Into the World of Medicine
Chapter 48 The auction ends
Chapter 48: Auction Ended As soon as Li Shuo left, Xiao Bai couldn't wait to jump out of the space. When it saw an additional medicine cauldron in the box, it nodded with satisfaction. but--
"Master, why did you use that middle-grade spiritual stone to pay for the money!" When Xiaobai mentioned this, his face was filled with distress, "What a waste!"
Murong Qingyan smiled faintly, but what she said made people crazy, "Because it's convenient."
Hearing Murong Qingyan's answer, Xiaobai felt that he didn't even know what to say.
"Okay, let's take a look at this supreme medicine cauldron!" Murong Qingyan stood up and walked directly to the medicine cauldron, "This medicine cauldron cost me a lot of money!"
Although from the beginning, I knew from Xiaobai's mouth that this medicine cauldron was not an ordinary thing. But now that she looked closer, Murong Qingyan could feel the extraordinary nature of this medicine cauldron even more. Even if it is just standing here, such a momentum is impossible to ignore.
Moreover, as long as you get close to the medicine cauldron, you can smell a faint medicinal fragrance, which shows how many elixirs have been refined in this medicine cauldron before.
Xiaobai jumped directly onto the medicine cauldron and couldn't help but sigh, "It's really an unexpected surprise to be able to get this medicine cauldron this time! Master, with the medicine cauldron, it will definitely be helpful for you to make alchemy in the future." It’s a huge benefit.”
"Well," Murong Qingyan nodded, "I know that if this wasn't a good thing, the Chen family wouldn't want it so much."
"Humph, now this medicine cauldron is ours." Xiaobai snorted coldly, "Even if they want it, they can only think about it slowly."
"Haha, I think they won't give up so easily!" Murong Qingyan chuckled, with a sarcastic smile on his lips, "They had been raising prices before, and even raised the price to 20 million purple gold coins. It can be seen that they We are determined to get this medicine cauldron, and now we have photographed the medicine cauldron. But do you think they will really give up?"
"Master, do you suspect that they will play dirty tricks?" Xiao Bai immediately understood what Murong Qingyan meant, but he was not worried at all, "If they dare to play dirty tricks, I will make sure they never come back. "
It's not afraid of these people from the Chen family!
"Forget it, I don't have the time to play with them slowly." Murong Qingyan shrugged and said, "After we get the money, we can leave directly! And, I think, Xinghui Auction House will be happy to see us off.”
"Yeah, yeah." Xiaobai nodded repeatedly, and then sighed, "We still have 90 million gold coins left! However, the price of 90 million gold coins for these thousand third-grade elixirs is not low. ”
"Really?" After hearing Xiao Bai's words, Murong Qingyan raised a smile on her lips and suddenly spoke, "Xiao Bai, do you still remember that we auctioned ten Foundation Establishment Pills before, and how much money we paid in total? "
Hearing Murong Qingyan's sudden question, Xiaobai was stunned for a moment. When it came to its senses, its face had become a little distorted. It had a sad face and looked at Murong Qingyan with a look of grievance. , "Master, we have suffered a loss, and a big loss."
Because it remembered that at the previous auction in the Jialuo Kingdom, the ten Foundation Establishment Pills were sold for 100 million gold coins. But what about now? A thousand third-grade elixirs, but only 90 million gold coins in the end. Such a huge gap was really unbearable for him.
Seeing Xiao Bai's expression about to cry, Murong Qingyan shook her head in a funny way, "Okay, I'm not even sad, do you need to look like this?"
"Master, whenever I think about the difference, my heart aches!" Xiaobai felt very heartbroken, "The quantity of pills this time is a hundred times that of last time, but the price has been increased. It’s even lower by 10 million gold coins at a time. This fact is really hard to accept!”
"Xiao Bai, this moment is the same as the other moment!" Murong Qingyan did not feel any sadness because of such a gap, "The situation is different. When I was in Jialuo Kingdom, third-grade elixirs were very important in the eyes of those people. Precious elixirs. But here in Cangmang City, most of the people who came to participate in the auction this time are from the realm of Yunmiao. They have seen too many good things. Although these third-grade elixirs are in large quantities, they are In my eyes, it’s not the most precious thing. That’s why it’s like this.”
