Chapter three hundred and twenty first compromise
"I'm here to see Wu Tiande, I wonder what the young hero calls him?" the man said politely.
If Chu Yun hadn't decided that this guy must be a powerful person, he would have regarded him as an ordinary businessman.
Chu Yun did not look down on him at all and said, "I have met General Manager Wu. General Manager Wu is able to manage such a large-scale auction house, which makes me admire him."
"Young Master Chu was joking. I had been observing the side for a while just now. Seeing that the young master was talking very well, I wonder what I wanted to buy at my Shuntian Auction House this time?" Wu Tiande's smile on his face was very bright.
Chu Yun said: "Mr. Wu is indeed very keen. I am really planning to buy a few items. I wonder if Mr. Wu can do it conveniently?"
"Of course, our auction house opens its doors to do business. As long as the customers have needs, we will do our best to meet them." Wu Tiande said. He has been practicing keen eyes for many years in business. He could tell at a glance that Chu Yun is a real big customer, and such people naturally have to be well treated.
Although Shuntian Auction House does not have to worry about selling things, and even sets an entry fee at the door to restrict customers who are simply wandering in, Wu Tiande is very clear about the fact that things from his auction house are not so easy to sell.
It’s not that no one buys it, but the price for sale is too different from the price that the other party can give. For example, if you buy a level 7 pill, the lowest bid price of two thousand taels of gold in the auction house, and some level 7 pills with particularly powerful effects even reach tens of thousands taels of gold. However, most customers are often unwilling to offer such a price. After a bargaining, most of them are sold at 60,000 taels of gold.
After all, these elixirs were not blown by the strong wind. Some were purchased from other places, while others were employed to refine them. After deducting employment expenses and raw material expenses, the elixir yield rate of the elixir was calculated. The 70% discount price did not actually leave them much profit. This way, we can understand why Wu Tiande was so enthusiastic.
Chu Yun said: "Mr. Wu, I want to buy two Jinyang grasses, a Hunyuan fruit, and a deep-sea volcanic stone. Of course, if you have other precious things here, I am willing to buy them as long as the price is reasonable."
"Uh..." Wu Tiande's expression, which was originally smiling, suddenly froze. He was indeed a big customer, but it seemed that it was not that easy to entertain.
After a while, Wu Tiande said with a embarrassed look: "Young Master Chu is kidding? This Hunyuan Fruit is okay. There are two more items for sale in our auction house, but the Jinyang grass is a precious thing. We only use it for auction on weekdays, and not every auction is available. As for the deep-sea volcanic stone, you must have gone to the wrong place for Young Master Chu. Our place is located in the northwest and is 100,000 miles away from the sea. Not to mention the deep-sea volcanic stone, even the ordinary reefs in the sea, we can't find a piece here."
Chu Yun smiled embarrassedly, as if he felt that it was indeed a bit difficult for him to raise this deep-sea volcanic stone, but he was quite excited inside. It was a surprise to be able to find the Hunyuan Fruit here.
Hunyuan Fruit is also a treasure among rare medicinal materials. When I plundered the entire Qingcheng Sect, I did not find a Hunyuan Fruit, which shows that this thing is rare. But I didn’t expect that Hunyuan Fruit was found in this Shuntian Auction House.
Of course, what surprised Chu Yun the most was the meaning contained in Wu Tiande's words. He just said that Jinyang Grass is a precious thing and said that it was only used for auction, but he did not say that there was no Jinyang Grass in their auction house.
As long as there is Jinyang Grass here, Chu Yun will have the confidence to let the other party take it out.
He firmly believed that there is nothing that cannot be traded. If the other party is unwilling to trade, it only means that the price he paid is not high enough.
If you can get the Jinyang Grass, then you will only have the auxiliary medicine of deep-sea volcano stone to refine the True Qi Yuan Pill. Of course, it is impossible to only require these four medicinal materials to refine the True Qi Yuan Pill, but these four medicinal materials are the most precious. Other medicinal materials can be bought in many places as long as they have silver.
"Mr. Wu, I just want to ask, are there Jinyang grass in your auction house now?" Chu Yun was very direct.
Manager Wu was slightly stunned. He didn't expect Chu Yun to be so persistent. He hesitated for a moment and said, "There is indeed Jinyang grass, but there is only one. However, this Jinyang grass has been determined to be the finale of the auction in five days, so..."
