The Lord of the Laws of Heaven

Chapter 29 Selling
"Green Wood Spiritual Liquid can boost the cultivation of Wood-type practitioners. The starting price is 5,000, and each bid must not be less than 1,000."

A maid brought a plate and placed it on the table nearby. On the plate was a green porcelain bottle.

Yafei pointed at the porcelain vase and explained the effects and rules of the auction items.

"Six thousand..." someone held up a sign.

"Number 24 bids . Anyone else want to continue?"

"Seven thousand."

"Okay, number 17 is bidding ."

"Eight thousand."

"..."

Bidding frenzy ensued, and No. 24 ultimately bought it for . After the Aoki Spiritual Fluid was placed, the next item on the table was a metal with red markings.

"Red-veined gold, used to craft weapons, can amplify the power of fire-based fighting techniques. Forged into a weapon, it's the perfect companion for fire-based practitioners. Starting price: 4,000, and each bid must be no less than 1,000."

"Eight thousand."

"..."

Xiao Jun watched the enthusiastic bidding in front of him, and occasionally just joined in to see if he could get rare materials at a low price, but there was no chance of finding a bargain.

After a few times, Xiao Jun no longer focused on general auction items. Although Xiao Jun did not have any evidence, his intuition told him that there was a shill at this auction.

It is almost impossible to get an item at a low price, and they will definitely ensure that the auction item will not be lower than a certain price line.

"This is a remedy for longevity, a magical medicine made by a master alchemist. It can extend one's life by three years. The starting price is ten thousand, and each bid must not be less than three thousand."

"Thirty thousand!" An old man held up a sign.

"Okay, number 41's offer is gold coins. This health-promoting powder is a life-extending ingredient crafted by a master alchemist who has scoured various medicinal herbs. This is like buying life with money!"

Yafei introduced the uses of the product, but everyone could see the provocative meaning in it. But so what, there would always be people who fell for it.

"Fifty thousand!" another old man raised a sign.

"The bid has reached fifty thousand! Fifty thousand per time!"

"Eighty thousand!" The old man who was bidding first frowned at the man who was bidding fifty thousand and scolded, "Don't even think about competing with me!"

"One hundred thousand!" This time it was a middle-aged man with a sad face who raised the sign.

"What?" Everyone was shocked by the price. The longevity elixir was indeed very expensive, but it could only extend life by three years!

"One hundred and one hundred thousand." The old man No. 41 gritted his teeth and stared at the middle-aged man with a gloomy face.

But the middle-aged man pretended not to see it and continued to bid.

"One hundred and three thousand gold coins."

The middle-aged man called out this price, which seemed to indicate that he was financially strapped.

"One hundred and twenty thousand!" The old man shouted out a new price again, but his face was distorted. Everyone roughly understood one thing, that is, the financial resources of both parties had reached their limits, and they all stared at the middle-aged man to watch the show.

This time the middle-aged man just sighed and stopped asking for a new price.

"One hundred and twenty thousand once, one hundred and twenty thousand twice, one hundred and twenty thousand three times." Ya Fei made the final decision: "Deal! Congratulations to No. 41 for winning the health-preserving powder."

Xiao Jun was amazed when he saw the drama of this auction.

"Alchemist? Is this how alchemists make money?" Xiao Jun was completely surprised. Judging from the auction's reserve price, the cost of the health-preserving powder would definitely not exceed 50,000.

Because the reserve price of a general auction is about 20% to 70% of the original price, as a result, you can earn at least more than double the net profit by just bidding.

Suddenly, my hard work in the hand-rubbing fighting skills didn't seem so exciting anymore. Although the hand-rubbing fighting skills were a cost-free business, the profits earned were so low.

The skill of refining medicine is so precious, it is simply like printing money and rubbing gold with your hands!
"Hand-rubbing fighting techniques have absolutely no future. Not only is it dangerous and easy to be targeted, but it's also hard to make money." Xiao Jun began to reflect on his mistakes and began to study how to obtain huge profits.

Monopoly, cheating, deceiving, kidnapping, and swindling... these are good ways to make money. Xiao Jun is thinking hard about how to make a fortune. Cheating and kidnapping are only Xiao Jun's second choice. The most important thing is monopoly. Alchemist is a natural monopoly profession, so the profits are so huge.

What is a monopoly? The essence of monopoly is that I have what others do not. Xiao Jun has something that others do not. His mind suddenly turned to the Star Map of the Heavens, but the help it provides now is very limited.

The next plate served was a scroll.

"A mid-level Xuan-level fighting skill, 'Rain of Pear Blossom Needles,' can transform Dou Qi into a rainstorm of flying needles. The flying needles intertwine to create a hidden formation. The flying needles can be controlled and transformed into dragons. The condensed flying needles can easily penetrate the protective shield of any fighter's Huang-level fighting skill..."

