Chapter 738 Isn’t My Li Ci Too Fierce?
…
Compared to the Hanyue Immortal Dynasty, the Silla Immortal Dynasty seems to be more prosperous, and its customs and habits are also very different from the Hanyue Immortal Dynasty.
Most of the buildings here are mixed structures of jade, stone, and spirit wood. At first glance, the architectural styles of certain eras in the Shenwu World seem similar, but upon closer inspection, they are quite different. The floors are not too high, but there are only a few buildings that are over 100 feet tall. The buildings are tall, but they are all very delicate and delicate, with a slender, gorgeous and delicate beauty.
The decorative patterns on the eaves and doorposts always reveal their unique and rich historical heritage. If you ask anyone casually, they will often have their own special meanings.
And so are the clothes.
Although most of the people here are wearing robes, ranging from wide-sleeved robes to narrow-sleeved attire, their style is completely different from that of the Shenwu Dynasty. You don’t even have to look closely, but the temperament is completely different at a glance.
And their language is also very different from that of Shenwu World. It cannot be said that it is completely another language. In fact, it can be heard that the language here belongs to the same language system as that of Shenwu World, but in the specific pronunciation The tone of voice, as well as the choice of words and sentences, are completely different.
Wang Shouzhe was in this fairy city, walking in the rain, carefully observing and exploring the various features of this foreign land, and he felt that it was quite different.
Here, they knew no one, and no one knew them. This strange and fresh foreign feeling made Wang Shouzhe feel that his heart, which had been silent for a long time, became alive.
But this strange and fresh feeling quickly disappeared.
After rounding a street corner, Wang Shouzhe and Immortal Emperor Concubine Tiange suddenly stopped in their tracks, both looking at something in front of them with strange expressions.
What appeared in front of them was a newly opened large restaurant.
The entrance of the restaurant was decorated with lights and colorful decorations, and it was quite lively with people coming and going. The entrance hall was also quite luxuriously decorated, and many aristocratic families came to send congratulatory gifts. Among them, flower baskets of exotic flowers filled the streets, and the flower baskets were Wearing elegant colorful ribbons, they all have the words "such and such aristocratic family, such and such a noble family" and so on.
Obviously, the person who opened this restaurant had some background, otherwise it would be difficult to create such a grand scene in a place like Xinluo Xiandu where every inch of land is so valuable.
All this is considered normal. After all, no matter what world you are in, there will eventually be people with great connections.
However, above the lintel of the restaurant named [Yikang Food Palace], there was a huge banner that read "Li Ci Xiaoxianjun's three-star food recommendation".
Li Ci? Xiaoxianjun? Samsung?
For a moment, Wang Shouzhe's expression became a little hard to explain.
He is familiar with "Li Ci", and he also knows "Samsung Food" very well, but what the hell is "Xiao Xianjun"?
Wang Shouzhe also knew more or less the various names of the Holy Realm. Xiaoxianjun refers to the true immortals who have inherited the Immortal Sutra but have not yet cultivated to the true immortal realm.
For example, Wang Shouzhe, according to the custom here, can be called "Little Immortal Lord". If he inherits the Holy Picture after reaching Lingxu Realm, he will be properly called "His Royal Highness the Holy Son".
"Congratulations, young master, I didn't expect that girl Li Ci has done so well in the Holy Realm and is already a little fairy." Yuan Tiange chuckled, "And it seems that her influence is not small in this Silla Immortal Dynasty. She The invented three-star food recommendation was also regarded as a gimmick, so it seems that it has been recognized by people by promoting it so solemnly.”
"Hmph! It's in vain that I have worried about her for nearly two hundred years. When I see her, I will teach her a lesson." Wang Shouzhe said arrogantly, but in his heart he breathed a sigh of relief and raised his legs. Walking to the [Yikang Food Palace], "Let's go and find out more about her."
Immortal Emperor Concubine Tiange walked in with a smile on her face.
It feels good to be able to go on a business trip with Shouzhe and act alone this time.
The food palace had just opened at this time, and it was a busy time. There was an endless stream of people coming in, and there were not many empty seats.
