Beauty and the Bodyguard

"Then I suggest that you sell it in bulk. Although the price will be higher if you sell it in bulk, you're not familiar with this place, after all. You may not be able to sell it all in a short time. Brother, you also know that although the body of this early Foundation Stage spirit beast doesn't rot so quickly, after it's cut open, the spiritual energy will quickly dissipate. After a long time, the value will depreciate. What do you think, brother?" The bearded middle-aged man analyzed sincerely,""Also, it's illegal to sell spirit beast corpses in private. Without a strong background, it'll be troublesome if the spirit beast clan on the sky rank southern island finds out! Of course, you don't have to be afraid of trouble. I'm just giving you a reminder. "

"Oh, let me think." Lin Yi replied noncommittally, but he didn't give a direct answer to how he was going to sell it.

Although the bearded middle-aged man sounded sincere, he was still a merchant here. He couldn't be too impatient when dealing with merchants, especially when there were many merchants coming to ask for prices. If he rashly promised them now, it would be difficult to sell them for a high price later.

The middle-aged man sighed helplessly after seeing Lin Yi's determined face. He'd wanted to get Lin Yi to sell it to him at a fixed price before anyone else. As long as Lin Yi nodded, according to the rules of the market, no one would be able to bid for it at a higher price.

Unfortunately, Lin Yi was young, but he'd seen a lot of these things-he wouldn't fall for this easily.

It wasn't long before five or six people gathered around Lin Yi, expressing their interest in the body. Lin Yi smiled to himself-this was enough for a small auction.

However, this was a good thing. With so many people competing with each other, at least he didn't have to worry about selling at a loss.

Seeing that most of the people were here, Lin Yi didn't want to make a scene any longer. After all, he still had business to attend to. He immediately cupped his hands to the merchants,"Everyone, this one plans to sell this nine tailed cloud piercing leopard's corpse. If anyone is interested, please state your price. According to the rules of the market, the highest bidder will get it."

The reason why he chose to sell them in bulk instead of selling them in bulk was naturally to save time. Otherwise, he might not be able to sell them all even if he stayed here for an entire day, let alone finish them within an hour before the opening of the inner street.

Plus, even if he wasn't in a hurry, he wouldn't covet this bit of spiritual Jade just for the sake of his identity. After all, there was only one thousand silk mask. If this face was familiar to others, it would not be easy to use it to hide his identity and do anything in the future.

The merchants looked at each other, their eyes filled with helplessness. Although it was a Common Market rule that the higher the price, they were happy to see such a scene as sellers, but now they were in the position of buyers, which was somewhat disadvantageous for them.

If they fought each other to the death, the one who would benefit from it wouldn't be any of them, but Lin Yi, the seller.

However, even if they knew that it would not be easy to buy and sell, they could only bite the bullet and continue. After all, the Nine-Tailed cloud piercer leopard was a strategic scarce resource with an eye-catching effect! If they let it go and let other competitors buy it, a large number of customers might be snatched away in the future. That would be a really heavy loss!

He'd only thought that the body wouldn't be of much use to him, and that it'd be a waste of space to keep it in the Jade space. He'd rather sell it for some spirit Jade, but he never thought that it'd turn out to be such an advantageous situation.

From the looks of it, his luck today was pretty good and he should be able to earn quite a lot of spirit Jade, just enough to save up some capital for the bid for the star inkstone in the inner street.

"This brother, before we start bidding, can you let us check if the body is complete?" One of the merchants asked.

Lin Yi nodded."Of course. Other than the core, I didn't touch any of the other parts. You can check it yourself."

The merchants present were all experts, and it was clear at a glance whether the corpse had been tampered with. It was impossible to hide it from their eyes and ears.

The few of them flipped through it and nodded in satisfaction. Normally, the most valuable part of a spirit beast's body was its inner core. Once the inner core was dug out, the other parts of the body would lose at least half of their value.

However, for the merchants who didn't care about this, as long as the corpse was complete enough to prove that it was a Nine-Tailed cloud piercing leopard, it was enough to capture their attention.

As for whether or not the inner core was still there, that was a secondary problem. Because in the end, even the neidan of the nine tailed cloud piercing leopard was only an early Foundation Stage neidan. There was no difference in essence between it and the neidan of other spirit beasts of the same level. Although its value was not low, it was not that rare.

However, these people were merchants after all, and they definitely wouldn't miss this opportunity to bargain."Although the corpse of a Nine-Tailed cloud piercer leopard is relatively rare, the price has been greatly reduced because its inner core has already been dug out. How about this, I'll bid 80 spirit Jade."

"Eighty spiritual jades?" Lin Yi raised an eyebrow, not saying anything.

The last two times he had been to the market, he had seen the prices of the corpses of spirit beasts. The corpses of early-stage Foundation establishment spirit beasts were generally priced at more than a hundred spirit jade pieces, and they did not contain the inner core.

The Nine-Tailed cloud piercing leopard was a rare and scarce item. Even if these merchants wanted to earn a price difference from it, it was impossible to lower the price to such a low price.

The price of 80 spiritual jades was simply bullying him, a layman!

Lin Yi didn't say anything, but it was obvious that he didn't care. The seller couldn't help but curse at himself for making a mistake. He wanted to slap himself in the face.

It was his professional habit to subconsciously try to get the most out of Lin Yi, and he didn't react in time. There were so many people in the same trade, and this wasn't a place for him to lower the price-he should increase it!

Sure enough, the bearded middle-aged man who was one step ahead of them immediately sneered and said,""Eighty spiritual jade pieces? Was this a habit of collecting junk? This brother, you'd better not waste your time with these talkative and poor fellows. Just sell it to me straightforwardly for a hundred and fifty spiritual jade pieces. How about it?"
