"Do you buy Taixu Soil here? Half a pound of Taixu Soil costs one thousand mid-grade spirit stones. If you want more, the price can be negotiated further."

Backstage at Wanbao Auction House, Sheng He took out a small bag of Taixu Soil and placed it on the table.

"Half... jin?"

Since Taixu Soil sold for a high price in Cangshan City a few years ago, its reputation has spread far and wide, and many sects have come to Wanbao Auction House to inquire about Taixu Soil.

Unfortunately, despite the high price offered by Wanbao Auction House over the past few years, the far north is simply too cold. Even if cultivators are willing to risk their lives to search for the Taixu Soil, all their efforts have come to nothing.

Five years ago, assassins from the Seven Killings Pavilion appeared in Yunluo City, near the far north. It is said that those assassins were also after the Taixu Land, and they all died tragically, which made even fewer cultivators willing to go to the far north.

Wang Tong looked at the girl in front of him with some doubt. Her face was covered with a thin layer of spiritual energy, which should be a disguise. However, judging from her voice, the girl should not be very old, at most sixteen or seventeen years old.

It wasn't that he intended to look down on people; it's just that all the world's treasures are valued for their rarity, especially since the Taixu Soil hadn't been seen for several years, and even a single ounce could fetch a high price now.

Even though he had worked at Wanbao Auction House for so many years, he had never seen anyone with such a big mouth, talking about half a jin right off the bat.

Fortunately, Wang Tong had been in the antique appraisal business for many years and was very experienced. He quickly calmed down and picked up the small bag of Taixu Soil on the table to examine it carefully.

After a long pause, he put down the Void Soil, glanced at Sheng He without showing any emotion, and said, "It is indeed Void Soil. May I ask how much you have, young lady? Our Wanbao Auction House will take it all."

"Oh, not much, maybe sixty or seventy pounds."

As Sheng He spoke, he took out a heavy burlap sack from his storage bag and threw it on the ground.

"Boom!"

The sack landed on the ground with a dull thud, startling Wang Tong so much that he almost fell off his chair.

"This... so much..."

He pulled a handkerchief from his sleeve to wipe the sweat from his forehead, then cautiously looked around. Seeing that no one was around, he rushed forward to close the door, then squatted down and opened the sack.

Really!

It was all genuine Taixu Soil!

"Miss, please wait a moment. There are too many Taixu Soil to make a decision on. Please sit down for a while, and I will go find our young master!"

Wang Tong smiled and watched Sheng He sit down on the stool, then dashed out as if afraid that if he was even a little slow, this god of wealth would slip away.

In less than half an incense stick's time, Wang Tong returned, panting, with a young man following behind him.

The man was wearing a purple robe, had a handsome face, and held a folding fan in his hand. He must have run all the way here, because there was a thin layer of sweat on his forehead.

Jiang Xuanli leaned against the wall with one hand, panting heavily, while fanning himself with the other.

He did indeed run all the way here.

He was discussing business in the restaurant when he heard Wang Tong talk about what happened here. Fearing that he would be late and Sheng He would go to find his competitor, he didn't even call Boss Li and ran two streets to get here.

"Girl... how much Taixu Earth do you have?"

"We...we want them all!"

Sheng He thoughtfully offered her chair: "Why don't you sit down and rest for a while?"

"No... no hurry."

Jiang Xuanli walked in unsteadily, supported by Wang Tong. He first looked at the Taixu Soil in the sack, his eyes lit up, and then turned to look at Sheng He.

"Young lady, how many spirit stones did you say?"

"Half a pound of Taixu Soil equals one thousand mid-grade spirit stones."

Jiang Xuanli weighed the sack in his hand, put away the folding fan, and laughed, "Alright! We'll take them all!"

"There are a total of 78 catties of Taixu Soil here, which is equivalent to 156,000 mid-grade spirit stones, or 1,560 high-grade spirit stones."

"Wang Tong!"

"Yes."

Wang Tong immediately took out a scale and re-weighed the Taixu Soil. The weight was exactly the same as what Jiang Xuanli had said. After showing the scale to Sheng He, he took out a storage bag from his pocket and handed it to Sheng He.

"Young lady, here are your spirit stones, please count them."

Sheng He opened the storage bag, glanced at it, and immediately put it away.

"No need. I trust Wanbao Auction House. I have some things here; see if you'd like to take them."

After Sheng He finished speaking, he took out three large sacks from his storage bag and threw them on the ground.

Jiang Xuanli opened it and was instantly dazzled by the various bright crystals. He casually picked out a red crystal. The crystal was bright and clear, and its interior was pure and flawless. It was obviously a top-grade crystal.

"you……"

Jiang Xuanli tentatively asked, "How much do you plan to sell these crystal girls for?"

"Ten mid-grade spirit stones each."

The price was actually a bit high. Although these crystals were of high quality, they varied in size, and color also affected the price. However, upon glancing at the sack full of Taixu Soil next to him, Jiang Xuanli readily agreed.

Wang Tong counted the number of spirit stones, a total of nine hundred and eighty-one. After paying for the spirit stones, Jiang Xuanli put on his signature smile and took out a pure gold thumb ring from his sleeve and handed it to Sheng He.

"To thank you for your trust in Wanbao Auction House, I'm giving you this thumb ring as a keepsake. With this token, you can enter Wanbao Auction House's auction room for free, and you will enjoy a 20% discount on any items you purchase at Wanbao Auction House in the future."

Sheng He didn't stand on ceremony and took the ring, putting it on his hand.

"Thank you."

Maintaining good customer relationships is also an essential skill for being a good employer. Jiang Xuanli looked at Sheng He with a smile:

"By the way, there's an auction going on in the city today. Would you like to go and take a look, young lady? If you see anything you like, I can personally give you a 30% discount!"

Sheng He nodded. She had made quite a haul today, and could pick out some gifts to take back to Mu Yao and Yun Qianshan.

Jiang Xuanli made a "please" gesture.

"May I ask your name, young lady?"

"Sheng He".

"Miss Sheng, please."

Perhaps because the headquarters of Wanbao Auction House is located in Sheng'an City, the auction venue here is extremely large, with two floors in total. The lower floor is arranged exactly the same as the one in Cangshan City.

The upper level consists of individual private rooms, each with two windows that offer a clear view of the entire auction venue. The rooms are exquisitely furnished, with fruits, tea, and snacks laid out on the tables, providing both comfort and a degree of privacy.

Sheng He followed Jiang Xuanli in, so she was directly led into the largest side room, where two scantily clad maids stood.

As soon as Sheng He and Jiang Xuanli entered, two maids came forward to greet them, pulling Sheng He to sit down on the soft couch from either side.

"Young lady, are you tired? Let me massage your legs."

"Miss, are you hungry? Shall I feed you a piece of peach pastry?"
