    "That's nothing!" The older man took a sip of the Baihua Zui that the waiter had just served, tasted the taste carefully, and said proudly: "The last auction also sold a weapon training secret book. I heard that  It is a relic of a master of weapon training, and it sold for a sky-high price of 160,000 taels of gold!" Like an alchemy master, the skills of a weapon training master are not passed down to others, so this weapon training secret book is even more precious.  Not only are martial artists who are interested in learning to practice weapons interested in this, but some weapon trainers are also determined to obtain it and hope to learn from it, so they will pay a higher price than the second-level martial arts.  "I heard that Tiandilou offended the Weapon Refining Alliance because of the auction of the Weapon Training Secrets. Later, the big boss of Tiandilou personally sent 100,000 taels of gold to the Weapon Training Alliance. However, Tiandilou also got into trouble because of this.  The name has attracted the attention of several surrounding countries, and they all sent people to participate in this auction, hoping to get good things!" The younger middle-aged man was not to be outdone, and also poured a cup of Baihua Zusisi!  Appreciating it, he even half-closed his eyes, recalling the comfort that Baihuazui brought him.  "Little brother, listen to the big brother's advice. If you want to buy something, you don't have to attend the auction of Tiandilou. The things there are ridiculously expensive! And I heard that Tiandilou got a secret book of alchemy training from somewhere this time, and it has already made a fuss.  There has been an uproar, and the Alchemist Alliance has also sent people to Daqi. If Tiandilou really offends the Alchemist Alliance, they will have a hard time in the future, and they might even start fighting. I don¡¯t think the little brother can be punished for his crime.  Take the risk" the older man advised.  But he didn't know that it was because of these few words that Xia Yuan was determined to participate in the auction!  Xia Yuan is determined to get the secret book of alchemy!  "Thank you for your concern, brother! But I came from the small town to Daqi Imperial City just to see the world. We should stay away from those who are fighting and killing, but of course we have to watch if there is any excitement! Brother, I don't know if there are any restrictions on this auction.  ?¡± Hearing Xia Yuan¡¯s explanation, the older man sighed and said, ¡°Little brother, I thought I was like you back then, not willing to waste my life holding on to my family¡¯s fortune while traveling for more than ten years.  , After losing everything, why don¡¯t you come back here? It¡¯s good to go out and see the world, but you have to do what you can, and be careful!¡± ¡°Brother, I understand!¡± Xia Yuan didn¡¯t expect it to happen in the tavern.  I met such a kind-hearted person, but he was very itchy about the secret book of alchemy and wished he could get it today.  Xia Yuan believes that with Tianhe's help, he can become an alchemy master!  "Participating in the Tiandilou auction is also simple. You only need to provide Tiandilou with a deposit of one thousand taels of gold to enter. When the auction ends, if an item is auctioned, it will be deducted from the one thousand taels of gold. If nothing is auctioned, only  60% will be returned!¡±  .  But there are not many people who can spare four hundred taels of gold to watch the excitement.  "Thanks for the advice, brother! Please take it easy, brother. I'll go to the Tiandi Building first!" After Xia Yuan finished speaking, he called the waiter, served a pot of Baihua Zui, paid the bill, left the restaurant alone, and rushed to Tiandi.  building.  Tiandi Tower is located in the inner city of Daqi City. After paying the city entry fee again, Xia Yuan walked into the inner city.  This place is obviously more peaceful and noble than the outer city.  Various luxury carriages come and go frequently on the street, and even pedestrians are all wearing gold and silver. It can be seen that most of the people living in the inner city are rich people.  Xia Yuan inquired and finally found the Tiandi Tower.  Tiandilou is indeed the largest trading house in Daqi. Xia Yuan is amazed by the Tiandilou headquarters alone.  Not only is this place luxuriously decorated, but the three characters "Heaven and Earth Tower" on the five-meter-high plaque in front of the door are actually made of pure gold. I am afraid it costs thousands of taels of gold, which is enough for a small tribe of 10,000 people to live for a hundred years!  The Tiandi Building headquarters is more than fifty meters high, and it is second to none in the entire inner city, second only to the Imperial Palace in the Imperial City. It seems that the two people just said that the Tiandi Building is run by the royal family, it must be true, otherwise they would not dare to build it like this.  So magnificent.  Xia Yuan approached the Tiandi Tower on foot, only to find that the Tiandi Tower was actually made of a rock he had never seen before, exuding a metallic luster.  The top is equally brilliant and covered with various patterns.  It seems that this Tiandi Building is not only the headquarters of the trading company, but also a war fortress. Such a fortress, even the immortals may not be able to conquer it in a short time!  Xia Yuan walked into the gate of Tiandi Building and was immediately greeted by a young man wearing a blue shirt.  Xia Yuan was still wearing his ordinary green robe at this time. Unexpectedly, the visitor didn't care at all, and said respectfully: "I wonder what your distinguished guest does?" It seems that it is not a fluke that Tiandilou has become the largest trading house in Daqi.  , has his own way of doing business.  "I want to participate in the auction three days later, but I don't know how to go through the relevant procedures?" "Please come to the front desk and pay a thousand taels of gold, and you can naturally participate!"?The young man's eyes were full of enthusiasm, showing no hint of impatience or contempt.  "Okay!" Xia Yuan followed the waiter to the front desk, took out a gold ticket worth one thousand taels of gold and handed it over.  After the clerk at the front desk checked the authenticity, he took out a token and a package and handed them to Xia Yuan, saying: "The distinguished guest can participate in the auction with this token three days later. You must wear the gown in the package before entering.  Put on the mask!" Xia Yuan took the token and saw that there was only one number written on it, 5,671. It seemed that more than 5,000 people had signed up.  At the same time, Xia Yuan nodded secretly in his heart. Tiandilou had indeed thought carefully. Everyone wore the same clothes and masks, so no one could recognize anyone else, so they were not afraid of retaliation for offending people they shouldn't have offended.  And in this case, Tiandilou can also encourage the people participating in the auction to the greatest extent and obtain the greatest benefits. At that time, everyone will rely on the gold and silver in their hands to avoid anyone using their power to overwhelm others!  Xia Yuan left the Tiandi Building, returned to the inn, and practiced quietly for two days. Until early on the third day, at dawn, Xia Yuan packed his bags, settled the rent, and left the inn.  Xia Yuan participated in the auction this time and was determined to get the secret book of alchemy. Last year, a secret book of weapon training sold for a sky-high price of more than 100,000 gold. This year, the reputation of Tiandi Tower has spread far and wide, and foreign warriors are participating, so the secret book of alchemy training is inevitable.  It will also be sold at a sky-high price.  Xia Yuan didn't want to be recognized and get into trouble.  After leaving the inn, Xia Yuan entered the inner city, found a sheltered place, changed into the robes issued by Tiandi Tower, and walked slowly towards Tiandi Tower.  The closer he got to the Tiandi Tower, the more people Xia Yuan found wearing the same robes as himself. Approaching the Tiandi Tower, Xia Yuan saw five long lines lined up in front of the door, waiting for the clerks to verify the tokens one by one.  , to enter the Tiandi Tower.
