Man-Slaying Style
Not to mention the younger generation like Xiao Ning, even Xiao Zhan is completely confused. Spreading rumors himself, and then clarifying them himself?
Everyone looked at each other, not understanding what the Young Clan Leader was up to.
"Yan 'er, you only want me to go to Mittel Auction House to clarify that this is a rumor, and let them boldly cooperate with the two major families, providing those low-level medicinal herbs. Are you worried that Mittel's Ya Fei will have concerns?" Xiao Zhan looked at Xiao Yan, who was eating breakfast, and voiced his doubts.
"One of the reasons. Dad, don't worry, I will go with you to the auction in a few days, and I happen to have something I want to buy." Xiao Yan smiled slightly. That confident smile had never disappeared since he became sensible.
...
In front of the specialized pill sales store in Ao Jia Market, there was already a sea of people. The shouts, curses, and fighting sounds of the mercenaries gathered together, deafening and spreading throughout the entire Town Market.
Behind the pill sales window, the Galio Clan members selling the medicine were watching the mercenaries outside, who were fighting fiercely for the healing medicine, withteasing expressions on their faces. The smiles on their faces had a hint of smugness, relying on the power of the medicine.
Galio Bi, who was in charge of selling the pills, narrowed his small eyes into a slit and said smugly in a low voice: "Heh, when the price increases, they clamor that they won't buy if the price increases again, but they still buy it obediently."
"How cheap."
Once people have enjoyed something, it is difficult to go back to the old days. The sense of security brought by buying a portion of wound medicine is what all mercenaries need most.
The mercenaries of Wutan City have to go to the suburban forests almost every day to hunt Magical Beast to obtain Magic Core to make money. The life-and-death struggle with Magical Beast can be fatal at any time. A box of Spring Return Powder can quickly stop bleeding, even if the main artery is cut, they will not die from excessive blood loss.
At this moment, some different discussions suddenly appeared in the crowd.
"Have you heard? The Xiao Clan posted notices in various Town Markets and industries this morning, saying that they will also have pills for sale in a few days, and the price will be cheaper and the effect will be better."
"Fake, right?"
"That's not necessarily true. I heard from a rumor that the Xiao Clan somehow obtained the pill formulas for Spring Return Powder and Little Dou Qi Pill, and used the pill formulas to make a deal with an Alchemist from the Nalan Family."
"I knew it, the pharmacists have been constantly raising the prices of medicinal herbs recently, it really was them bidding against each other, so it turns out that the Xiao Clan obtained the pill formulas."
"But I heard that the Oba Clan and the Galio Clan have joined forces to buy out the pharmacists' medicinal herbs. Where will the Xiao Clan get the medicinal herbs from?"
"Don't forget the Mittel Auction House, the quarterly auction of the Mittel Auction House is in three days."
As the discussions among the neighbors became more and more intense, all the mercenaries and merchants understood one thing in their minds: The Xiao Clan is going to fight back! The auction three days later will be the beginning of a bloody storm!
...
Three days passed in the blink of an eye. In the afternoon, at the gate of the Xiao Clan, not only Xiao Zhan was there, but also several elders were there. Some outstanding young members of the Xiao Clan attended in full dress, looking extremely lively.
Even Xiao Yan was dressed very decently this time, giving the impression that the entire Xiao Clan was going to do something big.
"Xun Er, aren't you going together today?" Xiao Yan stroked Xun Er's hair and asked softly.
Xun Er shook her head with a depressed expression and said, "No, Xiao Yan-gege, Xun Er has something to go out for today."
Xiao Yan leaned close to Xun Er's ear and asked softly, "Is Xun Er going on a date?"
Xun Er rolled her eyes at Xiao Yan and denied, "Only Xiao Yan-gege is allowed to cultivate in seclusion, and Xun Er is not allowed to cultivate in seclusion? Xun Er is going to cultivate a Dou Technique these few days, and it will take some time."
Xiao Yan smiled and didn't ask any more questions. Everyone has their own secrets, so there's no need to get to the bottom of it.
...
