Old Man Qian was so angry that his age spots trembled. He glared at the eldest young master of the Liang family coldly with sinister eyes and quoted: "Three hundred taels!"
The laughter gradually weakened
Don't say three hundred taels. In fact, one hundred taels is already a very high price.
In ancient times, one penny could buy two steamed buns, and one thousand penny could be exchanged for one sling of copper coins. One hundred taels of silver could be exchanged for one thousand five hundred penny coins.
Three hundred taels, in ancient times, could save ordinary people from working for three or four generations.
"Four hundred taels!" Someone suddenly called out in the corner.
"Four hundred and fifty taels!" The eldest young man of the Liang family seemed bound to win.
Old Man Qian's eyes turned red, and he stretched out his five deformed fingers tremblingly: "Five hundred taels!"
Suddenly, the audience became noisy
Mr. Liang snorted and sat back on his chair to see that no one was competing with Old Man Qian anymore.
Mo Xiaohuan stood upstairs, and suddenly she felt a cold gaze from the audience, with sharp hatred, which seemed to tear her into pieces.
"Is there anyone else who wants to bid?" Huan Pei asked.
The audience was completely silent
"Since no one is bidding anymore, then tonight Miss Qing will..."
"One thousand taels"
Someone called out a number at the entrance
Everyone looked over and saw that he was an elegant young man with a handsome face and a noble air.
The man was dressed in white, and the corners of his clothes were stained with dust, as if he had been traveling for days and had no time to change.
Mo Xiaohuan looked at the door and saw that it was Lin Muxiao, Prince of Daliang!
Why is he back again!
He actually came to rescue himself!
Huan Pei didn't seem to expect that the visitor was Lin Muxiao. She naturally knew Lin Muxiao, but Lin Muxiao had never seen her true face.
"This distinguished guest" Huan Pei smiled, "If you can pay one thousand taels in cash, then Miss Qing will be yours."
"Of course" Lin Muxiao said lightly
The person following him took a step forward and put a box on the table. When the box was opened, a dazzling silver light appeared.
"ah……"
Everyone opened their mouths as if they had eaten eggs
This is real gold and silver!
Mo Xiaohuan stood upstairs and suddenly felt a dull pain in her abdomen.
There were so many turbulent emotions in her heart that she couldn't bear it.
"Our young master offers a thousand taels of gold," a slightly elongated voice reported.
Hearing this voice, Huan Pei's face turned pale instantly.
Mo Xiaohuan also concentrated on looking at the private room where the price was quoted.
This private room has always been quiet, and the curtains are hung. Mo Xiaohuan didn't know that there was someone inside.
And now it seems that the person she was counting on is finally going to show up.
Because such a long and thin voice can only come from a eunuch, and the only one who walks with a eunuch beside him must be the emperor.
Lin Muxiao seemed to have discovered the problem. He glanced at the people in the private room and there was a hint of regret in his expression.
When Lin Muxiao looked at Mo Xiaohuan, his guilt was beyond words.
Mo Xiaohuan shook his head in the direction of Lin Muxiao, telling him not to confront the emperor of Dongling head-on.
Lin Muxiao came all the way here, no matter how much money he brought with him, no matter how much money he took out from the bank account in this city, he could not be as rich as the emperor of his country.
Huan Pei had finally seen the occasion and had already resumed his welcoming smile: "This guest officer is really generous, I don't know what to call him?"
The father-in-law at the door of the private room glanced at Huanpei, and replied with disdain in a thin voice: "Isn't Mother Qing only recognizing money and not people? Don't ask more questions that you shouldn't ask."