But Wang Shouzhe and Yan Tiange had extraordinary temperaments, and they were no ordinary people at first glance. The shopkeeper, who was good at observing faces, immediately greeted them personally and introduced them to the special delicacies in the restaurant with a smile. They were both from Ma Liu Di. Find an acquaintance for them and find a way to change the position next to the window.
Yan Tiange casually ordered a few extremely expensive dishes, and then asked the shopkeeper to recommend a few classic dishes and wines. They were all high-quality spiritual fish and meat ingredients. After this meal, I am afraid it would be a top-quality meal. Even the spiritual stones can't stop it.
What is the concept and value of a high-grade spiritual stone?
That can be exchanged for tens of thousands of Immortal Crystals or millions of dry gold. The average profit of such a large [Chuannan Restaurant] is about this much per day!
To be more specific, a magical ancestor from a third-grade family does not seek to improve, but only maintains his cultivation level. He can sustain himself for a whole year with a little frugality.
Of course, if the magical ancestor wants to take a step forward, his annual consumption will be endless.
This is also the reason why most of the magical ancestors of third-grade families only stay in the early stages of cultivation. Let alone the issue of qualifications and bloodline, they cannot support it even with financial resources.
If you really have that kind of money, you might as well save more to become a family legacy, train more juniors, and strive to achieve the inheritance of double magical powers and three magical powers as soon as possible!
The shopkeeper suddenly smiled like Maitreya Buddha, secretly sighing at the viciousness of his eyes.
These two were indeed top distinguished guests, and they were treated with great care.
"Shopkeeper, who is this little Immortal Li Ci?" Wang Shouzhe took a sip of the spirit tea carelessly, then frowned slightly and put down the tea cup.
There is no way, Wang Shouzhe drinks all kinds of top-notch fairy tea in Shenwu World on weekdays. It is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality. His mouth has long been fed.
The shopkeeper's expression tightened as he looked at his face, and he was even more awe-struck for this young master with an indescribable temperament: "Master Qi, when it comes to this little fairy Li Ci, his background is quite big. .”
"I heard that she is the noble bloodline left by the Si family of the Tianrui Saint Clan. When she was in decline, she changed her surname to a king and could not even afford to eat. My son Situ Xuejia was very kind to her, so he treated her everywhere. Our young master takes care of you."
The bloodline of the Si family of the Tianrui Saint Clan? Change your surname to king? Wang Shouzhe's frown deepened. What kind of nonsense is this?
"With the care of Little Immortal Li Ci, Master Jia of our family simply dropped out of Yikang Academy Liu Shui Jian Mai and devoted himself to collecting delicious recipes from all over the world. He opened a [Yikang Food Palace] specifically for Little Immortal Li Ci. You tasted the good and bad, and gradually the business became more and more prosperous, and many chain stores were opened. As a result, our Yikang Sanpin Situ family has risen because of this, and its development momentum has been advancing rapidly."
"But the good times didn't last long..." The shopkeeper sighed as he spoke and began to talk about what happened next.
Later, Little Immortal Lord Li Ci was scolded for pretending to be of Si's bloodline and was kicked out of the house. Some of the friends she had made with her suffered disaster, and many of them drew a clear line with Little Immortal Lord.
However, the young master in their family, Mr. A, treated Xiao Xianjun the same way, and as a result, he was squeezed out and suppressed in various ways. In the end, Yikang Food Palace collapsed on a large scale, which almost affected the entire Situ family.
But just when the Situ family was in the most critical situation, Little Immortal Lord Li Ci was spotted by the Holy Lord of Yunhaidongtian, and was accepted as a disciple of Guanmen. He passed it on with the Immortal Sutra. From then on, Little Immortal Lord Li Ci began to fly again. Not only did Tianruisi come to apologize in person, but she also treated her like a legitimate lady and sent a legitimate immortal to be her follower.
After Situ's magical ancestor and Situ Xuejia heard about it, they immediately made a decisive decision and sold their property to raise funds. They spent several years rushing to Yunhai Cave Heaven to pay homage to the Little Immortal Lord. While congratulating her, they also told her about their experiences over the years. Bitterness and tears.
Little Immortal Lord Li Ci missed the old friendship and gave Situ Xuejia's [Yikang Food Palace] a three-star rating with a stroke of her pen.