"The reason why the Foundation Establishment Pill fetched such a high price last time was not the result of our design of the Nangong family! The price of these thousand third-grade pills is not low either."
"Master, even though you said this, I still feel very uncomfortable." Xiaobai looked downcast, "The gap is really too big, and it's hard for me to accept this reality."
"Okay, okay." Murong Qingyan hugged Xiaobai directly and said with a smile, "Don't forget, the reason why we put these pills up for auction is just as a stepping stone. It’s just that we can enter this auction. Besides, we can get the Supreme Medicine Cauldron this time, which is already a big gain.”
Hearing Murong Qingyan's words, Xiaobai turned his head, looked at the Supreme Medicine Cauldron, and nodded with satisfaction. Although it was impossible to cure it all at once, he still felt that his mood was much better.
That's right, getting the Supreme Medicine Cauldron this time is the biggest gain. As for the rest, it’s better not to think about it any more.
Looking at Xiao Bai's appearance, Murong Qingyan shook her head in amusement, waved her hand, and directly took the Supreme Medicine Cauldron back into the space.
The remaining auction event was still going on, but Murong Qingyan no longer had much interest. She had already obtained the Supreme Medicine Cauldron, and she didn't like any of the remaining auction items. However, it’s fun to watch other people’s bids.
Time passed quickly, and with Yao Ji's last "deal", this large-scale auction finally came to an end.
This auction was beyond everyone’s expectations. No one could have imagined that the highest-priced item sold at the auction was not the last item, but an item that no one else had even heard of before. I’ve heard of the medicine cauldron.
After the auction ended, Murong Qingyan did not leave because she was still waiting for Mr. Li to send her money. Although the auction price of the elixir was much different from that of the Supreme Medicine Cauldron, and could even be ignored, it was still her money.
Moreover, if you look at it separately, 90 million gold coins is not a small amount. She will never forget this amount of money!
Not long after, there was another knock on the door. This time, Xiaobai did not return to the space, but quietly nestled in Murong Qingyan's arms.
After Li Shuo entered the door, he saw a small furry thing in Murong Qingyan's arms, but he was well-informed and did not show any abnormality.
This time, only Li Shuo entered the door. He came to Murong Qingyan, handed the card that Murong Qingyan had just handed him to Murong Qingyan again, and said respectfully, "Mr. Mu , the 15 million purple gold coins in this card have been deducted. This time, the transaction price of the 1,000 pills you provided is 90 million gold coins. Now there are 90 million gold coins in the card."
After saying that, Li Shuo took out a jade pendant again and handed it to Murong Qingyan's hand, "This is the certificate for our distinguished guests of Xinghui Auction House. From now on, Mr. Mu will be our most distinguished guest and he can enjoy more and better things." treatment.”
"Well," Murong Qingyan nodded and took the purple gold card and jade pendant handed over by Li Shuo. However, she was still confused, "You said, this card contains 90 million gold coins."
Generally speaking, when something is sold at an auction, the auction house charges a commission. And this time she auctioned the elixir at Xinghui Auction House, and she had already agreed before that she would take a 10% commission.
"Mr. Mu doesn't know something. After discussion with the senior management of our auction house, we will not collect the commission from Mr. Mu this time." Li Shuo explained, "In the future, as long as the master still has things to auction, we will only A commission of five percent is taken. This is a treatment that all VIPs of our auction house can enjoy. Also, Mr. Mu can participate in all the auctions held by our Xinghui Auction House in the future with this jade pendant, without any need for any invitation letter.”
After hearing Li Shuo's explanation, Murong Qingyan immediately understood what was going on. It is also common for auction houses to do this, probably in order to win over her, a big customer! In addition, she spent 25 million purple gold coins in the auction house today.
According to regulations, the auction house can collect 2.5 million purple gold coins. Such a high reward is far higher than the discounts given to her.
Murong Qingyan nodded, indicating that she understood. She raised her head, looked at Li Shuo, and suddenly asked, "By the way, Mr. Li, I wonder if there is any other passage here that allows me to leave. ?”
Although she only speculated that people from the Chen family might do something to her, she still felt that it was better to be cautious. These auction houses should have some secret passages specifically for distinguished guests to leave!
