Chapter 119 auction (Part 2)

Liu shopkeeper immediately took over the second wooden box from the servant, and He took out a short sword from it: "This sword is called 'Surge', Water Attribute Flying Sword, Immeasurable Sword Sect Five-star praise Artifact Refinement Master Produced by Qu Jiajiang, forged from ice vortex cold crystal produced by the North Ocean. Only It needs to be filled with Spiritual Qi in advance, and the user can use the guidance of Divine Consciousness to cut out a Water Attribute light blade equivalent to Qi Refinement Great Perfection Level, which is a low-level cultivator. 40,000 Origin Spirit Stone Coins."

This Flying Sword, called Surge, sounds very similar to talisman. However, unlike the Spiritual Qi stored in the talisman, which will slowly lose over time, the Spiritual Qi stored in the ice vortex crystal interior can be stored for a long time, and it can also be given to others to repeatedly perfuse the Spiritual Qi inside.

Although Liu shopkeeper did not actually use this Flying Sword, no one doubted his description of the Surge Sword. After all, everyone is a person with a head and face, and Liu Qi will not make money by cheating.

After listening to Liu shopkeeper's introduction, the reactions of the cultivators on the field were polarized.

Qi Refinement Realm cultivator is generally eager to have a try, while Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator mostly shows a dismissive expression. After all, Qi Refinement Great Perfection full strength attack is a high-rank cultivator. It's like tickling.

Yang Lu also noticed that after Liu Qi introduced the special effects of the Surge Sword, he took a special look at himself. Apparently Liu shopkeeper also thought that this Flying Sword should be able to arouse his Qi Refinement Early- Stage cultivator interest.

Liu shopkeeper guessed right this time. After listening to the introduction of this surge sword, Yang Lu was really moved.

How strong is the full strength attack of Qi Refinement Great Perfection, just listen to Li Wen, the killer of Heyu Pavilion.

Although this surge sword only has the power of one blow, with such a blow, I am afraid that even the cultivator in the middle stage of Qi Refinement can be killed. Even if the cultivator in the later stage of Qi Refinement is used, it is equivalent to His output upper limit was instantly doubled. If it is said that this sword can improve who is the most, it is definitely Yang Lu.

For a cultivation rookie like Yang Lu who has just developed Divine Consciousness, as long as he has this sword, he can make a cameo appearance in "One Sword Superman".

It is more appropriate to use "Supreme Treasure of low-rank cultivator, tasteless of high-rank cultivator" to describe this surge sword.

Here Liu shopkeeper tone barely fell, and there is a masked cultivator who took the initiative to bid: "I will offer 41000Origin Spirit Stone Coin!"

But this person's voice, immediately drowned out by the bidding voices of other cultivators.

“I will issue 42000Origin Spirit Stone Coin.”

“I will issue 43000Origin Spirit Stone Coin.”

“43500Origin Spirit Stone Coin!”

……

This surge sword is really useful for some specific groups of people. In just one minute, twelve cultivators made more than twenty rounds of quotations, The price of Yongjian was raised by 60,000 Origin Spirit Stone Coins.

Yang Lu also tried to make a second bid, but was quickly overtaken by others.

However, the Surge Sword is a magic weapon that cannot be used by the Foundation Establishment Realm after all. When the quotation breaks through the 60,000 yuan mark, the number of cultivators participating in the quotation obviously decreases a lot. After all, the overwhelming majority Qi Refinement later stage cultivators, It is too extravagant to buy a Flying Sword exclusive to Qi Refinement Realm with such a huge sum of money.

When Su Yuanfeng, the president of the Seacliff Chamber of Commerce, directly offered the sky-high price of 70,000 yuan, there was no cultivator to continue bidding.

Seeing that the time was right, Yang Lu took the initiative to surrender to Su Yuanfeng: "President Su, I also like this surge sword, I am willing to give 71000 Origin Spirit Stone Coin, I wonder if you can give up your love. ?”

In normal auctions, most bidders are not allowed to mix privately, but this Liu Family Chamber of Commerce auction is not large in scale, and there are more elements of communication than transactions, so it is not the case. Strict rules.

Su Yuanfeng slightly startled, and then said with a smile: "I bought this surge sword for the consideration of the younger generation of the family, since Mister He likes it, then I am naturally not good at winning people's love. .”

All the cultivators present were a little surprised to hear that Su Yuanfeng gave up the auction so easily.

After all, the financial resources of the chairman of the Seacliff Chamber of Commerce, Su Yuanfeng, are definitely the strongest among all the cultivators here. Su Yuanfeng voluntarily backed down.

Yang Lu didn't notice the strange eyes of other cultivators, but took the surge sword from shopkeeper Liu as if nothing had happened, and kept it carefully in a special sword case.

