Chapter 352 - The Auction

Just like this, both parties socialized for the entire afternoon while entertaining different thoughts.

When night fell, Shopkeeper Fang wanted to invite Gu Zuo to a meal. Gu Zuo felt that he couldn’t but give some face, and went to eat with the other person. He got to experience the gourmet food of a first-rate restaurant in Shijue City.

After they finished eating, the time of the auction was fast approaching.

Shopkeeper Fang stood up: “Pharmacist Gu, this way, please.”

Gu Zuo also stood up in a calm and collected manner, and followed him out of the restaurant: “After you.”

Right outside the restaurant, a carriage was already properly prepared.

When all was said and done, Shopkeeper Fang had been doing business for a long time. His thoughts and intentions were meticulous and thorough. If he wanted to curry favor with someone, then that person would be received with a comforted and uplifted mood.

Although Gu Zuo knew that this was Shopkeeper Fang’s strategy, he indeed felt at ease. Hence, he allowed his mind to rest, and enjoyed this reception… In passing, he decided to learn from Shopkeeper Fang’s experience. Once he returned, he would bring it up to his family’s big brother. The service staff in their own organization would have to be trained like this.

Shopkeeper Fang had no clue about Gu Zuo’s thoughts. He only felt that his attending skills were pretty decent. Afterwards, the carriage arrived at the entrance of the auction house. With the greetings and token that Shopkeeper Fang displayed, they smoothly entered the passageway for honored guests. They didn’t have to crowd together with those martial artists and pharmacists waiting outside.

Following this, Gu Zuo was guided by Shopkeeper Fang through several hallways, and walked into a room without any problems.

In this room, there was a large, transparent screen ahead. However, because it was constructed with special materials, one could look out and see everything, but nothing inside could be seen from the outside.

Regardless of whether it was a martial artist’s eyesight or a pharmacist’s psychic power, neither could penetrate the barrier that protected this room. The appearances and information of the people in here wouldn’t be leaked.

— Once a disciple of a gold-ranked organization truly undertook a task, it would always be an airtight operation.

As for the ordinary people who knew about the auction’s backer, they wouldn’t make any provocations lightly.

Otherwise, what awaited them was the crushing retaliation of a pinnacle organization on this continent!

Gu Zuo sat on a low couch with soft cushions. Arranged in front of him was a distinctive, fragrant tea that the Wind God Auction House had prepared for its honored guests. This tea had also been refined by pharmacists. Strictly speaking, it should’ve been classified as a branch of medicinal cuisine.

With regards to a pharmacist’s psychic power, this sort of fragrant tea was quite advantageous. While it didn’t have any supplemental effects, it could allow a person to relax, thereby alleviating any pressure. A pharmacist’s psychic power would become even more tranquil and quick-witted.

Gu Zuo drank a mouthful, and felt great.

He also had this recipe. In the future, if he got too tired from refining pills, he could whip up some of this tea to enjoy.

On the side, Shopkeeper Fang poured him more tea.

It had to be said that this room had similarly been arranged with a beautiful young lady to serve them, but what kind of a discerning individual was Shopkeeper Fang? After he noticed that Gu Zuo didn’t give a second glance at that girl, he dismissed that person with a wave of his hand, and continued to serve Gu Zuo himself.

It didn’t take long for the large screen ahead to flicker with a streak of flowing light.

At once, Shopkeeper Fang smiled and said: “Pharmacist Gu, please take a look. The auction is already starting.”

Gu Zuo straightened his body somewhat, and took out a booklet that Shopkeeper Fang had given him. He browsed through it.

The drawings and descriptions in this booklet were luxuriant and detailed. Written on its pages were the first thirty items of this time’s auction. This kind of booklet could only be possessed by people who were capable of entering a private room like Gu Zuo. However, the last three items were considered part of the finale. Even Gu Zuo, who was auctioning an item, couldn’t see them.

They were kept confidential despite the numerous pieces of gossip being privately circulated… However, these so-called circulations and confidentialities were also methods of gaining attention.

At this moment, Shopkeeper Fang smiled at Gu Zuo and said: “Pharmacist Gu, thy prismatic Innate Mending Pill has already been sent into the auction’s item pool. Because this object is precious and a declaration has been made, the head manager has also agreed to not charge a commission fee.”

Gu Zuo nodded to him: “Thank you for the trouble, Shopkeeper Fang.”

Shopkeeper Fang had long discovered that, with the exhibition of his means and methods, this Pharmacist Gu’s attitude was becoming better and better. Granted that Gu Zuo still had a bit of a testy temperament, it was basically harmless — Gu Zuo was powerful. Compared to other pharmacist geniuses who were even more conceited and contemptuous, it was far easier to get along with him.

