When she was with Yun Yanli, she often went to the auction house to see if she could find something good. She often saw the Youth-Retaining Grass being auctioned, and the price was not considered expensive. About one grade-three spiritual crystal could be exchanged for a top-grade Youth-Retaining Grass.
Out of the five times she went to the auction house, four of them were auctioned. At that time, she was not interested in the Youth-Retaining Grass, so naturally, she was not interested in this kind of grass.
Yun Yanli wanted to buy it for her several times, but she refused. If she had known that this grass had such a function, she would have bought a few at that time.
Now, she could not even get one!
Why was this thing suddenly so scarce?
Gu Xijiu was a little puzzled. She asked the staff of an auction house. At first, the staff refused to tell her, saying that he had professional ethics and would not sell any trade secrets. However, later, Gu Xijiu generously gave him a spiritual crystal, and he told her everything. "In fact, this Youth-Retaining Grass is not a particularly rare herb. The reason why no one comes to auction it now is that the king of the Devil Kingdom wants to celebrate his favorite sister's birthday, and the designated gift is this Youth-Retaining Grass. Therefore, this grass is very expensive. Often, before it even arrives at the auction house, it will be snatched by others. "
"There is also a king in the Devil Kingdom? Who is their king? "Gu Xijiu was curious.
The staff shook his head. "Things in the Devil Kingdom are very mysterious. It is difficult for outsiders to know the situation inside. I once heard that the Devil Kingdom has been very chaotic in recent years. All the Devil Kings have their own ways and disputes. Recently, it has quieted down. It is said that there is a great Devil King who has conquered all the other Devil Kings and unified the Devil Kingdom …"
Gu Xijiu's heart skipped a beat. "What is the name of this great Devil King?"
The staff smiled bitterly and shook his head. "I don't know about this. I spent hundreds of gold coins to get this information. "
Gu Xijiu smiled and took out a grade-two spiritual crystal from her pocket. She shook it in front of the staff and said, "Young man, if you can buy a Youth-Retaining Grass for me, this spiritual crystal is yours."
The staff's eyes lit up!
A grade-two spiritual crystal was equivalent to 100 grade-three spiritual crystals, which could buy a hundred ordinary Youth-Retaining Grass!
After all, the staff was in this business, so he immediately agreed.
Gu Xijiu also gave him a grade-three spiritual crystal as a deposit. She would give him a grade-two spiritual crystal in exchange for the deposit.
Money could make the world go round. The shop assistant was really helpful. In the evening, he sent a message to Gu Xijiu, saying that he had found a source of Youth-Retaining Herb, but the price was very high. He needed two pieces of second-grade spiritual crystal and asked her if she wanted to buy it.
Of course, Gu Xijiu wanted to buy it. She asked the young man to buy it for her first.
When Gu Xijiu arrived, the shop assistant was already there waiting for her with a Youth-Retaining Herb.
Gu Xijiu gave the waiter three pieces of second-grade spiritual crystals. Two of them were for the price of the Youth-Retaining Herb and one was for the waiter. Then, he smiled and said, "In the future, I might look for you to buy some things. Naturally, I won't forget about the benefits. But I don't want anyone to know about me. Do you know what to do? "
The waiter was also quick-witted. He immediately said, "Don't worry, sir. I won't tell anyone about you!"
Gu Xijiu nodded and left with the Youth-Retaining Herb.