With her strong support, after Situ Xuejia returned to the Silla Immortal Dynasty, Yikang Food Palace rose again. With the support of Crown Prince Yuan Zheng, it directly opened a head office in this most prosperous place.
Following the shopkeeper's narration.
Wang Shouzhe was stunned for a moment after hearing this. The big girl has really had some ups and downs in the past two hundred years, but she has also been prosperous. She was so lucky that she hugged a saint. thick thighs...
As for the [Cloud Sea Cave Sky], Wang Shouzhe had also heard [Si Wuyou] "explain" that it was a transcendent force within the Tianrui Holy Dynasty. There must be at least a dozen real fairyland bosses, and the Lord of the Cave Sky... It is an existence comparable to the Holy Emperor level.
The eldest girl is really a master with deep blessings, and she can be like this.
"Master..." the shopkeeper pointed out the window and said, "That is our Master Situ Xuejia. Well, he seems to be welcoming Crown Prince Yuan Zheng... Excuse me..."
After that, the shopkeeper hurriedly resigned.
Wang Shouzhe glanced at Situ Xuejia casually, and he roughly knew what he was like.
Around the time when the Holy Emperor established the Immortal Palace system, it was the Holy Domain Academy system that was used as a reference. The academy system of the Silla Immortal Dynasty was very different from that of the Hanyue Immortal Dynasty. Yikang Academy was also a county-level academy.
Since that Situ Xuejia was once just a student of the County Academy, he was just an ordinary genius after all. Now he looks a bit middle-aged and prosperous. His cultivation has reached the second or third level of the Purple Mansion Realm. He has probably improved his bloodline. Arrived at the Great Tianjiao.
However, this person is a very good dancer. It is not easy for him to be so prosperous just by hugging Li Ci's thigh.
As for the other young man next to Situ Xuejia, he is probably the "Crown Prince Yuan Zheng". He seems to be quite upright in appearance, and his cultivation seems to be quite advanced, but under Wang Shouzhe's spiritual thoughts, he can clearly understand I saw that it looked like the first or second level of Lingxu Realm.
However, as both heirs to the Immortal Emperor, the prince's magnanimity is not comparable to that of the Crown Princess Suiyun, or even to the Demon Emperor's heir, Crown Prince Jingming. After all, although Shentu Jingming was usually unconventional, he had fought on the battlefield and achieved various great achievements. He was unambiguous in his work.
Not to mention Suiyun, whether it is war or handling political affairs, he is a first-class existence. Her level of diligence is such that even Wang Baosheng, the new generation "King of Volume" of the Wang family, respects her very much and regards her as his idol and role model.
But this is normal.
Nowadays, the whole circle of Tianrui Holy Dynasty is relatively peaceful. Even if there are frictions between the surrounding immortal dynasties, they are just small fights. They are not always in crisis like the Shenwu World.
Both Suiyun and Shentu Jingming were trained in the flames of war, and their magnanimity was naturally not comparable to that of a prince who was born in a peaceful world.
Wang Shouzhe was quite surprised by this meal.
Although the ingredients are far from "top quality", the craftsmanship and taste are good, most of which were trained by Li Ci sincerely.
During this period, Situ Xuejia, a long-sleeved man who was good at dancing, also came over to "toast and make friends" after hearing from the shopkeeper that there was a noble gentleman here. However, Wang Shouzhe responded indifferently and had no intention of contacting Li Ci for his sake. He only slightly revealed that he was traveling to expand his knowledge.
But as a result, Situ Xuejia became more cautious and awed, and specially gave Wang Shouzhe an invitation, saying that it was an invitation to the auction held by the "Shenbao Palace" branch in Silla Immortal Dynasty.
This branch usually holds an auction only once every eight years, and the items usually auctioned are just like that. But this time, Situ Xuejia said that there would be an auction of good things, and maybe the young master would be interested.
The main purpose of Wang Shouzhe's visit to the Holy Land was really to "enhance his knowledge". As for trivial matters such as gathering information, comparing prices, etc., his subordinates would naturally complete them.
He just had to wait for news.
