Chapter 66: The Inner Building
The shopkeeper took Ye Bai into the back hall, through a tactful and winding corridor, and after a while, entering a room, Ye Bai showed a hint of doubt, the room was empty, but only a few feet big.
The shopkeeper smiled slightly, pressed lightly on the left wall, and with a "click", the ground suddenly shook, and a step leading to the ground was revealed.
The shopkeeper made a gesture of invitation, and then walked down first.
Ye Bai hesitated for a moment, then seemed to remember something, smiled, and followed into it.
As a trading house spanning seven or eight large states, how could Jubaolou do murder and extort goods for the sake of his hundreds of acres of land.
The tunnel is not wide, but it is enough for two people to walk side by side, the ground is flat, paved with a meter square of bluestone, and there is a pearl inlaid at intervals on both sides, hazy and clear.
The tunnel was not long, and there was a faint noise in front of him, but it was only a few breaths, and then suddenly he entered a hall.
The hall is dozens of zhang large, the lights are brilliant, and the thick pillars support the buildings above, Ye Bai estimated, if it is converted to the area of the earth is two or three thousand square meters, it is equivalent to a small underground parking lot.
Although the area is very large, the antiques, calligraphy and paintings, swords, bows and crossbows, and genius treasures inside are piled up full, at least tens of thousands of collectibles, with a wide variety of different sizes.
The only thing that was a little strange was that there were several pieces of each thing, almost identical, and Ye Bai even found that there was a huge booth in the very center, which was extremely luxurious, and hundreds of stones the size of pale yellow pebbles were neatly placed on it.
"Childe, this is the inner building of my treasure building. The shopkeeper said with a smile, seeing Ye Bai looking at the center of the hall, he couldn't help but explain: "Childe really has a vision, this is the treasure of the town store in the inner building of my treasure building, a yellow-level exercise inheritance stone, a total of three hundred and sixty-five pieces, one is true, three hundred and sixty-four pieces are false, thirty thousand taels of one, Childe can try his luck, if the real one accidentally gets the real one, then ......"
Yellow-level Exercise Inheritance Stone!
Ye Bai was shocked, his heart was shocked, this is too terrifying, the Qingyu Body Forging Technique is just a white-level top-grade exercise, it has been metamorphosed to this point, Ye Xingdao has a tendency to win the first person in Youzhou Martial Arts with it, so how strong should the yellow-level exercise be?
At this time, someone walked towards them, it was a middle-aged man with a white face, Ye Bai withdrew his gaze that fell on the inheritance stone and looked at the middle-aged man.
The shopkeeper said to Ye Bai: "This is Deacon Liu from the inner building, son, what do you need to buy, just look for him." ”
At this time, Deacon Liu had already arrived, and the shopkeeper took a slight step forward to the side, and introduced: "Old Liu, this son is a distinguished guest, and his shot is extraordinary, our outer building is shabby, and there is nothing that the son looks at, because I brought it to you, this son wants to buy some Huoyang Jade Xuanbing Liquid and Dry Thunder Qingji Wood, you have to entertain well, and you must not slack off." ”
Although Deacon Liu had a smile on his face when he came, this was just a professional habit, in fact, he didn't care in his heart, a young man who looked fourteen or fifteen years old, how much financial resources could he have, secretly blamed the shopkeeper for wasting time, and actually brought it here, but suddenly heard the shopkeeper's words, and suddenly showed a sincere smile on his face, hugged his fists and said: "Haha, I said why my left eyelid has been beating today, it turns out that there is a distinguished guest coming, this son, you have come to the right place with me, as long as you want, there is nothing I don't have here." ”
With a smile on his face and a sincere tone, Ye Bai didn't care, and laughed lightly, but he scolded in his heart, the shopkeeper and the surnamed Liu sang and harmonized, thinking that he couldn't hear it, and on the surface he raised his identity, but in fact, didn't he say that he was stupid?
If he is really just a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy who is not deeply involved in the world, he may be dizzy when he is praised like this, but unfortunately, he is not, the two lives add up to thirty-five or sixteen years old, how can he simply believe that others are just compliments?
"Let's take a look at the goods first. ”
Ye Bai said noncommittally.
Deacon Liu and the shopkeeper glanced at each other, nodded, and said, "Childe, please, it just so happens that there are a few people who are buying Huoyang Jade now, so let's go and have a look first." ”
Deacon Liu took the lead and walked forward, followed by Ye Bai.
The hall is huge, and there are all kinds of things on the booths, whether they are genius treasures, or the inheritance of exercises, there are so many kinds that they are indeed extremely complete.
There is a servant who looks like a subordinate waiting next to each booth, Ye Bai naturally understands that this is for fear that someone will not follow the rules, although the people who come are generally people with identity and financial resources, but they are not afraid that such a thing will really happen.
In addition to these subordinates, there are no less than dozens of people coming and going in the hall at this time, judging from their clothing and appearance, all of them are extremely cultivated and valuable people, and there is usually a person who is dressed the same as Deacon Liu next to them, these are obviously the guests who came to buy things.
Ye Bai followed Deacon Liu, turned around a few high collection shelves, and after a while, four or five people suddenly appeared in front of him, gathered in front of a booth, whispering continuously, constantly examining the ten fiery red stones in a row on the booth.
The ten stones, which are exactly the same in appearance, have no difference in size and shape, and have obviously been all processed, and even in terms of color, under the slightly yellowish light of the ground, the difference is almost indiscernible.
Seeing this scene, Ye Bai suddenly realized in his heart why this inner building was set up underground, just to make people unable to see clearly.
scolded again that there was no business or treachery, Ye Bai suddenly shook his body, and there was a hint of surprise on his face, but he quickly covered it up.
He stepped out and strode forward.
And Deacon Liu next to him also hurriedly followed, and said at the same time: "Childe, this is Huoyang Jade, in ten copies, one of which is true, nine of which is false, three thousand taels a piece, Tong Su is not deceived, and the truth or falsehood is all judged by himself." ”
But Ye Bai didn't seem to hear his voice, and walked forward quickly, completely ignoring him.
Deacon Liu and the shopkeeper looked at each other and smiled, sure enough, it was a hairy boy, and when he saw what he wanted, he couldn't wait, so he dared to come to the inner building of their treasure building to pick up the leak, he simply didn't know how to write the dead word.
Both of them were smiling all over their faces, as if they had seen a pile of money already loaded into their waists, and they followed closely with great excitement.
What they didn't see was that Ye Bai, who was striding forward in front of them, showed a strange look on his face, as if he couldn't suppress his excitement, and as if he wanted to look up to the sky and laugh happily.
Except for himself, what no one knew was that in his dantian, the black books were hanging high in the air like a scorching sun, drying up the earth, in a thick crack, both sides of the crack were trembling at this time, and the black slag was constantly falling, as if something was vibrating violently in the depths of the crack.
ps: Thank you Ke Yunwai for your reward and full praise, and thank you to many unknown book friends who silently support you.
