Chapter 629 Guru… Guru Sword? No Service Charge
“What?”
The middle-aged man widened his eyes and looked at Fang Qiu in disbelief. “All these are sixth-class?”
“Yes.”
Fang Qiu nodded with confidence.
The middle-aged man was simply struck dumb.
“Sixth-class swords!”
“This guy has so many sixth-class swords. Is he in the wholesale business?”
Amid the astonishment, the middle-aged man quickly fetched the Sword Testing Stone and put the swords on it one by one. As it turned out, every time he placed a sword on the stone, the silver energy lines moved up swiftly, surpassing the measuring mark of the fifth class showed in the previous test and dashing to a spot only one-third of the length of the stone away from the end.
“Yes, yes… they’re all sixth-class!”
After testing them one by one, the middle-aged man found that the 12 swords were all sixth-class weapons, and the auras they carry were very strong!
“Are these enough to cut down the service fee a little?” Asked Fang Qiu.
“Okay.”
The middle-aged man considered it for a while and said, “I can cut your service fee to 5%. If you can offer me a seventh-grade sword, I can even lower it to 3%!”
Then, the middle-aged man turned to stare at Fang Qiu.
Fang Qiu didn’t say a word but patted the case with his right hand.
Three more swords flew out immediately!
“Okay, you do have more!”
The middle-aged man gave a shudder. He was just making a conversation. He didn’t expect that Fang Qiu actually had more.
“For 15 sixth-class swords, the service is still 5%. It can’t go down.”
The middle-aged man gawked at Fang Qiu as if he was looking at a freak.
He was wondering where such a person came from.
How come he had so many precious swords?
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“You may have misunderstood me.”
Fang Qiu put the three swords on the counter and said, “These three swords are seventh-class!”
“Oh!” The middle-aged man replied.
His hand, which had just grabbed the Sword Testing Stone, suddenly froze. Then, he slowly turned to look at Fang Qiu and asked, “What, what did you say?”
“I said, these three swords are all seventh-class,” Fang Qiu repeated.
The middle-aged man was stunned.
He did not pose any more questions but hurriedly took the Sword Testing Stone to do the test.
Sure enough, the silver lines on the stone rushed to a higher spot than before, proving that these swords had indeed reached the seventh class.
“Since you said the service fee is 3% if I have one more seventh-class sword, shouldn’t you give me a bigger discount when I’ve presented you three?” Fang Qiu asked with a smile after the middle-aged man finished the test.
“Give you 2%!” The middle-aged man said brusquely.
Then, he stood on tiptoes and craned his neck to look at the jade case on Fang Qiu’s back. When he saw that there were still three lids that hadn’t been opened, he immediately asked, “Anything else?”
“Yes.”
Fang Qiu nodded and clapped the case again.
An eighth-class sword shot out and fell directly into Fang Qiu’s hand.
“This, this is…?”
Staring at the sword in Fang Qiu’s hand with longing eyes, the middle-aged man swallowed and questioned, feeling his mouth dry.
“It’s eighth-class.”
Fang Qiu smiled and handed the sword to the middle-aged man.
Hearing his words, though the middle-aged man was mentally prepared for this, his eyes still popped out at the word “eighth-class”.
He quickly reached out to take it and then placed it on the Sword Testing Stone.
The silver line on the stone rushed straight up and stopped when it was only a little bit away from the top.
“Eighth-class, it’s really eighth-class.”
The middle-aged man’s voice began to tremble with excitement. His eyes were fixed on the eighth-class sword in his hand. Then, he murmured with exhilaration, “How many years has it been since I last saw this in Wulin. Eighth-class… an eighth-class sword!”
“Can the service fee be any lower?” Fang Qiu asked timely.
“2% is already very cheap.”
The middle-aged man looked expectantly at Fang Qiu.
“It’s still too high. Well, I’ll just go to other auction agencies. Who knows, they might even not charge me any service fee.”
Fang Qiu pretended to get back his swords.
“Don’t!”
Hearing this, the middle-aged man panicked. He reached out to stop Fang Qiu while gritting his teeth and said, “1%. Just 1%, okay?”
“That’s more like it.”
Fang Qiu nodded as if it was a matter of course.
He knew that the middle-aged man was also aware that now it was not about the price, but the chance to get famous!action
It didn’t matter how much exactly these swords were worth.
Just the auction alone was a good opportunity to gain more fame.
If Fang Qiu took these precious swords to another auction agency to sell, wouldn’t that be a slap in the face to the Chic Cloud Pavilion?
The Chic Cloud Pavilion had claimed that they only sold the best items in Wulin. If the eighth-class sword fell into the hands of other auction agencies, how could the Chic Cloud Pavilion have the face to stay in the business anymore?
Therefore, no matter what, the Chic Cloud Pavilion had to attain these precious swords!
“When is your next auction?” Fang Qiu asked directly after the service fee was settled.
“There will be one in a month.”
The middle-aged man checked the schedule and said, “I can arrange it for you. Auction all these swords in that one.”
“Can we hold a special auction in five days?” Asked Fang Qiu with a frown.
It was not because he was so arrogant that he thought he could hold a special auction for his items, but because he did not have much time left. Five days was already the longest he could wait. If later than that, he would have to take off for the medical conference.
“Impossible.”
The middle-aged man immediately shook his head and said, “To hold an auction, these swords of yours are not enough. Although they are all high-quality, you need enough time to prepare for the auction and do the promotion. You also need some ordinary weapons as an appetizer. Five days is too short. I say no!”