Anyway, he had nothing to do after drinking and eating, so he simply went to take a look.
The Shenbao Palace branch is also located in the most prosperous place in the Immortal Capital, not far from the [Yikang Food Palace].
Wang Shouzhe and Immortal Emperor Concubine Tiange had dinner, strolled casually to the Shenbao Palace branch, and then entered with the invitation.
The decoration inside the Shenbao Hall branch is obviously a level higher than that of Yikang Food Palace. It is more grand and luxurious. Even the paintings on the dome beams are more majestic and gorgeous, fully demonstrating the heritage of the Shenbao Hall.
It was not long before the auction started, and the venue was already full of people. In the special private rooms above the venue, most of the lights have been turned on, and it is obvious that someone is already inside.
However, Situ Xuejia's invitation was just an ordinary invitation, and there was no private room treatment. He and Yuan Tiange were only assigned a separate table in the auction hall. The waiter served fresh melons and tea and then withdrew.
By the way, Wang Shouzhe has not participated in an auction for many, many years. Now many matters are handled by his descendants. As an Immortal Emperor, it was impossible for Yan Tiange to go to the auction. The last time she participated in an auction was probably thousands of years ago, when she was still a princess or princess.
The two of them were unusually interested and observed their surroundings.
The standards of this auction are not low. Every table is led by at least one supernatural power monk. As for those VIP boxes, those entering and exiting were led by at least one person from the Lingxu Realm.
This time, everyone obviously got "inside information" and knew that there were good things for auction, so the scene was quite grand.
Not long after, the auction started under the auspices of a veiled Lingxu realm female monk.
After some simple greetings and warm-up, she officially started the auction: "Next, please bring out our first auction item, the magical treasure - [Purple Jade Flute]. This is a rare magical magical treasure with a musical range. , the starting price is one top-grade spiritual stone, and each increase in price must not be less than one top-grade spiritual stone."
This price...
Wang Shouzhe and Yan Tiange looked at each other.
The prices do seem to be much lower than those in Shenwu World. The magical spiritual treasures in Shenwu World will definitely not start with less than three top-quality spiritual stones.
At this time, everyone in the venue had already started bidding.
In just one cup of tea, the price of the purple jade flute has been raised from Yi Ji Ling to Yi Ji Ling Twenty-one Shang Ling. But after that, the price became somewhat unaffordable.
"One extreme spirit and thirty superior spirits."
Seeing this, Yan Tiange directly raised a sign to bid.
The previous bidder took one look at Wang Shouzhe's table, hesitated briefly and then gave up. The price of one extreme spirit and thirty superior spirits is really a bit high. There is no need to fight for a supernatural spirit treasure.
In this way, Yan Tiange won the [Purple Jade Flute] at a very good price.
She smiled and said through the message: "Young master, don't be ridiculous. Although our Yu family has many magical treasures, we need more people. And with one more magical treasure, the overall strength of the human race will be stronger."
"Your Majesty, when transmitting the message, don't let the young master come to the young master." Wang Shouzhe replied, "I can understand your approach. We are facing the threat of the demon clan. The physical fitness of the human race is far less powerful than the demon clan. The stronger the weapon, the natural The stronger.”
"Young Master, we have to follow the established rules when transmitting messages." After a slight glance with her pretty eyes, Yan Tiange continued to transmit the message, "There is a saint in this sanctuary. If you are hiding in the dark and overhear it, What should we do with our message transmission? Master, don’t be careless."
"I understand, Tiange."
Wang Shouzhe nodded slightly, still assuming the posture of a mysterious young man, drinking tea leisurely, without even the slightest desire to raise a sign to bid.
As the auction continued, Yan Tiange gradually showed the craziness of a shopping girl. Basically, whenever she saw magical treasures at the right price, as well as elixirs, talismans, secret treasures and other items, she would raise her placard. All except one are included in the bag.
Just one word, bold!
These things are indeed much cheaper than Shenwu World. If Yan Tiange goes back and sells it at the price of Shenwu World, the profit will be more than double.
Some people say that Wang Shouzhe and Yan Tiange are both the top figures of the human race. They should focus on the overall situation and not buy low and sell high to cheat other families.
