Volume 1 Blood Stained Storm Chapter 31 Membership Acquired
"The city lord's secret agent?" Si Yufan looked sternly: "What's going on?"
The clerk broke free from Si Yufan's iron-like hands, coughed twice and said: "Lichuan City is located on the border, where there is a mixture of fish and dragons. In order to maintain the stability of the city, the city lord established a team of secret agents who hide in the market on weekdays."
Si Yufan was startled when he heard this: "Then when I asked you if you planned it all, you still acquiesced."
The clerk retorted awkwardly: "Yes, I did solve another of their strongholds earlier last night. I thought you were asking about that."
"Of course not, I thought you were in the same group..." Si Yufan couldn't complain, but he made such a big mistake.
The clerk's eyes widened when he heard this, and he waved his hand: "Why do I feel that you are more like a bad guy in comparison? You cut off Master Yanghua's hand when you came here.
I thought you went to have fun last night, how can any good citizen go to that place in the middle of the night?"
Si Yufan wiped away the sweat dripping from his forehead and changed the subject: "What was in the box you stole last night?"
The clerk pondered for a moment and said slowly: "There are some girls' records there, which is not very helpful in solving this matter. However, I got a message from another stronghold..."
He realized that he had said too much and quickly covered his mouth.
"What's the news? Tell me!" Si Yufan raised the knife and put it on his neck.
The clerk swallowed: "They plan to send people to the auction to compete for an item. I haven't found out what it is specifically."
Si Yufan raised his eyebrows: "How do you plan to investigate? Are you going to the auction house with you?"
The clerk nodded: "Yes, I used the name of the owner of this pharmacy to get members of the Tianyuan Chamber of Commerce."
The corners of Si Yufan's mouth raised slightly: "I want to make a deal with you."
"Can I say no?"
"cannot!"
…
On the only way to the auction house, Si Yufan, who was wearing a large black robe and covering his face in the shadow, was playing with a glass card in his hand and turned to Xiaobai and asked:
"Why are we in such a hurry to go to the auction house to register the elixir?"
Xiaobai turned around and glared at him, and said to him in her heart: "Is it possible that you can wait until the auction starts soon before telling people that you want to sell something?"
Si Yufan smiled awkwardly, looked up at the majestic building standing in the center of the city not far away, and exclaimed in amazement.
Arriving in front of the Tianyuan Chamber of Commerce, pedestrians were like ants, constantly coming in and out of the door. He had never seen such a strong popularity when he was in Sanshan Town.
Si Yufan rubbed his cheeks, inserted himself into the crowd, and followed the flow of people into the auction house.
He raised his eyes and looked at the magnificent scene inside, and couldn't help but cover the pockets on his waist.
I guess I can’t afford any of the items here, so I’d better stop looking at them!
Thinking of this, Si Yufan hurriedly found the staff of the Chamber of Commerce, and under his guidance, went to the auction item registration office.
Si Yufan pushed open the door and entered. There was only an old man sitting on a chair and taking a nap in the room.
He knocked on the table in front of the old man and said in a hoarse voice: "I'm going to auction something."
The old man stretched out, yawned and raised his fingers at him.
Si Yufan took out three jade bottles from his pocket and placed them gently on the table.
The old man grabbed the jade bottle impatiently, looked inside, stretched out his nose and sniffed at the mouth of the bottle, his face suddenly changed, he looked at Si Yufan with eyes full of awe, and asked cautiously: "Who are you?"
Alchemist?"
In order to make himself more like an alchemist, Si Yufan hugged his shoulders, snorted coldly, and did not answer his question.
"Can you please tell me the functions of these bottles of elixirs?" The old man shrank his neck and bowed.
Si Yufan nodded slightly, pointed at the three jade bottles in turn, and a hoarse voice came out from his throat:
"This can speed up the absorption of spiritual energy; this can temper the body and enhance the body's toughness and strength; and this can temporarily increase the combat effectiveness of the Qi training realm."
The old man bowed deeply to Si Yufan and said respectfully: "Some of the elixirs are beyond my ability to appraise. Please wait a moment. I will go and ask our speaker to come over."
"Go." After waving his hand, Si Yufan leaned on the back of the chair and fell asleep, asking Xiao Bai in his heart: "Master Bai, does the alchemist have such a high status?"
Xiaobai got his head out of his collar, raised his chin and replied proudly:
"That's natural. No matter where they are, alchemists and machine masters have a very high status. There are even some cities where the city gates have special passages, so you don't have to spend spiritual stones to stay and eat."
Si Yufan pondered for a moment: "Then if that's the case, if I ask them for a membership, can they give it to me?"
Xiaobai thought for a while and said: "It should... be possible."
Si Yufan slapped his forehead hard: "Then you still let me put in so much effort, and even put myself in it?"
"I forgot!" Xiaobai puffed up his chest and said confidently: "I'm not a human being, so how can I pay attention to human rules!"
Si Yufan sighed deeply.
After waiting for a while, the door was knocked, and the old man came in with a woman.
"Mr. Alchemist, this is Manager Ye of our auction house. She heard about your visit and came here to visit you and talk to you about the auction." The old man introduced him respectfully.
Si Yufan nodded, and the old man exited the room.
He picked up the tea cup and took a sip. Under the cover of his hood, he looked up and down at the so-called Manager Ye.
Manager Ye has an oval face, watery peach blossom eyes, a straight nose, and slightly curved red lips, showing the charm of a mature woman.
She is tall and tall, and her red skirt is tightly wrapped around her body, making her breasts look swollen. Her hips under her slender waist curve into a fascinating curve.
Far worse than Miss Lin...
When Si Yufan was sizing her up, Manager Ye was also sizing him up. After all, alchemists were in short supply and would be treated as guests no matter where they were.
Si Yufan didn't like being stared at, so he reached out and tapped the table a few times, and asked in a hoarse voice: "Do you think my elixir is still up to standard?"
Manager Ye picked up the jade bottle and injected a trace of spiritual energy along the mouth of the bottle, and the fragrance of elixirs suddenly overflowed in the room.
Her face gradually became serious, and she looked at Si Yufan with a bit more respect: "Senior's elixir is of excellent quality. Although it is a second-grade elixir, it faintly smells of a third-grade elixir. It will definitely sell well."
Price."
Si Yufan nodded slightly: "Then which day do you think is appropriate for the auction?"
Manager Ye thought for a moment and replied: "We will have a member-level auction in four days. If you think the time is convenient, we can help you arrange it for that day."
"Okay." Si Yufan took a sip of tea and said in a neutral tone.
Manager Ye hugged his fists and said, "According to the rules of the auction, we will deduct 20% of your income as commission."
Si Yufan put down his tea cup and waited for her next words without saying a word.
As expected, Manager Ye paused for a moment and continued: "I can make my own decision and only charge you half of it. I hope you will cooperate with us more in the future."
Then, she took out a gold card and handed it to Si Yufan:
"This is our highest-level member. With him, we will reserve the best private room for you in future member-level auctions.
Moreover, all the elixirs you auction in our Chamber of Commerce from now on will have a commission of only 10%, and everything you buy will be discounted by 10% of the price. I hope you can accept it!"
I still have one, can I get a discount on this one...
Si Yufan took the card, nodded and said, "I will come back in four days, farewell!"
After saying that, he walked straight out of Tianyuan Chamber of Commerce.
After returning to the inn, after eating the dinner cooked by Lin Xuefei, Si Yufan was about to enter meditation and practice when he heard someone knock on the window.
