Clan Immortal Cultivation: I Can See Hints-Chapter 728 - 467: The Auction Begins (Two in One, Seeking Subscriptions and Monthly Passes)_2

Lin Shiming breathed a sigh of relief at this, but remembered that the person in front of him was an old progenitor of the Lin Family, his Seventh Great-Uncle.

Having seen all sorts of turmoil, Yun Chengzi over there naturally couldn't fool Lin Xianzhi.

"Shiming, this auction is quite important, we need to consider carefully. Aside from the pure-blooded Wind Scaled Python juvenile, there is also the formula for the Fourth Rank Spiritual Wine Sturgeon Dragon Liquor, and the formula for the Fourth Rank Beast Nurturing Pills..."

Lin Xianzhi began to speak.

And hearing this, Lin Shiming also drew in a sharp breath.

He had initially thought it was just some Fourth Rank Magical Treasures, which weren't in high demand by the Lin Family.

But these three things, the Lin Family simply couldn't refuse.

Yet, these three things could also potentially expose matters of the Lin Family.

Nine Dragon Island is now in urgent need of knowing the exact location of that tree.

Sturgeon Dragon Liquor is a kind of Spiritual Wine mixed with sturgeon fish and half Flood Dragon blood, greatly nourishing the flesh.

The only drawback is that it consumes a fair amount of Flood Dragon blood.

And the Lin Family also needs the formula for the Fourth Rank Beast Nurturing Pills.

"Seventh Great-Uncle, in my opinion, if we need to buy, we must buy without hesitation!" Lin Shiming said with a serious expression, taking the initiative to speak.

They didn't care about other magical treasures and items, but they must buy the formula for the Sturgeon Dragon Liquor and the Fourth Rank Beast Nurturing Pills.

The Lin Family has many Spirit Beasts, what they lack are Spirit Beasts that have grown.

There's no need to mention the importance of the Beast Nurturing Pill formula, and as for the Sturgeon Dragon Liquor formula, it's not only useful to Jiuxiao Scatter Man and Lin Houwei, but the Lin Family also has a large stock of Flood Dragon beast fright.

"That is precisely my plan as well!" Lin Xianzhi nodded in agreement.

The three continued their discussion for a while longer.

"Seventh Great-Uncle, regarding the family matters, Lin Yanjiao's Cultivation Technique aligns well with the Illusionary Heart Pavilion, I think she could take on the role of Family Head!" Lin Shiming introduced the idea.

His father is also in the late stage of Foundation Establishment, and with enough resources piled up, there is hope for reaching Purple Mansion.

However, if he stays in the position of Family Head, delaying his cultivation, he will have wasted time on top of his already subpar talent, leaving him with no hope at all.

Naturally, Lin Shiming hoped his father could live for many more centuries.

The lifespan at the Purple Mansion is twice that of Foundation Establishment.

"That's acceptable, let's put her to the test at that time!" Lin Xianzhi nodded, he felt reassured about Lin Yanjiao, that clever spirit of hers was reminiscent of Lin Shiming's younger days.

But the position of Family Head cannot be passed on lightly.

After discussing important matters, the three drank another cup of Spiritual Tea and then dispersed.

...

The next day, the sun hung high in the sky.

After the continuous rainy season during the Beast Tide, the scorching sun blazing in the sky was a welcome change.

Countless cultivators in Jiuyue City were filled with excitement, converging towards the city.

This time, the Lin Family auction had set the baseline at the late stage of Qi Refinement for entry, with the threshold also being the payment of ten Spirit Stones.

The Spirit Stones weren't much, but it served to prevent an overwhelming number of cultivators from attending.