But this is exactly the problem. If everything is sold according to the Holy Land price after returning, not to mention that it will be sold out immediately. It will also cause an avalanche in the price of high-end items in the Shenwu World. The treasures and elixirs originally collected by each family will instantly depreciate in value. too much.
What's more, it will directly defeat the weapon refining, alchemy, formation and other systems of each family, leaving them with no way to survive. After all, the civilization inheritance of the Holy Domain has not been epoch-making. Not only is the average level of weapon refining and alchemy formations higher, but the system is also more complete. The refined products are also diverse and of high quality. If the price is cheaper, who can Are you still willing to buy the local items from Shenwu World that are of average quality and expensive?
This will cause a fatal blow to the development of related industrial chains in the Shenwu world.
In addition, what about the maintenance costs of the Great Teleportation Array, personnel organization costs, channel opening costs for twelve Immortal Spirit Stones, and other miscellaneous costs?
Therefore, in the Holy Land Development Alliance composed of the Wang family, the Yu family, the Shentu family, and the Baibao Pavilion of the old man Tianji, the goods sold back will be sold at a slightly lower price than the normal price.
In this way, each family can be indirectly armed and powerful, and the profits generated can also be used to obtain more funds to purchase more materials from the sanctuary, which can be used to build and strengthen more armies and accumulate a stronger foundation.
And like the Wang family, if they have a lot of resources, they can cultivate more talents and troops, and they can also use the extra money earned to vigorously encourage and promote the cultivation of Wang's high-quality Lingmi and Linggu, and increase the income of the vast number of aristocratic families.
All kinds of high-quality spiritual rice, all kinds of minerals and other basic materials are all more expensive in the Holy Realm. On the contrary, some high-end elixirs are much cheaper than in the Divine Martial World. Obviously, the development of high-end elixirs in Sanctuary is more mature than that of Shenwu World. The related high-end elixir cultivation technology and the scale of industries related to the cultivation of high-end elixirs are also larger.
In fact, this is normal.
In the world of Shenwu, high-end elixirs, especially elixirs of the seventh grade and above, have extremely high requirements for the growth environment. Not only are the cultivation difficult, the cultivation cycle is also long, and the consumption of resources during the cultivation process is also huge. For ordinary aristocratic families, There is simply no ability or financial resources to cultivate it, so to this day, only the royal families of major countries and the first-level or above families of the Immortal and Demon Dynasties specialize in cultivating high-end elixirs.
As for ordinary feudal countries, even if they put all their efforts into cultivating high-end elixirs, the number of high-end elixirs they can cultivate is very limited. They may not even be able to supply themselves, so how can they be sold to outsiders?
Even though Yu's Baicao Garden is already known as the largest elixir garden in the Shenwu world, the output of high-end elixirs is still very limited.
This has also resulted in the high-end elixirs in the world of Shenwu being in a state of long-term supply exceeding demand, and prices naturally remain high.
In fact, not only high-end elixirs, but also items such as treasure books and Taoist artifacts, for which the supply is far less than the demand, are much more expensive in the Shenwu World than in the Sanctuary. As for the immortal artifacts, they have a price but no market. No one will sell them at all.
Basic supplies are the opposite.
The prices of basic materials such as ordinary spiritual rice are often affected by many factors. The more prosperous a place is, the more diverse the opportunities for making money are. Planting ordinary spiritual rice is not very profitable, and there are few people willing to plant it. Coupled with the increase in labor costs, the price will naturally increase due to the addition of various factors. Higher than Shenwu World.
Of course, this is just a general statement, and the actual situation is much more complicated than this.
The resources of Lingmi Ling Cereals are renewable resources, and they are Wang Shouzhe's own advantage, so he must seize this point.
Of course, as the number of various treasures in Shenwu World increases, the prices will gradually decline over time, and finally gradually become balanced. These are normal market self-regulation methods, and are naturally the best.
Of course, these are all things for later, let’s not mention them for now.
Now at the auction, Yan Tiange was too aggressive and wanted to buy everything he saw, hardly giving other families a chance, which naturally attracted public outrage.
"Ahem, Tiange." Wang Shouzhe couldn't stand it any longer and secretly said, "That's almost enough. We need to give people some soup to drink."
