Qin Haodong considered this idea several times from beginning to end and confirmed that it was feasible. Then he turned back to the room and said to the two girls: "Do you know where there is an auction house in the imperial capital? The bigger the better, I'm going to sell some things.
"
He had just arrived in the Imperial Capital not long ago and was not familiar with the situation here, but the two girls in front of him were both from the Imperial Capital and they should know where the auction house was.
Seeing that he was looking for an auction house, Wei Yanran immediately misunderstood his intention, thinking that he was trying to raise funds for an elopement, and chose to sell some of her things.
She was quite moved and said: "Actually, you don't have to do this. I still have some savings over the years that are enough for us."
As the eldest lady of the Wei family, she is naturally never short of pocket money, and has accumulated tens of millions over the years.
Qin Haodong was stunned at first, then understood what Wei Yanran meant, and said with a smile: "You'd better keep your money, I'm not used to using women's money."
Hua Mingrui said: "My uncle runs an auction house, and it is the largest store in the imperial capital, Jubao Auction House. If you want to sell something, I can take you there."
"That's great."
Qin Haodong was very happy to hear that it was the largest auction house in the imperial capital. Only such a large store could attract the children of the seven major families. If he found an ordinary auction house, I am afraid that these pills would really not be sold.
He said: "I want to sell some elixirs without exposing my identity."
This was something he had just thought about. Before revealing the secret of the strange demon, the auction must be kept secret.
Otherwise, if the seven major families in the imperial capital find out that these elixirs come from his hands, others will definitely become suspicious and probably won't even bid to buy them.
After all, in the eyes of these aristocratic families, pills that can improve one's cultivation are absolutely regarded as treasures, and they will not take them away no matter how much they pay.
"There's no problem with confidentiality. I'm very familiar with the store manager. Just tell him."
Hua Mingrui said, "But I don't think you need to auction the elixir. For example, the painting you just painted will definitely fetch a sky-high price if it is put on the market."
As soon as she finished speaking, Wei Yanran hugged the scroll in her hand tightly and said nervously: "This painting belongs to me and cannot be sold, not for any price."
She now regards this painting as a token of love from Qin Haodong. She values it more than life. How could she put it up for auction?
Hua Mingrui smiled and said: "Damn girl, I didn't say I wanted to sell this painting in your hand. Haodong has the ability to paint. He can just paint a random painting and put it up for auction."
Qin Haodong smiled bitterly and shook his head, and said: "Although I can draw a painting with a state of mind like this, it can't be drawn casually like other scrolls. It requires inspiration."
He was indeed not lying. The reason why he was able to paint this painting just now was because he was inspired by Wei Yanran's beautiful smile. Then he splashed ink and painted it in one go. After the inspiration, he wanted him to paint such a state of mind.
Painting scrolls is too difficult.
"Sorry, I was too impatient."
Hua Mingrui smiled apologetically, and then said, "Even if it is not a painting of the realm of intention, if it were painted at your level, it would definitely sell for a very high price."
If Qin Haodong just wanted to raise money, he might actually paint a few paintings and sell them, but while raising money, he also needs to help the seven major families improve their cultivation, so obviously pills are the best choice."
"I think art is priceless, and elixirs can also cure diseases and save lives. I think it's better to sell medicines."
Hua Mingrui looked embarrassed and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, Mr. Qin, I'm too worldly."
After saying that, she glanced at the clock on the wall and said, "Today there is a large-scale auction at my uncle's place. The auction is very high-standard. It starts at nine o'clock in the evening. It's almost time. Let's hurry up and get there."
Five minutes later, Qin Haodong and the other two walked out of the tea house together. Wei Yanran naturally took Qin Haodong's arm. She did not feel strange at all in front of this man. On the contrary, she felt very at ease and safe.
According to Hua Mingrui's request, Qin Haodong wore a big hat and a pair of large sunglasses on his face. No one would be able to identify him unless he checked carefully.
Until now, Wei Yanran still didn't know Qin Haodong's identity and had been planning to elope, so she also made some changes to her clothes, changing into a set of colorful clothes and wearing a pair of sunglasses.
The three of them came to the Jubao Store together. It was indeed the largest auction house in the Imperial Capital, and its scale seemed much larger than the one in the Magic Capital.
The security personnel here were very familiar with Hua Mingrui. After seeing her, they didn't say much and let the three people in directly.
Arriving backstage, Hua Mingrui went directly to Wu Mufeng, the manager in charge of the auction.
After seeing Hua Mingrui, Wu Mufeng said politely: "Miss, you are here, do you want to join in the fun and take some pictures of what you like?"
"I'm not here to take pictures this time, but to sell some things." Hua Mingrui pointed at Qin Haodong and said, "This friend of mine wants to sell some things in our store."
Wu Mucheng said: "That's no problem. What does this gentleman want to sell?"
Qin Haodong took out three Da Pei Yuan Pills, Gui Yuan Pills and Psychic Pills in sequence, and said, "Help me take out these pills and sell them. The method must be as I told you."
With that said, he gave some further explanations on the auction method.
Wu Mucheng said: "Which famous master did these elixirs come from?"
