Entering the main hall, you will see several passages with signs hanging respectively: Qi Refining, Foundation Building, Golden Pill, Nascent Soul, Consignment, and Mystery.
This is probably the different level areas introduced before, but what does this mystery mean?
Seeing the doubt on Zhang Xiaosheng's face, the middle-aged man No. 999 quickly stepped forward and said:
"Senior, this mysterious area contains some items that are difficult to grade or are extremely rare. Many senior monks also like to participate in the auctions here, and mysterious treasures often appear."
Zhang Xiaosheng curled his lips, and he didn't have clairvoyance. If he relied solely on financial resources, it would be unrealistic to take good pictures with his three melons and two dates, and he would casually miss the plot that was only in the film.
But seeing this, Zhang Xiaosheng remembered that he only had high-grade spiritual stones, and they were produced by the system. He didn't know if they were suitable for trading, so he asked:
"I need to buy some items for the Qi Refining Stage and Foundation Establishment Stage for the disciples of the sect. I don't know if I need to exchange them for some mid- to low-grade spiritual stones."
The middle-aged man was overjoyed. It looked like a big deal. He took the opportunity to test it out:
"I don't know whether the senior purchased it in small quantities or in bulk. If it is a large transaction, there is no need to exchange it."
"Hmm." Zhang Xiaosheng didn't answer, paused slightly, and then asked:
"These high-grade spiritual stones of mine are of relatively good quality. Wouldn't it be difficult to calculate if they were traded directly?"
The middle-aged man was startled, then replied:
"That's really inconvenient. If that's the case, seniors should exchange it first and then use it."
Zhang Xiaosheng thought so, so he said:
"It doesn't matter, then just lead the way."
The middle-aged man quickly turned in from the right side of the hall, and Zhang Xiaosheng followed. Sure enough, he came to a place with a sign that said "Exchange Spiritual Stones." The middle-aged man stepped forward to get the number plate, returned and handed it to Zhang Xiaosheng and said:
"Senior, exchanging spirit stones is a secret, so juniors cannot follow. Seniors, please go in by yourself. There will be independent cubicles, and there are also shielding formations in the compartments. If someone is spied on, an alarm will sound. Of course, this situation will basically not happen. Appear."
Zhang Xiaosheng nodded, the service of Huanyue City is really nothing to say.
According to the number on the number plate, Zhang Xiaosheng entered a small cubicle. There were people waiting inside. Because it was a high-grade spiritual stone exchange, the monk who responded to Zhang Xiaosheng was also at the first level of the Golden Core.
Zhang Xiaosheng didn't say much, and directly took out 00 high-grade spiritual stones produced by the system and handed them over.
The golden elixir monk made a slight investigation, his expression was a bit shocked, he raised his head and looked at Zhang Xiaosheng for a moment, and said:
"The quality of your spiritual stone is too high, and it is beyond the scope of what I can handle. Please wait a moment."
After saying that, he did not take away the bag of spiritual stones. He stood up and poured a cup of spiritual tea for Zhang Xiaosheng, then turned and walked towards the back door.
Another detail, Zhang Xiaosheng was very satisfied, and while drinking tea, he sat quietly and waited.
In less than a stick of incense, another old man came out of the back door. Zhang Xiaosheng sensed for a moment that he was at the eighth level of the golden elixir. He was slightly shocked. The strength of the auction house in Huanyue City is really not to be underestimated. The eighth level of the golden elixir. In the former Five Elements Sect, this was the unique first combat force, but here he is just a senior window staff member.
Of course, this is related to the high quality of his top-grade spiritual stones, but it is also enough to illustrate the strength reserves of this auction house.
The old man found that he could not detect Zhang Xiaosheng's aura, and his expression instantly became more respectful, saying:
"Please wait a moment, distinguished guest, while I conduct a little investigation."
"please."
The bag of spirit stones was still placed in its previous position. Zhang Xiaosheng made a gesture of invitation with his right hand and continued to sip tea.
After just a few breaths, the old man put down the bag and sighed:
"I have been engaged in spiritual stone exchange for nearly a hundred years, and I have never seen a high-grade spiritual stone of such purity. If this... distinguished guest is not in a hurry, I suggest that he sell it on consignment and auction it, and the profit will be even more considerable."
When high-grade spiritual stones reach such a level, their own value is not the most important. If it is auctioned, there will indeed be some people who are curious about collecting it, and there will also be people who want to better assist in realm breakthroughs. Of course, for the auction house, it can enrich The types of goods at the auction will also be helpful in increasing the popularity.
Zhang Xiaosheng naturally knew that the auction was something that was beneficial to both parties, but he had set a goal of not being too eventful before entering the city. Although the auction would definitely result in more exchanges, it was meaningless to him. He did not want to make a name for himself. , Er was not seeking money, but was anxious to return to the sect, so he refused:
"Thank you for your kindness, Brother Dao. I'm just in a hurry, so the auction is still..."
The old man pondered slightly and said:
"I have one more question. If it is inconvenient, my distinguished guest may not answer."
"Excuse me."
"I wonder where this spiritual stone comes from?"
Zhang Xiaosheng blurted out without any hesitation:
"It's not inconvenient. The elders in the family accidentally found it in a secret place and gave it to me."
The old man's face lit up, it seemed that he still had something to do, so he said:
"I wonder what the stock is at your elder's place?"
