Chapter 174: A Small Force "So many people came." ...
“There are so many people coming.”
"Who are those people covering their faces?" The strange man who came later was also seeing this kind of scene for the first time. Seeing that the senior knew all the guests well, he couldn't help but show respect and wondered when he could become like this. Then, he looked around and saw the people coming out of the strange device that looked like a bright moon.
The faces of this group of people could not be seen as they walked into Jinxin Trading Company in a dusty manner.
"Oh, this group of people are probably from our city, and they don't want to reveal their identities." The old cunning man saw through the identities of this group of people at a glance, and he also explained the details to the younger generation, saying: "This news has spread widely, and there must be a lot of people coming to watch the fun, but they are afraid of the power of Young Master Yang Ling, so they have to keep quiet."
"But didn't they say it was two Shizhu Village caravans?"
"The Shizhu Village caravan has no enemies? They are fighting among themselves in the village." The cunning scholar sneered. What he said made sense. He waved his hand and said, "Forget it, forget it. Let's just do our own things. With so many forces gathered together, it will be a lively scene this time."
In fact, this was exactly the case. Not long after he finished speaking, the scene in front of Jinxin Trading Company became even busier. The building ships were floating even faster. Even the evil spirits from a small force were extremely busy.
It wasn't until the auction actually started that I felt better.
When all the ships were floating on the top of the trading house mountain and the shopkeeper, dressed in gorgeous clothes, walked from below to the auction with a smile on his face, the noisy voices below temporarily stopped.
In a large ship at the head, Zhu Hui and Ban Lan were sitting on their respective chairs that were far apart from each other. Behind the chairs were Zhu Bai Lu Hui Hua Xian and others. The two caravan leaders were lazily watching everything that was happening below.
"Oh, Young Master Yang Ling takes it very seriously this time. He sent this black-hearted old guy this time?" Zhu Hui looked at the wealthy shopkeeper Jin below and said with interest.
"This auction will not only have our stuff, but also a lot of rare and strange food from other forces. We must send the top few shopkeepers of the company." Banlan is less talkative than Zhuhui, but he doesn't say much. The shopkeepers of Jinxin Company are all well-known. The more capable and well-connected they are, the higher they rank. If Shopkeeper Jin can't be in the top three, he's probably in the top five.
This is also the reason why the two caravan leaders were surprised.
Fortunately, there was no one else on the ship, so no one knew what nonsense the leaders of the two caravans were talking about.
"Second Master, report!" A guard knocked on the door of one of the better-looking ships, and then the door was opened from the inside. The guard came in from the outside and whispered to a middle-aged scholar in a green robe in the ship, "There is news that the third wife has also come to Jinxin Commercial Bank. Do you want me to send someone to stop her?"
The middle-aged scholar was the second master of the Qin family, namely Zhendao. After hearing what his subordinates said, he sneered: "It must be for the legendary golden orange."
"Forget it. The third elder's wife's family is not without power. Wait a minute. Even if her baby takes the golden orange, it won't be able to awaken its talent. What's the point of spending a lot of money? In my opinion, it's better to have another child quickly, even though it seems that the couple can't have any more children."
The guard lowered his head respectfully and said nothing more, listening to his master's cold words.
The shopkeeper below started the auction process. He came forward with a smile, and a maid appeared behind him holding something that looked like an animal bone. After the maid brought it up, she went down quietly. The shopkeeper stepped back slightly, revealing the entire appearance of the item.
There were densely packed golden patterns on the white jade-like animal bones, which looked like sacrificial patterns or some kind of plant. It looked like a human but not a human, an object but not an object, and the golden color was so bright that it looked like gilded.
"Grass Gold Bone can be made into strange weapons, strange food, and can also be used to make incense to worship ancestors. This item was hunted by a strange man in the King's Court of All Beasts by chance." The shopkeeper introduced the origin of Grass Gold Bone with a smile. This kind of strange beast is quite special. Many strange men will look at the source of strange food when using it, for fear of falling into a trap accidentally.
"It's Qingyou grade, and the starting price is 3,000 strange beads. Please increase your bid. You can also use strange materials of the same price to offset the price." After the shopkeeper said this, he took a step back.
Soon someone started to raise the price, saying, "5,000 Ghost Pearls."
"6000"
"6100"
The price was raised little by little, and many items were quickly sold out. Even the Zhuhui and Banlan among the buildings above were sold in several batches.
"Jinxin Trading Company is really different. We didn't bid on anything when we went to Wu Trading Company last time, but this time we saw a lot of good things." Zhu Hui couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the grass gold bone he had won. Really, he wasn't going to spend any money, after all, he was just running a caravan. But who would have thought that he would see some good things at this auction that even he was coveting.
"Of course Jinxin Trading Company is different from Wu Trading Company. Do you think this is a small place like Qiang City?" Banlan spoke in a sarcastic tone because he failed to snatch the Grass Golden Bone from Zhu Hui. Not to mention that Zhu Hui got the Grass Golden Bone and insisted on playing with it in front of him, which made him even more angry.
Banlan gets annoyed when she sees him.
