Chapter 361: The Auction Begins, Chen Changsheng: I Was Just Joking
Looking at Qian Ya’s serious expression, Chen Changsheng said calmly.
“The God of Wealth lineage originates from the Heavenly Court era.”
“During the battle of the gods, thirty-six bloodlines of the Qian family made it onto the divine ranking.”
“Therefore, the Qian family does not have a true bloodline of the God of Wealth passed down; you are merely side branches of the Qian family.”
“The reason you dare to claim to be the God of Wealth is twofold: one is that your ancestor was conferred the title of God of Wealth.”
“The second is that your ancestor possessed a treasure capable of changing the heavens and the earth, known as the Treasure Gathering Basin.”
“However, since your ancestor’s divine status dissipated, this Treasure Gathering Basin has gone missing.”
“I must be correct, right, Miss Ya?”
Facing Chen Changsheng’s words, Qian Ya smiled faintly and said, “Chen Shaozi is quite familiar with the history of our God of Wealth lineage.”
“However, these details can be easily investigated; why should I believe you?”
“That makes sense,” Chen Changsheng nodded and said, “What I just said was just to tease you.”
“I really don’t know the whereabouts of the Treasure Gathering Basin, so let’s set the price for this Dan at ten thousand Divine Sources each.”
“I’ll give you ten pieces; five to sell to you, and the other five will be put up for auction. Is there any problem with that?”
As soon as these words were spoken, the corners of Qian Ya’s mouth immediately twitched.
She never expected Chen Changsheng to come up with such a move.
As the saying goes, a high asking price, and then haggling down; the value of such a Dan is definitely worth more than ten thousand Divine Sources each.
With the right operations, it wouldn’t be impossible to sell them for a hundred thousand Divine Sources each.
But now that Chen Changsheng was actively lowering the price, it left Qian Ya somewhat baffled.
Could it be that he really knows the whereabouts of the Treasure Gathering Basin?
Thinking of this, Qian Ya said cheerfully, “Shaozi, are you joking? Buying such a Dan for ten thousand Divine Sources will get me cursed just the same.”
“How about this: I’ll offer twenty thousand Divine Sources for the purchase. How does that sound?”
“No deal!”
Chen Changsheng decisively rejected Qian Ya’s proposal.
“This Dan will only be sold to you for ten thousand Divine Sources each; not a cent more.”
“Hahaha!”
“Shaozi is joking again. Who has a seller actively lowering prices? You must know something, right?”
“Sorry, I don’t know anything. The information about the Treasure Gathering Basin is me trying to trick you.”
“I initially wanted to use this information to drive up the price, but now I’ve realized my conscience; is there any problem with that?”
Qian Ya: “……”
No, the way you’re doing this is getting a bit hard to read.
What kind of business is this?
After severely complaining about Chen Changsheng in her heart, Qian Ya ultimately still purchased the Dan from Chen Changsheng at the price of ten thousand Divine Sources each.
After receiving the Dan, Miss Ya threw one into her mouth.
“Buzz!”
A wave of cultivation fluctuations immediately emanated from Qian Ya.
From the looks of it, Qian Ya had used this Dan to advance a part of her cultivation.
But this action stunned Chen Changsheng, who was watching.
Seeing this, Qian Ya smiled and said, “Why are you staring at me like that, Shaozi? Don’t tell me there’s something wrong with this Dan?”
“This Dan is definitely fine, but that Dan master from Wanbao Pavilion can be dismissed now.”
“Hahaha!”
“Shaozi is again saying some nonsensical things; Ya’er will not fall for your tricks.”
“For these five Dans, I’ll auction them at the auction for a fair price.”
“When the time comes, don’t forget Ya’er when you’ve got something good.”
By the way, Shaozi, what is this Dan called?”
Without thinking, Chen Changsheng replied, “This Dan is named Reincarnation Wine.”
“Reincarnation Wine?”
“What a strange name; Ya’er will remember it.”
After saying that, Miss Ya left the VIP room.
At this moment, Su Wan’er, who had been silent on the side, finally spoke up.
“Shaozi, why did you decide to lower the price actively?”
Hearing this, Chen Changsheng leaned back on the soft couch and slowly said, “In business, sometimes earning a little can equate to losing.”
“Right now, in the Spirit Domain, there are very few Dan that can affect cultivators in the Divine Realm.”
“The emergence of the Reincarnation Wine will certainly attract the competition of Divine Realm cultivators.”
“There are four Divine Realm powerhouses in Wanbao City, the strongest being the city lord of Wanbao.”
“Next is your ancestor from the Su family, followed by the head of the Wang family, and finally this Miss Ya.”
“The Su family, the Wang family, and Wanbao Pavilion, all three forces have very deep foundations.”
“As the auction house, Wanbao Pavilion will naturally not participate in competitive bidding, so the only remaining target customers are the Wang family and your Su family.”
“The Wang family has two Divine Realm powerhouses, with their ancestor being the city lord of Wanbao.”
“While your ancestor from the Su family is the seventh strongest in Wanbao City, whoever obtains the Reincarnation Wine will hold the advantage.”
“In such a situation, how much do you think the Su family and the Wang family will spend to buy it?”
Upon hearing this, Su Wan’er said, “What you’re saying is that we set the price lower at first, let them taste a bit of sweetness, and then we can raise the price later?”
“Exactly.”
“The struggle between the Su family and the Wang family will become the biggest advertisement for the ‘Reincarnation Wine.'”
“The Spirit Domain is not just Wanbao City; there are many other powerful cities.”
“Aside from the Spirit Domain, there are eight other domains; we need to broaden our vision.”
“If we set the price too high now, won’t we scare off those customers?”
After speaking, Su Wan’er nodded thoughtfully.
Meanwhile, Chen Changsheng turned to look down at the auction.
Bai Ze, who was lying next to him, took a glance at the seemingly deep Chen Changsheng, curled his lip, and then continued to sleep.
Based on what he knew about Chen Changsheng, this matter was definitely not as simple as Chen Changsheng described.
That previous line of reasoning was merely intended to deceive someone like Su Wan’er.
The real aim, how could Chen Changsheng easily reveal it?
…
Auction.
With a graceful gait, Qian Ya walked onto the auction stage.
Looking at the crowd below, Qian Ya smiled slightly and said, “Thank you all for attending the Wanbao Pavilion auction.”
“In preparation for this auction, our Wanbao Pavilion has spent three years.”
“I guarantee that every item here is a rare treasure.”
“Now, let me introduce the first item of this grand event.”
As her words fell, a woman came over holding a red tray.
“Swish!”
The red cloth was lifted, revealing a piece of silver metal lying quietly on the tray.
“Half-Moon Silver, a top-grade refining material.”
“Its hardness far exceeds that of ordinary refining materials. Added to magic treasures, it can not only enhance their hardness but also improve their fluidity. If a magic treasure is crafted from Half-Moon Silver, it can even harness a bit of lunar power.”
“This kind of weapon, even as a life magic treasure, would not be excessive.”
“The starting bid for this item is eight thousand Divine Sources, and each subsequent bid must not be less than one hundred Divine Sources.”
