Chapter 20 Du Mansion
In the small Yuanguang City, Zhenbao Tower is a gathering place for cultivators. Here, you may be able to buy something to your heart's content, and maybe gain some knowledge. There are countless rare treasures in the world.
As long as you can identify most of them, you can become the supervisor of Zhenbao Building. In order to prevent them from engaging in favor trading, most of these supervisors come from all over the country and have different identities. In some special circumstances, they will even hire foreign talents.
But this is just a small branch, so naturally it cannot be compared with the headquarters. However, the supervisor Du Fu is a smart and capable old man. This person is very deep in the city, but he can still maintain good popularity. This alone cannot
Not admirable.
A few days ago, he got a few Qi Deficiency Pills from elsewhere, and thought he could sell them at a good price. However, because the Hong family was well-informed, the patriarch Hong Zheng came to discuss with him personally, hoping to buy a few Qi Deficiency Pills at a more suitable price.
For the sake of Hong Feng, Dan Dufu agreed to Hong Zheng's matter.
This matter made Du Fu feel distressed for several days, but he finally returned the favor. Now it is only the price of a few Qi Deficiency Pills. If it waits until later, no one is sure what kind of request Hong Zheng will make.
Come.
Du Fu wandered in the room, thinking repeatedly about how to sell the remaining Qi Deficiency Pills at a good price. Suddenly, he heard the sound of moving outside the door. He followed the sound and saw a panting person.
The guy ran in.
"Sir, no - it's not good!" The waiter looked to be in his twenties and dressed simply, but his face was flushed at the moment, and large drops of sweat were rolling on his forehead.
"Xiaodong, what's going on? Speak slowly." Looking at the panicked Xiaodong, Du Fu's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that the vehicle transporting the treasures had an accident? However, he still pretended to be calm. After all, he is a supervisor, but
Don't show nervousness casually, otherwise it will have a negative impact on your subordinates. People who want to be supervisors have been queuing up at the back. If Du Fu hadn't had extensive contacts over the years, I'm afraid the supervisor position would have been eliminated by the past.
His subordinates took it away.
"It is said that a new auction is going to be opened across from us. The opponent seems to be very rich. He has bought more than 30 shops at high prices. They are almost integrated." Xiaodong said while wiping his sweat.
"No wonder, no wonder, I said it has been so lively these days, so this is what happened." Du Mansion looked like he suddenly realized it, and murmured. In the past few days, I saw many workers hurriedly going out across the street. It turned out that they were renovating.
"There are more than thirty people, that's worth the entire Zhenbao Building." The strength of the opponent caught Du Mansion off guard. Such a big deal would be impossible for someone with a rich family background.
Waving A Dong to leave, Du Fu fell into deep thought again. Auctions are different from ordinary markets. Things sold at auctions are often worth several times more than the real objects. For buyers, naturally they don't want to spend so much more.
Many. But for those who offer treasures, auctions are an excellent place, where the items sold at auction can often be rewarded with satisfaction.
"It seems that the source of treasures will be cut off in the future." If a Zhenbao Building loses the source of its treasures, it will be like losing its source of running water. It will lose its vitality in the industry and its competitiveness will also be lost. This is very important for Zhenbao Building.
It was undoubtedly a catastrophe, but seeing that the auction was about to take place, there was no way to stop it.
"Humph, we must suppress it at the initial stage!" Du Fu smiled, as if he had thought of a clever plan. With his many years of business experience, he might be able to give the auction a try.
But it was said that Hong Zheng and Hong Meng and his entourage came to Zhenbao Building early and watched the elixirs in the Dancao Building on the second floor. The elder was beaming with joy and took his two sons to look around, and occasionally gave some advice.
What kind of grass is this and what effect does it have? What kind of medicine is it and what are its characteristics? It seems as if the entire Zhenbao Building belongs to their family.
Hong Meng followed the second elder and got to know a lot of medicinal herbs and pills. Although he couldn't afford them now, they might be of great use in the future. He would also listen to the explanations of the first elder, but he could only listen.
Just a few words.
"Huh? Why is the patriarch missing?" When Hong Meng looked at a bunch of herbs, he found that Hong Zheng had disappeared at some point.
"The patriarch must be at the director of the Zhenbao Building." Just as Hong Meng was muttering, Hong Ruolian seemed to have heard Hong Meng's words, and then deduced. The absence of the patriarch can only mean that the matter of the elixir is not over yet, and he must be looking for it now.
The supervisor went to discuss it.
"Hey, I didn't expect that you can actually practice, and your spiritual power is not weak." What happened last night was still fresh in Hong Ruolian's memory. Hong Meng's performance at that time was so unexpected that not only she was surprised
, even the patriarchs and elders find it incredible. The Chaos Body is a legendary body that cannot be cultivated. No one can break the legend. Only the supreme gods can possess the magic power of the Chaos Body.
