I became a saint by cultivating demons in a strange world

Chapter 36 Inflation
In the city of two realms.

Led by He Yuan, the two came to the auction house.

The auction house is located in the center of the business district, and several palace-like auction houses show its scale.

After Li Xiao arrived, he expressed that he wanted to auction something, and there were specialized personnel to receive him.

He Yuan is waiting outside.

Li Xiao followed the receptionist into a private room.

The person in charge of reception was a middle-aged man who was in the late stage of Qi refining.

Apparently the auction house sent this man after seeing that he was a foundation-building monk.

Otherwise, receptionists who are in the early or middle stages of Qi refining are usually the ones who receive the guests.

Although it is not too unusual to have foundation-building monks after entering the City of Two Realms.

But you can still get the respect you deserve.

The middle-aged man introduced himself, "Senior, I am Wang Wanqiang, an appraiser from the auction house. What do you want to auction, senior?"

Li Xiao took out a jade bottle and said, "I want to auction a Foundation Establishment Pill..."

Wang Wanqiang's eyes lit up, "Oh, it's the Foundation Establishment Pill?"

The Foundation Establishment Pill is a hot commodity. Although it is not a big deal, it is definitely popular.

Wang Wanqiang took the jade bottle and began to identify it carefully.

"It is indeed a Foundation Establishment Pill. How much does the senior want to auction it for?"

The reserve price of an auction item is usually determined by a contract signed between the consignor and the auction house after prior discussion.

Li Xiao said directly, "I don't understand, please help me set the price..."

The auction house charges a commission of 15%. The higher the auction price, the more commission they will take.

Therefore, the auction house will definitely not deliberately set the price of the auction item low.

The auction house in Two Worlds City has higher commissions than ordinary auction houses, but they will not ask you about the origin of your items.

That's the beauty of the black market.

Wang Wanqiang said, "Due to raw materials and other reasons, the price of Foundation Establishment Pills has increased recently, and some families and sects are buying them, so we can set the base price at 1500 low-grade spiritual stones. The starting price is 100, and we should be able to get around 2500... "

Li Xiao was a little surprised.

In his impression, the Foundation Establishment Pill was not that expensive.

Little did he know that using the Foundation Establishment Pill to build a human foundation was the first choice for most monks.

Therefore, Foundation Establishment Pills have always been in short supply.

And because materials etc. are monopolized by certain family sects.

So prices fluctuate a lot.

For example, if some family sects go to war with others and suffer heavy losses, they will search for foundation-building pills everywhere to find ways to maintain their strength.

At this time, the Foundation Establishment Pill may be sold at a sky-high price.

Ordinary monks would definitely not know about this situation.

However, the Liangjiecheng Auction House has a deep background and is well-informed, so it can naturally grasp the market trends.

This is the difference between power and individuals.

Big forces can use this information to speculate and hoard various supplies in advance.

Individuals, on the other hand, can only wait foolishly for prices to rise.

Li Xiao and Wang Wanqiang chatted for a while and became sensitive to this problem.

He thought to himself, "Is the southwest going to be in chaos?"

Pill resources have skyrocketed. Isn't this a sign of unrest?

After the two negotiated, they signed the contract.

The Foundation Establishment Pill will naturally be placed in the auction house and will be auctioned in two days.

Moreover, the auction house guarantees that it will not disclose the consignor's information. After the auction is successful, you can just come quietly to collect the money.

Li Xiao could still trust the reputation of the Liangjie City Auction House.

Besides, this is not his true identity.

If there's anything wrong, just change your identity.

After completing the formalities, he left the auction house.

He Yuan was waiting outside the door and greeted Li Xiao when she saw him.

Li Xiao said, "I also want to sell some low-level elixirs and magic weapons. Where can I go?"

He Yuan said, "For elixirs, you can go to Qingye Pavilion. For magical weapons, do you want to sell righteous magical weapons or magical magical weapons?" Li Xiao said, "Magic magical weapons."

He Yuan said, "As for magic weapons, Wanlong Pavilion has the best reputation..."

Li Xiao didn't bother to care whether she would get a commission by taking him to these shops to buy and sell things.
I am not familiar with the place where I live, so it would be too laborious to find the store in person.

