Bamboo horse has several faces

Chapter 53

Hong Yanzong allocated a place for Wantong Chamber of Commerce to hold Wanbao Pavilion gatherings, and the entrance is in a city within a city not far from where Ye Huai and the others live.

Different from the strict inspection outside the city gate, the inspection at the gate of the Wanbao Pavilion assembly is extremely loose. Under the plaque that says "Wanbao Pavilion" gate, Duan Songyang took out the invitation letter, and the cultivator at the gate glanced at it and let people in. .

Duan Songyang and Luo Zhi walked in front, and Ye Huai walked a little slower. Taking advantage of the two people in front of him not paying attention, he quietly tugged on Fang Yi's sleeve, and communicated with him secretly: "Hey, if you don't buy anything with this Lingshi Will you really come back?"

Looking at Ye Huai who has been counting the spirit stones in the storage mustard seeds since he left the house, Fang Yi said helplessly: "Yes, don't worry, the Vantone Chamber of Commerce's family will not take your money, as long as you don't buy it." Anything too expensive will do.”

Wantong Chamber of Commerce sings that the way Baoxuan sells magic weapons is bidding, and the spirit stones paid for the capital verification are to prevent people from maliciously raising the price. Once someone maliciously raises the price to buy something but cannot afford the spirit stones, then this person will be kicked out immediately. To sing Baoxuan, the Lingshi paid for the capital verification was withheld by Wantong Chamber of Commerce and would not be returned.

Ye Huai didn't want to be so petty, but he didn't have many spiritual stones himself. The part of the pile of spiritual stones that belonged to him was saved from missions when he was not the head of the sect, and it wasn't enough to pay a fraction of the spiritual stones for capital verification. , Most of them are basically earned by Duan Songyang over the years and some of the Duan family's family property. Ye Huai attributed the purchase of the Tiangang Bowl fragments to his own business, but now it is obvious that Duan Songyang has made the most of it, which makes him a little uneasy .

Don't accidentally overspend Duan Songyang's money at that time, then when will you have to go.

However, for things like Tiangangbo, is his money really enough?

It’s true that the Tiangang Bowl is an artifact, but the brochure basically didn’t introduce it in detail, and it wasn’t widely publicized back then, so few people knew about it. It looks like someone brought it out from the ancient secret mirror It's just a piece of tasteless stuff that I don't know what to make of, so Ye Huai has always had the fluke mentality of "maybe it won't be photographed at a very high price".

"A Huai?" Duan Songyang stopped and turned to see Ye Huai's frowning face, "What's wrong?"

"Well, let's talk about it first," Ye Huai stepped forward and whispered to him, "If the bidding exceeds the price later, I will lend you the extra spirit stones, and I can pay you back later with an IOU."

Brothers have to settle accounts clearly, although Ye Huai and Duan Songyang had to put the spirit stones together because there was only one place to put the spirit stones in the storage mustard, but Ye Huai still knew how many spirit stones he had.

A hint of helplessness flashed across Duan Songyang's eyes, but he still nodded his head: "Okay, I'll make an IOU after the filming."

Fang Yi recalled that just now the two of them seemed to care about each other, but now Ye Huai wanted to clearly define the boundaries.

. . . I'm not tired, he thought.

There are countless stalls in Wanbao Pavilion City, and the simple stalls are all equipped with magic tools of at least the level of immortals or magic medicines of the earth level. If any one is taken out, there will be many people fighting for it. But it has become the existence of the lowest rank.The crowds in the city are bustling and bustling, all of them are cultivators, but they all cover up and restrain their cultivation. Most of them are very low-key, and even their disguise is made in the direction of the public's face.

These booths surround a square wooden building in a circle. The wooden building has no door, and a large plaque of "Chang Bao Xuan" made of diamond wood is hung on each side.

A few people wandered around those stalls, and Fang Yi collected a lot of things, but Ye Huai didn't dare to buy anything because he didn't know the price of the shards of the alms bowl that day.

