No matter what other people ask for, a thousand Dao Yuan Stones will be added here. Such a wealthy and generous act is enough to defeat most competitors. Chongxuan Sheng used this strategy to "dissuade" other people who might be interested in Qishuihua.
When the selling price reached 300,000 Dao Yuan Stones, the voice of the waiter outside the door suddenly sounded: "Hey, Mr. Bao, say goodbye!"
boom!
The door was kicked open and Bao Zhongqing strode into the inner room.
"Damn fat man, I knew it was you!"
The waiter at Baibao Pavilion had deliberately revealed his identity in advance to give Chongxuan Sheng time to react. It was impossible for them to stop Bao Zhongqing, so they could only remind him like this.
But Zhong Xuan Sheng didn't react. He just leaned lazily on the soft chair, not even bothering to move his buttocks. He only raised his hand: "Hello, Bao Mazi."
Bao Zhongqing was filled with anger: "Are you targeting me on purpose? Do you know I'm here? Are you disgusting with me? Are you deliberately raising my price?"
Behind him were old acquaintances Yan Er and Pingxi Shuangsha. He must have made some progress during this time. As soon as he entered the room, he looked at Jiang Wang, eager to avenge his shame.
Jiang Wang, on the other hand, was still thinking about the Taoist stage and had no time to deal with this farce. Just a firework popped up casually. The firework exploded silently in the air, but the firelight did not dissipate. Instead, it intertwined together and turned into a flame bird. The delicate and agile flame bird fluttered its wings and landed on Jiang Wang's outstretched fingers, lowering its head to follow its feathers.
Jiang Wang grabbed the flame bird with his backhand and extinguished it in his palm.
Yan Er and Ping Xi Shuangsha immediately looked away, lowered their eyebrows and acted very obediently.
Jiang Wang's control over the fire technique was astonishing. They were making progress, but Jiang Wang's progress was even more terrifying. At that time, they were able to have a few fights with Jiang Wang outside Xiashan Mountain, but now I'm afraid they are no longer qualified to fight!
Before exploring the Fire Totem and practicing the Fire Source Codex, Jiang Wang did not yet have this level of control. The battle with Zuo Guangshu also inspired him a lot.
But he's just doing this to avoid trouble. He had already slapped Bao Zhongqing in the face and had no motivation to hit him again.
After showing his hand like this, he continued his thoughts.
Several hundred Dao Yuan stones were smashed down, and the secret technique obtained in exchange was only 65 points, which barely raised the total to 2,030.
But leaving aside the rarity, the quality of these secret techniques is worthless. The relevant rules of the Taixu Illusion Stage clearly encourage original techniques and secret techniques.
On the other side, the "confrontation" between Linzi's top young men is still going on.
Faced with Bao Zhongqing's aggressive attitude, Zhong Xuansheng just smiled and asked: "Can't you raise the price? Are you short of money, Mr. Bao?"
These intentionally irritating words made Bao Zhongqing calm down, especially since he had good eyesight, and he understood that Jiang Wang was stronger than last time and his men could not please him.
Of course, there was no fear on his face, he just said coldly: "It seems that this fight with Wang Yiwu has made you much richer than before. You are no longer empty-handed after participating in a singing session?"
He was poking at Chong Xuan Sheng's "old scar". Chong Xuan Sheng once participated in singing and selling. When he met something he liked, he said that he would get it, but he was knocked back with a Dao Yuan stone. That incident also became one of the clear proofs that Zhongxuan Sheng was not taken seriously.
The Bao family and the Chongxuan family have been fighting for generations, and they know how to "hurt each other".
"Four hundred thousand Dao Yuan Stones!" Bao Zhongqing shouted.
The waiter who served him immediately updated the price, and the waiter who served Zhong Xuansheng added a thousand without hesitation after taking a look at Zhong Xuansheng.
There are two types of longevity-increasing treasures, one that can transcend the life span, and one that cannot. The former is of course much more precious than the latter, and more rare.
Everyone has a limited lifespan, but due to injuries, wear and tear, etc., almost no one can live beyond it normally. Generally, life-extending treasures are actually "compensating" for life span. The same is true for the longevity pills and longevity fruits that Jiang Wang has taken.
If there is a shortfall of ten years in the life span, eating the twenty-year longevity fruit can only make up for those ten years, and it will never exceed the life span.
Seven spike flowers also belong to this category. Although it is also very precious, the current price has exceeded too much.
Occasionally something like this happens when a business is selling. The buyer gets into a fight over their wealth and spends a lot of money. What they are fighting for is face. It doesn't matter how much the thing is worth, what you want is the feeling of overwhelming your opponent.
This seems to be the case for Bao Zhongqing and Zhongxuansheng now.
But Bao Zhongqing suddenly smiled slyly: "I'll give it to you! The Chongxuan family is so rich and powerful, what's wrong with being willing to be taken advantage of? I sent people to Dongwang Valley to buy it, but it doesn't cost 200,000 Dao Yuan Stones!"
He wanted to buy Qishuihua to win over a clan elder. There are a limited number of Aesthesia flowers in Dongwang Valley every year, so of course they are not easy to buy. But for a little premium, someone will always be willing to take the plunge.
Now, it's more like taking advantage of Zhong Xuan Sheng's "fighting spirit" with him and casually tricking Zhong Xuan Sheng.
However, he didn't know that the buyers and sellers of this "Seven Spike Flowers" were both Chongxuan Sheng himself, and the actual amount of Dao Yuan Stones he had to pay was not much...
