Chapter XXXVIII
Ye Xingchen's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said, "You say", the wolf-like eyes smiled secretly in the shopkeeper's heart.
"You come with your ears"
Shopkeeper Wen's nice voice came, and Ye Xingchen listened to it.
After hearing the voice of the shopkeeper Wen, Ye Xingchen's face changed for a while, and he smiled strangely, "This is not good?
After hearing the word bad, Wen Ziwei couldn't help but think crookedly, her pretty face turned red, and said, "Don't talk nonsense, if you lack money, go there to get it, anyway, aren't you also doing it for the sake of the name?"
The young man's face was a little unnatural, and he said, "You also made enemies for me in the restaurant that day, and today you want me to rob the disciples of various sects who collect protection money, do you want me to be chased and killed by thousands of people?"
Just kidding, Gui Xinlian, who stole Fu Tai's chest pocket that day, really wanted to make alchemy, and was going to borrow money to repay Ma Zhen, the owner of the pharmacy, today. Now because he has no money, he is going to rob people's houses, this is obviously what robbers do, okay? Not to mention after the robbery? Being hunted down and killed by all the forces in the town? Thinking of this, Ye Xingchen couldn't help but feel a little depressed, and thought it was a good way, but he didn't expect Wen Ziwei to let him rob.
Ye Xingchen asked himself that although he was not afraid of things, he didn't like to stir things up. Robbing people is provoking trouble. In addition, the thinking of the secular plane is deep-rooted, and my parents and older brothers often say that illegal things cannot be done. Ye Xingchen never thought that the money would come quickly like this. But... Erfeng Mountain collected so many things that day, and his heart was still very refreshing, although the exercises were not suitable for him.
Shopkeeper Wen saw Ye Xingchen's hesitation. What Ye Xingchen needs now is a fire to do it. There was a hint of a smile in her beautiful eyes. She thought of a way to stimulate Ye Xingchen. She said, "In this way, if you clean up all the sect strongholds in the town that oppress the people and collect protection money from the people, the three thousand money will be my personal reward for your mission."
Ye Xingchen pursed his lips and said that it was impossible not to be moved. Penniless, I can't afford a big pie. But there was still a look of hesitation in his eyes. He knew he could talk about it. Ye Xingchen's disdainful voice came out, "Sanqianwen wants me to be a scavenger?" Obviously, he pretended to be disdainful on his face, and the shopkeeper Wen could only enter the set.
"Hmph," Shopkeeper Wen snorted coldly, and said, "Add another low-grade spirit stone," There are not many people who dare to bargain with the Wen family in the Northern Regions.
The young man looked entangled for a long time, and seemed to be struggling. In fact, my heart has already blossomed, and the lower grade spirit stones can not only be cultivated but also traded.
"Two?"
The boy was still entangled.
"Three?"
The young man's tangled color eased slightly.
Shopkeeper Wen frowned slightly, he didn't expect this young man to be so able to bargain. Immediately, he said, "Five, no more!" Originally, she just wanted Ye Xingchen to be powerful in the city, and the ferocious power would spread all over Dongzhou, so that people who would trouble Ye Xingchen in the future would also weigh it. Unexpectedly, he accidentally entered Ye Xingchen's set. But when he thought of the transaction, Shopkeeper Wen had no choice but to smile bitterly in his heart, didn't this person find it himself?
The boy finally nodded, obviously very satisfied with the price. Shopkeeper Wen finally let out a sigh, this young man was too difficult to deal with.
At this moment, a crisp voice sounded. "Sister Wen, is this boy going to participate in tonight's auction?"
Auctions. The Tianhai Chamber of Commerce has a unique way of collecting money by auctioning martial arts, exercises, and various genius treasures. The trading method is mainly based on spirit stones, and bartering is also accepted.