Chu Yun's mouth curled slightly, and seeing that there were no one else around him, he immediately said, "Since it is the finale, I think there is no news about Jinyangcao."
"Although it was not publicly announced, it was still known in a small way." Manager Wu did not hide it.
Chu Yun said: "Since that's the case, it's better to make a deal. I will exchange it with you one thing. I think my thing is enough to be the finale of your auction house. Anyway, most people don't know what the finale of your auction is, right?"
Manager Wu looked helpless and said, "Young Master Chu, you are making things difficult for me! The merchants value confidence. Those who know the existence of Jinyang Grass are all VIP guests at the auction house. If we are not trustworthy, wouldn't we smash our own signature? Besides, Jinyang Grass will only take five days to auction. At that time, Chu Shaoxia comes to participate in the auction. Wouldn't it be enough to seize Jinyang Grass?"
Chu Yun said very simply: "I don't like to do things that I'm not sure about, and what I gave will definitely satisfy you, Mr. Wu."
Manager Wu smiled bitterly and said, "This is not a question of satisfaction or not, but..."
Chu Yun was also very depressed. Why didn’t Mr. Wu get in? Could it be that he felt that he couldn’t bring out any precious things? Chu Yun thought for a moment and said directly: “I’d better talk about my treasure first, a... ten thousand-year-old snow ginseng.”
"What?" Manager Wu was shocked, his eyes were almost ready to eat people.
Chu Yun reached out and shook his hand in front of Mr. Wu's eyes, and said, "Mr. Wu, don't be surprised at first, but tell me if this thing is enough to replace Jinyang grass."
Although he was asking, his words were full of confidence. After all, Jinyang grass can only be regarded as a precious medicinal material, while Wannian Xue Ginseng is a rare treasure in heaven and earth, and the two cannot be compared at all.
Manager Wu's face was gloomy and clear. To be honest, Wannian Xuezin was too shocked to him and was too tempting. As the head of Shuntian Auction House, he naturally knew what the auction of a Wannian Xuezin would bring to the auction house.
This is not just profit, but more importantly reputation.
Manager Wu clearly remembers that a treasure that was auctioned recently that can be compared with the rare treasures of heaven and earth is the Full Moon Scimitar. But that happened more than 20 years ago. In the past twenty years, many people have forgotten the glory of Shuntian Auction House.
Although the things placed in the corridor of the auction house's gate prove the once glory of the auction house, it was a thing of the past. If the auction house cannot come up with something that can shock the entire martial arts world as soon as possible, the auction house's business will definitely decline.
Manager Wu suppressed the shock and confusion in his heart. Since he knew the difference between Jinyang Grass and Wannian Xue Ginseng, there was no reason why Chu Yun, the owner of Wannian Xue Ginseng, didn't know it.
This is obviously not an equivalent exchange. Why did the other party do this? Is his demand for Jinyangcao extremely strong? This should not be. Jinyangcao is not a life-saving thing.
"Young Master Chu, this seems inappropriate. After all, the value of Jinyang grass is far less than that of Thousand Years of Snow Ginseng." Manager Wu said. As a businessman, he also has his own professional ethics.
Chu Yun said very firmly: "I know, I just want to ask Manager Wu now if you are willing to exchange."
However, General Manager Wu shook his head with great difficulty and said, "Please forgive me, Young Master Chu, I can't do it."
Chu Yun's depression was conceivable. He had said that he had said Wannian Xue Shen, but the other party could refuse. This person's recognition of business reputation had reached the level of madness.
Suddenly, General Manager Wu said: "Young Master Chu, if you really want to get the Jinyang Grass, I have a way to compromise."
Chu Yun was disappointed. Now, hearing what Mr. Wu said, a glimmer of hope arose in his heart and hurriedly said, "What kind of compromise?"
Manager Wu said quickly: "I listen to what Mr. Chu said. I think that the Wannian Snow Ginseng is not very useful to you. It is better to put it in our auction house for auction. We promise not to charge any handling fees. In addition, when the Jinyang grass auction was auctioned, Mr. Chu would make a quotation with confidence, and the money required would be deducted directly from the auction of Wannian Snow Ginseng. I wonder what Mr. Chu thought?"
Chu Yun sighed in his heart. Manager Wu was indeed a human being. He actually thought that the money he might carry with him was not sufficient. Moreover, by directly auctioning Wannian Xue Ginseng, he gained greater benefits. After all, Wannian Xue Ginseng is much more valuable than Jinyang Grass.
