Chapter 14: Yafei Who Put All Her Bets on Zhang Yuan
Ya Fei wanted to say something, but found that her mouth was wrapped in Dou Qi and she couldn't make a sound.
She wanted to stand up, but she felt numb all over and couldn't move at all.
She could only stare at Zhang Yuan with a humiliating look, but the latter ignored her.
At this moment, Zhang Yuan's "hate" in her heart was as bad as that annoying guy Mu Zhan.
Xun'er smiled slightly, holding a teacup and asked curiously: "Brother Zhang Yuan, although the third-grade alchemist's experience is only useful to alchemists, if it is auctioned, the price is still higher than many fourth-grade elixirs. It's too bad to exchange it for a fourth-grade wind magic core."
Alchemists have a noble status, but not everyone can get close to them.
And high-level alchemist's experience, some more special elixir recipes, can impress alchemists.
"Hmm~" Ya Fei's peach blossom eyes widened.
She also realized what Xun'er said, and thought in her heart that Zhang Yuan was too young after all.
She had been talking to Zhang Yuan, actually trying to disrupt his thoughts, but she didn't expect to be disturbed by Xun'er.
"I understand this point." Zhang Yuan glanced at Yafei and smiled, "I didn't lie before. The real reason I came here was to find Master Gu Ni, and the fourth-level wind magic core was just a by-product."
Hearing this, Xun'er said nothing more. The reminder was a concern, but she would not care about Zhang Yuan's decision.
Yafei stopped struggling, but lowered her head to think about Zhang Yuan's real intention.
Not long after, Master Gu Ni came back and put a jade box on the table next to Zhang Yuan, and then rubbed his hands.
Zhang Yuan released his soul power to scan, and after confirming that the contents of the two jade boxes were fine, he put them into the ring, and then said: "Master Gu Ni, do you think a mere fourth-level wind magic core can match the third-level alchemist experience written by the high-level alchemist just now?"
"No." Gu Ni shook his head very honestly.
Only one-tenth of the content in the scroll benefited him a lot, not to mention the complete content.
"Hmm~" Ya Fei wanted to say something, but couldn't break free from the control of Dou Qi.
Zhang Yuan seemed not to notice and continued: "What else can Master Gu Ni take out?"
"What do you need?" Gu Ni thought for a while and said: "As long as I can take it out, I can use it for trading."
At his current age, he is only a second-grade alchemist. In addition to his average master, his alchemist talent is also relatively poor.
A third-grade alchemist may be a height he will never reach in his life, and the scroll in Zhang Yuan's hand gave him a glimmer of hope.
He can give most of his things for this hope.
"What I need is easy for you, Master." Zhang Yuan smiled and said: "We need the Mitel Auction House to share most of the information with the Xiao family, and at the same time provide some medicinal materials for the Xiao family for a long time."
It is certainly not worth exchanging the third-grade alchemist experience written by Yao Lao for the fourth-level magic core, and it is even a bit of a waste to win over Gu Ni.
But if the Mitel family of Wutan City can be pulled in, the situation will become different.
"This matter cannot be decided by me alone." Gu Ni turned his head and looked at Ya Fei.
The Mitel family controls auction houses in various places by arranging two or three people to make decisions according to the situation.
For example, in the Wutan City Auction House, Yafei is a direct descendant of the Mitel family. She is weak but has a business mind. She can contact the family and manage the daily and business affairs of the auction house.
Gu Ni is an outsider. As a second-grade alchemist and a great fighter, he sits in the auction house and is responsible for appraisal and public security.
The two of them are in a relationship of mutual cooperation and mutual supervision.
"This is not okay!" Zhang Yuan released his control over Yafei. She stood up and said, "The foundation of my Mitel Auction House is neutrality. We will not interfere in any family fights in any city."
"We can pay money or the resources needed by the Xiao family to buy this scroll for Master Gu Ni."
Gu Ni's expression did not change. He looked at Zhang Yuan without speaking.
Zhang Yuan smiled and said, "Sister Yafei got two things wrong. The Xiao family is not cooperating with the Miter Auction House, but with the two of you, and you don't need to participate in the power struggle in Wutan City."
"You are deceiving yourself." Yafei's aura changed, and she said in a sharp tone: "Master Gu Ni and I are the responsible persons here. Our cooperation with you means that the auction house cooperates with you and participates in the struggle in disguise."
Can't the position really be changed?
As long as the money is enough, this situation will not exist.
