The fourth watch of the Treasure Pavilion, waiting for the next shift to go out, first shift

  The night was dimly lit, but the city of Hanshui was brightly lit, with people's voices booming and a throng of people surging through the streets.

  Li Ke left Tongfu Inn, mounted the Qingtie horse, and strolled through the streets of Hanshui City. Because tomorrow was the monthly auction at the Eight Directions Pavilion in Hanshui City, tonight was more lively than usual. The disciples of the four major sects, the young masters of various families, walked in groups of three or five, forming teams as they went.

  "Sugar man, sugar man, just one copper coin for a string!"

  "Thin skin and plenty of meat, beautiful and cheap!"

  "Gentlemen, come on in! Today, the top courtesan of Cuixiang Pavilion invites young masters from various families to a musical performance!"

  On the street, all kinds of hawkers' cries are endless, and at the corner, the red building with crimson and green is even more flourishing, with birds chirping and flowers blooming, very lively.

  "How carefree in the mortal world!"

  Li Ke couldn't help but feel a sense of nostalgia, after two years of diligent practice in the Double Blade Sect, he had long forgotten about the secular world. Now, looking at everything before him, it was as if he had returned to his childhood days.

  Painfully loving his own father, taking care of his own brother, and having a younger sister who always wore two braids, now should be slender and elegant, bringing disaster to the country and harming the people.

  "Qingfeng Building!"

  "Qīnguì zhāi!" -> "The Arsenal!"

  Heavenly Craftsman's Manor!

  ……

  Strolling around on the street for a few rounds, passing by several shops, but they were all small shops, so Li Ke didn't go in either.

  In the city of Hanshui, many warriors choose to sell their own goods. They lay out a beast skin on the ground and place some raw ore, metallic beast cores, and low-grade spiritual herbs on it.

  Li Ke walked through several stalls and didn't find anything good, after turning a few more rounds, he saw a seven-story high-rise store with a loud name called Ju Bao Ge.

  The three words "Jubao Pavilion" alone reveal how generous the owner of the store is, which means gathering all treasures.

  Li Ke didn't think twice and directly led the Qingtie Junma towards the Jubaoge.

  "Sir! Do you have any inner elixirs or spiritual herbs? We, the Treasure Pavilion, can purchase them all!" As soon as they arrived at the entrance of the Treasure Pavilion, a young servant in green clothes eagerly came forward, took the reins of the cyan iron horse from Li Ke's hand, and said with a smile.

  A seven-story wooden building, the three characters "Ju Bao Ge" were written in iron and silver hooks, with a majestic aura, hanging above the main gate. Li Ke looked at these three characters, patted the saddle bag on his horse, smiled at the young servant in green clothes, and walked in.

  The young servant in green saw Li Ke's bulging backpack and was shocked, thinking to himself: "No way! Is this huge backpack full of Inner Elixir Spirit Grass for sale? Heaven...this can't be true!"

  The young servant in green was so startled that he hastily handed the reins of the Qingtie horse to another person and walked into the Treasure Pavilion to greet Li Ke.

  Li Ke walked into Jibao Hall with a bulging backpack and was slightly stunned.

  A large hall that can accommodate dozens of people, spacious and bright, with a total of seven counters. The copper-colored counters are all made of precious paulownia wood. Behind the seven counters, there are more than a dozen red-clad young servants in attendance.

  Among them, there were three counters with soldiers selling items. Li Ke scanned them at a glance and found that they were all internal elixirs and iron bones of some low-level metal beasts.

  "Welcome, sir! This way, please!"

  Behind Li Ke, a young servant in green clothes came forward and led him to one of the seven counters that was empty.

  "Old Seventh, we have guests!"

  A young man in a blue robe made eyes at a young man in a red robe behind the counter.

  The young man in red attire was slightly stunned, took a glance at Li Ke, and found that although Li Ke was very young, the air between his eyebrows was extraordinary. In their line of work, the path of martial arts had already been set, but in terms of interpersonal relationships, he was extremely smooth.

  The young man in red clothes smiled and said to Li Ke: "Welcome, sir, to the Treasure Pavilion! Our pavilion is fair to all, with absolutely reasonable prices! What do you have for sale?"

