Chapter Ninety-Four: The Auction
One month before the start of the auction.
Shangyang City was lively, and scattered cultivators, family monks, and sect monks from all over the world gathered here as if they had made an appointment.
Under the good reputation of Shangyang City Auction for many years.
The other monks were happy to put their idle treasures up for auction in exchange for the resources they needed.
But it just so happened that at that time, Yu Xian was still nested in the Zhao family's library and didn't care about the disturbances of the outside world.
By the time he had his hands free, the auction was almost underway.
Shangyangfang City.
Shangyang Auction House, a building that only opens once in ten years, even the staff is seconded from Yingxian Pavilion.
It can be seen that Danyang Zhenren is not a qualified businessman.
The auction is divided into ordinary seats and VIP seats.
Ordinary seats sit in the hall downstairs, exposed to everyone's field of vision, and charge ten spirit stones.
The VIP seat is the upstairs room, which is not only blocked by beaded curtains, but also has a special magic circle to shield the divine sense to protect the privacy of guests.
Of course, the price is also expensive, charging a hundred spirit stones.
Yu Xian took Yulan and Zhao Shiwen to the VIP seat.
But he didn't give the money.
Because it is the spirit stone paid by the Zhao family.
In addition to him, there was also the new patriarch of the Zhao family sitting in the corner with two cultivators who were cultivating Qi perfectly.
In fact, if you squeeze it, Yu Xian feels that you can buy VIP seats in a group, but you can save some money.
But most people don't, and they don't dare to do that.
But it doesn't matter if you're free.
Why should you give money for nothing?
in the room.
Yu Xian hugged a beauty on the left and right, crossed Erlang's legs, and watched the final preparations before the auction on the auction table.
"Yu Keqing, these two are the foundation seeds of the clan, and they have admired you for a long time."
The new patriarch of the Zhao family is named Zhao Liangwei, an old man with gray hair and a rich body, and he laughs like a Maitreya Buddha, and he is very polite to everyone.
He knew that he had picked up the position of the patriarch and used it for transition, and when the ancestor chose a good candidate, he had to abdicate and make way for Xian.
Therefore, as soon as he changed the domineering and selfish style of the previous patriarch, he was kind to others in everything, and he served as the patriarch for less than two months, and he had the nickname of the clay patriarch.
"The patriarch laughed, I don't have any reputation, it's just that I'm lucky, I'm just one step ahead of them."
Yu Xian snorted, and his eyes swept the two so-called foundation building seeds of the Zhao family, a man and a woman.
The man looked to be in his twenties, with a delicate appearance, and when he saw Yu Xian, he showed a slightly flattering smile, bowed and saluted:
"Junior, Zhao Jia, has seen Lord Keqing."
"I'm Zhao Bei."
The woman is wearing a red dress, outlining a beautiful figure, her face is cold, and her eyes are a little arrogant.
Yu Xian nodded: "Well, not bad, not bad." But I'm also a newcomer, so I won't tell you anything. ”
"I wish you all the best and build a smooth foundation."
After saying that, he turned his head and lost interest in talking.
After looking at these two people, he probably knew the reason why the Zhao family had not cultivated a second foundation building monk for so many years.
The two of them are without exception, they have strong qi and blood and strong mana, and they are both elites among qi cultivators.
But the aura on their bodies was vain, and they were not condensed enough at all, not even as good as his neighbor, the black-faced brother Li, and it was obvious that most of their cultivation was piled up with pills.
It's like a flower in a greenhouse, which seems to bloom beautifully and brilliantly, and a storm may collapse and even the roots will be blown away.
They were born in the Zhao family and have been well trained, but they also lack the tempering they deserve.
Even if they are given a foundation pill, the chance of building a foundation will not be too high.
No wonder Old Ancestor Zhao was so disappointed.
Thinking like this, Yu Xian couldn't help but look down at Yulan, who was lying silly in his arms.
The eldest brother doesn't talk about the second brother, Yulan seems to be even worse than them.
