After leaving the mining area, Mu Ningshuang and Mu Xiaoling, who followed Yunyan back to the mansion, remained silent. Although Mu Xiaoling wanted to say something several times, she still held back because Rhonda was beside her. .
Yunyan was thinking about what happened in the mining area along the way, so he didn't notice anything unusual about the Mu sisters.
After they all returned to the mansion, Mu Ningshuang excused herself that she felt a little unwell and wanted to go back to her room to rest early. Only then did Yun Yan realize what she was doing, so he explained to Mu Xiaoling.
"You go take care of your sister first. I will call you if something happens."
Mu Xiaoling nodded slightly when she heard this, and left with Mu Ningshuang without saying anything more.
Rhonda and Yunyan went together to receive the special envoys sent by the auction house.
However, when the two of them arrived outside the living room door, they heard a burst of shouting from inside.
"Go and call your boss. We have been waiting here for a long time. That girl named Zhou doesn't take us seriously!"
"I would like to report to you two adults that the owner of our farm is not in the house. She went out a month ago and has not come back yet."
"Then why didn't you tell us earlier and let us wait here blindly for a long time? Are you tired of living?"
After hearing what the special envoy said, the servant immediately knelt down and begged for mercy.
"Two adults, please calm down. This is what the leader of the mining area, Mr. Langda, ordered me to do. He should be here soon. Please wait a moment."
Just listen to the envoy say impatiently.
"Gungun, go and ask him to come see me."
Afterwards, the servant quickly exited the hall, but when he turned around, he saw Rhonda and Yun Yan standing outside the door.
So, he hurriedly stepped forward, and just as he was about to speak, he saw Rhonda wave her hand and say.
"Go down."
"yes."
After the servants left, Rhonda and Yun Yan entered the living room. They saw these two people dressed gorgeously and with extraordinary bearing. The person who spoke showed an arrogant and luxurious aura in every gesture and gesture.
When they saw Rhonda and Yun Yan entering the living room, they did not stand up to greet them, but sat motionless. The silent man among them sat directly on the main seat in the living room and tasted tea carefully, without even bothering to raise his eyelids. one time.
"I told you that your Beishan Mine is so outrageous that you asked our two special envoys to wait for you here for a long time. I think if you plan to consign things in the future, shouldn't you pay more handling fees?"
Faced with the special envoy's arrogant questions, Rhonda immediately said with a smile.
"I'm really sorry for keeping you two adults waiting for so long. It's just because some accidents suddenly happened in our mining area that we were delayed. I hope you two adults can forgive me."
"Accident? What happened?"
At this time, the middle-aged man sitting at the main seat sipping tea asked. Rhonda heard the words and answered with a smile.
"I haven't asked my lord yet, who are you?"
"My name is Zhu Liren, and he is Chang Yukun. On the order of Manager Su, we went to the mining area in advance to check the reserves and quality of the lumen stone, so that we can go back and continue to negotiate the future trade agreement. However, you just said that there was an accident in the mining area. What happened? thing?"
Hearing Zhu Liren's introduction, Langda was shocked, because Langda had already heard about what he said about Manager Su, but this lumen stone was not a raw material for gold casting, nor was it a rare ore, so how could it alarm the director of the auction house? Su Xuan came in person?
Could it be that this lumen stone has some other uses, or is this vein of mineral found by a master refiner and wants to use it as a refining material for magic weapons?
In just this moment, Rhonda had gone through all the possible functions of the Lumen Stone in his mind, but he answered calmly.
"It's not an important matter. It's just that a few mine slaves died. I don't know where Manager Su is now. I want to go and greet her in person."
"That's not necessary. Manager Su went directly to Chunyi Pavilion to find your master. As for us, we also came under orders. If Manager Su hadn't specially told me, I wouldn't have bothered to come to this dark place like yours."
Chang Yukun on the side said impatiently.
When Rhonda heard this, he felt a little unhappy, but he didn't dare to get angry, because although Su Xuan in the auction house was a prostitute, few people in this third heaven dared not give her face, so Rhonda finally had to Said with a dry smile.
"In that case, would you like to ask if you two have a warrant from our boss if you want to enter the mining area?"
"What warrant?"
Chang Yukun asked with a look of indifference.
Rhonda replied with some embarrassment.
"Anyone who wants to enter the mining area under our jurisdiction must obtain the permission of the Headmaster or Miss Zhou. You just said that Director Su has approached our Headmaster, so you must have obtained his consent. In that case , the boss should hand over the pass warrant to you."
Hearing Langda's words, Chang Yukun's face darkened, and he only heard him say sternly.
"Langda, you are so brave. If people from our auction house want to come and see the goods, they don't need tokens. It should be noted that your owner Zhou Cang has to look at the face of our manager Su, so who do you think you are?" How dare you ask me for some bullshit warrant!"
Seeing Chang Yukun's sudden anger, Langda was a little at a loss. Although he was in charge of the first mining area, compared with the special envoys at the auction house, he was not at the same level at all.
Moreover, just as a cultivator, judging from the domineering aura Chang Yukun deliberately displayed, his cultivation level is definitely not lower than the second level of martial arts.
Just when Langda was in a dilemma, Yun Yan on the side stepped forward and respectfully clasped his fists and said to Zhu Liren.
