Chapter Fourteen: [The popularity of beauty pills and 70,000 gold coins]
twenty three
Lin Tao pretended to smile calmly. As for the impact, the incident at the cocktail party was completely negligible to him. He was not fragile enough to be hit by such a small thing. Maybe it was for his own dreams, or maybe it was for his own dreams.
It was this environment that forced him to do this. I have to say that he has indeed changed a lot. He has been a person in two lives but has two outlooks on life. Looking back at the old man across the dining table, Lin Tao told himself in his heart, maybe all this is for the sake of the present.
This old man who is approaching dusk does not want to see his helpless look again.
"If the Lin family continues like this, sooner or later they will disappear and be expelled." Lin Tao said loudly.
Each word seemed to knock hard into Lin Fangtian's heart. His expression was very painful, and the right hand holding the wine glass shook violently, and he almost lost his grip on the wine glass, and the wine in the glass staggered and spilled out.
He took a nervous sip of wine to stabilize his emotions a little. After a while, Lin Fangtian sighed leisurely, with an indescribably rich expression. It was an expression of helplessness, unwillingness, but helplessness. "Yes.
Ah, my father's wish is for the Lin family to flourish in the hands of his descendants, to truly become famous in the empire, and to become an orthodox nobleman, so that the descendants of the Lin family will have the blood of the nobles flowing in their bodies, instead of like now."
At this moment, Lin Tao knew that the man in front of him must have some secret, or a painful past. Maybe he was not like this originally, and he only fell and gave up after receiving some kind of blow. Lin Tao told himself in his heart, because of a walking corpse
You won't have such a look in your eyes.
"No matter how unfair and cruel God is to us, those are just external factors, but we should never abandon or give up. There is a saying that goes, man can conquer nature." As he said that, Lin Tao stood up,
Walked out slowly.
Lin Fangtian's cloudy eyes suddenly burst into intense light, like the bright moon that had parted the dark clouds. His dry lips slowly read out four words: "Man can conquer nature."
When Lin Tao returned to the room, he thought of Lin Fangtian's eyes again. He wanted to know what happened to his cheap father. He shook his head to get rid of the distracting thoughts in his heart. Lin Tao closed his legs and felt at ease.
Practice the "Qingyang Sutra".
Early the next morning, when the sky outside the window was just a little brighter, Lin Tao got up and did a set of boxing in the house, and then started practicing for the day.
After having a dry breakfast, I tidied up a little and then went out.
Today was the day that Lin Tao and Luoken Auction House agreed to withdraw the money, so naturally he could not delay. Moreover, he was very curious in his heart as to what price the six beauty pills were sold for.
When he came to Luoken Auction House again, Lin Tao did not forget to put on his silver mask. From then on, he decided to use a new identity, Xuanying. In this way, it would be much easier to do things, and no one else would think of this.
The mysterious silver masked man turned out to be Lin Tao.
After all, Lin Tao himself is a second-generation ancestor who only knows how to eat, drink, whore and gamble. Perhaps he is not even a second-generation ancestor, just a moth. But suddenly, earth-shaking changes have taken place, and even such a magical elixir is no longer available.
Being able to refine it will inevitably make people think of something. People are afraid of being famous, and pigs are afraid of being strong. This eternal truth must not be wrong.
As soon as he stepped into the door of Luoken Auction House, a middle-aged man in blue came over to greet him. With an energetic look on his face and the joy left over from the excitement, he said happily: "You are here."
As if he could see that the middle-aged man in blue was embarrassed that he couldn't pronounce his name, Lin Tao smiled and said, "Call me Xuanying."
The middle-aged man in blue looked up at the young man in front of him in surprise. Although he didn't know how to address him originally, he was afraid that Lin Tao would not want to answer, so he hesitated and did not ask his name. After all, he was wearing a silver
Wearing a mask makes people feel like they want to keep their identity secret. But the mysterious man in front of them actually told him his name. Although it was 100% a fake name, it had to be said that the two of them seemed to have made a good start. Lan Yi
The middle-aged man's joy was beyond words, which showed that Lin Tao was also very satisfied with him, and he would not have to worry about future transactions with a little effort. "Just call me Kane."
"Kane, how was the situation last night?" Lin Tao asked straight to the point.
"Very good. As expected, Mr. Edward and I expected the auction of your beauty elixirs to be extremely good. It is no exaggeration to say that it caused a storm last night, and I believe it will take less than two days.
This storm will blow through the entire upper class society of Fanmeer City, even the entire Slang Empire and even the Izumo Continent."
Although the other party's words were exaggerated, Lin Tao was very satisfied, at least the results looked good.
