(Read the novel to its peak)

The middle-aged man nodded with a polite smile, and then said: "Okay, sir, we can arrange for you the most professional appraisers in the entire Fanmeer City and even the Silang Empire, but you still need to pay before that.

It’s a small fee, of course it’s very low.”

Lin Tao was a little stunned. He didn't expect that the other party would actually charge such a fee, but after thinking about it, he was relieved. If the appraisal was free, I'm afraid the several professional appraisers here would be exhausted because all kinds of weird items would come.

Ask for appraisal of value.

"No problem, how much?" Lin Tao asked.

The middle-aged man held out three fingers and said, "Just three gold coins."

When Lin Tao heard this, he immediately had the urge to curse. Three gold coins? Just? He only had one and a half gold coins in his body, which was what Uncle Fu had left over from buying medicinal materials in the morning.

Embarrassing, really embarrassing. But fortunately, Lin Tao was wearing a mask on his face, so no one could see his expression.

"Sir, sir? What's wrong?" The middle-aged man was a little surprised when he saw Lin Tao didn't speak for a long time.

"It's okay." After hesitating for a moment, Lin Tao decided to find someone to appraise it, because only after appraisal can the value be determined. After all, he didn't know what price this beauty pill could be sold for. After all, this thing is in the world of cultivation.

It is one of the most useless elixirs. And without appraisal, it is not eligible to be auctioned at the weekly auction. The auction house is not a charity, they also want to make a profit, but they make a profit from the goods they sell.

It’s just a commission. If the value of the goods is not high, the commission will be much lower. Therefore, the profit-seeking nature of businessmen drives them to put all the most valuable items at auction.

Seemingly understanding Lin Tao's difficulty, the middle-aged man asked tentatively: "Is there any difficulty with the appraisal fee of three gold coins?"

Lin Tao nodded and did not answer.

The middle-aged man thought for a while and said, "Sir, generally in this case, we will deal with it according to the value given by the appraiser. That is to say, if the price of the goods is not higher than three gold coins, then we will confiscate the items.

To offset the appraisal fee. If it exceeds three gold coins, but the value is not high, we will help you sell the item through other means other than auction, and finally deduct our appraisal fee. In the last case, the item itself is worth a lot

If it is high, then we will wait until after the auction and we will draw a point."

There seemed to be nothing to object to the middle-aged man's opinion. Lin Tao sneered in his heart. Sure enough, he had a plan. Regardless of the value of these seven beauty pills, Luoken Auction House would not suffer a loss. If the value is high enough, a point

But it's not just tens or hundreds of gold coins.

People are like swordsmen, and I am like flesh and blood. Only when you have enough strength can you have enough say. Lin Tao has gradually adapted to the rules of this world.

"Okay." Without the slightest hesitation, Lin Tao agreed to the other party's proposal.

A bright smile instantly bloomed on the middle-aged man's face. The difference from the previous professional smile was that this time it was a smile from the heart.

"Okay, sir, please follow me." As he said that, the middle-aged man took a step forward and led Lin Tao to a room outside the hall.

"Mr. Edward, there is a guest who would like you to appraise his belongings for him." After saying that, the middle-aged man motioned to Lin Tao to take out his belongings.

Sitting on the chair, Edward was an old man in his sixties, with gray beard and hair, but what was surprising was that his eyes were sharp. He lazily placed the cup in his hand gently on the table.

He squinted at Lin Tao and said, "Young man, your mask is pretty good. Okay, let me see what good thing it will be. I hope you won't disappoint me."

Taking the glass bottle handed by Lin Tao, Edward looked at Lin Tao with some suspicion. This was the first time for him, who was well-informed, to see someone use such a simple glass bottle to hold items. It looked like it should be very ordinary.

Things. Edward instantly became a little impatient, and the expectation and curiosity he had just been extinguished was instantly extinguished. After all, with his identity, he had no intention of wasting time on these junk things.

After uncorking the bottle, a vague aroma instantly emanated from the glass bottle, which made people feel refreshed. I was a little curious about what could emit such a brain-stimulating aroma, Edward

Put a white handkerchief on your hand, and then carefully pour out the contents of the bottle.

