Douluo: Wuhun Seven Killing Sword, Sword Opens the Gate of Heaven

Chapter 369: Convenience Brought by Strength, Black Market in Quaker City

After talking with Flanders for a long time and it was getting dark, Tang San and the others said goodbye and left.

Seeing that they were far away from the wooden house, Dai Mubai couldn't help but ask, "Xiao San, is there still hope for Hongjun?"

After all, he was once his good brother, and he would not stand by and watch him die if he had the chance.

Tang San shook his head, "It's basically hopeless. Unless we get the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng, a magical herb with overbearing medicinal power."

"But, this herb can also save you."

Although he did not say it explicitly, his attitude was clear.

For Dai Mubai, if he really gets the crystal blood dragon ginseng, will he give it to Ma Hongjun?
He still understood the principle that it is better to let my friend die than to let me die.

Ma Hongjun had left him for many years, and the so-called brotherhood had long faded.

Tang Xiao thought for a moment and said in a deep voice: "I seem to remember that the heirloom of the Min family is the crystal blood dragon ginseng."

Dai Mubai's eyes lit up and he quickly asked about the situation of the Min clan.

Tang San said helplessly, "The Min clan has already joined the Tianjian Sect, and the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng is probably also in the Tianjian Sect's treasure house."

His hopes were extinguished again and again, and Dai Mubai felt like a deflated ball.

Tang San smiled and said: "The Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng is the heirloom of the Min clan. I think it has been picked for many years. Such a domineering natural treasure will not appear twice on the continent at the same time, but if the first one was picked decades ago, it is possible that the second one has been bred."

"In the future, when I am training on the mainland, I may find the crystal blood dragon ginseng. Moreover, not only this magical herb, but also some healing magical herbs can heal your injuries."

……

Five days before the auction begins.

Ning Tianchen and others assisted Zhao Yi in settling the affairs in the city, and then set off for Kuike City.

Tiandou City, Xingluo City, and Wuhun City are the top first-tier cities on Douluo Continent.

Cities of the size of Quick City and Hanhai City can already be called first-tier cities.

The city has all kinds of facilities and business is very prosperous.

After entering the city, Ning Tianchen and others walked into a luxurious hotel.

The waiter came forward with an apologetic look on his face, "Sorry, gentlemen, the hotel suites are full."

When they arrived in Quaker City, there were still more than three days until the auction.

Many guests who decided to attend the auction arrived in the city early, so it was not surprising that the hotels were full.

"Why don't we go to a cheaper hotel? This one is too luxurious." Zhao Yi said in a low voice.

Ning Tianchen had his reasons for choosing a luxury hotel.

These luxury hotels often have redundant suites, which are prepared for those who are in a superior position.

This auction is considered the most eye-catching event in the entire western part of the empire in recent times. Many people come from all directions just to join in the fun.

It goes without saying that the affordable and mid-range hotels are fully booked.

Ning Tianchen took out the elder order issued to him by the Spirit Hall from his soul guide and showed it to the waiter.

Every leader of the top three sects is an honorary elder of the Spirit Hall. If the leaders of the bottom four sects can break through to the Titled Douluo level, they can also receive the Elder Order issued by the Spirit Hall.

A waiter who can work in a hotel of this size naturally has extraordinary knowledge.

Those who hold the Elder Order are either of high status or have the strength of a Titled Douluo. In either case, the hotel cannot afford to offend them.

The hotel manager who noticed the situation stepped forward and put the waiter behind him.

The manager apologized to Ning Tianchen and the others with a smile on his face, "I'm sorry, my dear guests. My surname is Liu, and I'm the manager here. If you need anything, just tell me, and I'll do my best to get it done."

As he spoke, he led everyone into the VIP lounge.

Ning Tianchen said: "Arrange a suite for us. The cost is not a problem. Also, help us get the tickets for the auction."

Nobles who want to attend the auction here will definitely stay in high-end hotels in the city.

The auction house has cooperation with these high-end hotels, so admission tickets are not a problem.

Manager Liu skipped the steps of capital verification and identity verification, and respectfully handed the highest-level admission ticket to Ning Tianchen.

After all, there is no document on the mainland that is more convincing than the Spirit Hall's Elder Order.

"Thank you very much." Ning Tianchen gave a bag of gold soul coins as a tip as usual.

Feng Xiaotian immediately said, "Manager Liu, by the way, is there a black market nearby?"

