The method of "wiping one's butt" chosen by Zhong Xuan Sheng was simple and very effective.
That is to find another reasonable reason for Jiang Wang's life span to be fulfilled.
Zhongxuansheng was very efficient and quickly selected a "singing and selling" activity.
Song sales are generally divided into "official sales" and "charity sales". The former is usually the government's auction of criminal property to subsidize government revenue. The latter usually raises money for disaster relief. Qi State's business is prosperous, and "merchandising" is also very popular.
"Shanghai" is held purely for profit, which is very despised by some old-fashioned Confucians and Legalists. But it was the emergence of "merchants" that made "singing and selling" really popular.
Driven by profit, this is also the essence of business.
The so-called "Before singing three times, the price should be increased." and "Before singing three times, the price should be increased." (1) are talking about the rules of singing and selling, which is also the origin of the name "selling and selling".
As long as there are no "three chants", you can increase the price to participate in the transaction, and after three chants, the transaction will be completed.
The organizer of this singing and selling event is Baobao Pavilion, which is headquartered in the offshore islands. It is said that it has branches in many places. It is mainly engaged in the sale of various treasures, and also engages in singing, selling and pawn business.
In Qi State, the singing and selling activities under the Four Seas Merchant Alliance and even the Jubao Chamber of Commerce are much more powerful than the Baibao Pavilion. But the reason why Zhongxuansheng chose Baibao Pavilion was naturally because it did not belong to the above two. His "hands and feet" are also less likely to be discovered.
Chong Xuan Sheng's operation is very simple. He sent someone to disguise his identity and consign the "longevity treasure" at the Baibao Pavilion. Of course it is fake, but the forgery is very real. At least based on the appearance, it is difficult to see. come out.
Then he bought it during the singing and selling process, going in with his left hand and out with his right hand, using the non-existent "longevity treasure" to make Jiang Wang's life span perfect and reasonable.
Just by changing hands this time, Baibao Pavilion will take away a lot of money, but it is still worth it in exchange for Tian Anping's peace and tranquility.
Moreover, Chong Xuan Sheng had just made a bigger deal from the Bao family, so he didn't care much about it.
In the whole process, the buyer is real, the seller is real, the process of buying and selling is also real, only the selling is fake.
Of course, Baibao Pavilion would be happy to have a longevity-enhancing treasure join the singing and selling. It can not only improve the level of singing and selling, but they can also gain something from it.
Jiang Wang and Zhong Xuansheng were sitting in a private room, observing the items for sale through a huge water-moon mirror. For "big customers" with strong financial resources, Jubao Pavilion had someone guarding the door to help them participate in the sale at any time.
The Water Moon Mirror is a magic weapon used to reflect distant views. Because of its level, it is easily disturbed by Taoism, so it is of little use in war. But as a small item in life, it is still very useful. The size of this kind of magic weapon is usually very small. The larger it is, the harder it is to keep it clear and the more expensive it is.
The effect is very similar to the red makeup mirror, but there is definitely a world of difference in level. At least I have never been disturbed when using the red makeup mirror.
The person who presided over the singing and selling was a beauty invited from Sanfenxianglou.
The four famous museums will not let their beauties "appear" easily, and the price of their appearance is very expensive.
Sanfenxiang Tower is actually not cheap, but it is indeed a bit weaker in Qi State. It's probably because I use this kind of activity to show off my beauty, which seems a bit low-end in comparison, but there is nothing I can do about it.
In order to prevent someone from competing at all costs, increase his spending. The life-enhancing treasures faked by Chong Xuan Sheng are the most common ones on the market. Those who can afford to buy the life-enhancing treasures have basically already used them, so they cannot command a high price.
Only the longevity pills and longevity fruits that Jiang Wang had taken were skipped and tailored to Jiang Wang's "needs".
Baibao Pavilion was born in an offshore archipelago, and there were many strange things. But there are very few things that are truly valuable to Jiang Wang at his current level.
The items for sale passed one by one, and Jiang Wang only used a few very rare secret techniques.
It cost less than five hundred Daoyuan stones, which was of course paid for by Chongxuan Sheng.
"This kind of Taoism is not worth it at all. It is much more expensive." Chong Xuansheng said.
