Chapter 130 The Exchange Meeting Begins
After leaving the street stall, Xu Changshou went to the main street of Wanxianfang City and found the Wanbao Pavilion store.
In Wanxianfang City, apart from Wanxian Pavilion, Wanbao Pavilion has the best business.
Wanbao Pavilion's stores are also comprehensive.
Xu Changshou directly found the counter selling elixirs. When he inquired, he needed three kinds of medicinal materials. There were two kinds here, Huang Xiangling ointment and snow deer antler, and the only medicinal material missing was dendrobium.
After Xu Changshou bought these two medicinal materials, he was told by the store that Dendrobium pine trees were also available, but the supplier had not yet delivered the goods. If you want them, you can make a reservation and pick them up in a month.
Xu Changshou had no reservation. A month later, he would have returned to the sect long ago. There was no need to make a special trip to Wanxianfang City for an ordinary elixir.
This elixir of dendrobium can be bought either in the sect or in Pingyangfang City.
Back at Wanxian Pavilion, Xu Changshou asked his maid Xiaoya about the pine tree, and got the same answer. It would be available only a month later.
This shows that the supplier of dendrobium may be from the same company, so we have to wait for a month.
After collecting eight of the nine medicinal materials, Xu Changshou was no longer in a hurry and returned to Wanxian Pavilion to wait quietly for the auction to begin.
Every auction in Wanxian Pavilion will have many common elixirs for sale. Maybe you can get Dendrobium pine trees at the auction. Ordinary elixirs like this will not be advertised before the auction. Therefore, Xiaoya didn't know if there was any dendrobium in the auction.
A few more days passed.
On the eve of the auction, Xiaoya ran over and told Xu Changshou that she saw the auction list and said it contained Dendrobium pine trees.
Xu Changshou was relieved.
The next day, the auction started as scheduled.
Xu Changshou came earlier and took a seat at the front.
Before long, the auction venue and private rooms were already overcrowded.
This time, a lot of foundation-building monks came, and there were not enough private rooms. Many of the monks sat directly on the futons at the venue.
Because this auction was held next to the Foundation Establishment Fellowship Exchange Meeting, many Foundation Establishment monks came to join in the fun.
Not long after.
He Shuixiu wore a red evening dress and dressed up to host the auction.
"Thank you all for coming to my Wanxian Pavilion auction. Without further ado, let's get started."
"Now, here's the first auction item."
At this time, Xiaoya walked onto the auction stage carrying a tray. On the tray was a green and blue handkerchief.
"Fellow Taoists, please take a look."
He Shuixiu picked up the blue handkerchief and explained: "This is a magic weapon, a Feng Shui magic weapon, called Qingyun Pa. This Qingyun Pa is both offensive and defensive, and can also be used for traveling..."
He Shuixiu endlessly introduced the various functions of Qingyun Pa.
Below, Xu Changshou was a little surprised. He didn't expect Wanxian Pavilion to be so powerful. The first auction item was a magic weapon.
However, it is understandable that this magic weapon is obviously intended to be sold to those foundation-building monks, and ordinary low-level monks cannot afford it.
Xu Changshou would not buy it even if he could afford it. His money must be reserved to buy the medicinal materials for refining the Foundation Establishment Pill. Xu Changshou would not buy any magic weapon before gathering the medicinal materials for the Foundation Establishment Pill.
Moreover, although this magical weapon has both offensive and defensive capabilities and can be used for traveling, this magical weapon is very ordinary.
The attribute of the magic weapon is Feng Shui attribute, whether it is attack or defense, it is unsatisfactory.
Of course, this magic weapon was specially made for female monks, and male monks would not use handkerchiefs as a magic weapon.
It's different for female monks. Any handkerchief they take out is a magic weapon. For female monks, this is a very high level of skill.
"Fellow Taoists, the starting price for this magical artifact is one thousand spiritual stones, please bid."
"I'll pay eleven hundred dollars."
"One thousand two hundred dollars."
"One thousand three hundred..."
Sure enough, as soon as He Shuixiu mentioned the bidding price, all the people bidding followed were female monks.
Soon, this magic weapon was auctioned off by a fat young female monk for 1,500 yuan.
Generally speaking, the starting price of a magic weapon is only about a thousand spiritual stones. To be honest, this magic weapon is very average. If sold, it would cost more than a thousand yuan.
But at auctions, the prices of many things will be artificially high, but not too high.
"Fellow Taoists, let's take a look at the second auction item. This is one..."
The auction was in full swing, and Xu Changshou felt drowsy after listening to it.
Xu Changshou didn't have much interest in these items in the auction.
The only thing that he is currently interested in is the magic weapon, but even if there is a magic weapon, Xu Changshou is reluctant to buy it.
Soon, more than a hundred items were auctioned at the auction. Xu Changshou took action once and bought a bow-tie hairpin. This was a pseudo-magic weapon that would actively defend itself when in danger. Xu Changshou took the photo and planned to give it to Li Linger.
"Fellow Taoists, please take a look at this auction item. This is a Dendrobium pine tree!"
Dendrobium!
Xu Changshou opened his eyes and looked towards the auction table. He saw a small, palm-high, vigorous plant with particularly bright green leaves in the tray held by Xiaoya.
"Finally arrived at Dendrobium."
Xu Changshou finally became interested.
"The starting price for this dendrobium is two spiritual stones. Fellow Taoists, please bid."
Dendrobium pine is relatively rare, and the starting price of two yuan is not high.
"Three spiritual stones."
Xu Changshou made the bid directly without saying anything.
"I'll pay four yuan!" an old woman followed suit.
"Five dollars!"
Xu Changshou continued to bid, and after five spiritual stones were offered, the old woman stopped following.
"Congratulations, this pine hu belongs to this fellow Taoist, Xiaoya."
"Yes!"
Xiaoya carried the tray and sent the pine hu to Xu Changshou, blinking her eyes and saying, "I didn't lie to you, there really is a pine hu."
"Thank you!"
Xu Changshou took the pine hu and put five spiritual stones on the tray. Xiaoya twisted her waist and left.
The auction continued, and it was crazy at the end. Among the ten finale items, seven were prepared for the great cultivators of foundation building, and there were three magic tools alone.
From beginning to end, Xu Changshou did not make any more moves.
After the auction, one day later, the third day was the exchange meeting for fellow Taoists of foundation building.
This exchange meeting was still held at the same auction venue as yesterday, but the layout was different.
Before the exchange meeting started, He Shuixiu brought people in. She brought two people in total, one was Xu Changshou, and the other was the maid named Xiaoya.
The venue at this time was completely different from the day before. All the cushions inside were gone, and a thick red carpet was laid on the ground.
The exchange meeting opened in the afternoon, and in the evening, people began to enter one after another.
Xu Changshou stayed in a corner, watching the great foundation-building monks coming and going, shivering a little.
Normally, it is not easy to meet a great foundation-building monk, but all the people who came today were great foundation-building monks.
As more and more people came, the atmosphere in the venue gradually became lively.
