Chapter 144: Arguing
Exchanging elixirs for magical herbs and elixirs may seem like a lucrative business, but it is not.
Because refining the elixir is so difficult, it is considered good if an alchemist can succeed in one out of three furnaces. It is extremely lucky if he can succeed in two out of three furnaces. It is common for alchemists to fail in even one out of three furnaces.
Calculated this way, the profit is not that lucrative. Plus, refining elixirs takes a lot of time and energy. Many alchemists work hard for a month but still cannot produce a few batches of elixirs.
Therefore, most alchemists would not exchange the elixirs they had worked so hard to make for magical herbs and elixirs. It was the first time that someone like Zhang from Qingyang took out 600 elixirs at once to exchange for magical herbs and elixirs.
The earthly immortals were almost going crazy trying to grab the elixirs, and the six hundred elixirs were snatched away in less than half an hour.
At this time, there were still earthly immortals shouting there, and some of them were sighing and even drooping their feet and stamping their chests. For a moment, the entire Juxian Pavilion was in chaos.
Zhang Tianxing still raised his hand and smiled, "Okay, the elixirs have been exchanged, and the next is the immortal weapon. The employer is a master of refining, and only the refining materials are exchanged. Gold essence, silver essence, copper essence, and iron essence are all acceptable. Of course, natural treasures are better.
We'll still come in waves. The first wave is sixty immortal weapons, starting from one thousand kilograms of gold essence, one thousand five hundred kilograms of silver essence, one thousand eight hundred kilograms of copper essence, and two thousand kilograms of iron essence. If it can be doubled, it can be exchanged directly. If it is a rare treasure, it can also be exchanged directly. As for how many to exchange, it depends on the material and weight.
We have also arranged this exchange in advance. Gold, silver, copper, and iron must be 100 jin each. Otherwise, the tray will be crushed and the stairs will not be able to support it. Okay, let's start now."
Zhang from Qingyang was not bragging, he really had magical weapons, and he could use sixty of them at once!
"I'll pay double, four thousand jin of iron essence for one handful, give me two handfuls."
"I'll also pay double, two thousand kilograms of gold essence for one handful. Give me one handful."
"I'll also pay double. Three thousand jin of silver essence for one handful. Give me three handfuls."
Before this magical weapon was revealed, the entire Juxian Pavilion was in an uproar again.
Zhang Tianxing was not annoyed. He just smiled and nodded, then looked at Patriarch Hongyun.
Patriarch Hongyun calmly replaced all the wooden trays in the hands of Zhang's disciples with golden trays, then raised his hand and waved.
With a "whoosh", sixty swords immediately floated above the platform. These swords were not yet sheathed. Each of them was shining with cold light and exuded murderous aura. They were obviously rare immortal weapons.
At this moment, all the earthly immortals became even crazier, and the bidding sounds became more and more loud and noisy.
Suddenly, a loud shout came from the middle of the third floor: "Everyone, be quiet. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has something to say."
Well, this guy is famous for not being messed with.
The Juxian Pavilion really became quiet in an instant.
The Crown Prince Zhu Yijun glanced around coldly and said arrogantly, "Give me all the first sixty. I'll double them all. Is that okay with everyone?"
you!
Of course we have our opinions, and you are so arrogant.
This is a magical weapon, a treasure that can be passed down as a family heirloom, and you want it all as soon as you open your mouth!
All the earthly immortals dared to be angry but not to speak out.
This guy is lucky. The imperial court now has sixty more magic weapons. Its strength must have doubled instantly.
Chen Jiu didn't expect this guy to come, and he didn't expect that this guy had prepared so many refining materials.
But it doesn't matter. When the materials come to him, they will become magic weapons. Others are giving him hundreds or thousands of magic weapons for free. Only sixty of them are enough to bully the wealthy families, but they are not good enough in front of him.
Patriarch Hongyun secretly glanced at Chen Jiu, and seeing that he did not express any opinion, he immediately put all sixty immortal weapons into the tray of Zhang's disciple without hesitation.
Sixty Zhang family members immediately filed up to the third floor.
The Crown Prince Zhu Yijun picked up the immortal sword and examined it carefully, then put all the immortal weapons into the immortal palace.
The next step was to produce the materials. This time he was still quite disciplined. He just raised his hand and waved, and five gold brick-sized pieces of gold, silver, copper and iron essence appeared in the tray of each of the Zhang family members. These things were extremely heavy, and a small piece weighed one hundred kilograms.
He couldn't give too much at once. If he gave too much, the floor would collapse, and he would really incur public anger.
He went back and forth like this four times before he finally got all the materials.
Zhang Tianxing saw that Patriarch Hongyun had collected all the materials, so he raised his hand and smiled, "I won't waste any more words. The second wave will still be 60 pieces, and the old rules will apply. Those who pay double will be able to exchange directly. Okay, let's start now."
Patriarch Hongyun didn't waste any words . He just raised his hand and showed sixty swords.
This caused an uproar in Juxian Pavilion again.
Fortunately, there are still sixty left, grab them quickly!
The second wave of sixty pieces were quickly sold out, followed by the third, fourth, and fifth waves, all of which were sold at double the price. Some of the earth immortals were even shouting.
