Wanhe City, as an important trading city in the Middle Earth and Heavenly Continent, has a large number of monks, with a permanent population of about 30,000 to 40,000. Now that the auction is held once in a century, monks from all over the world gather here, and the number of monks in the city has definitely exceeded ten.
Thousands of numbers.
This is a terrifying number.
If Li Zhen can control this power, Hua can become the most powerful country in Dongsheng Shenzhou.
The auction will be held for seven days, and the items auctioned will also be in order, becoming more valuable day by day. At the same time, there will be a grand finale every day, which is regarded as a gimmick and attracts the attention of countless people.
The main auction venue cannot accommodate everyone. There are only 3,000 seats. These seats will be given to partners who have cooperated with Wanhe Alliance all year round, as well as celebrities from all parties and some people with profound backgrounds.
To put it bluntly, those who can participate in the auction are all reputable characters.
Li Zhen is the most inconspicuous existence among these people.
After the three people left their residence, they already knew the location of the main auction venue. While feeling the lively atmosphere, they strolled away. As a result, at the gate of the main venue, they met the Six Dongzhou Monsters who had come together before.
Since arriving in Wanhe City, the three Li Zhen and the Six Dongzhou Monsters have not met each other. They happened to meet each other today. The two sides saw each other and came forward to say hello.
"We said goodbye that day and haven't seen each other for many days. We didn't expect to meet today, but it's a happy event?"
Li Zhen opened his mouth and said.
The Six Monsters of Dongzhou also had excellent senses for Li Zhen and greeted him politely.
Li Zhen smiled and said: "Six brothers are also here to attend the auction?"
"Haha! Brother Zhou is joking. We are not qualified to enter. We are just here to watch the excitement. There will also be many small auctions around to see if we can gain anything."
Zhu Cong opened his mouth to explain.
Li Zhen used his former pseudonym Zhou Zhen.
Li Zhen nodded and expressed his understanding. According to the regulations, the six people were definitely not qualified to enter the main venue. Li Zhen had no intention of inviting the six people to enter the main venue. If he was willing, with his distinguished status in the Wanhe Alliance, he would invite
There was no problem for six people to go in, but he didn't want to do that.
The two sides were about to separate again, but when a steward from the Wanhe Alliance saw Li Zhen, he hurried over to serve him.
"Mr. Zhou! You are already here, but you have not treated me well. Why don't you invite Haihan?"
The person who spoke was the middle-aged steward named Duan De who had brought Li Zhen and the others to see Situ Jing. In order to conceal the identities of the three Li Zhens, Situ Jing claimed to be Zhou Zhen in accordance with Li Zhen's request.
Duan De stretched out his hand to invite, and the six Dongzhou monsters all looked surprised when they saw this. It was obvious that the other party invited Li Zhen and three people to the main venue. Li Zhen originally did not intend to invite the six people in, but in this case, if not
The invitation seemed a bit ugly, so Li Zhen said to Manager Duan: "Manager Duan, these six are my friends. I wonder if it would be convenient for them to attend the auction and gain experience?"
Manager Duan said without hesitation: "Young Master Zhou, your friends are our friends in the Wanhe Alliance. It's just a matter of a few more tables and chairs. There is no problem at all."
When the six Dongzhou monsters heard this, they were shocked. It was hard to imagine that Mr. Zhou's identity was so popular in the Wanhe Alliance.
"Why don't the six of you go in together and watch the fun?"
Li Zhen opened his mouth to invite.
The Six Dongzhou Monsters felt that they were causing trouble to Li Zhen and did not want to go in. However, they might not have the opportunity to attend such a venue in their lifetime. They really wanted to see it, so the six of them made simple eye contact, and Zhu Cong, as the representative, said: "We really want to
To open your eyes, let’s borrow the help of Brother Zhou.”
"No matter how polite you are, we are all friends."
Li Zhen waved his hands and said indifferently.
Li Zhen, the three of them, and the six Dongzhou monsters entered the auction venue under the guidance of the steward Duan De. At this time, the venue was already overcrowded and the noise was endless. This shows how much the monks from Middle-earth Tianzhou attach great importance to the auction.
But Li Zhen couldn't help but frown when he looked at the messy scene. He didn't like such a noisy environment, and it was easy to be exposed when there were too many people.
Duan De on the side noticed something strange about Li Zhen and seemed to know what he was thinking. He smiled slightly and explained: "Mr. Zhou, the conference venue is a bit chaotic. There is nothing we can do about it. There are too many people. But don't worry, I have prepared two for you.
The VIP room on the lower floor is quiet and quiet.”
Li Zhen nodded with satisfaction. If he was really in the hall, he had no interest in seeing it. It was just that the speaker was unintentional and the listener was interested. The six Dongzhou monsters on the side were shocked again. Although it was their first time to see this auction,
In the past few days, I have learned that the people who can sit in the VIP room are not only rich or noble, but also have extraordinary status. I am even more curious about the identity of Brother Zhou Zhen.
