I'm sorry, I'm a little better

Chapter 226 Dilemma
The next day, after the Mo family's affairs were settled, Chen Ze left Qingyang Sect quietly.

A few days later, Chen Ze, who had changed his clothes, arrived at the border of Lingzhou.

After entering Lingzhou City, he went straight to Wanyin Trading Company, intending to say hello to Xia Yunqing first. However, before he entered the trading house, he noticed something was wrong inside the trading company through his spiritual consciousness.

Due to the approaching demonic catastrophe, many casual cultivators have come to the Human Emperor Territory in the past year, and Wanyin Trading Company also took this opportunity to recruit many people.

Compared to when he first came here, Wanyin Trading Company was much better.

However, he had only been away for a month, and the Wanyin Trading Company had returned to its original withered appearance.

"It seems something happened while I was away."

Chen Ze muttered to himself, and then walked slowly towards the gate of Wanyin Trading Company.

At this moment, a white-haired old man walked out of Wanyin Trading Company, followed closely by Xia Yunqing, with a flattering smile on his face, as if he wanted to stay, but the white-haired old man had a cold look on his face, casually After bowing his hands, he couldn't wait to leave.

Xia Yunqing watched the old man leave with a sad look on his face.

Chen Ze deliberately stepped a little harder at this time.

Xia Yunqing thought that a guest was coming, and the sadness on her face disappeared instantly, replaced by a signature smile, and then she looked towards Chen Ze.

When she saw it was Chen Ze, she was slightly startled, and then the smile on her face disappeared instantly and turned into a look of grievance.

"Brother Chen, you are back. I wonder if this trip will go well?"

Xia Yunqing suppressed his aggrieved look and came out directly.

"This woman has really rich expressions."

After Chen Ze complained in his heart, he smiled lightly and said: "It's barely going smoothly."

"As long as it goes well..."

Xia Yunqing paused for a moment as he said this, as if he was hesitant to speak.

"Go in and talk if you have anything to say."

Chen Ze was very calm and walked directly into Wanyin Trading Company.

……

A moment later, in the reception room of Wanyin Trading Company, Chen Ze finished listening to Xia Yunqing's narrative.

In short, there was something wrong with a batch of spiritual weapons sold by Wanyin Trading Company some time ago. After this matter was widely publicized, Wanyin Trading Company lost many important customers. In addition, some sects that had cooperated with Wanyin Trading Company before also also He chose to terminate the cooperation and switched to Xiaoyao Trading Company.

For example, the old man who just left is the elder of Lingzhou's famous alchemy sect, Lingyao Pavilion.

In the past, most of the elixirs from the Spiritual Medicine Pavilion would be handed over to Wanyin Trading Company for consignment, but just now the elder of the Spiritual Medicine Pavilion came here to announce the termination of the cooperation.

As for some of the people recruited before... they also ran away when they saw that the situation was not good.

"Did the seller compensate the seller for the faulty spiritual weapon?"

Chen Ze asked.

Xia Yunqing nodded aggrievedly.

"Compensation...but it's of no use. This is a trap set up by Xiaoyao Trading Company specifically against our Wanyin Trading Company. That Zhong Shu has been ready to deal with our Wanyin Trading Company for a long time."

"Um... that's true."

Chen Ze nodded in agreement.

Things like problems with things are unavoidable in any business or shop. If something went wrong with a batch of spiritual weapons and there was such a big commotion, it was obvious that someone was behind it.

There are also sects such as Lingyao Pavilion. If nothing unexpected happens, Xiaoyao Trading Company has already sent people to negotiate with them, which is why they were so decisive just now.

"Brother Chen...the elders in the clan are very dissatisfied with my performance and are ready to recall me to the clan for punishment. As for the Wanyin Trading Company in Lingzhou, it may be temporarily closed. How about you go to Yuzhou, Yu The shopkeeper of the business in Yuzhou is my cousin, and she is quite kind. If you go to Yuzhou, you can enjoy the same treatment as here in Lingzhou."

Xia Yunqing said with red eyes.

To be honest, at this moment, in addition to being unwilling, she also felt guilty.

After all, the Human Emperor Palace is in a difficult moment now, and as a result, she was not only unable to help, but also hindered it.

Chen Ze glanced at her and said calmly: "When will you return to the family?"

"The family asked me to take care of the rest of the business and go back...I guess it will take a month at most."

Xia Yunqing replied.

"One month...should be enough."