Selling nine hundred-year soul bones in an open transaction would inevitably attract attention.

The black market, an underground trading place, is actually safer.

Manager Liu smiled and took out a letter of recommendation from his pocket. "Dear guests, you can go on your own. Of course, I can also accompany you if necessary."

"You have all this?" Chen Huayu was amazed at the other party's complete preparation.

Manager Liu smiled professionally and explained, "After all, this is my job, so it's only natural."

"If you have nothing else to do, I'll take you to choose a suite. If you need anything later, I'll be there at your service."

Zhao Yi watched all this in amazement.

As the city lord and a viscount, he has never enjoyed such special treatment.

The hotel manager allowed them to choose freely from suites that others couldn't even book even if they had the money, and they could even change the interior decoration of the suites according to their personal preferences!
The most important thing is that it only costs twenty gold soul coins to stay in a suite for one night, which is even lower than the price of an ordinary suite.

What kind of magical treatment is this!
It is impossible to say that I am not envious.

He secretly swore in his heart that he would work hard to practice in the future and strive to reach Ning Tianchen's level.

……

After checking into the suite, Ning Tianchen saw Zhao Yi's expression and explained for him: "The business logic behind the hotel is not what you think."

"Hotels have limited ways to make money. The owner of the hotel set the price of the suite so low in order to make more friends."

in business.

In business, it is important to have more friends and more paths. We provide accommodation facilities at low prices for the powerful and nobles. When doing business in the future, these powerful and nobles will become the boss's "backers" in disguise.

Chen Huayu had been training on the mainland for several years and had studied under Ning Tianchen for a long time, so he was very familiar with the tricks of these bosses.

"Xiaodi Zhao, you should go to a big city when you have nothing to do. The power and money transactions here will definitely open your eyes."

Ning Tianchen held his hand and interrupted, "Okay, there's no need to discuss this kind of thing."

"Our main purpose for coming here is to purchase some strategic materials needed by the sect at the auction."

"It's still early, so you all go out and ask about the items being auctioned. Rongrong, Zhao Yi, and I will go to the black market and see if there are any supplies worth buying."

After the arrangements were made, everyone split into two groups and went their separate ways after leaving the hotel.

Looking at their backs, the hotel waiter who had received them earlier couldn't help but ask the manager, "Manager Liu, is the Pope's Order in their hands fake? Judging from their age, how could they be Titled Douluo?"

Manager Liu glared at her and warned her, "Who told you that if someone looks young, he or she is definitely not a Titled Douluo?"

"I can sense that young man has an aura of transcendence. His strength is probably at an extremely terrifying level."

"This kind of person is likely to be a strong person who looks young but is actually very old."

As they were talking, a young man skipped into the hotel and shouted, "Who is the manager? Please prepare a suite for me." "Little brother, we have no vacant rooms here," the waiter replied politely.

Without saying anything, the young man took out the papal decree from his bosom and threw it into the hands of the waiter.

The manager smiled helplessly at the waiter, "Don't judge a person by his appearance. Try to change your temper."

Then, he took the boy to the suite, "Senior, please follow me."

……

The auction is about to begin, and the flow of people at the black market in Quick City is several times higher than usual.

No matter where or where things on the black market come from, as long as you have money, you can buy them.

There are multiple entrances to the black market, and all of them are extremely hidden.

If it weren't for Manager Liu's instructions, they probably wouldn't have been able to find this place at all.

I handed the letter of introduction to the waiter at the door, and after confirmation, the waiter distributed special masks to everyone.

A strong man led everyone through a long dark alley and arrived in front of a dilapidated building.

The burly man gave a secret message to the people in the building, and the door slowly opened.

The building was dilapidated, but following the sturdy man into the basement, I found a different world inside.

It seemed that the entire underground of the street had been hollowed out to create an unparalleled underground kingdom.

"Dear guests, please don't make trouble. On behalf of the Underground Kingdom, I wish you a pleasant experience."

After saying this, the strong man left them.

"Brother Tianchen, this is it..."

Ning Tianchen made a silent gesture, "Don't call me by my name. This is also an underground intelligence center. If you reveal your identity, you will be in big trouble."

Ning Rongrong nodded seriously.

She grew up in the light and had never experienced the trials of blood and tears, so she naturally didn't know the ins and outs of it.

Ning Tianchen pointed to a stall not far away and said, "That should be where they sell intelligence. Let's go over and ask."