Purchasing all kinds of things and collecting valuable treasure resources is a long-term job, and it also requires careful planning to purchase more resources at the lowest possible cost. Naturally, there is someone who is responsible for it, and it is not the two of him and Yuan Tiange who should do it. Things to do.
However, as the last final item and the big axis came on stage, Wang Shouzhe couldn't hold back and participated in the auction himself.
There is no other reason. The final product is a Taoist artifact, and the big axe is a treasure book.
The Wang family has a lot of Taoist artifacts and treasures, but the supply is still far beyond the demand. Didn't you see, in Wang Anye's sword formation, in order to save resources of Taoist weapons and magical spiritual treasures, many magic weapon-level swords are used.
The most important thing is that these two items are not expensive to sell. The starting price of the knife-like Taoist weapon was only thirteen Jiling, and was finally won by Wang Shouzhe for Nineteen Jiling. The book is awesome. The starting price is one Immortal Spirit Stone and sixty top grade Spirit Stones. Each time the price is increased, it must not be less than one Ultimate Spirit Stone.
It stands to reason that treasures of this level are unlikely to appear in auctions of this level.
Perhaps it is precisely because of this that many first-grade and super-first-grade families have been attracted. They all got the news in advance, "collected enough" fairy spirit stones, and worked hard to prepare to add another line of Lingxu inheritance to the family.
However, the imagined "fierce" competition did not happen at all.
When Wang Shouzhe held up a placard and shouted out the price of three fairy stones in an understatement, all the competing families were dumbfounded.
By this time, Wang Shouzhe and Yan Tiange had completely become the most beautiful girls in the auction house. I don't know how many spiritual thoughts had swept over Wang Shouzhe and Yan Tiange in a subtle way.
"Master, did you agree to be more low-key?" Yan Tiange couldn't help but laugh as she messaged him, "You don't want me to buy it because you want to buy it yourself."
"It was so cheap that I couldn't help but pick it up, but it seems to have aroused hostility." Wang Shouzhe laughed.
In the world of Shenwu, it is not easy to get a tome. The main reason is that each top family only has one or two, which is the basis for the survival of the family. They will not sell the tome for anything.
Unless the family is really in decline, or has committed a serious crime of treason and has the house confiscated, the treasure book will be leaked. But such a two-part masterpiece is usually divided up as soon as it comes out. How can it be the turn of outsiders to film it?
"Hostile?" Yan Tiange chuckled and said, "In that case, we can start to implement the second part of the plan. Forget it, I won't cheat those families who are unwilling to take risks, lest those families will not Be careful and you will be in danger.”
After saying that, the smile on Yan Tiange's face suddenly faded, and the momentum in his body exploded, and a vast aura shot straight into the sky.
The terrifying pressure of the True Immortal also enveloped the entire audience at this moment, its power was brilliant, like the power of God.
Amid the pressure, her solemn and majestic voice echoed throughout the entire Divine Treasure Hall branch: "How brave! How dare you spy on my young master with your spiritual thoughts? Are you tired of living?"
"What a wonderland!"
The masked woman who was hosting the auction was so frightened that her hands trembled and the auction mallet in her hand fell to the ground.
In an instant, everyone present was silent, too frightened to even take a breath.
No one expected that a true immortal would appear at an auction of this level.
"Don't be surprised."
At this time, Wang Shouzhe's gentle voice also sounded in the Shenbao Palace branch.
He stood up gracefully, raised his sleeves apologetically, cupped his hands in all directions and said, "The Taoist artifact and treasure book just now are suitable for a junior in the family. I took the photo because my hands were itchy. Don't blame me."
As he said that, he looked at Yan Tiange again, his tone slightly displeased: "Tiange, how many times have I told you, when you go out, you should act more restrained and don't be so domineering."
Just by singing in harmony, the image of a humble and well-educated mysterious young master, and the image of a domineering and powerful true fairy maid have been established.
Such a combination is truly mind-boggling.
In particular, the masked woman who was hosting the auction looked at Wang Shouzhe with great concentration, her eyes full of excitement, and she was thoughtful, not knowing what she was thinking about.
…