Zhang Yuan's smile was a little more playful, and he said, "Sister Yafei, you also said that you want to make some achievements in Wutan City, so that you can be valued by the family and control your own destiny. Do you think it's okay to be neutral?"
Yafei smiled without comment and asked, "Is it okay to cooperate with the Xiao family?"
"Of course." Zhang Yuan nodded and said, "In fact, the scroll that Master Gu Ni just read was written by the master of my brother Yan's master."
Xiao Yan and others: ""
Yao Chen: Not only did I become a fourth-grade alchemist, but I am also my own teacher?
"The Third Young Master Xiao's master is an alchemist?" Ya Fei's eyes flashed.
"Yes." Zhang Yuan nodded and said, "I believe you two also know that my brother Yan can't practice. It was actually a test from his teacher. Now he has passed the test and worshipped a fourth-grade alchemist as his master."
"That fourth-grade alchemist is from the Black Horn Region and has a stronger teacher. The scroll was written by my brother Yan's master."
Hiss!
Gu Ni and Ya Fei looked at each other and took a breath of cold air in their hearts.
If Zhang Yuan didn't talk nonsense, wouldn't the Xiao family be rich with a fourth-grade alchemist?
If that's the case, it's okay to cooperate with the Xiao family, but what if Zhang Yuan is lying to them?
"Sister, I have a question." Ya Fei stared at Zhang Yuan and asked, "If the third young master Xiao worships a fourth-grade alchemist as his apprentice, why doesn't the Xiao family publicize this matter?"
If the Xiao family relies on a fourth-grade alchemist, Dou Ling strongmen will have to be polite when they meet.
"Because I'm just a registered disciple." Xiao Yan took the initiative to answer: "The rules of the master's sect require that you must become a second-grade alchemist before you can be officially accepted as a disciple. Before that, you can't mention the master's name."
Master Gu Ni:?
I suspect you are despising me, and I have evidence.
"So, we can't see the fourth-grade alchemist either?" Ya Fei asked again.
"Not until Brother Yan becomes a second-grade alchemist." Zhang Yuan nodded.
Ya Fei pondered for a moment, smiled charmingly, "Isn't this asking me to gamble?"
"You want to change your fate, why don't you take the chance to gamble once?" Zhang Yuan asked back, then took out the scroll and threw it to Gu Ni.
"Master Gu Ni, I'll give you the experience. Just consider it as the sincerity of my Xiao family's cooperation."
"If you are willing to cooperate, then cooperate. If you are not willing, then consider it as a favor you personally owe my Xiao family."
After saying that, Zhang Yuan winked at Xiao Yan and Xun'er, and the three of them turned around and left.
Xiao Zhan also stood up, but he was not going to go home. He still had to attend the auction tonight and bid for some valuable things.
Ya Fei did not try to persuade him to stay. She waited until the four people left before asking Gu Ni: "Master Gu Ni, do you think his words are credible?"
"I think they are credible." Gu Ni held the scroll and said: "I was fortunate enough to listen to the lectures of the fourth-grade and fifth-grade alchemists of the Alchemist Guild, which were far less detailed and easy to understand than this experience."
"Even if the two alchemists hid something when teaching, the gap is also obvious."
"This experience should be written by an alchemist above the fifth grade."
"And the Xiao family wants to buy medicinal materials through the auction house. They probably don't want to be discovered and obstructed by the Jialie family and the Oba family, and are preparing to make pills for sale. This shows that there are indeed alchemists behind the Xiao family."
Ya Fei nodded seriously. She also tended to believe what Zhang Yuan said.
Cooperation is a long-term thing. Lies can deceive for a while, but they can't deceive for a lifetime.
"Are you going to gamble?" Gu Ni asked.
"Of course." Ya Fei's peach blossom eyes showed unprecedented seriousness.
"Let alone other things, Zhang Yuan's strength and talent as a 16-year-old nine-star fighter are enough for me to give my all and make a bet."
"Tomorrow, I will personally visit the Xiao family to discuss the details of the cooperation."
Gu Ni nodded and said, "I fully support you."
At the same time, outside the auction house.
Xiao Yan looked at Xun'er obscurely, wanting to say something but stopping.
Xun'er seemed to have sensed something, glanced at him indifferently, and asked, "Cousin, is it okay to tell everyone about the existence of Xiao Yan's cousin's master?"
Xiao Yan: ""
This is my line!!!