The shape of the surge sword is too conspicuous. If you wear it at any time, it is very easy to reveal your identity. Therefore, Yang Lu only intends to use it as a means of trump card. It is best to let you know its formidable power. The enemy will not leave alive!

The sword box he used to keep the Surge Sword is also extraordinary, but purchased from the cultivation market yesterday for 200 Origin Spirit Stone Coin. The surface is engraved with a special formation mark, which is specially used to seal the Flying Sword The breath of magic weapon, shielding the prying eyes of other cultivators.

Liu shopkeeper nodded to him, and then took over the third wooden box from the servant...

In this way, the auction went on without any twists and turns, Liu shopkeeper took The items that came out were more precious and rare, and even in the second half of the auction, the starting price of all goods exceeded 100,000 Origin Spirit Stone Coins.

After Yang Lu won the Surge Sword, his entire net worth was less than 20,000 Spirit Stone Coins, and he could only be sighed in the face of high-priced auctions.

Only one item caught Yang Lu's interest.

"The general contract for the restoration project of the official road from Tianshucheng to Luanshicheng. The starting price is 150,000 Origin Spirit Stone Coins. The labor cost and the cost of building materials will be borne by yourself. According to the previous experience of dozens of official road restoration, it is estimated that After the completion of the project, the merit obtained is equivalent to a golden wheel of merit.”

Yang Lu was originally wondering why Tianshucheng asked someone to build the road, not only did not pay, but also asked the other party to post labor and materials. .

But after hearing the word "merit", he understood it all.

Similar to Spirit Stone, magic weapon, medicine ingredient, talisman and other cultivation resources, Heavenly Dao merit is also a cultivation resource, even in terms of importance, Heavenly Dao merit is the most important cultivation resource, there is no one.

Repairing bridges and roads has always been the most important livelihood project, and this kind of action will naturally be rewarded by Heavenly Dao.

Most of the official roads of the Tianshu mountain range are maintained by the Shanying faction, but the Shanying faction is the supreme ruler of the whole area after all, and it is impossible to do everything by yourself. After all, the internal management efficiency of any organization will change with the The expansion of the scale of management has declined exponentially. In the case that the management level cannot be further improved, the Shanying faction will inevitably outsource some non-core businesses.

Infrastructure projects such as road construction are obviously a non-core business that is very difficult to manage.

This is like the collection of property tax is definitely the most beneficial to the government, but the collection process of property tax is too cumbersome and the taxation cost is too high, so it often turns into a land finance that sells land directly.

This is not to say that land finance is better, it is just that the management cost of land finance is lower.

Let the Shanying faction personally handle the work of repairing bridges and roads, which is equivalent to letting the local government directly participate in real estate development projects, and the operating efficiency is definitely not comparable to that of market-oriented real estate companies.

Because of this mountain hawks will also outsource such "merit projects" that are extremely wasteful of management resources and have a low risk-return ratio, and let the Chamber of Commerce established by culture capitalists to help complete them.

Since the reward for road construction is paid through Heavenly Dao's merits, the Shanying faction does not worry about the cultivation capitalist sloppy-work.

For the Shanying faction, although the Heavenly Dao merit obtained by Sect is less, the successful divestiture of the most cumbersome non-core business can not only promote the economic development of the Tianshu mountain range, but also It also gave Sect additional income.

For the cultivation capitalists who contracted the project, this is equivalent to spending money to buy merit. The effect is similar to opening a homeless shelter, but whether it is worth it depends on the Chamber of Commerce. cost control and operating capabilities.

In general, this cooperation model is undoubtedly a win-win situation.

Unsurprisingly, this "official road restoration project" really attracted positive quotations from representatives of the Great Chamber of Commerce. In the end, Su Yuanfeng was strong and offered 470,000 Origin Spirit Stone Coins. Won this merit project for the Seacliff Chamber of Commerce.

After another half hour, the last lot was also sold.

This most valuable treasure is a set of portable formation flags called [Five-color Rainbow Array]. After being deployed by the Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator, it can even temporarily resist the attack of the Golden Core Realm cultivator. The hand of the Master of the Divine Heaven Sect in the Western Pole.

The starting price for this set of formation flags is as high as 2 million Spirit Stone Coins. After several rounds of quotations, it was finally bought by a masked cultivator at an astonishing price of 4.28 million yuan. middle.

More than 40 items were auctioned off in nearly two hours, and the auction's transaction efficiency is indeed not very high.

After the last auction item is traded, the cultivators who successfully bid on the auction begin to deliver the payment, while for the cultivators who failed the auction, a few chose to leave directly, and most of them began to talk about business with familiar cultivators. Come.
