Chapter 32 Prefectural Auction
The gate of Zhantian Wang's Mansion was closed, but the front of the door had already been surrounded by people, Ding Sijia and Wu came in advance, and kept looking around looking for Li Lei's figure, and when he saw him appear, he hurriedly greeted him.
"Big brother, this time it's lively, not only the families of Zhantian County are going to participate in the auction, but the rich families from the surrounding counties are also here, and I heard that there are also medium-sized families from the county government who are also coming to join in the fun. Hehe, I really want to see their disappointed faces now. ”
With Li Lei as a backer and Wei Changzheng's token, Ding Sijia and Wu also became fearless, and the two little officials also straightened their waists in front of the members of the family, and they were neither humble nor arrogant to anyone, but only bowed their heads respectfully to him.
Seeing Li Lei coming, the expressions of the family members were also different, some people greeted enthusiastically whether they knew each other or not, Li Lei also nodded in response, while some snorted coldly and ignored it, and some cast hateful eyes, making Li Lei inexplicable, he had been lying down too many times for a while, and he didn't know who he had offended.
The door was opened by the Xu family, and people were about to rush in, but they were all stopped.
"What? What qualifications do your Xu family members have to receive money from the door, and pay one hundred spirit coins per person, you want to go crazy for money?"
"Hmph, I don't even have a hundred spirit coins, what qualifications do I have to bid for the position of the county order. This is Xu Xiangtian's order from Xu Gongzi, and he has the ability to get angry at Xu Gongzi. ”
The gatekeeper quarreled with other family members, it seems that the Xu family is determined to win the position of the county order, Xu Xiangtian has even done tricks, one hundred spirit coins entry money, not many people can afford it, even if it is paid, it will become the Xu family's money for bidding for the county order. And those who just want to bid for the position of the presiding judge are even more complaining, and this entry money will soon be able to buy a presiding judge anywhere else.
The door is getting more and more chaotic, don't pay the money, the heavily armed gatekeeper just doesn't let people in, and the auction will end at noon, they are deliberately wasting time, no one participates, and the Xu family naturally swallowed both positions.
Of course Li Lei couldn't let them get their way, he had just been molested by the woman in Xianfang before, and he was in a bad mood, and he had long been fighting with the Xu family, and Ding Sijia and five foxes separated the crowd, allowing Li Lei to come closer.
The ten people guarding the door are all spiritual scholars, these people are all limited in the level of spiritual roots, and it is difficult to enter the cultivation realm at the end, so they take refuge in some families to eat, the Xu family, which originally belonged to a small family, does not have this qualification, but they can't stand the fact that there is a promising son, and they are all rushing to Xu Xiangtian. Seeing that most of the people in front of him were mortals, they were all arrogant, but when Li Lei got closer, they were all dumbfounded, and they knew that this guy couldn't afford to mess with him. Not only because of his identity, but also because of him, Xu Xiangtian's several outer disciples of the Heavenly Dragon Sect guards, inexplicably evaporated from the world.
"Li Tian punishes please~"
didn't dare to ask him for entry money, and even Ding Sijia and Wu, who were following him, didn't dare to ask for it, and the ten people dodged the passage and hurriedly let the evil star in, but Li Lei just wanted to find something to make the Xu family disgusted again, and glanced at Ding Siyi.
Ding Si comprehended, and lifted up the big money bag hanging on his waist, which was full of the five hundred crystal coins that Li Lei had given him at the beginning, and threw them into the arms of the gatekeeper.
When I opened the money bag, I saw that it was all crystal coins, and the three of them knew each other so well that the ten gatekeepers were stunned, and then they didn't say anything more with a smile on their faces, and watched the three of them swagger in, but in a word, their faces all changed.
"Big brother~ The money bag you asked me to keep was stolen, it was five hundred crystal coins, according to the law of the dragon, it was enough to be cut in half, let's go find it." ”
"Huh~ Isn't the money bag that the gatekeeper is ours?"
Ding Sijia and Wu cooperated tacitly, and Li Lei smiled gloomily, suggesting that the two of them should find a safe place to hide first, and turned their heads and walked towards the gatekeeper holding the money bag with a hideous face.
"He gave it to me, and I gave it back to you. ”
The gatekeeper shouted and hurriedly threw the money bag to Li Lei, Li Lei threw it into the storage ring, his footsteps still did not stop, and one sentence made the gatekeeper even more dumbfounded.
"What about my 500 crystals? You are so daring, you dare to steal my money, you should be punished. ”
"I Didn't Just Happen"
"Poof~"
Before he finished speaking, the sword flashed, and blood spurted out from his throat, and the crowd was immediately in chaos, although the law was only established for the weak, but this Li Lei, as the Heavenly Dragon Sect's Heavenly Punishment, was too lawless, and he killed people in broad daylight, and he killed unprepared formal monks. But that's just the beginning.
"Who did he give my 500 crystals? ”
It was obvious that he was already finding fault, when Li Lei raised the knife and looked at the other gatekeepers fiercely, the first reaction of these people was how far to run and how far they ran, Li Lei might be fine if he killed them, but if they killed Li Lei, they would definitely be hunted down by the Heavenly Dragon Sect.
The gatekeeper ran away, leaving only the dead corpse in the center of the gate, Li Lei bent down to pick up his weapon, threw it into the storage ring with his ghost head knife, and then grinned at the various family members outside the door.