In fact, not only the Six Monsters of Dongzhou are curious about Zhou Zhen's identity, but even the steward Duan De does not know his true identity. He only received instructions from Situ Jing to serve him with the highest treatment, respond to all requests, and not be careless in the slightest. His standards have already caught up with him.
Serve Daluo Jinxian.
Arriving at the VIP room on the second floor, the room was clean and luxurious, with a good view of the entire auction venue. Li Zhen nodded with satisfaction.
"Young master Zhou, are you still satisfied? If you are not satisfied, you can change it again."
Duan Dedao.
"Master Duan is so polite. This place is very nice."
Li Zhen nodded.
Duan De felt reassured when he saw that Li Zhen was satisfied. He said a few polite words and then found a reason to leave first. After all, as a steward, he had a lot of work to do, and it was impossible to serve Li Zhen and his party alone.
After Duan De left, the servants served melon and fruit snacks. Everyone sat down, and Li Zhen undoubtedly took the main seat. Han Bao looked left and right, with a curious look on his face, and then his eyes fell on Li Zhen.
He hesitated and said curiously: "Brother Zhou, I have some questions that I don't know whether to answer or not."
"Oh? What does Brother Han want to ask?"
Li Zhen took a sip of tea, was very satisfied with the tea, and smiled.
"I'm just curious about the relationship between Brother Zhou and Wanhe Alliance, and why they were able to receive such a grand reception from the other party."
Han Baodao: "Of course, I didn't ask for privacy. It was purely out of curiosity. If there is any inconvenience, just pretend I didn't ask."
Han Bao's doubts were also those of the other five monsters. They all cast their eyes on Li Zhen, waiting for the answer.
Although Li Zhen had a good impression of the Six Monsters of Dongzhou, he could not tell the truth. He said perfunctorily: "My family has a deep business relationship with the Wanhe Alliance. If I take advantage of the family, I can be a guest."
The Six Monsters of Dongzhou will definitely not completely believe it, but they will not continue to ask questions, but as Li Zhen said, his family must have a close relationship with the Wanhe Alliance. Otherwise, how can he achieve the heaven realm with his small earth realm cultivation?
Taking care of things?
Duan De is a true immortal, a middle-level manager in the chamber of commerce, and his status is not low.
The auction had not yet started. Li Zhen remembered something and asked: "Brother Deng said when he came that he wanted to buy some immortal essence pills or alchemy materials to speed up his promotion to the heavenly realm. After so many days, he can buy everything."
?”
Brother Deng looked embarrassed when he heard this, and the other five monsters also sighed, obviously things were not going well.
"I'm not afraid of Brother Zhou's jokes. Although the six of my brothers are casual cultivators, they have some wealth over the years. I thought I could buy the Immortal Yuan Pill easily, but I didn't expect that the Immortal Yuan Pill here is five or six times more expensive than Dongsheng Shenzhou.
, I was really short of money, so I gave up thinking about it."
"It's just that the prices here are five or six times more expensive, and some are even more than ten times more expensive. It's simply robbery."
Han Bao said very rudely.
Things in Wanhe City are expensive, as Li Zhen has seen from his recent travels, but since he moved into Wanhe League, all expenses have been paid for by Wanhe League, and Li Zhen doesn't care much about it. Besides, the things here are expensive.
It's excusable, and it's not like robbing customers for no reason.
Zhongtu Tianzhou is short of supplies, and 99% of the supplies have to be transported from Dongsheng Shenzhou, so the prices are definitely high.
Now that the conversation has come to this, Li Zhen plans to help a group of others with a little effort. Although he has no intention of recruiting the other party, it is far better to make more friends than enemies when he is out. It just so happens that at this time, there is a knock on the door, and everyone will
Look towards the door.
"Master Zhou, Situ Jing would like to see you."
Situ Jing's voice sounded outside the door.
Situ Jing?
The six Dongzhou monsters looked at each other with expressions of shock and confusion.
In addition to the city lord, there are four major managers in Wanhe City, and Situ Jing is one of them. At present, the city lord leads the other three managers to go out for business. In recent years, Wanhe City and Wanhe Alliance have been managed by Situ Jing.
Dealing with it, it’s hard not to know Situ Jing’s name.
Situ Jing, one of the four top managers in Wanhe City, actually used the word "seeking". How big is Zhou Zhen's background?
Obviously, the relationship between Zhou Zhen's family and Wanhe League is definitely not a simple cooperative relationship, because being able to use the word "seeking" represents a superior-subordinate relationship.
Li Zhen smiled and said: "Director Situ, please come in."
The door of the room opened, and Situ Jing came into view wearing a formal suit.