"Both of you, please calm down. The two adults must have left in a hurry, and the head master didn't have time to hand over the order to you. I will send someone to ask the head master for instructions on this matter later.
It's just that ten slaves have just been killed in our mining area, and we are now sending people to search for the murderer in the mining area. Therefore, it may be inappropriate for the two of you to enter the mining area now. "
"What did you say......"
Chang Yukun was slightly startled when he saw Yun Yan, and then he opened his mouth to scold him, but at this time, Zhu Liren raised his hand to interrupt him.
"Deacon Chang, we are indeed in the wrong, so there is no need for you to be angry."
Then, he turned to Yun Yan and smiled.
"Excuse me, who are you?"
"Xia Yunyan is Zhou Ying's friend. Ying'er is indeed not in the mining area now. Because similar things happened in other mining areas before, she left a month ago."
"Oh I got it."
Zhu Liren could tell just from the name Yun Yan used for Zhou Ying in this sentence that his relationship with Zhou Ying was extraordinary, so in his opinion, this young man was at least qualified to talk to them.
Chang Yukun on the side looked at Yun Yan with contempt and disdain in his eyes, because in his eyes, Yun Yan was just a male favorite that Zhou Ying had found. No wonder he looked so evil.
Immediately, Zhu Liren continued.
"We came here just to explore the mineral veins. Besides, we have cooperated before, so the Lumen Stone is not a secret. If Manager Su hadn't specially told us, Deacon Chang and I wouldn't have to go there in person. Come."
Hearing this, Yun Yan replied with a smile.
"Of course, we provide lumen stones of different purity and you are responsible for selling them. This is a very fair transaction. Naturally, there is no need for the special envoy to come personally to supervise the purity of the minerals, right?"
When Yun Yan finished these words, Zhu Liren's expression suddenly became solemn, because he never expected that the seemingly superficial young man in front of him actually understood the concept that minerals have different purity levels.
Chang Yukun also noticed something strange about Zhu Liren, but he was not as sensitive as Zhu Liren to minerals and other related things, so he looked at Zhu Liren with a puzzled face.
At this time, Zhu Liren tentatively asked Yun Yan.
"What are the levels of mineral purity?"
"The best, the next, and the next five."
"How is each purity measured?"
"The breath of mineral veins.
"
"Can you feel the breath of the mineral vein?"
"It seems possible."
"Are you a weapon refiner?"
"no."
Zhu Liren asked questions continuously, and Yun Yan answered fluently without any hesitation on his part, which surprised Chang Yukun and Langda who were present.
You must know that a middle-grade treasure master can almost walk sideways below the third level of the sky, and Zhu Liren is a junior treasure master, so he is qualified to become the permanent deacon of the auction house.
Chang Yukun never dared to complain about Zhu Liren's status second only to Su Xuan in the auction house. Even though Zhu Liren's cultivation level was only the first level of martial arts, Chang Yukun had already mastered it more than ten years ago. He has already broken through the second level of martial arts, but he still has to be respectful to Zhu Liren. This is the strength of an weapon refiner.
As for the currently famous weapon refiners in the Third Heaven, most of them have been taken under the command of Tianque and serve in the Gold Casting City. Among them, the two strongest middle-grade treasure masters are the inner sect elders of Tianque.
Of course, Yun Yan didn't know this, but when he discovered that Zhu Liren seemed to have changed his previous arrogant attitude because of his understanding of minerals, Yun Yan probably guessed the reason.
So, he smiled lightly.
"Master Zhu, could he be a weapon refiner?"
At this time, Chang Yukun on the side spoke first.
"That's right, Deacon Zhu is a junior treasure master. At the same time, he is also the general person in charge of all exchanges in our auction house. In the auction house, except for the resident elder of Tianque and the director Su Xuan, everything is in charge. Follow Deacon Zhu’s arrangements.”
Only then did Rhonda realize that Chang Yukun's attitude towards them had changed. To be precise, his attitude towards Yun Yan was no longer so arrogant and rude.
Of course, Rhonda didn't know the true details of Yun Yan. He only knew that Miss Zhou liked Yun Yan very much, but other than that, he knew nothing.
Zhu Liren said very modestly at this time.
"Manager Mengsu appreciates that Zhu is not talented and has been helping her manage trivial matters at the auction house. However, in my opinion, Mr. Yun's understanding of the mineral veins is much more than that. I must be hiding his clumsiness on purpose. Since you are unwilling to admit it, I don't like forcing things on others.
But I can now make a promise to Mr. Yun on behalf of the auction house. If one day you are willing to join our auction house, we will be very welcome. "
Hearing this, Rhonda couldn't believe his ears. He really couldn't imagine that with Zhu Liren's status, he would send a sincere invitation to Yun Yan so directly, and the reason for doing so was just because he was talking to Yun Yan. A conjecture drawn.
However, what surprised him even more was Yun Yan's respectful and humble answer.
"Thank you, Deacon Zhu, for your kindness. I don't plan to leave here yet."
Zhu Liren couldn't help but asked curiously.
"Is it because of Zhou Ying?"
Hearing this, Yun Yan neither nodded nor denied, but just smiled.
Zhu Liren sighed immediately.
"I made a mistake."