"Okay, the flies are gone, let's go in and watch the fun. ”
After finishing speaking, he ignored the crowd and turned around and walked in, the members of the various families glanced at each other, and then someone took the lead and rushed in, although Xu Xiangtian of the Xu family is not easy to mess with, but as long as he bids for the county order or the chief judge, even if he is a member of the Tianlong Sect, he does not dare to blatantly look for trouble, the canons of the Tianlong Sect are even more cruel than the laws of the Tianlong.
But there are still some people who see that something is wrong, and guess that it must be the dispute between Li Tianzhi and the Xu family in the end, but they also followed in with an attitude of watching the excitement, no matter who of the two of them is unlucky, it is a happy thing to see.
It seems that the Xu family has regarded this place as their own place, and in the future, it will also become a county office, and it will be the office and residence of the county order.
A group of people went to the main hall in a mess, and the Xu family, who had already received the news that Li Lei was making trouble, a large number of family members and guards surrounded them with weapons, but they were dismissed by Xu Xiangtian, and now it is meaningless to turn his face with Li Lei, and the most important thing is to let his father Xu Bao successfully get the position of county order.
People entered the hall and sat down, the Xu family didn't even prepare tea, Xu Xiangtian sat at the top table and then announced the start of the auction, in his opinion, the two positions of the Xu family were captured, as long as a few people couldn't afford to pay a high price, anyway, only a small part of it was handed over to the treasury, most of it was handed over to the Tianlong Sect, and he had the support of his master, and that little money was nothing.
"Slow, I have something to say, your Xu family stole my 500 crystal coins, you must give me an explanation, and all of you here are my witnesses. ”
"You put"
Li Lei began to find fault again, Xu Bao stood up and pointed at him and was about to scold, but Xu Xiangtian was signaled by Xu Xiangtian to shut up, don't let Li Lei find an excuse to make things bigger.
"It's just five hundred crystal coins, this little money is not in the eyes of the Xu family, if you want to blackmail me, I will give it to you immediately." ”
"Then you give it to me, I'm not blackmailing, I just want my money back. ”
Li Lei stretched out his hand shamelessly, five hundred crystal coins were enough to make some small families with little strength go bankrupt immediately, but Xu Xiangtian was a disciple of the elders of the Heavenly Dragon Sect, so there was absolutely no problem.
Unexpectedly, Li Lei really reached out to ask for it, Xu Xiangtian jumped on his forehead, touched the storage ring, counted out five hundred crystal coins and threw them to Li Lei, and gave his money to the enemy, which made him feel distressed. But now I know that this Li Lei seems to have a good relationship with several apprentices in charge, and the hatred has long been buried in his heart, and he will slowly look for opportunities in the future.
Put away the crystal coins, Li Lei squinted his eyes and stopped talking, laughing at how they were bidding, seeing that he was not making trouble, Xu Xiangtian also let out a sigh of relief, and opened his mouth loudly.
"Now first bid for the position of the chief judge in the west of the city, and whoever bids first. ”
"Ten million taels of gold. ”
Xu Bao opened his mouth impatiently, and the appearance of wealth shocked the people who came to participate in the auction, a presiding judge, and he had to be constrained by the county order, where is it worth such a big price, and he has to let future generations work for several lifetimes to get the money back.
The scene was silent, Ding Sijia Wu looked at Li Lei, Li Lei's faint smile reassured them, the two of them clasped their hands on their chests and stopped talking, and they also squinted their eyes when they learned from Li Lei's appearance.
Seeing that no one was competing, Xu Bao was very satisfied, this position was prepared for one of his brothers, with this position he could spend his life rich and rich, and he could also benefit his children and grandchildren.
"No one bids again, and the position of the chief judge belongs to the Xu family. Bid for the prefectural order below. ”
After speaking, he glanced at Ding Sijia and Wu, these two people are already regarded as Li Lei's lackeys, and when Li Lei leaves, they will be disposed of.
"Fifty million taels of gold. ”
Xu Bao was the first to speak, although this price frightened a lot of small families, but a middle-class family member who came from the county government felt that it was acceptable, and he was about to open his mouth after thinking about the money he brought, Xu Bao spoke up again, and he raised the price.
"Eighty million taels. ”
This price is exactly the amount of all the money brought by this family member, he looked at Xu Bao in shock, how could he know how much he brought? Immediately remembering that the concubine who came with him was missing, he glared at Xu Bao hatefully and did not say anything more.
Xu Xiangtian glanced at his father with some complaints, what he did was a little too obvious, how could he let others make a bid, or a little more than this amount, the matter had come to this point and could only be stopped, seeing that no one was raising the price, he would immediately announce the winner of the county order.
"Wait, I have objections, I seriously doubt that Xu Bao can come up with so much money, this is 90 million taels of gold, equivalent to 9,000 crystal coins, if you want to buy land, you can buy most of the county. ”
Li Lei raised objections, and the members of the family also began to discuss, although they all came for this position to be hereditary and improve their status, but no one thought that it was worth such a big price.
"I'll have no money, look at what this is?"
Xu Bao stood up and came to Li Lei to spray wildly, waving a golden ticket in one hand and holding an object in the other. Li Lei's squinting eyes finally opened, and he stood up violently, grabbed the spirit stone, and asked hoarsely.
"Where did you get this thing? Don't you know that you have stolen Heavenly Dragon Sect items and stolen them all over the house? I confiscated the things and handed them over to the Chief Sect, and as a punishment, I also confiscated the golden ticket. ”
