Chapter Seventy-Nine: People Are Stupid and Have a Lot of Money
Since the founding of Taoism, its main cultivation system has been the Taoist system.
Taoism refers to the age of cultivation and the depth of cultivation since entering the Tao.
Generally speaking, it is said that this Taoist friend has practiced the Tao for ten years, which means that he has cultivated the Tao for ten years since he entered the Tao. Twenty years of Taoism is the Tao that has been cultivated for twenty years.
On the way to Taoist cultivation, there is a great calamity of cultivation, which is called the Hundred Years Tribulation. It shows that a Taoist cultivator has broken through a hundred years.
When the Taoist cultivator reaches the hundred-year tribulation, there will be an insurmountable heavenly tribulation gap. If you cross it, you will be a generation of Taoist sects, and if you can't cross it, you will die.
The Xuanji of the Quanzhen Sect is to reach a hundred years of Taoism, and survive the hundred years of catastrophe safely, becoming a generation of Taoist sects.
Therefore, Xuanjizi's status in Taoism is naturally self-evident. It is not an exaggeration to say that he now represents the whole of Taoism.
If you want to improve yourself, in addition to natural growth over time. Another way is to absorb the treasures of heaven and earth.
A 100-year-old Ganoderma lucidum, if fully absorbed, can improve the path for one year. A hundred-year-old ginseng can also improve a year's Taoism.
Generally speaking, a hundred years of heaven and earth treasures can improve the Tao for about a year.
And the thousand-year-old ones are very few. Millennial Ganoderma lucidum, thousand-year-old ginseng, almost none of these things exist. Unless it is absorbing the essence of the sun and the moon.
Therefore, the thousand-year-old treasure of heaven and earth is even rarer than the lintoe flower.
Of course, for the Daomen, only the Lintoe Flower is the real holy product. One toe can improve the path for ten years. It is equivalent to ten years less cultivation.
The three toes in front of him can make Zhang Fan improve his Taoism for thirty years.
Don't look at Zhang Fan who is less than twenty now, in fact, he is also a Taoist sect who has survived a hundred years of tribulation.
That's why when he talked to his junior brother Shi Buyi before, he would say that the mystery of the hundred-year-old Taoism was not to be feared.
Zhang Fan has been in the Tao for more than ten years because he absorbed the nine lintoes opened by his ancestor Zhang Daoling, and because he has cultivated the Tao since he was a child.
Therefore, when he completely absorbed the Nine Lintoes, his Taoism reached a hundred years of tribulation.
Zhang Fan walked out of the mountains and came to the capital after the Zhang family's ancestral land survived a hundred years of tribulation. Now he is a genuine Taoist sect.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that he was the youngest Dao Sect in history. After all, his opportunities are not accessible to anyone.
Now, Zhang Fan, who is already a Great Dao Sect, has once again obtained a Lintoe Flower, and after absorbing it, Dao Xing will go to the next level.
For Zhang Fan, spending 16 million to buy this lintoe flower is simply a big profit. Not to mention 16 million, even 160 million Zhang Fan will desperately buy it.
The lintoe flower is a treasure that cannot be found.
After Master Wu lost the Lintoe Flower, his heart ached a little.
But for him, the toe flower is worth 10 million. Everyone's values are different.
For a Taoist cultivator like him who is more than half a hundred years old, the level of Taoism is no longer important. Now that he is rich and powerful, there is no need to pay too much money to compete for the level of cultivation.
So even if he misses it now, it's just heartache, and he won't regret it.
But for Su Bingtian, it's not that simple.
"Master Wu, since this kid is so ignorant of the rules, watch me vent my evil anger for you. "Su Bingtian was already prepared.
You must know that Zhang Fan's piece of imperial green is still in his hands.
After Su Bingtian explained, the auction hall outside finally ushered in the last lot.
"Guys, let's take a look at the last lot, a jadeite rough that has just been opened. ”
The master of ceremonies' words reached the second floor, and the Yang family's eyes immediately widened, and he exclaimed: "Master, it's our turn, it's our turn, this time we will definitely be able to fetch a big price." ”
The Yang family finally opened a piece of imperial green worth tens of millions, and naturally looked more excited.
However, Zhang Fan became calm again. For him, a lintoe flower can be compared to countless jade rough stones. It's a big profit today.
As the display table slowly rose, Zhang Fan's piece of jade rough stone slowly rose to the table.
"Distinguished guests, let's move on to the final auction. ”
"This rough stone was produced in the old pit in Myanmar, and now there are three skylights. Identified by several masters in our jewelry shop, this is a piece of imperial green with a nice texture. “
"Because it is a rough stone, we don't know the size of the imperial green inside, so after the appraisal of several masters, our auction house gave a conservative starting price, three million. Now, the auction begins. ”
When the master of ceremonies knocked down the gavel, the Yang family was instantly dumbfounded.
"What's the starting price of only three million?"
The imperial green, which is worth 10 million, has a starting price of only 3 million.
"Master, we've been cheated by that old thing. The Yang family general said angrily.
"Well, I see. Zhang Fan unexpectedly looked very calm.
"Damn, no, I'm going to settle accounts with that old thing. The Yang family general said through gritted teeth.
But Zhang Fan on the side stopped him.
"Don't worry, isn't three million the starting price? ”
"Master, you don't have any hope for this starting price, right?" The Yang family was speechless, did this master of his really not understand or fake it?
The starting price is 3 million, and the maximum transaction price is around 5 million.
They bought 10 million imperial green, but only bought 5 million, which is a big pit.
Su Bingtian, on the other side, said with a sneer: "The young man fights with me, but it's still tender! The auction price of a rough stone is not comparable to that of a finished product." ”
The reason why Su Bingtian wanted to auction the rough stone, to put it bluntly, this auction has also become a gambling stone.
After all, Zhang Fan's stone only opened three skylights, and no one knew how big the jade inside was.
However, the connoisseurs all understand that the three skylights opened by Zhang Fan are at the head, front, and side. Emeralds can be seen in all three areas.
It's like peeling a grapefruit, some of them have a very thick skin, and if you don't peel the skin, you never know how big the grapefruit is inside.
However, if you make three cuts on the surface of the grapefruit peel, you can basically know the size of the grapefruit.
In the opinion of Su Bingtian, Zhang Fan's piece of imperial green is as big as a fist, and it is worth tens of millions.
However, this is a rough auction, and the starting price is so low.
Sure enough, as soon as they saw the rough stone, many buyers also became cautious, and one by one they were all added by 100,000 yuan, and in the end, the price was increased to 4 million, and the increase was no longer obvious.
Four million is the limit price that these buyers can afford.
"Hahahaha, you see the Chinese are so stupid, just a flower was sold for sixteen million, and now a stone they want to sell for another four million. ”
"Sure enough, people are stupid and have a lot of money. ”
