Chapter 128 Qing Xiuzhu
Li Nian's eyes moved slightly. She could feel the vague gazes of these people, which were full of calculation and greed hidden deep inside.
She lowered her eyes. There were many powerful cultivators among these wandering cultivators. Most of them were in the Golden Core stage, and there were even a few in the Nascent Soul stage.
Li Nian was secretly shocked. It seemed that these people were waiting for the opportunity, and their intention to kill people and steal the treasure was obvious.
Yu Feichen was not a fool, so he naturally felt it. He pulled Li Nian straight into the Half Moon Pavilion.
After escaping from the watchful eyes of those people, Yu Feichen couldn't help but shake his body, his face full of disgust.
"Ni Ye, if you buy anything later, be careful of those people. They are not good people."
Li Nian nodded and looked at the lobby on the first floor. It was very large and could probably accommodate more than 600 people.
In addition to the first floor, the Half Moon Pavilion has a total of nine floors. There are private rooms on each floor from the second to the sixth floor. Powerful families and sects all come here.
Yu Feichen took Li Nian straight to the fifth floor and entered the private room at the head.
The decoration in the box is simple yet elegant, and you can see the panoramic view of the first-floor lobby through a thin curtain.
As soon as Yu Feichen entered the box, he sat on the chair like an old man, picked up the pastries on the table and stuffed them into his mouth.
Li Nian's mouth twitched as he watched. He lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, "Brother Yu, I'm going out for a walk."
Yu Feichen was stuffing grapes into his mouth when he heard the words and said vaguely, "There are a lot of people outside, be careful."
Li Nian waved his hand and got up to leave.
The auction had not started yet. Li Nian touched his chin, thought for a while, and then decisively walked towards the seventh floor.
As soon as I stepped onto the stairs, a monk suddenly appeared above me. He said solemnly, "Whoever trespasses here, please leave immediately."
Li Nian looked up, his tone calm and even, "I'm not trespassing, I just want to do business with you."
Hearing this, the man looked at Li Nian. The boy looked to be no more than a teenager. He must be joking.
Li Nian laughed, "Could it be that the dignified Half Moon Auction House relies on age to do business? This is completely different from what is said in the cultivation world!"
The man frowned. Although the boy was young, he exuded an irresistible aura.
He bowed and saluted, "Please wait a moment, sir, while I pass on the message."
Li Nian nodded slightly and stood on the stairs waiting. After a while, the man appeared again and led Li Nian to the seventh floor. After passing through several doors, they came to a private room.
The man stopped here and signaled Li Nian that he could go in.
Li Nian raised his eyebrows, turned around and walked in. After passing through a screen, he looked up and saw a man in a green shirt sitting beside the desk.
Without raising his head, a gentle voice rang out, "Young Master, why are you coming to me instead of preparing for the auction?"
Li Nian was stunned. It seemed that this person thought she was just here for a stroll. She chuckled, "Don't you think the manager believes that I'm here to do business with you?"
Upon hearing this, the man in green finally put down the teacup in his hand, raised his head and glanced at Li Nian.
He raised his eyebrows slightly and only agreed, "Oh? What kind of deal do you want to make with me, young master?"
Li Nian smiled and said, "Of course it's a big deal. Please ask the manager to send the others away."
The man in green was startled, his eyes no longer relaxed as before. "Young Master, be careful with your words and actions. If you deceive us, you know what will happen to you."
Li Nian waved the folding fan in his hand lightly, his expression indifferent, "Don't worry, sir, I wouldn't dare to do that."
Seeing that Li Nian did not seem to be pretending, the man in green waved his hand, signaling the people in the dark to retreat.
After personally pouring a cup of tea and handing it to Li Nian across from him, he said in a deep voice, "I wonder what the young master wants to trade?"
Li Nian picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said slowly, "Thunder Spirit Dew!"
The man in green was shocked all over, his heart beating violently. He clenched his slightly trembling hands, and there was a barely perceptible tremor in his steady voice.
"Young Master, you can't say that carelessly. Lei Linglu has been destroyed for many years. Be careful of your words."
Li Nian raised his eyes to look at him, his expression calm, "Since I dare to say it, I know the consequences. Can't the manager afford this business?"
The man in green sat up straight in an instant, his eyes fixed on Li Nian, "If I can't handle it, I'm afraid no one in this world of cultivation will dare to handle it!"
He cupped his hands and said, "But the young master also wants me to take a look. I have to verify whether it is true or not."
This was not an excessive request. Li Nian took out a white porcelain bottle from his spiritual consciousness and slightly opened the bottle mouth.
A pure thunder spirit energy emanated, containing a hint of ancient aura.
The green-shirted man's eyes suddenly lit up, his pupils dilated, and he saw the small white bottle in his eyes.
Li Nian corked the bottle tightly and said, "Manager, maybe you will believe me this time?"
The man in green had also seen the world, but he recovered to his previous appearance in just a few breaths.
He looked at the boy opposite with some complicated feelings, but it was surprising that a teenager could produce such a treasure.
He said seriously, "My name is Qing Xiuzhu, and I am the first-class manager of the Banyue Auction House. I wonder how you would like to make a deal?"
Li Nian tapped the table with his fingertips, as if he was thinking about something. "Manager Qing, what do you think we should do?"
A hint of surprise flashed in Qing Xiuzhu's eyes. This young man actually saw through his intentions. He shook his head in self-mockery. How could someone who could produce the Thunder Spirit Dew be fooled so easily?
"Sir, why don't you entrust the Thunder Spirit Dew to our bank and sell it at this auction? I'll split the proceeds of the spirit stones 60% to 40%?"
Li Nian raised his eyebrows slightly, "You four and I six?"
Qing Xiuzhu nodded. He thought this was already a good split. Ordinary people who did business with them would split the profits 50-50.
Li Nian curled his lips and said, "Manager Qing, what if I only accept 70%?"
Qing Xiuzhu was stunned, his eyebrows almost dropped in shock, and there was great shock in his words.
"Young Master, all other deals with us are split 50-50, and 64% is the biggest concession we can make!"
Li Nian took a sip of tea, his brows filled with indifference. "Manager Qing, this is Thunder Spirit Dew, which has been around for many years. Let's not talk about how much the transaction amount will be. Even if I buy and sell it with others, it will be the same."
After glancing at Qing Xiuzhu's somewhat anxious expression, he continued, "Besides, if Lei Linglu is auctioned at your auction house, your reputation will be further elevated. Am I going to pass 70%?"
Qing Xiuzhu was stunned. This young man was really smart. He looked at the porcelain bottle on the table, gritted his teeth and said
"Seventy percent is seventy percent, don't worry, young master."
After saying that, he stood up and hurriedly handed Li Nian a token, smiling and saying, "This is the highest-quality token of my auction house. After the auction, you only need to bring this token to claim your share."
Li Nian took the token, looked at it for a few times, and then put it into the storage ring.
Qing Xiuzhu was relieved when he saw that he accepted it. If the money slipped away from his hands, it would be better to kill him.
