After Long Aiyu bought a gift for Long Fuying, he wandered around for a day before going back to the inn to rest. Tomorrow is the Yibao Conference. He should have a good rest before going to Yibao Pavilion to see the world!
Yibao Pavilion is a place built by the Gongsun family specifically to hold the Yibao Conference. It is usually closed and only open for a few days during the Yibao Conference every three years.
However, the threshold for entering Yibao Pavilion is extremely high. Anyone who wants to enter must pay a gate fee of one thousand taels of silver. As for family power or individuals who want to occupy a place to display goods, the price will be even more expensive!
After resting for a night, Long Aiyu went to Yibao Pavilion early the next morning. Although Long Aiyu got up very early, when he came to the door of Yibao Pavilion, he realized that he had woken up very late.
!Yibao Pavilion has not opened the door yet, but there are already more than a hundred people standing outside the door. These people are ordinary warriors. They have the strength of the top ten families and have already entered Yibao Pavilion yesterday and occupied the area belonging to Yibao Pavilion.
A place of your own!
Long Aiyu looked at the crowd in front of him and had a headache. Why did Yibao Pavilion look like a vegetable market? This shouldn't be the case? The Gongsun family couldn't possibly be so incompetent?
The moment everyone had been waiting for finally arrived. When the door of Yibao Pavilion opened, everyone present fell silent, and an old man walked out!
"My Excellency Gongsun Zan, all previous Yibao Conferences have been hosted by me. I have kept you all waiting for a long time! Although everyone knows the rules, I still tell you the clichés again!" Gongsun Zan said slowly and loudly.
Although some people in the crowd were very annoyed after hearing this, no one showed it. The Gongsun family was not someone to be trifled with. The old man in front of them was a strong man in the military level.
"Everyone, you must abide by the order when entering Yibao Pavilion. Fighting and noise are prohibited in Yibao Pavilion. The admission fee is one thousand taels of silver..." Gongsun Zan said a lot and finally waved his hand: "This Yibao Conference has officially begun.
! I hope everyone can return home with a full load!" Everyone clapped and thought: The old guy has finally finished speaking!
After Gongsun Zan opened the door, everyone entered Yibao Pavilion in an orderly manner. When Long Aiyu entered the door and saw the space and decoration inside, he had to sigh at the wealth of the Gongsun family!
The internal structure of Yibao Pavilion is very simple. The interior is a hollow spiral structure, similar to the interior of a pagoda, except that the space area is countless times larger. The pavilion is divided into three layers of space, which also decrease from bottom to top, just like a pyramid.
The first floor is the largest hall. People who come in see countless neatly arranged stalls. People have already placed various things there waiting for interested people to come and view them.
The second floor is made up of countless rooms connected to form a huge circle surrounding Yibao Pavilion. Most of the merchants on the second floor are powerful families or sects who are lucky enough to rent a small room as their own after paying a certain price.
The store for this transaction!
The third floor is composed of ten huge private rooms. These ten large private rooms are occupied by nine major families and the Song family. Others are not eligible to rent them. As for the Gongsun family, although they are the organizers, they do not set up stalls. The Gongsun family is interested in
Things will be bought directly, and if the Gongsun family has something to sell, they will hold an auction at the end of the Yibao Fair!
There is a huge reception hall on the fourth floor, which is a special place for the Gongsun family to entertain the representatives of the ten major families who came to attend the Yibao Conference. Sitting on the fourth floor, you can have an overview of the entire Yibao Conference, so there are many representatives of the ten major families.
Will stay in the recruitment hall. Some families have business dealings with each other. Representatives of several major families chatting together can determine the economic trend for a period of time. As for the three stores, only one person in charge can be left to manage them. Unless
Only when big problems arise will family representatives take action.
Long Aiyu followed the flow of people and wandered around on the first floor, looking at the strange and weird things. Long Aiyu was not interested in anything. Although he was on the first floor, his eyes had already drifted to the third floor.
On the third floor, Long Aiyu had been observing the positions of the Nangong family and the Ye family on the third floor. After wandering around for half an hour, Long Aiyu finally decided to go upstairs and take a look.
Long Aiyu came to the stairwell and followed the flow of people up to the second floor. There were fewer people in the second category than on the first floor, but there were more things here. Just because the things here are quite valuable, the prices will be higher, naturally.
There are fewer people visiting. Although there are fewer people than on the first floor, the overall flow of people is still very large.
Long Aiyu didn't like this lively scene and ran directly to the stairs leading to the third floor. When Long Aiyu came to the stairs and wanted to go upstairs, he was stopped by someone.
"Sir, could you please show me the evidence for going upstairs?" A respectful waiter stopped Long Aiyu and asked politely.
"What basis?" Long Aiyu was confused. He didn't listen at all to what Gongsun Zan said just now. Of course, he didn't know that there was still a basis for going up to the third floor.
The people around also saw Long Aiyu's behavior. Everyone gloated at Long Aiyu's embarrassing appearance. Some people even directly sarcastically said: "A poor boy actually wants to see the treasures of the top ten families. He really doesn't know how high the sky is!"
.
The envoy's attitude did not change when he arrived and he still explained respectfully: "Young master, the third floor is filled with the goods of the ten major families. The goods inside are all priced but not marketable. In order to save everyone's time, I want to
People who go up to the third floor to visit must show financial proof, the minimum limit is one hundred thousand taels, or they can bring out valuable treasures to get the qualification to go upstairs!"
"So that's it! Do you think this knife of mine is a treasure?" Long Aiyu suddenly realized it and handed the Yin Yang Knife to the waiter and said.
"You bumpkin, you don't want to get away with a broken knife, do you?" More and more people around said this sarcastic thing.
"That's right, everything from the ten major families is hard to find. I really don't know what a child is doing here?" These people simply don't believe that Long Aiyu can prove it through finance. One hundred thousand taels of white rock is even the wealth of a spiritual warrior.
It may not be at this price!
"Sir, can you (5) wait a moment? This knife should be very valuable, but please forgive me for not being able to see its specific value. I will ask the steward to come over and appraise it for you personally!" The waiter took the Yin Yang knife and examined it carefully.
After checking it, he returned the knife to Long Aiyu and said this.
The waiter's words were like a silent slap on the face of the person who had just made the taunt. What made these people even more speechless was Long Aiyu's answer!
Long Aiyu frowned when he heard the waiter's answer, and said calmly: "No need to go to so much trouble, I originally wanted to save some time. Look, the banknotes are all here, you can make hundreds of thousands of them yourself!", Long Aiyu
Ai Yu reluctantly took out a pile of banknotes and stuffed them into the waiter's hand!
Long Aiyu's action slapped those powerful people in the face loudly. Some of the people around him immediately turned around and left to go shopping on their own, while others looked at Long Aiyu greedily.
Long Aiyu also knows that wealth should not be exposed, but he doesn't care about these people. The most powerful ones are only talented warriors. If he really dares to think wrong about himself, he will be a sacrifice to the Yin Yang Knife!
