After listening to Shen Yeming's speech in the reception room, Yi Tian realized that it wasn't that the treasures were hard to find, but it just happened to be the grand ceremony of the Union of Artificers.
Those foreign craftsmen swarmed in, disturbing the originally calm Luo Xia City market. Most of those people came for the ceremony. Although they were all powerful people, it didn't prevent them from suppressing the local craftsmen here.
Things like raising the price of treasures and cutting off the supply were trivial. What's more, it might even evolve into a fight. Maybe they would take the opportunity to smash the signboards of some century-old shops.
He was just unlucky to encounter this matter. If it was normal times, he might have solved it early. Now that he thought about it, Mi Jun gave him sixty thousand spirit stones as a deposit, he really didn't take advantage of him at all. If it continued like this, he really had to find a way to buy spiritual weapons to raise treasures.
Seeing Shen Yeming sitting calmly, the anger in his heart couldn't help but burst out. This old man probably knew this matter like the back of his hand, but he didn't tell him everything.
After thinking about it, the corner of his mouth twitched as he cupped his fist and said, "I don't know when the Union of Artificers will be held. When will these foreign craftsmen leave Luo Xia City?"
Shen Yeming saw Yi Tian like this and knew what he was thinking, so he sighed and said, "Brother Yi, you don't know. Usually, the grand ceremony of the Union of Artificers is not held at a fixed time and place. This time, Luo Xia City was chosen because of Lord Hong's many efforts. There are less than five years before the grand ceremony. During this period, those craftsmen who want to show off at the grand ceremony will definitely flock here. "
Yi Tian's eyelids couldn't help but twitch after listening. Shen Yeming's words were already tactfully telling him that the prices in Luo Xia City would definitely rise again.
Thinking that there was still some time before the grand ceremony, even if those foreign craftsmen had enough treasures, they wouldn't mind making trouble for their peers. Suppressing the other party was the same as raising one's own. As long as the price of the precious materials was raised, there would definitely be many people who could not gather enough materials in the end, and thus would not be able to refine outstanding spirit tools, let alone stand out in the ceremony.
However, this also affected the work at hand. Mi Jun only gave him five years to deliver the goods. In this way, time was really tight. After thinking about it, Yi Tian still fixed his gaze on Shen Yeming.
He was well aware of this, so he must have other ways. Now, it seemed that even if he had to exchange for a high price, or use a Spirit Tool to exchange for treasured materials, he would not hesitate.
He then took out a thousand spirit stones and placed them in his storage pouch before handing them over with a smile on his face. "Fellow Daoist Shen, please enlighten me. To be honest, if it weren't for the promise I made to Mi Jun and his wife, I wouldn't be in such a hurry to find treasures that can restrain the shadow attribute."
Shen Yeming smiled faintly, then pushed the storage pouch back and said, "I know Brother Yi has been standing on the side of the Taiqing Pavilion and Lord Hong for a long time. Mi Jun can also be considered as Hong Fei's trusted aide. I will naturally pay attention to his matters. Brother Yi, you don't have to be polite. "
Seeing that he didn't accept it, Yi Tian was stunned. Then, he realized that he had used Hong Fei's name to pressure him. Then, he smiled faintly and pushed the storage pouch back. "Fellow Daoist Shen is too polite. This is just a small token of my appreciation, nothing else. I think I will continue to trouble you with many things in the future. If you don't accept it, I won't dare to ask next time. "
Hearing this, Shen Yeming reached out and took the storage pouch, then put it away without checking it. After a while, he opened his mouth and said, "Right now, there is a shortage of materials in the market. Of course, the problem can't be solved by normal means."
"In that case, Fellow Daoist Shen, please show me the way." Yi Tian asked bluntly.
Shen Yeming nodded, then said, "There will be two high-level auctions in the auction house in the Luoxia City soon. Brother Yi can go and try your luck."
When Yi Tian heard this, a disappointed look appeared on his face. This auction was definitely not a good place to go. With so many foreign cultivators coming, there would definitely be no empty seats. The price of precious materials would also be inflated to the sky.
Then Shen Yeming said again, "In addition to the auction, there are also some exchange meetings held by some refiners in private. It is also a good place to go, but you need an acquaintance to lead the way. If you go there without permission, I'm afraid you can't even enter the door."
This was a good place. Although he might not be able to find the materials he wanted in the exchange meeting among a small group, it was also a way. It was better than competing with dozens of refiners of the same level in the auction. At least there was a big chance.
It was just that Shen Yeming mentioned that he needed an acquaintance to lead the way, which was a troublesome thing. He didn't know many people at the moment. Did he have to ask Hong Fei or Mi Jun for a referral? But these two people were not refiners, so they might not be qualified to participate in the auction.
Since he said it, he naturally knew some ways. After thinking about it, he could only put his idea on Shen Yeming.
Looking at his confident look, he was probably waiting for him to speak. It was just that this time he was going to lose money again. Yi Tian immediately showed a solemn face and said, "I have ascended to the spiritual world less than a hundred years. I don't have many friends in the Luoxia City. I will need Fellow Daoist Qing Shen's help in this matter. I am willing to use a human grade intermediate rank spiritual weapon as a reward to ask Fellow Daoist Shen's help. "
Shen Yeming hurriedly waved his hand and replied, "Brother Yi, why do you say this? We are all on the same side, so we should support each other. Don't mention this reward again, otherwise you will really look down on me. "
Yi Tian was stunned, but he was very anxious in his heart. Could it be that Shen Yeming was going to refuse?
After a while, Shen Yeming took out a jade pendant and handed it over, "You can use this to participate in the Thunderbolt Society's exchange meeting. The time and location information are all on the jade pendant. But after you go, you can't say my name, and you can't show your face. "
This was a bit interesting. Yi Tian looked at it suspiciously as if he was waiting for a reasonable explanation.
Shen Yeming coughed and said embarrassedly, "Actually, this is a group of foreign refiners that regularly hold an exchange meeting. I just happened to exchange a token with someone. As long as you are a local, you have to put on a proper disguise. Otherwise, if your true identity is exposed, you will be embarrassed when you meet in the future. "
So it was like this. Yi Tian didn't care. It was understandable if he put on a disguise. He was afraid that his true identity would be exposed. This way, everyone was happy. Everyone only needed to exchange materials and didn't need to care about their identity.
After putting away the jade pendant, Yi Tian once again expressed his thanks, "It is all thanks to Fellow Daoist Shen's guidance. Many thanks."
Shen Yeming hurriedly replied, "Brother Yi, there is no need for this. Everyone is just trying to make a living under Manager Hong. I see that Brother Yi is not a fish in a pond. When you soar in the future, don't forget about me. "
"I will never forget Fellow Daoist Shen's help." Yi Tian solemnly vowed, "I will repay Fellow Daoist's kindness with a drop of water."
