Taoist companions help me live forever

VIP lounge in Baibao Building.

Yu Xian slumped on the chair, looking pale and panting slightly.

His back was already wet with sweat, and the high-intensity sweeping of goods consumed his mental energy rapidly, causing his state to have already exceeded the warning line he had set for himself.

But thinking that hundreds of thousands of silver coins were about to be collected by him, his tired body seemed to be injected with new energy.

"Master, are you okay?"

Yulan had never seen Yu Xian in this state before, and couldn't help but worry.

Yu Xian exhaled a breath and comforted him:

"It's okay, just get some sleep and you'll be fine."

"Please help me keep an eye on the situation outside. I'll take a rest first."

He gave a few instructions, and without waiting for Yulan's reply, he half-leaned on the chair, rested his head on his hands, closed his eyes and meditated, falling into a state of trance.

Spiritual consciousness mainly consumes one's own mental power, just like ordinary people staying up late, it can be adjusted back after a certain rest period.

Although Yu Xian has never been exposed to the secret method of spiritual consciousness, he can still do simple meditation.

I don't know if it was due to too much consumption, but Yu Xian's meditation went surprisingly smoothly this time.

His physical body seemed to have turned into a thoughtless stone statue, and his consciousness became extremely sharp because of it. His spirit extended out from the physical body, like tiny tentacles with claws and teeth, carefully testing the situation in the outside world. A warm feeling.

I don’t know how much time passed.

Yu Xian saw a flash of blood in front of his eyes, as if a great terror was coming, and he suddenly woke up.

"Fuck!"

Peng!

The teacup on the table was knocked to the ground by Yu Xian's waving arm, and it flew open like a water lotus, splashing water all over the ground.

Yulan, who was dozing off, woke up and hurried over.

"Master, what's wrong with you?!"

Yu Xian thought of the scene he just saw and couldn't help but feel a lingering fear. He wondered if this was some kind of omen.

Ordinary people still have a sixth sense. As a cultivator, he has a sharper spirit and can sense the nature of heaven and earth. He has to pay attention to the occasional whim.

Could it be that he made too much money this time and was killed?

This is the only reason that Yu Xian can think of.

After all, he had been living in seclusion since he became a priest in the palace. He usually took his girls on sightseeing tours, eating, drinking and having fun. He had no chance of making any enemies.

The only suspect is Ding Leding, but it's not that he looks down on people, it's just because of his strength, which is the level of a fireball.

Furthermore, for the sake of a little face and a thousand taels of silver, Ding Zongfeng would not have a deadly feud with him.

So what could have caused him to sense danger?

Yu Xian fell into deep thought.

Yulan saw Yu Xian suddenly stunned and didn't speak, and was so frightened that she couldn't help but hold her breath and didn't dare to disturb him.

a long time.

Yu Xian rubbed his brows and let out a long breath.

Mad, my brain is weak and I can’t think of anything.

But this must be related to the large sum of money he got this time, so for safety reasons, he quickly took the money and left, hiding back to the palace.

As far as he knew, since he was assassinated by Chen Xiao last time, Prince Fu had made great efforts to transform Prince Fu's palace. Now the palace is full of organs and arteries.

If any trouble comes to the door, it will be King Fu who goes out to take the blame first.

"Magnolia, what time is it now? How are my rocks doing?"

Yu Xian couldn't help but ask when he saw that the lights in the room were already lit.

Yulan answered truthfully: "Sir, it's just after Xu Shi (seven to nine p.m.), and I've been asleep for almost two hours.

Today's jade exhibition has ended. Manager Liu is taking a rest and asked me not to disturb you.

The stones I selected were only half-opened. Manager Liu said he would wait until tomorrow to continue. He also said that when the news spreads, more customers would pay attention and the price would be higher. "

Yu Xian was in good spirits now. He stood up and opened the door: "I am more concerned about how much money the stone was sold for today?"

But as soon as he went out, he saw Lan Xiaohe standing guard outside the door. His head was beating a little bit, and he was obviously very tired.

"Miss Lan." Yu Xian called softly.

Lan Xiaohe woke up immediately, saw Yu Xian, and quickly greeted him.

"Master Yu."

Yu Xian asked: "Miss Lan is waiting for me?"

Lan Xiaohe replied: "Yes, sir, the steward said that when you wake up, he will let me invite you over."

…

Yu Xian soon saw Manager Liu. His face was red and he seemed to be in good spirits. He was talking to the bearded Lu Yuan.

The exhibition hall on the second floor was not as deserted as he imagined.

On the contrary, many people remained.

In addition to the exhibition hall guards patrolling the Baobao Building, there were one or two housekeepers left in almost every exhibition hall.

