Chapter 1791 Auction

The middle-aged housekeeper is also a monk. As long as his spiritual sense is peeking inside, he will naturally know how many fairy stones Ye Luo has.

What shocked him was that Ye Luo's storage bag was filled with small storage bags, and each small storage bag contained no more than 100,000 immortal stones.

There are nearly a thousand such storage bags in Yeluo!

In other words, there are nearly 100 million fairy stones in Ye Luo's storage bag!

Such wealth shocked the middle-aged butler. He even wondered if Ye Luo was a direct disciple of the head of a major force in the surrounding area...

That’s not right, even the direct disciple of the headmaster will never be able to afford so much money!

But these are not things the housekeeper needs to consider now.

What he has to consider is how to keep Ye Luo, a big customer!

"Sir, please come inside!"

Then, the housekeeper groveled and spoke to Ye Luo in an extremely flattering manner.

As he spoke, he also made a gesture of invitation.

"Should I go to the lobby on the first floor or the private room on the second floor for these fairy stones?"

Ye Luo asked knowingly, raising his brows obviously because he wanted to make things difficult for the housekeeper.

By the way, it can also be regarded as a cure for his problem of looking down on others.

"The guest officer is joking. Considering your status, you must go to the private room on the second floor. Don't worry, I will arrange it for you right now."

The middle-aged housekeeper was obviously a flexible person. After hearing Ye Luo's words, instead of being angry, he had a smile on his face.

But then again, it seems that the smile on his face has never disappeared since just now.

"With a fake smile."

Seeing the middle-aged housekeeper like this, Ye Luo couldn't help but murmured.

The middle-aged housekeeper heard Ye Luo's words clearly, but he was not angry at all. Instead, he smiled and said, "Sir, are you coming with me?"

"No need, I like the excitement, the lobby on the first floor is fine."

Ye Luo waved his hand and then said coldly.

Ye Luo is not used to private rooms on the second floor, and participating in this kind of auction would be meaningless if it were not in the lobby on the first floor!

"Then, sir, come this way."

The middle-aged butler still had a smile on his face, and after saying that, he led the way, looking very humble.

"Isn't that the big housekeeper of Xuanjia Store? Why do you lead people so humbly? What is this man's background?"

"I don't know. It seems that the direction they are going is to the lobby on the first floor. If this person is strong enough, why would he go to the lobby on the first floor?"

"Let's go, follow us and have a look."

Seeing such a scene, the crowds of people crowded in the shop couldn't help but talk about it, and they all became extremely curious about Ye Luo's identity.

This is a Xuanjia store, and even if he is just a butler, his status is quite extraordinary in Xuancheng.

After all, it is no longer a secret in Xuancheng that the boss behind Xuanjia Shop is the city lord.

However, it is hard not to doubt that a great butler of such status would be so groveling to a young man.

And the most important thing is that this person went to the lobby on the first floor!

What kind of place is that in the lobby on the first floor? It's a place where people from all walks of life stay. The real rich and powerful have to go to the private rooms on the second floor!

Then, under the leadership of the butler, Ye Luo came to the lobby on the first floor, and then found a place to sit down.

"You can go and leave me alone."

Ye Luo waved his hand, indicating to the butler that he could leave.

"Please call me if you need anything, sir."

Seeing this, the butler didn't say anything nonsense, just nodded and bowed and retreated.

During the whole process, my aunt Luo Ying didn't say a word, and she didn't even have an expression on her face.

It was as if no matter how Ye Luo handled this matter, it had nothing to do with her.

Next, more and more people gathered in the lobby on the first floor, which meant that the auction was about to begin.

Ye Luo glanced around and found that the auction venue here was not much different from the one in the mortal world. There was a high platform in the center, which was used to display the auction items.

"Auntie, is there anything you want to buy at the auction?"

"Don't worry about me. Just take pictures of what you want. I'll take a look and then talk about it."

Then, Ye Luo looked at his silent aunt Luo Ying and asked.

Ye Luo knew that the reason why her aunt Luo Ying had been silent was not to interfere with her own judgment. After all, Luo Ying had already made an agreement with Ye Luo before coming out to practice this time. She would never do it until Ye Luo's life and death.

Take action.

And according to Ye Luo's strength and the heaven-defying skill of the Eternal Body, his life-and-death moment... basically doesn't exist, right?

In other words, Luo Ying had no intention of taking action from the beginning during this martial arts experience.

It all depends on Ye Luo himself.

"good."

After hearing this, Ye Luo stopped talking to his aunt and looked around.

In this hall, few people came by themselves. Most of them were groups of wanderers. Some were standing in the corners, while others were sitting.

If nothing else, these standing charlatans are here to watch the excitement, while those sitting are the real participants in the auction.