"Haha, it's just a fluke." Hong Meng said with a slight smile. He didn't want to answer directly, and he didn't want to tell others his secret for the time being. If you look into it carefully, Hong Meng felt that it was a bit of a fluke that he could barely practice. However, within his body,
the chill,
The death energy is very strange. One cannot exert the power of the cold death energy. Their power cannot be controlled by Hongmeng. The other is that compressing and tempering the cold death energy like him is just the preliminary use of the cold death energy.
Its power remains to be studied in the future.
The situation in Dantian made Hong Meng extremely embarrassed. The cold death energy became a decoration, and for some reason it suppressed the little bit of chaotic energy. He wanted to move them around the meridians, but he couldn't do it, let alone use them.
He fought. However, Hong Meng believed that it was because he didn't have the right skills. If he had the help of skills, his cultivation would probably improve very quickly.
"Lucky?" Hong Ruolian'e frowned, obviously not believing Hong Meng's words. If the Chaos Body wants to practice, she has also heard of the difficulties involved. If it were just a fluke, it would be hard to believe.
"That's always a good thing." Hong Meng smiled, looked at the second elder who was walking away, and then fixed his gaze on Hong Ruolian.
"Haha, did I say it was a bad thing?" Hong Ruolian looked at the black-robed figure and said with relief. It's best not to inquire about things that others don't want to say. Maybe you know something, so it's better to keep it a secret for peace of mind.
Hong Ruolian turned to look at the second elder on the other side, then moved her steps to follow.
"Why haven't the Qi Deficiency Pills been put out yet?" the second elder asked a waiter. Although they were the first to arrive, people from other families had already arrived at this time. If they didn't buy it as soon as possible, then in the face of so many buyers, no one would be able to
There is no guarantee that the supervisor will not retaliate.
"Haha, elder, you also know that the Qi Deficiency Pill is too precious. If you take it out too early, something will inevitably happen. So when the buyers arrive, the supervisor will ask for the Qi Deficiency Pill." The clerk was not nervous at all.
, said slowly, patience is not small.
"Clan leader——" Hong Meng followed the second elder. Looking around, he happened to see the clan leader appearing at the top of the stairs.
However, hearing Hong Zheng's somewhat muffled footsteps and his angry face, Hong Meng guessed that the clan leader must have disappointed everyone, and perhaps there was no agreement.
"How's it going? Clan leader, can you get it?" The elder saw Hong Zheng's figure and asked hurriedly.
"Hey, that guy has forgotten the kindness of his predecessors. We originally promised at least five pills, but now I'm afraid it's hard to guarantee three." Hong Zheng sighed and said angrily. Thinking of Du Fu's ugly face,
Hong Zheng was furious, as if
If it weren't for the care of the elders, not only would the director of the Zhenbao Building not be from the Du family, but he would also fall into the hands of the Hong family. The situation at that time was a bit complicated, and Hong Zheng didn't know the reason for it. He only knew this.
The Du family still owes the debt of gratitude.
"He's gone too far!" The elder said with a change of expression when he heard this. The three Qi Deficiency Pills are indeed difficult to distinguish among the young people in the clan, especially the elder's share. If he really buys three pills, it will be a big deal.
The elder can only get one.
The second elder had a calm expression and opened his mouth to say something, but when the words reached his lips, he swallowed them back immediately.
"Haha, the Hong family came so early!"
While everyone in the Hong family was angry about the quantity of Qi Deficiency Pills, a loud voice came from the stairs. A figure in black robes walked slowly towards where Hong Zheng was, with his hands behind his back.
Staring at the black robe, Hong Meng clenched his hands, with a hint of coldness in his eyes, and said bitterly: "Qing Zhao!" He will not forget the hatred of that day, and he was originally a little shabby.
His tomb was no one cared about in the barren mountains and wilderness, but the damn Qing family, regardless of the obstruction of the Hong family, smashed the tombstone and broke the tomb.
The sworn hatred will never be forgotten. However, Hong Meng did not let hatred go to his head and did not immediately seek trouble for Qing Zhao. Instead, he endured it until the day when he had the strength to defeat Qing Zhao.
"Hmph, kid, just tell me if you don't want to live, so that I can save you from this humiliation in this world." Naturally, Hong Meng's eyes couldn't escape Qingzhao's notice. At this moment, Qingzhao squinted and looked at
Hong Meng was hit repeatedly.
"Haha, don't take it to heart, Chief Qing. We don't need to mention what happened last time." Hong Zheng saw Qing Zhao's unkind expression, and then looked at Hong Meng's hateful expression, and quickly stepped forward to dissuade him.
Seeing that the Chaos Body in his clan was able to cultivate, Hong Zheng naturally did not want his hope for the future to be stifled, so he acted as a shield for Hong Meng and covered Hong Meng behind.
"I'm afraid I'll get my hands dirty!" Qingzhao certainly wouldn't take a small family to heart. He could kill a small family like the Hong family in seconds with just one strike. He said and walked away.
"Are your hands clean?"
Qingzhao had just taken five or six steps when he heard a familiar voice echoing in his ears.