Today's Mittel Auction House is undoubtedly the most popular one. It's not that the auction items are special, but the rumors that have been circulating these days have attracted attention from all parties.
When the Xiao Clan and his party arrived, the security personnel of the auction house separated a path, allowing everyone from the Xiao Clan to go to the auction house.
"Sister, in less than half a year, it seems that it will be time for Canaan Academy's enrollment this year, right?" Xiao Ning asked Xiao Yu with a slightly eager tone.
Hearing Xiao Ning's question, Xiao Yu nodded slightly and said with a proud tone: "Don't worry, you already have the qualifications for admission, and the person in charge of enrollment in the Wutan City area this time happens to be my mentor, she is a Five Star Da Dou Shi, with your sister helping you, there will definitely be no problem."
"Hehe, that's good." Hearing this, a few traces of joy suddenly appeared on Xiao Ning's face.
Xiao Yan didn't pay too much attention to it. After exchanging glances with his father, Xiao Yan didn't follow the main group into the auction house, but turned and went to the VIP room of the auction house.
Xiao Yan's every move can be said to have attracted everyone's attention. Not long after Xiao Yan left, several people wearing Galio Clan costumes hurriedly ran to the auction house and informed Galio Bi of Xiao Yan's departure.
After hearing this, Galio Bi smiled coldly and said, "It doesn't matter, even if he has the pill formula, it's useless. Even the Mittel Auction House doesn't sell those medicinal herbs to the Xiao Clan, I'll see what they use to make pills!"
...
Outside the VIP room, two maids opened the door, and what came into view was Ya Fei, who was wearing a red cheongsam, showing off her plump figure to the fullest.
"Xiao Yan-didi, I knew you would come to me." Ya Fei had a charming smile on her pretty face. From the news that Xiao Zhan brought two days ago, she knew that the medicine in Xiao Yan's medicine gourd was poison! She was also very curious about what kind of poison Xiao Yan was going to feed the two major families.
Xiao Yan walked calmly to the living room, sat on the sofa, and directly asked straightforwardly: "Ya Fei-jie, have you already sold all the medicinal herbs in stock to the two major families?"
Ya Fei fiddled with her hair, stared at Xiao Yan's face and said, "Isn't this what didi wanted to see?"
Ya Fei took out a contract and said, "Not only the existing ones, but the four medicinal herbs from the herbal medicine picking team and medicine garden owned by our Mittel Auction House will be sold to Ao Jia Market first for the next five years."
Originally, commercial contracts were confidential, but Ya Fei directly handed the contract signed the day before yesterday to Xiao Yan to read.
Because she felt that this was all Xiao Yan's doing, and there was no point in hiding it.
The contract was also very simple: the two major clans paid a deposit to reserve those four medicinal herbs for the next five years at the same price as the medicine merchants.
It sounds complicated, but it's basically futures.
Xiao Yan couldn't hide his smile after seeing the contract; he knew the two major clans were about to be finished.
"Xiao Yan, little brother, could you tell this big sister what kind of medicine you're selling in your gourd? This big sister has helped you quite a bit." Ya Fei slowly stood up, walked to Xiao Yan's side, and a strand of hair inadvertently brushed across Xiao Yan's cheek. A faint rose fragrance entered Xiao Yan's nose, immediately giving him a sense of relaxation.
Xiao Yan couldn't help but curse 'fox spirit' in his heart.
Xiao Yan composed himself and said casually, "Although I would also like to have a candlelit conversation with Ya Fei, if Ya Fei doesn't prepare soon, the auction is about to begin, and I'm still waiting to buy things."
Seeing that Xiao Yan didn't show much interest in her appearance, Ya Fei's eyebrows couldn't help but lift in surprise: Today, this old lady used Man-Slaying Style perfume! And it didn't even capture a fifteen-year-old boy? Not long after, Xiao Yan returned to the auction house and sat beside Xiao Zhan, nodding to Xiao Zhan.
The auction also began soon after.
Xiao Yan looked at the auction catalog, and there was one item that was perfect for today's performance.