At least some of the mana of these two was cultivated by themselves, and it seemed that they had also experienced some battles.
And there was not a drop in Magnolia's mana that was not in the shape of an elixir.
The old patriarch saw that Yu was not in high interest in chatting, so he didn't bother anymore, but took the two juniors to wait quietly for the auction to start.
About a quarter of an hour later.
With the sound of a falling hammer.
I saw Zhao Laozu walking up to the auction table, bowing to the four directions, and said with a smile:
"I won't say much nonsense, everyone will start when they see what they like, and watch the excitement if they don't like it.
But I also have to remind everyone that real people don't like any trouble in the city, if you have any grievances, please solve them after you get out of the city. ”
"Now, the auction has officially begun!"
"First of all, please put on the first auction item, the finished Tsukidan!"
"The reserve price is five thousand, and the price increase is not less than five hundred each time."
Zhao Laozu clapped his hands.
I saw a classical beauty wearing a high-slit cheongsam on stage with a tray on the plate, and a white jade bottle with a transparent texture was placed on the plate.
There was a golden glow in the bottle, and a round object rose and fell inside the bottle like a living thing.
Seeing Tsukidan come to power, everyone in the ordinary seats was in an uproar.
"Why did you go to Tsukidan in the first place?"
"It seems that the auction this time is of high quality, and even Tsukidan is not the finale."
"I hope there will be a few more Tsukidans in the auction, so that those of us who are scattered will also have a chance."
"It's a pity that I don't have enough spirit stones."
……
"I have a bad premonition."
Yu Xian glanced at Tsukidan on the stage, suddenly sat up straight, stretched out his hand and was about to speak, when a pamphlet was handed over.
"This is the roster for this auction."
Zhao Shiwen handed it over with both hands, with a smile in her eyes, and a hint of pride in guessing her thoughts.
Yu Xian smiled and patted her hands, took the roster and flipped it up.
This is a privilege for VIP seats, as you can know in advance about the status of most of the items in the auction.
Yu Xian quickly flipped through it.
After a few moments, he closed the booklet, his gaze had become a little heavy, and he suddenly felt an invisible pressure fall.
This auction will not care about all kinds of rare magic weapons, elixirs, etc., but there are as many as eight spiritual objects about foundation building alone!
There are also three Tsukidans!
In other words, theoretically, this auction can produce a maximum of eleven foundation building monks.
You must know that in the entire Shangyang City, there are only more than 30 foundation building monks on the bright side.
Among them, the foundation building monks of the eight great families will occupy seventy or eighty percent.
Yu Xian took a deep look at Zhao Laozu who was smiling and looking at the bidding on the stage, and suddenly understood why he suddenly wanted to reform the Zhao family.
The situation of the Zhao family is not a day's cold, but Zhao Laozu will not change it sooner or later, but he will change it after he appears.
Yu Xian didn't think he had such a big face.
With the situation of the Zhao family, it was not a problem for him to win over one or two foundation building and casual cultivation before him.
But the Zhao family didn't do this, obviously because they didn't want to take up too many resources of the Zhao family with their surname.
Why did you treat him differently and give him such good conditions.
Nine times out of ten, it was because of some kind of sudden change that made the Zhao family need a strong foreign aid.
And he appeared just right, so even if he paid a little more, Zhao Laozu still chose him.
Sure enough, there is no such thing as a free lunch.
Zhao Laozu's preferential treatment to him now is all for the sake of making him die in the future.
As for what the changes are, and they are predictable......
Let Danyang Zhenren release so many foundation-building spiritual objects at one time, and let Zhao Laozu not hesitate to attract outsiders to enter.
Yu Xian's thoughts turned, and he soon guessed a possibility - the beast tide!
And it is very likely that it will be a beast tide of much larger than usual.
Only when the entire Shangyang City is threatened, will Danyang Zhenren take the initiative to strengthen the strength of others.
Otherwise, it is the instinct of a ruler to maintain the balance below.
After the auction, leave immediately!
Yu Xian made a decision immediately.
Running away, he's a professional.
