I'm forced to take over the world

Chapter 1425 Hou Qingcheng

On the stage, Old Man Ye was holding the jade box with both hands, and the jade box exuded a chill.

He secretly used his strength to isolate the icy cold, opened the lid, and revealed a section of black stuff inside.

This thing looks like dry bark, the surface is covered with dense folds, but the whole body is as black as ink.

As soon as the lid of the box was opened, a quiet and faint fragrance gushed out, with a cold aura in it.Gently sniffing, there is a chill in the heart, making people sober.

This object is the Nine Nether Wood, which is extremely rare from the land of cold and underworld.

Within a few seconds, Old Man Ye closed the cover immediately.

Jiuyoumu should not be exposed to the air for too long, otherwise the potency of the medicine will be lost quickly, which will be greatly reduced.

In addition, Jiuyou wood is also extremely difficult to store, and a jade box used for storage needs to be close to a high-grade spiritual source stone.

To sum up the above two points, this is also the reason why Tianhe Chamber of Commerce no longer sells this item.

Do not make money!
Old man Ye put down the jade box, and his cold hands gradually warmed up.

He smiled and said loudly: "This is the last piece of Jiuyou Wood from Tianhe Chamber of Commerce. All distinguished guests in need, don't miss this opportunity."

"The starting price of this Nine Nether Wood is three high-grade spiritual origin stones, and each price increase must not be less than one high-grade spiritual origin stone."

Old man Ye scanned the audience with a smile, carefully observing the expressions of every guest.

Although this price is indeed expensive, as the last share of the Tianhe Chamber of Commerce, he believes that the final price can be multiplied several times.

Sure enough, as soon as the words fell, many people wanted to ask for the price eagerly.

"Four high-grade spirit source stones."

Familiar voices suddenly sounded from the corner, and those who wanted to bid were silent one by one, and turned their heads to look in amazement.

Old man Ye's smile froze a little, and he looked at the young man in the corner, feeling a bad premonition in his heart.

"You all watch what I do, you can bid as much as you want."

Lu Li said with a smile.

At the end, he added lightly: "Of course, if you want to bid, you don't need to care about my feelings."

There was a thud in everyone's heart, as if their hearts had sunk to the bottom of the valley. Those who wanted to bid silently withdrew their hands, pretending that they had nothing to do with me.

"Old man Ye, don't be in a daze!"

Looking at Old Man Ye who was in a daze on the stage, Lu Li immediately urged.

Old man Ye pleaded guilty, put on a kindly professional smirk, and said, "This young master bid for four high-grade spiritual origin stones, but is there anyone else who bid?"

The audience was silent, and many people's eyelids trembled, but they finally reluctantly gave up.

After a while, still no one made a sound. Under Lu Li's urging gaze, Old Man Ye finally made a final decision.

"Then the Jiuyou Wood belongs to the young master who paid a high price."

When he said the word "high price", Old Man Ye's voice trembled, and his heart was extremely bitter.

Just now he was delighted by the price of Spirit Transformation Essence, but now Jiuyoumu is disappointed.

After waving her hand, the waitress brought the next lot and handed it to Old Man Ye respectfully.

When old man Ye got the lot, his heart trembled, and he glanced at Lu Li in the corner without leaving a trace. Seeing the excitement on his face, he became numb for a moment.

This time, it's going to be a big loss!

Old man Ye complained incessantly.

Fortunately, Lu Li didn't participate in all of the next ten auctions. Even if there were some that he was quite interested in, there were one or two who dared to bid with him.

After the final price was raised, he gave up.

In a strange atmosphere, the auction finally ended.

The guests came out in a single file, and many of them stood there with hesitation on their faces, and kept casting cryptic glances at Lu Li.As for Xue Ping and Young Master Wu, they had already slipped away in the crowd.

Not seeing Xue Ping's figure, Boss Douhua's little heart that has been hanging has finally settled down.

Before leaving, the mysterious person from the Dansheng Pavilion also nodded to Lu Li, and then walked away with steady steps.

Just as Lu Li was about to leave, he saw a rather handsome middle-aged man striding towards him. He cupped his fists respectfully and said with a smile:
"Young master, I am Hou Qingcheng, the head of the Hou family in the south of the city. I have booked a private room in the Changle Courtyard. Can you do me a favor and go with me?"

"Changleyuan!"

As soon as Boss Douhua heard this name, he suddenly felt bad.

Lu Li subconsciously wanted to refuse, but suddenly thought of Boss Douhua's proposal just now, and his mind moved.

"Find a big family, and the boss can be regarded as a backer."

Seeing that Hou Qingcheng came forward, the other people who wanted to make friends no longer hesitated, and immediately surrounded him, inviting Lu Li to go and have a talk.

After some comparison, Lu Li finally chose Hou Qingcheng.

One reason is that among these people, the Hou family is the most powerful.Although it is not as good as the Xue family, it is still a good second-rate force in Dansheng City.

Secondly, Hou Qingcheng had a good impression on Lu Li, he was a clear-cut person, and Lu Li felt relieved to hand over Douhua Boss to him.

After rejecting the others, Lu Li walked out of the auction house accompanied by Hou Qingcheng and the owner of Douhua.

Outside the door, Han Yi and Tang Xueyi, two people who don't like the excitement, are waiting on the railing.

"I'm going back to the academy first."

Han Yi said lightly, then turned and left, leaving behind a chic back.

Lu Li gave him a strange look, surprised that he actually confessed to himself before he left.

Smiling, Lu Li looked at Tang Xueyi again.

She lowered her head, with a coy gesture, hesitating to speak.

"Lu... Lu Li, go back to the academy, I have something for you."

After saying these words, Tang Xueyi's pretty face was instantly blushed, and before Lu Li could respond, she immediately fled away.

"This girl..."

Lu Li didn't know what Tang Xueyi was going to give him, so he shook his head helplessly. Under the guidance of the maid, he took away the Jiuyoumu, and then bought some things.

After leaving Tianhe Chamber of Commerce, Lu Li and Boss Douhua got into Hou Qingcheng's luxury car and drove towards Changle Courtyard.

Changle Courtyard is located in the east area of ​​Dansheng City, not close to Tianhe Chamber of Commerce.But Hou Qingcheng's strange animal pulling the cart ran so fast, it only took a stick of incense time for everyone.

Hou Qingcheng took the two of them up to the flower building with ease, entered a spacious private room, and invited five noble men.

Four Yingying and Yanyan played and sang on the sidelines, and a beautiful woman poured wine for everyone.

What made Lu Li sad and happy was that these five people didn't do anything out of the ordinary.

The owner of Douhua was as quiet as a chicken, and his heart was extremely sad, and the unbearable memories of a few days ago rolled back.

Hou Qingcheng picked up a glass of wine with a blushing face, and said with a smile: "Thank you, Mr. Lu, for your face. This cup is to respect Mr. Lu first!"

He had already asked Lu Li's name in the chariot just now, and Lu Li didn't hide it.

Lu Li raised his glass and drank it down.

Between the toasts and cups, Lu Li and Hou Qingcheng both blushed after drinking the mellow and strong wine.

Although both of them were monks, neither of them forced out the alcohol in their bodies, enjoying the drunkenness.

At this time, the owner of Douhua, who had been silent all this time, suddenly slapped the table angrily, looked at the frightened woman beside him, and shouted:

"Give me another glass of princely water!"