Hearing Murong Qingyan's question, Li Shuo was stunned for a moment, but he quickly remembered what happened at today's auction. He probably understood Murong Qingyan's worries, and he nodded quickly, "That's natural. Mr. Mu, please come with me!"
With that said, Li Shuo took Murong Qingyan and left the second floor directly through the secret passage in the box, and then left through the VIP passage on the first floor.
After leaving the auction, Murong Qingyan returned to the academy with satisfaction. Although today's auction did not include the scraps she originally wanted, being able to take the Supreme Medicine Cauldron was an unexpected gain. With this medicine cauldron, she can refine elixirs better.
On this side, Murong Qingyan had returned to the academy and took a rest.
But on the other side, Chen Xianyi and others have not left the auction site yet. They knew that the people at the auction house kept the identity information of customers absolutely confidential, so if they wanted to know who the person who took the medicine cauldron was, the only way was to wait.
As long as the people in box No. 8 come out, they will know who stole the supreme medicine cauldron that they were supposed to take. Therefore, even though the auction house has ended, they still did not leave the auction house in order to wait for the opportunity.
But. But they didn't wait until the person in box No. 8 came out. In the end, when almost everyone had left the auction house, they realized that the person in box No. 8 had left the auction house shortly after the auction ended.
When he heard the news, Chen Xianyi almost vomited blood. He had no idea that while he was waiting here, the person would have already left the auction house.
However, while he was angry, he was more afraid because he didn't know how to explain himself when he went back. But even taking a picture of a medicine cauldron, he didn't do such a thing well. He really didn't know how to explain it to the head of the family. Originally, he had planned that even if he didn't successfully take the photo, as long as he snatched it away in the end, that would be fine.
However, now they have left with the medicine cauldron. And, most importantly, he didn't even know who the person who took the photo of the medicine cauldron was.
Seeing Chen Xianyi's ugly face, Chen Wenqing felt uncomfortable, but now that things have reached this point, she really has no idea at all, "Brother, what should we do now? That person has left, but We haven’t gotten the medicine cauldron yet.”
"Forget it, it's a blessing, not a curse. It's a curse that can't be avoided." Chen Xianyi said with a gloomy face, "Now we have no other way, let's go back and apologize first!"
"But, if we go back like this, my grandfather will definitely not let us off easily." Chen Wenqing was very anxious, a glimmer of light flashed in her eyes, "Brother, otherwise we can directly ask Xinghui Auction Those who are good at it will definitely know who the person who took the medicine cauldron is. As long as we know who that person is, we will always have a solution."
"Don't even think about it." Chen Xianyi shook his head. "The people at the auction house will never tell us. Even if we ask, there will be no results."
"Then we can just use the name of the Chen family." Chen Wen gritted her teeth and said, "I don't believe that it is just a small auction and it will not give our Chen family face."
Hearing Chen Wenqing's words, Chen Xianbin, who had been silent until now, couldn't help but curl up with a sarcastic smile. He had always known that Chen Wen was stupid, but he never expected that she would be so stupid.
"Okay, stop talking." Chen Xianyi opened his mouth and scolded in a low voice, "Do you think this Xinghui Auction House is an ordinary auction house? This auction house has been able to stand for so many years. Do you think it is that simple behind it? ?Now that the Supreme Medicine Cauldron has not been auctioned, if it offends the Xinghui Auction House, then my grandfather will not bypass us."
After saying that, Chen Xianyi turned around and left with Chen Xianbin and Chen Wenqing.
Although it was clear that the situation he would face after returning would definitely be very bad, he had no other choice. Although he couldn't see anything special about this medicine cauldron, there must be a reason why the family owner valued it so much. The most important thing for him now is to go back first, tell the story, and see if he can think of other ways to remedy the situation when he sees it. but--
Chen Xianyi glanced at Chen Xianbin without leaving any trace. Although Chen Xianbin did not express too many opinions from beginning to end, he also knew in his heart that Chen Xianbin was definitely not a gentleman.
No need to ask, he knew what Chen Xianbin was thinking. Don't think that he doesn't know, he can see Chen Xianbin's secret joy. It seems that Chen Xianbin is very happy about his failure this time! However, Chen Xianbin was too happy too early.