When he saw the seven small round pills in his hand, Edward picked up the old magnifying glass beside him and slowly looked at them.

"These pills are called beauty pills. What I want to ask you to identify is not their function, but their value." Lin Tao's words were concise and concise, and he even removed the word "detoxification" to avoid being unpleasant.

"Beauty pill?"

"Yes, the beauty pill can protect people's skin and appearance, making them look younger. Even some older people can reduce skin wrinkles and gray hair after using it." Lin Tao explained this.

It is not an exaggeration, the beauty pill does have such effect.

Edward, who was originally in the presence of the old god, jumped up from his chair as if he had been bitten by a poisonous snake. With an expression of surprise on his face, he asked in disbelief: "What? God is my witness, you can guarantee that what you said is not true at all."

Are the exaggerated elements included in the code?”

Lin Tao nodded firmly and said, "No, if you don't believe it, you can try it." This was an understatement, but the eyes of Edward and the middle-aged man in blue were even more surprised, since they dared to try the medicine.

, then it’s just that you are very confident in the efficacy of the beauty pill, and at the same time you have mastered the manufacturing method, so you don’t feel sorry for such an expensive pill.

Edward and the middle-aged man looked at each other, and both read the surprise and excitement in each other's eyes. According to the rules of Roken Auction House, they have the right to get a very small commission from the final transaction price of the item. If

If the final transaction price is high enough, then this part of the commission will be quite considerable.

"Okay, since you are so confident in your elixir, I will invite someone to test the elixir, but before that, I will vilify it. If there is something wrong with this medicine, I mean poisonous, then Luo Ken outside the house

The family guard will definitely show no mercy." Edward said calmly, staring at Lin Tao's eyes hidden under the silver mask.

Lin Tao, however, did not betray him at all. From the other party's eyes, he could see that the beauty pill seemed to be very popular, even a treasure. In this way, it was Lin Tao's character to be arrogant, and he sneered: "

Your words can't scare me, not to mention I won't be stupid enough to die here. You can rest assured to find someone to try the medicine. You will have vomiting and diarrhea immediately after taking it. It will be a little uncomfortable, but as long as you get over it, you will be fine within three hours.

You can see the effects of the medicine.”

The full name of the Beauty Pill is Detoxification and Beauty Pill. In Kyushu’s Alchemy Ranking, it is just a low-grade elixir of the middle and middle yellow ranks of Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang. The refining method and preparation are very simple. Maybe for ordinary people, this is indeed a strange medicine with extraordinary effects. But

For cultivators, it has very little effect and is useless.

The fundamental difference between these two types of people after taking it lies in the mechanism of medication. Ordinary people eat dregs and do not practice Taoism. The toxins in the body gradually accumulate with age, but because the body cannot excrete them smoothly, the toxins deepen and ultimately harm the body.

. But it is different for cultivators. They can expel the dregs from the body through the continuous washing of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Therefore, the effect of using this elixir is average. After all, to put it bluntly, the detoxification and beauty elixir is first to eliminate, but to warm and nourish.

After a while, the middle-aged man in blue who had just left came back, followed by a middle-aged woman, who seemed to be a candidate for the drug test. Lin Tao nodded. It seemed that the two of them were relatively smart. If

It is indeed effective for men to take beauty pills, but the effect is far less than that for women. After all, women are born with delicate skin and it is easier to distinguish the effects of the medicine.

I saw this middle-aged woman dressed in linen. She seemed to be a servant of the auction house. Perhaps it was due to age or life. This middle-aged woman had many wrinkles and spots on her face, and some gray hair on her temples.

The whole person looks like he may be in his forties or fifties.

"Eat it." The middle-aged man in blue handed a beauty elixir in his hand to the middle-aged woman, with a commanding tone, a hard expression and a cold tone that could not be refused.

"Sir, this." The middle-aged woman looked at the pills in her hand, looking a little flustered and unsure of her decision. She wanted to speak, but when she saw the look on the middle-aged man in blue's face, she couldn't say anything.

Lin Tao couldn't bear to see this scene, although he knew that taking beauty pills can only do good things and not bad things. It's just that people tend to be very afraid of strange and unknown things, which makes middle-aged women appear scared. He lamented the inferiority complex in this world.