  Li Ke smiled and said seriously to the little servant in red: "Can you find a place with fewer people?"

  The red-clad servant was startled in his heart, and the green-clad servant behind Li Ke also followed with a big shock. Although he sensed that the things Li Ke brought were definitely not cheap, he still didn't expect them to be worth trading separately.

  At this point, the young man in green and the young man in red exchanged a glance, both of them were excited beyond words. The higher the transaction amount, the more commission they would get from it.

  Li Kegang wanted a private room, which shows that this deal is not small, at least tens of thousands!

  "Alright! Alright! No problem!"

  The man in red clothes also seemed to have seen big scenes, and said repeatedly, immediately got up, opened the counter, walked out, and took Li Ke towards the stairs.

  "Sir, you've come to the right place at Jubaoge. Our reputation is excellent and our word of mouth is one of the best in Hanshui City. This transaction will definitely not disappoint you!"

  Hongyi Xiaorong welcomed Li Ke and walked towards the second floor of the Treasure Pavilion.

  "I hope so!"

  Li Ke smiled faintly and didn't take these words to heart. On the Divine Land, many things had stable prices and wouldn't fluctuate greatly, so there was no such thing as being cheated!

  The second floor of the Treasure Pavilion was a series of separate private rooms, obviously prepared for clients with big business. The red-clad servant led Li Ke into one of the rooms.

  The private room is not large, but it has everything one needs, including tea ceremony, books, chess, calligraphy and painting.

  "Please take a seat, sir!"

  The young man in red led Li Ke to sit at the long table in the private room, sat down beside him, and looked at Li Ke with hopeful eyes.

  Li Ke could see that the private room was very quiet, and there was a faint fragrance. He smiled, picked up the bag he was carrying, and poured it onto the long table. Suddenly, the sound of "clanging" filled the air as countless iron pellets and spiritual bones spilled out, hitting the table with a crisp sound.

  Innumerable things were piled together, just like a small mountain had been pushed up. The sight left the little servant in red clothes with his eyes wide open and his mouth agape, unable to utter a word.

  On the long table, red iron dan iron bone, purple iron dan iron bone, black iron dan iron teeth, blue iron dan iron bone... colorful and dazzling, there are also a few spiritual grasses placed aside, shining with faint spiritual light, clearly displaying its rank.

  "This...this..." The little red-clad servant was completely tongue-tied, his mouth agape and his words incoherent, as if he didn't dare believe his own eyes, rubbing them vigorously.

  "This is the Iron Dan of the high-ranking metal beast, Tieyao Lang! This is the Iron Bone of the Black Iron Spider! And this...this...are all the Iron Dans of the high-ranking metal beasts, heavens! So many! You've emptied out the entire Hanshui Mountains!" The red-clothed young man rubbed his eyes and saw that the long table was still filled with a dazzling array of colors. He couldn't help but pick up a few things, and immediately lost his voice. His gaze turned to Li Ke, also filled with shock.

  Li Ke smiled lightly and said: "Please help keep it a secret!"

  Li Ke didn't explain where so many high-grade iron pellets came from, nor did he say much. However, he didn't want the Treasure Pavilion to spread the word about this matter. Although he wasn't afraid of trouble, he didn't want to look for it himself.

  "Alright!"

  The red-clothed young man replied in a series of voices, saying that the Treasure Pavilion itself has rules for keeping customer secrets. As long as the customer is unwilling to reveal them, the Treasure Pavilion can ask nothing and say nothing. This is also one of the reasons why the Treasure Pavilion has become so big and successful, completely keeping customer confidentiality.

  Such a big deal was in front of him, and the little red servant naturally wouldn't let it go. However, after estimating it, he found that the prices of all the items on the long table were not something that a small servant like him could decide on. He quickly said to Li Ke: "Sir, I'm sorry! Your goods are too valuable, and as a small servant, I am not qualified to make decisions. Please wait a moment, I'll go ask our boss to come over!"

  P.S: Honestly, I don't have any drafts left, during the 51 holiday, not a single word was written, it's true! Please collect~!
