Mr. Qin, who was slapped, was still furious even though he had the five hundred Yuan stones that Jia Fu had just handed over. However, he did not dare to attack again because of Jia Fu's strength and face.

After looking around and not seeing Tie Yunqing who attacked him, he could only stare at Tie Yimu, wanting to kill him with the corner of his eyes.

The hunchbacked old man next to Mr. Qin breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat off his face.

He was not a young man who knew nothing. He knew that in a family formed by blood ties, once facing outsiders, all the clansmen knew to be united.

If he really wanted to fight just now, he would have to die with the young master in this Tiejia village.

Although the Tie family is known as a righteous family, he knows that there is no such thing as a righteous family. It is just an image and a big banner. When it comes to interests, only strength is everything.

At this moment, the shop owner held a dozen blank papers of the same size and shape in his hands and ran to Jia Fu with both hands.

"It was all a misunderstanding just now. We were upset because of a little bookworm. So, for the sake of fairness and justice in the transaction, we should still follow the convention." Jia Fu said as he walked behind the central counter.

Putting a dozen white papers cut into long strips on the table, Jia Fu looked around with a smile and explained:

"Friends who are interested in buying bookworms, please take the paper in front of me, write down your respective bids for this bookworm, and put them in the pottery jar in front of me. Finally, I will personally check and confirm that the highest bidder will get the bookworm."

"Of course, if you are not financially well-off or are deliberately making trouble, don't take the paper and put in the bid."

At this moment, Tie Yunqing, who was hiding in the shadows outside the crowd, smiled silently.

His goal has been achieved. Tie Yunqing, who had only 2,200 Yuanshi in his hand at the beginning, saw Tie Yimu and Mr. Qin getting excited, and judged that if the two continued to bid, the final transaction price of this bookworm would definitely exceed the upper limit of Yuanshi in his hand.

In order to be able to buy this bookworm in the end, Tie Yunqing's idea is very simple.

Since the current problem cannot be solved, then make things bigger and escalate the conflict. The price conflict between the two people was successfully turned into a conflict between the Tie family members and the outsiders through a slap.

In short, it is to overturn the table, reshuffle the cards, and let everyone return to the same starting line in a different way.

The person Tie Yunqing chose to shuffle the cards is Jia Fu, the leader of the Jia family caravan and the fourth-level Gu Master.

As a shrewd businessman, Jia Fu knows that harmony makes money. In order not to offend anyone and give a good reputation and impression to the Tie family members present, he can only choose the most fair bidding method.

At the same time, he also made a strong psychological suggestion. When he said that sentence, "2,000 Yuanshi to buy a bookworm, only a fool would buy it!"

This suggestion was imprinted in everyone's mind. No one wanted to be a fool, because although bookworms are rare, they have a market price after all.

This sentence calmed everyone down from their passion.

At this moment, as soon as the voice fell, Qin Gongzi, who was closest to Jia Fu, was the first to take a blank paper from the counter in front of Jia Fu.

The rest of the people who were interested in competing for the bookworm also came forward to receive the blank paper.

Tie Yunqing was still standing silently in the shadow outside the crowd, not in a hurry at all.

Not long after, an ordinary-looking second-level Gu Master squeezed through the crowd and handed the blank paper he had just received to Tie Yunqing.

Tie Yunqing took out five Yuanshi and stuffed them into the other party's hand, and said calmly: "Wait, you can help me throw it into the jar."

Not long after, the note with the quotation and Tie Yunqing's own signature was carefully folded by him. Then he watched with his own eyes as the ordinary-looking second-level Gu Master was thrown into the pottery jar in front of Jia Fu.

......

After three quarters of an hour, Jia Fu had left the tent, and most of the Gu Masters of the Tie family had also left, leaving only two groups of people, and the shop owner, staring at each other.

"It turned out that I didn't buy the bookworm. This is impossible. I counted the 500 Yuanshi that Lord Jia Fu just gave me." Young Master Qin, who was wearing a blue robe, looked unbelievable, and the hunchbacked old man beside him sighed.

Opposite Young Master Qin and the old man, Tie Yimu and Tie Biao also looked at each other with a look of seeing a ghost.

"Brother Mu, did you fill in 2,000 Yuanshi?" Tie Biao asked the question in his mind with a puzzled look on his face.

"Only a fool would pay 2,000 Yuanshi for a bookworm!" Tie Yimu rolled his eyes and said helplessly, "I paid 1,650 Yuanshi. Damn it, who else can afford such a high price except me and the blue-robed fool opposite!"

At this moment, the owner of the tent shop bowed to both Mr. Qin and Tie Yimu and said politely:

"Do you two still want to buy Gu worms? It's late tonight, why don't you come to our shop tomorrow?"

Tie Yimu and Mr. Qin glared at each other, and then led their people out of the tent gate.

After confirming that there was no more customers in the tent, the shop owner turned and walked towards the inconspicuous small door hidden behind the counter.

The owner pulled open the small door curtain and looked out. A young Gu Master was standing in the moonlight, waiting quietly.

"Dear guest, please come in. As you wrote on the note, I will pick you up at the back door and hand over the Gu worms after everyone has left." The shop owner gestured to invite Tie Yunqing to enter the tent again.

He bent down and stepped back into the tent. It was empty now, except for the owner standing alone behind the counter.

Tie Yunqing looked calm and indifferent as he looked at the shop owner. He could not tell that he was the man who had hit someone so passionately not long ago.

The shop owner immediately understood and took out a spindle-like, round and cute bookworm from his own orifice. It was pure white. The surface seemed to be coated with a layer of enamel, with a glossy luster.

Seeing the bookworm he had been thinking about, Tie Yunqing smiled immediately.

Quack!

A frog croak echoed in the tent.

Under Tie Yunqing's control, the big-bellied frog Gu moved his mind, and a bag filled with Yuanshi gradually grew from small to large after flying out of the frog's mouth, and finally returned to its normal size.

Tie Yunqing took out some Yuanshi from it, and then handed the remaining Yuanshi and the bag to the shop owner.

A full 2001 Yuanshi.

Tie Yunqing suddenly felt funny. None of those Gu Masters filled in the price of competing for the bookworm, which was more than 2000 Yuanshi.

Even if you have Yuanshi, you may not be able to buy a bookworm, because the scarcity of bookworms makes it rarely circulated in the market. And the mere 2,000 Yuanshi are just some pocket money for Tie Yunqing now.

Compared with Yuanshi, bookworms are obviously much more valuable.

Now, you don’t have to worry about forgetting the memories of the inheritance, the secret realm of heaven and earth, and the opportunities in your mind in the original book, or hiding them by fate.

And the Tong family’s sword-fighting Gu worm inheritance can also be recorded in the bookworm, and you don’t have to worry about losing it.

Even now, you can openly write a diary to record your life in the Gu Xiu world.

I have come here through time and space, so I have to have some records to witness the stories along the way.
