Chapter 88: Seizing the Purple Pearl

ory.When she reached the gate, the maidservant had disappeared. All that remained on the ground was a tray with two cold overnight steamed buns. Nothing else.This steamed bun, if given to the original...The young servant was unnerved by Qing Xuan's fox-like gaze.

The woman before us is a distinguished guest, and we must treat her with the utmost respect.

The little servant swallowed nervously. "Honorable guest, is there anything you need"

Qingxuan pondered for a moment before voicing her confusion: "You said just now that the item you have your eye on can be obtained by simply bidding at the starting price. But what about after you get it What needs to be done afterward"

Attendant: "What... what needs to be done next"

Qingxuan's words left the maidservant speechless.

Qingxuan responded with a "Hmm," saying, "There's no such thing as getting something for nothing in this world. So I want to know what kind of price I'll have to pay after buying it at the starting price."

A flicker of understanding crossed the maidservant's eyes.

The little servant immediately explained, "Your esteemed guest need not worry. We have no other requirements. We only need your esteemed guest to make an opening bid. There is no other price."

The maidservant's explanation only confused Qingxuan further.

Qingxuan: "There's really such a good thing It wouldn't be that it's a good thing on the surface, but secretly trying to screw me over, would it"

As soon as Qingxuan's voice sounded, the maidservant was frightened and waved her hands repeatedly.

"Dear guest, we would never do such a dishonorable thing. I swear to heaven. If I have uttered even half a lie, may I be struck by lightning and meet a terrible end!"

Seeing the maidservant swear an oath, Qingxuan then felt at ease.

Perhaps because Namgung Yeop was a very distinguished guest here, a VIP of the highest order, that's why he received such special treatment.

No matter what, it's best to buy things at the lowest price.

As for why this happened, you'll know if you ask Nangong Ye later.

"Noble guest, would you have me attend to you within this elegant chamber, or shall I wait for you at the entrance"

Qingxuan: "Wait at the door. I'll call you when I see something I want to take pictures of."

After the servant left, Yun Sheng took off his mask and fixed his gaze on the pastries on the table, which were emitting various scents.

The snacks on the table looked delicious and appetizing. Even Qingxuan was drooling, let alone Yunsheng.

Just now at Wuweiju, we were originally going to eat roast chicken with Yunsheng, but we didn't get to eat anything, and after all that trouble, Yunsheng was already starving.

Have a little snack.

Seeing the clouds, Sheng was so hungry that he couldn't believe it. Qing Xuan poured a cup of tea for Sheng and asked him to come down and have some snacks.

And she, meanwhile, ate her sweetmeats leisurely while looking over the list of items the maid had just brought her.

She came here primarily to buy a good weapon for Nangong Ye, and the other purpose was to buy as many herbs that could replenish his body as possible to take back.

Thinking about this, Qingxuan began to search for these two things on the price list.

Suddenly, a domineering and familiar voice came from the private room on the second floor downstairs.

"One thousand taels!"

Qingxuan stopped holding the object in her hand.

This is Ling's voice!

Unexpectedly, after leaving Wǔwèijū, these two people ended up at the black market.

"Purple luminous pearl, one thousand taels."

Qingxuan peered out through the window, draped with curtains. On the table sat a pearl emitting a purple glow.

"One thousand one hundred taels!"

Lingruo: "Two thousand taels!"

"Two thousand one hundred and two taels."

Two thousand five hundred ounces.

Lingruo: "Three thousand two."

Qingxuan was twirling a teacup in her hands.

It seems like Ling Ru is determined to get this Zi Ming Zhu.

Qingxuan immediately ordered the guard at the door to stand down.

"If it's currently being auctioned, could I still get it at a lower price"

Qingxuan only asked with a try-it-out attitude, but unexpectedly received an affirmative response.

"Attendant: 'In this elegant hall, if something catches your eye, no matter what it is or whether it's currently being auctioned, you can acquire it at a lower price.'"

This is so awesome!

If Qingxuan hadn't wanted to be too ruthless, she really would have bought back everything this person had on sale at a low price and taken it back to the palace.

Wait a minute!

Qing Xuan turned over the thought in her mind. Could it be... that all the low-key treasures in Nangong Ye's family were bought from this black market at a low price

Qingxuan twitched the corner of her mouth and told the maidservant, "I want this Zimingzhu."

Although it was a low-priced item, during the bidding, it was the people from Shao Hua Ya Jian who called out the prices.

People think that those who can afford to stay in the elegant Shaohua Pavilion must be either wealthy or noble, so they are willing to pay the highest price.

Ling had already bid four thousand taels for this pearl, which emitted a faint purple glow.

After the maidservant explained the rules, Qingxuan casually shouted, "Ten thousand taels!"ts.Ultimately, Gu Changqing beheaded Cao Shen's head, and this battle finally came to an end.Carrying Cao Shen's severed head, Gu Changqing casually unleashed a burst of primordial fire, incinerating...