“What if I offer you another one?” Asked Fang Qiu tentatively.
“Huh?”
The middle-aged man quivered from head to foot. Once again, he stood on tiptoes and looked at the jade case on Fang Qiu’s back. When he found that there were still two lids that hadn’t been opened, he immediately asked, “More eighth-class?”
Fang Qiu shook his head.
“Ninth-class?”
The middle-aged man’s voice began to shiver.
In fact, he already saw it coming.
Every time Fang Qiu took out his swords, they would be one level higher than the last ones. At first, he presented fifth-class swords, then, the sixth-class, the seventh-class sword, and finally the eighth-class sword.
Now, in the last two lids that had not been opened were probably the ninth-class and the…!
The middle-aged man didn’t dare to think further about it.
Therefore, he tentatively asked if it was an eighth-class sword. As he found it was not, the only possibility was that it was a ninth-class one!
No one in the martial art world had ever seen a ninth-class sword. And the Chic Cloud Pavilion had never auctioned a ninth-class sword since it was founded!
If this was true, it would be too, too… awesome!
However, in the face of the middle-aged man’s question, Fang Qiu said with a calm face, “A Guru Sword!”
“Huh?”
The middle-aged man was shocked and abruptly fell backward.
It seemed that he tripped on the rattan bed because he was overwhelmed by the news.
“Smack!”
Throwing a hand on the wall behind him to keep balance, the middle-aged man turned his head and looked at Fang Qiu in great shock. He propped himself up and gently flexed his right hand, motioning Fang Qiu to display the sword.
Seeing this, Fang Qiu directly knocked off the last second lid, and then reached out and pulled the Guru Sword out of the jade case.
Once the Guru Sword was out, a gust of cold wind instantly blew past them.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe nearby Qi of Heaven and Earth began to surge.
The middle-aged man was also a Martial Superior, so he could naturally sense the surge of the Qi of Heaven and Earth. At the same time, he also detected the aura emitted from the Guru Sword.
At the sight of the Guru Sword, the middle-aged man almost dropped to his knees.
Then he quickly took a deep breath, raised his both shaky hands to take the sword in excitement.
Fang Qiu handed over the sword.
Thrilled, the middle-aged man held the sword with both hands. He quickly observed it with his gleaming eyes before putting the sword on the Sword Testing Stone.
The next moment, the silver lines on the stone suddenly rushed from the bottom to the top as if they were having adrenaline high, and then quickly circled around the frame until the sliver lines filled the entire stone completely!
“This is… Guru… Guru Sword?”
The middle-aged man didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. Anyway, looking at the Sword Testing Stone covered with silver lines, he was completely stunned. All he saw now was the Guru Sword. He was so overjoyed and excited that he almost fainted!
Fang Qiu also noted that the highest level this stone could test was the guru. Perhaps it was because Guru Sword had never appeared before, so there were only nine ranks on the stone. It could clearly show the ranks of the weapons from the first class to the ninth class. But when it came to higher levels, it could only display like this, which showed that this sword was absolutely above the ninth class.
Looking at the silver energy lines running wildly on the Sword Testing Stone, Fang Qiu thought to himself, “Would I blow up this Sword Testing Stone if I get a weapon at the two flowers level?”
Of course, that was just an idea. After all, Fang Qiu still had a long way to go before he could bear two flowers in his Dantian.
“Five days.”
All of a sudden, the stunned middle-aged man grabbed Fang Qiu’s hand and said, “Give me five days. I will definitely hold an exclusive auction for you. No service charge. You won’t even pay for the 1%!”
The middle-aged man was all enlivened.
He was one of the managers working for the Chic Cloud Pavilion and was under a lot of pressure because of the fierce competition in this field. If it weren’t for his rich experience bestowed by his age and proficiency in hosting affairs, he would have been eliminated long ago.
But he never knew, today, there was such a big opportunity falling into his hand for no reason.
He had to seize this rare opportunity no matter what!
“Good!”
Hearing the middle-aged man’s words, Fang Qiu nodded at once.
“So, are you keeping this sword or leaving it here?” The middle-aged man asked urgently.
“Leave it here.”
Fang Qiu thought for a moment and said, “That’s safer.”
“Okay.”
The middle-aged man immediately nodded excitedly and added, “I’ll prepare the letter of authorization for this auction right now.”
It was no wonder that the Chic Cloud Pavilion was the largest auction agency in the martial art circle.
Very soon, the middle-aged man had the letter of authorization at ready.
Fang Qiu read the document carefully. After making sure that the man had written down the exact ranks of the 19 swords and that there was no problem with the terms, he signed the letter of authorization.
While Fang Qiu was handling the paperwork, the middle-aged man took out a single-len reflex camera and snapped shots of the 20 swords!
When Fang Qiu was done with the paperwork, he took his departure with the jade case on his back.
Looking at the back of Fang Qiu as he went off, the middle-aged man exhaled deeply. Then, his eyes fell on the last lid of the jade case Fang Qiu carried on his back. It was the only one that he had not opened.
“The last second is the Guru Sword, so the last one might be…”
In the middle-aged man’s eyes, there was a shock that could not be topped.
He didn’t dare to think further.
The Guru Sword was already the most horrible weapon known in the entire Wulin. If Fang Qiu also displayed the last one, wouldn’t it scare people to death?
More importantly, the fact that Fang Qiu had put a Guru Sword on auction told the middle-aged man that this young man was definitely not an ordinary person. He must be the kind of man that even the Chic Cloud Pavilion dared not to mess with!