The jade stones on the booth were not trinkets that could be packed and moved in a single roll, but heavy boulders that took a lot of effort just to move up.

Therefore, in addition to putting away some light and precious jade, it is best to leave those bulky and large items to others to look at.

The entire exhibition hall on the second floor is filled with candles, illuminating the entire lobby. There is no need to worry about any accidents caused by the dark lights.

"Yu Zongfeng is truly a god!"

When Manager Liu saw Yu Xian coming over, he gave a big salute on the spot, his head bent directly to his knees, and he almost fell into worship.

Yu Xian shook his head and laughed: "Manager Liu, this is too exaggerated."

"No exaggeration, no exaggeration at all."

Manager Liu looked proud and said:

“I want to record this incident and write it on my tombstone in the future, so that future generations can remember what kind of grand event their ancestors participated in.

There are ninety-six consecutive stones, and there is no mistake or omission. Each one has a treasure. If I hadn't personally participated, how could I have believed that such a bizarre thing would happen.

Fortunately, I participated in it personally, otherwise I wouldn’t have been able to experience the numbing emotion of excitement.

Yu Zongfeng, did you know that the guests almost went crazy?

Even our host was alerted and heard that you were resting. He also said that he would like to visit you in person next time he has the opportunity. "

Yu Xian waved his hands and said, "I don't care about any of this. I just want to know how much silver was sold. Is it enough for ninety thousand taels?"

Manager Liu turned around and took out a wooden box. When he opened it, it was full of banknotes. Because there were so many, it felt like waste paper.

"For the rest of my offering, I fortunately lived up to my command. There are a total of one hundred and twenty-six thousand, five hundred and forty taels of silver here."

Only then did Yu Xian's eyes light up and he said to Lu Yuan:

"Brother Lu, I'll give you a 10% discount on the price. I'll give you eighty-nine thousand taels. Let's clear the money and goods."

Lu Yuan experienced the crazy scene in the afternoon, and now it was not awkward at all to call him brother.

"Brother Yu, you have made so much, why are you arguing with me about such a small amount of money?"

Yu Xian choked for a moment, and then said righteously: "This is not a matter of care or not, but a matter of faith. Let's say it is how much it is.

If you just sit around and raise prices at random, and care about petty profits, this is not the way to do business, and you are destined to not be able to go far and become a big businessman.

Since you call me big brother, I can't let you go astray! "

Lu Yuan was speechless by what he said. He could only shout in his heart that he had learned it, and then he obediently collected 89,000 taels of silver and sold the treasure of the store.

In the end, Baibaolou received a commission of 10%, which was 12,000 taels. Manager Liu took the initiative to wipe out the fraction and bought jade flowers for 98,000 taels, leaving a balance of 16,500 taels.

Yu Xian did the math, and the more money he spent, the more money he got.

He saw that there were still a lot of raw ores, and suddenly his heart moved.

"Manager Liu, I want to do a business with your Baobao Building. I wonder if you can make the decision?"

Manager Liu didn't react for a while, but that didn't stop him from answering confidently:

"In the Baibao Tower, I can still make the decision."

"Well, I plan to package these stones and sell them to you Baibaolou. I wonder what price you can offer?"

I am content with my leisure and have no intention of earning the last copper.

Just like he is willing to give 10% of the commission to Baibaolou. In fact, Baibaolou's apparent contribution is not worth so much money, but it can avoid a lot of trouble for him.

"ah?"

Manager Liu was startled and asked cautiously, "I wonder how much money Yu Gongfeng plans to ask for? If it's too much, I'm afraid I won't be able to make the decision."

Yu Xian said: "There are at least 200 taels of raw ore left here, but I only need 150,000 taels, and I can guarantee that every stone here has materials.

But only for today, you can only trade in gold. "

"This is natural. Yu Chongfeng's strength is obvious to all today."

Manager Liu complimented, and then thought for a while before saying: "This matter is of great importance. I have to ask the host for instructions. If Yu Zongfeng can wait for me for another hour, I can give him an answer."

"Okay." Yu Xian nodded.

Since he planned to avoid trouble in the palace, he didn't plan to go out again, even if he made a little less money, it wouldn't be a big deal.

To be on the safe side, he exchanged the banknote for gold. The banknotes mainly depended on the creditworthiness of the bank, but gold was the hard currency, and he could also refine it into weapon refining materials when necessary.

An hour later.

Yu Xian got into Baibaolou's carriage.

In addition to the two people in the carriage, there was also a piece of green jade originally worth 100,000 taels, and a box of gold worth 150,000 taels.