Jiang Wang intended to collect these secret techniques in order to complete the unblocking of the three-story stage, and casually said: "Singing and selling will inevitably increase the price."
"No." Chong Xuan Sheng shook his head: "It's too much beyond their value. Apart from being rare, these secret techniques have no power at all."
He concluded: "Maybe more and more people know about Taiyuan."
Apart from the Taixu Illusion Stage, I really can't think of any other place that would need this secret technique. For example, a Taoist technique that can turn water red is simply sick. Did the creator do it just for the convenience of pretending to vomit blood anytime and anywhere?
This kind of Taoism is bound to be eliminated, but now it appears openly in the concert, and there are people bidding for it!
Jiang Wang is on stage, but what about the others?
Chongxuan is better than seeing the big from the small.
When the needs in the illusory realm of Taixu affect the real world. Perhaps the day when Taixu Illusion Realm is completely spread is not far away.
At this time, the waiter in charge of their private room knocked on the door: "Sir, the sale of the items you need to pay attention to has begun."
It was the "longevity-enhancing treasure" arranged by Chongxuan Sheng, the Qisuihua.
They had already seen it from the Shuiyue Mirror. Chongxuan Sheng just waved his hand: "No matter how much others bid, I will give you a thousand more Dao Yuan Stones."
The waiter at Baibao Pavilion was accustomed to being generous, but he was shocked by this gesture and was stunned for a moment before exiting.
"Twenty thousand Dao Yuan Stones!"
"Twenty-one thousand!"
"Thirty thousand! Thirty thousand Dao Yuan Stones!"
"Thirty-one thousand, the distinguished guest in Tianzi Room A will raise the price again without hesitation!"
"Fifty thousand Dao Yuan Stones!"
"Oh my god, fifty-one thousand. According to legend, the seven-tasseled flower blooms in seven autumns and robs eight years of spring! I wonder who can pick such beauty, let's wait and see!"
The voice of the beauty in Sanfenxianglou echoed in the room through the sound transmission stone, while her beauty was reflected in the water-moon mirror.
The seven-tassel flower is placed in a crystal vase, which will not affect the observation and preserve the medicinal effect well. Bright yellow, full and full of vitality.
The specifications of this singing and selling are not very high, but the existence of the longevity-enhancing treasure Seven Spike Flowers may attract some wealthy customers.
Chongxuansheng naturally occupies Tianzijiafang and is very wealthy.
After a while, the waiter wiped his sweat and knocked on the door: "Sir, there are already 200,000 Dao Yuan Stones! Do you want to add more?"
Chong Xuan Sheng acted very wealthy: "Have I ever set a limit with you?"
"I know!" The waiter hurriedly bowed his head and went out.
The Baibao Pavilion did not know that the Qijuihua was fake, except for the master who had been bribed by Zhongxuan Sheng and was responsible for identifying the Qijuihua. The risk to people is not high, because this fake product has no owner.
Qishuihua has a nice name, but it is actually a life-enhancing medicine cultivated in the Dongwang Valley medicine garden. The effect is very average. The reputation it has today is due to Dongwang Valley’s good publicity. The phrase "flowers bloom for seven autumns and bear fruit for eight years" is a beautiful statement, but it has indeed become one of the biggest sources of income in Dongwang Valley.
Two hundred thousand Dao Yuan Stones were much more than the value of Qishuihua itself, so the waiter from Baibao Pavilion came to remind him.
Of course Baibao Pavilion wants to make more money, but it also depends on who the target is. It's great to kill young men's pockets, but I'm afraid these young men will feel unhappy and get into trouble. Therefore, people who have been in business for a long time know how to stop when enough is enough.
But since they had already reminded that Chong Xuan Sheng still insisted on "fighting for wealth", it was impossible to blame them anymore.

ps:
It is said that this sentence comes from the "Law of Ten Friends", but I have not found the full text of "Law of Ten Friends", so I cannot be sure whether it is true or false.
However, the "Chanyuan Qinggui" of the Northern Song Dynasty contains the rule of "singing clothes", that is, singing and selling monks' clothes. It can be seen that auctions have existed in ancient China, and it does not violate the ancient customs if they appear in it.
Since Chixin is an imaginary world, my writing is not a historical textual research article, so I don’t spend too much time on textual research.
