Chapter 27: Linlang Pavilion
The three major families in Mohe City, the Xiao family, the Zhang family, and the Tang family, each had a large amount of real estate and shops in the city, but none of the three major families were involved in the most profitable auction house in the city.
All this is just because of the name of this auction house - Linlang Pavilion.
Linlang Pavilion, the largest auction house in the Daqin Empire, has its distribution points in the thirty-six counties of the nine states of the empire, and the owner behind it is the current consort Nangonglie. The royal relatives, coupled with the huge power of the Nangong family, naturally no one dared to offend them under this *.
Perhaps in some larger state cities and imperial capitals, there are forces that can compete with the Nangong family, and dare to open a second or third auction house, but in this small Mohe City, no one dares to push their noses. Get on your face and go to open this second auction house.
Linlang Pavilion is the destination of Xiao Chen's trip. You can't expose your identity as a pharmacist and go to the Xiao family to get money, let alone sell the moon stones in the room. If you want to get money quickly, you can only rely on it. The Bigu Pill refined last night.
After adjusting the cloak on his body, looking at the gorgeous signboard of Linlang Pavilion, a smile appeared on Xiao Chen's face under the shadows, and slowly walked into Linlang Pavilion.
Because of the low flow of people, Linlang Pavilion in Mohe City will hold a small auction every month, a medium auction every three months, and a large auction only once a year. At that time, it was also the busiest time in Mohe City.
It’s almost the end of the month, there are many people in the lobby on the first floor who come to see the goods in advance. These people are undoubtedly not very high-ranking people in Mohe City. Among them, the three major families have the largest number of people, Xiao Chen even I saw a lot of acquaintances of the Xiao family, but this is not the time to say hello.
A dangerous aura suddenly came from behind him, followed by a palm that was about to reach down. Xiao Chenming felt this aura keenly, his body flashed forward, and he turned to shoot instantly.
Puchi!
He grabbed the man's wrist at once, Xiao Chen grabbed the man's wrist with a little force, the man immediately showed a painful expression, and shouted sharply: "Bastard, let me go."
This person is dressed in a blue and white warrior robe, with a pattern of twenty-seven or eight, and his cultivation is in the middle-rank realm of warriors. There is a yellow money flower embroidered on the collar. Xiao Chen knew in his heart that this person should be the guard of Linlang Pavilion. But he didn't intend to let go.
The strength in his hand increased again, and he said coldly, "Why did you attack me?"
The man screamed again and scolded: "Bastard, let go quickly, or you won't want to leave this Linlang Pavilion."
The voices of the two quickly attracted people around them, and they looked at Xiao Chen with some playfulness. Xiao Chen's cultivation was only at the realm of low-level warriors. These people could see at a glance that a small low-level warrior dared to come to Linlang Pavilion. Trouble is too ignorant of life and death.
Soon a large group of warriors dressed in blue and white ran, with money flowers embroidered on their collars, and surrounded Xiao Chen under the leadership of a warrior in the martial arts realm.
The martial artist had thick eyebrows and big eyes, a burly stature, but the expression on his face was extremely cautious, and he did not appear particularly angry or irritable. His eyebrows were slightly wrinkled. On the man, he said coldly, "Gao Long, what's going on?"
The expression on Gao Long's face, who was clasped by Xiao Chen's wrist, was incomparably painful. There was a continuous flow of electricity from Xiao Chen's hand, which poured into his body. The current immediately dissipated without a trace, making him unable to break free from Xiao Chen's palm.
"Captain, this person is dressed strangely. After entering the hall, he looks around with snarky eyes. I'm afraid that he has some ulterior motives, so I want to capture him and ask." Gao Long said in a trembling voice.
His dignified middle-rank martial artist was detained by a low-rank martial artist. Even if he was justified this time and lost the face of Linlang Pavilion, the captain's punishment would definitely not be able to escape. Thinking of the captain's punishment, Gao Long's body couldn't bear it. Stop trembling.
The top-grade warrior known as the captain, looked at Xiao Chen's dress with some doubts in his heart.
Whoever came here was not dressed in fine silk and satin, and who would dress up so strangely like Xiao Chen, with a cloak covering his whole body, making him look like an unspeakable figure.
"This friend is under Jiang Qi, the first-floor guard commander of Linlang Pavilion. I don't know what you are here for, but what do you want to buy?" Although Xiao Chen was already set in his heart, Jiang Qi asked cautiously.
"No." The shadow under the cloak completely covered Xiao Chen's face, and he couldn't see any expression on his face.
Gao Long, who was detained by him, had a happy expression on his face when he heard this. He didn't come to buy something, so naturally he came to make trouble. Since he came to make trouble, this kid will definitely not be able to get out. With a sinister smile in his heart, the pain in his hand seemed to have eased.
"Then Your Excellency is here, do you have any friends?" Jiang Qi still asked patiently, but the murderous aura he had been hiding was unscrupulously released. As long as Xiao Chen's answer was negative again, he would immediately take action, no matter who was there. There is only one end for the troublemakers in this Linlang Pavilion, death!
Jiang Qi's aura of high-ranking martial artist dissipated to the surroundings, and the murderous aura firmly enveloped Xiao Chen. The chilling murderous aura even made the people around him tremble. When these people looked at Xiao Chen again, they had already regarded him as a dead.