Miserable, without any right to speak, only to be ravaged and oppressed.

Lin Tao smiled bitterly and shook his head. Lin Tao felt that his sympathy seemed to be overflowing. His own situation was not very good, so he had no intention to sympathize with others.

"Do you want me to say it again? Either eat it, or pack up and leave." The middle-aged man said impatiently.

"Yes! Sir." When the middle-aged woman heard that she was going to be fired, her face turned pale with fright. If she was really fired, then she would really have no chance of survival. She panicked and flashed her face.

With a hint of determination, the middle-aged woman poured the pill in her hand into her mouth, and then swallowed it without thinking.

The middle-aged man in blue sneered and said to himself, "The despicable Tanzanians really cannot be treated with kind words." From the beginning to the end, Edward, who was sitting on the chair, squinted his eyes and looked at

The book wrapped in sheepskin in his hand seemed not to be surprised by all this.

The moment she swallowed the beauty pill, the middle-aged woman's face was full of panic and fear. The fear had spread throughout her heart. She didn't know what would happen to her next moment, so she could only wait helplessly. But waiting was the most difficult thing.

Yes, just a few minutes seemed like months or even years to her. Fortunately, the feared thing did not happen, and the fear in her heart gradually dissipated as time went by.

.

After a while, the expression on the middle-aged woman's face was no longer one of fear, but rather ugly. "Sir, I, I think." She looked at the middle-aged man in blue with some fear, and she no longer dared to say the next words.

, his face was swollen red, and his face was full of embarrassment.

The middle-aged man waved his hands angrily, "Go away, poor bitch, and come back to see me after you've dealt with it." He could smell the smell in the air and cursed angrily.

The middle-aged woman ran out in panic as if she had been granted amnesty.

It took three hours to see the results, and Lin Tao had no choice but to wait. Several times in the meantime, the middle-aged man in blue tried to trick Lin Tao into telling him what he said. Issues such as Lin Tao's identity and the origin of the beauty pill were all brushed aside by Lin Tao.

Although he knew that Lin Tao didn't want to reveal his identity, the middle-aged man still couldn't help but ask. After all, Lin Tao was probably a cash cow to him. Since the young man wearing the silver mask in front of him knew the refining method and established a good relationship, let him

If the other party continues to supply goods, won’t the money keep rolling in?

Edward, who was on one side, had the same mentality. The thick parchment that looked like turning his head didn't seem to fascinate him as much as before. He would always raise his head and look at the masked man.

Time passed very quickly. During this period, several people chatted one after another. However, every time when they talked about substantive issues, Lin Tao always got stuck, blocking everything they wanted to know. This made

The middle-aged man was at his wits' end.

When the middle-aged woman appeared in the house, Edward even thought that he had an eye disease. "Oh, my God, this is like a masterpiece of God. If I hadn't been prepared in my heart, I wouldn't have remembered that she was that person."

servant."

The middle-aged man nodded in agreement, his face full of excitement, "The effect looks surprisingly good. Haha, if the beauty pill is put up for auction, it will probably cause the noble ladies to go crazy."

I saw that the middle-aged woman with wrinkles and spots on her face seemed to be a different person at this moment. The wrinkles on her forehead and the crow's feet at the corners of her eyes were much lighter than before, and the lines were much lighter. If she looked like just now

If it was scratched by a sharp dagger, then it can only be regarded as an understatement at best. And those stains and freckles have disappeared by 70 to 80%. If you don't look closely, they will basically not be noticed.

, even the white hair on the temples miraculously disappeared.

"The power of God is truly miraculous."

Lin Tao nodded with satisfaction. It seems that the effect is indeed good. This has nothing to do with the age of the experimenter himself. It is just an old age caused by the years of wind and frost, poor living environment and hard work. After excluding the body

After removing the toxins and warming the five internal organs, the whole person regains its vitality.

The middle-aged woman looked at the men in front of her with some uneasiness. She saw the surprise in their eyes, and she even didn't know what happened to her face. It might be much better than before, because she could clearly see it.