"Only you, the Bao family, care about this little money. If I like it, I will buy it. It's as simple as that. Even if the person bidding with me is a dog, I will still grab it."
Zhong Xuansheng had a calm expression on his face and said nonchalantly: "Anyway, your horse racing company just paid me a large sum of money."
Just one sentence aroused Bao Zhongqing's anger again.
Bao's horse and carriage company lost a large sum of money because Su She went crazy outside Linzi City for no apparent reason.
His expression turned completely gloomy: "It seems like you have plenty of energy now?"
At this time, the price of 400,000 Dao Yuan Stones has already ended. The ownership of "Seven Spike Flowers" was determined.
"I don't need you to bother." Zhong Xuansheng glanced at Shuiyue Jing: "Is there anything else?"
Bao Zhongqing stopped talking and walked away.
The people from Baibao Pavilion quickly packed the door and delivered the "Qisuihua".
Chong Xuansheng casually handed the "Qisuihua" to Jiang Wang, and Jiang Wang pretended to chew it a few times and swallow it.
"How is it?" Chong Xuan Sheng asked.
"The effect is very good!" Jiang Wang said with satisfaction.
In fact, it has a fart effect.
"Then let's go." Chongxuan Sheng stood up.
Ignoring the people in Baibao Pavilion, the three of them left here. Someone else will hand over the Doyuan Stone later.
In this way, Jiang Wang's life limit replenishment process is very clear and can withstand anyone's investigation. As long as there are no problems with Tian He, it should be impossible for Tian Anping to doubt him again.
Leaving Baibao Pavilion, in the carriage.
"What riddle were you playing with Bao Zhongqing just now?" Jiang Wang couldn't help but ask.
Chong Xuan Sheng looked at him in surprise: "Have you even seen it?"
Jiang Wang:......
"Is it a bit overwhelming if I beat you now?" Jiang Wang asked.
"Hahahaha." Zhongxuan Shengpi was very happy for a moment, and explained with a smile: "He was willing to help me completely clean up Zhongxuanzun's business, but the condition is that he wants a share of the pie, but I refused!"
Now that he saw the Jubao Chamber of Commerce collapse and Wang Yiwu turn to the defensive, it was too late to get involved.
Especially in Bao Zhongqing's view, Wang Yiwu can still last for a long time. But from Chong Xuan Sheng's point of view, everything is ready now and all we need is the east wind. At this time, there is no need to take risks and introduce people to share the pie. Especially the Bao family.
Jiang Wang thought thoughtfully: "Have you secretly formed an alliance?"
"How could it be! With the relationship between the two families, our alliance would be a no-brainer. It's just a tacit understanding." Chongxuan Sheng said lazily: "The two marginal figures in the past have always maintained a tacit understanding."
The carriage was driving through Linzi City, where people were coming and going, and the noisy world kept crowding into the carriage.
The carriage was quiet.
"Too slow." Chong Xuansheng said suddenly.
Jiang Wang knew what he was talking about, but remained silent.
Yes, it has been delayed for too long.
Chongxuanzun has stayed in Jixia Academy for too long!
Chongxuan Sheng handled it well, and until now he turned from defense to offense and gained the advantage, all because Chongxuan Zun could not directly intervene.
And no one can tell when he will come out.
…
"too slow."
At this time, in Xiaolianqiao, known as Baishi Street, a voice said the same thing.
The person who spoke was Zhao Xuan. He had a good beard and his youthful handsomeness could be seen in his eyebrows.
He is a doctor in the Ministry of Rites, with a high position but little power, and is in charge of official funeral matters. Generally speaking, it is to instruct officials of different ranks on the etiquette that should be followed during funerals, and sometimes to help with the funeral arrangements.
It stands to reason that with his fourth-grade official rank, all trivial matters should be left to deputy officers and subordinates. Officials at his level do not often do it themselves.
But he is different.
He works very hard. Even small matters such as longevity materials and shrouds, he often took care of them personally. I have been in the Ministry of Etiquette for so long and I have never made any mistakes.
He has made great contributions to the state of Qi. It was he who strongly advocated integrating the Yang State's national defense formation with the Qi State so that they could share weal and woe, power and blessings, and achieve "long-term peace and stability."
Not long after this was done, he moved his family to Qi State. Joined the Etiquette Department.
Judging from his official salary, Qi State treated him well. But his actual power is indeed very little, and even his subordinate officials have few who obey him. In many cases, Qi people have a sense of superiority over Yang people after all.
Many people say that the reason why Zhao Xuan is so cautious is because he is from Yangguo.
Of course there is no Yang Kingdom anymore.
The absence of Yang Guo means that he can now be a true member of Qi, gain more trust from Qi Ting...and have a chance to gain real power.
Talents like him who are less than fifty, who are young and powerful, and whose cultivation level matches his official rank, sometimes just lack opportunities.
Now many people have begun to burn his cold stove again, almost turning the cold stove into a hot stove. But he still looked conscientious.
He came to Xiaolianqiao again and personally inspected the longevity materials of the old eunuch who died in the palace the day before yesterday.
This old eunuch had little power, no one liked him when he was alive, and no one cared about him after he died. But after all, I have a duty, and the funeral has its own standards.
"Sir, it was painted last night and is just waiting for it to dry. It will be delivered soon!"
In Lao Zhang's coffin shop, Lao Zhang said flatteringly.
His voice was thin and cold, and even though he was deliberately trying to please, he didn't feel much enthusiasm.
Zhao Xuan has always been patient and very patient, but for some reason, he felt a little inexplicably uneasy today.
"Hurry!" he urged.