Qin Haodong shook his head and said: "You can't say these things, you just need to sell them."
"this……"
Wu Mucheng said in embarrassment: "If it's not made by a famous artist, I'm afraid it won't be able to sell for the price you mentioned. If all of them fail to sell at that time, it won't look good on our store."
Qin Haodong thought for a moment and said, "Well, let's lower the starting price to 100,000 yuan a piece."
Wu Mucheng's heart was full of contempt. This black pill was actually sold for 100,000 each. It seemed that it was sold cheaply. How could anyone buy this thing?
It's just that the eldest lady brought him here, so it's not easy for him to have an attack.
"I'm afraid this won't work. The boss will blame me then..."
Hua Mingrui said: "Just do what my friend said. I will take care of uncle."
"Okay then." After Wu Mufeng hesitated for a while, he finally agreed.
He has worked in the store for so many years, and he knows very well that Hua Mingrui is the boss's niece and the old man's favorite granddaughter.
He numbered the pills that Qin Haodong took out, handed them to the staff next to him, and then led the three of Qin Haodong into a private room.
This kind of private room is specially prepared for VIPs who do not want to reveal their identity. Sitting here, you can have a panoramic view of the entire store.
At the same time, this is a one-way glass, so you can see clearly from the inside to the outside, but you can't see what's going on inside from the outside.
After asking the staff to bring in fruits and refreshments, Wu Mufeng turned around and left.
The three people were sitting on the sofa. It was almost time for the auction to start. The venue was crowded, with hundreds of people already gathered.
When he saw a figure in the VIP seats in the front row, a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth. This person was Chu Xuanming who had just left the Tang Sect. He thought that his pills could be sold at a good price today.
Wei Yanran also looked at the customers in the store. Suddenly her expression changed, and the arm holding Qin Haodong became stiff.
Qin Haodong felt her changes keenly, turned around and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Wei Yanran said nervously: "My dad is also here. If he sees us together, we will be in big trouble. Then we will not be able to leave the imperial capital at all."
Qin Haodong smiled. It was a good thing that someone from the Wei family was here. Then he would not have to worry about selling his elixirs.
He said: "Don't be nervous, don't forget we have one-way glass here, they can't see you at all."
"Oh!" Wei Yanran relaxed a little, but still said, "How about Haodong, let's go and stop selling those pills. Anyway, I have enough money here."
"Don't worry, it won't take long for us to come. The auction will start soon."
"Okay then, I'll listen to you."
Wei Yanran nodded, but the two hands holding Qin Haodong's arms became harder and harder, obviously still a little nervous.
At this time, a young man walked into the auction house. Hua Mingrui said, "It's Yan Zicheng from the Yan family. He's here too."
Hearing that she was from the Yan family, Qin Haodong couldn't help but think of Yan Feifei, and his heart twitched. He didn't mind that this woman was a few years older than him, but he did care about his mother's opinion.
After all, the two were love rivals back then, and now they have suddenly become her daughter-in-law. I wonder if my mother can accept it.
Just as he was thinking wildly, the auction officially began, and the host and auctioneer walked onto the stage together.
The host held the microphone in his hand and said to the guests in the audience: "Before the auction begins, I would like to announce good news to everyone. This auction has added a special item.
This is a magical elixir, divided into three types, Da Pei Yuan Dan, Gui Yuan Dan and Tong Ling Dan.
Among them, the Da Pei Yuan Dan can improve the cultivation level of An Jin level warriors by one level, the Gui Yuan Dan can allow the masters of the third level and below to improve their cultivation level by one level, and the Psychic Pill can allow the masters of the sixth level and below to improve their cultivation level by one level.
for.
Of course, it is also effective for masters above the sixth rank to take psychic pills, but they need to take a few more pills to improve their cultivation level, which is not as obvious as those below the sixth rank."
After he finished speaking, the scene immediately became a sensation. Most of the people participating in today's auction were children of imperial families, and many of them were warriors. After hearing the effects of these elixirs, they immediately became as excited as chicken blood.
.
But then someone raised questions and shouted to the stage: "I would like to ask which master made these elixirs? Is there quality assurance?"
Others also agreed, after all, they had never heard of such an effective elixir before.
It's a good thing to be able to improve one's cultivation level, but it would be a disaster if one buys fake medicine. Not only will one not be able to improve one's cultivation level, but on the contrary, one will become obsessed with it.
The host said: "Due to the request of the consignor of the auction, the information on these elixirs is kept confidential. It cannot be said which master made it..."
As soon as he said this, the audience immediately shouted: "If you don't know the information, who would dare to buy this kind of elixir? What if you buy a fake medicine?"
The host quickly said: "Everyone, please be quiet. In order to increase everyone's trust, the client specifically proposed that the first person to take a picture of the elixir must try the elixir on the spot. If the effect is not good, not only will the refund be refunded immediately, but additional compensation will be doubled."
When they heard that they could try it out on site, and that if the effect was not good, they would be compensated double. These people immediately calmed down and were full of expectations for the elixirs mentioned by the host.
Chu Xuanming was sitting in the front row, and his eyes were filled with excitement after hearing the name of the psychic pill.