Yet the auction house, capable of holding three thousand people, was already filled to capacity early on, with a long line of cultivators still standing outside.

```

And the private booths on the second floor were also taken up by Foundation Establishment cultivators.

There were quite a few Foundation Establishment cultivators, so instead of private rooms, the second floor had booths where ten Foundation Establishment cultivators would sit around a table with some ordinary Spiritual Tea and Spirit Fruit.

Besides Spiritual Tea and Spirit Fruit, there was also a Jade Slip containing information about the auction items and the rules.

It even included special rules unique to the Lin Family.

Anyone who won an auction item for more than ten thousand Spirit Stones could, on their next visit to the Lin Family's Pill Pavilion or Artifact Workshop, enjoy a discount of one hundred Spirit Stones on purchases over ten thousand!

For auction items that sold for over one hundred thousand Spirit Stones, the next visit to the Lin Family's Pill Pavilion or Artifact Workshop would include a discount of one thousand Spirit Stones on purchases of one hundred thousand!

...

Following this model, the novel auction method immediately piqued the interest of those cultivators who had never attended an auction on Jiuyue Island or Heavenly Phenomenon Island.

One should know that the Lin Family's commission for consignments was only five percent.

The Lin Family giving nearly one percent back in promotions was a significant move, not to mention the free Spiritual Tea and Spirit Fruit provided at the tables.

Such incentives had never been seen before at other auctions, at least not at ones on such a large scale where Foundation Establishment cultivators like them could enjoy such benefits.

Apart from the booths on the second floor, the private rooms on the third floor were also filled to capacity.

Wearing green silk robes, Yun Chengzi sat in one of the private rooms. He observed the booths, the jade slips, and especially the reactions of the cultivators below.

Even as the head of the Fengxing Trade Alliance, he had to admit that Lin Family's sales strategy was quite helpful.

"Indeed, it's beneficial for Loose Cultivators," a young man in a wind robe nodded in agreement beside Yun Chengzi.

The Lin Family's reward policy was akin to gaining something for nothing; the auction items were likely to sell at a premium, and the discount could only be used on a future purchase,

It was like gaining something for nothing, which greatly fueled the enthusiasm of the cultivators present.

"What a pity that our trade alliance can't take advantage of it," the young man sighed.

"How so?" asked Yun Chengzi with apparent interest.

"Replying to Uncle Yun, the Lin Family is just a small trade team making small transactions; it's normal for them to offer concessions. But for our Fengxing Trade Alliance, we have a renowned reputation without offering concessions," the young man replied.

"Of course, there are lessons to be learned," he added.

"Well said. But remember, today's goal isn't just to watch the Lin Family put on a show," Yun Chengzi said.

"Bid intelligently; don't make our True Person masters think we're truly incompetent," Yun Chengzi concluded.

In his hand, he also held a Crystal Ball.

As a chubby cultivator took the stage, the Crystal Ball lit up completely, and both Yun Chengzi and the young man became solemn.

The room quickly became silent as a tomb.

...

In another private room on the third floor.

Lin Shiming and other key members of the Lin Family gathered together.

Their gaze was directed towards the central hall on the first floor.

With a series of heavy footsteps, Lin Houyuan also in loose green silk robes, stepped up to the high platform.

Today, he looked radiant and healthy. Although he was only at the Middle Stage of Foundation Establishment, no cultivator dared to underestimate Lin Houyuan.

All of the Lin Family's small and large trade groups were managed by Lin Houyuan.

"Distinguished seniors and fellow Daoists, thank you for traveling from afar to join us," he began.

"I am Lin Houyuan, head of the Lin Family's commercial hall and also the overseer of this auction," he continued.

"This auction is hosted by the Lin Family, but we also thank the Fengxing Trade Alliance for their strong support!" Lin Houyuan briefly established the Lin Family's central role yet caused the young man beside Yun Chengzi in the third-floor private room to look somewhat displeased.

This time, the treasures offered by the Fengxing Trade Alliance were even more abundant.

"Well, without further ado, the auction will go to the highest bidder. If one doesn't have enough Spirit Stones, treasures can be used as credit!" he announced.

"The first item for auction: a batch of ten Foundation Establishment Pills. The starting bid is one thousand Intermediate Grade Spirit Stones, with each bid increase no less than one hundred. Additionally, Foundation Establishment families or Loose Cultivators who participated in defending Heavenly Phenomenon Island will receive an additional discount of one hundred Intermediate Grade Spirit Stones on the basis of the existing policy!" Lin Houyuan declared.

As soon as he finished, quite a number of Foundation Establishment and even Qi Refining cultivators began to get excited on the spot.

Many of the cultivators in attendance had participated in the beast tides, and this auction was almost like getting an extra pill for every ten purchased.

While the Southern Sea Cultivation World's Foundation Establishment Pills could be more easily manufactured using Demonic Beast inner cores and were not monopolized, Foundation Establishment Pills were still treasured elixirs.
