Chapter 855 Fifth Sister Becomes Smarter
Seeing Ye Linglong's expression, Lu Baiwei also realized that she already understood the interests involved during this period.
So, she lowered her voice and asked her quietly: "Junior sister, what are you going to do with the eight worry-free fruits in your hand? You have to be careful about this matter. First of all, the worry-free fruits are scarce this year, and selling one will attract attention, let alone selling eight.
Secondly, you have to think carefully about when and how to make your move. It’s best not to let people know that you have so many worry-free fruits in your hands, otherwise it will easily lead to trouble.”
Ye Linglong couldn't help but laugh when he heard what Lu Baiwei said, "Fifth Senior Sister, why have you been so thoughtful recently?"
"I asked our ancestor, and he told me."
Ye Linglong showed a hint of surprise.
"But don't worry, he didn't believe me, because when I told him I had eight worry-free fruits, he just rolled his eyes without caring about his image."
You can imagine the scene, it's really a bit funny.
"But I don't care. I'm a badass and I'm the best at making trouble. So even if he doesn't believe me, I'll keep pestering him to tell me. Then he gave me a lot of reminders. I remember them all and am waiting to tell you about them later."
Ye Linglong gave Lu Baiwei a thumbs up.
"Fifth Senior Sister, you are so smart!"
Lu Baiwei smiled triumphantly and hugged Ye Linglong's arm. Finally, someone stopped praising her beauty and praised her brain instead.
"Also, another thing you need to pay attention to is choosing a business. The two largest businesses in the upper cultivation world are Sifang Business and Jintong Business. Both are powerful, but judging from the situation this year, Sifang Business is more powerful."
Speaking of choosing a trading company, Ye Linglong remembered that he was a VIP of Jintong Trading Company.
The Sifang Company colluded with Qiu Zhiliang last time and captured and killed her after she completed the bounty mission.
She remembers all these things clearly.
However, before she could think carefully, a loud voice came from the front.
The voice came from the auction table. She looked up and saw that the auction host was already in place, reciting the opening remarks.
By this time, the auction venue was already full of people. Some people simply stood at the back of the venue to watch the excitement as they could no longer squeeze in.
There was a lot of noise from the audience below, and everyone was discussing the auction enthusiastically.
It was not until the auction host loudly announced the start of the auction that the discussion below gradually died down.
I saw an auctioneer carrying a box up to the auction table and placing it in the middle of the table.
"The first item for auction today is a Falling Moon Spiritual Herb. This spiritual herb was just brought out from under the Worry-Free Tree. It absorbs the essence of the moon and has a miraculous effect on the damage caused by burning fire. It is a rare healing spiritual herb."
After the introduction, the box was opened for people to appreciate, and during this process, there was a heated discussion below.
Ye Linglong didn't expect that this auction centered on the Worry-Free Fruit would not be a direct auction of the Worry-Free Fruit.
"So there's something else on sale at this auction?"
"Yes, everyone wants the Worry-Free Fruit, and it has been the focus of everyone's attention recently. Whenever it appears at an auction, it will attract a lot of attention. People are attracted to it, so of course we should take the opportunity to sell other things, so as to make the best use of it."
After Lu Baiwei answered, she remembered to take out a list from her ring and handed it to Ye Linglong.
"I forgot to show you this. This is the list of items for today's auction. Take a look and see if you see anything you want."
Ye Linglong took the list and scanned it. There were many kinds of items, but nothing she wanted.
Just as she expected, the Worry-Free Fruit was the last to appear.
This is indeed a great time to sell something.
"Fifth Senior Sister, the quantities of other items are written behind them, why is there no quantity behind the Worry-Free Fruit?"
"The Worry-Free Fruit is special. The number of Worry-Free Fruits sold is not made public. Only after the previous Worry-Free Fruit is sold out will we know whether there will be a next Worry-Free Fruit. This is to ensure that the price of the Worry-Free Fruit will not only go up or down."
Ye Linglong nodded, this was indeed a very smart approach.
If there are three worry-free fruits announced today, then the price won’t be so easy to increase.
Because every auction is not unique.
And if the quantity is announced, then the Worry-Free Fruits auctioned later will definitely be more expensive than the ones auctioned earlier. However, the Worry-Free Fruit is only a certificate to enter the secret realm on the Worry-Free Tree, and there is no difference in its use.
Those who sell it at a lower price will definitely not be willing to do so.
If the quantity is not announced, then each one may be the last one. If you don’t grab them, they will be gone, so the price at the beginning will not be low.
Of course, it is also possible that the buyers who paid a high price have bought enough and the later buyers will not buy anymore, so it is also possible that the price will drop.
This avoids price differences caused by the order of auctions and ensures fairness as much as possible.
“Moreover, even at every auction, the auction house will not release all the worry-free fruit. They will deliberately keep some, and it is best to ensure that there are some at every auction, so as to attract more people and gain enough attention.”
Ye Linglong nodded.
"So, don't let the news of our Worry-Free Fruit leak out. Not only will the big sects and big realms persuade you to sell the fruit, but they will also find out if it's auctioned off, and they will try every means to make you sell it. Unless your background is strong enough, you really have to take the trouble to deal with the Worry-Free Fruit."
Lu Baiwei imitated the voice of the leader of the Zhan Yue Sect, adding a bit of maturity to her voice, which sounded quite funny.
"Thank you for your advice, Fifth Senior Sister. Is my background strong enough?"
Lu Baiwei was stunned. Her ancestors didn't teach her this question, so she didn't know how to do it.
"I'm just teasing you, don't think about it."
"No, Junior Sister, I've figured it out. We have a very strong background. If anyone dares to offend us, we can't beat him openly, but we can take him down secretly! Aren't those people from the Yuan Wu Sect the same? There's nothing to be afraid of!"
When Ye Linglong heard this, she couldn't help but give a thumbs up to her fifth senior sister.
"Fifth Senior Sister, what you said is very accurate. Others have great ambitions and are wary of it, but we in the Qingxuan Sect are few in number, so we can run away at any time without fear."
Lu Baiwei became proud again after hearing this, and even couldn't help shaking a few times, almost floating up.
The auction was still going on. Ye Linglong was not interested in the other items, so he took out a book from his ring and sat aside to watch quietly.
Lu Baiwei, Ning Mingcheng and Ji Zizhuo were very interested and kept discussing it.
Until there was a knock on their private room door.
"Come in."
The door of the private room opened, and a shopkeeper from Sifang Trading Company stood outside with a smile on his face.
“I’m sorry to bother you all, but the auction is already halfway through, and there has not been a single bid in your private room. I’m here to ask you, do you dislike all the items?
Please don't misunderstand me, I have no other intention. It's just that Sifang Trading Company is asking this question in order to ensure that everyone has a satisfactory experience.
If you have something you want to buy but it is not on sale this time, please let me know and I will make a registration. I will try to help you ask around and if it is on sale at the next auction, I will notify you individually.
Of course, if you just want to wait for the worry-free fruit, you can also say frankly that this situation has indeed occurred quite a lot recently. "