In fact, Chu Yun also knew that under normal circumstances, the property he carried was enough to buy Jinyang grass, but who could be accurate in the auction? If a fool appears and directly raise the price, who should he ask for to reason with him?
However, with Mr. Wu's words, Chu Yun was relieved. He really didn't believe that the auction price of Jinyang grass would be higher than that of Wannian Xue Shen.
"Yes! Then this matter is decided." Chu Yun said.
Manager Wu's face was suddenly overjoyed, but then he stared at Chu Yun blankly. The other party seemed to have no next statement, so Manager Wu felt depressed.
After waiting for a few breaths, General Manager Wu finally couldn't help but speak, "Young Master Chu... Look... Well... your ten thousand-year-old snow ginseng..."
Chu Yun was also a smart person and immediately understood what Manager Wu meant. It seemed that the other party was worried.
Manager Wu looked at the change in Chu Yun's expression, fearing that the other party would be unhappy at all, and immediately said: "Sorry, Mr. Chu, this is also the rule of our auction house. Any items to be auctioned must be placed in the auction house first and can only be auctioned publicly after being identified by a special person. So..."
Chu Yun said, "It's okay, I can understand! Yu'er, give the things to General Manager Wu."
"Yes! Young Master!" Yu'er said respectfully, then took off a bag on her shoulder and opened it quickly.
There is nothing else in the bag, only a sandalwood box.
Chu Yun picked up the box casually and handed it to General Manager Wu, saying, "General Manager Wu, the thing is inside, look."
Manager Wu almost spit out an old blood. Is this a thousand-year-old snow ginseng? Why does it feel like a thousand-year-old mountain ginseng? Even if you treat a thousand-year-old mountain ginseng, you are not so casual.
If people in the world knew that someone had just made a cloth bag and ran around with Wannen Snow Ginseng on their backs, they would definitely be drowned by the spits.
However, after all, the things belong to Chu Yun, so Mr. Wu couldn't say anything. Even if the other party was holding a bare ten thousand-year-old snow ginseng with his bare hands, no one would say anything.
Of course, no one said it, but someone definitely robbed it.
Seeing a thousand-year-old snow swaying across the market, it would be a fool who would not grab it.
Manager Wu quickly suppressed the messy thoughts in his heart and then took the wooden box.
He opened a gap in the wooden box, looked at it for a moment, and a fresh breath floated out of the gap, making people shocked.
Manager Wu was not familiar with this aura, but he could feel that the internal energy in his body became much more active at this moment. He was sure that even if it was not the ten thousand-year-old snow ginseng, it would definitely be other rare treasures in the world.
However, this matter is of great importance, so General Manager Wu did not dare to take it lightly. He immediately called someone over and asked him to invite an appraiser in the auction house.
It is said that it is a major issue in identification. In fact, it is an alchemist, and a level 7 alchemist. However, only Mr. Wu knew about the identity of this alchemist. Otherwise, if outsiders knew that there was a level 7 alchemist in the Shuntian Auction House, countless people would have come to ask for alchemist.
The alchemist came out soon. He just sniffed it gently, then checked it and confirmed that it was a snow ginseng that had been 10,000 years old. Although it was just the most common among the snow ginseng in ten thousand years, even if it was ordinary, it was a rare treasure in heaven and earth.
If General Manager Wu had any doubts about Chu Yun before, then he would be completely relieved at this moment.
The only thing that confused him was how Chu Yun got this ten thousand-year-old snow ginseng.
But this is not what he should ask as a businessman, so he had to bury this question in his heart.
At the same time, General Manager Wu also confirmed something. Chu Yun had definitely planned to come to Shuntian Auction this time. Maybe the other party had known that there was a golden grass in Shuntian Auction.
Otherwise, who would have brought Wannian Xue to the market?
If Chu Yun knew what Manager Wu thought, he would definitely despise him.
Is Ten Thousand Years of Snow Ginseng very precious? There are dozens of them on the back of the golden eagle, and there are many better than ten Thousand Years of Snow Ginseng. I even ate even 60,000 years of Snow Ginseng.
As for whether he had a premeditation this time, Chu Yun actually didn't think so much about it. But he guessed one thing correctly. Chu Yun had the idea of using Wannian Snow Ginseng for Jinyang Grass from the beginning, but that was the last resort. If he could buy it with gold and silver, it would naturally be the most perfect.
