In the center of the city, there is a tall palace covering an area of dozens of acres. It is magnificently decorated and eye-catching.
It is the famous Yaowang Pavilion, a store under Yaowang Valley, and the most powerful business firm in the city.
Xiao Zhen walked all the way from the gate of Fangshi and walked in swaggeringly. Since he was going to dispose of the Moon Covering Token, of course he wanted to maximize his profits.
In the entire city, apart from Yaowang Pavilion, there is really no other better choice.
When Xiao Zhen walked in, there were already a dozen people in the store scattered around the seven or eight counters selecting goods.
At this time, a young man dressed in short clothes walked generously and came over.
"This senior brother is very polite. I would like to ask, senior brother, is there anything I can do for you?" Although the young man spoke sincerely and politely, I don't know whether he intentionally or unintentionally blocked his way directly in front of Xiao Zhen.
Blocked.
Xiao Zhen lowered his head and looked at his clothes. It turned out that the other party disliked him for being too shabby. He was probably regarded as a cultivator of retail investors. Even though the other party was just a boy, he was still from Yaowang Pavilion no matter what.
The status of outer sect disciples is much higher than that of low-level casual cultivators.
"What? I can't go in?" Xiao Zhen was not furious, but said calmly.
In recent years, he has been practicing at the mountain gate and rarely goes out, so few people recognize him.
However, after all, he had been in charge of Taixuan Sect for ten years, and he had an aura of calmness and authority. Just a glance in his eyes made the boy's heart skip a beat, and he couldn't help but feel fear.
"No. Senior brother, please come this way." The boy hurriedly took a few steps back and gave up several positions.
"Call your shopkeeper out, I have a big deal here." As Xiao Zhen spoke, he patted the storage bag on his waist.
Since he was determined to avert those eyes that were staring at Taixuanmen, he simply made a bigger fuss. As long as the news spread, the mountain gate would naturally be relieved.
"Senior brother, I am a disciple of the outside sect of Yaowang Valley. If you have any business, I can take charge of it. You don't need to bother the shopkeeper, uncle." As soon as he heard the other party speak, he wanted to see the shopkeeper. This outsider of Yaowang Valley
The disciples refused to give in an inch and never let go.
The shop owners who can take charge here are all foundation-building monks. You can call them whatever you like, cats or dogs.
If he is so ignorant and regards small business as big business, then his job will be over.
He has no talent in alchemy, so he relied on many connections to find him here. According to the regulations, every time he successfully completes a business, he can get some commission, and he can accumulate hundreds of spiritual stones in a month, which is no longer comparable to
Those second-level mid-level alchemists are poor.
"I'm going to auction a Moon Covering Token, are you in charge?" Xiao Zhen covered his mouth with one hand and whispered.
Although he spoke not loudly and deliberately lowered his voice, the dozens of monks present, all of whom were not advanced in cultivation, listened to every word.
One stone stirs up thousands of waves.
The word "covering the moon" really carries too much weight, and it can be said to be like thunder. After everyone heard it, they all looked in the direction of Xiao Zhen.
The boy in front was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly ran to the second floor. Halfway there, he turned back and said to Xiao Zhen: "Brother, please come with me. I will go to the shopkeeper immediately."
Uncle, please come out and negotiate with you."
After finishing speaking, he took out a transmission note directly from his storage bag, said a few words, and sent it out.
At this time, Xiao Zhen saw that his goal had been achieved, and he followed the other party to the VIP room on the second floor with peace of mind.
If he guessed correctly, the entire city should basically know about this in less than a moment or three. By that time, even if Yaowang Pavilion wants to use tricks, they will not be able to do anything about it.
As soon as Xiao Zhen sat down and the servants had not even served tea, a woman in yellow clothes in palace attire rushed over in a hurry.
"Fellow Taoist, are you going to auction the Moon Covering Token?" she asked aloud as soon as she walked in. Moreover, she was a dignified monk in the foundation-building period, so she was treated as "Fellow Taoist".
He felt the spiritual pressure faintly radiating from the other party's body, and it was indeed the person in front of him who was in the foundation-building stage. Although the other party was extremely polite to him, he couldn't be so confused about the importance.
There are still seniorities in the world of spiritual practice. If the other person is one level above you, you need to follow the etiquette of a junior and don't be arrogant. Otherwise, someone can do something wrong and it will be enough to drink a pot.
