The Millennium Auction Extravaganza is a carnival for the real big guys.
After the finale auction, enter the final stage of barter.
Ye Qian never expected that the process of the auction would be more like going backwards from the modern to the primitive.
However, after reading it, Ye Qian understood a little bit. When bartering, the Taoist Realm Venerable takes out the treasures that he does not need in exchange for the treasures that he needs.
Merit points, as a reference and standard for measuring the value of treasures, no longer have reference and measurement value after reaching the fourth level of the Dao Realm, and they can only be bartered according to their own needs.
These treasures above the Dao Realm opened Ye Qian's eyes.
After the thousand-year auction event and before the eight-thousand-year birthday of Emperor Guitian, the eight days were actually a good opportunity for guests from all over the world to develop connections, and Ye Qian was not as free as he thought.
One of the Ten Prodigies of the New World, the first alchemy master after the ancient catastrophe, no matter who he is, Ye Qian has become the target of invitations from many overlord-level forces.
It's the Jasper Phoenix Tail Peacock. Sometimes when she goes out to socialize, she will occasionally pass her identity token, hoping that Ye Qian will follow her. After all, Ye Qian is now considered the top star of Xingxiu Heavenly Palace...well, the signature talent.
Ye Qian, at this time, has also become the first choice for many practitioners to make alchemy entrustments. Now, Ye Qian is entrusted to refine a one-star grandmaster-level elixir. Depending on the difficulty, the starting price is 500 million merit points, and the ninth-grade elixir is 10 million merit points.
, the former is expensive, but Ye Qian’s output is low, while the latter is more practical. As for those below the ninth rank, no one comes to make them feel uncomfortable at all.
In this regard, Ye Qian was not in a hurry to refine elixirs to make money. In eight days, he did not refine a single elixir, and he only went to a social gathering, or to go to Wan Yongye's place. There was no way, he owed Wan Yongye
One-night stand.
Fortunately, at this private banquet, Ye Qian was not just wasting time. Among the top ten geniuses in the world, Ye Qian also met the seventh genius, the sword demon Jiansan of Xuanyuan Tianzong, a sword demon who was very different from the cold sword.
The swordsman who practices swordsmanship is dressed up in a fancy way.
Ye Qian's use of the word "huazhizhanzhan" on Jian San is definitely not derogatory. It means that Jian San, a man, dresses more delicately than women, with eyebrows and eyeshadow, pink and purple lips, and various small decorations on his head and body.
Putting these things on an ordinary man might give people a weird and perverted feeling, but Jiansan is different. It gives Ye Qian the sense that this man is a real monster, with a demonic aura and a strange charm in his heroic aura.
, it can be said that Ye Qian has seen such a strange man in these years, who fully displays the beauty of neutrality.
Furthermore, during this banquet, there were four other top geniuses from all over the world, two of whom even had a small exchange of three moves, without getting angry, and they exchanged peacefully.
After the banquet, Wan Yongye asked Ye Qian and Jian San to be taken into the side hall to rest for a while. He personally sent the others away and came over later. Before he could speak after entering, he heard his hearty laughter.
, cupping his fists and saying: "I've kept you two waiting for a long time. Next time we get together, Wan will punish himself with three cups."
Before Ye Qian could speak, he heard Jian San chuckle. He seemed to have a pretty good relationship with Wan Yongye, and responded with a joking smile: "Wan Yongye, if you say that, who would dare to come to the next gathering?"
"If there is good wine, of course you will come." Wan Yongye pointed it out, and then introduced to Ye Qian with a smile: "Jiansan and I both like good wine. Master Ye also likes good wine. There is a good wine in the imperial city tonight."
I wonder if Brother Ye is interested in going to the night banquet?"
"..." Ye Qian was speechless. He thought Wan Yongye kept the two top ten geniuses for something important, but it turned out to be just such a nonsense?
"Let's go together, let's go together!" Ye Qian showed a hint of excitement in his eyes and nodded, "The wine auction is such a crappy thing. Ye Qian is also willing to go through it. I have to say that Wan Yongye, the prince of the Lihuo Celestial Dynasty,
He really knows how to communicate.
Having a common interest in fine wine, the three of them had a very lively chat on the way to the Fifth District of the Imperial City for a private fine wine auction in Wan Yongye's private flying magic weapon. As the sixteenth prince of the Lihuo Dynasty, Wan Yongye had the most knowledge and knowledge.
Almost all of the world-famous wines in Guangzhou have been tasted and appraised, and everything from the raw materials to the brewing and even the uniqueness of the wine can be described clearly.
Jiansan is a bit special. He likes wine with a layered taste. The key is that he especially likes to mix various raw wines together to form a mixed liquor similar to Ye Qian's hometown cocktail.
As for Ye Qian, his personal taste is rather complex, and his favorite wine is the wine rich in the smoke and smoke of the world. This kind of wine is mainly private wine from small workshops, but he also accepts the expensive wine produced by big powers.
Not long after, the place where the fine wine was auctioned arrived. It was a small manor of some vintage. It was not very nice, but it had waterside rockery, exotic flowers and exotic plants. Wan Yongye parked his private flying magic weapon and introduced: "Imperial City
Really good things, from fine wine to gourmet food, are not sold publicly, and are rarely even listed in large-scale auctions.
