Fights Break Sphere: Rebirth of the Sky-Swallowing Python, Medusa Takes It Home

Chapter 160, Dan City, Auction

"Boss, how much is this herb?"

"3000 gold coins."

"It's too expensive, 1500!"

"I can't even get 1500 to purchase goods. No, no, no."

"1500 for the last time. Will you sell it? If not, I'm leaving."

"Okay, okay, let's just think of it as making friends."

In a shop selling medicinal herbs, Ning Su was collecting herbs and practicing bargaining with the owners.

In Shengdan City, there is not much of anything, but the most common people are those selling medicinal herbs.

Basically all kinds of medicinal herbs are available here. Ning Su can find them here, whether they are those he has seen or not.

However, there was one thing he was not very satisfied with, which was that most of these medicinal materials were not of high quality.

They can only be used to refine some fifth-grade, sixth-grade, and seventh-grade pills.

For most people, these grades of elixirs are already very advanced.

But what Ning Su needed were medicinal herbs that could be used to refine eighth-grade elixirs, and these herbs could not satisfy him.

"The really good medicinal materials are all kept by individual sellers. It's a bit difficult to find them in these stores." Ning Su sighed.

Some truly high-grade medicinal materials are priceless and will not be easily sold publicly. They are either kept by the individual or traded with certain people.

If others want to buy high-grade medicinal materials, there is a solution. There is also a formal way - that is to go to the auction.

Many auctions also do medicinal material business on the side. As long as you have enough money, you can get even the most advanced medicinal materials.

"It seems that we have to change places."

Although the city of Saint Dan is very prosperous, there is no auction here!
Because this is Danta's place, and Danta does not need to hold an auction, which will only affect their reputation.

If you want to go to the auction, you can only go to the city near Saint Dan City.

There are five cities near Shengdan City, namely Caocheng, Yecheng, Dancheng, Baicheng and Qiucheng, each representing the five major families of Danta - Cao family, Ye family, Dan family, Bai family and Qiu family.

However, there are huge differences in strength among these five families, and the distances between them are both far and close.

The farthest one is Ye City of the Ye family, and the closest ones are the two cities of the Cao family and the Dan family.

There are also auctions in Caocheng and Dancheng.

Since there is no special auction in Shengdan City, Ning Su can only try his luck in these two cities.

……

Dan City.

A city ruled by the Dan family.

As one of the five major families in Danta, the Dan family is also a family of alchemy, and there are many alchemy geniuses in the family. Among the five major families, it is only slightly inferior to the Cao family.

The bustle of Dan City also reflects the strength of their Dan family.

"so many people?"

Ning Su came to Dan City and was shocked by the crowds of people here.

"Why does it feel like this place is more lively than Saint Dan City?"

Although the city of Shengdan is lively, it also has many rules.

Moreover, the Dan Conference has not started yet, but some people have arrived early and have already toured the entire Shengdan City. While there is still time, they also want to visit the nearby cities.

Dancheng is also a famous big city, of course there are many people.

"I was thinking of picking up a bargain, but it seems a bit difficult."

Ning Su could only find the only auction in Dan City first—the auction directly managed by the Dan family.

At this time, the Dan family's auction was also crowded with a large number of alchemists gathered here.

Ning Su was overwhelmed by what he saw.

If he had known earlier, he should have bought enough medicinal materials from other places before coming to Shengdan City. Now he has to buy them here, and it’s so crowded!

But there is no other way, no matter how many people there are, they have to buy it!
Fortunately, the Dan family auction was quite large, and Ning Su got in quickly. The most crowded area was the medicinal materials area, and most of the alchemists came for the medicinal materials.

Ning Su also took a fancy to a number of high-grade medicinal materials that could be used to refine eighth-grade elixirs, but the price of a single plant could easily be tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even millions of dollars, which left him dumbfounded.

"I'm so tired, are all the herbs here so expensive? Or are they just raising the price?"

He only had a few hundred thousand gold coins on him, and since he had never needed money for anything, he had never worked hard in this regard.

Now when I need to use the money, I realize that I earn too little.

Of course, it is easy for alchemists to make money - selling pills.

There is a place for selling elixirs at the auction.

But there were also many people in the place where elixirs were sold - Ning Su was not the only one who was short of money.

Those alchemists who are short of money also have to sell pills.

"Even selling pills requires queuing, I am really impressed."

Moreover, the Dan family has already added more staff, and there are several rooms for selling elixirs, but they are still too busy.

Finally, Ning Su waited in line for more than ten minutes before successfully entering the treasure appraisal room.

"Hello, what kind of elixir do you want to sell?" The treasure appraiser was a man who looked to be in his thirties, with visible fatigue on his face.

It seems that he has been very busy during this period.

"Selling these pills, can you help me see how much they can be sold for?"

Ning Su took out all the unused pills from the storage ring, more than a dozen bottles in total.

"Okay, please wait a moment." The treasure appraiser maintained his professionalism and began to count the pills in the bottle.
“四品紫心破障丹5颗、五品龙力丹5颗、五品复灵紫丹3颗、五品清心丹5颗、六品噬生丹4颗、六品龙虎丹6颗、六品……”

The appraiser's expression changed from relaxed at the beginning to gradually solemn.

He could handle those fourth- and fifth-grade medicinal pills with ease.

By the time he got to the sixth-grade elixir, he was already sweating profusely.

Because he himself is only a sixth-grade junior alchemist, the people who come to sell pills today basically only sell fourth- and fifth-grade ones, and a small number of people sell sixth-grade pills.

But it is very rare to see someone like Ning Su selling so many sixth-grade elixirs in one go.

And it’s not just sixth-grade elixirs… the elixirs in the jade bottles at the back already exceed the sixth-grade range.

It is also beyond the scope of appraisal of treasure appraisers.

He immediately understood that the alchemist in front of him, who looked younger than him, was probably a seventh-grade alchemist!

"Dear guest, some of the pills you sell are of higher grade, so it is difficult for me to estimate their price. So please wait here for a moment while I ask our elders for instructions," he said.

This treasure appraiser is not a professional in this job. He was only sent here because he was too busy at the auction recently.

Only a big family like the Dan family would be so curious to have a sixth-rank alchemist serve as an appraiser of treasures.

But even a sixth-rank alchemist has elixirs that he cannot identify!

"Okay, I'll wait."

"Okay, please wait a moment, sir."

The treasure appraiser hurriedly left through the back door to ask for help.

……

Backstage at the auction.

There was no one in the backstage at this time, and basically everyone was busy.

The young treasure appraiser was looking for someone to help him identify the elixir but couldn't find one, and he was so anxious that he was sweating profusely.

At this moment, a petite figure appeared in front of him.

He walked over as if he had been granted amnesty, but kept a distance and said respectfully,
"Miss Danchen, can you please do me a favor?"
