"Senior Mu, Miss Zhong." Husse Lei saluted Shi Mu and Zhong Xiu.
"I see, I understand..." Zhong Xiu had a clear mind. After looking at Shi Mu and then Husse Lei, he quickly figured out the cause and effect.
"It turns out that Brother Shi was the one behind all of this. I thought I really defeated Yuquan Pavilion through my own efforts." Zhong Xiu said, looking a little sad.
"Xiu'er, this competition is inherently unfair. Wang Ruikun secretly favors Elder Zhao. If we don't make some preparations, we will lose without even having to compete. Wouldn't that be too unfair?" Shi Mu said.
Zhong Xiu was silent for a moment, then took a breath, and the disappointed look on his face gradually disappeared.
"Brother Shi, you are right, I am too naive. However, Husserey, you took photos of so many things and spent at least one million spiritual stones. Where did you get so many spiritual stones?" Zhong Xiu
asked with some confusion.
Hussere smiled and explained.
It turned out that after Shi Mu and others left Youfeng Valley that day, Hussere took the risk and pretended to be the owner of Youfeng Valley Altar. Through some means, he used some means to transport the remaining goods that Shi Mu and others had been unable to transport, together with the Youfeng Valley sub-altar.
All the valuables accumulated over the years were taken away and managed to be sold off in pieces and exchanged for a large amount of spiritual stones. After that, they came to Cangxu City and secretly contacted Shi Mu.
There is today's situation.
"Of course, there are also some spiritual stones I earned from selling talismans in the past two months. In the end, I made a desperate effort to let Hussere use it to take pictures of the final concentration tower. In fact, many of them were originally commissioned by me, and no matter how good they were sold,
"High, it's just out of the left pocket and in from the right pocket. Even though the commission charged by the Chamber of Commerce is not low this time, there is actually no big loss." Shi Mu said with a smile.
"Brother Shi, why didn't you tell me in advance? Then I could help you too," Zhong Xiu asked.
"Xiu'er, you've been very busy these days. And it's best if you haven't been involved in this matter from beginning to end. If Wang Ruikun or Elder Zhao asks about it, you can deal with it calmly. By the way, Husseile is disguised
Those who participated in the auction, the mysterious man Yutian has disappeared long ago, and they can't find any details." Shi Mu said.
Zhong Xiu looked at Shi Mu with twinkling eyes, and after a moment he said:
"Brother Shi, thank you so much for your hard work. Not only did you take out so many things for this auction, but you also worked day and night to draw the talismans. In the end, you spent so many spiritual stones for this..."
"These are nothing. Being able to get the qualification to go to Lingtian Peak is all worth it. I remember you said that once someone makes a great contribution to the Chamber of Commerce, the mysterious president will appear. If you can successfully complete the Demon Race Special Envoy this time
If you are on a mission, you may have the opportunity to meet the president of the Chamber of Commerce. When the time comes, I will definitely terminate the contract for you!" Shi Mu said firmly.
If Shi Mu had said this before when he first met Zhong Xiu in the cave, he might have been a little emotional, but now he said it with full confidence.
Not to mention anything else, after this auction, he now carries almost a million spiritual stones. This amount of spiritual stones is not a small sum even for the Tianwu Chamber of Commerce.
Zhong Xiu was moved and was about to say something. At this moment, Shopkeeper Ge's voice came from the door:
"Elder Zhong and Vice President Wang are convening a meeting in the Hanyuan Pavilion Hall."
"Brother Shi, just wait for my good news!" Zhong Xiu said and stood up.
…
In the main hall of Hanyuan Pavilion, there are a few people sitting here and there.
Vice-president Wang Ruikun was sitting on the main seat, chatting with Zhong Xiu who was sitting at the bottom with a pleasant look on his face. But most of the time, he was talking and Zhong Xiu was listening.
At this moment, Zhong Xiu was dressed in a light green skirt and shirt, while chatting with Wang Ruikun with a smile, but there was a faint doubt in her heart.
Wang Ruikun looks like he is in a good mood today.
But she knew that Elder Zhao had a close relationship with Wang Ruikun. Now she was obviously the winner. Why did the other party behave like this?
After a while, many members of the Chamber of Commerce also came to the main hall one after another. Everyone sat down in their respective positions and waited for a while. Only then did the enchanting woman Elder Zhao arrive belatedly.
Elder Zhao's face didn't look very good now. As soon as she entered the hall, she sat down directly opposite Zhong Xiu, and then looked at Zhong Xiu intently without speaking.
Before the previous auction ended, the enchanting woman was quite proud, but she never expected that Yingxian Pavilion would actually advance the star stone, which everyone thought was the finale, by one place, and instead use another spiritual weapon as the finale, and
He also sold a huge price of 800,000 spirit stones, surpassing the price in one fell swoop.
This news was like a bolt from the blue, making the enchanting woman so angry that she almost lost her temper on the spot.
Seeing Zhong Xiu looking calm and composed today, she gritted her teeth with hatred. Her originally bright appearance now had a layer of gloominess.
"Now that everyone is here, I want to announce good news to you. In this Cangxu large-scale auction, the two major auction venues of Yingxian Pavilion and Yuquan Pavilion sold a total of 8.01 million spiritual stones. This amount
, which is more than double the number of auctions in previous years. Everyone here has contributed a lot. On behalf of the president, I would like to express my gratitude to everyone." Wang Ruikun said with a smile.