Anyway, these things are all stolen, the most important thing is to save worry.

What he fears most is trouble.

The two of them first arrived at Qingye Building, which was a pretty good elixir shop.

I heard that most of those who can open larger-scale stores in the city are Jindan families or sects.

The Two Worlds City is very large, and it is impossible for all businesses to be monopolized by the Xuanyue Sect and the Demon Alliance.

If we want to prosper, it is natural to open the market.

Of course, if you want to do business in the city, shop money, taxes, etc. are definitely indispensable.

According to He Yuan, Qingye Building was opened by a Jindan family named Ye from Wu State. It has a good reputation and fair prices.

After Li Xiao arrived, he sold all the dozens of bottles of elixirs he had obtained from Yehe Cave.

Only a few bottles of healing and rejuvenating elixirs were left.

And all those spiritual herbs were sold.

He had no intention of learning alchemy anyway, so there was no use keeping the spiritual herbs.

The clerk who greeted him looked a little strange.

The clerk originally saw a foundation-building monk and thought he had big business.
Unexpectedly, this strange magic cultivator in black robes only sells low-level elixirs and spiritual herbs.

The clerk secretly thought, was he going to rob the cave of some unlucky Qi-refining monk?
It can only be said that these clerks who are always looking after people are well-informed, and he has indeed guessed it.

But Two Realms City was originally a big black market.

Who cares if you snatched it or stole it, as long as you dare to sell it, they dare to take it.

After selling all the elixirs and spiritual herbs, Li Xiao unexpectedly got 900 spiritual stones.

He originally thought he could only sell four to five hundred spirit stones, but now the price has almost doubled.

He thought thoughtfully, "Sure enough, the prices of elixirs and spiritual herbs are much more expensive than I thought. Even the purchase price is so high, so you can imagine the selling price..."

The main reason for this was that two bottles of elixirs that could help monks in the middle stage of Qi refining break through to the later stage were sold at good prices.

These two bottles of Broken Mirror Pill alone were sold for 600 spirit stones.

Like the Foundation Establishment Pill, the price of this pill that can help people break through the realm is skyrocketing.

This further confirmed Li Xiao's idea that Youzhou might be in chaos.

"I don't care if he is in chaos or not, the worst case scenario is hiding in the depths of Wuliang Mountain. Anyway, I can go to the weird world. I'm not afraid of not having the resources to survive until I reach the Golden Elixir or even Nascent Soul and come out of the mountain again. By then, I think there are still people in this area of ​​Youzhou. What can you do to me..."

The idea is good, but for high-level monks to achieve breakthroughs, sometimes qualifications alone are not enough.

You also need to look for corresponding opportunities.

He was afraid that he would have to leave the mountain by then.

Of course, he won't be afraid then.

A firm Taoist heart can be regarded as one of Li Xiao's great strengths.

Again, for the sake of the road, it doesn’t matter if the sins are heinous.

Li Xiao came to Wanlong Pavilion again and sold the pink flying sword.

Wanlong Pavilion is an industry of the Demon Alliance, and its main business is various magical weapons and techniques of the Demonic Way.

This poisonous sword is a top-grade magic weapon and is in perfect condition.

So I sold 400 spirit stones, which was about the same as Li Xiao expected.

There were also two somewhat damaged medium-grade magic weapons taken from Qi Sanniang and Liu Ming and sold for 100 spirit stones.

So far, except for the Foundation Establishment Pill, most of the items he had collected have been cashed out.

Li Xiao did the math and found that the item was sold for 1400 spirit stones, plus the 700 spirit stones he grabbed directly, for a total of 2100 spirit stones.

"If the Foundation Establishment Pill can really get 2500 spirit stones, the income from this trip will be 4600 spirit stones. That bitch Ye Ying is really rich..." He sighed again.

In fact, Yehe Cave is in a special situation.

Because Ye Ying is a woman who is good at charm skills and good at dancing, even a foundation-building monk like Ximen Yu can have a leg.

And he also practiced alchemy skills.

That's why he saved such a rich family fortune.

Of course, now everything is cheaper for Li Xiao.