Ye Xingchen pursed his lips and said, "Auction, what is that?" Wen Ziwei on the side frowned and said, "You're Xiaoli, right?" Xiao Li covered her mouth and chuckled, "Sister Wen has a good memory, Xiao Li has seen Sister Wen," and then winked at Ye Xingchen and explained, "The auction is the one with the highest price, and the materials or weapons used by the cultivators are auctioned, etc."
Seeing Xiao Li secretly sending Qiu Bo to Ye Xingchen, Shopkeeper Wen felt a little uncomfortable, and said, "Why are you looking for him?" Obviously, the Tianhai Chamber of Commerce is excusable for looking for itself, and it is a little strange to find the little poor ghost around him.
Xiao Li said, "Grandpa said to let this son participate together at night," Shopkeeper Wen said, "Is the old man also here, we are coming" Xiao Li nodded with a smile and gave the two of them a purple gold card. The card reads the purple gold medal of the Tianhai Chamber of Commerce. Ye Xingchen took the purple gold medal and looked at it curiously
Palm-sized. It's extremely delicate, especially the purple gold is pretty cool. The identity badge of the Tianhai Chamber of Commerce has three colors, corresponding to the three areas of the auction venue, the green hall, the blue front row, and the purple and gold card seats. In addition, you can also enjoy room discounts, reservations, and other benefits.
Seeing that Ye Xingchen seemed to like it very much, Xiao Li smiled and said, "If Ye Gongzi likes it, Xiao Li will send a few more?" Ye Xingchen was suddenly embarrassed, almost like a person who had never seen the world, shook his head and said, "One is enough" Xiao Li nodded and said, "Sister Wen, Ye Gongzi, please come in." ”
... ...
The internal structure of the Tianhai Chamber of Commerce is extremely interesting. The rectangular venue also has a small bridge, surrounded by poplars and green willows, and a clear stream flows under the bridge. A small bridge leads to a huge circular arena at the rear. Each entrance is guarded by soldiers whose cultivation is not lower than the Qi training period.
Ye Xingchen and the others, who were sitting in the booth drinking tea, saw the various sect members participating in the auction. Ye Xingchen didn't know any of them, so Wen Ziwei had to explain them one by one. When everyone looked around, they saw the half-gauze face of the woman in red. After a pause in the graceful figure of the woman in red, some people actually recognized the two. The turmoil on the first floor of the inn that day caused a lot of sensation in Qingtai Town. But when they looked at Ye Xingchen, they were disdainful and ill-intentioned. Obviously, how can a hillbilly like Ye Xingchen deserve to sit next to the shopkeeper Wen?
In the other booth sat a man in his early thirties, with a bowed head behind him. The two of them were looking at Ye Xingchen and Shopkeeper Wen talking and laughing with angry faces, and their fists were clenched and creaking. Shopkeeper Wen seemed to notice two pairs of eyes, and quipped at Ye Xingchen, "Stinky brother, look there, the people from Sheng Xianmen, do you remember the person in the back?"
Ye Xingchen looked over and saw Zhou Tiesheng. I thought of the people who were beaten all over the ground in the inn that day. Immediately, in front of the two of them, he gently held the jade hand of the shopkeeper Wen. Shopkeeper Wen's face suddenly turned red, and he said coquettishly, "What are you doing, it's the same as Sister Ling'er, it's really a disciple!" Ye Xingchen sneered at Zhou Tiesheng and raised his middle finger. made Zhou Tiesheng's teeth grit.
Zhou Tiesheng flattered the man who was seated, "Brother Zhong, look, that kid is the one who beat me before, and now he is still involved in the shopkeeper Wen."
The man's name is Zhong Zhennan, the leader of the disciples of the outer sect of Shengxian Sect, and his strength is about the peak of the foundation building period. At this time, Zhong Zhennan's eyes were slightly gloomy, and he said, "After the auction, I will kill him" Zhou Tiesheng's face suddenly turned happy, but Ye Xingchen then picked up the white jade hand of Shopkeeper Wen and kissed it directly. Suddenly, Shopkeeper Wen's face turned red. Pull out your hand.
