Chapter 4024 Elixir Exhibition
These pavilions and waterside pavilions are not only beautiful and refreshing, but also combine various entertainment venues. However, after just half an hour of shopping, Lin Yi had already passed several erotic scenes. Casinos and casinos, which are popular among ordinary people, are also rare pastimes for powerful practitioners.
Lin Yi has naturally seen this kind of place, not to mention that he is not interested in these things at all. Even if he has such thoughts, he cannot rashly go to a place he is not familiar with. Local consumption is just waiting to be ripped off.
In addition to the entertainment venues on the Far North Island itself, Lin Yi also saw many merchants displaying treasures in various pavilions.
As Butler Song said, this is the Four Islands Auction Expo. The final auction is scheduled for three days, and these three days are the time left for each chamber of commerce to display their treasures.
Gathering popularity in advance and attracting as many potential buyers as possible in order to obtain as high a price as possible in the auction three days later is the purpose of exhibiting treasures.
The auction has not yet begun, and the smoke has already filled the air. However, for the Hong Chamber of Commerce, which knew nothing about it, these precious three days will inevitably be wasted, even if Hong Zhong can take remedial measures in time. Measures: If you want to transport goods from the Zhongdao headquarters, it will take at least two or three days, which is impossible to make in time.
Of course, these matters have nothing to do with Lin Yi for the time being. Even if he wants to help Hong Zhong, he is basically powerless. The only thing he can do now is to find his target lot.
The King of Tatters listed seven materials for him. Except for the mysterious water drop, which he had already purchased from the Hong Chamber of Commerce, the remaining six materials must be collected in this auction. .
If it were just a normal Beidao auction in the past, there might still be some omissions, but this time the momentum is so great that as long as you are willing to look for them, you have a good chance of collecting them all.
As expected, after Lin Yi walked around, he had already found four of the materials. This was based on the fact that the exhibition had just begun and many merchants had not yet taken out all the items. Not surprisingly, what follows? The remaining two materials should be found in two days.
After a night of silence, Lin Yi went to find Hong Zhong early the next morning and found that this always calm and calm elder had an unexpectedly ugly face. There was a trace of bloodshot eyes in his eyes. It seemed that he had been gone all night. Sleeping, and being constantly troubled.
"Shopkeeper Hong, the situation is not optimistic?" Lin Yi asked. He came with Hong Zhong. He was on the same boat. With his past friendship, it was his duty to help if he needed help.
"Good morning, Young Master Lin." Hong Zhong forced a smile on his face, and did not hide it from Lin Yi, and said frankly: "Yes, I just received a reply this morning. This time our Hong Chamber of Commerce , it can be regarded as someone working together to dig a hole. "Buried."
"How could it be?" Lin Yi couldn't help but was slightly surprised, and said in confusion: "The Hong Chamber of Commerce has a great business, and it won't be easy for others to join forces to target it, right?"
Hong Zhong shook his head and sighed: "That being said, we have now become the target of public criticism, and the other party has been planning for a long time. Not only did they block the auction information from us, but even our material reserves were consumed and purchased in advance, including Including the Zhongdao headquarters and the other three branches, the goods are worthy of auction level. There was a serious shortage at the same time, and it was bought in batches in the past few days. It was really unexpected."
Lin Yi was stunned when he heard this, even for a pure layman like him. , and everyone knows that business giants like the Hong Chamber of Commerce must attach great importance to cargo reserves.
Even if there is a shortage in a short period of time, there must be channels to quickly replenish it. If you want to have serious shortages including the Zhongdao headquarters and four branches, and you still have to be stuck at this critical time, You can imagine how difficult it is.
"In this way, it was really deliberate. However, the other party spent so much time and effort. The purpose is probably not just for the Four Islands Auction Expo. I'm afraid there will be more troublesome tricks in the future." Lin Yi Chuyan reminded.
"That's true. The other party is coming this time. The auction is just the beginning. If we show too much weakness and are taken advantage of, our Hong Chamber of Commerce may really face an unprecedented crisis. Yes." Hong Zhong said worriedly.
The opponent is a coalition of many forces, and many may just wait and see at the beginning. However, if the Hong Chamber of Commerce is too weak and they think it is profitable, and finally swarm in, then it is really not far away.
On the contrary, if the Hong Chamber of Commerce can survive the crisis at the Four Islands Auction Expo this time and show its profound foundation, then these wait-and-see forces will automatically retreat, and the murderous intention will be solved.
"Shopkeeper Hong, if we can prepare enough lots in a short time, can we deal with this crisis?" Lin Yi asked suddenly and thoughtfully.
Hong Zhong nodded and said: "Yes, but for an auction event of this level, the general-level goods are not of high quality at all. Even if they are shipped, they will just make people laugh. However, high-quality goods can be sold in a short time. There is nothing to add, it’s really frustrating.”
“Is a pill like the top-grade foundation-building barrier-breaking pill good enough?” Lin Yi asked again.
"Of course, foundation-building masters are the foundation and backbone of every force. For them, the best foundation-building barrier-breaking pill is a rare treasure that can only be found. It is even more sought after than some magical weapons. For any force, this can be regarded as a strategic-level elixir that has a price but no market!" Hong Zhong nodded in affirmation.
Hearing this, the corners of Lin Yi's mouth curved slightly: "If that's the case, then I should be able to help you a little. Since they are all organizing the Four Islands Auction Expo, it's a good thing that we are here. How about a top-quality elixir exhibition?”
“A top-quality elixir exhibition? Hong Zhong's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he quickly asked: "Could it be that Shaoxia Lin still has many top-grade pills on hand?"
"No." Lin Yi shook his head decisively and gave Shangguan Lan'er two top-grade fund-building pills. Thirteen top-grade foundation-building and barrier-breaking pills have all been sold to Hong Zhong, but he doesn't have a single pill left on hand.
"Then...where do we start talking about this top-quality elixir exhibition?" Hong Zhong couldn't help but feel disappointed.
Lin Yi smiled: "Shopkeeper Hong, you already know that I am an alchemist. Although I don't have it on hand at the moment, as long as I have enough elixir materials, I can naturally refine it." (End of Chapter)
