The Treasure Generating Bowl - Chapter 839

Chapter 839 Shop Acquired

These auctions and trade fairs offer opportunities to find good items.

Since he had nothing else to do, He Pingsheng was determined to get involved.

“please!”

Elder Dong said, “Fellow Daoist Taixu, please wait a moment. We still need some time to prepare. The auction will begin in about two hours!”

“Okay!” He Pingsheng nodded and waited in the private room.

He didn’t find almost any of the items at the auction appealing.

Apart from that one shop.

As for what’s at the trade fair, there’s something to look forward to.

While waiting, He Pingsheng didn’t sit idle; he took out the [Taiqing Golden Liquid Scripture] and began to study it.

At the very least, I should try to understand the recipe for this [Seven-Colored Sacred Lotus Tea].

Two hours is enough for him to memorize the formula and to mentally rehearse the process of refining the golden liquid.

Time flies.

Two hours passed in the blink of an eye, and the auction began!

Auctions are all pretty much the same.

The furnishings and their positions inside are all the same.

Elder Dong gave He Pingsheng a plaque, and when He Pingsheng entered, he found that it was a VIP seat, so he didn’t stand on ceremony and sat down directly.

After about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, several thousand people were seated in the venue.

The auction began quickly.

The auction was hosted by the female elder from the first floor.

This elder is quite attractive and eloquent, but her cultivation level is rather low, only at the Nascent Soul stage.

“Fellow practitioners, seniors!” the woman said calmly, her gaze sweeping around as she spoke: “Everyone knows the rules of the Mountain Spring Chamber of Commerce’s auctions. It’s very simple: you must not use your power to bully others. For all items auctioned, whether they are consigned or auctioned by our own store, we do not charge any intermediary fees!”

“Please rest assured, it’s completely free!”

“Of course, at the auction, prices will be in spirit stones!”

“Therefore, there won’t be any high-end items. If you want better items, you can participate in our trade fair tomorrow morning after the auction!”

“The specific rules for the trade fair will be announced at the fair itself!”

He Pingsheng couldn’t help but nod when he heard this rule.

They seem very generous, charging no intermediary fees whether it’s a consignment auction or a self-sale.

To be honest, even if they were to collect, they wouldn’t get much. Using the guise of “free” to attract people is a pretty good gimmick.

Just as this deity said, the truly good things are all at the trade fair.

If a brokerage fee is charged at the trade fair, then that’s where you can make a profit.

Next comes the auction.

He Pingsheng discovered that the quality of the items being auctioned here was indeed not very good!

For example, among magical artifacts, the highest level is only a spiritual treasure, and even that is a low-grade spiritual treasure.

Even this was argued about so fiercely by the cultivators that their faces turned red!

Other rare and precious materials, talismans, elixirs, etc., are at most only up to the sixth grade.

Most of them are of grade five quality.

He Pingsheng was naturally not interested in these things, and since he had seen the auction items in advance, he already knew what was going on.

He Pingsheng would have almost fallen asleep if it weren’t for the fact that he had to wait for the shop.

After about an hour, it was finally time for the shop to be auctioned!

“Everyone!” The female deity took a deep breath: “The item to be auctioned next is rather special—it’s a shop located on the bustling [Cauldron Street]. The exact location is shown in the picture!”

Buzzing…

With a ripple, a light membrane appeared, and on the light membrane was a map.

The map shows a detailed view of Dinglu Street. The location of the Chamber of Commerce is average, situated in the very center of Dinglu Street.

“The entire shop is divided into two parts. The front part is the shop front, which is about three zhang in diameter. There is also a small courtyard with a diameter of ten zhang in the back, which is connected to the shop!”

“The auction is now open. The usage period is one hundred years, with no other fees!”

“Moreover, this shop is a consignment auction by the Imperial Palace!”

“Starting bid: 100,000 high-grade spirit stones. Each bid must be at least 10,000 high-grade spirit stones!”

“Please make your bid!”

Snap…

The auctioneer tapped the table with his gavel, signaling for bidders to place their bids.

He Pingsheng was the first to raise his hand and said, “One hundred thousand!”

Then……

That was it!

Because no one else made a bid besides him.

this……

He Pingsheng had a vague feeling that he had been tricked.

What happened?

Is there some kind of scam involved in this shop?

However, he was unfamiliar with the area and didn’t know much about the shops. He had no way to ask anyone, so he could only shake his head and smile bitterly: “There’s probably a trap here.”

“Bang…” The woman tapped the small hammer on the table again and said, “Congratulations to this fellow Daoist for winning a shop on Dinglu Street for 100,000 high-grade spirit stones… If you don’t want any other items, you can go to the back to complete the relevant procedures now!”

He Pingsheng naturally didn’t want to stay at the auction. He stood up and left the Chamber of Commerce under the guidance of the staff. A short while later, he came to Elder Dong’s side.

“Hehehe…” Elder Dong chuckled and said, “Please sit down!”

There were still only two people in the private room.

“I’ve already had someone handle the paperwork for you!”

“Brother, pay up!”

He Pingsheng took out ten top-grade spirit stones and handed them over, saying, “This shop has a good location and a large enough area, so why didn’t anyone bid on it? I just put down the starting price and got it?”

He Pingsheng asked Elder Dong with a puzzled look.

Elder Dong smiled and said, “In the Imperial City, shops aren’t worth much!”

“Take the shop you just acquired, for example. It’s located on Dinglu Street!”

“Cauldron Street is nice and bustling, a place many cultivators like to visit, but… there are over two hundred shops on this street, and they all sell pills…”

“说句不好听的，咱们雷荒大陆上最多的就是炼丹师，所以丹药也就……“

董长老的笑容里，有些无奈。

贺平生懂了！

董长老又安慰他道：“如果老弟你炼丹有特色，生意也是容易起来的！”

“比如说，你炼制的丹药，品质高！”

“或者说，成丹率高，如果拥有这些本事，即便是在这种地方，也可以让你声名鹊起的！”

“行吧！”贺平生叹了一口气：“买都买了，我也不在乎这些了！”

别人开店不行，不代表我贺平生不行。

老子手里可是有聚宝盆的，回头拿出来丹药强化一下，不说做到极品，都弄到上品，也应该能吸引人了吧？

过了一会儿，这店铺的手续就办理完毕，一枚阵法钥匙被送到了贺平生的手上。

现在开始，那店铺就属于他了。

而且这里的店铺有一个好处，就是不收税！

只有一个拍卖价格！