With these thoughts, Shopkeeper Fang’s smile carried some sincerity: “This place has many good things. If there’s something that Pharmacist Gu likes, feel free to bid for it. If you aren’t able to get it, this Fang can pay for it on behalf of Pharmacist Gu. Since this Fang hasn’t handed over the spirit crystals for the second prismatic Innate Mending Pill yet, there’s also no harm in diverting the funds in advance.”

Gu Zuo naturally had enough spirit crystals. However, what he previously displayed was a facade. Because he wanted to purchase large quantities of medicinal ingredients, he sold the Innate Mending Pills. As a result, it created the illusion that he was currently short of money, and that his expenses would be very large.

In this way, Shopkeeper Fang continued to ingratiate himself. Gu Zuo harrumphed, blowing out a cold puff of air from his nose. However, he didn’t make any refusals. He also didn’t make any surly facial expressions.

Shopkeeper Fang tactfully didn’t say anything more. It was because he knew that Gu Zuo had already listened to his words.

Soon after, the auctioneer’s voice echoed out: “The Wind God Auction House respectfully welcomes these honored guests!”

Gu Zuo’s expression became slightly focused. His attention immediately fell onto that transparent screen.

Shopkeeper Fang looked over, too.

The first auctioned item was already displayed. It was a spirit weapon with thirty percent spirituality. According to reason, this kind of spirit weapon wouldn’t have been too rare. It could’ve been purchased from many storefronts, and it was unlikely for it to have been taken out especially for an auction. However, this spirit weapon was extremely delicate and beautiful. Its exterior appearance was just like a woman’s head ornament. It seemed enchanting.

If it was a man, he naturally wouldn’t be concerned. But if it was a woman, her interest would inevitably be piqued.

Consequently, people quickly started bidding.

The price of this golden-level spirit weapon rose from dozens to hundreds of spirit crystals. This item’s base price was fifty spirit crystals. In the wake of voices continuously calling out bids, the price rose to two hundred-something in a short period of time.

Ultimately, it was a young man who purchased it for three hundred twenty-five spirit crystals. Shortly thereafter, he turned around, and gave it as a present to the lovely lady sitting next to him. There was a glimpse of a smile on that young lady’s face. The young man put on that head ornament for her, and it immediately contrasted against the girl’s snow-white skin, making her good looks shine even brighter.

At this moment, the atmosphere became even more ardent and warm, causing the entire auction venue to boil with passion!

It could be said that the selling of the first auctioned item had been quite successful.

At once, the numerous guests participating in the auction increased their expectations of the second item.

And the second item didn’t also didn’t disappoint anyone. It was a mighty piece of armor suitable for a man. If it was worn on the body, one’s defenses would be greatly increased. Likewise, it was a golden-level spirit armor!

Because it amplified one’s defense, the base price was sixty spirit crystals, which was even higher than that of the beautiful and feminine spirit weapon just now.

Under the auctioneer’s fervent recommendations and constant stimulations, this piece of armor was sold for four hundred spirit crystals!

Soon after, it was the third item, fourth item, fifth item…

Gu Zuo sensed the surging craze in the auction house, and also felt like he was somewhat drawn in.

However, there were very few things that truly deserved his bids.

Up until the bidding ended for the first thirty auctioned items, the number of times that Gu Zuo acted didn’t exceed three. However, every time he took action, he would successfully bid for that item.

These three things were all medicinal ingredients. That Shopkeeper Fang was considered to be rather insightful. This Pharmacist Gu was obsessed with good ingredients. At the same time, he made some calculations in his heart: “Pharmacist Gu seems rather interested in rare and precious medicinal ingredients?”

Gu Zuo lifted his chin: “Are there any pharmacists who don’t love medicinal ingredients?”

This was an admission.

Shopkeeper Fang hurried to curry favor: “In the future, if Pharmacist Gu wants any medicinal ingredients, perhaps this Fang can make use of his limited power. Our Medicine Heart Pavilion purchases medicinal pills as well as ingredients. Even if this Fang can’t find it, I can also commission the Wind God Trading Company to scour the lands and seas. In the end, they’ll surely be able to find some news.”

Gu Zuo heard these words, and couldn’t help being emotionally affected: “If it’s like this, then I’ll have to trouble Shopkeeper Fang.”

Shopkeeper Fang smiled right away, and said: “It’s no bother. Taking care of these matters for Pharmacist Gu is also this Fang’s wish.”

Gu Zuo nodded his head, and accepted the other party’s kind intentions.

Shopkeeper Fang was even more satisfied.

This was considered as a tightening of friendly relations, right?

It was also at this point in time that the final auctioned items were going to be taken out.