This company has been searching for fine wines from all over the world for generations, and does not sell them to the public. It holds private wine banquets from time to time. It is considered the top private wine supplier in the imperial city. Most of the participants are venerable people who are above the Taoist realm, and some like me.
Waiting for practitioners of the Tao Peeping Realm with a special status."
"A simple banquet?" Ye Qian asked with a half-smile. If such a good thing happened, he could drink this family to bankruptcy.
"Haha, it's such a good thing. If Brother Ye encounters you, remember to call us!" Jian San said with an evil smile.
Wan Yongye couldn't help but smile when he heard this, and said with a smile: "The ticket is 10 million merit points, and it's just for wine tasting. It's only one cup. If you want to drink to the fullest, send a message to the organizer after the banquet**
."
10 million merit points for entry, just to drink a glass of wine? Even if Ye Qian is rich now, he still thinks it's really weird. If you go to this kind of drinking party three or five times, you will lose a fourth-level top-notch Taoist soldier.
.
This is actually something Ye Qian could not imagine before. In his mind, with the merit points, most of them are used to buy various cultivation resources, Taoist soldiers, natural materials and earthly treasures, fine wine and so on. If he has some spare money on hand, he can buy it occasionally.
You don't need to pay too much attention to buying it to comfort yourself. Most of his wine was actually obtained by killing enemies and plundering it. The money he really spent on wine was actually not much.
But according to Wan Yongye's understatement, such banquets are actually just a part of their normal life, even a trivial part caused by interests and common interests.
Perhaps such a luxurious high-end cocktail party can help you get to know many Taoist Realm venerables and develop some connections. Naturally, there are benefits, but if you exchange the real merit points for such illusory things, Ye Qian feels that it is...
pain.
This is not the mortal world like Ye Qian's hometown where one can stand at the top of the world just by relying on connections. After all, this is the world of practitioners whose own level of cultivation is the foundation. Connections only play a supporting role and are not that important.
No matter how wide your network of contacts is, when it comes to specific interests, you will eventually have to come up with matching interests, so the interests in this area are minimal.
This is actually just the ordinary life of people like Wan Yongye.
"Every banquet usually has a wine king at the finale. This time it was because his family found the wine before the ancient catastrophe in an ancient ruins. It was a hundred thousand years ago. I heard that there were many great wines above the seventh level of the Dao Realm.
The seniors all heard about it and came here." Wan Yongye continued.
An ancient wine that is one hundred thousand years old? Ye Qian feels itchy hearing it, but it is simply impossible to compete with those venerables who are above the seventh level of the Dao Realm. Regardless of financial resources or cultivation, the strength does not allow it. The previous thousand-year auction
During the grand ceremony, Ye Qian still forgot how these Taoist Realm sages spent money like water.
"So you are making us suffer?" Jian San cast a resentful look at Wan Yongye.
Ye Qian nodded in agreement. There was good wine right in front of him. He couldn't get it, drink it or even smell it. He didn't have to suffer to see ghosts.
"Let's share the blessings!" Wan Yongye said with a cheerful smile. After all, idleness is idleness.
After walking through the garden pavilion, a special maid led the three of them to the underground wine cellar. The wine cellar is divided into three floors. The top floor contains mostly fine wines aged from 500 to 1,000 years old, and the second floor contains wines aged from 1,100 to 1,000 years old.
Five thousand years of wine.
The last level is five thousand servings of peerless wine. Generally, such private wine banquets are held in wine cellars with a not very good environment. It is said that some changes will occur when the wine leaves the cellar. Ye Qian felt that
My balls hurt.
Fortunately, no guests seem to care about whether they taste wine in a wine cellar with a not-so-good environment or in a luxurious palace. They all come for the fine wine. The environment is not particularly bad and will not affect the wine-tasting mood.
When Ye Qian stepped onto the third floor, about twenty people had already arrived, mostly middle-aged and elderly men, and four beauties with extraordinary grace and grace. Ye Qian could not sense any aura of practitioners on them at all.
No different from ordinary people.
Three particularly young faces suddenly came in, immediately attracting the attention of the practitioners present.
"Is Wanliu here too?" The nearest middle-aged man said hello with a sideways smile.
"Bring a friend here to broaden your horizons. This is Ye Qian, Jian San, and this is Tong Sihai, the ancestor of Ruyi Tian Sect. He boasted that he should be able to enter the seventh level of Taoist Realm within a hundred years. I don't believe it. I don't agree with him.
I bet on a pound of fine wine that is 5,000 years old."
At this time, Wan Yongye completely lost the restraint of Prince Yongye and introduced him with a smile.
"You're going to lose!" Tong Sihai glanced at Wan Yongye.
"I've met senior." Ye Qian and Jian San bowed in greeting.
"Don't be so restrained, we are all drinking friends here!" Tong Sihai waved his hand, looked at Ye Qian with a smile, took out his identity token, and said proactively: "Wu Zixiao's master was rescued by you? Come on, let's get in touch.
Method, I can’t use the one-star grandmaster-level elixir, but for array elixirs, no amount is enough.”
"It's also luck that makes it possible to refine it." Ye Qian said modestly. It took him more than four years to refine the Formation Pill. Whoever likes to refine it can do it. Anyway, he is not contaminated, but the identity token of the senior
They've all been touched out, and he's not stupid enough to refuse...