The strong murderous aura can even be felt by the people around it. In fact, it is also a reason for the lack of realm. It is condensed and unrealistic. The murderous aura of a real master can gather into a linear network, and it gathers but does not disperse. People don't feel it at all.
Xiao Chen, who was surrounded by murderous aura, had no fear and said lightly, "I have no friends here."
Jiang Qi sneered, "That offends me."
call!
The surrounding air suddenly turned cold, and the coldness of Ling Lie gathered on his body, a icy piece of ice wrapped his fist and blasted towards Xiao Chen with a whistling sound.
Xiao Chen took a step back, turned Gao Long's body in a circle in the air, and threw it towards Jiang Qi fiercely. , a strong medicinal fragrance spread around, and soon the entire first floor hall was filled with this medicinal fragrance.
"What kind of medicine is this, why is it so fragrant?"
"Is this guy a pharmacist?"
"I think it's very similar, those alchemists are very strange, otherwise he wouldn't be so calm."
In the hall, there were a lot of voices discussing, these are people with a bit of identity who have been in contact with medicinal pills, but they have never seen medicinal pills with such a strong fragrance, and for a while, Xiao Chen was regarded as a very high-grade mysterious alchemist. pharmacist.
The corner of Xiao Chen's mouth under the cloak gently pulled upwards, and said with a smile, "Is there no business person in the huge Linlang Pavilion?"
Jiang Qi, who had just caught Gao Long, threw him on the ground. Hearing Xiao Chen's words at this time, seeing the medicine pill in Xiao Chen's hand, he knew that he might be in trouble, and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Senior, I'm sorry, I still ask the seniors to forgive me at the next moment."
Although Xiao Chen's strength is only a low-grade martial artist, if he can refine a high-grade medicinal pill, it is natural for him to call him a senior.
Gao Long, who was lying on the ground, grinned and screamed in pain. Xiao Chen used a lot of force when he threw him to Jiang Qi. In addition to Jiang Qi's casual throw, there was nowhere on his body. pain. Hearing Jiang Qi's words, his whole body looked like he had fallen into an ice cave. What kind of bad luck did he have today, and he even offended a pharmacist as a sneaky thief.
Xiao Chen didn't care about the change in Jiang Qi's attitude, all of which were within his expectations, nothing to be surprised about, and continued: "Stop talking nonsense, take me to your treasure appraiser, my medicinal herbs will be in time for It's going to auction at the end of this month."
Jiang Qi once again thanked Xiao Chen and led Xiao Chen to the cabinet. Along the way, he was inquiring about Xiao Chen's origins. Of course, Xiao Chen would not be fooled by this trick, and he said a lot of nonsense.
Looking at the back of Xiao Chen's departure, after a long time, the quiet hall on the first floor smashed the pot again, and the discussions continued one after another.
"This alchemist actually came to bid, Lao Chen, when was the last time Linlang Pavilion auctioned the medicinal pills, do you remember?"
"In the large-scale auction held last year, a third-grade medicinal pill was auctioned."
"I think this year's large-scale auction may be held in advance. The medicine pill brought by the mysterious person is definitely above the third rank."
"Nonsense, how could the third-grade medicinal herbs have such a strong medicinal fragrance, and the fourth-grade medicinal herbs I have seen before did not have such a strong aroma." Someone next to the person immediately came out and retorted.
"How is it possible, at least a fourth-grade pharmacist is the one who refines the fourth-grade medicinal pills. There are not many fourth-grade alchemists in the entire Roger State. How could people come to such a small Mohe City like me."
For a while in the hall, there was a fierce debate about what grade this mysterious elixir was.
...
At this time, in the cabinet, the elixir appraiser Hu Lao was also sweating profusely. He was thinking hard about the grade of this elixir in his mind. After taking it, he did not need to eat for a month. What kind of elixir is this? Medicine is unheard of in Daqin.
The treasure appraisers of Linlang Pavilion are naturally not bad. These treasure appraisers are all cultivated by Linlang Pavilion. They will only be distributed after passing through layers of assessments. The treasure appraisers in Linlang Pavilion all start from the lowest level. Then go up with grades.
Therefore, even the true strength of this treasure appraiser in Mohe City can be placed in other auction venues, and it can stand on its own in any state-level auction venue.
Elder Hu looked at the medicinal pill in his hand carefully. He was sure that the medicinal pill was not something to fool people. Whether it was the fragrance, smoothness and color of the medicinal pill, it was not something that ordinary people could refine. But he had never heard of any medicinal pill in this world called Bigu Pill, and he was worried about how to price it.
Xiao Chen sat on the chair again, took a sip of the tea next to him, looked at Elder Hu who was still elusive, and said impatiently: "Elder Hu, after studying for so long, I can make an offer. "
Mr. Hu wiped the sweat from his forehead, and finally decided to be safe. He said apologetically, "Your Excellency, wait a moment, I can't identify this medicine pill, I'll ask the pavilion master to come."
Xiao Chen put down the teacup and made a gesture of pampering. He was still a little confident about whether Linlang could successfully identify the Bigu Pill.
