"I'll give you a thousand taels!"
A man in the center of the room shouted out this astonishing number, only an Oiran can afford the price of a thousand gold overnight, I secretly applauded, this man is still very knowledgeable.
But when I looked closely, I gasped hard, this person was at least three times the size of Chang Xi's body, a body of fat meat, and the waistband of his pants couldn't tie the flesh in front of his stomach.
What's even more filthy is that there are still two women sitting on his lap who are humming and chirping, I sighed, Chang Xi must not be planted in his hands.
After he shouted out a thousand taels, the smile of the grandmother next to him was about to crack, and the handkerchief was flicked: "Is there anyone who bids higher than a thousand taels?" If not, Miss Xi is this master's. β
There was silence.
The man blew the beard on the side of his mouth triumphantly, and just as Mama was about to finalize it, a voice as bright as a sword sounded from the cornerβ
"Three thousand taels!"
The crowd exclaimed. The fat man's eyes widened, and his eyes wandered around to see who was so bold.
Chang Xi's eyes tightened, fixed on Liu Zhang's face with some anger and stubbornness, he didn't look at Chang Xi, just drank alone, and ignored everyone's eyes, Wei Ran sat in the banquet.
Liu Zhang was wearing a crescent-colored wide-sleeved gown, with a gray fur collar draped over his shoulders, compared to the fat man, it was very fresh, and it really saved my eyeballs in time.
The fat man saw that he had lost face, and after hesitating repeatedly, he shouted again: "Five thousand taels." After shouting, he was visibly in pain.
Liu Zhang did not hesitate and wiped the wine from his mouth: "Ten thousand taels!" β
"You're not crazy! You ......"
Liu Zhang took out a silver ticket of 10,000 taels from his bosom and pressed it on the table, his eyes did not move, and he said coldly: "Why, can you afford to be higher than 10,000 taels?" β
"It's just a woman who doesn't even know what to look like, Lao Tzu is not rare!"
The fat man was enraged, pushed away the two 'chickens' sitting on his lap, and walked out of the Forgotten Dust Pavilion with his subordinates in a hurry.
Mama looked at a big financier, and hurriedly stepped forward: "This master has a good eye, although our Miss Xi does not sell her body, but 10,000 taels, let our Miss Xi serve the master well and drink without getting drunk and returning, it is also worth it!" β
She took the silver ticket and brought Liu Zhang to Changxi: "I will arrange a wing room immediately." β
Everyone pointed and pointed, and the noise was louder. Liu Zhang took Chang Xi's hand, his eyes passed through the half of the mask she was wearing, he still remembered these eyes clearly, and he asked softly, "It's you, right?" β
Chang Xi's shoulders shook, she wore very little today, and it seemed that she was thinner, if she was a strong man, she could almost be encircled in her arms with one arm.
She shrank back and lowered her head: "Jiang Gongzi......"
After hearing this voice, Liu Zhang breathed a sigh of relief, he dragged Chang Xi to turn around and leave, Chang Xi could only trot behind him, a little surprised.
The grandmother saw that the situation was not good, and stepped forward to stop: "Where is this master going to take our girl?" β
"The 10,000 taels just now were for her. He's mine now, and of course I'm going to take her away. β
After that, Liu Zhang dragged Chang Xi to his side again, and his hand tightly clasped Chang Xi's arm, like a child's domineering refusal to share playthings with others.