Zhong Zhennan was completely gloomy, "Boy, you really keep giving me a reason to kill you!" "For a long time, there have been many first-class sect disciples who want to climb to other first-line forces, and the Wen family, as a first-line force, coupled with the beauty of the Wen shopkeeper, naturally there will be many people who will take it as their own prison.
Ye Xingchen turned his eyes, looked at Wen Ziwei, whose face was flushed, and said with a smile, "I'm sorry, I just wanted to be angry with them just now." As Shopkeeper Wen was about to speak, a crisp and familiar voice sounded.
The shadow on the stage turned out to be that little separation.
Ye Xingchen muttered, "I didn't expect Xiaoli to be the host of the auction." Shopkeeper Wen pursed his lips, his face softened slightly, and said, "What's the matter?"
"That's not going to happen. ”
"Welcome to the auction of the Tianhai Chamber of Commerce, this bid is anonymous, and the first collection of this auction is invited next!"
About four big men lifted a big bell with a height of two meters and a diameter of one meter from behind the scenes. The clock face is golden, and there are many dragons engraved with it.
"This bell is called the Lost Soul Bell, the eight-grade Dao weapon, after the magic weapon is refined, it can be suddenly used during the battle to surprise the opponent to stop for a short time, and the starting price is nine hundred spirit stones. ”
Xiaoli introduced.
Whether it is an attack magic weapon or an auxiliary magic weapon, it is collectively called a magic weapon, but there are three major levels of classification in the magic weapon, which are Dao weapons 1 to 9, spiritual weapons 1 to 9, and immortal weapons 1 to 3.
Nine hundred, the next grade spirit stone.
The corners of Ye Xingchen's mouth twitched, it's so expensive, what about robbery, right?
There was a commotion in the field. Obviously, many cultivators are extremely interested in this Lost Soul Bell. Eight-grade Dao weapon, refining two layers up is a spiritual weapon!
"A thousand spirit stones" The old man sitting in the front row raised the No. 5 plate in his hand and shouted a price.
"One thousand and one hundred spirit stones" The beautiful woman in the back row of the old man held up the number ten plate and added a hundred.
Then all kinds of auctions rang out...
1,400 spirit stones.
1,800 spirit stones.
In the end, the price seems to be called to death at three thousand spirit stones. This amount of low-grade spirit stones is not something that ordinary sects can get, not to mention that the latter few pieces are the real purpose of coming to the auction this time. Xiaoli was full of smiles, obviously extremely satisfied with the price.
"The fortyth guest shouted the price of 3,000 spirit stones, and if there are guests who want it, please increase the price"
"Three thousand spirit stones once"
"Three thousand spirit stones twice!"
"Three thousand spirit stones..."Xiao Li was interrupted before he could finish shouting.
"Three thousand five hundred spirit stones!"
Ye Xingchen heard the prestige with great interest, and it was Zhou Tiesheng who was holding the number plate with a proud face. Especially Zhong Zhennan looked at Ye Xingchen with a sneering face, and returned the middle finger just now.
The people who shouted the price just now looked over, and after seeing the parties, they shook their heads and sighed.
The cloudy eyes of the No. 5 old man were slightly dark, he was old, and the remnant candle would be extinguished after all, he just wanted to get a few good things for future generations, and he couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly, "The wealthy Zhongzhou sect is different, what does the old man do to fight with others?"
Xiao Li's eyes lit up suddenly, and he continued to add fuel and vinegar
"Three thousand five hundred spirit stones once"
"Three thousand five hundred spirit stones twice"
This situation is a test of people's psychology. Xiaoli knows that the more he can provoke the psychology of the people present, the higher the price can rise, and the more the chamber of commerce will naturally earn.
When Xiao Li was about to exit for the third time, the lazy voice of the young man beside the shopkeeper Wen sounded,
"Four Thousand Lower Grade Spirit Stones"