Zhang Xiaosheng frowned slightly and looked at the old man with a somewhat unhappy look on his face.
The old man quickly explained:
"Dear guest, please calm down. I saw that the quality of these spirit stones is almost perfect. I think no one else has ever seen it, so I had an idea just now. If the elders of your family still have some stocks and are willing to exchange them, we might as well cooperate with you on a long-term basis and serve as a small agent in my auction house." A small highlight, of course I can make the decision to waive the consignment fee for the distinguished guest. You are only seeking fame, not profit."
The old man spoke frankly. Zhang Xiaosheng thought for a moment. He could use the reputation value to greatly improve the quality of high-grade spiritual stones. A high-grade spiritual stone would increase reputation. The price was not expensive, but it was just a bit troublesome. And there were so many perfect quality high-grade spiritual stones. If the stone flows into the world of immortality, will there be any problems?
Thinking of this, Zhang Xiaosheng said tentatively:
"The elders in the family don't seem to have much left. If it weren't for the urgent need for spiritual stones, I wouldn't have planned to exchange them. However, this matter still needs to be decided by the elders, and I can't make the decision."
The old man smiled slightly and said:
"Don't worry, as long as the distinguished customer is willing to give it a try, these old spirit stones can be purchased at double the price of ordinary high-grade spiritual stones. You will also be given a distinguished guest token from the auction house. Everything purchased in the auction house will be discounted by 10%. Consignment items All handling fees are discounted by 30%, and you don’t need to pay entry fees even if you don’t shop.”
The price seems a bit high...
But Zhang Xiaosheng knew in his heart that these were all illusions. The price was said to have doubled. One hundred high-grade spiritual stones could be exchanged for 20,000 mid-grade ones. However, he had also exchanged it before when he bought the beast pill in Shendan City, and it was almost higher. The normal price is 60% to 70%, which means that although the old man said it was a double price purchase, in fact the change from 70 to 200 was only an increase of 20% at most.
As for this VIP token, it’s a complete gimmick. It looks like a 10% discount, but you can only enjoy the discount if you buy it. The more you buy, the more the auction house will naturally make, and the auction house’s profits are far greater. It's more than 10% better than the discount given to you.
The old man naturally had this in mind. The distinguished guest in front of him looked young but had a higher level than himself. The elders in the family must be very special. If he were not afraid of arousing suspicion, he would have wanted to apply for a VIP token with a 20% discount. , the auction house always tries to find ways to send VIPs and VIP tokens to these monks who seem to have a lot of money. It seems that the auction house is losing money, but the actual income will only be higher. This trick has been tried and tested for many years and has attracted many people to the auction house. Many senior monks.
Zhang Xiaosheng was still hesitating. Thinking of the previous beast elixir, his heart moved again. The golden elixir stage beast elixir can assist cultivation, and the system can improve the quality of the beast elixir. He lacked reputation before, but later he broke through to the golden elixir by accident. On the ninth floor, the three sets of animal elixirs purchased before are no longer used, but they can be upgraded to the perfect level for consignment. If this thing has no side effects, it will be much better than the best elixirs. After all, it is a golden elixir stage. The essence of the monster.
If you consign demon pills here, it will be much safer than selling them outside, and you can save a lot of spiritual stones. The main reason is that I have not guaranteed the exchange of high-grade spiritual stones, and the initiative is in my own hands. If you are familiar with the auction house, it will be easier for you to communicate with them in the future.
Thinking of this, Zhang Xiaosheng finally relaxed and said:
"Since your bank is so sincere, let's try our best after returning to the sect next time."
The old man was overjoyed and took out a storage bag, handed it to Zhang Xiaosheng with both hands and said:
"Da Shan, your guest token and 20,000 medium-grade spiritual stones have been prepared. Please count them."
Sure enough, he was prepared. Zhang Xiaosheng took the storage bag and scanned it with his consciousness. There were 20,000 medium-grade spiritual stones neatly placed inside. Of course, the quality was of the most ordinary kind. The auction house was in business after all.
There is also a token inlaid with gold in jade, with the number: 9527 written on it!
Unable to complain about this number, Zhang Xiaosheng took the token in his hand and looked at it carefully. Although gold is very valuable in the mortal world, for those who cultivate immortality, it is really no different from earth. Embellishment will only make it more gorgeous.
After the transaction was completed, the old man handed over his hand and said:
"I, Yan Song, are waiting for good news from your distinguished guest."
Good guy, he is still a traitor!
Zhang Xiaosheng returned the favor with fists clasped, and then left.
After leaving the cubicle, tour guide No. 999 was still waiting respectfully. When he saw Zhang Xiaosheng coming out, he hurriedly took a few steps forward and asked:
"Senior, is everything going well?"
Zhang Xiaosheng smiled slightly, and according to the previous agreement, he took out 20 middle-grade spiritual stones and placed them in the hands of the middle-aged man, saying:
"Let's go and take a look at the Qi Refining Period area first."
The middle-aged man was first surprised, then happy, and said quickly:
"Senior, there is no commission required for redeeming spiritual stones."
"It's okay, let's go." Zhang Xiaosheng waved his hand and walked towards the Qi refining area first.
"Thank you for the gift, senior." The middle-aged man hurriedly put away the spirit stone and followed him a few steps.
