Chapter 188 The more the better

black market.

It exists outside the capital, located in an unknown valley.

From the outside, no one has noticed that a black market is located in a desolate valley.

You can go through the thorny passage.

Shen Changqing suddenly discovered that the so-called black market was much more prosperous than he had imagined.

"So this is the black market!"

Looking at the scene of people coming and going in front of him, he had a look of wonder on his face.

If he hadn't known the origin of this place, he would have almost mistakenly thought it was a small town in Daqin.

"Master Shen, follow me."

Ji Qu led Shen Changqing towards the auction house.

en route.

He looked around and whispered.

"Master Shen, there are some rules in the black market. The biggest rule is that you cannot inquire about other people's origins at will, otherwise you will cause unnecessary trouble."

"good."

Shen Changqing nodded.

It doesn't matter to him what the rules of the black market are.

All he cares about now is what price he can sell for the martial arts he brought with him.

Not long after.

Ji Qu took Shen Changqing to the Yuanyang auction house.

As soon as we entered, a waiter came forward.

Without any nonsense, Ji Qu directly showed two gold-gilt nameplates.

After seeing the gilded name card, the waiter's face changed drastically and he said hurriedly: "You two, please go to the side room and sit down. The younger one will go and report it right away."

The two of them said nothing and followed the waiter to the side room and sat down.

Less than half an hour.

A middle-aged man in rich clothes stepped in from outside.

His eyes first stayed on Ji Qu for a while, and finally fell on Shen Changqing.

"I am the No. 1 manager of Yuanyang Auction House. I have kept you two waiting for a long time."

"polite."

Shen Changqing's face was dull.

Jiqu, who was sitting next to him, didn't say anything.

Steward No. 1 sat down opposite, his eyes resting on Shen Changqing from beginning to end.

"This must be Mr. Shen Changqing of the Demon Suppressing Division. He is indeed a great figure in the world. The news that Mr. Shen killed the barbarian general makes me at the Yuanyang Auction House very impressed."

"Your Excellency, you are so polite. I never expected that the No. 1 steward of Yuanyang Auction House would be a strong master of the physical system."

Shen Changqing looked at the other party deeply.

In his perception, the person in front of him had a qi and blood as terrifying as a ferocious beast.

This level of energy and blood.

I have only experienced it from people in Qianxin Pavilion.

Obvious.

This No. 1 Steward abandoned his identity as the steward of the Yuanyang Auction House and became a powerful person in the later stage of the Grand Master.

Ji Qu on the side showed no signs of movement on his face, but he was slightly startled in his heart.

It wasn't Shen Changqing who said it.

He didn't even know that the person in front of him would be a late-stage master.

After his strength was exposed, Steward No. 1 still had a gentle smile on his face.

"Master Shen has a keen eye, and I admire you for it. It's just that I have been immersed in martial arts for decades and have grown up many years ago, and I can barely reach where I am today. Compared with Master Shen, there is really a big difference!"

Finished.

He coughed twice, cleared his throat, and looked serious.

"Let's get down to business. Except for Master Shen's three master martial arts, all the other auction items have been put in place. If Master Shen has brought the martial arts, the auction can officially begin. "

"Of course I brought it."

Shen Changqing directly took out the three copied martial arts from his arms and placed them on the table.

The eyes of the other two people fell directly on martial arts.

Invincible golden body!

Tianwu Shen Gang!

Hundreds of battles with swordsmanship!

Steward No. 1 and Ji Qu both had doubtful looks on their faces. Based on their knowledge, they had never heard of the names of the three martial arts schools.

but.

Precisely because he had never heard of it before, Steward No. 1 was truly relieved.

"If Mr. Shen is at ease, he will hand over his martial arts skills to our Yuanyang auction house. The auction will officially begin in half an hour."

"Of course Shen will believe that he can come to Yuanyang Auction House to auction."

"That's good."

Steward No. 1 smiled, put away the three martial arts, and stood up.

"The auction venue is on the third and fourth floors. I'll have someone lead you two up right now. If there's anything you want during the period, you two can also bid for one or two."

Finished.

Steward No. 1 clapped his hands, and a waiter came in from outside.

"Take the two distinguished guests to sit down on the fourth floor and wait for the auction to begin. Don't be rude at all."

"I understand, little one."

The waiter bowed.

"Two distinguished guests, please come with the younger one!"

Yuanyang Auction House occupies a large area. The first and second floors are mainly for selling ordinary things, and the third and fourth floors are mainly for auctions.

Come to the fourth floor.

After the waiter arranged a private room for the two of them, he withdrew.

The wing room is not big, it can only accommodate about seven or eight people.

There is a transparent window in the side room. If you look down from the window, you can just see the auction table below.

It's worth saying.