Zhu Hui smiled and was not angry. What he had snatched was his anyway, so why should he be angry? He would want it again when he returned. He would use the grass and golden bones to make some good incense sticks to offer to his ancestors.
At this time, the shopkeeper also started a new round of auction.
"Everyone, next is a blood-grudge-level weird food, which is a name that everyone has only known not long ago." The shopkeeper smiled slightly in front of them and spoke slowly. While speaking, he looked up at the ship at the head without leaving any trace. He knew that the auctioneer of the item he was talking about was this group of guests.
Naturally, there were also some ships in front of him, but they were not big and the decorations were quite simple. They had no financial resources and could only be barely called a force. Even in the auction of Jinxin Trading Company, these small ships were the most numerous.
The shopkeeper continued, "Golden tangerines are blood-grudge-level strange foods. Three pieces are included in a serving. Peel the skin when eating. It is best to eat all three golden tangerines within half an hour so that the talent can be fully awakened. The effect is to awaken the gold talent with a 50% chance. You can rest assured about this. Jinxin Company has repeatedly inquired with the merchants in Shizhu Village. You can still trust these merchants when it comes to the effect of strange foods."
"In addition, if the eater is talented, he or she can also gain another trick. The trick is related to the weapon. There are more things that cannot be described in words. Please experience it yourself. I can only say that you will not be disappointed."
After Manager Jin finished speaking, he quietly waited for all the guests on the ship to digest his words before he slowly spoke.
"The bidding will begin now, and the starting price is 30,000 strange beads." Shopkeeper Jin said with a smile. The price of Blood Grudge-level strange food is often twice that of Qingyou-level strange food, not to mention the strange food related to talent. It is normal to increase several times.
The next auction will be even crazier.
"Manager Jin, can you tell us which force this strange food comes from? Why haven't we heard of anyone saying who has this strange food?" Someone in the boat below couldn't help but interrupt. The voice was very abrupt, and at first glance, it seemed as if the question was asked out of curiosity.
The air was still.
Manager Jin did not change his expression. He knew that the guest in the small boat was not speaking on his own, but must have listened to someone's instructions, so he had to speak. He raised his eyebrows, not angry at all, but slowly said: "He Cun Chongshan."
This is the instruction from the young master. If anyone asks about it at the auction, just say the name of the force directly. There is no need to hide it.
Nowadays, many tricksters attach great importance to the origin of strange food. The main reason is that strange food is not just about the level. It also depends on the cultivation process. Some small forces cultivate strange food that is not strong enough and only has the level. Even if the effect is good, the effect is limited. On the contrary, big forces have strange beads and cultivation methods, and the strange food they cultivate is very good. Even if the effect is not so rare, many tricksters are willing to give it a chance.
This doesn't mean that the effect of the strange food is not so important. The first thing that the strange people look at is definitely the effect of the strange food. It's just that when the strange food comes out of a small force, everyone will unanimously lower their evaluation. If the effect is not so outstanding, everyone will only offer a lower price.
As soon as these words were spoken, the lively atmosphere in the air suddenly became much lighter, and many of the evildoers from various forces heard of this name for the first time.
"Hecun Zhongshan, why didn't you hear it? Did you tell me about it?"
"Wait, is it Hecun Chongshan who sells Goucha fruit in Qiang City, or some kind of Qingyou-level strange food?" Suddenly, a voice of sudden enlightenment came from a building ship of medium-sized power. Obviously, this person's family sells a wide range of strange foods, so he naturally knows more information.
Gou Cha Guo has a general reputation among ordinary cultivators. He is mostly famous among body cultivators and flesh and blood cultivators. If you are not familiar with him, you may not know him.
Qingyou-level Weird Food? Does that mean this force only has experience in cultivating Qingyou-level Weird Food? Now, more people from other forces began to doubt and waver.
One of the ships of a medium-sized force.
Inside the ship, the maids had all heard clearly what Manager Jin had just said. The strange food released by a small force, even if it was of the Blood Grudge level, was enough to make people worry.
"Madam..." The maid looked at Madam Qin San in front of her worriedly. She took everything that was just said to heart.
"It's okay, let's wait a moment. I believe Jinxin Trading Company will not do anything that will damage its reputation." Although Mrs. Qin San's expression was a little solemn, she was still able to comfort the frightened maid, and her eyes were fixed on Shopkeeper Jin in the auction in front.
The second leader Qin, who was not far away, raised his eyebrows slightly, looked at his guards, sneered and said: "This is the golden orange you are afraid of. It is not well-known. Let's sell it first!"
"A blood-grudge-level strange food from a small faction. Could it be that, as I said before, these merchants from Shizhu Village are planning to make a quick buck and leave?"
The guard was also a little surprised. He never expected that this blood-grudge-level strange food would come from a small force. Could it be that his prediction was really wrong?
The upper ship.
The people of Baili County also heard what Manager Jin said below. The sturdier and darker man in the lead couldn't help but frown. He subconsciously looked towards the ship above his head, not knowing what Young Master Yang Ling was doing.
Are you really going to use a trick food from a small force?
