"Don't misunderstand, hundreds of millions of dollars are nothing to me. I just want to discuss a business deal with you, which is related to the items you just selected for auction." Seeing the nervous look on their faces, Lin Yun smiled slightly and said.
These people may have some ability, but their ability is very likely to be quite limited.
Because some of the items these people selected for the auction were inaccurate, and also because these people did not have sufficient funds.
This is not the behavior expected of a powerful force.
In addition, when he approached them, the Cosmic Trading System scanned and identified them. It turned out that these people were not physically strong, with only one person having a higher level of spiritual power, reaching level one. This is why Lin Yun decided to discuss the business of spiritual items with them.
Otherwise, Lin Yun might not have spoken up like that.
After all, spirituality is a very mysterious thing, and he wasn't sure what kind of power those people on Earth who frequently come into contact with such mysterious things possessed.
At this moment, the tension among these people further confirmed Lin Yun's judgment.
A powerful force would never be this nervous after he came knocking on their door.
"Is that so?" Hearing Lin Yun's words, these people breathed a slight sigh of relief. Some of them even had a sudden thought, and one of them hesitated.
They, as spirit hunters, not only need to find items with spiritual properties, but also need to have connections with wealthy people; otherwise, how can they sell the spiritual items they find?
How can we make money if we don't take action?
Lin Yun's words tempted some people. His performance at the auction just now undoubtedly showed that he had great financial resources and was very discerning. If they got to know Lin Yun, it might be a great connection to the wealthy.
"What? With such a sound legal system in China, are you afraid I'll cause you trouble?" Lin Yun laughed, seeing the hesitation in their expressions.
"Please excuse my rudeness, sir. Where shall we go to discuss this?" The leader cupped his hands in a gesture of embarrassment.
To be fair, these people are quite powerful. Their identities have allowed them to come into contact with many powerful forces. They have been targeted by criminal gangs for bidding on some valuable items and have fought with some of them. They have also been pressured by the powerful forces of some wealthy people when selling items. They have traveled all over the country and abroad, and have experienced gunfights and jungle warfare.
However, their experience made them more sensitive. In addition, some of Lin Yun's bodyguards seemed to be quite extraordinary, and Lin Yun's wealth also made them wary. Therefore, after the auction, they subconsciously did not want to have any further contact with Lin Yun.
However, even if they did encounter it, they weren't too afraid.
Opportunities and risks coexist, and that's how they make their money.
"Let's stay at the Qingyun Hotel!" Lin Yun said after thinking for a moment.
"Alright!" the leader nodded.
Twenty minutes later.
Downstairs at Qingyun Hotel.
A line of cars drove up.
It was Lin Yun's vehicle with those spirit seekers.
"Qingyun Hotel isn't even open?" The spirit hunters were slightly taken aback when they got out of the car and saw the seal on the door of Qingyun Hotel. One of them said.
"It seems to have been seized..." one person said, his eyes narrowing slightly.
"Boss, there won't be any problems, will there..." someone whispered.
“It’s alright. This is a top-tier city in China. Even if something happens, it shouldn’t be a big deal. If the other party is sincere in doing business, we’ll just gain another connection!” The leader shook his head and said.
A meeting room at Qingyun Hotel.
Both parties took their seats.
"Qingyun Hotel truly lives up to its name as a top-tier hotel. We've never seen such facilities in any other hotel. My name is Lang Jiuping, and these are my companions. May I ask your name, sir?" The leader of the spirit seekers spoke first, praising the facilities of Qingyun Hotel before introducing himself to Lin Yun and asking for his name.
"My name is Lin Yun, you can just call me Lin Yun," Lin Yun said with a slight smile.
"Let's get straight to the point. I have some things to take care of later. Um, you seem to have noticed something unusual about some of the items?" Lin Yun then said directly.
He was also waiting to buy another professional device for absorbing and refining spiritual energy, and then place it in a central city location, so that he could obtain more spiritual crystals every moment.
