There were many slaves in the slave market, and most people would be dazzled by the choices. Lou Qianxue and Lou Potian, based on their own vision, picked out a dozen strong guards and a cook with clear eyes.
"Pick another butler, and that should be about right."
Lou Potian was quite satisfied with this trip.
"Yeah." Lou Qianxue nodded: "I just heard someone say that there seems to be a slave auction in front. Should we go and take a look?"
"Well, it's good to be auctioned, no matter what."
Lou Qianxue and Lou Potian walked forward and saw a high platform. The bottom of the platform was full of people, all pointing at the stage.
"This Hu Laosan has sold slaves many times before. Why did he do something so stupid this time? Is he trying to ruin his reputation?"
"That's right. They just randomly picked a group of people and said they were from the Yueyan tribe. How could a Yueyan tribe member be auctioned in a place like this? Shouldn't they have been sent to the auction house and auctioned off as valuables long ago?"
"That's right! I don't know what he is thinking..."
"The Yueyan tribe?" A hint of surprise flashed across Lou Potian's eyes. "Is this the legendary tribe where both men and women are extremely beautiful?"
"Maybe." Lou Qianxue looked up at the stage and saw a dozen skinny, ragged boys and girls standing on the stage and shivering.
"Looking at their appearance, they are all very ordinary and don't look like they are from the Yueyan tribe." Lou Potian also took a few glances and made a conclusion.
Lou Qianxue frowned slightly but didn't say anything.
The crowd looked at the boys and girls and sighed, "Fortunately they are not from the Yueyan tribe, otherwise it would be terrible."
The Yueyan people are mysterious and hard to find, and their faces are very beautiful. Whenever one is discovered, he or she will be collected and played with as a toy...
"Everyone, listen to me, these are genuine Yueyan people. They just haven't grown up yet, so their looks are not obvious. In a few years, when they grow up, they will definitely be stunning beauties. To be honest, if I, Hu Laosan, was not short of money recently, I would not be willing to sell them."
"Tsk, Hu Laosan, you are a real Yueyan tribesman, why don't you send it to the auction house to sell it? Why are you bringing it here to cheat us? A child can only be sold for 30,000 taels of gold coins at most, but you want one million taels. Do you think we are all fools?"
“Alas.” Hu Lao San smiled bitterly: “The auction house also thought they looked too ordinary and didn’t believe they were from the Yueyan Clan… Everyone, I, Hu Lao San, have been doing business for such a long time, you should know that I, Hu Lao San, never lie… If one million taels is not enough, then 500,000 taels for one will do. If you can’t afford all of them, it’s not a loss to buy one.”
Lou Potian glanced at them for a few seconds, sighed, and said to Lou Qianxue, "Let's go."
"Grandpa." Lou Qianxue looked at Lou Potian: "Let's buy them."
"Hmm? Are you interested? Then buy it. However, a child here only costs tens of thousands at most. He wants half a million. It's a bit uneconomical..."
"It's okay, and..." Lou Qianxue looked at the dozen boys and girls again: "They are the real Yueyan tribe."
"!" Lou Potian took a breath of cold air, and before he could come back to his senses...
"Five hundred thousand gold coins each, I want them all." Lou Qianxue said calmly.
Wow!
Everyone in the audience was shocked.
Everyone looked at Lou Qianxue: "Is this girl rich and stupid?"
“I bought all of them…”
"Five hundred thousand gold coins for each, eighteen of them, that's nine million gold coins!!! Nearly ten million gold coins, to buy a few skinny little kids, is she crazy?"
