Chapter 5866 Truth-Restoring Grass
As more and more people entered the venue, most of them knew each other. No matter how close they were, it was still necessary to greet each other when they met, and so the people around Lin Yi slowly dispersed.
To put it bluntly, this small-scale trade fair was similar to the cocktail parties in the secular world. They would eat, drink, and build relationships. In the end, everyone would take out what they were willing to trade and say what they wanted. If they were satisfied, they would make a deal. It was very simple.
Wei shenjin naturally stayed by Lin Yi\'s side, so Shang Yuhua stayed as well. The three of them sat in an inconspicuous corner, chatting, drinking tea, and eating spirit fruits. It was quite a pleasant scene.
When almost everyone had arrived, ao Tianba came out and stood on the high platform."Distinguished guests, I welcome everyone to participate in the small trade fair that I, ao Tianba, am holding tonight. Let\'s cut to the chase and begin today\'s trade!"
Lin Yi did some calculations-there were three hundred people in total in this Hall. One Jade tag could only bring two people, but most of them came in alone. They were all people with status, after all, and it wasn\'t appropriate for followers to come. So, excluding the few who came with them and the ones who gave out the Jade tags, ao Tianba was able to earn two to three million spirit Jade just from the entrance fee. He was a business-minded man!
Ao Tianba\'s face was also glowing as he took out a Jade box and said,""Next, I\'ll be throwing bricks and guiding Jade. I\'ll take out some small things to warm everyone up. Don\'t laugh at me if they\'re not good."
"Captain ao Tian, you\'re too humble. How can the things you\'ve taken out be bad? hurry up and show us!" Someone from below raised his voice. Lin Yi didn\'t know if it was ao Tianba\'s guy, but he didn\'t know who the person was.
Ao Tianba smiled and nodded at the man. He opened the lid of the jade box and said,""This is a thousand-year-old recovery grass, it can be used to make the recovery pill. As everyone knows, the recovery pill is a Qi recovery pill for the cultivators of the beginning stage. It\'s not very precious, but it\'s a Mystic first level pill. A low quality recovery pill can instantly recover all the Qi that was used up by a cultivator of the beginning stage. If it\'s in a battle, this pill can save a life!"
Some people below were already gasping. Although there weren\'t many big shots here, it didn\'t mean that they didn\'t have one behind them. The truth restoration grass was a very important strategic material during the opening stage. It wasn\'t a small thing as ao Tianba had said. It was definitely a good thing!
"As an item to use as a guide for throwing bricks and jades, I don\'t have to specify what I want to exchange this thousand-year truth restoration grass for. As long as everyone sees something similar, it\'ll be fine. Of course, you can also buy it with spiritual jades!" Ao Tianba smiled as he looked around at the people around him. He had indeed taken out the truth restoration grass to liven up the atmosphere. Otherwise, this thing would be useful to him, and he wouldn\'t have to sell it.
"Captain ao Tian, how much spiritual Jade are you planning to sell this truth-restoring grass for?" Some people couldn\'t help but start to inquire about the price. Those who went to the auction on the northernmost Island had no lack of spiritual Jade. As for the good things, they would not take them out if they could. For them, spiritual Jade was the most useless thing.
"I won\'t name a price," ao Tianba said with a smile."Everyone can just see that it\'s about the market price."
Everyone silently cursed the old fox in their hearts. How much was it about the market price? Could the market price of the North Island be the same as the market price of the northernmost Island? Moreover, there were definitely more than one or two people here who wanted the truth restoring grass. They clearly wanted people to bid for it, and then the one with the highest price would get it!
However, ao Tianba\'s move was indeed the best way to liven up the atmosphere. As long as this truth restoring grass could be auctioned for a high price, the tone of the subsequent auction would be set. If it wasn\'t a good thing, no one would be embarrassed to take it out.
"I bid a million spirit Jade!" The person who had asked the question earlier did not waste any more time and immediately bid one million spiritual Jade.
Ao Tianba only smiled and said nothing. One million spirit Jade was indeed the market price, but it was only the market price of the central, Western, and central islands. However, it was basically impossible to buy the thousand-year truth restoration grass at this price. Ao Tianba was not in a hurry. This was just the beginning, and he believed that there would be new bids soon.
"I bid two million spirit Jade!" Another person made a bid, and the price was doubled. Unfortunately, the price was still low. The herb could be sold for at least four million spirit jade pieces in an auction. Now that they were on their way to the northernmost Island, no one believed that they could get the herb for two million spirit jade pieces.
Ao Tianba had only said that a low-grade recovery pill could instantly recover the true Qi of an early stage mountain split cultivator. In fact, a high-grade recovery pill could also recover the injuries of the user in an instant! Otherwise, there would be other elixirs that could recover true Qi, and the truth restoration grass would not be so sought after. Its most valuable part was the word "instant"!
In such an intense battle, what was the difference between this and having an extra life? A sect-opening powerhouse was a top-notch existence to any force. What was a mere spiritual Jade to give them an extra chance to live?
In just four rounds of bidding, the thousand-year-old herb of truth restoration had already been called a sky-high price of five million spiritual Jade. However, this was still within the normal price range, and ao Tianba was not satisfied with it either.
However, at this point, the bidding became more cautious. There were almost no bids of one or two million spirit Jade, and they were all raised by one or two hundred thousand. In the end, the herb was sold for eight million and three hundred thousand spirit Jade.
If it was just a truth restoration pill, it would easily break through ten million. Unfortunately, this was just truth restoration grass. To make a pill, you would need to find a high level Alchemist. There were not many alchemists in the three islands who could make Mystic first level.
Lin Yi felt that it was a pity-he wanted the herb as well. He didn\'t have the recipe for the recovery pill, but it wasn\'t anything special-it was easy to get. With the Shennong cauldron, making the pill shouldn\'t be a problem at all.
He had quite a lot of spirit Jade, but he couldn\'t just squander it on something that wasn\'t necessary-he had to give it up, but Lin Yi felt that ao Tianba might have more than one thousand-year-old recovery grass ... He\'d just ask him if he needed help with the pill later ...