Ye Huai wandered around aimlessly, and stopped in front of a notice board: "What is this?"

There were various incomprehensible symbols and seemingly gibberish words listed on the notice board.

Fang Yi leaned over and said, "It's a buyer."

"Buying on behalf of you?"

Fang Yi thought for a while, and explained: "Some people want something, but it may not be easy to buy it in public, so there is a proxy buyer. This person pays enough price, and the proxy buyer is responsible for helping to buy it. You can also bid in Changbaoxuan. If the agent buys successfully and puts it in the place designated by the buyer, then the remaining money is the agent’s remuneration. If the agent fails to buy, then the buyer’s Lingshi It will be returned to the buyer’s pocket. The symbols and words above are the deeds made by both parties. Generally, the buyer puts the deed on it, and the buyer presses the symbol to inject spiritual power. If it can be opened, it means The single-generation purchase has not yet been accepted, and the person who injected spiritual power can choose whether to accept the order, once accepted, it means that the contract is completed."

Ye Huai thought for a while and figured it out: "For example, a person with a low level of cultivation wants those high-level magic weapons. He is afraid that he will be killed and seize the treasures if he buys them successfully, so he chooses to let a master buy them for him? Because of the contract , so there is no need to worry about masters embezzling goods?"

Cultivators are most afraid of the backlash of the contract, at the slightest, they will suffer physical injuries, and at the worst, they will have inner demons.

"It's not necessarily because I'm afraid of killing people to seize treasures." Luo Zhi also came over, "For example, some orthodox cultivators want to buy something that is not so orthodox, or they want to buy something secretly. Buying on behalf of others must have a shady mind. There are only some good and evil things. If you buy them, you may be misunderstood and have a bad reputation. After all, although Baoxuan claims to keep it secret every time, it is not a secret. The existence of the pavilion."

Tianji Pavilion, an existence that is keen to dig out gossip from various powerful sects.

If a thing can be used in the righteous way, it can also be used in the evil way, so you don’t need to explain the evil way if you buy it, but you may be suspected and gossiped if you buy it in the right way. The agent purchasing industry is booming.

Suddenly, the noisy bazaar suddenly became quiet from the east, and a flaming sword energy struck down from the wooden building, drawing a circle around the square wooden building, and the crowd beside the building consciously took a step back.

"Chang Baoxuan is about to open." Duan Songyang looked at the sky and said.

Just as he finished speaking, a familiar voice came from the wooden building.

"Welcome all fellow daoists to come to this meeting of Wanbao Pavilion! Gu is really flattered! Thank you all the great talents and fellow daoists for showing Gu some face!"

Ye Huai raised his head and saw Gu Xuecheng. Gu Heng was standing beside him. The sword intent just now was Gu Heng's sword intent.

"Gu Mou doesn't talk nonsense, the Singing Treasure Pavilion is about to open, please get ready for fellow Taoists who hold the entry bracelets! Let's take advantage of the moonlight to enjoy the treasures together!"

Gu Xuecheng raised a magic weapon made of a mirror, and the moonlight gathered from the sky into the magic weapon, and the surroundings instantly darkened, and the light of the magic weapon gradually became brighter. Then, his hand tilted slightly, and the moonlight gathered by the magic weapon poured out Down, poured onto the golden-brown wooden building, the silver moonlight slowly infiltrated along the grain of the diamond wood, and after a while, silver light shone in the wooden building, as if the moonlight was trapped in the building.

Gu Xuecheng shook the mirror, and made a gesture: "Dear fellows, please!"

As his words fell, a protruding wall appeared on each of the four sides of the wooden building. The wall and the building were separated, and then slowly tilted, and fell to the ground with a few "bangs", and the dust that was stirred up dispersed. , There are four direct roads leading to the wooden building on the ground in four directions around the wooden building, and the "end" of the road visible from the outside is a curtain wall of silver and bright moonlight like a waterfall.