"I just heard Duan De say that Mr. Zhou invited several friends to attend the auction, so I thought of coming over to ask if there was anything I could do to help, so as not to be neglected."
Situ Jing said politely.
Situ Jing was a dignified Taiyi Xuanxian, and as soon as the Six Dongzhou Monsters entered the room, they stood up unconsciously to show their respect.
"What a coincidence. I happen to have something to ask Director Situ for help."
Li Zhendao.
"Haha, I'm extremely honored."
Situ Jing said: "I wonder where it could be used?"
Li Zhen looked at Deng E and said: "To be honest, these friends here want to buy some elixirs and medicinal materials that are helpful for the advancement of cultivation. However, the prices are too expensive, so I thought of asking Supervisor Situ to do it.
It’s convenient and can provide certain discounts.”
"Forget about discounts or anything like that, my supervisor will make the decision and give some gifts to the six of them."
Situ Jing is very generous.
Zhu Congqiang calmed himself, cupped his fists and said: "It's absolutely impossible to do this. Being able to give some discounts is already a blessing."
Situ Jing smiled and said: "Since you are a friend of Mr. Zhou, you are a guest of Wanhe Alliance, so there is no need to be polite."
When Zhu Cong saw this, he didn't even dare to say anything, but he was actually very happy.
Situ Jing came here out of courtesy and came to say hello. She was going down to host the opening ceremony of the auction, so she stayed briefly and then left.
After Supervisor Situ left, Han Bao asked in a surprised tone: "Brother Zhou, is your family the boss behind Wanhe Alliance?"
The boss behind the scenes?
Hearing this, Li Zhen looked puzzled and said, "Why does Brother Han think so?"
Han Bao pointed to the door. Situ Jing had just left, and her body fragrance was still lingering in the room. He said: "That person is one of the four top managers of Wanhe City, an existence like Taiyi Xuanxian, but he wants to see you.
Using honorifics is not the way a partner should be treated."
Li Zhen did not expect that Han Bao was quite careful in his observations. In his impression, Han Bao was a very dignified person. However, Li Zhen was unwilling to explain too much about this. The more he learned about his situation, the more he knew about Dongzhou.
As far as the six monsters are concerned, what is not seen is a good thing.
"My situation is a bit special, so you don't have to guess my true identity."
Li Zhen reminded.
Veterans like Deng E and Zhu Cong agreed very much with Li Zhen's words. As long as they were sure that Li Zhen had no ill intentions towards them, and from the current point of view, Li Zhen's status was unimaginably noble. For the six monsters, it was definitely
They are heavenly beings. It is not a good thing for ordinary people like them to be too close to each other.
Meeting by chance and the friendship between gentlemen is as light as water. This is the best way to get along.
After Situ Jing left the VIP room, she went to the auction table below for the opening ceremony of the auction. After a concise opening speech, the auction officially began. Treasures were taken out for auction, and there were exclamations, bids, and people who got the treasures.
There was a constant stream of excitement in the auction venue. Li Zhen was not interested in the auction items below because they were too inferior. With his wealth and status, the treasure that could make his heart flutter would have to be an imperial-grade magic weapon at the very least.
Li Zhen accidentally discovered that many of the VIP rooms on the second floor were empty and had no guests. However, these rooms were all booked. He seemed to have a good understanding of the auction process and knew that the items from the previous day were not worth it and were waiting for the real auction.
Good things come out when they happen.
Li Zhen had nothing to do because he had to wait for news about Li Yushi, so he came here to participate in the auction just to kill time.
The first day of the auction was held very successfully. When it came to the end, Situ Jing kept his promise and sent Duan De to give six gifts to the Six Monsters of Dongzhou. The things were not too expensive, but they were just right. This shows that he has handled human affairs in the world.
Very sophisticated.
Situ Jing only met the six monsters once, but she took out six pills that were very useful for their current state.
Deng E received the Immortal Yuan Pill and some medicinal materials to consolidate the Heavenly Immortal Realm, which relieved him from worries for a long time in the future.
The Six Monsters of Dongzhou solemnly thanked Li Zhen. Without Li Zhen, they would not have been able to enter the auction, not to mention the gifts.
"This kindness will be unforgettable. Please bear with me and pay my respects."
Deng E took the lead and was about to salute Li Zhen. Li Zhen hurriedly stopped him and said, "Don't do this. We are all friends. If you have to do this, it will seem too alienating."
"Brother Zhou doesn't stick to trivial matters, but we deserve it. Although my six brothers are gentle and soft-spoken, they also have brute strength. If my six brothers are useful in the future, we will do our best."
Zhu Cong was very good at talking and promised Li Zhen.
"That's right! If I need help in the future, just say it's okay."
Deng E nodded.
"Easy to say, easy to say!"
Li Zhen smiled slightly, and then everyone left the auction venue happily.
