Chapter 42: The two little masters tear up
But there was not even a man by her side, so she could only sit at the end for 50 taels of silver.
For the hot eyes around her, Lu Xiaoxiao directly chose to ignore it. She was almost the last to enter the auction room, and after a few breaths of sitting, a woman with a bewitching figure and a convex front and back qiao came to the stage with a professional smile.
After a few opening remarks, without superfluous nonsense, the first auction item of the day began.
The first lot in the auction was a cape, made of the fur of a Tier 4 Snow Marten. It is not only a mink cape, but also a defensive function. Wearing this cloak of the Snow Marten, even if there is no True Qi to protect the body, the warriors and low-level samurai cannot pierce the mink with sword attacks. It can be said to be a must-have product for everyone to guard against wolves and enemies.
The starting price of the mink cloak is 3,000 taels of silver, and the reserve price is moderately high. But in just a few rounds, the price of a mink was raised to five thousand taels.
"Although the snow marten is very precious and difficult to catch, the real value should be its magic core, internal organs, and flesh. The demon core of the fourth-level demonic beast is already considered top-grade here, it can assist in cultivation, and the internal organs are used in medicine, which can make the body produce anti-cold antibodies, even in this cold winter, it will not feel cold. Its meat is tender and smooth, and it can resist some poisonous substances within five years after eating. ”
After listening to Wuyan's explanation, Lu Xiaoxiao pursed her lips.
Although this mink is indeed beautiful and warm to wear in winter, it is not worth the price. There are more beautiful cloaks than this mink, and the Antarctic continent advocates force, and many ladies have practiced internal strength, if there is really an enemy, most people will find someone above the martial artist to start. So this defense doesn't do much at all.
However, just when Lu Xiaoxiao already felt that five thousand taels of silver to buy a cloak was enough to be brainless, a woman in the Tianzi room on the third floor quoted a price of ten thousand taels.
Just when Lu Xiaoxiao felt that there was really a stupid local tyrant, another voice came out of the other room, bidding 10,000 and 1 taels.
Is this the rhythm that wants to off that stupid tyrant?
Lu Xiaoxiao looked up gossipingly, but what she saw from here was only the window. The spectators on the side saw that she felt novel, and kindly explained: "The one who just bid 10,000 taels is Nangong Ling Yao, the seventh princess of Nanzhao Kingdom, and the second lady from the Anyang family is the one who raised the bar with her. ”
Anyang? The fifth-largest super family of the Seven Families?
There are two such super families in Nanzhaoguo, one is the Fang family where Jingxing Auction House is located, and the other is the Anyang family. This Anyang family is outside the imperial power, no wonder a young lady can be so domineering with the princess.
"The relationship between the Anyang family and the royal family is not good?"
"The girl usually stays in the boudoir and doesn't come out much, right? The relationship between the royal families of the three kingdoms and the seven great families has always been very delicate, interdependent and mutually exclusive, and there is nothing good or bad to talk about. As long as some small frictions in private do not rise to the height of human life, the two parties generally will not deal with them.
It's like the Seventh Princess and Miss Anyang, not only do they have to compete in all aspects, but as long as they meet on the road, it's normal to fight. But no matter who is injured, the emperor and the head of the Anyang family will not come forward. ”
Lu Xiaoxiao nodded, very grateful for this enthusiastic explanation.
During the explanation, the price has soared to 30,000 taels of silver.
"Thirty thousand and one taels." The third lady of the Anyang family continued to be angry, and she added one or two more than she could afford to die.
"Fifty thousand taels!" The Seven Princesses continued to bid.
"Fifty thousand and one taels!"
"Anyang Mantong, what do you mean?" The seventh princess finally couldn't help it, and snapped open the window and scolded the other side.
"Cut, if you can't afford to lose, you will concede. Scolding a fart! The princess of a dignified country is not afraid of being embarrassed. The window on the opposite side was still ajar, and the scolding that came out was full of thick unshavenness.
"Fifty thousand and one two once, twice ......" The talents of the Fang family no matter who is in the Tianzi room above and what grievances they have, they are ready to make a final decision.
"One hundred thousand taels!" The seventh princess was angry and yelled towards the lobby, causing a burst of heckling from the visitors.
100,000 taels! There's a lot to buy!
"One hundred thousand taels, is there anyone who pays a higher price?" The auctioneer of the Fang family smiled and looked at the window where An Yang's house was.
"If you don't add it, the fool will only spend 100,000 taels of silver to buy a mink cloak."
"Anyang Mantong, you are enough! Who do you say is a fool? The shrill voice of the seventh princess came out again.
"Who's going to say who!"
The third lady of the Anyang family undoubtedly knew about the death of the seventh princess. With a tone that it was none of her business and didn't want to talk to her brain-dead, the seventh princess was so angry that she jumped to her feet.
"Anyang Mantong, you provoked the imperial power, right?"
"Tsk! Isn't it a fool's job to buy a mink cloak for 100,000 taels of silver? Miss Ben is just talking about things, why was she accused of provoking imperial power by the Seventh Princess? Oh, I'm so scared! To offend the Seventh Princess is to provoke the imperial power, Seventh Princess, are you your father? Why did I say a word to you, and I provoked the imperial power? ”
"You ......"
The seventh princess was so angry that she couldn't speak for a while. However, the third lady of the Anyang family did not intend to stop there.
"Ah, speaking of imperial power, it reminds Miss Ben of one thing. The people in the northwest of Nanzhao suffered a disaster, and the imperial court could not take out enough silver for disaster relief, so my Anyang family took out 300,000 loads of rice for the people to fight against natural disasters with the imperial court. Seventh princess, you are good, when the treasury is so empty, you can still take out 100,000 taels of silver to buy a cloak, and you really deserve to be the most favored seventh princess! ”
Miss Anyang's words once again caused a commotion in the audience, and the reputation of the seventh princess began to decline under Miss Anyang's vigorous gossip.
Being accused of being the imperial power has scared the seventh princess, and now Anyang Mantong has associated her luxury with the victims. My father was in a bad mood when she was close to Japan, and if her actions today were spread, she would definitely be scolded to death.
"Anyang Mantong, you spew people with blood!" The seventh princess was in a hurry and cried directly.
A slightly immature male voice came out of the seventh princess's room: "Miss Anyang, the seventh princess is used to being pampered on weekdays, and she has a lot of treasures and savings from childhood to adulthood, only 100,000 taels, and the seventh princess can still take it out, how can she be connected with the people who have suffered from the disaster?"
Could it be that the Seventh Princess's personal savings should be put into the treasury for disaster relief? What about Miss Anyang? As the concubine of the Anyang family, why are you bidding with the Seventh Princess here? Shouldn't you also use your own money for disaster relief?
The Anyang family is one of the top ten families, holding a full twenty percent of the resources of the Nanzhao Kingdom, you and the people of the Shenwu Sect were born to protect the Nanzhao, and the people of Nanzhao suffered disasters, shouldn't you contribute?
