Chapter 21 Teamwork
Both the first quota and the second quota were sold for 300 pieces of mid-grade spiritual stones.
Chu Tian believed that the prices for the remaining three places would never be lower than this number. In other words, Chu Tian had been able to ensure that he would not lose money.
Another VIP room.
After Su Shilun won the second place, he turned to his daughter Su Xishui and said with a smile: "Xishui, I bought this place for you. The treasure of the thief Yiming is very coveted. You must not let your father disappointment!"
"Father, don't worry, I will definitely seize the opportunity to gain the greatest benefits for our Su family!"
Su Xishui looked confident.
Her cultivation has reached the eighth level of the Body Refining Realm, and coupled with her talent that is beyond ordinary people, she has the power to fight even against ordinary ninth-level Body Refining Realm experts!
Su Shilun smiled and nodded. His daughter had never let him down, and this time would be no exception.
Not long after.
The third place will be auctioned, and the starting price of the auction is also one hundred yuan of medium-grade spiritual stones.
"One hundred and twenty dollars!"
"One hundred and thirty dollars!"
"One hundred and fifty dollars!"
The price rose rapidly and soon exceeded one hundred and fifty yuan.
At this moment, an astonishing offer came out: "Three hundred yuan of medium-grade spiritual stones!"
Many people looked surprised, and then they all smiled bitterly, "Grandma, what on earth is going on? Why are everyone acting like crazy and acting completely out of common sense!"
This time, the person who quoted 300 yuan of mid-grade spiritual stones in one go was none other than Qianyang Hou Chu Changqing.
To be honest, at this moment, he felt a hint of regret in his heart.
If it were the auction for the first two places, he could easily win if he bid 300 yuan for mid-grade spiritual stones, but now, it's hard to say.
Sure enough, after the scene was quiet for only two or three breaths, a new quote came out.
"Three hundred and ten dollars!"
Hearing this quotation, Chu Changqing sighed helplessly. He was still not determined enough and it was a little late to act.
"Three hundred and fifty dollars!"
Chu Changqing added forty yuan in one go.
Another voice immediately sounded: "Three hundred and sixty yuan!"
Chu Changqing hummed, gritted his teeth, and reported the price: "Four hundred yuan!"
This time, he finally completely suppressed his competitors, and he successfully won the third place.
However, compared to Chu Tian and Su Shilun, the price he spent to win the third spot was indeed a bit high.
Next, the fourth and fifth places began to be auctioned.
The fourth spot was won by Hou Xiaohou at a price of 450 yuan. The competition for the last spot was the most fierce and was won by a well-known casual cultivator who spent 500 yuan on mid-grade spiritual stones.
When all five places were auctioned, many people suddenly recalled the situation when the first place was auctioned.
As soon as the mysterious man came up, he directly increased the price by 200 yuan, and finally won it easily for 300 yuan. At that time, many people thought that the mysterious man was simply stupid and stupid.
Now it seems that he is not stupid at all, but is extremely smart!
After the five quotas were auctioned, Luoshui Pavilion immediately sent out five special talismans and collected the corresponding spiritual stones.
Shopkeeper Qin put his hands on his hands and smiled and said: "Congratulations to the five of you, each of you has obtained the extremely precious treasure hunting spot. Tonight, please bring your own letter talisman and gather at the location indicated by the letter talisman. Today's auction ends here!" "
After finishing speaking, Shopkeeper Qin turned around and walked off the silver platform.
Next, the thousands of people in the venue began to slowly disperse.
When they left, many people were still in high spirits, talking with their companions about some scenes that had happened at the auction that had just passed.
In the VIP room, just as Chu Tian was about to get up and leave, a young man in gray clothes came in from the outside and reminded Chu Tian to meet with Shopkeeper Qin in the secret room on the second floor of Luoshui Pavilion.
Chu Tian understood immediately.
Among the five people who successfully took the photo of the treasure hunting spot, he was the only one with an unknown identity. If he went out rashly now, there was no guarantee that he would not be targeted by someone who was interested.
What's more, he also wants to receive the spiritual stones obtained from the auction of the Explosive Flame Pearl.
Not long after, Chu Tian walked into the secret room on the second floor and found Shopkeeper Qin already waiting there.
"Haha, congratulations on the success of Luoshui Pavilion's auction, and another big profit!"
After Chu Tian sat down, he chuckled and raised his hands to Shopkeeper Qin opposite him.
Shopkeeper Qin also smiled proudly. This auction was indeed a success, and the final auction prices of many items exceeded pre-expectations.
After a breath, shopkeeper Qin took out a black bag and placed it in front of Chu Tian: "Sir's thirty Explosive Flame Beads yielded a total of 760 middle-grade spiritual stones. This is the portion that Mr. deserves! "
Chu Tian opened the heavy bag, glanced at it, and immediately judged that the number of medium-grade spiritual stones in the bag was about five hundred.
He nodded with satisfaction and put the black bag away.
This cooperation with Luoshui Pavilion is a perfect win-win!
Immediately, Chu Tian stared at Shopkeeper Qin and asked tentatively: "Shopkeeper Qin, I would like to ask, how many people will your organization send to participate in tonight's operation?"
"Fifteen people, and they are all at the most advanced level of body training!"
Shopkeeper Qin smiled coldly, but there was no confidentiality at all.
