingyan, how did you two get together?"

Zhou Qingyan has long been accustomed to this kind of ridicule in the past two years, and her face has not changed, but she just looked at Qin Zhao with some worry.

Qin Zhao didn't care about Zhou Wu's ridicule anymore, he still looked at Qin Xiaoxiao and said, "Xiaoxiao, I'll take you to sell sugar gourds to eat." ”

"Don't, who is rare about your sugar gourd!" Qin Xiaoxiao's little face was full of disgust, and he gently tugged at Zhou Wu's clothes and urged: "Brother Zhou Wu, let's go in, don't pay attention to him." ”

"Haha, do you hear that, your sister doesn't want to pay attention to you!" Zhou Wu said proudly: "You waste, you better go back to cultivation, otherwise your sister won't bother to take care of you!"

Zhou Wu didn't pay attention to Qin Zhao anymore, and walked into the Xingchen Chamber of Commerce by himself, he didn't want to waste time for these two wastes, bullying people like Qin Zhao was like kicking a wild dog on the road, not to mention that he had no sense of accomplishment but dirty shoes.

"Brother Zhou Wu, wait for me ......" Qin Xiaoxiao hurriedly followed.

Qin Zhao ...... Are you alright......" Lu Ze next to him asked cautiously, he probably understood what was going on now.

Qin Zhao closed his eyes and breathed a long sigh of relief, ignoring the strange eyes around him, and said indifferently: "It's okay, let's go in." ”

Lu Ze and Zhou Qingyan glanced at each other, Qin Zhao obviously didn't look like he was fine, but the two of them didn't have much to say, and the three of them walked in silently.

Qin Zhao ...... It turned out that he was actually that 'waste' Qin Zhao...... But at this age, it's already a ...... It may even be a second-grade alchemist, why is it called a waste?" a young girl not far away looked at Qin Zhao's back and muttered to herself.

"Minghe, what are you looking at?" an old man next to the girl asked.

"Third Elder, do you remember the second-grade alchemist I told you about in the morning?" This girl is none other than Nangong Minghe, she was supposed to go to Qingxuan City today, but because of this auction, she was sent out by the family again.

"Could it be that you're talking about him?" The third elder frowned: "Minghe, I know you don't want to go to Qingxuan City, but it's a matter of the fate of Nangong Yixi, and you can't help it! The family has raised you for so many years, you should also do something for the family." "He also had a rough look at the matter between Qin Zhao and Zhou Wu before, how could he be a second-grade alchemist according to Qin Zhao's appearance? The third elder's first reaction was that Nangong Minghe was lying to him.

"But ......" Nangong Minghe opened his mouth to explain, but the words turned around in his mouth, and finally reluctantly turned into one word: "Yes." ”

Only then did the Third Elder nod with satisfaction.

Several of them also entered the Star Chamber of Commerce behind Qin Zhao.

And Qin Zhao's face didn't move, but there was endless anger churning in his heart.

"It's okay, how can it be okay!" Qin Zhao roared in his heart.

But behind the anger is a deep sense of powerlessness, it is his own sister, what can he do?

In fact, when they were in the Qin family before, the relationship between the brother and sister was still very good, Qin Xiaoxiao followed Qin Zhao all day long, and the elder brother was long and the elder brother was short. Moreover, when he was in the Qin family, Qin Zhao was already considered a "waste who can't cultivate", but Qin Xiaoxiao didn't show anything unusual, and he was still tired of being with Qin Zhao all day long.

Later, the Qin family was destroyed, Qin Zhao and Qin Xiaoxiao were entrusted to the Zhou family, and a waste with a younger sister suffered from the eyes of the Zhou family, that is, those people who Qin Xiaoxiao gradually kept a distance from Qin Zhao and began to get close to the Zhou family.

Qin Zhao was originally still holding a fluke mentality, maybe Qin Xiaoxiao had become different from his previous life, but reality gave him a ruthless blow, and Qin Xiaoxiao still looked down on him like everyone else.

Qin Zhao in his previous life spent nearly a hundred years in loneliness after leaving the Zhou family, with no relatives, no partner, and no brothers......

So in this life, he attaches great importance to family affection and cares about Qin Xiaoxiao, but he didn't expect this to be the case......

Qin Zhao also thought about telling Qin Xiaoxiao his identity as an alchemist in the future, so that he would not be looked down upon, but what was the point of such "family affection"?

Give up, reluctant, but her appearance is really chilling, and there is nothing she can do about such a sister Qin Zhao.

After calming down his mood, Qin Zhao no longer thought about these troublesome things, and now he thought about it too much except to ask for troubles, and the boat was naturally straight to the bridge.

At the corner of the second floor, Qin Zhao and the three of them did not go up to the third floor like most people, but turned around and entered the second floor directly.

"Are you selling something?" asked a coolly dressed girl at the entrance to the second floor, smiling at the trio.

"Hmm. Qin Zhao nodded coldly: "Sell pills." ”

"A few people inside, please. The girl led the way, and the backs of the three disappeared around the corner.

This scene fell into the eyes of Nangong Minghe behind him.

"He's not here for the auction...... It's here to sell things...... That's right, sell things!" Nangong Minghe's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said to a man in black next to him: "You follow along, see what they sell, if it's a pill, buy them all, especially Qingfeng Dan!"

"Yes, miss!" replied the man.

The third elder next to him shook his head helplessly: "It seems that you are still unwilling. ”

Nangong Minghe didn't speak, but a look of expectation appeared in his eyes.