Chen Ze whispered softly.

"What's enough? Does Brother Chen still have any needs? But now I can't say anything to the family..."

Xia Yunqing was a little confused.

Chen Ze waved his hand.

"No, the main reason is that I gained something during this trip and I want you to help me sell it."

"This……"

Xia Yunqing looked hesitant.In the past, she would have taken care of everything.

Even if she couldn't sell it, she could use the spiritual stones from Wanyin Trading Company to buy it first and then slowly sell it later, but now she didn't dare to boast about this kind of Haikou.

Seeing this, Chen Ze chuckled lightly and asked:

"Yun Qing, do you want to revive Wanyin Trading Company in Lingzhou?"

Xia Yunqing was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly and said: "Of course I want to...but..."

Before she could continue, Chen Ze took out two things from the storage ring and placed them on the table in front of him.

"Then use the last month to prepare an auction carefully. As long as the auction can be successfully held, I guess you can still be the shopkeeper of Wanyin Trading Company."

"auctions……"

Xia Yunqing was stunned for a while.

Is it necessary to organize an auction to sell this "some harvest" that Brother Chen said?
Although there was some hesitation in her heart, she still subconsciously looked at the two things in Chen Ze's hand.

At this glance, her eyes instantly lit up.

Placed on the table were a pill bottle and a palm-sized spiritual jade emitting dark green light.

She didn't know what was in the elixir bottle, but she recognized the black jade at a glance.

"Is this... the sea soul jade?"

After exclaiming, she carefully held the black jade in her hands.

Sea Soul Jade is an extremely precious top spiritual object. It contains a huge amount of spiritual energy. It can not only be used to refine spiritual treasure-level magic weapons, but can also be used to increase the concentration of spiritual energy in the cultivation place, which is beneficial to some cultivation environments. For relatively poor casual cultivators or some small sects, it can be called a priceless treasure, and it is very suitable to be used as the finale of the auction.

"It is indeed the Sea Heart Jade."

Chen Ze said lightly.

Xia Yunqing looked at the pill bottle on the table at this time.

If it can be taken out together with the Sea Heart Jade, it is natural that this elixir cannot be a mortal thing.

Thinking of this, she quickly took the elixir bottle, then carefully opened the bottle seal and smelled it.

However, she couldn't tell what kind of elixir it was after smelling it for a long time.

"This is the Spirit Ascension Pill."

Chen Ze introduced from the side.

"Spiritual Ascension Pill?"

Xia Yunqing looked confused.

She had never heard of this elixir.

"This is an elixir that can improve the level of a golden elixir cultivator. A low-grade elixir can [-]% be upgraded to one level. For a mid-grade elixir, there is a [-]-[-]% chance. This is a type of elixir that has been lost. You It’s normal not to know.”

Chen Ze said again.

"Pick up...the elixir that improves the level of the golden elixir."

Xia Yunqing murmured to himself.

As the shopkeeper of a trading company, she understood the value of this elixir in just a moment.

Not to mention others... her great-great-grandfather who died more than ten years ago was a fourth-grade golden elixir monk.

A year before her death, her extremely talented great-grandfather sighed several times and regretted that he had not tried hard to form a third-grade golden elixir when he was young...

If he knew there was such a pill, he would probably spend all his money to buy it, right?
"This...Brother Chen, is this true?"

Xia Yunqing asked in a daze.

If this is really a spiritual elixir that can improve the level of the golden elixir... then the value of this elixir is probably far greater than that of the Infant Transformation Pill.

The reason is very simple. Although the Infant Transformation Pill is precious, it can still be refined, but this Ascension Spirit Pill requires only one pill, which is one less in the world.

"Oh, you can just find a senior from the Human Emperor Palace to identify it."

Chen Ze smiled lightly.

Xia Yunqing recalled Chen Ze's appraisal skills and said with great excitement: "Brother Chen said it must be the case...Shengling Pill, if the news about this pill is released, our Wanyin Trading Company may have to raise the bar. Trampled by the Golden Core cultivator..."

Having said this, Xia Yunqing started pacing around the room with the Ascension Pill.

After a moment, she suddenly stood still.

"Brother Chen, you are right, we should indeed hold an auction! Let me go back to the clan, even if it is just to beg, I have to ask for some good things to organize an auction!"

Chen Ze shook his head when he heard this.

"No need to beg, I have enough stuff here to hold an auction. All you need to do is find a few family elders to sit in charge and promote the auction."
