"But these elixirs of yours, Small Qi Gathering Pill, Small Circulation Pill, Meridian Unblocking Pill, and some Spirit Gathering Pills, have been auctioned countless times. Because they were all supplied by the hidden House of You, the starting price is the same every time, and the final transaction price is about the same. There won't be much fluctuation. So, if you feel that you are losing money, you can choose to give up."
The reason why the pawnbroker said so much was that he was afraid that the cost of Lin Yi's alchemy would be too high, and the final transaction price would be a loss.
"What is the general starting price and final transaction price?" Lin Yi asked.
"There is a record here. I'll find it for you to see." The pawnbroker skillfully took out a list from a pile of documents and handed it to Lin Yi.
Yang Qiqi, on the other hand, was quite surprised- Lin Yi had brought out so many pills to auction. He really was a man of goods! If it weren't for the fact that she really needed the blue crystal for Little Jiu's treatment, she would've asked for it all back.
Lin Yi didn't have the time to guess Yang Qiqi's thoughts. He took the list from the pawnbroker and looked at it carefully. However, he sucked in a cold breath when he saw it!
Seeing Lin Yi's subconscious shock, the pawnbroker smiled and said, "The hidden House of You produces elixirs in bulk. Their price naturally has an advantage. If you don't think it's worth it, don't sell it."
He was obviously doing it on purpose. The price on the list was too low in Lin Yi's eyes.
However, he misunderstood. Lin Yi looked at the price on the list and sighed secretly. The profit of this elixir business was really huge. No wonder the hidden House of You didn't care about the medical business in the secular world. It couldn't be compared with this!
Here, the transaction price of a elixir was more than ten million. It was a sky-high price. The twenty elixirs that Lin Yi brought were sold for more than two hundred million. Where else could he find such a profitable business?
Although the materials needed for these elixirs were precious, it was at most a few million. If Lin Yi had the time, he could ask Old Man Lin to plant some at home. It was just that he didn't have the time, so he asked for it from the You family.
After all, the ingredients for these elixirs were not particularly rare. The cost of first-grade and second-grade elixirs was actually not high. The only good thing about it was that it was often unsuccessful!
However, this price was still lower than the transaction value of the Pill of Life Extension and Toxin Cleansing. Could it be that the Pill of Life Extension and Toxin Cleansing was worth that much? Lin Yi was surprised that the Kang family would spare no effort to obtain the formula.
They had the backing of the hidden You family, and they were still concerned about the formula. It was enough to show how precious the formula was. However, Lin Yi did not find anything precious or strange about the formula.
"This price is fine. No problem." Lin Yi looked at the list. He said directly.
"Oh?" The pawnbroker was a little shocked, but he didn't ask much and just nodded. "Alright, since that's the case, let's do the registration."
"Alright." Lin Yi nodded.
It didn't take long for the procedures to be completed. Lin Yi didn't use his real name, only an auction number. This number would be used to participate in the auction as well, but he'd gotten it earlier than the others.
Yang Qiqi wasn't Yu Xiaoke- she had no chance to snatch the blue crystal from Lin Yi's bag in front of everyone. She couldn't find a suitable opportunity even after Lin Yi put on his bag. She could only give up for now.
The group walked out of the courtyard, and Lin Yi noticed that Xiaoke was nearby. She seemed to be looking at a stall not far from them. She seemed to be looking at a stall not far away, but Lin Yi could see her eyes drifting over from time to time. He couldn't help but smile bitterly to himself!
Yu Xiaoke's feelings were clear to Lin Yi. It was normal for her to be jealous after seeing him touching Yang Qiqi. However, Lin Yi didn't plan on letting Yang Qiqi go so easily. This girl was too irritating, biting the hand that fed her. Lin Yi punished her so that she would remember better in the future.
Yang Qiqi saw that she couldn't stop Lin Yi from touching her, so she used her hands to touch Lin Yi. Of course, the main reason she touched Lin Yi was to steal the blue crystal from Lin Yi's backpack. Only with the blue crystal could she trade for the earth element Sky class spirit beast blood.
Who was Yu Xiaoke? She knew Yang Qiqi's goal. She was a thief by birth, how could she not see that Yang Qiqi wanted to be a thief? Yu Xiaoke was a little annoyed- why was this male thief so perverted? Was he smitten by this hot girl in front of him? He didn't even know what she was trying to do?
In Yu Xiaoke's impression, this male thief was a very smart man. His intelligence and alertness in the tomb were both extraordinary. Plus, if he wanted to be perverted, he could've done it with herself- it wasn't like she wouldn't let him touch herself- why would he touch a girl who had bad intentions towards him?
It wasn't long before it was time for dinner. Lin Yi, Han Xiaopo, and Qiqi arrived at the hotel in the market. You had to pay for your food here, but the rooms were free, provided by the Practitioner Trade Association.
In fact, this place wasn't open to the public at all- other than when the practitioner's market was being held, it was always closed. The facilities here were all built for the sake of the market.
There weren't many practitioners eating in the restaurant, since this place was open all days- there was no need for everyone to eat at this time. Plus, most of the practitioners would just buy things and eat in their rooms, not sitting here.
Lin Yi randomly ordered a few dishes and sat down. "Did you find what you wanted to trade?"
"I … I … I don't have anything to trade, I'm just here to take a look." Qiqi quickly said.
"Haha." Lin Yi didn't say anything else. Qiqi's acting was too bad, and perhaps she was the only one who didn't know that she'd already exposed her true thoughts.
Yu Xiaoke was in the restaurant as well- she was panicking. Could this male thief in front of her be an impersonator? Otherwise, the male thief didn't look like this. Could it be that the mask was fake?
Seeing Qiqi fumbling around in Lin Yi's backpack, Yu Xiaoke panicked. What if this guy really was a male thief? And so, Xiaoke had no choice- she bought a boxed meal and sat beside Lin Yi's table.
The most common food here was the bento box. In fact, these bento boxes were mostly given to the staff of the Cultivator Market and the Law Enforcement Hall disciples for free. Very few cultivators would buy them! Practitioners weren't poor, so why would they buy a boxed meal? Someone like Yu Xiaoke who lived frugally was naturally different …