In other words, every fifteen minutes he wastes now represents a significant amount of intellectual and spiritual value, and it shouldn't be wasted.
"Um... Mr. Lin, don't you know that we Spirit Seekers..." Seeing Lin Yun's directness, Lang Jiuping was taken aback again. Then, he realized what Lin Yun meant and hesitated.
In his mind, Lin Yun should know about their circle of spirit hunters. Lin Yun was a spirit hunter outside the circle. He must have discovered that they were also spirit hunters before, which is why he let them bid on a few items. The subsequent competition for the items... was because Lin Yun was too domineering... Could it be that they all misunderstood?
"Spirit seekers? What are spirit seekers? I understand, you are spirit seekers? What special items can spirit seekers discover?" Lin Yun was also taken aback and asked in succession.
This was the first time he had ever heard of this title.
“Mr. Lin…” Lang Jiuping smiled wryly. At this moment, he really didn’t know what to say.
This Lin Yun... seems to be a complete novice spirit hunter who knows nothing... let alone anything about their spirit hunter circle...
They had misunderstood before and got angry for nothing.
“Mr. Lin is right. Spirit seekers can indeed discover the special features of some items. We have a circle of people with certain rules to prevent different spirit seekers from competing with each other and reducing profits. This auction is actually something we fought for a long time to obtain the qualification to participate as spirit seekers…” Lang Jiuping said thoughtfully.
"So, I've broken the rules a bit?" Lin Yun asked, intrigued.
There are more than just these people among the spirit seekers. But thinking about it, it's not surprising. The world is so big and the population is so large. How could the group of people he randomly encountered be the only ones?
These people are called spirit seekers, and there is a circle among them, which Lin Yun had not expected beforehand. However, this gave him greater inspiration for his future search for higher spiritual beings.
"You know that's good, we suffered a huge loss this time..." A young man said angrily upon hearing Lin Yun's words, his tone full of dissatisfaction.
"Xiao Wu!" Lang Jiuping frowned slightly, stopping the young man from speaking. Then, he looked at Lin Yun and said apologetically, "I'm really sorry, Xiao Wu is a bit awkward with words. I hope Mr. Lin will forgive me."
"Mr. Lin doesn't know about spirit seekers, let alone their circle and rules. It's not considered breaking the rules. In the auction, everyone competes based on their financial resources. In fact, we've made Mr. Lin spend money." Lang Jiuping paused and said.
"Mr. Lang, you flatter me. As you said, in the auction house, everyone competes based on their financial resources. My expense is just a coincidence; I happened to meet someone who also knows their stuff. Speaking of which, I've also taken advantage of your circle. If there hadn't been more than just you spirit hunters at this auction, my expenses would probably have been much higher... Hmm, your spirit hunter circle, and its rules, are really good, preventing your peers from hurting each other." Lin Yun shook his head slightly and said.
"Oh? Mr. Lin, would you be interested in joining our circle of spirit hunters? I can introduce you!" Upon hearing Lin Yun's words, Lang Jiuping's eyes lit up, and he quickly replied.
If Lin Yun is willing to join their circle, and he introduces him, it would be a significant contribution and would make up for some of the losses.
"Can I join your circle of spirit hunters? What are the conditions?" Lin Yun asked curiously.
“If Mr. Lin can sense the special properties of certain items after passing some simple tests, this matter will be very simple. As for the conditions, the circle fee of ten million a year should not be much for Mr. Lin,” Lang Jiuping said.
"Mr. Lin, rest assured, this ten million is not a waste of money. This circle can provide information on spiritual items regularly and allocate entry rights to places like auctions to avoid competition among all parties and mutual losses. When necessary, this circle can also share some client information so that spiritual items in the hands of some spirit seekers can be sold more easily. Only a small amount of money is required..." Lang Jiuping then explained, afraid that Lin Yun would refuse the circle fee of ten million a year.
