Anyone else would be so surprised.
An Zhiyi has always been so demure and indifferent, as if she was a fairy who accidentally fell into the mortal world and was tainted by the slightest trace of earthly fate. How could she meet him here?
In sharp contrast to her was the luxurious and vast scene around her.
At this moment, the flower boat slowly stopped and stood in the middle of the Qinglou River. The sound of the piano also stopped immediately, and the dancing girls retreated quickly.
At this time, a charming woman who was over forty years old, still well-maintained and with a beautiful face walked over, twisting her waist like a snake and walked to the front of the boat.
"Gentlemen, today my young lady has given out five places. The one with the highest price can get on the boat and chat. The winner can spend the spring night with my young lady. Please do your best to have a chance to see my young lady's true face. .”
"One moment of spring night is worth a thousand pieces of gold, everyone, please!"
Hearing these words, all the men went completely crazy, and each one let out wild beast-like cheers.
One of the richly dressed young men jumped out first, as if he had been given a shot of blood, "I'll give you ten thousand taels!"
"Wow!"
When they heard the price of ten thousand taels of silver, many people felt as if they were struck by lightning and were completely silent.
This was too cruel, it only cost ten thousand taels, and almost 80% of the people present were killed in half.
Although the young masters who can come to Qinglou River are all rich or noble, these ten thousand taels are not small money.
Everyone thought that 10,000 taels was the peak, but suddenly a chubby, freckle-faced fat man shouted at the top of his voice, "I'm offering 15,000 taels. I am the second son of the Wuyang Hou family. Let's see who dares to follow me." I’ll grab it!”
This person directly used his family background to threaten, and many wealthy businessmen had no choice but to give up their candidacy after hearing this. Although he was only a marquis, he was also a powerful person and could not be offended!
"It turns out that he is the second son of the Wuyang Hou family and the legitimate son of the Qingping Hou family. I am offering you twenty thousand taels!" This young master is also a son of the Marquis family and is also the legitimate son, so he does his duty.
"I'm sorry, you two. I am a descendant of the Yang family, a third-grade general. I will pay you 30,000 taels!"
"I am a descendant of the Lu family of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division. I will give you fifty thousand taels. Don't show off to me. The most important thing for me, the Lu family, is money!"
"..."
Prices are rising rapidly, and the bidders are either children of powerful people or children of aristocratic families. Ordinary people have money and are not even qualified to bid.
Listening to the increasingly crazy bidding, Li Yi was not only surprised, but also angry!
In the same world, some people shed all their blood and tears just for a mouthful of food and clothing, but some people can offer thousands of gold just for a beautiful girl's smile.
Li Yi frowned, his eyes filled with coldness. As the emperor of the Gale Dynasty, he blamed himself unspeakably and said, "I am so ashamed!"
With the rounds of bidding, less than half an hour passed, and the price rose to one hundred thousand taels!
This was just to say a word to that fox demon woman.
If you do something else, I'm afraid it's more than that.
One hundred thousand taels of snowflake silver!
What is this concept?
In the capital, the place with the highest prices in the Gale Dynasty, it was enough to feed tens of thousands of households for a month, and one hundred taels of silver in the Eight Great Alleys could redeem the life of a single shepherd.
Who is this fox demon woman?
Is it possible that the whole body is studded with diamonds, or is the seam below made of gold and jade?
Listening to the roaring cheers around him, Li Yi became more and more curious as to what kind of woman could be so charming that it drove people crazy.
"Qinglong, let's get a spot too!" Li Yi took a sip of tea and became more and more curious. He not only wanted to see the true appearance of the fox demon woman, but also wanted to take the opportunity to find out why so many rich men drowned here.
"Your Majesty, this...what should I do? The price is too high!" Qinglong looked confused.
Li Yi closed his eyes to rest and said coldly: "I don't care how much money I have, I only want one spot."
"Don't forget that the purpose of our coming to the Qinglou River today is not just to play. That boy Wei Zhou will definitely participate. I also want to pick something from his mouth."
"Remember, I don't care how much money you spend, as long as you get on the boat!"
Qinglong nodded. He had been poor since he was a child. How had he ever seen so much money? All he could think about was how much rice the money could exchange for.
Why don't you give it to a brothel girl and buy it as rice?
Cao Qingyan glanced around contemptuously, "Your Majesty, look at these people. How dare they be so arrogant and domineering, the sons of a young prince. If you reveal your identity, you won't scare them all to death!"