Because of the auction, the third and fourth floors are directly connected. Looking down from the windows on the fourth floor, you can directly see the ground on the third floor.

And the location of the auction table.

It's on the ground on the third floor.

Immediately.

Shen Changqing withdrew his gaze again and looked at the other rooms.

but.

The windows of each wing are blocked by a layer of something similar to glass from the previous life, making it impossible to see clearly what's inside.

Ji Qu said: "The thing on the window is called Liuli. It was originally introduced from Dai Viet. It can be seen from two sides. Later, it was improved and became one-sided see-through.

It is also because of this characteristic that it is used by many auction houses."

Speaking of which.

Jiqu pointed to the small holes on the wall of the wing. At first glance, they looked like tiny honeycombs.

"Those holes are to allow the sound in the room to spread out. If Mr. Shen wants to shout out the price, he can shout in the room and others will naturally hear him."

Listen to the explanation.

Shen Changqing looked calm.

He is not a country bumpkin who has never seen the world, and he will not be surprised like others who come to the auction house for the first time.

After the other party finished speaking, he smiled.

"Brother Ji is very familiar with the auction house. Could it be that he comes here often?"

"Haha, I will come here once in a while. After all, there are some good things that are hard to buy in normal times. You can only get them at auctions."

An awkward smile appeared on Jiqu's face.

Although the human skin mask is good, it cannot completely simulate the emotions, anger, sorrow and joy of a normal person.

At first glance.

That's quite weird.

After explaining, Ji Qu picked up the teapot on the table, poured Shen Changqing a cup of tea, and then poured himself another cup.

"The Yuanyang Auction House will not start an auction when it is idle. It only holds an auction at the beginning of every month. If someone wants to auction and misses the time, they will have to wait until next month.

This time we shouldn’t have started so early, but Master Shen’s name and the importance of the three masters’ martial arts have opened a back door to the Yuanyang Auction House.”

Ji Qu said with a smile.

The three master martial arts, combined with the title of Demon Suppressor, are enough to make a powerful person's heart flutter.

Seeing that Shen Changqing didn't speak, he continued.

"There are some people in the world who have obtained precious treasures that they cannot use themselves, or they want to exchange them for silver. Generally, in order to sell them at a high price, they will choose to come to the auction house to auction them.

It's just that the auction house doesn't give away everything. It must be evaluated and deemed to be worth no less than 10,000 taels before it can qualify as an auction item.

In this way, we completely prevent useless things from appearing in the auction and wasting everyone's time.

If Mr. Shen has an idea, he can directly auction whatever he likes later, and then the silver tael will be deducted from the three masters' martial arts afterward."

After Ji Qu finished speaking, he picked up the teacup and took a sip.

Just as Shen Changqing said, he is a frequent visitor to the auction house, otherwise he would not have the status of a distinguished guest at the Yuanyang auction house.

only.

Most of the time, I just watch other people's auctions and rarely take part in anything.

no way.

The Demon Suppressor's internal salary is relatively small, and even if the Demon Slayer occasionally earns some extra money, he still cannot make ends meet.

If you want to participate in the auction, if you don't have tens of thousands of taels of silver, you basically don't have the qualifications to speak.

on this side.

He is truly poor.

Master Shen also picked up the tea cup and looked at the auction table below.

"There are not many things useful to the Grandmaster in the auction, I guess!"

"Not much indeed."

Ji Qu nodded sympathetically.

"Most of the time, the items that are auctioned are useful to some Tongmai warriors and innate warriors, such as those useful to grandmasters, but only rarely do they appear.

But every time it appears, it causes some waves.

This time Master Shen auctioned off three master martial arts schools, and the commotion was much louder than usual. As far as I know, many sects from major prefectures came.

If half a month was not so tight, I suspect that even people from other countries might come here to participate in the auction."

"Brother Ji from other countries is talking about the Great Zhou Dynasty and the Great Vietnam?"

Shen Changqing looked startled.

Ji Qu nodded.

"Yes, Grandmaster's martial arts is a life-changing treasure for most people in the world. If it can be obtained, it can even change the fate of a sect or a force.

In the world of Da Qin, grandmaster martial arts are scarce, and in places such as Great Zhou and Dayue, grandmaster martial arts are equally scarce.

Wherever a martial arts master appears, others will flock to him.

It’s only been half a month, but already a lot of Jianghu forces have arrived. Almost all Jianghu forces from neighboring Guangyuan Prefecture, Nanyou Prefecture and other places have arrived.”

From Ji Qu’s words.

Shen Changqing suddenly realized that he had still underestimated his attraction to the master's martial arts.

but.

The more people there are, the higher the final price of the auction may be.

A smile appeared on his face.

"The more people who come, the better. If no one competes for it, I'm worried that the price will be too low!"
