Chapter 48 Auction
People are coming and going on the streets.
Nan Xiao and his group of four lined up and squatted on the steps along the street.
"What should we do now?" Ye Wumian grabbed his hair and was a little annoyed.
If the eldest brother knew that they sneaked out to play without him, he would definitely be angry.
When he gets angry... Ye Wumian feels a chill down his spine.
I dare not think about it.
It's scary when the eldest brother gets angry.
"Shall we go back to find Senior Brother?" Nan Xiao said
Su Xun shook his head: "The auction is about to start, and we are too late."
"Use the spiritual jade to send a message to the eldest brother." Lu Huai suggested.
"Junior brother, your suggestion is very good. Don't mention it again next time."
"Fourth Senior Brother, are you afraid of the eldest senior brother?" Nan Xiao asked thoughtfully.
There was something wrong with the expressions of the two brothers.
The eldest brother is such a gentle person, this is not a big deal, just say something.
Why are the two senior brothers so scared?
"How could that be..." Su Xun replied stiffly.
Nan Xiao: “…”
Then why are you shaking?
The four cobblers discussed for a while but to no avail, and decided to pretend nothing had happened.
Now that it’s out, let’s have fun first.
Linglong Pavilion is one of the largest chambers of commerce in the world of cultivation, with a vast sphere of influence. Whether it's a large city or a small town, you can always find their branches.
Several people followed the crowd to the entrance of Linglong Pavilion store.
The front of the gate was bustling with activity, and monks entered in groups.
"Shopkeeper Lin, long time no see. Have you got any news on the spiritual plant I asked you to find last time?"
Shopkeeper Lin's face was filled with a warm smile. He hurried forward to greet him, bowing and saying, "Oh, Fellow Daoist Wang! You're finally here. You just arrived today. Please come in."
"Thank you, Manager Lin."
The little boy waiting on the side led the people in.
"Shopkeeper Lin, do you have any good stuff today?" someone asked
"You're right. You'll understand what I'm saying if you see it yourself. I guarantee you'll be satisfied..."
“…………”
It was Nan Xiao and his friends' turn.
Su Xun stepped forward and handed over a sign.
After seeing him, Shopkeeper Lin smiled and said, "So you are a disciple of Xiaoyao Sect. Please come in."
"Xiao Si, take the person to room two on the second floor."
"Guest, please follow me." said the little boy.
Nan Xiao and the other three followed behind.
Lu Huai approached Su Xun and asked curiously, "Fourth Brother, what did you show him that you let us in just like that?"
He observed that other cultivators had to pay a certain amount of spirit stones before they could enter.
Su Xun waved the token in front of him, and on it were clearly written five big characters: 'Xiaoyao Sect, Su Xun'.
Lu Huai became even more confused.
Isn’t this the sect’s identity token? He has the same one, but the name is different.
Su Xun slowly explained, "I don't know the specific reasons, but I only know that there are a few sects that offer a quiet and elegant room in Linglong Pavilion for free as long as you can prove your identity as a direct disciple."
The ticket to Linglong Pavilion is 500 spirit stones per person, and the price of a private room is 10,000 spirit stones.
Many ordinary cultivators cannot earn 10,000 spirit stones in their entire lives.
Nan Xiao clutched her purse. Was this one million really enough for her to spend?
The boy led the four people to Room 2 and said with a professional smile, "Dear guests, this is the detailed list of our auction today. You can take a look at it first."
After saying that, the child placed the list on the round table, left the room, and closed the door considerately.
Su Xun took the list and looked through it.
Nan Xiao walked around the private room. It wasn't a big place, with a round table that could just accommodate four people.
Open the window and you can see the entire field below.
The crowd took their seats in an orderly manner.
After a while, a tall woman walked onto the platform with two children.
She smiled and looked around at everyone, and the noisy crowd slowly quieted down.
The woman smiled slightly, and said, "Good evening, everyone. Welcome to the Linglong Pavilion Auction. I am Thirteen, today's host."
"I believe everyone is looking forward to today's auction items. Without further ado, let's talk about our first item of the day."
“…………”
Nan Xiao looked for a while, but she was not interested in the first few items.
She said, "Fourth Brother, let me see the list."
Su Xun handed over the list.
Nan Xiao took it in his hand, scanned it from top to bottom, and finally fixed his eyes on one place.
"Junior sister, are you interested in any of them?" Ye Wumian asked.
Nan Xiao nodded: "Well, I just don't know if it's expensive."
She pointed to one of the spots and said, "I want this stove."
She had originally planned to buy a refining furnace and hammer, and they happened to be available here. She hoped they wouldn't be too expensive.
Otherwise, she could only give up and go to a small stall to buy one.
Hearing this, three people gathered around.
The three of them were puzzled.
"Junior Sister, what do you want the refining furnace for?"
"I want to make some little things to play with myself." Nan Xiao replied.
The world of cultivation is full of dangers. If she doesn't have any self-defense skills, she might die at any time.
The assassin doesn't understand the pain of the nurse.
Ye Wumian said: "If Junior Sister likes it, buy it. If you don't have enough spirit stones, sell Fourth Junior Brother to Linglong Pavilion."
Lu Huai looked up: "Is Fourth Senior Brother so valuable?"
"That's not the case, but I'm used to selling him out when I'm out of spirit stones." Ye Wumian said indifferently, "He'll be able to redeem himself in less than a month."
Nan Xiao and Lu Huai silently moved away from Ye Wumian.
Third Brother is so scary. I hope he won’t sell them out next time.
Su Xun laughed angrily: "How dare you say that? You never bring spirit stones with you when you go out. Whenever you buy something, you pawn me outside, saying you're going back to get spirit stones. Have you ever come back to redeem me? I'm afraid you've forgotten me for a long time."
"I'm telling you, there won't be a next time."
It’s okay if you don’t mention it, but I get angry as soon as I do.
If he wasn't his senior brother, just based on what he did, he would have hunted him down for ten or eight years.
Ye Wumian shut up out of guilt and didn't dare to speak.
He really forgot, and every time he remembered, Su Xun had already returned by himself.
The atmosphere was a little awkward.
"Fourth Senior Brother, let's go to the auction." Nan Xiao said to divert attention.
The auction continues below.
"This is our tenth lot, the 'Black Iron Furnace.' This furnace is made from black iron and is much stronger than a refined iron furnace. The starting price is fifty thousand spirit stones, and each bid must be no less than one thousand spirit stones."
After hearing the quote, Nan Xiao breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, fortunately, she could afford it.
Those present began to bid.
"Fifty-one thousand..."
"Fifty-five thousand..."
"Sixty thousand..."
“…”
"Eighty thousand..."
Thirteen smiled and said, "This fellow Daoist offered 80,000, but there are higher prices."
There are not many weapon refiners, and this furnace is only of medium quality, so eighty thousand is already a high price.
"Eighty thousand per time..."
"Eighty thousand two times..."
"Eighty-five thousand..." A young man's voice came from the private room on the second floor.
Thirteen: "The highest price right now is 85,000, but there are higher prices."
Nan Xiao looked in the direction of the sound, but the curtain blocked his view and he couldn't see clearly.
She raised the sign in her hand and shouted, "Ninety thousand."
"The guest in room two has offered ninety thousand, but there are others here who offer a higher price."
