In Luofu Fang City, the reputation of Zhenbao Pavilion is almost astonishing.
Lin Ji just asked someone for directions, and was looked at with a surprised look on his face, as if he didn't know what the location of Zhenbao Pavilion was.
Soon, Lin Ji arrived outside the gate of Zhenbao Pavilion due east of Fangshi.
The east side of Luofu Fang City was obviously much more prosperous than the direction from which they entered Fang City.
The shops on both sides of the road have basically become small buildings instead of bungalows, and the Zhenbao Pavilion is an exaggerated six stories high.
But other than that, Lin Ji couldn't see any tricks.
He has been to Taiyifang and Tianjing City.
Looking at Luofu Fang City, there is actually nothing strange about it.
Entering the Treasure Pavilion, the first floor is where some ordinary items are sold.
They are mostly low-grade elixirs, various magical weapons, and some not-so-rare alchemy and weapon refining materials.
In addition, on the other side of the first floor, there are several stalls that deal with Kanyu Feng Shui and array formations.
"It's all-encompassing, everything you need is there." Lin Ji thought to himself.
At this moment, someone suddenly came towards Lin Ji.
"This friend looks strange. Does he want to buy something?" A waiter came up to him.
"I made some gains outside. People say that the Zhenbao Pavilion in Luofu Fang City is the most trustworthy, so I thought of selling the things I had no use for."
"It is sold on the third floor. If it is just for appraisal, you need to pay one-tenth of the value of the item to be appraised." The clerk said.
Just the palms and eyes will get 10% of the benefits.
You can clearly rob it, but you still call it appraisal.
Lin Ji was speechless secretly, and then asked: "I heard that Zhenbao Pavilion collects other people's treasures at 80% of the market price, leaving 20% of the profit for itself. Is this true?"
"Yes, this has been the rule of Zhenbao Pavilion for many years and it has never changed." The clerk nodded.
Lin Ji had a smile on his face.
"Then if the treasure is too precious and I don't recognize it, will you deceive me and take my treasure away at a low price?"
As soon as he said this, the guy's expression suddenly changed.
But before the waiter could speak, a middle-aged man not far away walked over quickly.
"If my friend doesn't believe it, you can go to another place to sell it." The middle-aged man had a bit of dissatisfaction on his face, but he still cupped his hands towards Lin Ji, "I'm in charge of Zhenbao Pavilion, Yu Dongzhi."
After introducing himself, Yu Dongzhi obviously had no intention of recognizing Lin Ji and did not wait for him to introduce himself.
"The Zhenbao Pavilion has been the property of the Yu family for hundreds of years. You can ask in Luofu Fang City to see if our Zhenbao Pavilion has ever deceived guests."
Lin Ji's smile became even brighter.
"It's Lin who is ignorant. Don't blame me for being in charge...I'm going to the third floor to take a look."
"Please." Yu Dongzhi nodded and got out of the way.
Just when Lin Ji reached the stairs, he heard the sound coming from behind.
"Boss, that kid thinks too highly of himself. Our Zhenbaoge family has a great business, so there is no need to be greedy for his little things."
"Oh, all the poor casual cultivators are like this. They pick up some rags and find treasures. How many people are there?"
The voices of the waiter and Manager Yu were very low, but naturally they could not be hidden from Lin Ji's ears.
He didn't care and continued to walk upstairs quickly.
When we arrived at the second floor of Zhenbao Pavilion, the layout was no different from the first floor, but the things were obviously on a higher level.
However, Lin Ji lost interest after just one glance and quickly reached the third floor.
As soon as they reached the third floor, a maid came to greet them.
"Sir, the T-shaped room is still vacant."
Lin Ji thanked him and followed the direction pointed by the maid, and soon arrived outside the D-shaped room.
After knocking on the door and hearing a reply from inside, Lin Ji opened the door and walked in.
The layout of the room was extremely simple, with a table facing him in the middle, an old man sitting behind the table, and an empty chair on the other side of the table.
There is a curtain behind the old man, which seems to lead to somewhere else.
After Lin Ji walked into the room, he closed the door behind him.
"Is it appraisal or sale? Appraisal fee is 10%. If it is for sale, buy it at 80% price without appraisal fee." The old man said.
"You haven't asked for advice yet?"
"Just call me Hou Lao."
Lin Ji nodded, took down the cloth package he had prepared on the way here, and then opened the package.
What was inside was what he had gained in Qingzhou, including the elixirs that Ah Lu and Ah Zi had found, as well as a magic weapon, a soul-calling flag, and a ring.
"Young man, there are quite a lot of things." Mr. Hou was a little surprised. He originally thought it was just a small fuss, but the things in front of him were already valuable.
"Kongyoucao, Mingyanguo... Is this old mountain ginseng? Oh, it has been two hundred years old and has become a panacea. Not bad."
Mr. Hou obviously had real talent and knowledge. In just a moment, he identified all the elixirs in the package.
"The quality of these elixirs is neither high nor low, but unexpectedly they are in excellent quality. I guess my little brother is also a person who understands the art of vegetation and knows how to get the medicine without damaging its spirituality, so the price can be increased a little."
"These elixirs are priced at 28,000 yuan crystals, how about it?" Hou Lao raised his head and looked at Lin Ji, "I will have people deliver the specific price of each elixir later. Zhenbao Pavilion is an honest man. I won’t lie to you.”
"I have no objection. Let's take a look at these two magical weapons."
There was a bit of a smile on Mr. Hou's face.
Every time he makes a business, he also benefits. Large transactions of tens of thousands of yuan crystals are not common.
He first picked up the soul-calling flag and took a look at it, his expression suddenly changed slightly, and then he raised his head to look at Lin Ji.
"This is the magical weapon called the Soul-Calling Flag. Where did the little brother come from?"
"You got it by killing an evil cultivator." Lin Ji said.
"You are a good man for heaven, little brother." Hou Lao nodded, and then picked up the ring.
It's just that this time, his appraisal took a lot longer, and he couldn't get a result after looking at it for a long time.
"Forgive me for my blindness, the material of this ring is obviously a treasure, but no matter how much I use my spiritual power to activate it, I can't see any clues..."
"The soul-calling flag is an evil object and can only be sold for four thousand yuan crystals. As for this ring, please wait for the room to be vacated and go to the room for appraisal."
Lin Ji was also a little surprised by these words.
After the ring fell into his hands, he couldn't tell any clues, but he thought it was just his limited knowledge.
Unexpectedly, even the people who specialize in appraisals have no clue.
"It doesn't matter, I don't have any objection to the previous price. I'll go outside and wait for room A. Thank you, old man." Lin Ji picked up the ring and stood up.
"You're welcome, little brother." Mr. Hou smiled.
After leaving the T-shaped room, Lin Ji returned to the entrance of the third floor, and then under the guidance of the maid, found a place to sit down and wait.