Li Yi raised his eyebrows, "I don't know if it scares you to death, but I know that if your identity is exposed, all our previous efforts will be wasted."
Soon, four of the five places had been reserved, all of them were rich and powerful young masters. However, the identities of these people were very mysterious, and Li Yi did not find out. As for Wei Zhou, he never showed up.
As for the last quota, all the young masters from the aristocratic families went crazy. The fight was so crazy that the price was raised to 200,000 taels.
When the price came out, even the children of the aristocratic families sighed helplessly and had to give up.
This price is really too high, ridiculously high.
"Two hundred thousand once, two hundred thousand twice..." The charming woman over forty twisted her waist and waved her flower fan. Her eyes were full of pride and joy. Tonight, she hit a record high again, twenty. Wan Liang!
It seems like it’s almost time to make a decision.
Suddenly, a dark-faced man did not keep a low profile at all. He stood up and shouted around: "Hahaha, this last spot belongs to me!"
The price was too high, and the young men around him shook their heads helplessly and sighed, even if they had the will to do so.
At this moment, a powerful voice spread throughout the brothel river.
"My young master wants the last spot!"
"No matter how much money the competitors offer, my young master will add one or two more!"
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was shocked, and then panicked, looking around to find who it was?
Two hundred thousand is already a record high. After all, the first four highest quotas are only 150,000, and the last one directly exceeds two hundred thousand.
I wonder whose son he is?
"It's him, the young man on the big ship!" Someone discovered that the voice came from the big ship.
"Really? Where is it?"
"That big ship!"
Everyone's eyes were drawn to the big ship. There were countless people on the huge first floor, but there were only a few people on the second floor. There was only a young man sitting on a chair, who was particularly related to the ship. Different.
"I don't know whose son he is?"
"I don't know, I haven't seen him before, and I haven't reported his family background. He must be the son of a wealthy businessman from other places?"
"Huh, he's still too young. He's going to be in trouble this time. He offended a powerful kid from the capital. No matter how rich he is, he can't leave alive!"
"I think this kid from a wealthy businessman from other places doesn't have that much money at all. If he can't get the money soon, he will definitely die in a worse way!"
"..."
The one who is most angry now is probably the black-faced man. This man has a sinister face and fierce eyes. Looking at the group of younger brothers behind him, they all have ferocious expressions. I am afraid they are definitely not kind people.
"Boy, whose family are you from? Do you know my name? How dare you take my place? I'm tired of life. Are they deliberately trying to cause trouble for me to shake Guandong!"
People around were shocked when they heard Hei Lian claiming to be Zhen Guandong, "Oh no, that kid is in big trouble. This Black Face is a famous bully in the capital. Zhen Guandong is famous for being ruthless. Even the people in the Yamen are... Give him three points of noodles."
"That's going to be a good show. Zhen Guandong has always been a master who eats people without spitting out their bones. Today, he was refuted by others. How can he swallow this bad breath!"
"Just in time, let's take a look at the excitement and make a bet. How can that kid be killed by the earthquake in Guandong?"
"Drown!"
"I think my neck will be broken alive!"
"..."
Faced with the threat of shaking Guandong Chi Guoguo, Li Yi smiled coldly and said lightly: "If you don't accept it, you can increase the price, but I'm not stopping you!"
Zhen Guandong became furious and cursed angrily: "Boy, how dare you not give me Zhen Guandong face!"
"Who are you? You dare to save face in front of me. If you don't want to die, get out of here!"
Hearing this, everyone took a breath of cold air. This is too domineering and arrogant!
Zhen Guandong was completely irritated and yelled, "Boy, you are seeking death. If I don't kill you today, I will write it backwards to Zhen Guandong!"
"Brothers, copy the guy and kill him!"
Dozens of strong men quickly boarded Li Yi's ship. The alarmed servants on the second floor were so frightened that they rushed straight to the third floor.
Li Yi is very low-key, but that doesn't mean he's easy to bully. These bastards are used to bullying men and women, and they actually bullied Li Yi. Aren't they tired of living?
"Boy, today I will let you know how many eyes Lord Ma has!" Zhen Guandong, who was on the third floor, roared and rushed towards Li Yi.
Li Yi just smiled softly, narrowed his eyes, and uttered three words on his thin lips: "Get him!"