The people present at the chamber of commerce all looked happy when they heard the news. You must know that according to the old rules of the chamber of commerce, participants in the auction like them can get a reward, and the amount is based on the auction amount. Looking at the situation this year,
They will also gain a lot.
"Elder Zhong has really worked hard and spent a lot of money for this auction." The enchanting woman suddenly said.
"Why did Elder Zhao say this?" Zhong Xiu asked.
"Humph, you're just pretending! You and I both know the real value of those things in Yingxian Pavilion. How dare you say that there is no trick involved in fetching such a high price?" the enchanting woman snorted coldly.
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly became tense.
Everyone knew that this auction was actually a competition for the special envoys of the monster clan. The enchanting woman's words were too obvious, and she directly said that Zhong Xiu was unscrupulous.
"Elder Zhao's words are wrong. Auctions originally advocate free bidding. The price of the auction item depends entirely on the buyer's bidding. The one with the highest price wins. As for whether it is in line with the market price, this is not necessarily true. The rules of this auction Zhao
The elders should know better than me. Moreover, when the spirit stones are delivered on the spot, the Chamber of Commerce will charge a commission based on 10% of the handling fee. This procedure is supervised by Supervisor Zhou and is operated by people from the Chamber of Commerce. How can there be anything fishy in it?" Zhong Xiu?
He said calmly.
"As far as I know, nearly one-third of the lots in Yingxian Pavilion were bought by the same person, and the last item was also purchased by him at a high price. How do you explain such a coincidence?" Yaorao
The woman said.
"Zhong Xiu is also very curious about this mysterious buyer. As for his background, the Chamber of Commerce must have already sent someone to investigate, right? If even the Chamber of Commerce has no way of knowing, how can Zhong Xiu know about it?" Zhong Xiu said with a slight smile.
.
The enchanting woman paused after hearing the words, and then looked at Zhong Xiu angrily. Just as she was about to speak, she was interrupted by Wang Ruikun:
"There is no need to say more, two elders. Since we are both members of the Chamber of Commerce, we naturally have to put the interests of the Chamber of Commerce first. This auction has gained a lot, and the two of you are the ones who have made the greatest contribution. Especially Elder Zhong, for the first time
I am really impressed by the success in organizing the auction."
As he said this, Wang Ruikun glanced at the enchanting woman calmly, and abruptly cut off the enchanting woman's next words.
"Okay, according to the previous agreement, I announced that the position of special envoy to the three major tribes of the demon tribe will be filled by Elder Zhong. He will set off in one month." Wang Ruikun paused and said.
"Zhong Xiu thanked the vice president." Hearing this, Zhong Xiu stood up and saluted.
"By the way, Elder Zhong, why do I feel like something is missing today? Why didn't Fellow Taoist Shi Mu come with me?" Wang Ruikun asked.
"He is not from the Chamber of Commerce, but is just a friend of Zhong Xiu. It is not appropriate to appear in such an occasion." Zhong Xiu said.
"Haha, Fellow Taoist Shi is too outspoken. By the way, I have a suggestion. Would you like Elder Zhong to pass it on to you?" Wang Ruikun asked.
"Vice President Wang, please speak." Zhong Xiu said.
"I would like to invite fellow Daoist Shi to join the Chamber of Commerce and also serve as the guest elder. This time Elder Zhong is on an envoy to the demon clan, he will definitely be able to help you." Wang Ruikun touched his beard and said.
"Okay, Zhong Xiu will tell you." Zhong Xiu replied.
Wang Ruikun encouraged Zhong Xiu a few more words, and then announced the end of the conference. Everyone gradually dispersed, and Zhong Xiu also said goodbye and left.
"Uncle?" After Zhong Xiu left, the enchanting woman looked at Wang Ruikun pleadingly.
"In this competition, I have given you too many conveniences, but you still failed miserably, so you can't blame me." Wang Ruikun said coldly and walked away.
The enchanting woman stood aside blankly.
"Zhong Xiu..." She whispered through gritted teeth, her eyes filled with resentment.
…
After Zhong Xiu left Hanyuan Pavilion, he happily walked towards the warehouse rented by Shi Mu in the south of the city.
In the days after the auction started, Shi Mu moved to a warehouse in order not to be noticed.
Half an hour later, Zhong Xiu came to the warehouse door, waved his hand and shot out a white light, which disappeared into the warehouse door.
A layer of green light appeared on the warehouse door, which dissipated after a moment, and the door opened with a creak.
Zhong Xiu glanced around a few times, walked in, and the door closed automatically.
In the warehouse, Shi Mu was sitting cross-legged on the ground, his eyes closed.
He was trying to figure out the seventh-level technique of the Powerful Demonic Ape's Rebirth Art. At this auction, Shi Mu also bought a bottle of earth-level demon ape's blood essence through Husse Lei. The Powerful Demonic Ape's Rebirth Art could finally start practicing again.
.
Shi Mu heard the sound and stood up.
"Brother Shi!"
Zhong Xiu's face was full of joy, and he was about to tell Shi Mu the good news of getting Ling Tianfeng as envoy.
At this moment, her face suddenly turned pale, and her eyes were dizzy. Her white face suddenly turned red. She staggered two steps and was about to fall down.
Shi Mu's expression changed, his figure swayed, and the next moment he appeared next to Zhong Xiu, holding her body. (To be continued.)