In the elegant rooms on the second floor, almost every room has people. Although the isolation formation is set up, it has almost no effect under Ye Luo's Nine Turns Holy Eyes.

Of course, Ye Luo didn't know any of the people in the private room, so it was in vain to look at them...

"Have you heard that the final treasures of this auction are Chaos Crystal and Samsara Glaze."

"You must know that many powerful people are here for these two treasures."

"Do you know where Xuanjia Shop obtained these two treasures?"

The auction was about to begin, and the people in the surrounding area couldn't help but start talking about it. Some people who thought they had exclusive information began to deliberately induce everyone to discuss it.

"Stop tempting people. If you know anything, just tell me quickly."

Sure enough, soon someone couldn't help but asked out of curiosity.

"I'm telling you, you must never tell others..." Seeing everyone's curious looks, the man immediately felt extremely satisfied, and immediately whispered: "It was snatched from Chiri Cave.

Come."

"Chiri Cave Sky? Is it the sect that was suddenly wiped out a while ago?"

"I heard that they provoked some big forces, and they were destroyed overnight!"

After hearing this, everyone became even more curious.

"What a big force, it's just the army of the city lord's palace. Our city lord has set his sights on Chiri Dongtian's treasure to suppress the faction. Chiri Dongtian didn't give it to him, so he compiled a story about mountain bandits to let the imperial faction

After defeating the soldiers, Chiri Dongtian was finally destroyed, and the sect leader of Chiri Dongtian was pitiful. He was a good man who did good deeds and accumulated virtues..."

Upon seeing this, the well-informed Jianghu guest sneered disdainfully, and then revealed the secret.

"Is there such a thing? The most important treasures are Chaos Crystal and Samsara Glazed?"

"That's not right. Since this is the treasure that the city lord has chosen, why would it appear at the auction?"

After hearing this, everyone was shocked, but they still had many questions in their hearts.

"The city lord is moody. It's normal for you to dislike a treasure after two days of it being fresh."

Hearing this, the knowledgeable Jianghu people sneered, and then stopped talking to everyone.

He knows the inside story that everyone doesn't know, which in his opinion will make everyone look down on him. Now that he has achieved his goal, he will not continue to talk about it.

Of course, he wouldn't know anything further.

"There is such a thing, destroying the other sect for two treasures, and then auctioning off the treasures afterwards?"

Ye Luo heard the whole conversation clearly, and his brows suddenly furrowed, seeming to have an even worse impression of Xuancheng City Lord.

I heard from my aunt Luo Ying before that the lord of Xuancheng City is a corrupt official. On the surface, he is the lord of the city, but in fact, he makes money through Xuanjia shops secretly.

Now it seems that this is no longer a simple matter of making money.

This is a change and I'll grab it immediately!

"As I said before, the city lord of Xuancheng is not a good person. The weak preys on the strong. This is how the world is today."

Luo Ying nodded, with a calm expression on her face, apparently not shocked by the news.

In her opinion, this was nothing new in the Zhou Dynasty.

This is not just the case in Xuancheng.

"Um..."

After hearing this, Ye Luo didn't know what to say for a moment.

Ye Luo has always hated corrupt officials, and this has not changed since he beheaded Ding Lei, the son of Prime Minister Ding Gu, in Dachu.

Even in the previous Ningyun City, Ye Luo didn't understand the actions of the Ningyun City Lord who supported the bandits...

But now it seems that this is not the style of City Lord Ning Yun alone.

It was exactly what City Lord Ning Yun said before he died.

Why do you want to kill me? Which official in Zhou Dynasty is not corrupt?

Corruption...even among the official circles of the Great Zhou Dynasty, it has become a consensus, not a mistake!

"It seems that this auction is just a means for the city lord of Xuancheng to make money. The items are snatched from various places and then turned into money through auctions... This business is really easy to do, even if you don't have the capital

of!"

Luo Ying said and couldn't help but gasp.

Ye Luo frowned again.

He could tell that what Aunt Luo Ying said made sense.

No matter how many fairy stones can be sold in this auction, it will be 100% profitable for the city lord of Xuancheng.

"If the lord of Xuancheng takes advantage of someone else's auctioned goods... wouldn't it be more profitable?"

Then, Ye Luo thought of a very terrible thing.

"Do you think you are the only one who can think of it? Don't overestimate his bottom line, he may not have any bottom line."

Luo Ying nodded and did not refute Ye Luo's idea.

For Ye Luo, this approach is unimaginable and even exceeds the limit of his moral endurance.

But for these officials in the Great Zhou Dynasty, it may be a common thing.

For officials like them, there is only one principle that everyone believes in...

That is...if you don't do it for yourself, you will be punished by heaven and earth!