When Chu Tian heard this, he immediately twitched the corner of his mouth and took a slight breath.
In order to explore the treasure of the thief Yiming, Luoshui Pavilion actually sent fifteen masters of the highest level of body training in one go!
The five people who successfully obtained quotas at the auction were nothing compared to this.
The most important thing is that the fifteen people sent by Luoshui Pavilion can work together and cooperate, while the other five people are strangers to each other, work on their own, and even scheming.
Chu Tian sneered and said: "Haha, your pavilion is really good at calculating. You not only made a lot of money, but also won a good reputation. In the end, you even pocketed all the treasures of the thief Yiming!"
After hearing this, shopkeeper Qin was a little unhappy, but he could only laugh.
Not long after, Chu Tian left Luoshui Pavilion and came to the street. He found that no one was watching him, so he quickly found a place, changed his clothes, and then quietly returned to Qianyang Hou Mansion.
After returning to Qianyang Hou Mansion, Chu Tian did not go to the Waste Bureau, but returned to his room.
He is the supervisor of the Sewerage Bureau. If he doesn't go there once or twice, it doesn't matter. Anyway, all the work has been handed over to Bai Lao.
inside the room.
Chu Tian sat cross-legged beside the bed, holding the light white round jade talisman in his hand, and the spiritual energy in his body slowly poured into it.
Soon, a trace of lightning arc appeared on the surface of the round jade talisman, and then a piece of information suddenly entered Chu Tian's mind.
This piece of information only contains a few words, describing a specific geographical location, which is actually in the outer area of the Black Rock Forest.
"Sure enough, it's pretty much what I expected. Thief Yiming's treasure is hidden in the Black Rock Forest!"
Chu Tian secretly thought.
Immediately, Chu Tian put away the jade talisman and closed his eyes.
At the same time, in a room in the central area of Qianyanghou Mansion, Chu Changqing was having a pleasant conversation with another person.
"Haha, Brother Zhu, I haven't seen you for a few years, but your charm has not diminished at all. The person next to you should be your son Zhu Hao, right?"
Chu Changqing was dressed in casual clothes and smiled warmly at the person opposite.
Opposite Chu Changqing, there was a middle-aged man who looked like a strong-backed man, none other than Tiger Roaring Marquis Zhu Mingtian.
Next to him stood a young man in black clothes, about sixteen or seventeen years old, whose face was very similar to Zhu Mingtian.
Zhu Mingtian clasped his fists in return and said with a smile: "Haha, it's Quan Zi, Hao'er, why don't you meet your Uncle Chu soon!"
"I've met Uncle Chu!"
Zhu Hao hurriedly bowed to Chu Changqing.
At this moment, Chu Xi walked in from outside alone and was stunned when he saw the scene inside.
"Haha, Xi'er, you're here just in time. Come and meet Hou Xiaohou. You and Zhu Hao must cooperate well in exploring the treasure this time!"
Chu Changqing said.
Chu Xi's eyes suddenly lit up.
…
The same scene was playing out in the Su family's mansion a few miles away.
Su Shilun had a pleasant chat with the casual cultivator in the Lingyun realm who had obtained the quota for treasure hunting.
This casual cultivator brought his favorite disciple, named Gong Suncheng, who was born with a tall figure and a dignified appearance. He was always staring at Su Xishui next to Su Shilun, with a hidden lustful light in his eyes.
Not only did Su Xishui not feel the slightest resentment, but she would cast a flirtatious look towards the other side from time to time, almost drawing away Gong Suncheng's soul.
…
Chu Tian, who was still practicing hard with his eyes closed, had no idea that except for him, who was alone in this treasure hunt, the rest of the people were secretly holding together for warmth and working together.
The day passed quickly, and night gradually fell.
In the deep darkness of night, Chu Tian put on a black robe and a mask, quietly slipped out of the Qianyang Marquis Mansion, mounted a fast horse, and after leaving the city, he squeezed the horse's belly with his legs and galloped away in an instant.
At midnight, Chu Tian settled his horses and arrived at the location marked by the jade talisman.
This is a small flat land with a small bonfire on the ground. Because of the fear of attracting monsters, the bonfire does not burn vigorously.
The fifteen masters of Luoshui Pavilion are all in place. They are all dressed in black, with the special marks of Luoshui Pavilion on their collars and cuffs.
"Haha, sir, he came on time!"
After Chu Tian arrived, a familiar voice came out.
It was the shopkeeper Qin of Luoshui Pavilion.
Shopkeeper Qin, who was dressed in black robes, hugged Chu Tian.
Chu Tian also clasped his fists in return, but did not speak.
After everyone waited patiently for a while, four other people participating in the treasure hunt arrived one after another.
"Are you the mysterious figure who made crazy bids at the auction?" Gongsun Cheng looked at Chu Tian closely, a cruel smile gradually appeared on his face, "Very good, very good, I will take care of the evil spirit of that bottle of water essence on your body." Master has made a reservation!"
"idiot!"
Chu Tian cursed secretly.
It was really inexplicable that a guy who suddenly appeared out of nowhere, who was a stranger to me, threatened me as soon as they met.
"Okay, let's go!"
The next breath, Shopkeeper Qin waved his hand.
Everyone immediately jumped into the darkness.