These guys are really rich. Not to mention the iron essence, the gold essence, silver essence and copper essence are all refined with real money. How much money is this?
Chen Jiu couldn't help but be secretly shocked when he saw this. It was likely that most of the money in the world had been pocketed by the royal court, wealthy families, and dukes and nobles.
Everyone was still reluctant to leave, but Zhang Tianxing raised his hand and said solemnly: "Okay, the exchange of immortal weapons has been completed. As I said before, there will be more in the future, so don't worry.
Next, it is time for the final treasure of this sale. An employer has consigned a piece of Feathered Green Gold. He only wants the Wood Elemental Elixir, two bottles at least, and the highest bidder wins."
Then, he turned around and looked at Ancestor Hongyun behind him.
Patriarch Hongyun raised his hand without hesitation, and a stone emitting green light immediately appeared on the table in front of Zhang Tianxing.
The stone was not big, and looked like an ordinary chopping board. However, the patterns on it were very unique, piece by piece, and really looked like feathers.
Zhang Tianxing directly picked up the Feathered Green Gold and showed it around, then smiled and said, "There's no need to introduce this in detail. Those who understand will understand, and those who don't understand will understand. There's no point in introducing it. I'll repeat it again. The employer only wants the Wood Element Immortal Pill, two bottles at least, and the highest bidder wins. Okay, let's start now."
Chen Jiu was determined to win. He raised his hand without hesitation and said, "I'll give you two bottles ."
It turns out that the Great Demon King of Jiuling Mountain came here for this purpose!
Upon hearing this, all the earthly immortals fell silent. They couldn't afford to offend the Great Demon King. Besides, everyone knew that this thing was used to refine divine weapons. Few people present could refine immortal weapons. With this thing, they could only make heirlooms and couldn't refine divine weapons at all. It was not worth it to offend the Great Demon King for this.
No one said anything, so it was Chen Jiu's. Zhang Tianxing smiled slightly and was about to raise his hand to announce it, but the Crown Prince Zhu Yijun suddenly raised his hand and said sinisterly: "Wait, I'll add one, two bottles and one."
You bastard, are you here to provoke me on purpose?
Chen Jiu glanced at this guy coldly, but he started to make plans in his mind.
He couldn't just raise the price randomly like a sucker and let Tianshui Zhao family get a bargain for nothing. The question was, how many bottles of wood-based elixirs did this guy prepare?
The royal court has employed many alchemists, and they can collect magical herbs and medicines from all over the world, so they must have a lot of magical pills.
If this guy guessed that he came for Yuhua Qingjin, he would definitely have prepared a lot of wood-type elixirs.
It seems like I have to test this guy's background first.
Chen Jiu frowned and thought for a while, then slowly said: "I'll add another one."
The Crown Prince Zhu Yijun said without hesitation: "I'll add another one too."
These two guys are at odds with each other, and it's going to be interesting to watch.
All the earthly immortals showed an expression of great interest, but they did not dare to stare at them and watch the show, because they could not afford to offend these two guys.
Chen Jiu frowned and thought for a while, then slowly said: "I'll add two more."
The Crown Prince Zhu Yijun joked, "I'll add two more too."
Humph, just one or two, you didn’t prepare much.
Chen Jiu said directly: "I'll give you three bottles!"
Upon hearing this, Crown Prince Zhu Yijun was stunned.
He indeed did not prepare many wood-type elixirs, because he had not expected that Chen Jiu came for Yuhua Qingjin. Chen Jiu's memorial stated that he came to the capital to buy some things, not to exchange things. He was misled!
You can't give in in this situation. So many people are watching here, and they are all well-known earthly immortals.
He was stunned for a moment, then snorted coldly: "I'll add another one."
Another one, you can’t take it anymore!
Chen Jiu raised his hand and put out four jade bottles, saying coldly: "I'll put out four bottles, Your Highness, I have to remind you that there are rules here, you can't just bid randomly. If you don't have that much, it won't work. Let's put it out and bid. Now, I've put it out, it's your turn."
I!
The Crown Prince Zhu Yijun was so angry that he was shouting nonsense in the beginning, because he only brought two bottles of wood-type elixirs. He was thinking that if no one offered a bid for the Yuhua Qingjin, he would take it back as a backup. If he could find someone who could refine a magic weapon, he would have a magic weapon.
Who would have thought that this guy Chen Jiu not only wanted to transform into Qingjin, but also prepared so many wood-type elixirs.
He looked at Patriarch Hongyun, then at the other earthly immortals, and could only snort coldly with gritted teeth and said nothing.
If he kept silent at this time, he would only lose face a little. However, if he bid a random price and could not produce so many elixirs, he would be extremely embarrassed.
There was no other way. Even if he didn't want to endure it anymore, he had to endure it.
Seeing this, Chen Jiu couldn't help but sneer, and then deliberately said: "No one raises the price anymore, right? If no one raises the price, the Yuhua Qingjin will be mine."
Seeing this, Zhang Tianxing quickly cooperated and said, "Let me ask again, is there anyone else bidding? If no one bids, the Yuhua Qingjin will belong to His Majesty the King of Nine Mountains."
This guy even deliberately added the title of Your Highness.
Upon hearing this, Crown Prince Zhu Yijun was so angry that he almost walked away on the spot.