Ya Fei directly and clearly demonstrated all the functions of the scroll.

"The starting price is 40,000 gold coins, and each bid must not be less than 5,000 gold coins."

The time has finally come for the auction of the fighting skills that Xiao Jun made with his own hands. Xiao Jun is getting interested and is waiting to see what the result of the auction will be.
"Sixty thousand!" What surprised Xiao Jun was that the person holding the sign was Xiao Zhan, the head of the Xiao family.

"You want to buy a mid-level Xuan-level fighting skill for 60,000?" The Jialie tribe leader beside him laughed at Xiao Zhan and raised his sign directly: "80,000."

"Ninety thousand." Xiao Zhan ignored the ridicule and said directly by holding up the sign.

"One hundred thousand." The head of the Oba family next to him also raised his sign and shouted the price.

Xiao Jun nodded secretly in his heart. He was very satisfied with this price. After all, it was just a mid-grade Xuan-level fighting skill. It was not that powerful. One hundred thousand was already a premium.

"The price has been called out as one hundred thousand! One hundred thousand for the first time. If anyone still wants this Xuan-level mid-grade fighting skill, one hundred thousand for the second time." Ya Fei's fair little hand held the auction hammer, waving it and using words to mobilize other people's emotions.

"One hundred and three thousand..."

"One hundred and thirty thousand!" Just at this moment, Yafei's hammer was about to fall. Xiao Zhan made an offer again and turned to give a provocative smile to Gale and the head of the Oba family.

Xiao Jun found it very interesting. It seemed that his achievements were still very valuable. He might be able to save some money.

"Does this mean I'm draining my own business? Exporting to sell domestically?"

Suddenly Xiao Jun reacted and thought of one thing, that is, it seemed that he had lost money by selling the Sword Lotus Fighting Skills directly last time.

"I'm inexperienced and need to learn from my mistakes." He secretly reminded himself that the Sword Lotus Fighting Technique was a combination of swordsmanship and formations.

Although this is the first fighting skill created by Xiao Jun, it is the one that took the most effort and was the most meticulously researched. Xiao Jun hopes to upgrade it in the future.

In particular, the idea of nurturing the Light Lotus Sword Embryo in the body was intended to develop a sword technique. However, Xiao Jun believed that a sword technique alone could not integrate all his knowledge and could not effectively unleash all his potential, so he no longer paid too much attention to the Light Lotus Sword Embryo technique.

However, Xiao Jun continued to hone his Sword Lotus fighting skills, using them as a trump card. He only gained a small amount of gold coins, but then Xiao Jun thought again, thinking he needed resources for cultivation and some security, so he quickly sold them. Although it was a loss, it was in his best interest at the time.

"130,000 once, 130,000 twice, 130,000 three times!"

"make a deal!"

A hammer is fixed.

Xiao Zhan obtained this mid-grade Xuan-level fighting skill, and Xiao Jun obtained a considerable sum of money.

"It seems they've really switched from exporting to selling domestically, but that's not bad at all. I'll just have to compensate them in the future." Xiao Jun breathed a sigh of relief.

If Xiao Jun handed over some fighting skills to the family, it would be difficult for him to get such a generous sum of money, because trading with the family would involve playing the favor card, and Xiao Jun would not ask for a high price, so it is almost impossible to obtain so much wealth. Therefore, it is better to switch from exports to domestic sales, which is fairer to both parties and there is no need to talk about feelings and lose money.

There were several more items up for auction, including a magic core from a second-tier earth-type monster. A magic core is an extremely concentrated energy crystal, only found within monsters. This extremely concentrated energy crystal can either be absorbed directly or refined into medicine by an alchemist. This magic core only cost 40,000 gold coins, making it a good deal.

Soon, a maid came out with a scroll.

"The Three Mountains Formation Manual is the legacy of a formation master. It contains a large number of fourth-tier formations, such as Qi Gathering Formations and Soul Trapping Formations. Mastering the Qi Gathering Formation can even increase the Dou Qi concentration of a family's clan land, accelerating cultivation. The fourth-tier Soul Trapping Formation is a formation used to combat powerful Dou Ling masters, and it also contains countless other restrictions. Everyone, begin the auction!"

"The starting price is 50,000, and each bid must not be less than 10,000!"

The fourth-level formation generally corresponds to the first level of Dou Ling. If a fourth-level formation master prepares the formation, he can easily strangle a fourth-level monster.

"One hundred thousand!" Xiao Jun's eyes widened when he saw the auction item. This was exactly what he needed! He raised his sign and shouted out a high price of one hundred thousand.
