Beauty and the Bodyguard

Finally, after a whole day of intense auctions, the four-island auction came to an end until sunset. All the lots provided by the Chamber of Commerce have been auctioned off. However, this does not mean that the auction is over. On the contrary, This is just the first part of the auction.

Starting from the next day, there will be a personal auction. Every participant who comes to North Island and has good things in their hands can put them up for auction. All kinds of unheard of and unseen rare treasures will surface at that time.

However, as far as today's auction is concerned, the more than one hundred top-quality elixirs that Lin Yi personally refined have unsurprisingly become the most critical and eye-catching finale of the entire auction!

Even if the grade of the best elixir is not high, it is a strategic-level elixir that only the core disciples of the super power have the right to enjoy. It is difficult for ordinary people to even see it.

Counting the ten from the Nakajima Pill Hall and other major chambers of commerce, the total number of top-quality pills in the Four Islands auction has reached an unprecedented one hundred and thirty, and 80% of them are from Hong Chamber of Commerce!

A group of three, a group of five, or even a group of ten. Each group of top-quality elixirs inevitably becomes a bomb that detonates the auction, constantly setting new transaction price records.

These astronomical figures that make people feel thirsty when listening to them, truly explain the same concept to everyone, what is price but no market!

In the end, Hong's Chamber of Commerce had a great harvest. With Lin Yi's more than one hundred top-quality elixirs alone, the final total transaction price reached one million spiritual jade, which was simply jaw-dropping!

At this price, on average, almost every top-quality elixir is worth more than 10,000 spiritual jade, which is an unimaginable miracle in normal times.

When Lin Yi sold the top-quality Foundation-Building Barrier-Breaking Pill to the Hong Chamber of Commerce, the discount was only eight hundred spirit jade, but here it was more than ten times higher. It has to be said that in an auction like this, it really turned out that There are many people who are stupid and clever. No wonder so many super chambers of commerce regard this auction as a must for military strategists, racking their brains and being ambitious.

No matter what, after this battle, Hong's Chamber of Commerce can be truly proud. From the beginning, when everyone joined forces to target them in every possible way, to today's great harvest, Hong's Chamber of Commerce fought beautifully in this turnaround battle. And its far-reaching significance is far from as simple as earning millions of spiritual jade.

Without these more than 100 top-quality elixirs, this Four Islands Auction, under the joint attack of many super chambers of commerce such as Rich City and Wantong Shenghui, is very likely to become the Waterloo of the Hong Chamber of Commerce, and then be divided up by others. Disintegration, this kind of thing is not impossible, but extremely possible.

But now that they have done this, Hong's Chamber of Commerce has not only eliminated the crisis of success, but also successfully stood firm. Even the capital to wait for opportunities to counterattack has been put in place. Next, it will turn from defense to offense. If it is handled properly, it will not only not You will suffer losses, but you can take the opportunity to go further and launch an attack on the Five Elements Pharmacy, which is number one in the business alliance!

In all of this, Lin Yi can be said to have made the greatest contribution. It is no exaggeration to say that for the Hong Chamber of Commerce, Lin Yi is the great benefactor who turned the tide from collapse!

"Young Master Lin, I will never forget this great kindness!" Even a mature and prudent man like Hong Zhong couldn't help but be overjoyed when he looked at the accounts and bowed to Lin Yi repeatedly.

This time, Lin Yi not only saved the Hong Chamber of Commerce, but more importantly, he also saved Hong Zhong. Otherwise, if Lin Yi had not taken action, Hong Zhong would have become the scapegoat pushed by the top management to take the blame.

"Shopkeeper Hong is serious. We have cooperated sincerely for so long. To help you is to help myself. It would be too unreasonable to say anything about kindness or not." Lin Yi quickly helped him up.

Hong Zhong waved his hand and shook his head and said: "Cooperation is cooperation, and kindness is kindness. I can still understand this. This time, I will not say thank you for your kindness. I will remember it in my heart."

Seeing that Hong Zhong insisted on this, Lin Yi could only let him go, nodded and said: "Forget it, there will be many places where we need to rely on Shopkeeper Hong in the future, let's live a long life together."

Hong Zhong chuckled, stroking his beard and said: "It's easy to say, whatever the instructions of Young Master Lin, I will go through fire and water without hesitation. However, this time, Young Master Lin is not only a personal favor to me, but also a great favor to the entire Hong Chamber of Commerce. I The senior management must express their opinions.”

"This... shouldn't be necessary, right?" Lin Yi was a little worried. If Hong Zhong really said this to the senior officials of the Hong Chamber of Commerce, wouldn't he mean to repay a favor, which would be a bit inappropriate.

Hong Zhong was an experienced man and noticed Lin Yi's concerns, so he immediately smiled and said: "Don't worry, Young Master Lin, we are talking about kindness in private, but businessmen have always pursued profit, and there has always been only business cooperation, but there is no such thing as kindness, so this You must treat it as a business once. You helped the Hong Chamber of Commerce resolve such a big crisis. It is natural to ask for a reward. No one can criticize it. Time will be wasted over time, so you must think carefully about asking for it. What kind of reward would be enough.”

This truth is not difficult to understand. Lin Yi and Hong Zhong can have a relationship of kindness, but the Hong Chamber of Commerce may not pay attention to this. Due to emotions and reasons, Lin Yi still has to get substantial benefits as soon as possible.

However, Lin Yi couldn't think of any benefits for a while, and immediately asked for advice: "What kind of specific reward can you give me, shopkeeper Hong?"

"In my opinion, there are only two kinds. One is to ask for spiritual jade directly. With Lin Shaoxia's contribution this time, not only will all the proceeds from the auction belong to Lin Shaoxia, but it is not an exaggeration to ask for a reward of hundreds of thousands of spiritual jade. This is real It has real benefits, is simple and affordable, is Lin Shaoxia interested?" Hong Zhong asked tentatively.

"What about the second type?" Lin Yi asked instead. The reward of hundreds of thousands of spiritual jade is indeed exciting, but for Lin Yi, as long as he has the divine pesticide cauldron to make elixirs, no matter how many spiritual jade he gets in the future, It can be earned, so the appeal is not that great.

"As for the second option, it sounds a bit false at first. That is to take the opportunity to gain a position within the Hong Chamber of Commerce. However, Lin Shaoxia, you are an outsider after all. No matter how great your credit is this time, it is impossible to give you real power. The position is at best a false title, for example, this time we can try to win the title of honorary vice president." Hong Zhong said with a profound smile.

"Honorary Vice President? Isn't this a bit exaggerated?" Lin Yi's eyelids twitched.

Hong Zhong shook his head and said: "It's not an exaggeration, it's not an exaggeration at all. Lin Shaoxia, your great kindness to the Hong Chamber of Commerce this time is comparable to a life-saving grace. You want the title of honorary vice president. Is this an exaggeration? Although the name is The title is scary, but in the end it’s just a false title without power.”