Changing Baoxuan is actually a secret realm, Ye Huai remembered what Fang Yi said, and now, this secret realm has been opened by the power of moonlight.

People with golden rings walked towards the silver curtain wall one after another, enjoying the envious eyes of those who were not qualified to enter, but Ye Huai and others were just the opposite. They made up a disguise and tried to enter in a low-key manner. After all, Tiangangbo is here, and maybe that Mr. Feng or his subordinates are also here.

Bait is for catching big fish.

Ye Huai walked through the silver curtain wall calmly, and was teleported outside a room in the blink of an eye. The sect outside the room said "Si Shi Yi", presumably it was a label for them.

He walked into the room and found that the room was not small. There were four chairs beside an Eight Immortals table, high-grade spiritual fruits on the table, and four cups filled with spiritual tea. Yanzhu.

"The tea and spiritual fruit alone are enough for a few high-grade spirit stones," Fang Yi sighed, "As expected of the Wantong Chamber of Commerce, it's a generous move."

"I heard that they have a 30.00% resale commission." Luo Zhi said.

"30.00%," Fang Yi clicked his tongue, "no wonder."

Ye Huai didn't look at the things on the table, he saw Duan Songyang standing in front of the window, he walked over: "What are you looking at?"

"Look at the treasure." Duan Songyang replied.

treasure?

Duan Songyang made room for a little bit, Ye Huai looked through the window, and was instantly shocked by the scenery in front of him.

Outside is the sky.

The moon was in front of them, thin clouds shuttled outside, mixed with twinkling stars, everything that was far away seemed within reach.

He looked to both sides and saw countless small wooden buildings floating in the air on this side like theirs. Those small buildings had no windows, maybe they had windows, but they couldn't see what formations were arranged.

Ye Huai looked down, but he couldn't see the ground below, and the depth was bottomless.

"Welcome to Chang Baoxuan," came a soft voice, "The first treasure is coming soon, so stay tuned."

The voice seemed to appear out of thin air, with no specific source.

Suddenly, the thin flowing clouds began to spin, and the white filaments controlled the continuous gathering of water vapor, forming a vortex, and a white jar appeared in the vortex.

"The first celestial treasure comes from the reincarnation of the Fangyuan Gate, an ancient artifact from the hands of Situ Ran, a generation of master craftsman. The base price is [-] high-grade spirit stones, and the price increases by [-] digits. The first round of bidding begins."

A cloud of white mist gathered in front of Duan Songyang and turned into a blank sheet of paper. Duan Songyang reached out and took it, and handed it to Ye Huai: "If you want, use spiritual power to leave the number of spiritual stones on it."

Ye Huai definitely doesn't want this kind of Yue Fou, but he has to understand the rules.

"Write the quantity directly?" Ye Huai asked, "Don't you need to indicate which grade of spirit stone it is?"

"Chang Baoxuan only accepts top-grade spirit stones." Duan Songyang said.

So, it seems that this place is really not a place that ordinary cultivators can enter.

Ye Huai didn't even think about buying this thing, he just wanted to go through the process, so he tentatively wrote "one" on it.

The paper turns into clouds again and gathers toward the vortex, and the concentration of the vortex increases and then gradually fades away.

"In the first round of bidding, the highest price is 34 spirit stones. Bidder No. [-], the second round of bidding will begin now!"

Ye Huai's body froze, and he wanted to turn around and leave this place instantly.

With [-] high-grade spirit stones, he doubted whether he could earn so much before entering reincarnation.

Are all the things in this price range?Forget it, or he should think of other ways to deal with the things on the spiritual root.

Duan Songyang smiled when he saw Ye Huai's appearance: "Don't worry, it's definitely enough."

Ye Huai rarely refuted this time, because he knew that once the shards of the Tiangang Bowl were obtained, Duan Songyang would probably become his creditor—the kind that would have to be repaid for the rest of his life.

Be polite to creditors.