"Master Xuanying, please come here. Mr. Edward knew that you would come today, so he came early in the morning to wait for you." Kane smiled and walked in front, leading Lin Tao into Edward's room.
As soon as he saw Lin Tao arriving, Edward immediately stood up from his chair and greeted him happily. He was not at all casual and lazy like when they first met. "Congratulations, sir. You have made a lot of money this time."
"How much is a big sum of money?" Lin Tao asked with a smile.
Edward smiled mysteriously, "Let Kane answer this for you. I guarantee you will be surprised after hearing it."
"It's like this, Mr. Xuanying. After you left last time, we reported the miraculous effects of the beauty pill to our young lady. After seeing the maid's miraculous change, the lady also decided to sell the beauty pill vigorously at the auction.
Propaganda. As we expected, the ladies and ladies of Fanmeer City became very interested after hearing about the miraculous effects of the beauty pill and seeing the changes in the maid's appearance. Of course, this
We can't expect them to pay a huge price to buy it if they are interested. So we took out one of them and found someone to test it again." At this point, Kane smiled proudly, "When those noble ladies and ladies looked at it,
After seeing the amazing effects of the beauty pills, they immediately went crazy and rushed to buy each pill. They sold each pill to a very scary price. If there were only five pills left in the end, I think you would earn only
I'm afraid there will be more. Even so, it was sold for a terrifying price of 70,000 gold coins. After all, this is a one-time item, and the price sold at this price is already too high."
Edward nodded, "If I'm not wrong, it only takes two days for the miraculous effects of the beauty pill to spread throughout the upper class society in Fanmere City. Those ladies and ladies will flock to them and ask for them."
Men buy them for them. In this way, at the next auction we only need to auction a few two or three, and the price will reach the height of this time, or even worse." There was no trace of it on Edward's face at this moment.
A little old, but only excited. No wonder, he will make a lot of money this time.
Although he knew in advance that the beauty pills would be very popular, Lin Tao did not expect that just five pills could be sold for 70,000 gold coins. Seeing this world, the status of women is still quite high, and their men are willing to pay 70,000 gold coins for them.
What is the concept? The average worker's salary for a month's hard work is only five gold coins. Seventy thousand gold coins are enough for a thousand families to live comfortably for a year, and even have a surplus.
Smacking his tongue slightly, Lin Tao couldn't help feeling that no matter which world he was in, wealth would always be in the hands of a few people. This was an unchanging rule.
Lin Tao is also quite satisfied with the excellent publicity and auction capabilities of Luoken Auction House. The most authoritative auction house in the human world on the continent is indeed well-deserved.
"Mr. Xuanying, according to the regulations of our auction house, we will take 5% of the 70,000 gold coins as the auction fee. At the same time, you also need to pay tax. The remaining part is that you can go to
Money." Kane said.
"Sixty-three thousand gold coins, this is not a small amount. Haha." Lin Tao said with a happy smile.
Kane and Edward on the side were smiling, but they were making plans for the next auction. "In view of the extraordinary success of this auction, I think sir, you should refine a few beauty pills immediately to take advantage of this trend.
If you do, you can definitely make a lot of money again."
Lin Tao expected what the other party said. To be honest, the proposal was very tempting, and Lin Tao had no way to refuse it. But for him, 70,000 gold coins were enough for the Lin family to live a luxurious life for a while, so he was not in a hurry.
"I'm sorry, your suggestion is indeed very tempting, but I have to reject it. As for the reason, you don't need to ask anymore. In short, I also have my own difficulties."
"This" Kane and Edward looked at each other in surprise, and both could read the surprise and helplessness in each other's eyes. What was surprising was that they did not expect Lin Tao to stop under such circumstances. This was equivalent to picking up money for nothing.
No; unfortunately, they may not have the chance to make another serious transfer. It would be a pity to miss such an easy opportunity to make money. But thinking about it, I can feel relieved. Last time, they all guessed what was going on in front of them.
Could the mysterious man be a child of an ancient, mysterious and powerful family? He had to take risks and sell beauty pills because of lack of money. Now that the other party has decided, they have confirmed their previous conjecture. Although they are not in the family,
However, the two of them have heard a little bit about the family rules in those powerful families, which are extremely strict. It is reasonable for the other party to stop after making enough money. Therefore, although the two of them feel regretful
, but there was no good way to persuade him at the moment.
"Okay, since Mr. Xuanying has made your decision, we won't force it anymore. We just hope that there will be opportunities for cooperation in the future. I will go and get the income you deserve this time. You
Wait a moment." He said and walked out of the room to get money.
