Chapter 128 Auction
Chapter 128 Auction
Mingyue Tower in Songcheng is where the auction is held.
Chen Bing and others had already made their arrangements. An Ba and An Shi also sneaked into Mingyue Tower and could assist Wei Chu and others when the time comes.
Qin Chaoyan, Wei Wu and others were still in the dilapidated temple. As the antidote powder given by Jiang Yuandao had not been prepared yet, she stayed and was responsible for delivering the medicine later.
After the medicine powder was ready, Wei Wu and the other two were fine, but Wei Zhao and the others, and even Qi Mo were looking at her eagerly.
"Master..."
"Master, can you take us there?"
Qin Chaoyan frowned and thought for a moment, "It's too dangerous. If you show up at the scene, you might hinder Wei Chu and the others."
When they were all dejected, Qin Chaoyan took out a map. She was referring to the simple map that Wei Chu had drawn according to An Ba's words. Qin Chaoyan copied it using talisman paper.
"But, you see," Qin Chaoyan said, "there is an inn opposite Mingyue Tower. If we go here, we will be able to hear any commotion in Mingyue Tower."
"When the time comes, I will set up a transfer formation there, rescue the people, and place them inside. If it is not safe, we will transfer them immediately."
As Qin Chaoyan spoke, Wei Wu and others nodded, agreeing with her.
Qin Chaoyan touched the heads of everyone one by one, even the three college students Wei Wu, Chen Fengnian and Shan Ge.
Wei Wu could barely hold back his unhappy expression, while Chen Fengnian and Shan Ge both had red faces.
An Qi and the others were watching. What was going on? Why did they feel a little envious?
An Eleven is the youngest among An Seven and he is only fourteen years old this year.
Among the secret guards who came out to protect Qin Chaoyan and others, he was the one who envied the students of Yingtian Academy the most.
if……
He lowered his eyes, and there was a touch of warmth on his head.
An Shiyi opened his eyes wide. They were now in a ruined temple and Brother An Qi did not give any warning, so there was no danger now.
Well, this is...
He raised his head and met Qin Chaoyan's face. Her hand was on top of his head.
Qin Chaoyan rubbed his head with a little force, "You are just a kid, you should be more lively! Don't always look down and depressed."
"Yes, husband, goddess."
"Just call me Master."
"Master!"
Qin Chaoyan said: "Are you ready? Are you sure you haven't missed anything?"
Wei Wu carefully checked the wooden tubes containing the medicine powder and then put them all into a wooden box.
He carefully lifted the wooden box, "Master, it's ready."
"Okay, let's set off now." Qin Chaoyan said.
Mingyue Building
Tonight, the Mingyue Tower is full of members of the Dark Moon Cult, and some are buyers who want to choose slaves that suit their taste.
Wei Chu and Jiang Guangbai had successfully sneaked in. Among the first batch of slaves at the auction, Fei Si and his companions were among them.
The commentator on the stage was the man in blue whom Wei Chu and Qin Chaoyan had met in the house that day.
"Everyone, this batch is for lower-class servants, and the starting bid is fifty taels. Lower-class servants are strong and can work for twelve hours without rest."
"You can all rest assured that the slaves we trade at the Mingyue Tower auction once a month are a hundred or a thousand times better than those sold outside."
"How do you say that?" asked one of the buyers below.
Qing Yi sneered, "It seems that we have new friends coming to support us tonight."
"The biggest advantage of the slaves sold by our Mingyue Tower, and what makes them different from those sold elsewhere, is that they are absolutely obedient to their masters and will not betray them."
Qingyi chuckled twice and picked out Fei Si from among the people in the group.
"You, come out."
Fei Si stepped out of the line in a daze and said, "Turn around for everyone." He did as he was told.
"Introduce yourself to your future employers and tell them what you will do."
"On the 21st of the month, he knows martial arts, can fight, and can eat."
Jiang Guangbai could hardly hold back his laughter. The corners of Wei Chu's mouth twitched. This answer showed that he was truly convinced that the "Soul Burning" in the martial arts world could really make people lose their minds.
The buyers burst into laughter, and Qingyi glared at Fei Si.
"Go, go, go back."
Fei Si (Month 21) did as he was told and rolled back on the spot.
The buyers laughed again. It was hard to tell whether Qingyi's expression was good or bad. The deputy envoy who was watching all this from upstairs crushed the teacup in his hand.
He stared at Qing Yi on the auction table upstairs with a sinister look and cursed, "This idiot!"
"If this thing falls into my hands, I will make him pay to buy Yue 21st!"
Fortunately, among the buyers tonight, someone actually took a fancy to the 21st of the month (Fee 4).
"How much is the price on the 21st of that month? Is one hundred taels enough?"
Wei Chu turned around, looked at the wealthy young man who made the bid, and gave Jiang Guangbai another look.
Jiang Guangbai nodded, raised his hand and shouted.
"I, I'll pay one hundred and fifty taels!"
An Ba and An Shi went to investigate the Dark Moon Cult's background in the building and estimate how many soldiers there were. Qin Chaoyan had not delivered the antidote yet, and when they entered the city, they had not received Chen Bing's signal.
Therefore, before entering Mingyue Tower, Wei Chu and Jiang Guangbai's idea was to pretend to be buyers and buy the victim first without being exposed.
Wei Chuyin was standing in front of Jiang Guangbai. Jiang Guangbai's skin color was painted a little darker and his eyebrows were changed, so the group of people couldn't recognize him.
Moreover, before coming in, Wei Chu repeatedly reminded him to act like a dandy young man.
Thinking of Wei Chu's words, Jiang Guangbai straightened his chest again, raised his chin slightly, revealed a haughty expression, and shouted again.
"One hundred and fifty taels, I want this!"
"One hundred and sixty taels!"
"Two hundred taels!"
After Jiang Guangbai shouted this, the man who had originally chased the price stopped shouting.
This is just a lowly servant, and it would not be worth it if the money was increased.
"Okay! Two hundred taels for one time, two hundred taels for two times, two hundred taels for three times!" Qing Yi made the decision, "Sir, the 21st of the month is yours! Pay the money and I will give you the person!"
Jiang Guangbai pretended to be a rich young man, walked up to the auction table, and took out two silver notes worth one hundred taels.
"Haha, so refreshing!"
Qingyi saw the banknote, pulled out Yue 21 (Fei Si), and pushed it next to Jiang Guangbai.
"Go, young master, I will be your master from now on, work hard."
"Master." Yue Twenty-One (Fei Si) said in a daze.
Jiang Guangbai clenched his hands into fists in his sleeves. He tried his best to act like a dandy. He laughed twice, said "not bad", and walked off the stage. Yue Twenty-One (Fei Si) followed closely behind him.
Next, this batch of twelve low-ranking servants were all bought by Jiang Guangbai and Zhang Ping who arrived later.
People around had some complaints, but the Qingyi man in charge of the auction didn't care.
