Xu Yi is not so arrogant as to think that his reputation alone can intimidate the big shots in the United Merchant Association. There must be a story in it.
He pondered for a moment, but still couldn't figure it out, so he simply gave up guessing. If there really was a story, he imagined that the other party would eventually take the initiative to reveal it.
The important point now, however, is his first goal, which seems to have been achieved.
An hour later, "seemingly" turned into "certain".
Su Yunlai walked in with a smile on his face, as if being blown by the spring breeze, he cupped his fists and said, "Lord Xu, Fortunately, I have lived up to my fate. Fifteen Mid-grade Water Spirit Stone, five each of the other four series mid-grade Spirit Stone, a total of thirty-five, and more than one thousand, five hundred and thirty Fire Element Spirit Stone. Please check." He said, handing over a Sumeru Ring.
Xu Yi was not pretentious. He poured blood into Sumeru Ring. He put his thoughts into it and instantly determined the inventory inside. His face was filled with joy. "Thank you so much. Let me prepare spiritual stones. Xu's spiritual stones may not be enough. How about using gold spiritual stones to make up for it."
Su Yunlai pondered for a moment, "That's no problem, but the price is the same as the price Brother Xu just offered to buy Fire Element Spirit Stone."
Xu Yi didn't expect this guy to be waiting for him here. However, his wish came true and he was in a good mood. He didn't want to get entangled in such trivial matters, so he naturally agreed and immediately ordered his spirit stone to be tested.
Although he had made preparations in advance and exchanged two million spiritual stones for Crystal Token, the gold spiritual stones still needed some verification. After all, compared to the transaction, the spiritual stones involved were close to five million spiritual stones.
After spending half a stick of incense, the two completed the delivery. Of course, Xu Yi did not forget his promise to Su Yunlai and fulfilled his more than 15,300 yuan in benefits.
After the delivery, Xu Yi's usable assets were greatly reduced, leaving only more than 600 gold spiritual stones, plus more than 20 mid-grade Spirit Stone, and several mid-grade gold Spirit Stone, and these mid-grade gold Spirit Stone, he never thought of including them in the transaction. After all, Mid-grade Five Elements Spirit Stone is really rare. If it is consumed here, it will be difficult to find it again.
Based on this calculation, the assets he could use were only close to 1.5 million spiritual stones.
One and a half million spiritual stones, lying nearby, was still a huge sum of money, but who knew how many treasures there would be in the auction that was about to happen, and he really didn't have the confidence in his heart.
"Lord Xu, the auction is about to begin, would you like Su Mou to escort you in?"
Su Yunlai reminded with a smile.
Xu Yi Thoughts flashed, "Brother Su, after purchasing so many spiritual stones, Xu is really short of money. If he encounters something he likes at the auction, Xu is short of money. I wonder if your chamber of commerce can have a loan business."
Su Yunlai pondered for a moment and said, "I dare not satisfy Lord Xu. This loan business does exist, but with Lord Xu's situation, I'm afraid it will be difficult to apply for a loan."
"Why is this?"
Xu Yi is a little curious.
Su Yunlai said, "Lord Xu Don't blame Su Mou for speaking outright. Lord Xu is really alone. Once it is damaged, the interests of the chamber of commerce will not be protected at all."
Xu Yi is dumbfounded, this is indeed the truth.
No one would dare to lend a heavenly quantity of spiritual stones to a person without a guarantee of safety, not to mention that he has enemies all over the place.
"However, do you have anything as collateral? If you do, this matter will be easier and simpler."
After all, it was a big gift from Xu Yi, and Su Yunlai also wanted to win the favor of Xu Yi, a powerful person.
As soon as these words came out, Xu Yi suddenly understood, "There is really no shortage of mortgage items, but there is no need to mortgage them for the time being. We will only know after the auction."
His mortgage was naturally the Wind Talisman, but there was no need to reveal it at this time.
Su Yunlai said, "It doesn't matter. The auction later will be a collective auction, not in a secret room. The price will be bid first and settled later. The settlement methods are diverse. If you need additional spiritual stones by then, it won't be too late to mortgage them."
"This is the best. If there is a need, don't bother Brother Su."
Such an ending couldn't be more satisfying for Xu Yi.
Su Yunlai smiled and said, "Between you and me, why bother seeing each other outside? The time is almost up, so I will send Brother Xu to the entrance."
Su Yunlai is right, this auction will be a collective auction.
This kind of auction is more complicated than a secret room auction, but it helps the auctioneer better grasp the atmosphere in the venue, and it is also easier for bidders to be influenced by the atmosphere in the venue and make impulsive actions.
The advantages and disadvantages of the two cannot be explained clearly in a few words.
After Su Yunlai sent Xu Yi to the venue, he said goodbye and left. Xu Yi received an auction sign with the number 67 by the gate and sat at the back.
There were so many people participating in the photoshoot, it actually exceeded the number of people at the previous exchange meeting, nearly 2,000 people.
The entire venue was chosen to be held in the Zhao family's Dead Man's Arena. The audience seats were large enough and the sightlines were excellent. Everyone could clearly see the auction chairman's seat in the center.
After Xu Yi sat down, it didn't take long for the photo session to begin. The main photographer was an old man with a white beard. His voice was loud and his demeanor was calm. He didn't make any inciting remarks and went straight to the topic, "This photo shoot" Yes, it will be divided into the following categories: elixirs, monsters, magic weapons, talismans, Precious Medicine, and miscellaneous items. The same is true for the auction order. Now please bring up the first lot, Grain Abstinence Pill."
"This Grain Abstinence Pill is an extraordinary Grain Abstinence Pill. It was made by Wuchenzi. Taking this Grain Abstinence Pill can last for three years without eating or drinking. It is an important treasure for spiritual practice. The starting price is five hundred spiritual stones, and each increase in price must not be less than fifty spiritual stones."
"If you can survive without food or drink for three years, it's almost as good as an elixir."
Xu Yi was secretly surprised. Originally, his purpose of coming this time was quite clear. He asked for one piece of defense Dharma Treasure and watched the rest.
Unexpectedly, this first treasure made him fall in love. Although he was fond of food, he did know the meaning of this Grain Abstinence Pill. To put it bluntly, monks are also human beings, and they have not cultivated into the god Immortal Body who can eat wind and drink dew.
In practice, especially in long-term practice, practice will inevitably be interrupted due to physical needs. If there is a Grain Abstinence Pill of this level, it will indeed be of great help to practice.
Immediately, he couldn't help but raise his sign, "One Thousand Spiritual Stones!"
He raised the price to the sky in one fell swoop, which was also his usual routine. He was willing to spend more spiritual stones on anything he liked.
And he thought to himself that a thousand spiritual stones were not much. Buying one would keep you from being hungry for three years, so it was worth it.
Little did he know that as soon as he raised his sign, the price immediately went up again, reaching one thousand and fifty in an instant.
In an instant, Xu Yi stopped thinking about competition. If this momentum continues, it won't be able to stop it without two thousand spirit stones.
If two thousand spiritual stones were used to fill his stomach, it would last for many years. Even though he was quite wealthy now, he couldn't help but squander it like this.
Sure enough, this Grain Abstinence Pill was finally settled at a sky-high price of two thousand five hundred spirit stones, which was five times higher than the starting price.