They did not have any deployment in Quick City, and this time they were gathering intelligence just to find a suitable seller for the soul bones.

When we arrived at the stall, the boss, an old man, asked lazily, "Do you want a plate of sea bottom or a passerby?"

As the city lord, Zhao Yi had dealt with this kind of people before. He explained, "Are they asking us for intelligence or for a middleman?"

Ning Tianchen said: "You decide for yourself, it's your business."

The old man glanced at Zhao Yi and said with a smile: "Hai Chizi (official), be careful, this place is not friendly."

Zhao Yi clasped his fists to him and said, "I need an interpreter to pick out some things (to sell)."

The old man took a note from under the counter and pressed it under his hand, "Ten gold soul coins."

Zhao Yi paid the money, the old man took his hand away, and the note fell into his hand.

Zhao Yi said: "I'll go deal with it first, and I'll come find you later."

"Brother, let's go over there and take a look." Ning Rongrong pointed to a stall not far away.

The old man smiled happily, "Money makes the world go round, don't you want to play with the seabed?"

Ning Tianchen waved his hand and declined his kindness.

The Nine Treasures Glazed Pagoda spirit has the ability to identify treasures, so it is not easy to cheat them.

There should be an end to the things sold on the black market, even the Gold Soul Card.

A purple gold soul card worth ten thousand can be purchased for only ninety million gold soul coins.

Ning Rongrong was surprised and asked, "Is there anything for sale here?"

To be precise, this is "washing black buns".

There is a special anti-counterfeiting pattern on the Golden Soul Card. If you spend it directly after getting it, you will easily be caught.

I guess this Gold Soul Card was stolen from a noble by a thief. Fearing he would be caught, he chose to cash it out quickly in this way.

Ning Rongrong was somewhat moved.

With the capabilities of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, it is entirely possible to purchase these Gold Soul Cards in large quantities.

With their means, there is no risk at all if they want to spend the money.

Ning Tianchen shook his head and explained seriously: "Not all money can be taken. The situation on the continent is unclear, and it is not a wise choice to create too many enemies for the sect."

After a round of shopping, the two browsed almost all the stalls.

During this time, they bought some insignificant items.

What they want most must be soul bones, but this thing doesn't seem to be sold on the black market.

Come to think of it, if there were thieves who really stole the soul bones, they would not sell them on the black market.

The boss behind the black market is certainly powerful, but compared to the major powers, he is clearly not as powerful as them.

Just imagine, if Hu Liena was killed and her soul bones appeared on a black market, do you think Bibi Dong and Jue Wu Douluo would flood the entire black market?

These thieves will most likely sell the soul bones they snatch to the contacts of various major forces outside.

After all, even if they were friendly forces, they would not return the soul bones of the other sect. Moreover, they would not reveal the identity of the seller, otherwise who would dare to sell good things to them.

After an unknown amount of time, they saw Zhao Yi in a corner.

He was discussing the price with a buyer, but judging by their attitude, it seemed they had not yet reached an agreement.

“Nine hundred-year soul bones are not easy to sell.” Ning Tianchen smiled and glanced at the other party.

In the world of soul masters, the rarity of hundred-year soul bones is second only to soul bones that are over fifty thousand years old.

The probability of a hundred-year-old soul beast producing soul bones is very low.

The intelligence of hundred-year-old soul beasts is very low, and even if they are killed, they may not be aware of it, so this method will not increase the probability of soul bones appearing.

But the Wolf Thief is a special soul beast, a hundred-year-old Wolf Thief. Because half of their blood comes from humans, their intelligence is often higher than that of ordinary thousand-year-old soul beasts.

This is also why Feng Xiaotian and others were able to find nine hundred-year-old soul bones from the Wolf Thief.

Because of this, the buyer couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive when he saw so many hundred-year-old soul bones at once.

You know, the smaller the quantity, the easier it is to track down. The buyer dare not bet that the source of Zhao Yi's soul bone must be clean.

While waiting, a shout came from a stall not far away, "Come and have a look, there are only three horns of unicorn whales, and they will be sold out while stocks last."

Since it is sold with such fanfare, I guess the goods must have a clean origin.

Ning Tianchen and the other two came over.

Just by hearing the name, you can tell that the narwhal is a sea soul beast.

However, this soul beast is very special. The single horn growing on its head will become extremely bright under the moonlight, and can illuminate the area of ​​dozens of meters around it.

This item is a good choice whether for collection or for sailing. (End of this chapter)