He did fail in this mission. But this does not mean that he has to bear all the responsibilities alone. Does Chen Xianbin think he can get out of the relationship? Humph, even if he was unlucky, he would not let Chen Xianbin stay out of the matter.
Thinking of this, Chen Xianyi's eyes flashed with a calculating light.
The three of them all had their own plans in mind.
Murong Qingyan was not interested at all in what happened after Chen Xianyi and others returned to the Chen family, and what happened in the aftermath.
After the auction, she still devoted herself to serious study. The next day, she took out the Supreme Medicine Cauldron that she had photographed in front of Yuan Li.
"Wow, little apprentice, where did your medicine cauldron come from?" Yuan Li circled around the supreme medicine cauldron, his eyes flashing with excitement, "Although I have never heard of this before. Medicine cauldron, but I can tell at a glance that this medicine cauldron is not simple! Where did you cheat it from?"
"Master, can you speak more nicely!" After hearing Yuan Li's description, Murong Qingyan felt really helpless, "Can't you speak nicely? What do you mean by cheating! This medicine cauldron, but I bought it with real money."
you do not say! She paid a lot for this medicine cauldron! I didn't feel much when I spent it out before, but now when I think about it, I still feel very heartbroken.
"If you can encounter such a good thing, you have found a treasure." Yuan Li praised, "With this medicine cauldron, it will definitely be a good thing for you to make alchemy."
Murong Qingyan nodded and looked at the Supreme Medicine Cauldron in front of her, her face full of satisfaction.
"By the way, Qingyan, there is one thing that I have always wanted to tell you, but I have forgotten it." Yuan Li seemed to have remembered something, and the expression on his face suddenly became serious, "Before, Didn’t I once say that the birthmark on your face was caused by medication and was not natural?”
"Well." After hearing Yuan Li's words, Murong Qingyan's heart moved. She raised her head suddenly and looked at Yuan Li. Although she tried her best to contain it, she could still see her excitement at this time, "Master, are you Already know it.”
Although Murong Qingyan didn't feel much about the birthmark on her face. However, as soon as she thought that her current appearance was caused by the drugs in her body, she couldn't help but pretend that nothing happened. She didn't want there to be any hidden dangers left in her body. After reviving her life, she now cherishes her life very much.
"That's right." Yuan Li nodded, "I felt very strange when I saw the birthmark on your face before. Later, I read some ancient books and saw from them that you should have taken a An herb called Floating Grass. The leaves of this herb can hide a person’s true appearance and make it impossible for them to practice. However, other than that, it has no other harm to the human body, so you don’t have to worry too much. Another question. Your condition should be caused by taking the leaves of Floating Grass."
"Master, is there any way to remove the medicinal properties of this floating grass?" Murong Qingyan asked, "All things are interdependent, so there should be other herbs or elixirs that can remove the medicinal properties of floating grass. Let’s take advantage of the medicinal properties of Li Cao!”
"Indeed," Yuan Li nodded, but the expression on his face did not relax. "It is actually very simple to remove the medicinal properties of Floating Grass. The flowers of Floating Grass can do this. .”
"The leaves of Floating Grass can hide a person's appearance, block the meridians, and make it impossible to practice. But if you want to relieve this medicinal property, you only need to boil water with the flowers of Floating Grass and take it."
"Floating grass." Murong Qingyan frowned, "Then where can this kind of floating grass be found?"
Although she hasn't finished reading the "Medical Classic" yet, she has already read a large part of it. But until now, she had not seen any introduction about Floating Grass.
"This Floating Grass has actually been extinct for many years." Yuan Li couldn't help but sigh, "Such a medicinal herb doesn't have much use, so it wasn't taken seriously at all, and it later became extinct for many years."
"Extinct?" Upon hearing this fact, Murong Qingyan couldn't help but frown.
If it had really been extinct for many years, how could she have this herb in her body?
"If you really want to say where it is, as far as I know, there is only one place." After Yuan Li straightened his expression, he continued, "I once heard that in the Chen family's herbal garden in the realm of Yunmiao, And this herb."
Hearing Yuan Li suddenly mention the Chen family, Murong Qingyan couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. She didn't expect that this kind of herbal medicine would be in the Chen family. Does that also mean that the reason why there is a kind of medicinal herb in her body is related to the Chen family?