"Fellow Taoist, please sit down." The woman in yellow nodded appreciatively and asked Xiao Zhen to sit down.
Xiao Zhen sat down calmly and asked casually: "I wonder if your pavilion will accept the auction commission?"
"We, Yaowang Pavilion, hold an auction every six months, and naturally we accept commissions from monks from all walks of life. However, the auction commissions we accept must be items of innocent origin." When saying this, the woman in yellow paused.
Turning his attention to Xiao Zhen.
"I am the leader of the Taixuan Sect, and so is Xiao Zhen. The thing I entrust is the Moon Covering Token left by my ancestor." Xiao Zhen directly confessed his identity.
"It turns out to be Master Xiao. I'm glad to meet you." The woman in yellow suddenly realized, and continued: "Tai Xuan Sect does have a moon-covering token, and its origin is innocent."
"It's just that I heard that Senior Brother Xiao is still in seclusion to attack the golden elixir. Is it appropriate for you to do this?" After the woman in yellow finished speaking, she stared at Xiao Zhen closely.
Xiao Zhen's face was quite calm, without the slightest hint of guilt. He sighed and said: "The ancestor is indeed still in retreat. It's just that the ancestor gave the order before the retreat, no matter whether he can attack or not
Success, this token is no longer relevant. Now, in order to maintain the normal operation of the mountain gate, and without the ancestor personally guiding us, our disciples are really struggling, and even the supply of elixirs needed for cultivation has become a problem."
"My disciples have failed to live up to expectations. I really feel ashamed of my great love to our ancestors."
The woman in yellow glanced at the other party's clothes and nodded secretly in her heart. Indeed, as he said, if Old Man Taixuan succeeds in attacking the golden elixir, then Taixuan Sect will no longer need to worry about the small foundation-building elixir; similarly,
If the attack fails, it will be very difficult for Taixuanmen to keep this token. Rather than doing this, it is better to throw it out in exchange for some cultivation resources.
In this case, this operation of Taixuanmen is really reasonable and reasonable.
"It's really difficult for Master Xiao to make this determination."
"Don't worry, since you plan to put the Moon Covering Token up for auction, we, Yaowang Valley, will definitely live up to your trust."
After finishing speaking, the woman in yellow looked at Xiao Zhen with a smile and tapped her fingers on the table.
Xiao Zhen immediately realized that the other party was preparing to inspect the goods.
So, he carefully took out the Moon Covering Token from his storage bag and placed it on the table next to him.
The woman in yellow did not reach out to get it, but took one look and then looked away. The name of the Moon-covering Token was too loud, and it was obvious whether it was true or false.
"Okay, let's sign an entrustment agreement first. What do you think, Master Xiao?" After the woman in yellow confirmed that the token was correct, she was ready to discuss the details of the next step of cooperation.
If she remembered correctly, the last auction of the Moon Covering Token was a hundred years ago, and it caused a great sensation. Of course, Yaowang Pavilion itself wanted to get it, but they chose to auction it.
The way is, the one with the highest price gets it.
"That's how it should be. When the ancestor was still in seclusion, he ordered that if it was to be auctioned, Yaowang Pavilion should be selected. I have heard about the name of Yaowang Pavilion for a long time, so I won't treat me badly." Xiao Zhen hurriedly said again.
He took up the banner of Old Man Taixuan and patted him on the back.
"I see that you look very polite, but you are also very thoughtful." The woman in yellow has been in shopping malls for a long time, and she did not see the other party's intention. She said: "Yaowang Pavilion has always done business like this, and we have to take 10% of the commission.
.No matter how nice your words are, they cannot be reduced."
Having his mind read, Xiao Zhen could only laugh awkwardly. He had already understood these regulations, and he was gagged before he even started bargaining.
"However, if Master Xiao temporarily deposits the auction items in Yaowang Pavilion, I can make the decision and receive less commission." The woman in yellow glanced at the token on the table again and made a suggestion.
She thought that as long as she left the token in a conspicuous place in the hall, she would be able to attract more business. Moreover, having the actual object here would be more convincing and could also warm up the auction in half a year.
When the time comes, they, Yaowang Pavilion, will definitely be able to host the auction with great splendor.
The other party's proposal was in line with Xiao Zhen's wishes. Now that he had put the Moon Covering Token on the bright side, he had become meat on the chopping board and was in danger.
So, he pretended to think about it for a while, then agreed to the other party's request, intending to get rid of this trouble temporarily.
